Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1042: Chapter 1043: Don’t You Have a Clue?

She didn’t have so many thoughts, she was just being protective! If she had to protect Xinian, she would be the type to fight back at the slightest grievance he suffered!

Although Xinian wasn’t here right now, and although he hadn’t let her see the grievances he had suffered, Chiang Xiao was a clever child!

As soon as she saw Duan Qingqing, she could definitely tell!

She should claim some interest for Xinian in advance.

That would be right!

If the granddaughter-in-law he brought back was thinking about pleasing Meng Chaojun and Duan Qingqing, then he would really be mad!

Moreover, to people like Duan Qingqing, one should really be unreasonable, otherwise, she really couldn’t surpass her anger!

”Dad!” Meng Chaojun’s face turned ashen.

Duan Qingqing gently tugged at the hem of his clothes, and when he looked over, she shook her head pitifully, signaling him not to argue with Old Meng.

”Chaojun, it’s okay, I don’t mind,” she said quietly.

Although she said she didn’t mind, her whole demeanor radiated a sense of deep grievance and pitifulness.

Chiang Xiao slightly smiled and said, ”It’s fine, I can also not mind, although I only made a phone call and was almost interrogated about my ancestors and even implied to be uneducated in return.”

She had sharp hearing, and Duan Qingqing was merely trying to gain Meng Chaojun’s sympathy, but she had not intended for them to hear, not expecting Chiang Xiao to catch her words. Instantly, her face turned shades of green and white, embarrassed and humiliated.

Chiang Xiao’s words were indeed a direct slap on her face.

Duan Qingqing had never encountered such a straightforward and brutal person before. She had always been in environments with either genuinely genteel and well-mannered people or those who prided themselves on their status, who wouldn’t embarrass someone on the spot and understood the degrees of social interactions, knowing to leave leeway and bear some reservations.

Yet this young girl didn’t care about all that, being so straightforward and brutal in slapping her face!

Did she really not worry about creating obstacles for her, preventing her from marrying into the Meng Family?

Moreover, was she not afraid of Xinian’s disgust for such a woman?

In Duan Qingqing’s view, Chiang Xiao was truly outrageous!

Besides, Meng Chaojun was right there! Meng Donghai was right here! Was she not afraid that her actions would provoke their aversion?

Meng Chaojun was Xinian’s biological father!

She really didn’t worry at all!

How could Chiang Xiao worry.

What kind of person she was, Xinian was already very clear about; those who should like or dislike were probably already decided. Moreover, didn’t Duan Qingqing know in her heart how much Xinian hated her?

Old Meng didn’t know that when he wasn’t around, Duan Qingqing would take the phone call meant for him and do such things; he angrily said, ”If someone said they were looking for me, why did you interrogate where they came from? What, in this house, do I, Meng Donghai, have to be watched over by you, Duan Qingqing?”

Duan Qingqing’s face turned white, ”Dad, that’s not what I meant. I just heard her calling you ’grandpa’ and was worried about who it might be, so I asked a few more questions...”

”Do you think I’m senile or my brain eaten by dogs? Would I tell just anyone my home phone number? Besides, what business is it of yours what someone calls me?”

Meng Chaojun felt his head throbbing.

His head had been hurting all day, and he wasn’t feeling well, plus he had been irritated by some colleagues with differing political views. After returning home, he couldn’t even eat and just sat there, staring blankly until Old Meng and the others walked in.
