Chapter 1255: Chapter 1256: Are You Going on a Research Trip?

Even Chiang Xiao and Wang Yi, women themselves, would sometimes be stunned by her grace.

Some charms are etched into one’s bones, revealing themselves in a mere gesture.

"We’ve already ordered the food, see if there’s anything else you’d like to eat, and I’ll call the waiter to add to the order," Chen Yin handed the menu to her.

Xu Yiqiu didn’t take it, but softly said to Chen Yin, "Help me order some light vegetarian dishes, please."

"Okay."

Chen Yin ordered two dishes for her.

Xu Yiqiu looked towards Chiang Xiao and asked, "Xiao Chiang, have you got any new paintings recently?"

"Nothing but some flowers and plants," Chiang Xiao said. "Has Mr. Xu been staying in the country recently?"

"Yes, the art institute invited me over for a plein air painting event. We’re going to Province X for half a month with a group of twelve people. Xiao Chiang, are you interested in joining us?"

Perhaps because of Chen Kaijin’s previous visit, now whenever she heard of Province X, Chiang Xiao felt a bit sensitive.

"Province X? Why did you think of going to Province X?"

Xu Yiqiu chuckled and said, "I’ve heard that there is a Hundred Flowers Valley in Province X. When spring and summer arrive, the valley is a spectacular sea of blooming beauty. There’s also a small mountain village in the valley with unique architecture, and the villagers produce a kind of hand-woven fabric that’s naturally uncolored and brimming with primitive charm. We’re all quite interested in it. On our way into the mountains, we plan to stay in the village, observe their weaving techniques, and taste their mountain food—it should be quite an experience."

Chiang Xiao felt a stir in her heart.

If it weren’t for being in Province X, she would have been quite interested in such a trip.

Moreover, she was now quite fond of the mountains, thinking that treasure hunting was an interesting activity.

Whether it was hunting or harvesting medicinal herbs, she felt it would be a great gain.

However, she wasn’t even sure if Deng Qingjiang was in Province X or what he was doing there.

As she thought of Deng Qingjiang and Chen Kaijin, Chiang Xiao suddenly felt that maybe she could take the initiative. Before Deng Qingjiang could find a powerful backer, she could crush him thoroughly.

Yet, if he hadn’t lived that affluent life he had in the past, better than many, and she crushed him now, it might not cause him great pain.

She wanted to wait until he reached a certain height, then viciously pull him down and trample him into the mire.

She wanted Deng Qingjiang to suffer day and night, living a life worse than death.

"I actually think this trip sounds quite nice," Chen Yin said. "I’m really interested, Teacher Xu, do you think I could join you?"

Wang Yi was taken aback and blurted out, "Chen Yin, you can’t go!"

Half a month away with Xu Yiqiu, why did she feel so uncomfortable about it?

Realizing she might have overreacted, Wang Yi quickly added, "They’re all going for plein air painting, and they all know how to paint, what would you do there?"

Chen Yin said, "I’m interested in the hand-woven fabrics from that mountain village. I know many mountain villagers live in poor conditions. If their hand-woven fabrics are good, then I might consider buying them to find a market."

Xu Yiqiu’s eyes lit up, "Chen Yin, that’s a great idea! Not only could you expand your business horizons, but you could also help the villagers of that mountain village. Moreover, you can showcase the wisdom belonging to the working people. It’s a win-win-win situation, a very meaningful thing to do! Anyway, I’ll definitely be able to secure a spot for you!"

"No worries, Teacher Xu, if it can’t be arranged, I can cover the expenses for this trip. In that case, there should be no problem."
