Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2978 - 2914: Lifting a Rock Only to Drop It on One’s Own Foot
Previously on Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s...
Jiang Xiao brought a can of tea to visit the uncle from whom they bought the house. He looked at Jiang Xiao, then at Ding Haijing, and suddenly recognized them, "Ah, you two lovebirds are back again?"
Huh?
Lovebirds?
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
Hadn’t they explained this before?
Ding Haijing instantly turned around and walked out.
He regretted coming along.
Meng Xinian snorted, still wearing a sour expression after Jiang Xiao came out.
"I bet, when I’m not around, you and Ding Haijing have been fanning these misunderstandings everywhere together."
Seeing his expression, Jiang Xiao felt innocent, "Old Ding was the bodyguard you found for me, and you always told me to bring them along wherever I went."
So, is he shooting himself in the foot here?
Although he knew nothing was going on between Jiang Xiao and Ding Haijing, thinking about how they looked like a couple in public made him feel uncomfortable and envious inside.
"Otherwise, should I stop bringing them along from now on?" Jiang Xiao suggested.
Meng Xinian sighed, "You should still bring them."
He could only handle his own jealousy internally.
In the car, Ding Haijing gave Meng Xinian a sidelong glance, "Officer Meng, I apologize."
There was nothing to apologize for, yet somehow saying it so seriously irritated Meng Xinian a bit.
"Just drive!"
His face was gloomy throughout the journey.
Jiang Xiao glanced at him occasionally, realizing he was not easy to appease, so she decided to ignore him, letting him calm down on his own.
Who asked him to not be by her side and then arranged bodyguards for her?
Now, only he would inexplicably get jealous of the bodyguards.
At the little house by the sea, Jiang Xiao unlocked the door and led Meng Xinian inside.
"This should be where my mom lived before, but we still haven’t found her. Dad says she must still be alive somewhere. I believe him, yet I don’t know when we’ll find her, nor what kind of person she is."
"Little," Meng Xinian put his arm around her shoulders, saying, "I believe any woman who can captivate the Sixth Young Master must have her allure. You need to believe that."
True.
Jiang Xiao had always thought so.
But no one knew how people could change over the years.
Jiang Xiao sighed.
Of course, this visit was meant to be secretive.
Jiang Xiao and Meng Xinian waited in the small house by the sea, while Ding Haijing, in disguise, went to the Jiang Family to find Ding Fu.
Then Ding Fu informed Jiang Shiheng that they had arrived.
Half a day later, Jiang Shiheng came with Yue Yang and Sun Han.
Upon seeing Jiang Shiheng, Jiang Xiao brightened up and threw herself into his arms.
"Dad."
"Little, what made you decide to come over?" Jiang Shiheng was obviously delighted to see her, but at this time, D State was only calm on the surface, with undercurrents beneath. Her visit could easily attract attention.
"Brother Xinian and I have something to discuss with you."
Jiang Xiao glanced at Sun Han, and he promptly said, "Xiao Chiang, Uncle Yang and I will stand guard outside."
"Thank you and Uncle Yang."
"It’s no trouble."
Sun Han and Yue Yang left, each guarding a direction.
They stayed some distance from the small house.
Meng Xinian stood by the window, taking a glance at Yue Yang outside.
