Chapter 866: Chapter 867 Very Smart Chapter 866: Chapter 867 Very Smart Chiang Xiao massaged her forehead.
She really hadnât expected that Old Tang was also a gossip-mongering old man!
What did he mean by âthat kid found a loopholeâ?
She and Yu Hang really had nothing between them.
But when she looked at Meng Xinian again, his face looked as if it could drip ink.
She was about to say something to him when Meng Xinian, controlling his wheelchair, turned and left.
Chiang Xiao: ââŠâ
Donât think she didnât know that his leg injury had completely healed! He had been able to move freely for a while now, pretending to be lame seemed to have become quite addictive for him.
But now he was clearly angry.
Whatâs more, in this particular matter, Chiang Xiao felt she was also at fault, so she felt somewhat guilty.
Originally, she hadnât clearly told Meng Xinian, making him think she had agreed to go to school in the provincial city; when he suggested she ask Xue Liujin for help, she had been vague about it. Although she felt that where she went to school was her own business, her behavior and attitude were wrong.
She admitted that much.
âGrandfather, can you please not add to the confusion? Donât listen to Old Tangâs nonsense. That classmate and I didnât go out together that nightâŠâ
Old Meng quietly pointed at Meng Xinianâs retreating figure, lowered his voice, and said, âYou donât need to explain to me. Go explain it to him.â Watching the back of his eldest grandson, Old Mengâs wrinkles turned into a smile.
He needed to put some pressure on him, so he would treat his future wife better in the future and not pick on her because she was young. Also, he ought to take it easy with these long-term assignments that last a year; otherwise, if his fiancĂ©e was pursued and taken by someone else during his absence for a year, heâd find nowhere to cry!
The more Old Meng thought about it, the smarter he felt he was, and he began to hum a song with great pleasure.
Chiang Xiao, however, felt quite helpless, hurried out, and caught up with Meng Xi, reaching out to steady the wheelchair.
Looking at Meng Xinian, she said with a bit of depression, âI just happened to meet Principal Fu Mingfeng from County No. 3 Middle School on the train, and he recognized me. He recommended that I apply to County No. 3 Middle School and offered me some terms that I really liked. Plus, I think the learning environment at County No. 3 Middle School is very good.â
Meng Xinian remained silent.
He had originally thought that she would attend school here in City J, so he could visit her at school whenever he had a little free time, and they wouldnât have to keep being apart.
But to his surprise, she had chosen County No. 3 Middle School!
In the county townâs Third Middle School!
By then, he probably wouldnât have enough time.
âAlso, I had classmates in County No. 3 Middle School who were all nice to me, and I took lessons from someone very skilled in painting.â Chiang Xiao continued, âHeâs our new class teacher, named Liu Guoying.â
After she finished speaking, she glanced at him again.
Sensing her gaze, Meng Xinian sighed somewhat helplessly.
âAnd another male deskmate who is very good-looking and comes from a wealthy family?â Meng Xinianâs heart soured and pained as he mentioned this. âDid you go to City J with him? Just the two of you?â
Chiang Xiao felt it was somewhat awkward to discuss these matters here between them.
Jealousy? Explanations?
Was there really a need?
She had completely forgotten the sour feeling in her heart when she first heard about Du Jinruo, as well as the subsequent events that had occurred.
âNo, I didnât go because of him,â she said. âThere was another classmate who went to City J with us. I went to meet Old Bai in City J.â
So, Chiang Xiao told him all about it, including the situation with Yu Hangâs family, how they came to approach her, and so on.
Of course, she also carefully explained the incident involving Old Tang and Tang Qing that day.
