Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2369 - 2305: Let Wei Lengmian Handle It

Previously on Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s...
Chiang Xiao agrees to change her surname to Chiang, becoming Chiang Xiao, with Old Master Jiang's reluctant but supportive approval, emphasizing her happiness above all. The family plans to update her records immediately, aligning the change before her upcoming marriage to Meng Xinian. Old Master Jiang encounters Cheng Cheng in the courtyard, inquiring about his work in the Third Alliance District and instructing him to address him as great-grandfather while reserving the best spot for Chiang Xiao. Later, Chiang Xiao calls Meng Xinian to share the name decision and updates from D State, with him endorsing the change and suggesting Old Meng handle the administrative paperwork for efficiency.

"Fine, I'll head to the Meng Family and seek Grandpa's assistance."

Chiang Xiao realized that while residing in Capital City, she rarely made visits to the Meng Family.

Even though she harbored certain resentments toward Old Meng and his son, they remained the grandfather and father of Tyrant Meng, after all.

For that reason alone, it was essential for her to check on Meng Chaojun's current condition.

"Okay. Little, I'm heading to the Enclosed Camp next week, and it could take up to five days before I return, during which I won't be able to reach you."

"Five days..." Though Chiang Xiao felt a twinge of reluctance deep down, she knew there were no alternatives and responded, "All right, I understand."

"That's my good girl."

Meng Xinian ended the call and let out an involuntary sigh.

He had distinctly picked up on the letdown in Chiang Xiao's voice, yet circumstances left him no choice.

Given his position, he simply couldn't remain glued to her side at all times.

A strong intuition told him that his name would definitely appear on the deployment roster for Ke Ku Li.

As such, attending the Enclosed Camp for rigorous specialized training was necessary, ideally to get comfortable with weapons usable in Ke Ku Li or those that might receive support from there.

Besides, this conflict differed greatly from their past assignments, requiring him to absorb plenty of fresh information.

Yang Zhiqi entered the room, took a seat opposite him, and began massaging his temples.

"We've received solid confirmation from the higher-ups. Supplies are being donated to Ke Ku Li, and teams will accompany the shipment, though it's unclear yet if it'll be a full unit or a handpicked squad—the decision should come soon, within the next couple of days."

He had participated in a meeting earlier that day.

"No matter the result, I'm off to the Enclosed Camp tomorrow," Meng Xinian stated evenly.

"So you're set on going?"

"If my name's on the list, then yes."

"And what about Little?" Yang Zhiqi noticed how much more he seemed to worry about Little these days.

Meng Xinian hesitated briefly before replying, "Little will get it. Naturally, while I'm away, I'd appreciate you watching over her too."

He felt immense relief for having summoned Sun Han and the others previously; with companions around Chiang Xiao now, his mind eased a bit.

Suddenly struck by a thought, Meng Xinian inquired, "Uncle Yang, are you familiar with someone known as 'Second Master'? He's around thirty-something, and his marksmanship is outstanding."

He reserved "Uncle Yang" for Yang Zhiqi only outside of Alliance business.

Using that term signaled he was broaching a private topic.

Yang Zhiqi knitted his brows and pondered deeply.

"What does he look like?"

"Nothing too standout about his features, but his bearing stands out remarkably. From his posture and grip on a firearm, it looks like he has Alliance background."

Yang Zhiqi reflected further and suggested, "I remember some classified dossiers that could cover individuals who departed the Alliance in unusual ways. You might file a request to access them and check."

Meng Xinian gave a nod.

"What sparked this question out of nowhere?"

"Ran into him in Country Y earlier; Little mentioned he's returned domestically and appears to have his sights on her, now posing as a businessman."

"Turned businessman? That's..." Yang Zhiqi sensed a growing discomfort.

Should Meng Xinian deploy to Ke Ku Li, he'd need to stay vigilant over Chiang Xiao.

This situation...

Meng Xinian declared, "I'll have Wei Lengmian look into him."

This individual warranted scrutiny from Director Wei's division.

"Sounds good."

Yang Zhiqi was well aware of Wei Lengmian's expertise.

Once he zeroed in on a target, it would prove difficult for that person to cause issues for Little.

Chiang Xiao remained oblivious to their ongoing concerns for her safety.

With the day off in hand, she intended to proceed with changing her name right away.
