Chapter 1855: Chapter 1791: Preparing to Steal the Spotlight

Meng Xinian pressed his thin lips together, watching her.

Chiang Xiao blinked at him, “Try it, and I’ll feel more at ease.”

“If anything goes wrong, tell me immediately,” Meng Xinian was originally truly against it, but he couldn’t resist her coquettish plea.

Chiang Xiao immediately nodded, then slipped into the space and dug out the ginseng shrouded in spirit mist.

The entire patch of Black Land trembled slightly, like a minor earthquake.

She looked towards the Bamboo Hut. The view of the Bamboo Hut became as blurred as a TV with intermittent signal before it cleared up.

Chiang Xiao stood up, moved around a bit, and didn’t feel anything wrong. She dashed into the Bamboo Hut, checked inside, and found nothing was missing or reduced.

She let out a sigh of relief in her heart and exited the space.

Meng Xinian was clenching his fists tightly, regretting not following in. If anything were to happen to Chiang Xiao in the space, he wouldn’t even know about it.

If something happened to her in there, how could he help?

For the first time, Meng Xinian felt an overwhelming fear of this feeling of helplessness.

Fortunately, Chiang Xiao appeared in an instant.

This feeling was still a bit hard for him to get used to, as suddenly there was a person appearing by his side, only to have been sitting on the branch a moment before.

Chiang Xiao looked at him joyfully and said, “Brother Xinian, nothing’s wrong with me. It seems that my body has already recovered fully. It’s not just because of those herbs. But, the space might still need the support of the herbs.”

Even though she pulled a ginseng, there’s still another ginseng and Lingzhi sustaining it, so the space was only momentarily unstable and then quickly restored.

This will do, as long as she doesn’t pull out the ginseng and Lingzhi, or at least keeps two planted there, the space won’t have any issues.

Knowing that her physical condition is truly getting better, she felt at ease.

Meng Xinian exhaled deeply, feeling that his palms were sweaty, “No problem at all?”

Chiang Xiao raised both hands, waved them, and nodded, “Yes, absolutely nothing. I still feel very spirited and strong.”

“Kitten, from now on, be cautious with those herbs.”

“Don’t worry.” Chiang Xiao brought out a steaming bowl of noodles from the empty space and handed it to him, “You eat first, and I’ll go plant the ginseng back.”

After she replanted the ginseng, she also brought out a bowl of noodles. The two indeed sat on the tree, eating noodles while watching the sunrise.

Capital City, Academy of Fine Arts.

Ye Wanqing dressed up beautifully today, though not overdressed, fearing that overly grand attire would make her seem too ostentatious, producing a negative effect.

So today, her outfit was beautiful yet understated, with a touch of careful finesse.

The idea was to impress at first glance, yet have people think her beauty is innate.

Deng Qingjiang had told her that the painting, once displayed, would definitely attract considerable attention. Since it was attributed to a first-year student of the academy, people would think this student has great talent.

Moreover, he provided a double safeguard; if the painting didn’t receive attention, he would act as a “supporter” to highlight it.

Even if no one buys it, he plans to purchase it on the spot to bolster her fame and influence.

Therefore, Ye Wanqing was mentally prepared to be in the spotlight today.

Her classmates came in batches to view the exhibition.

Jin Lei also came.
