Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1373: Chapter 1374: You Have Wronged Her

”Xiao Chiang, you should be credited with a great merit for this!”

Chiang Xiao looked at the brilliant sunshine outside, paused for a moment, and said, ”Officer Yang, I don’t need any credit. I made this call to request that you keep my involvement out of this. Pretend that it was the soldiers who rescued Meng Xinian.”

Yang Zhiqi was stunned.

Who wouldn’t want the credit?

Besides, Chiang Xiao’s merit was indeed not trivial!

But Chiang Xiao was not being merely polite, she genuinely did not want it.

After returning, she had completely calmed down. If possible, erasing her involvement in this matter was absolutely a good thing for her.

Anyhow, she did not need the credit. Helping Meng Xinian was also a personal desire; she didn’t want to use this matter to compete for merits.

Later on, when the military weapons and antiques returned, those were the merits of Meng Xinian and his team. They nearly paid with their lives.

What was her contribution in comparison?

”Xiao Chiang, I will discuss this with Meng Xinian when the time comes.”

”Alright, but I know Brother Xinian will agree and support this.”

Chiang Xiao was not wrong.

Three days later.

Only then did Meng Xinian and his team fully transported back everything in batches.

Upon knowing Chiang Xiao’s decision, Meng Xinian patted her head, ”My family’s little girl is really good.”

Chiang Xiao always felt like his daughter.

With Meng Xinian’s arrangement, the matter of Chiang Xiao saving them was covered up.

The credit was given to Gong Xinhe and his Supervisor Guard Teammates.

Gong Xinhe and his teammates fell silent after knowing.

However, the teammates at the fort noticed that these people under Meng Xinian, in front of this seventeen-year-old girl, were as tame as anything and showed her extraordinary respect.

Chiang Xiao stayed there for three days, and they all hurried to help her with tasks, fetching water, getting meals, and even frying for her a kind of local bugs, crispy and fragrant.

Furthermore, each of them called her ’Sister-in-law’ very loudly.

Chiang Xiao was somewhat helpless.

She originally planned to go back first, but Meng Xinian asked her to wait another two days.

Their mission was already completed, and there was even an unexpected pleasant surprise; the batch of military weapons and antiques earned him a great merit again.

Once the wrap-up work here was completed, he could return to City M with her.

So Chiang Xiao could only report safety to everyone concerned and waited for him.

By the time she and Meng Xinian embarked on their journey home, she had already been out almost half a month.

Four more days were needed for the journey home.

But at least, she would make it in time for the college entrance exam.

When they started their homeward journey, Yang Zhiqi made a call to Old Meng.

”Old Meng, I always thought I respected you deeply, but without you, there wouldn’t be today’s Yang Zhiqi,” Yang Zhiqi said. ”But regarding this matter with Chiang Xiao, I have to admit to you, the Meng Family, we have wronged Chiang Xiao. You and Alliance Officer Meng, have wronged Chiang Xiao.”

After hanging up, Old Meng remained silent for a long time, sighing deeply.

The entire way home, naturally, it was not appropriate to say anything.

But Chiang Xiao noticed a change in Meng Xinian, when she rested, he no longer cared about others’ gazes, always holding her tightly in his arms, allowing her to lean on his chest.

Four days later, the two, weary and dusty, returned to City M, back to their home.

Upon seeing them, Chu Liang breathed a sigh of relief and said, ”Perfect timing, Officer, Sister-in-law, I’ve received a message, someone said they’ve seen someone who looks like the lady’s brother, I need to go check it out, and I was worried I’d leave after you guys returned without keys.”

Chiang Xiao didn’t mention that she always kept the keys to their house in her space, so Chu Liang worried they wouldn’t have keys to get in.

”Is there news?” Meng Xinian was stunned.
