"Thankfully, it didn't take long," Quan Jue said. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the forest not far away. When he saw Jiang Xiaoli walking out of the forest while covering half of her face, a dark glint flashed across his eyes.
Chi Jiao's gaze was also on Jiang Xiaoli. She watched as Jiang Xiaoli walked up to Jiang Shen, who was taking photos at the entrance of Glazed Tile Temple. She pointed at her face and said something to him. Immediately after, Jiang Shen nodded with a serious expression.
Then, Jiang Shen led Jiang Xiaoli to Chi Jiao and Quan Jue's side.
"Miss Chi Jiao, let's go back. Xiaoli's face is allergic," Jiang Shen said.
Quan Jue's gaze landed on her face.
Most of her face was red and swollen. It didn't look like an allergy, but more like someone had slapped her.
Quan Jue's thin lips curled up slightly, but his smile was fleeting.
— It seemed like his delicate girl was up to no good again.
Chi Jiao looked at her face and revealed a surprised expression. "Sister Xiaoli, your face looks so serious. There are a lot of flowers and plants in this mountain. It's indeed easy to get allergic if you touch them randomly." “
She was sure that Jiang Xiaoli would never say that her face had been beaten up like this for the sake of her pride.
Jiang Xiaoli indeed didn't disappoint her.
When Jiang Xiaoli saw that Chi Jiao was still pretending that it had nothing to do with her, she felt like her liver was about to explode from anger.
— This little b * tch is so good at acting. It's a waste of her talent if she doesn't enter the entertainment industry!

After returning to the house halfway up the mountain, Jiang Shen bade farewell to Ou Zhenglin and Liu Ruhua with Jiang Xiaoli and left.
Shen Liao and Gu Xian had also returned. The two of them were busy decorating the courtyard.
Red lanterns were hung in the courtyard and couplets were pasted on the door. The festive feeling of the new year was immediately felt.
Yan Zhengchen and Gong Lu were in charge of helping Uncle Chen clean up.
"Grandma, what can Brother Quan and I do for you?" Chi Jiao hugged Liu Ruhua's arm and asked sweetly.
"The two of you don't have to do anything. Go and rest," Liu Ruhua said with a smile.
"You should let us do something. There's no point in doing nothing," Chi Jiao said.
Seeing her insistence, Ou Zhenglin coughed dryly and said, "Then, let's go make dumplings together."
Chi Jiao felt that this was a good idea. She turned to look at Quan Jue with sparkling eyes. "Brother Quan, let's help Grandpa and Grandma make dumplings."
She had never had the experience of making dumplings with the person she liked during the New Year.
It wasn't an excessive request, so Quan Jue nodded with a smile.
Time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, the sky had turned dark.
Liu Ruhua had liked to cook since she was young. She had even specially studied the palace dishes of ancient times. She had personally prepared the New Year's Eve dinner and had even specially prepared a few palace dishes. Together with the dishes that Chi Jiao and the other juniors liked to eat, she had prepared a huge table.
Chi Yexi also rushed back before the New Year's Eve dinner started. The round table was filled with people, and the dining hall was unprecedentedly lively.
This was the first time Chi Yexi had seen Quan Jue. He was at the peak of his career and was the busiest.
He had thought about chatting with Quan Jue many times, but he didn't have the time.
Although he didn't like Quan Jue, Chi Yexi didn't show it in front of so many people.
The lively New Year's Eve dinner was held in a very pleasant atmosphere.
