Chapter 1338 - 1339: She Did It on Purpose

Chapter 1338: Chapter 1339: She Did It on Purpose

It was already ten o’clock, and Chiang Xiao had assumed that the Meng Family’s house would have already gone dark with everyone asleep.

After all, no matter how big the incident, one couldn’t possibly not rest.

However, from a distance, she could see that the lights of the Meng Family’s small building were still on.

Could it be that Tyrant Meng was waiting for her?

Chiang Xiao continued to walk slowly, when she noticed someone sitting on the curbstone ahead, looking at her approach; suddenly, he stood up, his figure revealed under the streetlight.

"Right on time," came the deep voice of Meng Xinian.

"Brother Xinian?" Chiang Xiao was taken aback, "Why are you waiting here for me?"

"Waiting to go in with you," Meng Xinian walked over, "They are probably waiting too."

’They’ naturally referred to Old Meng and Meng Chaojun.

Chiang Xiao had not returned, and he himself didn’t wish to face those so-called closest family members.

Meng Xinian felt a chill in his heart.

Now it seemed that only where Chiang Xiao was could he feel warmth and gentleness, only with her did it feel like home.

He, a grown man, had developed a psychological dependency on a young girl.

Meng Xinian silently sighed.

He took Chiang Xiao’s hand and led her towards the Meng Family home, "Tonight we’ll pack up, and tomorrow we’ll head back to City M. The house can be loaned to them to live in, and whenever you want to take it back, we’ll take it back."

"Sounds good," Chiang Xiao agreed without hesitation.

Upon opening the gate, all the lights in the courtyard were on.

Old Meng had moved a rocking chair to sit facing the entrance, seemingly asleep.

Yet, the noise of the iron gate closing startled him awake, as if from a nightmare. He sat up in a frightened manner, looking in their direction, then sighed with relief and exclaimed with joy, "Little, Xinian, you’re back? Little, quickly, go check on Xinian’s dad; he’s had a headache all afternoon and just now destroyed the study in pain..."

His voice trailed off as he noticed the cold smile on Chiang Xiao’s lips, slowly lowering in volume until he couldn’t continue.

"I’m sorry, Grandfather, but my medicine is worth a fortune, as I’ve said before. I truly can’t afford the antics and expenses of Alliance Officer Meng."

Chiang Xiao spoke icily, "This medicine needs to be taken for a long period without interruption; stopping it means starting over. Whatever was taken before would have been a complete waste. How about you calculate for me how much money and effort of mine you’ve wasted?"

"Little, go upstairs and wash up," Meng Xinian patted her shoulder.

"Alright. You should come up early too."

Chiang Xiao ascended the stairs, took a few steps, then turned back to add, "By the way, I met Du Jinruo today, and she told me something I think I should share with you. She said that before Duan Qingqing married into the Meng Family, she had already lost her chastity to another man. But Duan Qingqing still didn’t want to marry just anyone and after picking and choosing, she selected Alliance Officer Meng. Then, the entire Duan Family was involved in setting up the marriage. It’s very possible that at that time, Alliance Officer Meng was still innocent."

After finishing, she turned back to the stairs only to see Meng Chaojun, who was just about to come down, standing there.

Meng Chaojun’s face was ashen, his figure swaying, utterly devastated.

So it turned out that not only had he been cuckolded, but for all these years, he had been treasuring a woman, a schemer who had been abandoned by another man?

Thinking back now, he truly felt like the biggest fool in history, the butt of the biggest joke!

Chiang Xiao lowered her gaze and brushed past him.

Could she admit to herself that she had come here on purpose so that he would hear her?
