Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2086: Chapter 2022: It’s Not Too Late

Aside from the registration, today’s banquet was just as they had envisioned. The food and drinks were excellent, everyone was enjoying themselves, and the conversation flowed seamlessly, creating a delightful atmosphere.

Moreover, Chiang Xiao and Meng Xinian both started addressing each other’s family elders with new titles.

Although they hadn’t married yet, in the eyes of everyone present, they were already regarded as a couple.

Seeing them reach this point brought relief and joy to everyone around them.

When Chiang Xiao called him ”Dad,” Meng Chaojun felt his eyes sting and his nose tingle. If he hadn’t forced it down, he believed he might have shed tears.

It’s only after losing something that you truly value it.

Fortunately, it’s not too late for him to change regarding Chiang Xiao and his son, Meng Xinian.

He was determined to do better, otherwise, the pride of being a father would be overtaken by his in-laws.

That night, Meng Chaojun couldn’t help but feel a sense of competition as he looked at Ah Liu.

Of course, no one knew about this.

After dinner, Chen Yin took Chen Baoshen and Wang Yi home, Cheng Cheng took Chiang Songhai and his group back to the hotel, while Chiang Xiao and Meng Xinian accompanied Ah Liu back to the hospital.

Old Meng and Meng Chaojun exchanged glances and thought of the two people at home, inevitably feeling a bit heavy-hearted.

”We must tell Xinian and Little about this sooner or later,” Old Meng sighed.

Meng Chaojun nodded, ”Maybe we should tell Xinian first. Little is still taking care of her father, right? Let’s tell Xinian first and let him decide whether to inform Little.”

”Don’t forget, the house is now under Little’s name, she has the right to know.”

”I haven’t forgotten.”

Meng Chaojun also couldn’t help but sigh, saying, ”But, Dad, what gives them the confidence to keep trying to take this house? Back then, although you promised them that the house would be shared with them, that was an agreement with Cheng’er, and Cheng’er is no longer with us...”

Chenger was the nickname of Meng Xinian’s mother.

Meng Chaojun hadn’t mentioned this name for a long time. He once thought he would hate this woman for a lifetime, but unexpectedly, when he mentioned her now, he subconsciously called her by her nickname, just as naturally as when they were in love.

When he realized this, he couldn’t help but be taken aback.

”Chenger, I will treat you well for the rest of my life.” The memory of their wedding night suddenly flashed in Meng Chaojun’s mind, sitting on their new bed, holding her hand, and making that promise.

Back then, Nian Chenger was as lovely as a blossom, her eyes full of affection, beautiful like a fairy.

He had never seen a woman as beautiful in his life.

Even now, even Duan Qingqing couldn’t compare to one-tenth of Chenger’s beauty in his subconscious.

But how did things end up this way?

The vows still echo, but the beloved is nowhere to be found.

”What are you thinking about?” Old Meng gave him a pat and said grumpily, ”Did you think I made those promises to the Nian Family for no reason? Back then, wasn’t it because your relationship with Xinian’s mother was so strong that I promised the Nian Family such things? I thought our two families would always be the dearest in-laws, but who would have known...”

Who would have known things would end up this way?

But what’s the use of saying this now?

”Anyway, we promised Cheng’er’s family, not Uncle Nian’s family,” Meng Chaojun said.

They had long been divided, and Cheng’er’s family had little to do with Uncle Nian’s family. When Nian’s father was alive, they had more interactions with his elder brother, but after his father’s death, Uncle Nian completely severed ties with them.
