Chapter 1398: Chapter 1400: Brought a Man Chapter 1398: Chapter 1400: Brought a Man This is completely different.
It seems that Meng Xinian truly has no reservations towards Chiang Xiao!
Chen Yin suddenly asked himself in his heart, could he be so willing to give everything to Little Yi without any reservations?
Chiang Xiao took the teachers and their spouses to the courtyard, and Chen Yin with Meng Xinian began grilling meat for them.
Chen Yin fell silent for a moment, then couldnât help but ask Meng Xinian in a low voice, âThis courtyard, did you really transfer it to your sister-in-lawâs name?â
âYes, it can be transferred.â
âArenât you afraid⊠What ifâŠâ
What if something goes wrong, and they canât get married, and the relationship turns sour, that he wouldnât be able to get the 230,000 back?
He didnât finish his sentence, but Meng Xinian had already understood what he meant.
He looked deeply at Chen Yin and said, âChen Yin, youâre really good at accounting now.â
Chen Yin also knew that this was not a compliment.
âIsnât this human nature?â he said with a bitter smile.
Meng Xinian shook his head, âI donât know about human nature. You will never understand how much Chiang Xiao has sacrificed for me. She saved my life; if she wanted my life, I would give it to her without a second thought, let alone these material things. Besides, questioning like this initially implies mistrust in the otherâs character.â
âHow is this mistrusting?â
Meng Xinian said, âAlthough I really donât want to make such an assumption, if you want to hear it, Iâll make one reluctantly. Suppose, Chiang Xiaoxiao and I truly canât end up getting married. In my view, she would definitely return everything I gave her because she is such a straightforward and generous girl. But you assume that after breaking up, she would keep these things and refuse to return them to me, so I would suffer a loss, right?â
Chen Yin was stunned.
âUnderstand now? Now, I take back that assumption,â Meng Xinian said indifferently: âIâm sure that Xiaoxiao and I will get married and stay together till old age. Because no matter what problems we have, I will try my best to solve them. If thereâs something I need to compromise, I will. My only goal is to become Chiang Xiaoxiaoâs husband.â
Chen Yin was silent for a long time.
Then, someone knocked on the door.
Chen Yinâs heart skipped a beat, and he immediately put down what he was doing and rushed to open the door.
Outside, Little Yiâs face came into view.
âLittle Yi, youâve comeâŠâ
He had not finished speaking when another man walked up to stand beside Little Yi.
Together, they presented a harmonious scene.
Chen Yin was stunned.
Chiang Xiao had already heard the noise and came over, seeing the cultured-looking man with gold-rimmed glasses, she immediately knew who he was.
âLittle Yi, please come in.â
She went forward, took Little Yiâs hand, and also blocked Chen Yin.
She could see the stiffness and discomfort in Little Yi for that split second.
âXiao Chiang, congratulations, and, let me introduce, this is Lee Wenwei. Wenwei, this is Chiang Xiao.â
Lee Wenwei reached out his hand, âIâve heard so much about you.â
Chiang Xiao did not reach out her hand; Meng Xinian came over without her knowing and extended his hand to shake hands with Lee Wenwei.
âMeng Xinian, Chiang Xiaoâs fiancĂ©.â
The atmosphere turned awkward for a moment.
But Lee Wenwei seemed unaware. After entering, he started praising the courtyard. After learning that Liu Guoying was an art teacher, he also praised his paintings.
âMaster Liuâs paintings are very renowned internationally. I heard that Master Liu has very strict principles about painting, hanging only three favorite pieces a year?â
âAbout that,â Liu Guoying said indifferently.
âBy the way, Master Liu, are you teaching freshmen? I have a cousin who just got accepted into the art academy this year.â
