Chapter 260 Apology
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but curl his lips and smile.

He seemed to have frightened the little monster.

Meng Jixi looked in the direction where Xiao Xiao's finger pointed, but apart from branches and leaves, he still... found nothing.

However, Meng Jixi looked at Xiao Xiao's eyes steadily for a while, and there was no trace of joking in his eyes.

This Master Xiao... is serious.

He really wanted him to apologize for this position.

Meng Jixi stared at that position for a long time with an uncertain expression, and finally made a "tsk" sound and turned to face Xiao Xiao. Even though his face was fierce, his words showed that he believed what Xiao Xiao meant, "Is it this direction? This position?"

Meng Jixi pointed to the location that Xiao Xiao had pointed to before.

It is a slanting branch, which looks a bit desolate because of the fallen leaves.

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao looked at the motionless baby spoon and nodded affirmatively to Meng Jixi.

"Brother Jixi?"

"Ah Xi?"

The Chi brothers and sisters looked at Meng Jixi with some disbelief. It was true that they believed in Master Xiao, but they did not expect that Meng Jixi would be so easily prepared to do what Master Xiao said.

They thought it would take some persuasion.

Chi Xiuchuan was even considering the possibility that he didn't know whether the other party would accept his apology.

But now Meng Jixi's performance made all their previous worries in vain.

For a moment, they were actually a little overwhelmed.

Meng Jixi glared at the two siblings, then looked at the slanted branch with a conflicted look on his face. It was really stupid to apologize to a branch that had nothing on it.

However, on the one hand, he didn't want to be hit for no reason again, and on the other hand, he also wanted to verify whether what Master Xiao said was correct.

Meng Jixi took a deep breath.

The Chi brothers and sisters looked at him nervously.

Meng Jixi opened his mouth slightly, and the Chi brothers and sisters' hearts were in their throats.

"Cough cough~"

Meng Jixi cleared his throat a few times, and the Chi brothers and sisters: "..."

Meng Jixi did not notice the speechless expressions of the Chi brothers and sisters. He looked around.

There was no one else around except them, and Meng Jixi breathed a sigh of relief with an imperceptible sense.

He took another deep breath and said, "I'm sorry."

Meng Jixi's voice was not loud, but it was particularly clear in the quiet and tense environment at this moment.

Now that he had said it, Meng Jixi might as well say a little more, "I didn't mean to hit you before. I'm sorry."

Although Meng Jixi tried his best to act as if nothing had happened, his expression still revealed a bit of embarrassment and uneasiness.

His eyes wandered a little, but finally he forced himself to fix on the slanting branch, pretending to study the patterns on it carefully.

Otherwise he wouldn't know where to focus his attention.

……

There was silence in the air.

The Chi brothers and sisters also looked nervously at Meng Jixi, then at the slanting branch.

I don’t know if it was their illusion, but they seemed to see the branch move?
The two of them subconsciously looked at each other, meeting each other's confused and disbelieving eyes.

Is that the wind? Or is it...

……

Meng Jixi's pupils suddenly shrank. Because he had been staring at the slanting branch without blinking, even if it was just a slight change, Meng Jixi still caught it clearly. The slanting branch did move.

Only that branch moved, and the branches next to it didn't shake at all.

Meng Jixi's eyes darkened, showing shock and confusion.

.......
While Meng Jixi was apologizing, Xiao Xiao kept looking at the baby spoon.

Maybe it was the first time that a certain little monster had been apologized to by a human. After a moment of stunned silence, the little monster's red eyes moved around in panic, appearing a little helpless.

He no longer had the arrogant attitude of smashing Meng Jixi's fruit as he did at the beginning.

The baby spoon flapped its wings subconsciously a few times, and its body was slightly lifted into the air, but in the next second it noticed Xiao Xiao's gaze coming straight at it, its expression froze, and its body suddenly dropped again.

The branches also swayed a little.

The leaves on it rub against each other, making a rustling sound.

The baby spoon didn't look at Xiao Xiao. It turned its head stiffly towards the human who seemed to be looking at it and apologizing to it.

The football that the human had kicked earlier happened to fly into the tree where it was at the time.

Seeing the football coming towards him, the baby spoon was caught off guard and was scared to death.

The football almost missed it!

This was because it turned its body at the last moment, otherwise it would have been hit by the football!

However, the strong wind carried by the ball also made it look very embarrassed.

It fell headfirst to the ground!
The pain is secondary. After all, even if its demonic power is not strong, such a small height will only cause it some flesh wounds.

But it still remembers that its heart was beating so fast at that time, faster than it had ever been!
Even now when I think about it I still feel a bit scared.

So Yingshao, who had finally recovered from his shock, became angry and held a grudge against Meng Jixi who came later to pick up the ball.

Meng Jixi began to have fruits thrown at him from time to time.

However, now that this human had apologized to it, seeing how sincere this human was, Baby Spoon felt that it should still have some tolerance as a monster, so it decided to be magnanimous and forgive this human.

It was definitely not because the sight of the human with the monster made it feel creepy.

In fact, Baby Spoon had almost let out his anger and was thinking of stopping the fruit-smashing behavior tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

As a result, before it could stop, it attracted such a big evil star.

Baby Spoon felt quite regretful.

It also finds it fun to watch this human get furious every time he is hit by a fruit but can't find the culprit, so it has been reluctant to give up this game.

It turns out that even if you are a monster you can't get too complacent.

Yingshao carefully glanced at Xiao Xiao who was diagonally below him, and quickly looked away when the other party noticed.

It looks like it has done nothing and knows nothing.

The smile on Xiao Xiao's lips couldn't help but deepen.

……

"Master Xiao?"

Chi Xiu Ke couldn't help but speak, "How is it? Did the other party accept Brother Ji Xi's apology?"

Xiao Xiao met Meng Jixi's gaze, the curve of his mouth slightly narrowed, and he said seriously: "It's okay, the other party accepts your apology."

Xiao Xiao was a little surprised by Meng Jixi's unexpected "obedience". After all, this man didn't look like someone who was easy to talk to.

The few times we met, I couldn't really say I was very polite to him.

But this person was willing to do as he said and apologize to the monster he could not see, which made Xiao Xiao feel more in line with him.
