Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 103: Chapter 103: Are You Convinced?

Moreover, she was determined to make Ding Dani afraid, too afraid to sling any more mud at her.

In her past life, the incident with Ji Desheng and the incident in Qian Mengzi’s sweet potato field had dragged her into a maelstrom of rumors. This time, she would never allow anyone to stir up those affairs again.

So, she didn’t mind releasing an almost ghostly ferocity towards a girl as young as thirteen.

Sure enough, Ding Dani’s face turned a frightened shade of green.

How could a young girl accustomed to minor spats among friends have ever seen someone like Chiang Xiao strike with a slap to the face, her gaze sharp as a knife, making one feel as if their flesh was being gouged out with just a glance?

Or heard someone casually threaten to kill her?

Chiang Xiao’s demeanor was far from the hollow threats of an immature girl.

Ding Dani felt that if she had dared to continue just now, Chiang Xiao really might have killed her.

The chill from Chiang Xiao made Ding Dani shiver uncontrollably, truly not daring to go near Chiang Xiao again.

Chiang Xiao entered the sixth-grade classroom and glanced around. Remembering as if her memory had been unlocked, she quickly located her seat and walked over to it.

The students in the class couldn’t help but stare at her; their gazes seemed to follow her motion.

”Chiang Xiao, are you better?”

Chiang Xiao looked at her deskmate and remembered her name.

Sun Xiaoxing, from the eastern end of the village, with a large family consisting of grandparents, parents, two older brothers, an older sister, and a younger sister, she ranked fourth. Both of her older brothers were already married with children, her sister didn’t go to school and stayed at home to do housework while waiting to be matched for marriage, and her younger sister was in the third grade here.

Sun Xiaoxing started school late and was now fourteen years old. She was developing faster than anyone else in the class and had a rather well-crafted figure. Her face was not the delicate type; it was rather with bold brows and large eyes, full lips, a slightly wheatish complexion, and looked somewhat like a young Shu Qi, which made her quite popular among the boys.

Previously, she didn’t really like Chiang Xiao’s somber and aloof demeanor, but since they had ended up sitting together on the first day of school by chance, they made do as deskmates and got along without incident.

Chiang Xiao was somewhat surprised to hear her showing concern.

In her past life, although she and Sun Xiaoxing were deskmates, they hardly spoke at all.

”Yes, I’m better now.”

Sun Xiaoxing looked her over with a gleam in her eye, ”I took a few days off to visit my grandmother’s house, and I only heard about your situation when I came back. Chiang Xiao, you’re quite something, I heard the reenactment of the case made Ding Dani turn white and speechless? And that you beat up Niu Guiying? Are you still the same deskmate Chiang Xiao I know?”

”Genuine as ever.” Chiang Xiao sat down and took out her Chinese language textbook.

The language textbook cover was wrapped with calendar paper, with a handwritten timetable tucked inside.

The first class of the day was Chinese.

Chiang Xiao looked at the somewhat childish handwriting on the timetable and felt a little dazed.

Previously, her handwriting was pretty good, but the strokes were deliberate and the endings weak, making the characters seem frail and petty. It is said that one’s handwriting reflects their character, and now, living another life, she was no longer satisfied with such handwriting.

By this time, Ding Dani had just entered the classroom, head down.

However, Sun Xiaoxing still noticed the handprint on her face and immediately her eyes flickered with the light of gossip. She asked in a hushed voice, ”Hey, Ding Dani seems to have been slapped. It wasn’t you, was it?”

Chiang Xiao glanced at Ding Dani as well, ”Congratulations, you guessed right.”

Sun Xiaoxing was momentarily stunned, then burst into laughter, slapping her thigh.

”Impressive!”

Thanks to Sun Xiaoxing, the day at the elementary school quickly passed by.

Now the school let out early, at three forty in the afternoon. Chiang Xiao had gone to see Secretary Yao at noon, saying she wanted to go into town to buy some paint for wall paintings after school. Secretary Yao naturally agreed, telling her to go with Yao Cong.
