Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

What do you mean this girl has feelings for He Jin?

As far as he knew, Chiang Xiao had been engaged to Commander Meng early on, and Commander Meng's prospects were better than He Jin's. How could she possibly have feelings for He Jin?

Saying it like this makes the girl seem fickle, which made him angry upon hearing it!

He scolded He Jin fiercely over the phone.

Chiang Xiao was dumbfounded when she heard this.

Well, this is so typically Wu Xiayue.

He Jin's wife, Wu Xiayue, was also quite difficult to deal with. She's been wary of her for years, somehow believing that she'd snatch away He Jin at any moment.

But if you say Wu Xiayue disliked her, that's not quite right either, because she still came to buy Youqingwei's tea pastries. And when He Jin helped her, Wu Xiayue didn't object either.

It seems as long as she doesn't hang around He Jin, everything's fine.

Seeing Liu Guoying's angry expression, Chiang Xiao couldn't help but say, "Teacher, it's not Brother He's fault, and you can't be mad at him. After all, he has no obligation to accompany me to Y Country. For this competition, if it weren't for him, I wouldn't even have the chance to participate. He's already handed this opportunity to me and has been helping me all along—registering me, sending my paintings, negotiating with the others; that's already beyond kindness."

This matter was indeed a huge favor He Jin did for her, showing extraordinary kindness.

"Moreover, traveling abroad isn't that simple. If the other side doesn't reimburse expenses, he'd have to pay himself, and going away for ten days means leaving his wife and local matters behind. You see, he's not related to me, so why should he help me so much?"

This old man really thinks his student is a princess, a treasure that everyone should revolve around.

Chiang Xiao said, "So, teacher, there's no reason for you to be angry."

Liu Guoying knew the rationale, of course.

But he was just worried about Chiang Xiao being unsafe traveling alone. Hearing Chiang Xiao constantly speaking on behalf of He Jin, Old Liu became agitated and loudly declared, "He's not related to you so can't go, but I'm your teacher, right? I must go! I've already told him to get my paperwork done as well, and if there's money involved, I'll pay!"

After speaking his mind, he remembered something else, "Around that time, it's probably the holidays anyway, so I might as well get the school to issue a certificate, and I'll handle the paperwork myself."

After all, he was determined to go.

Chiang Xiao couldn't persuade him otherwise; she knew this old man was stubborn. If she didn't let him go, he'd worry at home for ten days and likely sulk for half a month afterward.

She also felt that if this competition allowed her to take her teacher out to see the world, it wouldn't hurt, so she agreed.

"Alright, alright, let's go together then. Teacher, you try applying for the certificate from the school here, and if that doesn't work, I'll find someone to sort it out."

"I know you have connections, but I'll try first, and if not, I'll let you handle it." Liu Guoying was not at all polite.

"Alright. But it would just leave teacher's wife here..."

"It's fine, it's fine, we're at school," Cheng Qiulian hurriedly said. "I'm already familiar, and there are several good-natured teachers here whom I get along with. If anything comes up, I can ask them for help, so don't worry."

"I'll have Jin Lei come by more often," Liu Guoying said.

They were indeed quite comfortable living here, without any apprehension.
