Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1046: Chapter 1047: What Qualifications Do You Have

The car came to pick up Meng Chaojun, and Old Meng was also nervous, following him into the car, but before getting in, he stuffed a set of keys into Chiang Xiao’s hand.

Duan Qingqing glanced back at Chiang Xiao and said, ”Xiao Chiang, we’re all going to the hospital now, and there will be no one at home to entertain you. You should go back first.”

Through the car window, Old Meng called out to Chiang Xiao, ”Little, you stay at home to keep an eye on things! If someone delivers something later, you need to accept it. Xinian’s room is on the second floor, on the left. Try the keys and you’ll know.”

”Okay,” Chiang Xiao replied and, ignoring Duan Qingqing, turned back and went inside.

Duan Qingqing was truly about to burst with anger.

Are they really going to leave this wretched girl here?

And give her the keys to Meng Xinian’s room?

Someone’s delivering something? Who, and what?

Does Chiang Xiao even have the right to receive things for them at home!

”Dad!” she blurted out, not daring to delay since Meng Chaojun was already in the car, waiting to be taken to the hospital. Once in the car and sitting beside Old Meng, she couldn’t help but say, ”Is it really appropriate to leave Xiao Chiang alone at our house?”

”What’s inappropriate about it?” Old Meng snorted. ”I think it’s very appropriate! Besides, she’s one of the Meng Family people too! She’s the fiancée of my only grandson, my granddaughter-in-law! Start the car, start the car.”

What kind of person is this?

With such urgency, was she not worried about her own husband’s health, but about Little?

The car drove away, and Chiang Xiao stood in the living room, looking around Tyrant Meng’s home, suddenly feeling a sense of desolation. What did he feel when he was at home in the past?

Chiang Xiao suddenly felt very sorry for him, and made a phone call to G Province Xinying District.

When Meng Xinian came to answer the phone, he asked, ”Where is this call from?”

Xiao Qian gave a thumbs up.

This was their code. Thumbs up meant Capital City.

Capital City. The people who might call him from there could be Grandpa, Chen Yin, and of course, Little.

So he answered the phone, initially in a calm tone.

”This is Meng Xinian.”

Chiang Xiao’s voice came from the other end of the phone.

”Brother Xinian, it’s me.”

The expressionless face of Meng Xinian suddenly changed, his lips curved into a smile, and his eyes seemed to light up with laughter, as if suddenly charged with electricity.

”Decided to call at last?”

She had gone to Capital City a week ago and had called him on the day she arrived to tell him that she had safely reached and was staying in the school dormitory. After that, she said, the chances of calling him would be rare, and indeed, several days had passed without a call.

”Guess where I am now?” Chiang Xiao asked, ”Don’t ask about the caller ID.”

Meng Xinian was silent for a few seconds, ”Meng Family?”

Chiang Xiao was speechless.

”...Not fun.”

How did he guess right away?

Meng Xinian couldn’t help but laugh, ”Silly, in Capital City, what other place do you and I know, and yet you would still surprise me by going there?”

Apart from the Meng Family, there was no other place where she needed to ask him that.

Chiang Xiao thought so too.

Meng Xinian had always been clever, unbeatable in many ways.

”Alright, you are formidable.”

”What brought you over there? Did Grandpa take you?”

”Yeah.”

”...Didn’t suffer any misfortunes, did you?” Meng Xinian asked immediately.

Chiang Xiao paused, then said, ”Now, aside from you, no one can make me feel wronged. However, your family does have an old drama king.”

Meng Xinian paused, ”Old drama king? What do you mean?”

”It means someone who’s very pretentious, overacts, and always adds drama unnecessarily.”

Ha ha.

Meng Xinian couldn’t help but burst into loud laughter.
