Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1967: Chapter 1903: The Wrong Clothes

If Chiang Xiao and the others come back and find he’s not here, they’ll have to go out looking for him again.

So Dai Gang insisted on not letting him go out.

”When it’s daylight, if they’re not back yet, Teacher Liu, you should have Pheng Fei take you to the police. I’m afraid it might trouble you a bit because it’s not convenient for me to come forward right now.”

However, by tomorrow, he could first send someone over, freeing him to go out and search.

Liu Guoying sighed, ”What’s troublesome about that? Chiang Xiao is my student, it’s naturally my responsibility.”

As he spoke, his voice caught and he choked up a bit.

He was genuinely worried sick.

He hadn’t closed his eyes all night.

In Country Y, he was entirely unaware of what was going on outside.

He kept thinking, what if something really happened to Chiang Xiao?

The more he thought about it, the more terrifying it seemed.

The more he thought about it, the more he couldn’t sleep.

Dai Gang was running back and forth between two rooms, and he hadn’t stopped all night either.

The snow outside had already stopped, after snowing heavily through the night, everything outside was a silver blanket.

Two different landscapes had transformed overnight.

How cold must it be out there?

”Do you think if something really happened to them, how could they possibly endure it outside?” Liu Guoying was starting to let his thoughts run wild, and just the thought of that possibility made his eyes redden.

What use is it, for him to follow Chiang Xiao out here?

If something really happened to her, he couldn’t protect her all the same, and couldn’t even help at all.

Liu Guoying felt extremely guilty.

Dai Gang stood up and walked to the window, looking out at the snow-covered world, and said in a deep voice: ”Teacher Liu, you don’t need to worry too much, they’re sure to be fine. Our leader’s skills are so good, and sister-in-law’s skills are even stronger than mine, what could happen to them?”

”Then why haven’t they come back all night?”

”I guess they ran into something that delayed them, maybe they discovered some important intelligence and couldn’t make it back, rather than running into danger.”

This was a theory occupying half of Dai Gang’s mind.

He really believed that Meng Xinian and the others were held up by something, rather than encountering danger.

Because both of their skills were exceptional.

Liu Guoying’s mind eased a bit, finding some truth to it.

But his heart remained uneasy.

Until they returned, he was endlessly worried.

Dai Gang suddenly opened his eyes wide, staring at a figure running through the snow outside the window.

The person’s shape was unfamiliar, and since it was just barely dawn, he couldn’t see clearly, but his intuition said the person was coming this way.

Sure enough, as the person came closer and looked up over here, he saw that face.

”Teacher Liu, my sister-in-law is back!”

”What? Where?” Liu Guoying abruptly stood up, but because he hadn’t slept all night and had been on pins and needles, his mind was tense. Rising so suddenly, he saw black before his eyes and almost collapsed to the ground.

Dai Gang was startled, rushed over in a flash, and caught him.

”Teacher Liu, be careful, sit down quickly.”

After helping Liu Guoying sit down and looking out the window again, he could no longer see Chiang Xiao.

”Huh? Where is sister-in-law?”

Dai Gang was momentarily stunned.

He could have sworn he just saw her.

Chiang Xiao had just turned in another direction, in a spot where no one could see, and let Meng Xinian out.

”I hadn’t expected Dai Gang to be standing right at the window, so he saw me. He might think it’s strange later,” Chiang Xiao glanced at him, then looked at her own clothes, ”I definitely wasn’t wearing these when I went out last night.”
