Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2439 - 2375: Cannot Be Controlled by Others

Chiang Xiao said, pulling her along to turn around and run back.

Halfway there, she turned her head again to glance at the man.

The man extended a hand from the water, waved at her, and flashed a grin.

"No rush, I’ll be waiting here," he called out.

ng Xinian heard the urgent footsteps not far away, quickly turned his head to look, and ran over while throwing down what he held.

"Did sothing happen?"

Chiang Xiao slowed her pace, realizing she had startled him.

"It’s nothing, it’s nothing."

Only then did ng Xinian’s tense heart relax.

He realized that he might have truly been frightened by Hu Xiangyong. Aware of this, ng Xinian furrowed his brow.

This feeling was terribly unpleasant.

When did he beco so restricted by others?

So, he still needed to think of a solution.

But now is not the ti to dwell on that.

"What’s up? Why are you running so hurriedly?"

"There’s a lake over there, and soone in the lake said they caught a really big fish and can’t haul it up alone. They asked if we could help, and if we’re willing to help, they’d give us half of the fish," Chiang Xiao said.

"Soone’s here?" Chen Yin was taken aback.

Wang Yi imdiately said, "Yes, and he has a wooden boat too. Also, the scenery of that lake is extraordinarily beautiful."

ng Xinian looked at Chiang Xiao and asked, "Do you want to eat fish?"

They indeed hadn’t brought fish along.

Chiang Xiao blinked, "I just feel like the lake water is very clean, and the fish there must be delicious."

"Then let’s go help."

As long as she wanted to eat, it was enough.

Chen Yin looked at ng Xinian, who was behaving like a henpecked husband, thoughtfully.

With ng Xinian’s usual alertness, his first question should have been about who that person was, whether he was suspicious, but as soon as Chiang Xiao ntioned wanting half of the fish, he only thought about helping her catch fish.

He really always put Chiang Xiao first.

So, is he not doing enough for Wang Yi?

"Let’s go, let’s take a look."

ng Xinian turned and said, "No, you stay here on guard."

These were all things they were going to eat later, and if a suspicious person really led them away to drug the food, all four of them would fall for it.

Although it was likely that both Chiang Xiao and he could taste sothing off imdiately, should they really taste everything first?

"Why don’t we move everything to the lakeside and barbecue there? The scenery is truly extraordinarily beautiful," Chiang Xiao suggested.

"Listening to you," ng Xinian imdiately agreed, "Earlier, Chen Yin thought it was troubleso to move things."

Chen Yin: "..."

Sorry, Officer ng, what did you say?

Wasn’t it you who said that initially?

But he glanced at ng Xinian and conceded.

Forget it, he wouldn’t bicker with soone who had been a bully since childhood.

Weren’t there fewer people back in the day who were bullied by his shaless behavior?

Back then, he also hadn’t figured out how soone like ng Xinian, a bully from the compound, could beco a soldier.

Each of them carried so things and walked to the lakeside.

The man was already dressed, sitting on the boat, with bare feet still dangling in the water, humming an unrefined tune with a small flower in his mouth.

Seeing them co over with so many things, his eyes lit up, and when he spoke, the small flower fell into the water.

"You’re coming to barbecue? That’s truly fantastic! I was originally thinking of casually carving so sticks, using stones to build a rudintary grill, and just roughly grilling the fish to eat. Now that you’ve brought so many things, they can definitely be useful."
