Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2090: Chapter 2026: I Love You

Even the best bodies get tired out sometimes.

She still needs to carry on, she won’t push herself too hard.

“Alright, then I won’t stand on ceremony with you.”

“I’m your brother, why be so formal with me?” Cheng Cheng chuckled.

“Okay, Brother, then tonight you’ll have to work a bit harder, and stay with Dad. When he wakes up, give him the potion to drink. I’ve put it there, and there’s also a bottle in this bag that you can drink too.”

Chiang Xiao had also left a bottle for Cheng Cheng; after drinking it, he’ll feel more energized.

“Alright, understood. Go on home now.”

Meng Xinian looked at him, then took Chiang Xiao’s hand, “Let’s go.”

They stepped out of the hospital, and as the cold wind blew, Chiang Xiao shivered slightly.

“Cold?”

“I’m okay.”

Chiang Xiao glanced at him, only feeling that Tyrant Meng’s silhouette under the streetlight looked incredibly attractive—his facial lines were clear and handsome, too charming.

“What’s up, lost in thought?” Meng Xinian noticed her gaze and couldn’t help but laugh gently.

Chiang Xiao said, “Brother Xinian, thank you, and I’m sorry.”

Thank him for tolerating everything about her, for considering things from her perspective, always prioritizing her no matter what, willing to step back time and again.

Meng Xinian paused, turned to face her, and reached out to tousle her hair. “Didn’t I tell you? Don’t thank me, and don’t apologize. If you have to say it, how many times should I repeat it to you?”

What she did for him, for saving him countless times, is not something a simple thank-you could cover.

So, between them, such matters never needed measuring.

Chiang Xiao lifted her gaze, staring into his deep eyes, “But aside from this, I truly don’t know what to say.”

He’s been waiting for this marriage for so long.

Today, she was overly worried about Ah Liu, leaving her no time for him, and now it was just the two of them left; a slight pang of guilt resurfaced.

Meng Xinian said, “You can say…” He gazed at her, leaned down, and whispered in her ear, “You like me, you love me.”

Chiang Xiao’s face heated up, feeling his breath on her ear, making the ear warm too.

“Do you want to say it now or wait until we’re home?” Meng Xinian teased.

“Who says that while chasing someone?” Chiang Xiao playfully pushed him away, then quickly ran ahead.

Meng Xinian’s lips curled into a smile; he chased after her.

“Want to have a race, see who runs faster?”

“Sure!”

Chiang Xiao accepted the challenge without hesitation.

Under the streetlight, the two began to run.

Soon, Meng Xinian had already run ahead.

Long legs truly had their advantage, and indeed, Chiang Xiao couldn’t quite keep up with him.

Their home was already in sight, the alley where their house was located came into view.

Meng Xinian stopped and waited for her to catch up.

In the night, under the glow of streetlights, he watched as Chiang Xiaoxiao ran deftly towards him, her long hair fluttering, with a red dress that made her resemble a little fairy.

She was stunning.

She ran toward him like she was running right into his heart.

Chiang Xiao finally reached him, stopped, and with eyes sparkling like stars, she looked at him and said, “Meng Xinian, I love you!”

She spoke these words clearly, unmistakably firm.

Meng Xinian always knew her voice was lovely, but it was most melodious when she uttered this sentence.

She just blurted it out, catching him off guard.

He originally thought she would be embarrassed to say it.

Never imagining that she would not only say it but say it so loudly.

It felt as if fireworks suddenly burst open in the sky above him.
