Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1387: Chapter 1389: Challenge the Entire Team

He could hear the seriousness in Chiang Xiao’s words.

It wasn’t that she was particularly clear-headed at the moment, but what she said seemed to come from the bottom of her heart.

She had hardly ever left her hometown. Going to high school in the county doesn’t count as wandering, right? Plus, she always had her grandparents with her.

Moreover, she had already bought two houses, living in her own house in the city and her own house in the county. What does that have to do with wandering?

If one were to say, her father being unknown, and her mother’s whereabouts a mystery, even that doesn’t relate to wandering.

Thus, Meng Xinian couldn’t figure out what she meant by her statement.

Chiang Xiao allowed herself to be drunken because she knew Meng Xinian was by her side. Otherwise, she would have already gone to the restroom to sober up with Spirit Spring Water from her Space.

Knowing he was by her side, she had someone to rely on, she allowed herself to experience the taste of drunkenness, not wanting to rely on the Space for everything whenever.

But when Meng Xinian asked her again about why she felt this drifting sensation, she did not respond again.

”Does your head hurt?” Meng Xinian did not press further.

Chiang Xiao, on his back, shook her head and swayed, wrapping her arms around his neck, playfully said, ”It doesn’t hurt, just dizzy. Tyrant Meng, walk slower, don’t jolt me.”

Meng Xinian couldn’t help but laugh and cry, but still he slowed down, trying to walk as steadily as possible.

He was already walking very steadily; it was this girl, dizzy from the drink, who claimed he was jolting her.

Chiang Songhai also worried that carrying her all this way would tire him out, yet he didn’t feel tired at all. It was usual for him to undergo weight-bearing cross-country training; Chiang Xiao’s weight was nothing to him.

Moreover, he felt that after drinking the Spiritual Spring Water from her Space, his physical endurance had improved a lot.

”Tomorrow you’ll pack up, and we’ll spend the summer vacation in the city, got it? I’ll come home to accompany you whenever I have time.”

”You hardly have any time.”

”I have time when I’m not on a mission,” Meng Xinian said.

”That’s a lie. When you’re not on a mission, you still have training,” Chiang Xiao retorted.

”When I’m not on a mission, and not training, I’ll always squeeze out some time.”

Chiang Xiao patted his shoulder, pouting, ”Do you even have one day a month? This year, have we met three times? Hmm, four times? Twice?”

She was counting somewhat confusedly.

Hearing her words, Meng Xinian felt a twinge of guilt.

When Chiang Xiao was sober, she never complained about him spending too little time with her, nor about his frequent missions and busy training schedules; he thought she didn’t mind. But now he realized that when she was coherent, she was just being considerate of him.

He was a Supervisor Guard Officer, and he always had to sacrifice his personal life for the greater good.

Luckily, Chiang Xiao wasn’t the type of woman who depended solely on a man for her existence, something Meng Xinian now greatly appreciated. She had her own studies, hobbies, and career.

”I’ll try to squeeze out more time to be with you, okay?”

Chiang Xiao shook and swayed her head, ”I can also come to find you. Next time when you’re on a mission, if I’m free, I’ll hide in the Space and secretly follow you, okay?”

Meng Xinian chuckled.

”If it’s a classified mission that even family members can’t know of, then you can’t,” he said, his heart warmed by her words and softened, yet he had to stick to this principle.

”Then I’ll talk to Officer Yang, if he disagrees, I’ll challenge his whole team!” Chiang Xiaoxiao waved her hand arrogantly.
