Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1312: Chapter 1313: I’ll Go with You

”It seems Meng Chaojun was not only sick, but also hadn’t had marital relations with Duan Qingqing for a long time, right?”

”Whose child is this that Duan Qingqing is carrying?”

With these guesses weighing heavy on her mind, she quickly went to see Chen Yin.

Chen Yin, however, was waiting for Meng Xinian.

But Xu Yiqiu had arrived and Meng Xinian had not.

He could only chat with Xu Yiqiu for the time being.

Since yesterday, after being chastised by Chiang Xiao and Meng Xinian, Chen Yin had been reflecting on his relationship with Xu Yiqiu.

Seeing her now, obviously having made a special effort to dress up, something clicked in his heart.

Dressed in a red gown, setting off her skin as white as snow, her charm emitted a particularly natural allure.

And it was already evening.

Coming to see a man alone, dressed so carefully, what did this imply?

Could it be that Xu Yiqiu actually harbored some feelings for him?

Chen Yin’s heart skipped a beat.

”Teacher Xu, you’re here.”

”Yes, I got held up a bit by something and came a bit late, you wouldn’t hold it against me, right?” Xu Yiqiu’s tone was tender, making it sound especially affectionate to Chen Yin.

He was slightly embarrassed and said, ”It’s fine, I just got off the phone with Little Yi.”

At this moment, he subconsciously brought up Wang Yi, also making clear his relationship with Wang Yi. If it wasn’t for Chiang Xiao and Meng Xinian pointing it out several times, he really didn’t have much of an impression.

Maybe he did have feelings, but subconsciously he felt a bit elated, thinking that even Xu Yiqiu, a famously talented and charming painter known both domestically and abroad, could fall for him, admire him, which felt like a highly dignified and face-saving matter.

But after being told off several times by Meng Xinian and Chiang Xiao, he suddenly felt a bit shameless.

What about Wang Yi?

Ultimately, he wasn’t the kind of man who genuinely wanted to toy with women’s feelings; he truly wanted to marry Wang Yi, and his family also approved of her as their daughter-in-law. He had finally gained the approval of Wang Yi’s parents as well as her uncle, the dean of the art school, who was also very kind to him.

If he were to get involved with Xu Yiqiu...

Just thinking about crossing that line with Xu Yiqiu, possibly causing a major upheaval, a big mess, Chen Yin suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

The image of Wang Yi crying miserably appeared in his mind.

”Miss Wang must have had strict family upbringing, right?” Xu Yiqiu sat next to him, began making tea for him. ”If you get married, Miss Wang will become a businessman’s wife. I remember there’s an old saying in China, ranking scholars, farmers, craftsmen, and merchants, with merchants being the lowest rank. Do they still hold that view now?”

”That’s just a minority, things have changed, and everyone’s views will slowly change too,” Chen Yin said, smelling the perfume on her, again feeling slightly uncomfortable.

”Is that so? By the way, I came today to tell you about Chen Qi. Although I’ve found out where she is, I heard she went traveling to a small town with classmates and can’t be reached there. I’m thinking of going back tomorrow, going to that small town to look for Chen Qi for you.”

At the mention of Chen Qi, Chen Yin’s expression became excited, ”Really? Wouldn’t that be troubling you to make a special trip?”

Xu Yiqiu blinked at him, looking a tad pitiful, ”It is quite troubling. That small town has poor security, and I doubt I’ll find anyone to accompany me. Those young boys and girls think it’s thrilling and always run off there.”

These words carried a double meaning; I’m afraid to go alone, while Chen Qi might be in danger there.

Chen Yin was stunned.

”Then why not, I’ll go with you!”
