Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1986: Chapter 1922: Mr. Mad Dog

Chiang Xiao smiled slightly.

Then she continued in stylized Chinese, ”Then how can you understand my Chinese, Mr. Vicious Dog?”

”Who are you calling...?” Wilson was infuriated by her calling him a vicious dog, and instinctively wanted to rebuke her. As soon as the words left his mouth, he realized it was a mistake, but it was too late.

Chiang Xiao switched to English. ”It seems, sir, that you understand our language. Does that mean you find our language quite charming?”

Wilson’s expression changed slightly, the mocking smile frozen on his lips.

Luna and the others saw that he was actually at a disadvantage, unable to hold his own against Chiang Xiao, and their expressions changed slightly, as they began to reassess Chiang Xiao’s capabilities in their minds.

Several others who originally intended to mock her changed their minds after witnessing Chiang Xiao’s sharp tongue, swallowing their words.

The maid was initially a little worried.

With the masters not around, she didn’t know how to handle any conflicts that might arise here.

This oriental beauty was clearly someone both Mr. Wen Li and Pheng Fei showed respect to. If she were to be bullied into tears here, it would be difficult for her to explain later.

Unexpectedly, in the face of such a situation, this seemingly delicate young girl remained calm and composed, counterattacking powerfully and taking control of the situation.

Seeing that others were also intimidated by her, none dared to cause trouble anymore.

The maid couldn’t help but show Chiang Xiao extra respect.

She had been specially appointed by Pheng Fei to escort Chiang Xiao because she had been at the manor for quite some time, had been with Mr. Wen Li for a while, and had always performed well and had keen insight.

Therefore, she could tell that Chiang Xiao was not someone to be easily bullied, and if Mr. Wen Li and Mr. Arthur regarded her highly, there must be a reason.

”Miss Chiang, your seat is here, please sit.”

She led Chiang Xiao to the second seat to the right, next to the main seat.

The first seat was Pheng Fei’s, meaning she was only separated from Mr. Wen Li by Pheng Fei.

This placement already showed considerable regard for her.

Because of this, others couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy inside.

Among the female artists here, there were only four, apart from Luna, two others—one nearing forty and the other around thirty. Both seemed quite elegant.

After Chiang Xiao sat down, she took note of everyone’s expressions.

It was clear that she was the youngest, followed by Luna.

”Miss Chiang, you arrived a bit late, what were you up to?” Luna inquired.

Seeing Chiang Xiao enter the dining room, Luna was genuinely a bit disappointed. Earlier, she’d heard that someone had broken into the Perfume Laboratory, and with Chiang Xiao missing, she wondered if it was her. If it indeed had been Chiang Xiao, she would have been thrilled, as offending Mr. Wen Li would not only get her disqualified but also result in unknown consequences.

After all, Luna simply couldn’t stand Chiang Xiao, nor liked the idea of a young Oriental girl standing on equal footing with her, competing together.

But now that Chiang Xiao had appeared, and with Mr. Wen Li and Miss Tina not returning yet, it suggested that the intruder wasn’t Chiang Xiao. Luna was genuinely disappointed.

”Nothing much, I just moved slowly and tidied up a bit,” Chiang Xiao smiled slightly.

She felt no obligation to explain herself to Luna.

Besides, it wasn’t even late for her to arrive now, after all, the hosts were still busy with their matters.
