Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 966: Chapter 967 Addictive

Chapter 967: Kisses Can Be Addictive

You’re right; the officer’s concerns are indeed justified.

”Officer, we understand. We’ll go back and explain everything to them clearly, ensuring we won’t cause any hassle or trouble for sister-in-law!”

”Hmm.”

Meng Xinian waved his hand, ”Go rest for a while.”

He returned to the sick room and saw Chiang Xiao getting ready to help Zhao Xin sit up. His face darkened instantly, and he quickly stepped over to pull her away.

”I’ll do it.”

Chiang Xiao rolled her eyes at his departing figure.

However, just now, when Zhao Xin wanted to sit up, she instinctively moved to help him before her mind caught up with her actions. By the time she got close to the bed, she suddenly remembered that in her heart, she used to think of Zhao Xin like a little brother, but now she was actually younger than him.

Just as she thought about how Tyrant Meng would probably mind and was wondering if the bed could be raised, sure enough, Tyrant Meng came in.

”Thanks, officer.” Zhao Xin sat up and took the thermos Chiang Xiao handed over, ”And thank you, sister-in-law.”

”Have some porridge first; it won’t taste good once it gets cold.” Chiang Xiao glanced at the slices of meat in the thermos but didn’t plan to add anything else for Zhao Xin.

That day she had already used the hemostatic medicinal herbs from the space, and even diluted some Spiritual Spring Water to clean his wounds. So, although the wounds weren’t sutured, they had already begun to heal.

As long as Zhao Xin’s life wasn’t in danger and he wasn’t in unbearable pain, she wouldn’t use anything else from the Space for him.

Zhao Xin’s injuries were severe this time, and he had to stay in the hospital for at least half a month, so his family had been notified.

Meng Xinian’s leave didn’t go as smoothly as planned, even though it was just for two days.

From the hospital to home, he had just received a call from Yang Zhiqi, ordering him to return to the Alliance District immediately.

This made Meng Xinian’s face as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Because he was supposed to have the privilege of holding his little girl in his arms to sleep for one more night, but now that was spoiled.

But orders are orders, and no matter how reluctant or how dark his face got, he prepared to leave immediately, without even having time to eat the dinner Ge Liutao made.

Chiang Xiao walked him to the door.

”Brother Xinian, from now on, unless it’s classified, you have to tell me whenever you go on a mission,” Chiang Xiao grabbed his collar.

He was a squad member, inevitably facing blood and sweat, and she was mentally prepared for that.

She wasn’t afraid of him getting hurt; what frightened her was the thought of him being injured without her knowing or being unable to be by his side in time.

Meng Xinian wrapped his arms around her, lowering his head to kiss her lips.

It wasn’t convenient at home with grandpa and grandma around, so he didn’t dare to push boundaries. He could only take advantage of the dimly lit hallway to seize the last opportunity to taste her sweetness.

He had thought there would be plenty of chances and time tonight, which is why he’d held back from kissing her all day long.

If he had known, he wouldn’t have withheld.

Kisses can be addictive.

He felt like he’d just gotten addicted, only to be forced to leave.

He had never found it so hard to let go.

”If you have time on the weekend, come to the city, or you can visit me in the camp,” he let go of her, his voice slightly hoarse.

Chiang Xiao nodded.

With every parting, truth be told, she was uncertain about how long they would be separated.

He might be sent on missions, and it was unknown how long it would take for him to return each time.

Therefore, she similarly found each goodbye hard to bear.

Meng Xinian had to exert great self-control to turn around and leave.

Once he left, he had to stride forward without looking back; otherwise, the mere look from that young girl could shatter his restraint.
