Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2168: Chapter 2104: Different from Her

If it weren’t for Song Xingbai, she wouldn’t have let Du Jinruo come in, making it seem like they were very familiar with each other.

But now, seeing Du Jinruo like that, she didn’t know why she felt a bit uneasy. Honestly, a girl like Du Jinruo should have been a favored daughter of heaven.

”It’s mine. But, I can’t sing, dance, or play instruments either.”

Du Jinruo looked at her, stunned for a moment.

Why did she feel that Chiang Xiao’s words had a comforting tone?

But after thinking about it, she thought it couldn’t be. Given her relationship with Chiang Xiao, it’d be good enough if Chiang Xiao didn’t hit her when she was down, let alone comfort her.

No matter what, Chiang Xiao’s words made her feel a bit better.

”Brother Kuang, thank you for tonight, for getting someone to inform us.”

The driver said a scholarly-looking man asked him to relay the message. As soon as she saw Kuang Yunxian, Chiang Xiao knew it was him.

This situation tonight was partly her oversight.

She thought that in this era it wouldn’t be so chaotic, that there shouldn’t be hooligans causing trouble, but she hadn’t realized it was already like this.

So she had decided that once Meng Xinian’s comrades arrived, she would arrange for a couple to be at the tea house to prevent disturbances and theft.

Otherwise, it’s a bit dangerous here with only women.

A tree that stands out among the forest gets destroyed by the wind.

But even so, one must strive for improvement in business.

”Xiao Chiang, why so formal with me? I didn’t even help much.” Kuang Yunxian smiled wryly.

Upon seeing Chiang Xiao’s reaction, he knew where the difference between them lay. He would choose the moderate path, making peace in everything, while Chiang Xiao was clear about love and hate, daring to fight and charge forward.

Those people couldn’t even dream of taking something from her.

Meng Xinian was the same—if Chiang Xiao couldn’t handle something, he would be her strong support. He had never seen Meng Xinian stop Chiang Xiao from doing anything.

So indeed, they were the most suitable for each other.

”I’m already very grateful.” Meng Xinian added, ”Brother Yun Xian, is there something you need?”

Hearing Meng Xinian’s question, Kuang Yunxian couldn’t help but laugh again, knowing nothing could be kept from Meng Xinian.

”I’ll talk about my issue later. Does Xiao Chiang need to handle the shop affairs?”

”Then Brother Xinian, brew some tea.” Chiang Xiao looked at the shop assistant, ”What’s wrong with your face?”

The shop assistant had seen Chiang Xiao before but didn’t know she was the boss. She was now trying to recall if she did anything wrong during her last visit.

Hearing Chiang Xiao ask, she quickly recounted the events of the day and glanced at Kuang Yunxian when she mentioned taking two cans of tea.

Kuang Yunxian immediately said, ”I asked her to take them. I’m sorry, Xiao Chiang, I was just trying to calm the people down then.”

”There’s nothing to apologize for. I understand Brother Kuang’s approach.”

Chiang Xiao still felt grateful; there were the master’s wife and these female shop assistants in the store then. If something happened to them, no amount of money she earned could make up for it.

”Brother Kuang’s approach is the right one for you. What I want to convey is that if you encounter danger in the future, your primary concern should be your personal safety. The shop’s possessions can be sacrificed considering the situation; don’t worry too much about me.”

Chiang Xiao’s words left the female shop assistant stunned.
