Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1874: Chapter 1810: Officer Meng’s Hard Work

When they had almost finished handling the medicine, Chen Baoshen gestured to Chiang Xiao, ”Come, let’s go inside. Grandpa Chen has something to say to you.”

When they walked past a medicine cabinet and went around to the back, Chiang Xiao discovered there was another door there.

Meng Xinian wanted to follow, but Chen Baoshen turned his head and said to him, ”Officer Meng, would you mind waiting here for a moment?”

What he wanted to tell Chiang Xiao was, after all, a secret of the Jiang Family. Whether Chiang Xiao would share it with Meng Xinian afterward was not his concern, but for now, Meng Xinian couldn’t hear it.

Moreover, with Meng Xinian standing guard outside, Chen Baoshen felt more at ease.

”Brother Xinian, will you wait for me here?” Chiang Xiao immediately gave Meng Xinian’s hand a gentle shake.

Seeing her like this, how could Meng Xinian say no?

He nodded, leaned against the door, and gestured for them to go in with a wave of his hand.

”Sorry to trouble Officer Meng to be a guard this time.” Chen Baoshen smiled slightly and let Chiang Xiao support him inside.

As Chiang Xiao was entering, she quickly turned her head, pouted slightly at Meng Xinian, and blinked.

”Thank you, Officer Meng.”

This girl.

Seeing her like that, Meng Xinian couldn’t resist wanting to pull her into his arms and kiss her.

She had such a strong allure over him, she could get a reaction from him with just about anything she did.

Chiang Xiao stuck out her tongue and shut the door behind her. She only felt a little guilty about having Meng Xinian stand guard outside; she wasn’t genuinely trying to flirt with him.

”This is my break room; I’ve been staying in the hospital these days.” Chen Baoshen sighed, pulled over a chair to sit down, and without being formal with Chiang Xiao, he said, ”Xiao Chiang, pour Grandpa a glass of water, I’m thirsty, haven’t had a chance to drink water this afternoon.”

Chiang Xiao observed his complexion; he did indeed look tired and dehydrated.

She took a small packet of tea leaves out of her backpack, ”Grandpa Chen, let me brew you a cup of tea.”

”Is it tea you’ve made yourself?”

”Yes, I brought two small packets with me, I’ll leave them for Grandpa Chen.” As she spoke, Chiang Xiao began to brew him some tea.

Chen Baoshen was delighted, ”Good, good. I know you’re skilled, and you’ve invested in a tea garden, haven’t you? Your tea is excellent; Grandpa Chen is in for a treat.”

Chiang Xiao brewed a cup of tea and handed it to him, ”Grandpa Chen, be careful, it’s hot.”

”Ah. Sit, Xiao Chiang, sit down.”

Chiang Xiao also pulled up a chair to sit opposite him.

”It’s like this, I’ve heard some things recently from the Madam and the Old Master, I don’t know if you’re aware, like about the Lu Family?”

Chiang Xiao shook her head.

When it came to the Jiang Family’s matters, she knew very little.

”Lu Shuangshuang?”

”Grandpa Chen, I don’t know anything about that.”

”Then I’ll tell you, but you must keep it a secret for me and don’t betray me.”

Chen Baoshen told Chiang Xiao everything he had heard.

Upon hearing that there was a woman who had waited for Ah Liu for twenty years, Chiang Xiao was stunned for a long moment.

She had wondered about it before, she had thought about it too, with the conditions of the Jiang Family and Ah Liu’s looks, even when he was just a fifteen- or sixteen-year-old boy, he surely could have stirred the hearts of many young girls.

She had wondered, what if Ah Liu had a sweetheart back then?

But she had no idea that someone had such deep feelings for him that they had waited all this time!

Twenty years.

It truly was the most beautiful twenty years of a woman’s life, how could they pass just like that?

In those twenty years without marrying, the pressure must have been immense.
