Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1699: Chapter 1635: Finally Waiting for You

Especially in the past few days after drinking the medicine Chiang Xiao left behind, the improvement was quite noticeable.

By this logic, at this time he shouldn’t be speaking nonsense.

Yet he still said such things.

This made Meng Xinian have to think deeply.

Ah Liu caught his breath, opened his eyes, and as if he didn’t remember the words he just said, sighed slightly and said: ”Will Little be able to come back today?”

He didn’t know why, but even though he had only just met Chiang Xiao for a few days, after she left, he missed her especially, always worrying about her, wondering if she’d be tired or hungry outside, whether she’d catch the bus, if there was a seat for her on the bus, or if the person next to her would be a bad person who might bully her.

He thought too much.

He and Cheng Cheng had been bonded as foster father and son for so many years, Cheng Cheng often went out for missions, yet he never worried about or missed Cheng Cheng that much.

”She should arrive this afternoon.”

Not only did Ah Liu miss Chiang Xiao, Meng Xinian missed her even more.

Over the years, they had been apart more than together, often separated for half a year to only reunite for a few days. He always felt like he was just beginning a passionate romance now, that in the past five years, his relationship with Chiang Xiao had just started.

Ah Liu glanced at him and slowly said, ”The book says ’One day apart feels like three years’. Do you feel that way?”

Meng Xinian: ”...”

Is this the time to discuss feelings for his daughter with this man?

The atmosphere was slightly awkward.

He had no words to respond.

Ah Liu didn’t seem to want an answer either.

He looked at the rose wall in the courtyard for a moment and sighed.

”You all aren’t clear with me about my relationship with Little. I’m afraid my headache might scare Little, and I can’t force myself to remember. But have you ever thought about what if I never remember?”

”If you can’t remember, then you can’t remember. As long as you’re willing, you can always stay here.”

Of course, Meng Xinian still hoped that he’d be able to remember.

And also hoped that the Ah Liu who remembered everything would still treat Chiang Xiao well.

The little girl Chiang Xiaoxiao had a tough past, and having a father who cares for her is what he wished for her.

Ah Liu didn’t respond to this.

These past few days, their lives had been simple.

Meng Xinian occasionally took him out for a stroll, and sometimes they ate out.

They also bought groceries to cook at home. Ah Liu could cook, although only simple dishes, but it was already better than Meng Xinian, at least.

So, he learned boxing from Meng Xinian, and Meng Xinian learned cooking from him.

Because Chiang Xiao wasn’t around, Meng Xinian didn’t feel comfortable leaving him home alone, so he hadn’t gone back to the Meng Family or looked for Kuang Yunxian recently.

Occasionally someone from next door would come over, but since there wasn’t much noise or trouble, Meng Xinian hadn’t bothered about it for now.

The days passed quietly and calmly.

Except for both of them missing Chiang Xiao, there was no issue.

When Chiang Xiao returned, it was already getting a bit dark.

But when she saw the lights of her own home and thought of the two men inside, she felt a warm sense of comfort in her heart.

She quickened her pace towards that direction, only to see someone sitting on the threshold of a house ahead.

It was the same house of the family who was also disturbed by Kuang Guoming’s men before.

Chiang Xiao originally thought it was someone from that house and didn’t pay much attention.

But as she passed by, that person suddenly lunged at her.

”Little! I’ve finally waited for you!”

When Chiang Xiao heard that voice, her heart skipped a beat.
