Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2272 - 2208: Tell Her to Get Lost (For Lan Rong+)

"Who are you searching for?"

Chiang Xiao inhaled deeply, then stated, "I’m here for Meng Xinian."

Meng Xinian?

The guard's eyes instantly widened. "You're looking for Great Officer Meng?"

"Yes."

Was such astonishment truly necessary?

Internally, Chiang Xiao couldn't help but feel a touch of apprehension.

"You're the young lady introduced to Great Officer Meng by one of the sister-in-laws, correct?" The guard's demeanor softened immediately, and he regarded her with a hint of curiosity.

At that moment, he mumbled something to himself, almost inaudibly.

Logically, Chiang Xiao should not have caught it; however, her hearing was significantly sharper than an average person's, allowing her to not only hear but comprehend every single word.

"Which sister-in-law introduced her? This one is the prettiest. Great Officer Meng is truly fortunate; three have arrived consecutively!"

Chiang Xiao's expression remained neutral, yet inwardly, she was already preparing for battle.

Three?

Excellent, simply excellent.

Great Officer Meng is indeed quite lucky.

So busy, constantly occupied, too busy to return to the Capital to see her, and yet...

He had better not let her enter and find him with another woman, or else...

Chiang Xiao took another deep breath, offered a slight smile, and clearly articulated, "No, could you please inform him that my name is Chiang Xiao, and I am Great Officer Meng’s fiancée."

"Fi-fiancée!"

The guard nearly bit his tongue in surprise.

Chiang Xiao nodded.

"Yes, we are getting married very soon, so you could also say I am Great Officer Meng’s wife."

Chiang Xiao had anticipated feeling intensely embarrassed uttering such words, but now that they were spoken, she felt no embarrassment whatsoever.

Could it be because she was currently brimming with a fervent fighting spirit? Burning with intense fervor?

"Well, uh, comrade, please wait here. I will go and inform him."

Meng Xinian descended from the training field, catching the jacket Dai Gang threw to him. He quickly donned it, wiping sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, his expression one of irritation.

Dai Gang watched him, suppressing a laugh.

"Great Officer, isn't this excessive? Putting on a jacket over sweaty clothes; you'll just have to wash it when you get back."

Hadn't he always just worn a T-shirt or even returned shirtless for a shower?

Now, he emerged from the training field meticulously buttoned-up.

When had he become so reserved?

Meng Xinian cast a cold glance at him.

"Have you, without my notice, suddenly become as talkative as Zhao Erleng?"

Dai Gang immediately fell silent.

The Great Officer seemed on the verge of snapping; he had no desire to trigger that volatile situation.

At this moment, someone rushed over, shouting, "Officer Meng! Someone is here looking for you!"

Upon hearing this, Meng Xinian felt an urge to explode.

First came Long Xiaocai, who still hadn't departed, and then yesterday arrived Zhai Cuixin!

Now, merely hearing that someone was looking for him ignited his fury.

He resolved to speak with those individuals; if they didn't control their wives and allowed those sister-in-laws to continue their reckless behavior, he would resort to force!

"Tell her to go to hell! I'm not seeing her!"

Meng Xinian roared.

The messenger was stunned.

Even Dai Gang was taken aback.

Great Officer truly was about to snap.

Observing Meng Xinian rip the towel from his shoulder and storm off, Dai Gang looked at the messenger and quietly inquired, "Is it another woman who came?"

The messenger nodded vigorously. "It’s a woman, and she’s quite pretty."

"Seriously? My sister-in-law is the true beauty. How could they possibly find someone prettier than my sister-in-law?"
