Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2195: Chapter 2131: It’s Your Fiancé

”Yes, I’ve already finished eating. I’ve already told Jin Lei, and he’ll take care of the rest,” Chiang Xiao said with a smile at Director Jin.

With his father here, there should be no problem making his son work like this, right?

Luckily, her dad was also here, so she wasn’t left out alone.

Seeing the teasing and pride in her eyes, Director Jin understood what she meant and couldn’t help but chuckle.

”I think Xiaolei likes being with you, so you can bring him along to play with you when you’re free.”

Director Jin didn’t know much about it until just recently. Liu Guoying told him a lot about Chiang Xiao, including how she brilliantly fought back after being bullied. After hearing all this, he didn’t feel any dislike toward her; instead, he thought she was really remarkable.

How could someone get to where they are today without being a bit tough?

By chance during the conversation, he noticed Jiang Shiheng’s eyes glistening with tears.

After Ye Wanqing left, he briefly explained why he wasn’t around Chiang Xiao when she was young, leaving her childhood vulnerable to rumors, making both him and the principal sigh.

It turned out that Chiang Xiao had such a complicated background and had lived so hard before.

Her current success is a testament to how strong, brave, and smart she is.

It’s understandable for her to have a bit of a fiery temperament.

Moreover, Chiang Xiao wasn’t aggressive in front of them at all; she was very gracious and polite. It seems she just has a personality of ”if you don’t mess with me, I won’t mess with you, but if you do, I’ll repay you a hundredfold.”

That’s good.

Chiang Xiao shook her head and said, ”Jin Lei isn’t a kid; he doesn’t need me to take him to play. Moreover...” She paused, looked at the principal, ”Principal, you’ve met Great Officer Meng, right? Sorry, I didn’t introduce him before, he’s my...”

”Fiancé, I know,” the principal interrupted her.

Previously, Liu Guoying had explained to them why Chiang Xiao got engaged so early.

Of course, it was embellished a bit.

For instance, he added that Meng Xinian saw that she was having a hard time at the Chiang Family in Siyang Village and wanted to help her out of such an oppressive environment, so he got engaged to her at such a young age to give her support.

Of course, this wasn’t something he just made up.

There was indeed some truth to what Meng Xinian intended back then.

After the villagers of Siyang Village learned that Chiang Xiao had a fiancé who was a Supervisor Guard, they cooled down a bit and dared not bully or insult her openly or secretly.

After hearing these, even the principal felt a bit of pity for Chiang Xiao.

With such a background and growing environment, it’s amazing that Chiang Xiao was able to teach herself painting and achieve such success today.

Seeing Old Li, they could imagine how those troublemakers were.

So, the principal wasn’t opposed or offended by the fact that Chiang Xiao got engaged so early.

Meng Xinian, being so young as an officer, also showed he was a promising young man.

Chiang Xiao was taken aback, not expecting such a reaction from the principal.

How much did her teacher talk about her?

Liu Guoying was so thirsty from talking that he had been drinking tea ever since Chiang Xiao came in.

”I think Great Officer Meng is a good comrade, Chiang Xiao. Of course, you mustn’t give up painting in the future; it would be a pity if you did. I just heard Mr. Jiang say that you were planning to get married quietly but postponed it because of his surgery?”
