Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2066: Chapter 2002: Going Head-to-Head With Her

”Mr. Hu, this little sister is quite cautious, haha, looks like the adults at home have warned her plenty. She has someone coming to pick her up, so let’s leave first.”

The Bearded Man looked at Chiang Xiao.

The girl wrapped tightly stood in the shadow of the lights, her face completely hidden from view.

Even he couldn’t be sure if she was suspicious of him or just wary of all strangers.

”It’s really not safe for her to be here alone, especially at this hour.” The Bearded Man chuckled softly, ”How about Miss Ji, could trouble yourself a bit, and we wait until her family arrives to pick her up before leaving?”

”Huh?”

The beauty in the white sweater’s surname is Ji, and her name is Yuzhi.

She went to Country Y to visit relatives, as her family had emigrated there long ago, and she was invited over for a winter holiday.

Experiencing the wealthy lifestyle in Country Y left her feeling a bit unbalanced. She happened to learn of a few luxury brands overseas and noticed the man named Hu wore a watch on his wrist reportedly worth tens of thousands, so she wanted to get to know him.

But Ji Yuzhi herself was not a bad person, she often harbored goodwill.

After hearing Mr. Hu, she felt it was only right, so she nodded and said, ”Alright then, let’s go with Mr. Hu’s suggestion. I’ll go over and let her know, so she won’t be scared. I think she might find your beard a bit intimidating.”

Ji Yuzhi offered an explanation for Chiang Xiao.

”I understand,” Mr. Hu smiled, making a gesture for her to proceed, stepping back two steps himself.

Ji Yuzhi walked towards Chiang Xiao.

At four in the morning, it was too cold, and the biting wind made her shiver involuntarily.

As she walked to Chiang Xiao, Chiang Xiao looked at her, and Ji Yuzhi couldn’t help but be captivated by her bright eyes. The young girl had kept her head down or hidden behind a scarf, but just looking at those eyes, one could tell she must be very pretty.

Thinking this, Ji Yuzhi felt even more strongly that she shouldn’t leave her here alone, otherwise it would be too dangerous.

”My name is Ji Yuzhi, I work at Capital City University, oh, not as a lecturer, just doing some office work, you can trust me.”

Afraid Chiang Xiao might not recognize her, Ji Yuzhi spoke while taking out her ID card, offering it to Chiang Xiao.

”Take a look.”

Chiang Xiao glanced at it, then looked at the Bearded Man over there, still whispering, ”I think he looks a bit scary, I don’t dare to be with him, how about we share a ride back together? I live not far from Capital City University.”

”Didn’t you say someone was coming to pick you up?”

”But now I’m scared, if we leave earlier, when my family comes and doesn’t see me, they’ll head back home.” Chiang Xiao looked as if she was shivering.

”That wouldn’t be good, what if they get worried when they arrive and you’re not here? That gentleman is Mr. Hu, he’s coming back to the country to invest and do business, he’s not a bad person, he said he could wait here with you until your family arrives, don’t worry, I’ll also stay here with you.”

Chiang Xiao silently cursed in her heart, was this person going to cling to her?

She hadn’t asked anyone to pick her up!

If she continued to wait, who would come?

She looked at the Bearded Man, clenched her teeth, and said to Ji Yuzhi, ”You were originally alone, aren’t you scared?”

”I’m not scared, I’m already in my twenties, not a child, I often go around by myself.”

Chiang Xiao suddenly held her stomach, ”Oh, my stomach hurts so much!”
