Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1100: Chapter 1101: Could It Be The Start Of A Doomed Affair?

Her husband had always felt that Chiang Xiao had cured her body, making her healthy again, and therefore he was grateful to Chiang Xiao, while she, on the other hand, felt that it was Chiang Xiao who had gradually brightened up her husband’s shadowed heart, illuminating it.

For that, she was grateful to Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Xiao accompanied Liu Guoying to the Capital Art Academy. Fortunately, they had originally set out to find a guesthouse nearby, so it was just a short walk to get there.

”Teacher, I won’t accompany you to find Director Jin, I’m going to take a look at the art exhibit.”

The art exhibit had already started, and it was only now that she found a bit of time to take a look; later, she still had to rush back to the Meng Family.

Moreover, she aimed to participate in the exhibit, and before the selection of the works, she felt it was inconvenient to go to Director Jin’s office to look for him.

Today, at Director Jin’s place, her teacher had to be the only protagonist.

Liu Guoying was actually a bit nervous, but he was trying not to let Chiang Xiao see it and said seriously, ”Do I still need you to accompany me? Go on, go see the art exhibit.”

He shooed Chiang Xiao away as if he were chasing away a fly.

Chiang Xiao walked toward the exhibition hall.

It was still early, and the exhibit had just opened shortly before, but there were already quite a few visitors.

Chiang Xiao entered and immediately saw a piece by Xu Yiqiu.

Chaos.

The name of the piece was Chaos.

But it depicted a flowing stream with a woman lying beside it, her dress opened up to her thigh, her expression vacant, her gaze possessing a kind of magic that made others feel lost as well.

Looking at art, a hundred people have a hundred different feelings.

This piece was now receiving rave reviews, but after Xu Yiqiu’s incident later on, it also faced considerable controversy; some even directly interpreted it as a portrait of Xu Yiqiu herself, suggesting that her personal love life was chaotic.

Now, looking at this painting through the divide of another life, Chiang Xiao also felt somewhat sentimental.

”What do you think of this painting?” A voice suddenly rang out beside Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Xiao turned her head and saw Chen Yin intently observing the painting before him.

”What do you think?” Unable to express her feelings about the painting due to the memories of his entanglement with Xu Yiqiu from a previous life, Chiang Xiao asked instead, ”How come you’re here?”

”I’ve brought Little Yi here, and I thought I’d take a look while I’m at it. I heard that the exhibited works are all for sale, and my newly-renovated office is a bit empty. I came to find a suitable painting to hang up.”

He said, pointing to a card beneath the painting.

Following his finger, Chiang Xiao saw the price tag on the painting.

Seventy-six thousand.

In this era, a painting priced at seventy-six thousand was indeed expensive.

”I wouldn’t have guessed,” Chiang Xiao smiled and said, ”I thought you would directly ask me to paint one for you, rather than thinking of spending seventy-six thousand on a painting.”

She really found it quite strange.

Chen Yin lowered his voice and leaned in a little closer to her, saying, ”Sister-in-law, when I was parking just now, I almost ran into Xu Yiqiu.”

Chiang Xiao’s heart gave a skip.

So this was how Chen Yin and Xu Yiqiu’s fate began?

”We don’t have women who dress like her in our country,” Chen Yin remarked, ”It’s so cold, and she’s wearing a short silk skirt, bright red high heels, and then a long coat that comes down to her calves, black in color. I was kind of stunned.”

Chiang Xiao: ”...”

Xu Yiqiu wasn’t traditionally beautiful, but she had an innate charm that emanated from within.
