Chapter 253: Chapter 253: You, Zhao Erleng Chapter 253: Chapter 253: You, Zhao Erleng Chiang Xiao rubbed her forehead.
Why did she also feel that it was so strange?
But, was this misunderstanding not absurdly over the top?
How old was she?
If Captain Meng really had a crush on her, sheâd have to poke his wound and scold him a couple of times for being a pervert. Wasnât she too young for this?
âCaptain, Captain Meng, hello,â Chiang Songhai said, seeing Zhao Xin and not being very nervous, but he felt very tense seeing Meng Xinian. He saw the shadow of that very imposing Alliance Officer he had once delivered medicine to on Captain Meng.
Maybe it was because they both had that kind of tall build and were very serious people.
He said they could call him Little Meng, but his aura was too strong, how could Chiang Songhai and the others dare?
Seeing him there made them all uncomfortable, and seeing that none of them had any serious injuries, Captain Meng slightly nodded and left first, âXinzi, come out.â
Zhao Xin followed, scampering after him.
Once they were in the garden, he excitedly said, âCaptain, why are you here?â
âTell me, did you do something stupid?â Captain Meng was incredibly sharp, and the way Chiang Songhai and the others looked at him, along with Chiang Xiaoâs glare at Zhao Xin, were telling him that this blockhead must have done something foolish.
Zhao Xin scratched his head, feeling somewhat defeated.
âCaptain, can this really be blamed on me? You always told me over the phone to treat Chiang Xiao like a sister-in-law and to call her âSister-in-law.â Afraid that I might slip up, I rehearsed it for a long time, hypnotizing myself to call her âSister-in-lawâ as soon as I saw her.â
âHmm,â Captain Meng touched his nose feeling slightly uneasy, âAnd then?â
âAnd then, that day, in front of her grandparents and uncle, I, I justâŠâ
Captain Mengâs face darkened, âYou called her âSister-in-lawâ?â
Zhao Xin lowered his head and took a quiet step back, his voice as quiet as a mosquitoâs, âYeah, I called, called her that.â
Captain Meng really wanted to kick this blockhead back into the ravine.
How could someone so dumb be under his command?
âZhao Erleng!â he pointed at him through gritted teeth.
âCaptain, isnât it okay if I admit Iâm wrong?â Zhao Xin took another step back.
The Captain was truly frightening now.
What good was admitting a fault? The mistake had been made, the words had been said.
Now Captain Meng finally understood why everyone was looking at him with those eyesâthey probably all thought he was a bad guy, right? One of those men with unhealthy mentalities! They might even believe he was seducing Chiang Xiao because she was too young, right?
If it wasnât for his face that looked too serious and righteous, and the Supervisor Guard uniform he was wearing, they would probably hack at him with knives.
âYou little brat! I will deal with you when we get back!â
Captain Meng turned and headed towards the outpatient area, deciding to first clean and change the dressing on his wound. âKeep up! Report to me in detail everything that has happened these past couple of days!â
âYes!â Zhao Xin hurriedly followed.
Meanwhile, back in the ward, Chiang Xiao was getting overwhelmed by their stares.
Ge Dejun, Liu Pei, Xu Linjiang, and Ge Xiaotong were all there; Ge Dejun and Liu Pei had gone home last night while Xu Linjiang stayed in the hospital to accompany Ge Xiaotong.
Liu Pei brought some porridge and had brought them a portion too, but she hadnât expected to find that Chiang Xiao was out when she arrived.
âLittle, how do you actually know Captain Meng?â Ge Xiaotong couldnât resist gossiping first.
That Captain Meng was indeed quite handsome.
Of course, her heart belonged only to Xu Linjiang. But that didnât stop her from admiring Captain Mengâs looks.
âI just helped them out with a little favor,â Chiang Xiao explained weakly. âThen Captain Meng insisted on giving me some compensation, which I planned to return to him.â
