Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1162: Chapter 1163: Will He Meet Her?

But Duan Qingqing had no choice.

”Alright! I promise you, I will figure something out for the child! But big brother, if you bring that matter up again, I guarantee you’ll regret it!”

”Okay, okay, Qingqing, you’re my sister. If I really had no other options, do you think I’d harm you?” Duan Feian sighed in relief.

After they left, Du Jinruo emerged from behind the nearby trees.

Had she just overheard some insider information?

My god, what shocking secrets lay in Duan Qingqing’s past!

Should she tell Meng Xinian about this?

Du Jinruo’s presence there was actually an accident.

Originally, after knowing that Meng Xinian and Chiang Xiao had gotten engaged, she was heartbroken and had been trying to force herself to give up on him.

So, during this period, she volunteered like crazy to participate in performances aimed to comfort troops in mountainous regions or at sentinel posts, keeping herself busy and tired, and far from Capital City, thinking maybe that way she could stop thinking about Meng Xinian and avoid seeing him.

But she hadn’t anticipated that matters of the heart truly can’t be controlled.

The less willing she was to think of Meng Xinian, the clearer his image in her mind became.

She felt as if she were truly bewitched.

Love was etching into her bones.

This time upon returning to Capital City, hearing that Meng Xinian was recently in town and that his father was sick, Du Jinruo couldn’t help but come to the military compound.

She didn’t even know under what identity or pretext to enter, and if after entering she would only face Meng Xinian’s cold demeanor, she felt that would severely hurt her pride and leave her too ashamed to face anyone.

So, she just lingered outside.

Then she happened to see Duan Feian welcoming Duan Qingqing who came out, and fearing they would see her, she hid away guiltily.

Who would have thought she’d overhear such a secret!

Although Duan Feian hadn’t made things clear before being interrupted by Duan Qingqing, from that half-statement she could almost guess a bit.

Back then, Duan Qingqing had already lost her virginity to another man.

Moreover, she had already planned to marry Meng Chaojun when she met him, and marrying him was to be able to move into the compound!

If she used this information to ask Meng Xinian out, would he be willing to meet with her alone?

Because it concerned such a secret, she should choose a quiet place without others around, right?

At that time, it would just be him and her...

Thinking this, Du Jinruo’s heart started to flutter.

But when she got to the gate and said she wanted to see Meng Xinian, hoping they would call him out of the Meng family’s home, the guard told her that Meng Xinian had already left.

Du Jinruo’s enthusiasm was snuffed out in an instant, as if doused by a bucket of water.

However, could she write a letter to him first?

Or maybe, call him in a couple of days?

If he truly wanted to know about this and was willing to see her, she could completely jump on a train to G Province!

Of course, Meng Xinian and Chiang Xiao knew nothing about these things.

After returning, Chiang Xiao was almost ready for her final exams, while Meng Xinian was preparing for his mission to protect the ancient tomb at Bai Gu Mountain.

He would arrive in Siyang Village even before Chiang Xiao.

Siyang Village was indeed much livelier than before now.

Many people came, attracted by the reputation, eager to see what the ancient tomb looked like and what had been unearthed.

Some believed that the presence of such a large tomb indicated excellent Feng Shui and were interested in that aspect.

Others came for archaeological research, for learning, to join in the excitement, or in hopes of discovering business opportunities.

Therefore, not only Siyang Village, but Peace Town had become a lot livelier as well.
