Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 437: Chapter 437: Heart Goes Pitter-Patter

And for her first visit to see him, he wanted to treat her to the best.

Chiang Xiao thought that since she had to return to the city anyway, and it would probably be better to look for a place to stay at night with him by her side, she nodded her agreement. She indeed had some things she wanted to ask him.

For instance, whether he had a way to get into the library of City M.

She wanted to go to the library to research the text in the booklet about Space.

”Or how about I first give you a tour of our new base?” Meng Xinian saw her agree and didn’t stand on ceremony, immediately flashing a bright white smile.

”Is it convenient to give me a tour?” Chiang Xiao was still a bit curious.

Meng Xinian thought for a moment and said, ”We can visit the training grounds and the canteen.”

As for the dormitories, there wasn’t much to see there. What if some guy who wasn’t paying attention didn’t dress properly, or came out bare-chested? Wouldn’t that be exposing too much to Chiang Xiaoxiao?

Having this thought, he also felt that there was nothing worth seeing at the training grounds. Those guys had definitely never seen such a sprightly and pretty young girl before. What if they all stared with wide eyes?

After thinking it through, he overturned the idea of taking her on a tour.

”Forget it, let’s just head into the city. Wait here for me a moment; I’ll go ask for leave. Are you going back tonight? Did you come here by yourself?”

He didn’t doubt her courage to enter the provincial city on her own. He just didn’t know if Chiang Songhai and the others would feel at ease letting her come alone.

Chiang Xiao shook her head, ”I came with Brother Hu, but something came up at his friend’s shop, and he had to help out temporarily, so I ended up coming by myself. I plan to stay in the city for a few days; I’ve already discussed it with my grandparents.”

”Hu Xibing?” Seeing her nod, Meng Xinian immediately felt a sour taste in his heart. She came with Hu Xibing? They must have been together the whole time, and what’s more, was she planning to stick with him?

After all, Hu Xibing is a single young man.

It’s not convenient at all! He frowned and asked, ”Have you arranged a guesthouse for tonight?”

”Not yet. We haven’t decided on one. Can you help me look for one later? Would that be easy for you?”

Meng Xinian immediately felt more at ease.

”Easy. I can also stay with you outside tonight. I was actually due for a few days off, so I might as well take them now.”

He had just been transferred here and hadn’t settled everything, so he did have three days of leave. He had been considering whether to ask for a couple more days off and then make a trip to Peace Town, but she had come unexpectedly.

This was perfect. He could take her around the city and have a good time for a couple of days.

So, Meng Xinian immediately went out to ask for leave.

Chiang Xiao stood up, placed her water cup back on the table—the water was still unfinished, but in reality, she wasn’t thirsty at all.

She walked to the window and just happened to see Meng Xinian striding toward another building not far away.

He suddenly stopped and looked back up.

The sunlight fell on his face, yet it couldn’t match the intensity of his gaze.

Chiang Xiao’s heart skipped a beat.

She immediately stepped back from the window. She couldn’t help but raise her hand to her chest, her heart pounding wildly.

Being this good-looking is just not right!

She hadn’t even spoken to him about Yu Chunyu yet! So good-looking, so good-looking, how many pretty girls could he enchant?

Meng Xinian hadn’t come back yet when suddenly someone peeked in at the doorway.

Chiang Xiao looked over to see two sweaty men hesitating outside about whether to come in.

”Are you looking for Brother Xinian?” It’s better to give him face in front of others, so she called him ”brother.”
