Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 466: Chapter 466 No Door at All

Their posture was so intimate that Chiang Xiao still found it somewhat uncomfortable. Especially since his warm breath was on the top of her head, her back pressed against his solid chest, being locked in his embrace made her feel uneasy.

He was a man full of strength.

And she was not really a thirteen-year-old who knew nothing.

Now, the image of him freshly showered without a shirt on kept invading her mind.

Her face felt hot flushes by turns.

Meng Xinian released his hands.

Turning to face her, he looked deeply into her eyes, ”You’re the vanquished. Now it’s time for you to answer my questions.”

Chiang Xiao: ”...”

What does that mean?

The vanquished...

Okay, so he beat her, what’s there to be proud of? And why does he have to specifically point out that she’s the vanquished?

She was only thirteen now, but as long as she trained well, there might come a day when she could beat him! Chiang Xiao was truly unconvinced.

”Tell me, why did you insist on paying last night?”

That had been bothering Meng Xinian the whole time.

Especially since he had already taken out the money, yet she still chased after him and handed the money to the cashier alongside him. At that moment, he was indeed quite unhappy.

”Is that so strange?” Chiang Xiao said, ”You paid for lunch, and also for the hotel. It’s only normal that I pay for dinner, isn’t it? I can’t use your money for everything, can I?”

”Why can’t you?” Meng Xinian asked with a heavy voice in return.

Why couldn’t she use all of his?

Chiang Xiao was taken aback, ”Then wouldn’t I be taking advantage of you?”

”What do you mean taking advantage of me? Chiang Xiaoxiao, have you forgotten our relationship again? You are my fiancee. I’ve told you, my money is your money. If I spend it, it’s the same as if you’ve spent it, understand?”

He just didn’t like her attitude of wanting to keep everything clear and separate.

Chiang Xiao pursed her lips and said, ”I don’t understand. Meng Xinian, it’s just an engagement. We both know it’s merely a cooperative relationship, and who knows when it might be called off in the future, I...”

”Nonsense!” Meng Xinian was getting irritated, ”Who said you could call off the engagement? Absolutely not!”

What bothered him the most was something else. She had been fine at noon, not showing this kind of attitude, but after seeing Kuang Yun Xian, her attitude had clearly changed.

When they went to Furong Hotel to check into a room, she hadn’t argued with him about the room fee. But now, she even wanted to fight with him over a meal’s payment.

Meng Xinian really had no experience in love and hadn’t considered their relationship in a romantic context. Therefore, he hadn’t thought about being jealous, he just subconsciously felt something was wrong, he subconsciously disliked it, and a vague worry crept in that Chiang Xiao might prefer Kuang Yun Xian more.

Especially hearing Chiang Xiao emphasize that their relationship was purely business and could be annulled in the future, it made him incredibly frustrated.

Why would he want to annul the engagement?

When had he ever said the engagement could be annulled in the future?

He was very serious about their relationship.

If she hadn’t been so young, he would have filed the marriage report already. Who the hell wanted to annul it?

Chiang Xiao was getting irritated too. Clearly, he himself thought of their marriage as a shield, as a duty. If he didn’t mind such a marital relationship, must he force others to feel the same?
