Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2297: Chapter 2233: Ran Into a Ghost When Going Out

”It’s just a meal together, why are you all making such a fuss?” Old Yang asked.

At this moment, Sister-in-law Yang brought in Long Xiaocai with dishes, each carrying a tray with two dishes on top. Long Xiaocai, carrying a plate in her hand, walked in with a smile.

Seeing so many people standing there staring at each other, the two of them were also a little surprised.

Long Xiaocai glanced at Meng Xinian, smiled slightly, bypassed Sister-in-law Chen, placed the dishes on the table, and then said to Meng Xinian, ”Great Officer Meng, I personally made these two dishes. I offended you before, please don’t mind. Later, I’ll drink three toasts to you with soft drinks instead of wine. Let’s leave it at that, shall we?”

Meng Xinian’s face darkened.

Hearing her speak, he pursed his thin lips tightly, didn’t say a word, and instead, took three steps back, putting some distance between them.

Then he called toward the kitchen.

”Honey, I need you to handle this.”

Long Xiaocai: ”...”

What does this mean?

Everyone was stunned.

Even Old Yang and his wife were a bit bewildered.

Chiang Xiao walked out of the kitchen, raised an eyebrow upon seeing Long Xiaocai, then asked Meng Xinian, ”Brother Xinian, what do you need me to handle?”

”Didn’t you say I can’t say even a word more to other women? So, if someone needs to be asked to leave, you do it.”

Ask someone to leave...

Chiang Xiao almost laughed.

But then, thinking that it was his doing after all, she responded irritably, ”What’s it got to do with me?”

For the first time, Long Xiaocai was treated like this. Her face, no matter how thick-skinned, started to feel hot.

She looked at Chiang Xiao and said, ”Chiang Xiao, I know I’ve been somewhat unfair to you with Great Officer Meng, so I came here to apologize to you...”

Chiang Xiao immediately waved her hand, ”Wait, what did you just say? You and Brother Xinian are seeing each other? How are you seeing each other? Where are you seeing each other?”

Meng Xinian gritted his teeth, ”Seeing each other my ass! When have I ever seen her? Was my brain run over by a tank, or did I run into a ghost? Why would I be so out of my mind?”

This statement was admittedly a bit harsh.

But Meng Xinian rarely showed a nice face to any woman other than Chiang Xiao, let alone such a shameless one.

When had he ever seen her?

”If entering the barracks means I’m seeing someone, then who knows how many times Sister-in-law Chen and Sister-in-law Zhao have seen me!”

Sister-in-law Chen’s face changed slightly, and she couldn’t help but glance guiltily at Chen Yujun.

She knew this was definitely botched again.

Who would have thought Long Xiaocai would dare to talk nonsense?

And who would have thought Meng Xinian would dare to give Long Xiaocai no face?

Chen Yujun was so angry his face turned green, glaring at her.

This troublemaking woman!

He thought she genuinely wanted to come and apologize to Meng Xinian and Chiang Xiao. Who knew she dragged Long Xiaocai into the mix?

Isn’t this just causing trouble?

Long Xiaocai’s face felt burning hot, as if she had been slapped several times by Meng Xinian.

She gritted her teeth.

She really didn’t expect Meng Xinian to be so ungentlemanly, not giving her any face at all.

She is a woman, after all. Saying this, he should have considered her dignity and not specifically clarified the issue.

But she really didn’t expect Meng Xinian to be unwilling to take the slightest blame.

If Meng Xinian knew her thoughts, he would certainly sneer at them.

She’s crazy. If he took the blame, how could he face Chiang Xiaoxiao?
