Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1772: Chapter 1708 Stealing a Kiss First

He can say that, then...

”Dad, have you remembered everything? I mean, do you remember what home was like?”

”Yes, I remember most of it,” Ah Liu put down the pen and said, ”Little, you’re great at painting, how about I describe and you paint? See if we can paint the garden mansion I remember. With a painting, it’ll be much easier to find it, won’t it?”

Chiang Xiao immediately became interested.

”That’s a great idea, let’s get started now.”

She put down her bag and chose a roll of paper from the large vase, ”How large should we paint it?”

Ah Liu pulled out a roll of paper, ”This large, perhaps.”

This large...

Could his home really be that big? This could be a large painting.

”Alright.” Chiang Xiao spread out the drawing paper.

”Let’s take it step by step, starting from the place I remember most clearly,” Ah Liu pointed a little to the right on the drawing paper, ”Start painting from this position. First, a tall Phoenix Tree, tall and lush, blooming with a tree full of fiery Phoenix Blossoms. Under the tree, there’s a courtyard, arranged in a ’pin’ character shape, with white walls and green tiles...”

Ah Liu’s voice was low and smooth, and his description was very captivating.

Chiang Xiao quickly immersed herself in the ”home” he described, sketching out each scene as he depicted it.

If she drew something incorrectly, Ah Liu would correct her.

The father and daughter, one speaking and one painting, worked together seamlessly, and painted quite quickly.

Moreover, both were somewhat engrossed, losing track of time as they painted.

When both of their stomachs started growling, they suddenly snapped out of it and looked at the clock; it was already ten-thirty in the evening.

They hadn’t even thought about having dinner yet.

”Ah, it’s all my fault, dragging my precious daughter to slave away; I must have made you starving.” Ah Liu slapped his forehead, quickly taking the paintbrush from her hand and putting it down, ”Little, go take a bath quickly, I’ll cook some noodles, and they’ll be ready when you come out.”

”Dad, why don’t you go shower first, I’ll cook the noodles, I know how to.” Chiang Xiao thought it must have been exhausting for him to recall every detail so meticulously, and without letting him refuse, she pushed him towards the bathroom.

Ah Liu felt warmth in his heart and nodded, ”Having a daughter is truly wonderful.”

Chiang Xiao smiled.

She turned and entered the kitchen.

Just as she had grabbed a pot to cook noodles, she suddenly heard a thud from outside in the courtyard.

It sounded like someone jumped down from the surrounding wall.

Chiang Xiao’s expression changed slightly.

Could it be? Did some reckless thief break into their home?

She put down the pot and walked outside, only to see someone in the courtyard looking over at her, then revealing an incredibly charming smile.

”I thought you and Uncle Six were asleep, so I didn’t want to knock and wake you up. How come you’re still awake so late?”

As he spoke, he walked over to her, looking travel-worn.

Chiang Xiao was overjoyed at seeing him and immediately rushed over, throwing herself into his arms. ”Brother Xinian, why are you here?”

And so late too!

”I missed you.” Meng Xinian held her tightly.

Being in his embrace instantly calmed her heart, filling her with a strong sense of satisfaction.

”I was wondering, which thief has such great skills, able to climb over and jump down from such a high fence.” Chiang Xiao looked up at him playfully while in his embrace, touching his chin with a prickly sensation. He must have just rushed to the Capital City.

”You think I’m a thief?” Meng Xinian’s eyes were filled with deep amusement, ”Then I’ll steal a kiss first.”

With that, he leaned in to kiss her lips.
