Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2358: 2294: Into His Arms

Fourth Master Jiang gestured straight ahead.
Jiang Shiheng hesitated briefly, then gradually pivoted.
His gaze locked onto Lu Shuangshuang's eyes brimming with tears.
Lu Shuangshuang had wept ceaselessly for some time now, gripping a handkerchief thoroughly drenched.
Her tear-soaked eyes looked hazy, much like an autumn lake veiled in fine mist.
A refined nose and petite lips, complexion as pale as fresh snow, an elegant silhouette.
Lu Shuangshuang was certainly stunning.
Additionally, the tailored cheongsam she donned radiated sophistication, complemented by a jade bracelet on her arm that amplified her refined presence.
The current Lu Shuangshuang stood in stark contrast to the one etched in Jiang Shiheng's recollections.
During her younger days, Lu Shuangshuang carried a lively spark, her stare carrying a sharp edge.
Yet at present, Lu Shuangshuang exuded a calm and peaceful vibe overall, her eyes notably gentler too.
Gazing at Jiang Shiheng, her lips quivered as she rose unsteadily, whispering shakily, “Ah Liu…”
Jiang Shiheng let out a soft sigh and responded, “Sister Shuang.”
Sister Shuang.
Lu Shuangshuang pressed a hand to her mouth, tears streaming down her cheeks.
“I knew you wouldn’t forget me! All these years, I’ve been searching for you, waiting for you! I knew you would come back! Ah Liu, you’ve finally returned!”
She dashed toward Jiang Shiheng, almost leaping straight into his embrace.
Right then, Cheng Cheng abruptly moved in, positioning himself before Jiang Shiheng and stating firmly, “Godfather…”
His move felt spontaneous, like he needed to convey something urgent to Jiang Shiheng, oblivious to Lu Shuangshuang's impending charge.
He simply ended up wedged right in their path.
His abruptness caught everyone off guard, particularly Lu Shuangshuang, who failed to halt and bumped hard into Cheng Cheng's back.
The sturdy young Supervisor Guard absorbed the impact, sending her stumbling backward while she held her forehead, on the verge of toppling over.
Jiang Yunqing, positioned nearby, hurried to steady her.
“Sixth Aunt, be careful.”
The girl's clear, sharp tone heightened the awkwardness in the air even more.
Cheng Cheng spun to face the pair.
His brows knitted in apparent confusion as he inquired, “Who is this lady?”
His unexpected meddling already felt odd, and probing into Lu Shuangshuang's identity only irked the Jiang Family further, prompting scowls and glares of irritation toward him.
“Who is this Supervisor Guard? How did he get in here? Today is our Jiang Family’s…”
Fourth Master Jiang's expression grew stormy as he demanded.
“Oh, I’m sorry, I hadn’t had the chance to introduce myself yet, but I just remembered that my godfather just returned to D State and might be experiencing discomfort due to the change in environment, so he’s not feeling well these days. I wanted to remind him to sit down and talk.”
Cheng Cheng answered without a flicker in his demeanor.
Hearing his fabricated excuse, Chen Baoshen struggled to suppress a chuckle.
It was obvious to all that Sixth Young Master Jiang appeared healthy, with a steady flush, alert eyes, firm strides, and a poised stance, showing no signs of illness.
Cheng Cheng was obviously acting deliberately.
Yet he hadn't foreseen that what was clear to him might elude others.
Thus, some people actually took Cheng Cheng's words at face value.
Such as Old Master Jiang and Lady Eighth.
