Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2872: Chapter 2808: Hard to Escape the Nightmare

The happiest about settling down by buying a house in City M are none other than Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao.

They don’t know many people in City M, just the couple Chu Liang and his wife, and the family of Xue Liujin.

Now that Xu Canyuan’s family is also moving to the city, there will be one more neighbor, an acquaintance from the same village, of course, Chiang Songhai is happy.

He even made a special call to tell Jiang Xiao about this.

”Yes, I’ll come back after finishing the things here,” Xu Lin said earnestly, ”If you ever need anything from me, just write to me anytime, I’ll come over right away.”

Luo Yongsheng and Guan Tiezhu were standing next to him and exchanged a glance upon hearing this.

These words...

Jiang Xiao smiled, ”I suppose it won’t be necessary for a while, I feel bad always bothering you.”

Every time Xu Lin did work for her, he charged very little, probably just a bit over cost.

This time was no different.

”It’s no bother, really.”

”Then Brother Lin Zi, you should go back first, it’s getting late.”

”Alright, I’ll head back then.”

After Xu Lin left, Jiang Xiao looked at Guan Tiezhu and Luo Yongsheng.

They understood what she meant.

”We’re supposed to leave at nine, wasn’t that the agreement?”

After Hu Xiangyong’s death, Jiang Xiao didn’t let them stay overnight at her place again. Ding Haijing was still a bit worried about her, so after some back and forth discussions, they agreed that they would stay until nine before leaving.

Originally, Jiang Xiao intended for them to head back earlier today.

Because of that painting, her emotions were not very high, and she wanted to be alone.

But they disagreed and insisted on staying until nine, leaving Jiang Xiao with no choice.

If the two of them left now, Ding Haijing would be here in ten minutes.

In the evening, she entered her bedroom and then slipped into the Space.

Lately, she hadn’t been going into the Space very often.

The Space now truly resembled an Immortal Realm.

The herbs were enshrouded in Spirit Mist, even the flowers had a faint mist surrounding them, along with a gentle fragrance, making the Space as beautiful as an Immortal Realm.

In this Immortal Realm, there were also three apple trees.

These had grown from apple seeds Jiang Xiao casually threw into the Space after eating Madam Cui’s apples half a month ago at the sanatorium.

Jiang Xiao didn’t expect them to grow so quickly.

In just about half a month, they were already bountiful with fruit.

Though still green, not fully ripe to turn red yet.

Nevertheless, the Space now had a hint of apple freshness, making the place smell even better.

Jiang Xiao sat under the trees, on a bamboo chair beneath them.

Ever since the apple trees had grown, she enjoyed sitting under them.

There really was a fruity aroma she particularly liked.

She took out the scroll of painting once more and slowly unrolled it in front of her.

Meanwhile, Sun Han turned his head to glance at Sixth Young Master Jiang’s room door.

Today, Sixth Young Master went to bed rather early, was he exhausted from looking at the account books today?

In the room, on the bed, Jiang Shiheng kept his eyes tightly shut, beads of sweat formed densely on his forehead.

In his dream, he kept running, kept running, always running upstairs.

A never-ending spiral staircase, with each step on a dusty, abandoned concrete slab, as if it would never end.

He knew he was dreaming, yet he couldn’t wake up.
