Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1928: Chapter 1864: That Woman

”That would be such a waste. This hotel is so big, can it ever be fully booked? If only a few people stay here, what’s the point of building it so large?” Liu Guoying shook his head.

Chiang Xiao pressed her lips together and smiled.

It seems unbelievable now, but after the nineties, rapid development set in, and from then on, the grandeur of hotels surpassed one level after another.

By then, when Liu Guoying recalls what he said today, he’ll definitely be quite moved.

Pheng Fei led them into the hotel, and the lobby truly deserves to be described as magnificent and resplendent, spacious and grand.

The hotel staff all wore uniforms with beige and blue accents, looking particularly elegant.

Liu Guoying secretly felt that people do need to travel; only after going out can you witness things never seen before, broadening your horizons.

He glanced at Chiang Xiao but found she was much more composed than him, not like him, looking everywhere as if his eyes couldn’t take in enough.

Furthermore, having crossed the border to such a place, Chiang Xiao still walked with her head held high, back straight, looking confident and unafraid.

Seeing Chiang Xiao like this made him feel immensely proud.

In his heart, Chiang Xiao was like his own child, so seeing her perform so well, naturally, he was filled with great pride and comfort.

In the future, Chiang Xiao will definitely go further and achieve greater things. In the past, he had no hopes, just living day by day, only wishing for his wife’s health to improve a little. They didn’t need to live to a ripe old age; after all, the first half of life was a whirlwind of displacements and facing dear ones’ life and death partings, with little to look forward to. Just being able to spend a stretch of time with his wife was enough.

But now he hopes to live a little longer, so he can see how high Chiang Xiao will soar.

”The check-in procedures are completed. A bellboy will help you with your luggage and take you upstairs. I have some things to attend to, so you can rest for a while first,” Pheng Fei looked at his watch, ”I will come back in about two hours to take you out to dinner, is that alright?”

Chiang Xiao thought for a moment and said, ”Let’s go out to eat by ourselves, no need for you to make a special trip.”

Pheng Fei gave her a radiant smile.

”Don’t forget, for the next ten days, I’ll be your personal assistant. I’ll center everything around you and handle all matters for you. Don’t worry about troubling me, because if you don’t rely on me, Mr. Wen Li might think I’m not doing my job well.”

He said this with a bit of humor, prompting a laugh from Chiang Xiao.

”If I need anything, I’ll definitely look for you.”

Pheng Fei left, and Chiang Xiao and Liu Guoying went to their rooms to settle their luggage, freshen up and tend to personal tasks.

Liu Guoying’s room was right next to hers. Chiang Xiao knocked on the door; Liu Guoying said he felt a bit tired and wanted to rest a while longer, asking if they could delay going out to eat for half an hour.

Chiang Xiao couldn’t wait and headed to the front desk to ask for Meng Xinian’s room number.

Initially, they didn’t imagine they would be staying at the same hotel, so Meng Xi hadn’t told her his room number, otherwise, she could have just looked for him directly.

However, the reception staff informed her that they could not freely disclose guest information.

No matter how much Chiang Xiao pleaded, they refused to comply.

Chiang Xiao, with no other choice, turned to head back to her room.

But just as she turned around, she saw Meng Xinian coming in, with a woman walking in front of him.

The woman walked ahead, her hair was neatly styled in a bun at the back of her head, wearing a black coat and black leather shoes, with a smooth forehead, delicate features, and a contradictory yet attractive air of fragility and competence.
