Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2988: Chapter 2924: Not Sure Who She Would Protect

”Little, are you really not coming home this time? Won’t you visit your great-grandfather?”

”No, it’s inconvenient right now. The Dark Star people might still be watching. Dad, you be careful too. Don’t hide anything from me; remember to call me immediately if anything happens.”

”Okay.”

Sun Han and Yue Yang had returned to the house, and Jiang Xiao handed them the things she brought this time. Each of them took a bag, feeling its weight.

”Sun Han, sorry to trouble you to stay by my dad’s side.” Jiang Xiao apologized with a look at Sun Han.

”No trouble.” Sun Han shook his head. He was following orders anyway, and staying next to Sixth Young Master was also working for Jiang Xiao.

The same.

Besides, he had great respect for Sixth Young Master now.

Moreover, when Jiang Xiao gave him a blue cap like she gave to Sixth Young Master, he was deeply moved, realizing the value of the item only after drinking it.

Jiang Xiao also gave him a blue cap, which showed that she equally cherished his life.

With such a boss, he was willing to do anything for her.

”You escort my dad back, be careful.”

Jiang Shiheng extended his arms and hugged Jiang Xiao again.

”When you get married, I’ll come with your great-grandfather. In the meantime, you shouldn’t come; it’s too exhausting.”

Though he was reluctant to let her go, Jiang Shiheng said this for her benefit.

”Alright.”

”Are you going to see Ah Cheng?”

”We’ve already informed him, he’ll be over later, but deliberately missed the time with you, so as not to attract too much attention.”

”Hmm, that’s a good thought. Little, then Dad will head back first.”

Jiang Xiao watched their departing backs, feeling a bit of a lump in her throat.

Meng Xinian held her shoulder, slightly applying force.

”Don’t cry. In the future, there will always be chances to see Dad whenever you want.”

”Hmm.”

The things Jiang Xiao gave this time included half of the Thousand Mile Talisman Diagram, though it was hidden deep.

Just in case anything happens, she can reach Jiang Shiheng immediately, otherwise she will always feel unsettled.

More than half an hour after Jiang Shiheng and his party left, Cheng Cheng came over by himself.

Seeing Jiang Xiao and Meng Xinian, he strode over and punched Meng Xinian on the shoulder.

Meng Xinian didn’t move at all.

”Weak.”

Moreover, he gave that one-word evaluation.

Cheng Cheng snorted.

”I’m not really going to fight you; in front of my sister, she wouldn’t know who to protect.”

”You’re overthinking it, my wife stands by me without a second thought.” Meng Xinian said expressionlessly.

Jiang Xiao listened on the side, feeling speechless.

”You guys chat, you chat. I’m going for a walk on the beach, maybe pick some shells or something.”

It felt more interesting than staying here and listening to them bicker childishly.

Also, last time she came, she didn’t have the time or mind to really look at the sea. This time, she plans to take a proper look, and maybe paint a seascape when she gets back. The hall over there doesn’t have a suitable painting yet; hanging a large seascape will surely be beautiful.

With wooden furnishings and a wall-sized seascape, she can pretend she’s facing the sea with spring flowers blooming.

If she adds a few strokes with the Magic Brush, sitting in the hall in the future would feel as if the slightly salty sea breeze is blowing, and the sound of waves is almost audible.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiao indeed became interested, really not caring about Cheng Cheng, and pushed the door to leave.
