Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s-Chapter 2522 - 2458: Not Exactly Even-Tempered

"Mmm, anyway, it’s just us eating, so we don’t need to be too particular about plating and presentation. The most important thing is it tastes good, and that’s enough."

Meng Xinian nodded immediately.

"You’re absolutely right."

After Chiang Xiao sat down and picked up her chopsticks, she suddenly thought of Chen Zhu in the study, and her action of picking up food paused.

"Brother Xinian, has she woken up?"

Meng Xinian naturally knew who she was asking about.

He had been checking on her from time to time, but found that Chen Zhu was still unconscious, showing no signs of waking up.

By now it’s been two hours.

He shook his head. "Not awake yet."

"She wouldn’t stay unconscious for several days, would she?" Chiang Xiao frowned.

If Chen Zhu stays unconscious for several days and can’t eat, would she have to feed her Spring Water?

She truly wasn’t willing to do that.

Even using a bit of Spirit Spring Water on Chen Zhu, she was unwilling.

"Probably not, but we can’t be sure yet. Let’s observe for a while. If she doesn’t wake in three or four hours, you can give her some water."

They were just about to eat when someone banged on the door outside.

Hearing the rude knocking, Chiang Xiao and Meng Xinian exchanged a glance.

Clearly, the visitor was not friendly.

"You go hide Chen Zhu." Meng Xinian stood up.

Chiang Xiao immediately ran to the study and hid Chen Zhu in the Space, then grabbed some perfume and sprayed a bit around the study and on herself, just in case.

After all, she had just gone into the Space to take a shower and nap, and didn’t have this floral scent on her, only her own scent. If the visitors were those she needed to guard against, it would be troublesome.

All this took just a few dozen seconds.

Chiang Xiao returned to the dining room, sat down, and casually picked up her bowl to eat.

She picked up some shredded eggplant with pork, finding the taste quite good, though slightly salty, it was perfect with rice.

It seemed Meng Xinian had a talent for cooking; she would let him learn more from Grandma Yang in the future.

Outside, Meng Xinian had already opened the courtyard door, and a few Public Security Officers immediately walked in.

"Comrade, hello, we received a report that you illegally detained someone’s fiancée."

The leading officer spoke clearly without even seeing Meng Xinian’s face.

It was already night, and the courtyard lights were dim.

They only saw Meng Xinian’s silhouette, but his tall and strong figure looked full of an attacking force. Thus, their hearts tightened slightly, secretly readying themselves.

Meng Xinian immediately knew they came for Chen Zhu.

So it was Nian Che who reported to the police.

He sneered, realizing they were indeed trying to play games.

Well, they never provoked others, yet people kept coming at them. If they wanted to play, let them play.

He would oblige.

"Officer, I do have a fiancée here, she’s eating inside. Why would I go capture someone else’s fiancée? I’d be killed by my future wife."

Inside, Chiang Xiao heard what he said and almost spat out her food.

"Cough, cough, cough."

She coughed uncontrollably.

This Tyrant Meng suddenly became mischievous.

What does he mean by being killed by a future wife?

She would have to be able to beat him for that to happen.

Several officers exchanged glances after hearing his words, "Anyone else in the house?"

"Just me and my wife, the two of us."

"Would you mind if we take a look around?"

"You can search, but please don’t rummage too much, because my wife’s temper isn’t very good."

"Cough, cough, cough!"

This Tyrant Meng!

Why does he keep using her to make a point!
