Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 961: Chapter 962 He Dislikes

Miss Du Jinruo glanced at Chiang Xiao and nodded, ”Yes, Officer Meng, I’m sorry, I misunderstood you. The rabbit you carefully selected and sent to my home was taken back by my aunt. She didn’t tell me, nor did she tell my parents. The rabbit died a few days later due to my sister’s care...”

”I just bought the rabbit casually at the flower and bird market; it wasn’t carefully selected,” Meng Xinian said with a stern face.

Chiang Xiao: ”...”

She couldn’t help wanting to laugh. This bad guy wasn’t afraid of hurting the lady’s feelings!

Miss Du Jinruo paused and looked at Meng Xinian with a somewhat mournful expression.

Meng Xinian then asked, ”As for the rabbit being taken care of to death by your family, that shouldn’t be my responsibility, right?”

”That, no not needed...”

Meng Xinian cut her off, ”That’s settled then. By the way, let me introduce you,” he put his arm around Chiang Xiao’s shoulder and said, ”My fiancée, Chiang Xiao, Little, this is Miss Du Jinruo.”

Chiang Xiao, feeling helpless, could only smile at Du Jinruo, ”Miss Du.”

Fiancée?

Miss Du Jinruo’s figure shook slightly while her complexion turned pale at once.

”You, you two are engaged?” How could this be?

Chiang Xiao sighed. Although she admired Miss Du Jinruo’s courage, after all, the woman was interested in her own fiancé, and she definitely did not want to see Miss Du Jinruo keep pestering endlessly.

So, she responded directly to that statement.

”Yes. I’m sorry, Miss Du, but we have some affairs to attend to, so we must be going.”

Meng Xinian patted her head and left with her without any reluctance.

After a few steps, Meng Xinian leaned down and whispered something to Chiang Xiao, and she made a grimace at him.

Miss Du Jinruo watched their departing figures with a pale face, still unable to accept this fact. Biting her lip, she actually chased after them and stopped them again.

Meng Xinian’s expression darkened.

Chiang Xiao also raised an eyebrow. She felt she had been tolerant enough of Miss Du Jinruo. Was this girl planning to make this an endless issue?

”Miss Du, is there something else?”

This time when she spoke, her voice carried a chill. Miss Du Jinruo didn’t notice it, but Meng Xinian did.

He simply kept quiet, leaving it to her.

In fact, he really had no experience dealing with the opposite sex.

The existence of Duan Qingqing, during his adolescent and young adult years, made him resentful towards women, especially the beautiful, gentle kind that seemed ready to cry at any moment, and he had a strong aversion to them.

Miss Du Jinruo had already cried in front of him, and consequently, she was categorized within the range he despised.

To many men, women who could arouse a man’s protective instincts might be popular, but because of Duan Qingqing, the very type of woman he loathed the most was this kind.

So, when Chiang Xiao could handle the situation, he preferred not to speak.

Miss Du Jinruo looked at Chiang Xiao, and she couldn’t deny that even as a woman, she found Chiang Xiao exceedingly beautiful. But what did beauty matter? Meng Xinian’s family wouldn’t just accept someone for their looks; even a well-strategized and beautiful woman like Duan Qingqing had a family background that could match Meng Chaojun’s.

Who was Chiang Xiao?

She had never heard of a Jiang family that could match Meng Xinian!

”Chiang Xiao, I know that since you’ve been to Capital City and met Grandpa Meng, you must be aware of what kind of family the Meng Family is. But, Uncle Meng and Aunt Duan did not invite you to their home, did they? The Meng Family isn’t as simple as you think! I won’t say bad things about Officer Meng behind his back, but still!”
