Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1639: Chapter 1641: The Figure in the Dream

Chu Liang walked in, and Chiang Xiao immediately canceled the idea of making a phone call, quickly pulling him aside to ask about that person’s situation.

”Huh, didn’t Great Officer Meng tell you?” Chu Liang seemed surprised, ”I heard he already has news about Ah Liu.”

Chiang Xiao was stunned.

What?

There’s news about that person already?

”Why didn’t he tell me?” Chiang Xiao was somewhat puzzled.

Meng Xinian knew she was looking for someone. If there was news, shouldn’t he be the first one to tell her?

Chu Liang quickly said, ”I was delivering something to the camp earlier, and heard Great Officer Meng mention it. He might be waiting for you to return to tell you.”

Upon hearing this, Chiang Xiao could no longer hold back and dialed Meng Xinian’s number.

The call was quickly answered.

However, it wasn’t Meng Xinian.

”Great Officer Meng hasn’t returned yet.”

”Where did he go? When will he be back?”

”Just went to the mountains, should be back in a couple of days. Who is this? When he returns, should I tell him who’s looking for him?”

Chiang Xiao reported her name.

It seems their competition is in the mountains, no wonder he hasn’t been able to contact her.

Chiang Xiao had to suppress her anticipation and excitement, calming herself down.

That night, she fell asleep looking at the painting and dreamed.

In the dream, there was always a figure in a white shirt lingering.

A man, he seemed to be running continually, as if searching for someone.

In the dream, Chiang Xiao could feel his anxiety and worry.

What was he worrying about? What was he anxious about?

When she suddenly woke up, the sky outside was just beginning to lighten, she realized she was drenched in sweat.

In this weather, she sweated so much; it seems she was running in the dream too?

Was it because she thought about him during the day and dreamed about him at night?

Was the person she dreamed about the one she was looking for?

At least, in the dream, it felt like she could truly see him, even though his face wasn’t clear.

Chiang Xiao sighed; since she couldn’t fall back asleep, she simply got up, changed into sportswear, and went out for a run.

After running back, the courtyard door was open, a tall figure came into sight.

”Brother Xinian!”

Chiang Xiao was immediately overjoyed upon seeing him, and quickly ran over.

Meng Xinian hadn’t seen her in quite a while. As soon as he saw her, he instinctively opened his arms to welcome the rushing girl, and when she leaped into his embrace, he tightly hugged her.

”So diligent?”

He came early, initially thinking she might still be asleep, at most practicing boxing in the yard, but she had already left.

”Of course, I’m never lazy when it comes to exercising, so I’ll have a chance to beat you someday.” Chiang Xiao gently nudged him, stepped back, leaving his embrace.

The door was still wide open, it wouldn’t be good to be seen.

Meng Xinian looked at her greedily and chuckled softly.

”Want to beat me? You’ll have to keep working hard; there’ll be a chance.”

Chiang Xiao looked at him, her eyes filled with joy. ”Why did you come so early?”

”It’s not that early. We returned to the camp at dawn, and then Xiao Qian told me you called me yesterday. How could I sit still? I naturally took a shower, changed clothes, and came right over.” Meng Xinian reached out and pinched her nose, leading her to the small lake in the backyard.

Here, Chiang Songhai had placed two chairs. Sometimes he and Ge Liutao would sit here and look at the lake, and Xue Liujin found that fishing could be done here, making the Chiang family’s place a leisure and relaxation spot too.
