Chapter 880 - 880 881 Just Seven Years Older

Chapter 880: Chapter 881: Just Seven Years Older Chapter 880: Chapter 881: Just Seven Years Older The atmosphere had been very awkward.

Meng Xinian looked at Chiang Xiao, his tone carrying a hint of threat.

“I’ll give you one more chance to change your answer.”

Chiang Xiao was angry.

Do you have to be such a tyrant, Tyrant Meng? Must you force me to admit we got engaged so young?

Meng Xinian’s gaze was deep, unyielding and firm.

Whose fault was it that she had to come to the county to attend high school? She was already so far away from him, and then there appeared a very handsome deskmate who liked her.

If he didn’t come to assert his authority, wouldn’t that be unacceptable?

Considering that this was her principal and that was her teacher, it seemed they would still need to keep in contact in the future; it would be better to make things clear. If the principal got angry and opposed her puppy love…

Well, then he’d just take the opportunity to transfer her to a school in the provincial city.

Chiang Xiao met his gaze and gradually relented.

She didn’t know why she was being such a pushover.

In her previous life, she had always been a pushover. This time around, she had managed to stand up for herself against others, but the remaining insecurities and timid honesty she hadn’t overcome seemed to burst forth around him.

Chiang Xiao also felt utterly helpless.

She lowered her head weakly and said in a very soft voice, “… Fiance.”

Fu Mingfeng and his wife: “…”

Liu Guoying: “…”

Meng Xinian was satisfied, turned to them, and explained, “Our engagement was arranged by our elders.”

Liu Guoying and Fu Mingfeng breathed a sigh of relief.

So that’s what it was, then it wasn’t early romance.

Fu Mingfeng said, “That’s an old-fashioned idea and custom. Actually, you are all people of the new society; you could totally explain to the elders and cancel such an engagement…”

Meng Xinian cut him off, “We don’t intend to cancel it, and we’ve already had our betrothal ceremony.”

Fu Mingfeng was taken aback, “You don’t want to rebel against such an unreasonable engagement?”

“We both think it’s quite good; the elders have good judgment.”

Chiang Xiao held her forehead, not wanting to look at him anymore.

Was he complimenting her or himself?

Liu Guoying said, “But Chiang Xiao is fifteen, right? You seem…”

“I’m twenty-two,” Meng Xinian’s face tightened, “only seven years older than her.”

Only seven years older…

The three opposite him collectively criticized in their minds.

Fu Mingfeng looked at Chiang Xiao, “But in this case, Chiang Xiao, won’t you have any concerns? You are still a student now, you should focus on your studies. Getting into a relationship at this point could impact your grades and even your future.”

“Principal, I understand,” Chiang Xiao said with a cold sweat.

Meng Xinian said directly, “Her grades won’t be affected, and also, I won’t bring any negative impact to her future!”

“Allow me to formally introduce myself to you all, G Province Aristocratic Family Supervisor Guard Alliance Unit 157, Meng Xinian.”

“Supervisor Guard?” Liu Guoying and Fu Mingfeng were both surprised.

“Yes.”

No wonder his presence was commanding, his demeanor sharp and valiant.

Like those in the military, Supervisor Guards also give people a very strong sense of trust and admiration.

Once Meng Xinian revealed his identity, Fu Mingfeng and Liu Guoying immediately believed what he had said before—he wouldn’t bring any negative impact to Chiang Xiao’s future.

They breathed a sigh of relief.

Meng Xinian continued, “Usually, I will be in the Alliance District. We still need the principal and teachers to help take care of Chiang Xiao.”

“Chiang Xiao doesn’t need us to watch her that closely.”

Fu Mingfeng was still unaccustomed to the fact that Chiang Xiao had a fiance, but since they were childhood sweethearts approved by their elders and had already set their engagement, he wouldn’t say much more.

Besides, Chiang Xiao’s performance made him believe that her grades wouldn’t be affected.

“We should still thank Little Meng for today. Earlier at the public security bureau, it was his help that allowed me to come back first,” Liu Guoying said.
