Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2299 - 2235: Do You Know Who I Am

If Meng Xinian had chosen a fragile girl who wept and shrieked at the mere thought of a confrontation—someone cowardly who would be terrified by his physical intensity—he would likely lose his mind.

Therefore, a girl like Chiang Xiao truly seems to be the perfect match for him.

It is only natural for Meng Xinian to be drawn to such a woman.

After all, they share the same temperament.

Long Xiaocai never anticipated that Chiang Xiao would be so bold; no matter how she racked her brain, she couldn't believe the girl dared to act out in front of so many witnesses.

Was she not worried about making things difficult for Meng Xinian?

Did she have no fear of gaining the reputation of a "shrew" and bringing shame upon him?

Furthermore, how could Meng Xinian actually like someone of that nature?

In Long Xiaocai's mind, adults should settle disputes through a battle of verbal wit—using tongues like knives and lips like swords. Even if one hid a dagger behind honeyed words to kill invisibly, that was considered a refined skill.

But a person like Chiang Xiao, who strikes with her fists without uttering a single word, was behaving like a child or a common hooligan.

"Chiang Xiao, do you even know who I am!"

She stood there glaring at Chiang Xiao, her body shaking with fury, yet having felt Chiang Xiao’s power earlier, she didn't dare to rush forward again.

Besides, she didn't consider herself a savage.

Still, she hadn't intended to reveal her background in this manner; she had always felt that explicitly stating her identity was a sign of weakness, but Chiang Xiao had forced her hand.

She believed that only by declaring her status would Chiang Xiao feel a sense of dread.

Surely then, Meng Xinian would pull Chiang Xiao away and prevent her from landing another blow?

And once Zhao Ren, Dai Gang, and the others realized who she was, they would undoubtedly take her side, wouldn't they? Once they stood with her, they would surely view Chiang Xiao’s behavior as utterly excessive.

When the entire group began to criticize her, let’s see if Chiang Xiao could still stand her ground!

Indeed, sometimes a high status is a very useful tool.

Being born into the right family is a skill in itself; she was naturally born better than others, so what of it?

Having thrown down her gauntlet, Long Xiaocai looked at Chiang Xiao with arrogance, waiting for her to timidly inquire about her family background.

To her surprise, Chiang Xiao merely let out a cold sneer.

"Heh, I don't care about your identity. Don't try to use it to intimidate me; I'm so 'scared' that I might just beat you until you have to crawl on the ground to find your teeth."

She had never relied on status to suppress others.

Identity?

Truth be told, her current standing wasn't inferior to anyone else's.

But what was the point of using one's background to bully others?

Everyone here is an independent adult. If you have the ability, solve the problem yourself—why run to your father or mother for help?

It was simply childish.

A sudden burst of laughter rang out, coming from someone who couldn't contain themselves before they awkwardly stifled it.

Chiang Xiao turned around, looked toward Meng Xinian, and said: "Brother Xinian, since everyone has brought gifts, why don't we let them sit down and enjoy themselves together."

"I'll listen to you," Meng Xinian replied with an immediate nod.

At this moment, he was perfectly content to project the image of a henpecked husband. So what?

Others wished they could find a wife capable of keeping them in check, but such women were hard to find.

Chiang Xiao helped Old Yang and Aunt Yang to the sofa. "Big Master, Aunt, please have a seat. I'll serve you some soup first." After saying this, she headed into the kitchen, acting as if Long Xiaocai outside didn't even exist.

Chen Yujun and the others felt quite awkward.

Among the group, only he and his wife were aware of Long Xiaocai’s true identity, and both of them felt extremely uneasy.
