Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2146: Chapter 2082: The Man in Her Heart

Of course, he couldn’t tell Chiang Xiao any of this.

”Hasn’t Xinian come back yet? He’s been out for almost half a month now,” Ah Liu asked.

He was also hoping for Meng Xinian to come back soon.

In the past, he understood that soldiers had to obey orders and often couldn’t help themselves, but now he was a bit worried. What if Meng Xinian and Chiang Xiao were apart so often that their relationship really had problems?

Chiang Xiao’s expression turned a bit gloomy when she heard him mention Meng Xinian.

”No, I don’t know what kind of mission he’s on. It’s confidential, so he can’t tell me. I guess even if there are phones where he is, he’s forbidden to contact me.”

Otherwise, Tyrant Meng should at least have called her.

”Do you miss him?” Ah Liu looked at Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Xiao’s face turned slightly red, but she honestly nodded.

She tried to be as honest as possible in front of her father.

”I think he’ll be back soon.”

Chiang Xiao also thought so.

Could it really take that long for just one mission?

Since Mingtian had to go to school, Ah Liu had been adamant that Chiang Xiao shouldn’t stay in the hospital, so after dinner, he insisted she leave.

Chiang Xiao went downstairs, walked into the garden, and suddenly saw that strange man from the other day.

He was still sitting alone on the bench in the garden, looking down at something.

She glanced at him without giving it much thought and continued walking.

Unexpectedly, the man called out to her.

”Hey, pretty girl.”

Chiang Xiao stopped and turned to him, ”Are you talking to me?”

”Isn’t it obvious?” The man stood up, walked over to her, looked at her, and smiled, ”So you see, I said we should at least exchange names, so I don’t have to call you that when we meet again.”

”No need, just a passing encounter,” Chiang Xiao said, ”If we do meet again, you can keep calling me that, after all, I’m quite happy to be called pretty.”

With that, she waved her hand, walked around him, and continued toward the hospital entrance.

The man watched Chiang Xiao’s back and couldn’t help but smile again.

What a fascinating girl.

She even keeps her name so tightly guarded?

Is this the kind of girl who can win Meng Xinian’s heart?

Chiang Xiao walked a distance and suddenly saw Du Jinruo running toward the hospital with a bag.

In the past, Du Jinruo would never have failed to notice her, given their somewhat complicated relationship.

To Du Jinruo, she was probably a rival in love.

But this time, it seemed like Du Jinruo didn’t see her. Her eyes were bright as she quickly walked past her.

”Kevin!”

Kevin?

Who is that?

Chiang Xiao was curious, and couldn’t help but turn around to look. She saw Du Jinruo running up to that man from earlier, raising the bag as if showing off to him.

She was a bit surprised.

So the second man Du Jinruo liked is him?

Thinking about how the man had already spoken to her twice, Chiang Xiao suddenly felt exasperated.

It seemed she needed to stay as far away from that man as possible. Although she originally had no intention of approaching him or dealing with him, she still didn’t want to get involved with Du Jinruo over a man again.

Otherwise, that would just be too much drama.

But, she had to admit, Du Jinruo’s taste in men was pretty good, at least in terms of looks. After all, she didn’t really know what kind of person that man was.
