Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s-Chapter 462: The Strengths of Others

Back then, she was a mess every day, without even the time to tidy herself up.

Chiang Xiao, reflecting on it now, felt she must have been possessed by some evil spirit back then. How else could she have been so foolish? Perhaps it was the tribulation of nearly dying that led to her sudden enlightenment.

Afterwards, everything was exceptionally clear.

Only by looking back can one see the foolishness of their past actions.

The library in City M didn’t look majestic from the outside, but Chiang Xiao knew that fifteen years later, someone would donate a substantial amount of money for the construction of a new library, and that building would truly be imposing.

However, once inside the library, the neat rows of bookshelves crammed with books immediately captivated Chiang Xiao.

The library was very bright and quiet, with some students reading peacefully.

Kuang Yunxian helped them secure temporary library access and borrowing cards, valid for two months. That meant Chiang Xiao could come on her own using these two cards from then on.

"I have some matters to deal with and can’t keep you company, I’m really sorry," Kuang Yunxian said, glancing at the clock on the library wall.

Chiang Xiao and the others were aware of the Autumn Scenery Painting matter he had to handle, and they all nodded understandingly.

"Brother Yun Xian, go ahead with your work. We’ll treat you to a meal another time," Meng Xinian said.

"Alright. I’ll be off then." Kuang Yunxian took a couple of steps, then turned back and smiled at Chiang Xiao, "Chiang Xiao, I’m looking forward to your painting."

"I’ll paint it well," Chiang Xiao nodded and waved at him, "See you later, Brother Kuang."

Once Kuang Yunxian had left and his figure was out of sight, Meng Xinian, seeing Chiang Xiao still standing in place and watching, couldn’t help but ask in a heavy tone, "What, do you like Brother Yun Xian a lot?"

"Yeah, I like him. He’s kind, easy-going, handsome, has nice handwriting, appreciates art, and has beautiful hands. He’s very good," Chiang Xiao said frankly.

Heh heh.

Meng Xinian wanted to laugh but found he couldn’t; his face was tense, as if it were coated with cement.

"Brother Yun Xian has so many good qualities? Then what about me? What are my good points?"

Chiang Xiao turned around and scrutinized him, causing Meng Xinian to involuntarily stand up straighter under her examining gaze.

She had just met him and yet was able to list so many merits; surely, she must see even more in him, right?

After a long look, Chiang Xiao nodded, "You indeed have good points too."

Meng Xinian’s eyes lit up, and he raised an eyebrow, "Like what?"

"You’re good-looking."

Meng Xinian: "...And?"

"That’s it."

Chiang Xiao spread her hands and turned to head deeper into the library. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

Meng Xi watched her retreating figure with clenched teeth. She’d looked at him for so long and thought so hard, just to come up with a single good point about him?

Good-looking?

What kind of merit was that for a man!

He wasn’t relying on his face!

"Chiang Xiaoxiao, you are really something!"

She could casually mention so many of Kuang Yunxian’s good points, yet when it came to him, all she had was those four words, "you’re good-looking."

But since the library forbade noise, he could only follow her, reaching out to mess up her hair.

Meng Xinian originally thought Chiang Xiao had come to find materials about painting, but soon discovered she was actually searching for information related to ancient texts.

His primary role walking beside her was to help her grab books from higher shelves.

Chiang Xiao, clutching the books, glanced at him and said in a low voice, "I’ve discovered your second good point."
