Gu Zhiqi’s answer left Mr. Jiang momentarily stunned.
Seeing that Gu Zhiqi didn’t even deign to look at him properly, a flicker of annoyance passed through Mr. Jiang’s eyes. However, it lasted only a moment before he composed himself and then, squinting his eyes, continued observing Gu Zhiqi, "Do you know that fighting and causing trouble is prohibited in Chinatown?"
"Is that so?" This time, Gu Zhiqi raised her gaze, looking at Mr. Jiang languidly, with a casual tone.
Now that he had a full view of Gu Zhiqi’s appearance, Mr. Jiang’s eyes were tinged with amazement, and he was momentarily transfixed.
Although Mr. Jiang was from Xia Country, his aesthetics were influenced by having lived in Soraya for a long time, leading to a more internationalized sense of beauty.
He had seen many of Xia Country’s top celebrities online, and he thought they were just so-so.
But the girl in front of him, her beauty, no matter the aesthetic, seemed to be at the pinnacle of perfection.
The girl’s appearance was stunningly beautiful, and her aura was equally exceptional. However, despite a beauty that was striking at first sight, Mr. Jiang couldn’t shake the illusion that if one didn’t look intentionally, her presence seemed surprisingly unobtrusive.
This feeling, he had experienced it before with Su Yunling.
Thinking of the way Su Yunling had looked at Gu Zhiqi earlier, Mr. Jiang narrowed his eyes.
"I am the administrator of the Ever Winning Army of Chinatown. Please answer my following questions truthfully." Having said this, Mr. Jiang started to ask without waiting for a reply, "Are you a resident of Chinatown, or a traveler?"
Hearing Mr. Jiang’s question, Xie Yann and Xu Qing’s expressions changed dramatically.
They naturally realized that Mr. Jiang was probing for Gu Zhiqi’s background.
"From where?" Mr. Jiang continued to inquire.
"Yan City Xie Family." Before Gu Zhiqi could finish, Xie Yann immediately interrupted him, then looked at Mr. Jiang and said, "She is my sister, our father is Xie Hong."
Suddenly gaining a brother, Gu Zhiqi glanced sideways at Xie Yann but didn’t say anything.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Jiang’s expression subtly changed, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Xie Yann, "You two are siblings?"
"Naturally." Xie Yann kept a straight face, meeting Mr. Jiang’s gaze, though his hands under the table were clenched tightly.
Mr. Jiang studied Xie Yann for several seconds, then turned his gaze back to Gu Zhiqi, "What’s your name?"
"Xie Zhizhi," Gu Zhiqi casually gave a false name.
Mr. Jiang, half-believing, half-doubting, didn’t press further. Continuing to ask would only raise suspicions, "Alright, let’s get back to the matter of your fight. The three of you, why did you hit my brother?"
Since they were ’siblings’, Mr. Jiang directly lumped the three of them together, changing the incident from Gu Zhiqi hitting his brother to the three of them hitting his brother.
"He looks like a punching bag, I just felt like hitting him," Gu Zhiqi replied nonchalantly, lifting her eyelids slightly.
The crowd "..." Awesome!
Xie Yann and Xu Qing covered their faces, Medicinal Pills.
At Gu Zhiqi’s words, Mr. Jiang’s face darkened instantly, "Young lady, if you don’t cooperate with the inquiry, then I’ll have no choice but to take you in for questioning at the military office."
"It was your brother who first started causing trouble on the street, and even knocked over my sister’s barbecue. They wanted to hit someone, so my sister stepped in," Xie Yann immediately spoke up upon hearing Mr. Jiang’s words, addressing him.
Listening to Xie Yann, Mr. Jiang sneered, "Just because they knocked over your barbecue, you resorted to violence? How is that different from picking a fight? Take them away," he said, and then looking at the trio, "You three better not resist. No matter how tough you are, you’re probably afraid of guns, right?"
At Mr. Jiang’s command, the uniformed Ever Winning Army didn’t move. Instead, it was Su Yunling, who had been quiet all along, that started to move. She walked unhurriedly to Gu Zhiqi’s table.
