Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2430: Chapter 2366: Safety First

Meng Xinian kissed Chiang Xiao gently when he saw she still couldn’t smile, and said, "I’ll be more careful, it won’t be so easy for others to hurt me again."

Chiang Xiao nodded.

What good is worrying?

Anyway, there’s no retreat; I have to face it head-on.

She didn’t believe this life would repeat the tragic ending of her past life.

However, it was only by living again that she realized so many people and things existed before.

She used to know nothing about them.

If she knew she would die, in her past life she might as well have not escaped, let them take her, and perhaps find out who the old man was and where the research lab was, what really happened inside.

In this life, she could go straight to the dragon’s lair.

Chiang Xiao thought about it and realized she was probably overthinking.

If she really died that way, she might not have had the chance to live again.

She suddenly thought of something, "Brother Xinian, does your wound hurt?"

"Would you feel any better if I said it doesn’t?"

Meng Xinian said helplessly.

But with such a deep wound on his chest, how could it not hurt?

Though Chiang Xiao’s medicine was excellent, making it much less painful once applied, he could still feel it.

Chiang Xiao took out a talisman diagram and handed it to him.

"Take it."

Meng Xinian received it, at first not knowing what it was. Even though he recognized it as a talisman diagram, he didn’t know its purpose. Just as he was about to ask, he immediately noticed.

"Hmm?"

His wound didn’t hurt at all!

"Isn’t it effective?" Chiang Xiao blinked. "I just developed this, a pain-relief talisman."

"Is there really such a thing?" Meng Xinian was astonished.

Chiang Xiao nodded.

"But as I just told you, try not to use the Magic Brush and Space..."

"We’re not outside now, and I only give it to you, not to others."

Meng Xinian frowned, "Giving it to me isn’t 100% safe either. What if it accidentally falls? If someone sees I have such a talisman diagram with me, sensitive people might detect something unusual."

Chiang Xiao was taken aback, "But such a good thing shouldn’t go unused, right?"

"Can’t you replace your previous Jade Beads with something else? Only something that can fully enclose the talisman diagram would work."

Chiang Xiao thought about it.

Originally, it could be drawn on clothes, but clothes could be changed or torn, so wearing it is more convenient.

She should think of something to enclose the talisman diagram so that even if someone saw the bead or picked up the bead, they wouldn’t discover any mystery.

"I’ll ask the porcelain workshop if they can make some Porcelain Beads."

Chiang Xiao said somewhat helplessly.

If they were dealing with ordinary people, there would be no need to worry about these problems. But now the concern is whether those people are really from the research lab, or from similar institutions.

"Okay, I’ll keep this for now." Meng Xinian dressed and put the talisman diagram in his pocket.

"I’ll go out to talk to them first, do you want to come?"

Chiang Xiao immediately shook her head.

She didn’t want to go out.

The embarrassment she felt earlier was still unresolved.

Meng Xinian rubbed her head, "Then stay here, I’m heading out."

Chiang Xiao nodded.

She didn’t know what Meng Xinian talked about with Ding Haijing and the others, but half an hour later, Ding Haijing and the others left, and Meng Xinian returned to the room.

"Did Second Master find you?"

She hadn’t had the chance to mention this before, but as soon as he asked, Chiang Xiao knew Ding Haijing must have told him.
