Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2253 - 2189: Her Favorite Type

Furthermore, the most critical issue remained: that girl had actually traveled to Anbu Town, regardless of whether Tyrant Meng had rejected the idea or not.

The camp in that area was quite small. If she were brought inside by one of the wives residing there, Meng Xinian would find it difficult to simply chase her away, wouldn't he?

After all, the camp wasn't his personal property, and he wasn't the sole authority in charge there.

Besides, wasn't Meng Xinian’s dormitory situated right next to where those wives lived?

If they were merely neighbors separated by a single wall, and that girl happened to be staying next door, they might run into each other at the entrance. They could exchange affectionate glances, or she might bashfully call out "Great Officer Meng" or "Big Brother Meng" while whispering shy words...

The mere thought of it was incredibly aggravating!

Even if Tyrant Meng didn't approve, could he actually use force against a girl in that setting?

Would he really ignore military discipline?

The more Chiang Xiao dwelled on it, the more her anger simmered.

She tossed aside the quilt and climbed out of bed to go wash up.

Inevitably, her mind drifted to how Tyrant Meng appeared every morning upon waking. With water droplets clinging to his face as he washed, he didn't look quite so cold yet. In those moments, Tyrant Meng was breathtakingly sexy.

Did the camp dormitories feature private bathrooms, or were there only shared washrooms?

What if there was only a public sink?

If that were the case, would that girl stand close by, her eyes filled with an "electrifying" spark while watching Tyrant Meng wash his face?

Chiang Xiao shook her head vigorously to clear the image.

"No, no, why am I letting my thoughts spiral like this?"

She pressed a damp towel against her face, allowing the cool sensation to refresh her mind.

She had never felt this awkward or insecure before.

Was it because she had truly kept Tyrant Meng waiting for too long? Was she subconsciously terrified that his feelings for her might have withered over the years?

Perhaps, having lacked a "proper meal" for so long, his physiological resistance to other women might have weakened?

Ironically, she hadn't worried in the past; it seemed the longer their relationship lasted, the more anxious she became.

She let out a long breath, forcing herself to settle her emotions before stepping out of the bathroom.

That same night, the girl known as Little Cai did indeed stay overnight at the camp.

Meng Xinian followed his usual routine, heading out for early morning practice. When he returned to the dormitory drenched in sweat, he passed by Chen Yushan’s quarters. Just then, the door swung open, and a girl wearing a thick tracksuit stepped out, blocking his path.

"Ah!"

She appeared startled and lightly patted her chest. Raising her eyebrows, she looked directly at Meng Xinian and spoke clearly, "Great Officer Meng, you nearly frightened me to death. Aren’t you going to offer an apology?"

Meng Xinian gave her a cold glance. "Non-camp family members are required to report their presence if they intend to stay overnight. Did you report? If you didn't, I will be reporting Chen Yushan."

This man...

Long Xiaocai truly hadn't anticipated that Meng Xinian would be this frigid.

She had heard rumors about his temperament, but seeing him in person proved he was even more heartless than people said.

Who would immediately threaten to report the deputy assistant who hosted them upon their very first meeting?

She had planned to start with some pleasantries, at least ensuring he learned her name first, but he hadn't even bothered to ask who she was.

Nevertheless, as she stared at the tall, muscular man dressed only in a short-sleeved army green T-shirt, she couldn't stop her heart from pounding wildly.

Such an intense aura of masculinity was exactly what she desired.
