Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2254: Chapter 2190: Did the Fried Dough Stick Offend You?

Long Xiaocai paused for a moment at his question, then said, "Of course I’ve already submitted the report, and Deputy Director Chen has signed it and sent it up."

She was about to continue talking when Meng Xinian, expressionless, bypassed her and ran towards his own dormitory.

As he ran past, Long Xiaocai caught a whiff of his scent.

It was a crisp, slightly sweaty smell.

Strangely enough, it was really pleasant.

A man drenched in sweat still smelling so good, Meng Xinian was the first she had encountered.

She turned around, looking at his back, her face slightly warm.

Not bad.

Before, she just thought Meng Xinian met her criteria. If she wanted to have a child, the father obviously had to be carefully chosen, the conditions had to be the best.

So, Meng Xinian was very in line with her conditions.

She originally thought she wouldn’t be significantly interested in such a "child’s father candidate," but now it was obvious that this man piqued her interest.

Marrying such a man wouldn’t be so bad, actually.

As for having an intimate relationship with him, she didn’t resist the thought at all.

The gaze from behind, Meng Xinian couldn’t ignore it at all.

Of course, it’s not that he cared about Long Xiaocai’s following gaze, but he felt doomed.

Yesterday, his Little had solemnly told him not to let other women see him, and he failed to do so.

Not only did she see him, but she also saw him in a tight shirt, drenched in sweat.

Meng Xinian didn’t need to ask to know that woman was the one Sister-in-law Chen had mentioned introducing the day before.

That dorm was Chen Yushan’s, and Sister-in-law Chen was his wife. If the woman came out of his dorm early in the morning, who else could it be but the one introduced by her?

He had no interest in that woman at all; in fact, he felt repulsed.

Because as he ran past, he distinctly heard footsteps in the room, suddenly followed by the door opening.

This meant the woman very likely saw him returning through the window, timed it just right, and opened the door just as he passed to stop him, conveniently having an excuse to talk to him.

This kind of woman’s scheming was exactly the type he despised.

Chiang Xiaoxiao told him not to let that woman see him, so what now? He felt a bit guilty.

Although it seemed it wasn’t exactly his fault.

Meng Xinian showered and was about to head to the canteen for breakfast, but reconsidered, went to a small cabinet, opened a drawer, and took out a can of jerky.

Forget it, better to have jerky for breakfast. What if that woman went to the canteen to block him, how would he explain it to Chiang Xiaoxiao then?

Chiang Xiao was eating breakfast while eying a piece of fried dough on her plate.

Hmm, hmm, hmm, what if Tyrant Meng was eating breakfast in the canteen too, and that woman sat down right across from him?

"Little, what are you thinking about?" Ah Liu had been observing her for a while and couldn’t understand what was going on with her.

After all, it was just a fried dough stick, so why was she chewing it so forcefully while glaring at it?

Did the fried dough stick offend her?

Chiang Xiaoxiao came back to her senses and said, "Nothing."

"Is the fried dough not tasty?"

"No, it’s quite good."

"I thought your teeth weren’t doing well, and you couldn’t chew it, that’s why you were angry at the dough stick." Ah Liu couldn’t help but laugh.
