Chapter 1028 - 1028 1029 What a Coincidence

Chapter 1028: Chapter 1029: What a Coincidence Chapter 1028: Chapter 1029: What a Coincidence Chiang Xiao listened and felt something was off, a sense of dread washing over her.

On Sunday, she could tell that Chen Yin was in a good mood, somewhat triumphant. Could it be that something had happened to him in just a few days?

“Auntie, what happened to Chen Yin?”

Mother Chen was conflicted, unsure if she should share the matter with her.

Chen Yin had already told her that this had nothing to do with Chiang Xiao and that she shouldn’t be pulled out of school because of it. He could handle it himself.

But with Chen Yin’s temperament, Wang Yi’s spoiled behavior would only infuriate him instead of encouraging him to explain things properly.

Added to that was Lady Wang’s overprotective nature, this issue could blow up into something big.

She had finally seen her son take a liking to a girl whose family had good conditions, and their attitude was starting to soften, maybe even leading to talks of a wedding date soon.

And now this uproar had dragged Meng Xinian into it.

Lady Wang’s words were unpleasant.

She had said that Chen Yin and the former military district’s little tyrant, Meng Xinian, truly lived up to their reputation as best childhood friends. Meng Xinian was unclear about his relations with a country girl, and now Chen Yin was also behaving ambiguously with a young girl.

The problem was that both these young girls referred to Chiang Xiao.

If Chiang Xiao heard these words, who knows how upset she might get.

How could Chen Yin let Chiang Xiao suffer such humiliation?

“Auntie, you can tell me if there’s anything, and if I can help, I will,” Chiang Xiao felt Mother Chen’s hesitation.

Mother Chen thought it over and over, but her concern for her son’s potential marriage falling apart prevailed.

She really thought highly of the Wang family’s conditions, and it would be too much of a pity to miss out.

“Xiao Chiang, this is what happened. Didn’t Chen Yin go to pick you up that day and then took you for breakfast?”

As Mother Chen spoke, Chiang Xiao immediately frowned.

So, this had something to do with her?

“I don’t know who let it slip, but Chen Yin’s girlfriend misunderstood and is now making a fuss about breaking up.”

Chiang Xiao was immediately frustrated.

Her breakfast with Chen Yin was something even Meng Xinian knew about, and he didn’t even get jealous, but Chen Yin’s girlfriend made a scene?

Wait, that’s not right, “Auntie, Chen Yin has a girlfriend?”

Chen Yin had kept it quite secret. Even Meng Xinian wasn’t told.

“Yes, they’ve been dating for three or four months. I really like that girl. She’s beautiful, sweet to me, and has a sweet tongue.”

Three or four months…

“Didn’t Chen Yin explain it to her?” Chiang Xiao felt a bit awkward. Had she inadvertently ruined Chen Yin’s relationship? If Meng Xinian found out, who knows how annoyed he’d get. Meng Xinian wouldn’t mind her being with Chen Yin, but if others kept linking her with Chen Yin, he would definitely be uncomfortable.

“He said he explained once, but the girl from the Wang family didn’t believe it, so he didn’t bother explaining further,” Mother Chen said somewhat helplessly. “I think the girl is quite suitable, but it’d be a shame if things went south because of this issue.”

“Then, how about this, Auntie, talk to Chen Yin, and arrange a time to invite his girlfriend over. I’ll go explain it to her.”

Mother Chen was of course happy that Chiang Xiao was willing to step in.

“That girl works at Capital Art Academy. Today, Chen Yin asked me to rush over and bring her some soup. I heard their academy is particularly busy recently. He should still be there now.”

Chiang Xiao was stunned for a moment. Could it be such a coincidence that Chen Yin’s girlfriend worked at the Capital Art Academy?

“Auntie, then I’ll go over now and take a look, as I was planning to go to the academy too.”
