Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1670: Chapter 1672: No Explanation Possible

The next day, Cheng Cheng left.

Despite his worries about Ah Liu and Chiang Xiao’s relationship, he had to return to the Alliance District.

Besides, he trusted Chiang Xiao.

Once he left, Meng Xinian and Chiang Xiao, along with Ah Liu, got on the train to the Capital City.

The journey from here to the Capital City took a full two days and nights on the train.

The three of them were so strikingly attractive that many people approached them on the train. Men, women, young, and old—it was a bit overwhelming.

Once they got off the train, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

During the train ride, Chiang Xiao shared everything she could with Ah Liu.

She talked about her family, about Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao, about Ge Dejun’s family, and also about her teachers.

She spoke about the tea pastries and tea she made, about her paintings, about the awards she won; Ah Liu was full of admiration.

Then he asked about the Meng Family, about how the two of them met, and when he learned they were childhood betrothed, he scrutinized Meng Xinian for a long time.

He even sighed and said to him that childhood engagements should have been discarded as relics of the old society. Why would a young Supervisor Guard still accept a childhood engagement?

Meng Xinian told him it was because he liked Chiang Xiao, because it was her, that he didn’t refuse and was willing to get engaged.

Originally, he thought that by saying this, Ah Liu would feel gratified and appreciative. Well, of course, that’s also the truth.

But contrary to expectation, when he heard this, Ah Liu seemed inexplicably puzzled.

”At that time, Little was only thirteen,” Ah Liu just said this one line to him.

Then, the look in his eyes made Meng Xinian’s temples throb incessantly.

He’s not a beast, he’s really not a beast.

How could he explain himself?

At that time, in his eyes, Chiang Xiao really didn’t seem like a thirteen-year-old girl!

Truly!

In his view, she really wasn’t an underage girl; he always forgot her age!

Moreover, at that time, he simply thought that having such an engagement there was fine, so that his family wouldn’t arrange another match for him. It was merely for this reason, not because he wanted to pounce on Chiang Xiaoxiao at any moment.

He could guarantee that at that time, his feelings towards Chiang Xiaoxiao were truly pure.

However, these words, when spoken, seemed like no one was willing to believe them.

Not to mention anything else, why did he feel that Chiang Xiao didn’t look like a thirteen-year-old girl? She was clearly thirteen!

This was something Meng Xinian didn’t know how to explain.

It was just a kind of keen instinct he had.

So, others felt he was into a little girl, while only he knew he wasn’t.

Cough cough, it was only after Chiang Xiaoxiao grew a bit older that he started having impure thoughts about her, though now his head is full of impure thoughts about her, but honestly, when she was little, he really didn’t.

Unfortunately, he was destined to never have the chance to explain these things to anyone.

Even if explained, it would be of no use.

Previously Meng Xinian disdained explaining things to anyone, after all, outsiders didn’t matter to him; their thoughts and opinions couldn’t obstruct his and Chiang Xiaoxiao’s marriage.

But now it’s different.

Now he has a father-in-law.

Meng Xinian always felt that more challenges might lie ahead in his future.

So, seeing Chiang Xiaoxiao’s smiling face, he couldn’t laugh.

Chiang Xiaoxiao was naturally happy. If they delayed getting married until she was twenty or twenty-three or twenty-four, of course, she’d be happy, but he wasn’t willing to wait.

No, he had to plan carefully and make sure to marry Chiang Xiaoxiao as scheduled.
