Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 697: Chapter 698 Watching Like Seeing Little Fairy

So, in the end, Chiang Xiao really did don a sterile suit and enter the intensive care unit.

From the outside, it didn’t seem like much to others.

Only Meng Xinian’s heart kept pounding relentlessly inside him.

He felt as if he was about to uncover yet another secret of Chiang Xiao’s, and a very significant one at that.

Indeed, no sooner had Chiang Xiao entered than Fong Jianye woke up.

Moreover, the moment Fong Jianye regained consciousness, he was alert, and both his thoughts and memories were intact.

When Chiang Xiao asked if he held a grudge against Gao Wei for the blow that had severely injured him, Fong Jianye was led astray by her question, assuming everyone was aware of the previous day’s events, and instantly cursed, ”That bastard Gao Wei, why couldn’t he aim better?”

The truth was thus laid bare.

Old Meng looked at Chiang Xiao with a gaze as if he were observing a Little Fairy.

As for the commotion the Fong Family caused in the hospital or their curses towards Gao Wei of the Gao Family, they lost all interest in listening.

Old Meng, furious, made a declaration demanding the Fong and Gao families provide an explanation, or else, for the unprovoked ambush and assault by Fong Jianye and Gao Wei, as well as the false accusation against his eldest grandson, he wouldn’t let the matter rest with either family.

Upon leaving the hospital, Old Meng exhaled a breath of stale air and immediately felt much better.

Meanwhile, Du Jinruo, who had silently followed them out, had a thoughtful look on her face as she watched the retreating figures of Chiang Xiao and Meng Xinian.

Meng Xinian stayed close to Chiang Xiao the whole time, appearing very affectionate.

Furthermore, when he spoke to Chiang Xiao, his expression and voice were not at all cold; he seemed like a completely different person.

But she also felt that given Chiang Xiao’s youth, it shouldn’t be that kind of relationship between them.

Perhaps Chiang Xiao was a little sister Meng Xinian was fond of?

After some thought, she called out to Chiang Xiao.

”Chiang Xiao, did you say you rushed here from City M? Where are you staying? If you have no place to stay, why don’t you come to my place for the night? I have my own apartment outside, I live there alone, so you won’t have to worry about feeling uncomfortable around elders.”

Chiang Xiao turned to glance at her, ”I don’t make a habit of staying at strangers’ homes without a reason.”

This little sister sure doesn’t know how to endear herself to others!

Caught off guard, Du Jinruo forced a smile and said, ”How can we be strangers? Aren’t you Meng Xinian’s sister?”

Sister?

Chiang Xiao cast a sidelong glance at Meng Xinian, not giving him a chance to speak, and directly responded, ”Even if I were Meng Xinian’s sister, how is that any concern of yours? Are you perhaps Meng Xinian’s girlfriend?”

Meng Xinian couldn’t stand to hear this and immediately rapped her on the head, ”What are you babbling about?”

The legitimate fiancée is right here!

Old Meng also sensed something amiss by now and quickly interjected, ”Chiang Xiao, Xinian is not that kind of reckless person, his relationship with Xiao Du is at most that of siblings!”

This was not a matter to be mentioned lightly.

He didn’t intend for it either.

Chiang Xiao looked at Meng Xinian again.

”Sworn brother, sworn sister?”

She wickedly recalled a certain fourth tone of the word ”sworn” that had been circulating on the internet in her previous life.

This look made Meng Xinian feel all wrong. Why did he get the impression that the meaning behind this girl’s eyes was so complex? Although he didn’t understand what she was thinking, Meng Xinian knew for sure it was nothing good.

He immediately put on a stern face, addressing Old Meng, ”Old man, can’t you stop making trouble? Siblings? Did my mom give birth to a sister for me? How come I don’t know about it? If she’s not born by my mother, even if she had half of Meng Chaojun’s blood, I wouldn’t acknowledge her, let alone a stranger?”
