Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2979 - 2915: Should I Step Out?
Previously on Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s...
This person, of course, is someone he’s meeting for the first time, but Jiang Xiao had told him about someone like this before. This person looks quite loyal and reliable.
Inside the room, Jiang Xiao took a bottle of water out of her backpack and handed it to Jiang Shiheng.
"Dad, have some water first."
This time, she definitely brought a lot of things over for Jiang Shiheng again.
She wasn’t sure if it was just her imagination, but she always felt that Jiang Shiheng’s complexion was worse than the last time she saw him.
Jiang Xiao thought of that thing Sun Han mentioned the last time. She didn’t intend to ask, but after seeing Jiang Shiheng’s complexion, she couldn’t help it.
If she doesn’t ask, how will she know if he’s being troubled by nightmares?
Jiang Shiheng took two sips of water and felt a boost in his spirits.
During this period, he had drunk quite a bit of the water Jiang Xiao gave him. When it ran out, only two bottles with blue caps remained, so he didn’t dare to drink them all.
He understood that being plagued by nightmares and not resting well meant his energy wouldn’t recover no matter what.
His nightmares were different from ordinary people’s nightmares. Although other people’s nightmares might be terrifying, with Jiang Xiao’s kind of potion to nourish them, they would definitely recover quickly.
However, his case was different; after a nightmare, he always felt as if his essence, qi, and spirit were drained.
Jiang Shiheng understood that it was because his dreams weren’t meaningless; they were visions or events that had truly happened in the past.
"Daddy, have you been dreaming recently? Nightmares?"
Jiang Xiao asked straightforwardly.
Moreover, she had no plan to hide this from Meng Xinian.
Jiang Shiheng paused his action of drinking water.
He looked at Jiang Xiao and couldn’t help but give a bitter smile, "Did Sun Han tell you this?"
"Sun Han only mentioned it to me once, but Dad, from the way you look, it doesn’t seem like you only occasionally have nightmares."
Jiang Shiheng glanced at Meng Xinian.
Meng Xinian was slightly startled and quickly asked, "Do I need to step out?"
This pair of father and daughter truly had more secrets than anyone else.
If they wanted him to step out at this moment, he wouldn’t find it odd, nor would he be displeased.
Upon hearing his question, Jiang Xiao also looked at Jiang Shiheng.
Jiang Shiheng shook his head, "No need, Xinian can listen as well."
He paused for a moment and then said, "I’ve indeed been having nightmares continuously recently."
"What kind of nightmares?" Jiang Xiao pursued the question.
Jiang Shiheng looked at Jiang Xiao, his gaze suddenly revealing a few degrees of sadness and heartache. This feeling was so intense that it was palpable, and Meng Xinian also felt it. He asked instinctively, "Is it related to Little?"
"Yes."
Although somewhat hesitant, Jiang Shiheng still confessed openly.
"Dad, just tell me, it’s okay. What did you dream about?" Jiang Xiao pursed her lips, already having some inkling in her heart.
"I’ve dreamt many times of Little falling to her death."
"Falling to her death?" Meng Xinian was shocked, then looked at Jiang Xiao.
Jiang Xiao took a deep breath and brought out that painting, unfolding it in front of him. "Dad, is this the scene?"
Upon seeing the painting, Jiang Shiheng’s hand trembled, and he asked in a lost voice, "Who painted this?"
He could tell it wasn’t Jiang Xiao’s painting.
Because Jiang Xiao’s artistry was beyond this level.
But exactly because he could see that it was done by someone else, he was even more shocked.
This scene, this scene was exactly what he saw in his dream, identical.
This was the perspective, this was the height.
What he saw was just like this.
But how could it be?
From his reaction, Jiang Xiao and Meng Xinian already saw it, this was indeed the scene from his dream.
