Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2062: Chapter 1998: Dangerous Company

Nian Mutong really wanted to say, living in the Meng Family was neither happy nor reassuring for her.

First, Duan Qingqing’s affair made the Meng Family a chaotic mess, and then Meng Xinian and Chiang Xiao both disliked her staying there, so she moved out.

There was a period when, due to Nian Che insisting she stay there again, she found an excuse, claiming she was scared to live outside alone, and moved back in for a while.

But with only Old Meng and Meng Chaojun left in the Meng Family, it was indeed uncomfortable for a young girl to live there, so she found another place and moved out again.

Although they had some relation to the Meng Family, it wasn’t close enough to just live there as one pleased, right?

Meng Xinian’s mother was a daughter of the Nian Family, but she was also the daughter of her grandfather’s brother, and the two families weren’t that close.

After Mother Meng passed away, Meng Chaojun married Duan Qingqing, which means the mistress of the Meng Family was no longer a daughter of the Nian Family.

Even though Meng Chaojun and Duan Qingqing are divorced now, that didn’t really bring the Meng Family and the Nian Family any closer, did it?

As far as she knew, the Nian Family was always distant and inattentive towards Meng Xinian.

And Meng Xinian never considered the Nian Family as his own family.

Even if he regarded anyone as family, it would only be referring to his mother’s side.

Now, Nian Mutong was truly shocked when the Nian family granny suddenly said she wanted to stay at the Meng Family.

”Grandma, did you call ahead to the Meng Family and tell Grandpa Meng about coming?”

”Is that necessary? Just go straight to the door,” the old granny retorted briskly while walking at a rapid pace, forcing Nian Mutong to practically jog to keep up. ”I heard Meng Chaojun is seriously ill, it’s impossible for him not to be home.”

”But...”

”Enough, Mutong. Just listen when your grandma speaks,” her uncle Nian Tang glanced at her impatiently, ”We know the address, no need for you to say.”

They directly hailed a taxi and gave the Meng Family’s address.

Nian Mutong’s heart was filled with anxiety, feeling as if something was about to happen.

Meanwhile, Chiang Xiao was resting in her seat covered by a blanket, appearing asleep.

She wasn’t truly asleep.

Originally, she planned to sleep well on the plane back, so she stayed up all night painting a piece for Mr. Wen Li, as a token of thanks for his mentorship and assistance.

But as she boarded the plane, she noticed a man.

The man, wearing glasses and sporting a bearded face, looked unfamiliar, but when Chiang Xiao inadvertently met his gaze, her heart skipped heavily.

The man’s eyes were strikingly similar to those of the Second Master from that night!

Moreover, the vibe he gave was identical to encountering that Second Master.

Unexplainably terrifying, the kind that makes one fear approaching.

Due to this discovery, Chiang Xiao couldn’t relax throughout the journey.

Not to mention, this man’s seat was right behind hers.

It felt as if a tiger was poised behind her, making it impossible to unwind and fall asleep.

However, she still had to keep up the appearance of sleeping, after all, what else could she do on such a long flight if not sleep?

The man seemed to be flying alone, but Chiang Xiao couldn’t be sure if he had others on the plane, as several men gave off a feeling of not being ordinary, each carrying an indescribable aura of menace.

People who have blood on their hands often emit such a feeling.

Much like those she had faced with Meng Xinian when she was thirteen.
