Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 535: Chapter 536: Yes, I’m Angry (for Ruth +2)

Chiang Xiao’s expression grew increasingly tranquil, but Hu Xibing still felt that such calmness made him shiver inwardly.

”So what happened next? Did Tyrant Meng go out to fight with that man?”

”Yes, Xinzi said... they went out, and the entire camp’s members followed to watch.”

This matter turned out to be...

Hu Xibing had not expected that after Zhao Xin hung up the phone and left, he actually didn’t find the person at all. This incident had not yet been explained to Hu Xibing by Zhao Xin, but at that time, he was still unclear about it himself. By the time he figured it out, they had already boarded the bus for a wilderness training at a desolate mountain, and it was too late even to make a phone call.

Suddenly, Chiang Xiao gave a slight smile.

”Is that so? It seems that the camp must have been quite lively that night,” Chiang Xiao said and immediately changed the subject to the reason for her visit that day.

However, she had now decided to postpone her trip to the provincial city. She should first visit the county town to sell those wild game from the Space!

Originally, she had decided to use Meng Xinian’s money, considering it as his investment in the teahouse business, but now she had changed her mind!

Chiang Xiao felt she had been somewhat presumptuous before.

Why had she trusted Meng Xinian so much?

Why had she thought about using his money?

What was their relationship now? Fiancés? Don’t make her laugh—as if Tyrant Meng couldn’t find a way to dissolve that tie immediately if he wanted!

Besides, hadn’t she also felt that they would eventually part ways?

Why was she being foolish again?

Getting jealous over a Female Supervisor Guard from the literary and art squad? Was that really something Tyrant Meng would do? If it was only about jealousy, of course not.

But if he really saw that girl as one of his own, no matter who tried to take her, with his possessive nature, he would surely flatten anyone who tried.

Chiang Xiao didn’t know what she was feeling, but suddenly she began to loathe herself.

Hadn’t she decided that in this new life, she would blaze her own trail relying on her abilities? So was she dependent on a man again?

”I won’t be going this time, Sister-in-law...”

”Brother Hu, you shouldn’t call me ’Sister-in-law’ anymore. Since you’ve just told me that matter, if Tyrant Meng truly has a girl he likes, it wouldn’t be appropriate to call me that. Just call me by my name.”

”Well... okay,” Hu Xibing finally agreed to change how he addressed her.

”If you’re not going this time, I’ll take my grandparents. There are too many messy things going on here; taking them out for a change of scene is good too. But Brother Hu, you should keep this matter to yourself, don’t put pressure on Meng Xi. Let him take care of his own matters first.”

”Jiang Xiao, aren’t you upset or angry?” Hu Xibing asked.

Chiang Xiao shook her head: ”I’m not upset.”

Well, angry? Of course, there would be a bit of that.

Initially, she had constantly emphasized to Meng Xinian that if there really was another woman and he wanted to date her, all he had to do was tell Chiang Xiao directly, and she would have no problem with breaking off the engagement.

Yet, how much time had passed before she heard such a melodramatic story from someone else’s mouth?

Was she not even entitled to be angry?

However, while Chiang Xiao showed nothing outwardly, in Hu Xibing’s eyes, her composure just moments before had made him feel uneasy, but now it really seemed like nothing was amiss.
