Meng Xinian gritted his teeth and reached out to pull her hand down.
"Hmm, you still remember very clearly. As soon as itâs mentioned, you recall it, huh?"
"Thatâs just a classmate."
"A classmate huh, are there any boys in college who have good intentions towards you now?"
"No." Chiang Xiao said immediately.
Now, even when she went to school, she mostly talked with Jin Lei. Her seatmate was also a person who spoke very little, and the other male classmates had no intentions towards her.
Chiang Xiao always felt maybe it was because she became famous in her first semester for beating up a male classmate, causing other boys to think she was fierce and thus not daring to confess to her.
Of course, there were just two or three who brought love letters, but she smiled and politely rejected them without even reading the letters.
Meng Xinian held her face, making her look at him, "Itâs best if there arenât any. If there are, just tell them you already have someone youâre discussing marriage with. Besides, look at me, none of those boys can compare to how good-looking I am."
"Youâre so vain."
Meng Xinian laughed and kissed her lips lightly, "Come on, letâs pick a date."
He pulled Chiang Xiao to his side and seriously began to flip through the calendar.
"Do you know how to read it?" Chiang Xiao expressed doubt.
"Why wouldnât I? Just pick a day thatâs suitable for everything, isnât that good enough?"
"It doesnât seem that simple, right?"
"It should be like that, or maybe just choose one thatâs suitable for marriage?" Meng Xinian said while flipping through, "At most, we just pick several and ask the elders later. Asking dad works, or we can ask Old Man Yang, he should know."
Meng Xinian thought, anyways, whenever they have free time, they should flip through the dates; otherwise, itâs uncertain how long they would keep delaying.
"You flip through them. Iâm going to draw something on your quilt." Chiang Xiao didnât want to sit there acting foolishly with him.
Is picking dates that easy? Let him flip through as much as he wants.
Meng Xinian pulled her back, not letting her leave.
"Pick the date together; or you can bring the quilt here to draw."
Anyways, she had to stay by his side.
Chiang Xiao rolled her eyes at him.
"Can I draw here with my pen? What if someone comes in?"
Just as she said that, someone knocked on the door and then pushed it open, popping their head in.
Itâs Dai Gang.
As soon as he saw Dai Gang, Meng Xinian was displeased.
"What do you want?"
Dai Gang felt he really had bad luck to be assigned this task, but he had no choice but to speak.
"Great Officer, um, for the next few nights, you should sleep in my room. Iâll squeeze in with Wu Lingyun, the deputy said, itâs getting a bit late now..."
Chiang Xiao chuckled.
So amused.
Itâs ultimately just to prevent Meng Xinian and her from staying together at night since theyâre not married yet?
Really strict these days.
Meng Xinianâs face darkened.
"Got it!"
"Great Officer, letâs go now." Dai Gang said again with a hardened determination.
Meng Xinian gritted his teeth.
He put down the perpetual calendar, grabbed a coat, put it on, and then said to Dai Gang: "About face!"
Dai Gang turned about, and Meng Xinian immediately lowered his head to kiss Chiang Xiaoâs lips, then released her and whispered in her ear: "Little, donât fall asleep too early."
Before Chiang Xiao could react, he had already turned around and went out, turning back at the door only to say to her: "Remember to lock the door."
"Sister-in-law, donât worry, thereâs no villain daring to come here, even if you sleep with the door wide open, nothing would happen."
"What if?" Meng Xinian slapped the back of Dai Gangâs head.
