Chi Jiao nodded and took out the item Quan Jue had mentioned from her pocket.
It was a small koi-shaped sachet.
“Brother Quan, what is this thing?” Chi Jiao asked curiously.
She knew that Quan Jue didn’t believe in lucky symbols.
That was why she couldn’t figure out why he gave her this.
“Give me a call when you’re in danger. This thing can make me appear beside you immediately,” Quan Jue whispered.
“Is it that amazing?” Chi Jiao widened her eyes in disbelief.
Quan Jue smiled and nodded.
“Then, I have to keep it well.” Chi Jiao kissed the sachet before putting it back into her pocket.
Chi Jiao chatted as she ate. After eating, she hung up the video call and went to take a shower.
Other than accommodation, the farmhouse also provided delicious food.
There was a shelter in the farm’s small courtyard with a few tables underneath.
As the entire farmhouse had already been booked by the production team for tonight, there was no one else at dinner.
Jiang Xiaoli found the owner of this farmhouse and generously gave him 5,000 yuan to prepare some good food and wine for her.
After receiving the money, the boss quickly prepared a variety of good food for her.
There was their village’s special chicken stew, eight kinds of appetizers, and a bottle of their village’s special brew.
The fragrance of the food permeated the air as Jiang Xiaoli sat alone at the table and ate heartily.
Ina room not far away, two pairs of eyes landed on her.
“Brother Xiong, why are you staring at that girl? Have you fallen for her?” Zheng Jing stood by the window with Xiong Junxi and asked him sweetly, “I signed up for this show because of you. Can’t you look at me?”
“We broke up a long time ago. Can you stop pestering me?” Xiong Junxi pushed her aside and strode out of the room.
Jiang Xiaoli was munching on a drumstick as she drank the wine.
She didn’t notice that Xiong Junxi had walked over.
Xiong Junxi looked at Jiang Xiaoli’s oily mouth and couldn’t help swallowing.
Zheng Jing was wrong. He had been looking at the food on the table instead of Jiang Xiaoli.
He had only eaten a bowl of instant noodles tonight and nothing else.
Seeing Jiang Xiaoli eating so happily alone, his appetite was aroused.
“Ahem…” Xiong Junxi cleared his throat, successfully attracting her attention.
Jiang Xiaoli looked up at the man opposite her.
“What’s the matter?”
“Girl, why are you eating alone? Where’s your companion?” Xiong Junxi asked with a smile.
“She’s in her room. Go to her room if you want to find her,” Jiang Xiaoli said coldly.
“Tm not looking for her. I’m looking for you.” Xiong Junxi gave what he believed was a charming smile as he looked meaningfully at her.
Jiang Xiaoli was confused.
“What do you want from me?”
“Nothing. I just feel that you look like an old friend of mine,” Xiong Junxi said slowly.
Jiang Xiaoli was still confused.
“But she’s not as beautiful as you. Your eyes are prettier,” Xiong Junxi said gently.
Hearing the praise, Jiang Xiaoli’s heart skipped a beat. Her eyes revealed a hint of smugness… “Who is this old friend you’re talking about?”
