Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2346 - 2282: I’m Telling You, Chiang Xiaoxiao

Previously on Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s...
Jiang Xiao worries about Meng Xinian’s potential deployment and considers how to protect him. Meanwhile, Meng Xinian reveals the unconventional and pungent training punishments he has devised for his subordinates. The arrival of Ding Haijing prompts Jiang Xiao to ask about the legendary rivalry between her husband and the renowned Wei Yixi, leading to a tense and defensive reaction from Meng Xinian.

Meng Xinian felt a wave of displeasure wash over him.

Is there anything more irritating than being underestimated by your own wife?

He rubbed his face vigorously and let out a snort before saying, "Like you said, it's 'Sea Wei and Land Meng.' Why do you think it's split between Sea and Land? It isn't just because he's in the Sea Region Alliance while I'm in the Land Region Alliance. There is another reason: his strength is in the water, but on solid ground, he isn't my match in a solo duel."

Even though he was annoyed, Meng Xinian remained objective in his assessment.

"So you're saying his skills in the water are exceptional?"

"He holds the top record for breath-holding in the Sea Region Alliance. Word is that once he hits the ocean, he becomes as fierce as a great white shark."

However, despite being a talented swimmer, Meng Xinian didn't spend much time near the coast or in the waves, so he naturally lacked that specific experience.

Wei Yixi can even calculate flow velocity and synchronize his movements with the current, a feat no one else can replicate.

Because of this, Meng Xinian truly does respect Wei Yixi.

But if Little were to start idolizing Wei, he couldn't help but feel a sting of jealousy.

Perhaps he should incorporate water training into his future routine?

He couldn't stop the thought from crossing his mind.

Chiang Xiao was unaware of his internal monologue; she rarely heard Meng Xinian give such high praise to another person's abilities, so she added, "It sounds like Wei Yixi is truly remarkable."

"Why do you keep bringing him up? Did Ding Haijing spend the whole time praising Wei Yixi to you? Is it possible that Wei Lengmian hasn't given up and still wants to set you up with that brat? Chiang Xiaoxiao, remember that you have a man and you're already taken, understand? You agreed to the date on August 27th, didn't you? Let me tell you, Chiang Xiaoxiao..."

Chiang Xiao quickly pulled the phone receiver away from her ear.

What was wrong with this man?

Why was he suddenly acting like this?

She hadn't meant anything by it, and she had even mentioned Director Wei.

Director Wei didn't seem like the type to act inappropriately; he was well aware she was Meng Xinian's fiancée. Why would he try to introduce her to his nephew?

Besides, the way he described her made it sound like she was some prize everyone was fighting over.

If Wei Yixi was so incredible, surely there were plenty of women eager to marry him; he wouldn't need Director Wei to play matchmaker, would he?

She was overthinking things.

"Chiang Xiaoxiao, are you listening to me?"

"I'm listening!"

"Stop thinking about Wei Yixi and think about me more. I'm your man, do you get it?"

Chiang Xiao had the urge to roll her eyes.

"Meng Xinian, I think you've definitely consumed a lot of vinegar tonight."

"It's good that you realize it. I've had so much I won't even need vinegar for my dumplings," Meng Xinian huffed.

Who told her to be so curious about Wei Yixi?

"That's enough," Chiang Xiao snorted in return. "I saw my uncle today. He mentioned the list isn't final yet and that someone leaked the information on purpose. The Long Family is definitely aware, and if they know, then the Gao and Lu Families must know as well, right?"

His tone became serious the moment she brought this up.

"Yes, that much is obvious."

"I already told Uncle that if you are chosen, I won't stand in your way. I'll let you go."

"Little."

Meng Xinian spoke her name softly, wishing he could pull her into his arms right then.

Where else could he find a wife who would give him such unwavering support when faced with such a massive situation?

"However, if you aren't selected, can you promise me you won't go out of your way to fight for it?" Chiang Xiao added gently.

Regardless of her support, it would be strange if she wasn't at least a little worried about his safety.
