Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1650: Chapter 1652 The Same Expression

Cheng Cheng noticed his expression, raised an eyebrow, and said lightly, ”Officer Meng, Chiang Xiao is still young.”

Meng Xinian’s eyes flashed with a spark of anger.

What, since when did he have to interfere in his and Chiang Xiaoxiao’s business?

However, Cheng Cheng didn’t give him the chance to get angry. His gaze went past his shoulder and looked at Chiang Xiao, ”Let’s go out for dinner, I know a place with really good ramen.”

Chiang Xiao had already suppressed her embarrassment and shyness. She slung her backpack, walked out, and gently patted the person blocking the door, Meng Xinian, saying, ”Brother Xinian, let’s go eat.”

Meng Xinian looked down at her.

Chiang Xiao’s heart skipped a beat at his gaze.

It’s increasingly dangerous to be alone with him, really dangerous.

”Let’s go, there’s also a kind of biscuit here that’s very tasty, even Godfather likes it,” Cheng Cheng said as he walked ahead, leading the way. ”Let’s buy a few first, taste them while having noodles, and tomorrow before getting on the bus, buy more to take back to him.”

”Alright.”

”Chiang Xiao, this way, be careful, there’s a pit on the road.”

”By the way, the noodles at the restaurant are really good, though the place looks pretty average, you don’t mind, right, Chiang Xiao?”

”They add beef and have a special sauce made by the owner. You should try a bit first. Some people love it, but others can’t stand the taste. But it doesn’t matter, if you don’t like it after trying, you can give your bowl to me. Every time I come, I have two bowls.”

Meng Xinian’s frown was deep enough to squash a fly.

He was about to lose his patience.

Cheng Cheng used to be a completely quiet guy, barely talking to anyone in the Alliance District, so why was he now a chatterbox?

And it’s like he’s completely ignoring his presence and only talking to Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Xiao sneaked a glance at Meng Xinian, already noticing his expression was as dark as Bao Qingtian’s.

She quietly hooked her finger with his.

”It’s okay, if I can’t finish, I’ll give it to Brother Xinian. Brother Xinian isn’t picky, right?”

Meng Xinian’s frown finally eased a little, and he squeezed her hand before letting go. ”Hmm, if you can’t finish, just give it to me.” Saying this, he looked at Cheng Cheng, his tone slightly cold, ”Officer Cheng, watch your words and actions, being too casual can easily lead to mistakes.”

Cheng Cheng just smirked, not responding to his words.

Chiang Xiao always felt there was a sharp tension between them.

The things Cheng Cheng just said seemed to be more as a provocation to Tyrant Meng rather than speaking to her.

This Cheng Cheng, deliberately trying to make Tyrant Meng uncomfortable, wasn’t he?

However, in the end, Chiang Xiao didn’t give her noodles to anyone; she ate them herself.

She found the kind of biscuits Cheng Cheng mentioned really delicious too, eating two in a row, and she finished a bowl of ramen with the owner’s homemade sauce, even feeling she could eat more.

After three days on the road without properly eating anything hot, she now felt starved.

”Alright, don’t eat too much, or your stomach will feel uncomfortable later,” Meng Xinian pulled her hand to stop her, otherwise, Chiang Xiao might have drunk all the remaining soup.

”Delicious.” Chiang Xiao pursed her lips with a lingering expression, her eyes again looking at the bowl that had just been served at the next table.

Cheng Cheng suddenly chuckled.

”You know? Once I brought Godfather here to eat noodles, after finishing, he had the exact same expression as you.”

Exactly the same.
