Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2081: Chapter 2017: As If a Lifetime Has Passed

Ah Liu’s tests came out, and both the doctor and Chen Baoshen were even more certain about the need to perform the surgery as soon as possible.

Now that Chiang Xiao has returned, they all feel a little relieved.

Even Meng Xinian, who never thought of relying on anyone, felt a sense of calm because she was there. Although they ultimately couldn’t get married.

But the banquet that night was still arranged as planned.

The restaurant’s dishes and drinks were already prepared.

Ah Liu requested to be discharged from the hospital to join them for this meal, and after some thought, Chiang Xiao agreed. With her by his side, there was at least some assurance, and she also brought along Chen Baoshen.

There were three tables in total, making it quite lively.

However, knowing that Meng Xinian and Chiang Xiao couldn’t register as scheduled, quite a few people were disappointed.

The most disappointed among them were Old Meng and Meng Chaojun.

The father and son looked at each other silently, and even before the banquet started, Old Meng couldn’t help but pour himself a glass of wine and down it.

”Dad, drink a little less; even though they didn’t get married, it’s only a matter of time. This granddaughter-in-law won’t run away.”

Old Meng glared at him.

”Do you think your words count?”

Who said she wouldn’t run away?

As long as Meng Xinian hasn’t brought Chiang Xiao home, his heart can’t find peace.

Now he increasingly realizes how good Chiang Xiao is, and he’s also discovered that Chiang Xiao is becoming more outstanding. He used to think his grandson was great in every way, and Chiang Xiao was just a little girl who couldn’t measure up to his tall and handsome grandson.

But now Chiang Xiao is eighteen, and Meng Xinian is twenty-five. If they continue to delay, once Meng Xinian gets close to thirty, what if Chiang Xiao really dislikes him for being too old?

Besides, if they keep delaying, when will he be able to hold a great-grandchild?

No one knows whether Meng Xinian and Chiang Xiao have ’done that’ yet; if they haven’t, at his age, holding back so long might cause health issues, what if he can’t have children later?

Old Meng is really on the verge of worrying himself sick.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but down a second glass.

Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao were also somewhat at a loss for words, unsure of what to say.

Who knew Little’s dad would end up in the hospital at this critical moment?

Little was indeed late returning, it was past three o’clock at the time, had she returned the night before or in the morning, they might have registered as planned. After all, they could have returned to the hospital to take good care of her father after registering.

But she came back too late, just when he was going for a check-up.

When Chiang Xiao appeared with Ah Liu, everyone turned to look at him, their expressions one of unexpected surprise.

But soon, they all had a look of ’this is normal.’

Chiang Xiao’s father turned out to be so young, so handsome, and so charismatic.

He looked like an Aristocratic Family young master.

Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao watched, each feeling a pang of emotion, reminiscing about past events as if they were from another lifetime.

”Little used to be bullied every day in the village; everyone said she was a child with no father or mother, always claiming her real dad must be a Scoundrel...” Chiang Songhai couldn’t help but stand up, his eyes reddened as he looked at Ah Liu, ”They really should see Little’s dad!”

At his words, everyone present fell silent.

They all looked at Chiang Xiao.

Now standing before them was Chiang Xiao, tall and slender, elegantly dressed, with unmatched beauty and remarkable poise.

She was a rising star in the art world.

Who would have thought she had lived that kind of life before?

Ah Liu held Chiabg Xiao’s hand tightly.
