Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1331: Chapter 1332: Who Is Unworthy of Whom

”Really? When I just came in, I happened to run into Old Chen, who proclaimed that he was going to choose the best match for Chiang Xiao from the entire Alliance District. I thought he was here on behalf of Chiang Xiao’s side to discuss canceling the engagement with your family.”

Director Wei said, ”Without hiding anything from everyone, my nephew is just twenty-five and is already a Great Officer in the Alliance District, definitely young and promising with limitless potential. He’s just been too busy with military affairs to handle his personal lifelong matters. As his uncle, I’m quite anxious. If Officer Meng feels that the connection with Chiang Xiao is too shallow, I hope you’ll notify me in advance. When the time comes, I’ll have my nephew take leave to return and strive for a good match.”

This time, not only did Meng Xinian’s face darken, but Old Meng also nearly choked with stifled frustration.

Having said that, Director Wei turned to take his leave, as if completely oblivious to how his few simple words had blown the Meng Family people away, leaving them at a loss.

”What, what, what does Wei Lengmian mean by this?” Old Meng patted his chest, feeling that he couldn’t withstand these consecutive blows anymore.

Meng Xinian ground his teeth.

What was he to do when he suddenly wanted to shrink his niece Little down and hide her in his pocket?

”What does it mean? It seems that Doctor Chen considers our family unworthy of matching with Little,” he sneered coldly. ”And Wei Lengmian has always been cunning and deceitful with eyes sharp as anything. He must’ve come across Little’s good points while investigating Xu Yiqiu and now wants his nephew to take her.”

Old Meng’s face felt both burning and painful.

What did this mean?

Did everyone think that the Meng Family wasn’t good enough for Little?

Meng Chaojun was also shocked and bewildered.

Was it not that Chiang Xiao was the one climbing high to reach the Meng Family and should be incredibly grateful?

Wei Lengmian’s nephew, he knew about him. If Meng Xinian was a star on land, Wei Yixi was a star in the sky.

A twenty-five-year-old Great Officer, handsome and smart, a name and file often appearing at the top levels.

And with Uncle Wei behind him, the Wei Family was considered a marriage prospect many elite young women dreamt of entering, definitely not inferior to the Meng Family.

Now Director Wei was also regarding Chiang Xiao so highly!

These few words had revealed so much, truly rendering Old Meng and Meng Chaojun speechless for a long while.

Chiang Xiao returned at this moment and saw Meng Xinian standing grimly by the door. She thought it was because of Duan Qingqing and patted him on the shoulder.

”Feeling that bad?”

Hadn’t he been prepared for this before?

Besides, these things shouldn’t be enough to put him in such a bad mood.

Meng Xinian caught her hand and held it tightly.

Before speaking, Old Meng, already somewhat uneasy, waved to Chiang Xiao, ”Little, come here, come here. Grandpa’s asking you, what did you say to Doctor Chen?”

Chiang Xiao raised an eyebrow but didn’t come over, simply saying, ”Grandpa, I’ve had quite a few words with Grandpa Chen, which one do you want to hear?”

Old Meng was stunned.

He finally sensed a clear change in Chiang Xiao’s attitude towards him.

”Little, there is some trouble in the family but...”

Chiang Xiao interrupted him, ”The Meng Family’s affairs, I will not interfere with in the future; you handle them yourselves. Even if worse comes to worst, there’s still Brother Xinian.”

”We will return to City M together tomorrow afternoon,” Meng Xinian said in a low voice.

”Alright.”

Chiang Xiao didn’t wish to stay any longer.

This murky and stifling atmosphere was suffocating.

”This is your home, we are all family,” Old Meng said.

Chiang Xiao broke into a smile.

”Here, the only one I consider family is Brother Xinian,” she said directly, without sparing Old Meng any further consideration.
