Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg

Chapter 1322: Chapter 1322: Another Familiar Face

For the two of them, being able to run into each other was both unexpected and delightful. However, in the eyes of those protecting the old commander, Jiang Xue’s appearance was filled with vigilance.

They looked at Jiang Xue with open rejection, as if her encounter with the old commander had some ulterior motive. Fortunately, Jiang Xue had a big heart and simply ignored their looks.

Besides, she hadn’t planned on chatting with the old commander anyway. So after greeting him, she intended to leave. Unexpectedly, the old commander called out to stop her, saying, "Miss Jiang, it’s rare that fate brings us together. Why don’t you sit down and keep me company for a while?"

Jiang Xue hesitated a little, but seeing the earnest look on the old commander’s face, she finally nodded and walked toward the chair he was sitting on.

She hadn’t even reached the chair when those people protecting the old commander blocked her way, clearly not allowing her to approach.

Jiang Xue raised her brows at them and was just about to speak when the old commander intervened, saying, "Step aside. Miss Jiang is my lifesaver."

Once the old commander had spoken, the few of them could only temporarily step back, though they still stood in front of him in a protective posture.

Watching this, Jiang Xue was speechless. She really wanted to turn around and leave, but when she saw the old commander sitting there looking so desolate, she couldn’t quite bring herself to do it.

So she simply crouched down in front of the old commander and asked with a smile, "Sir, what did you want to talk to me about?"

While Jiang Xue was talking with the old commander, Qian Cheng also came to stand by her side, likewise taking up a protective stance.

He stood beside Jiang Xue, his gaze meeting that of the old commander’s bodyguards. Qian Cheng could tell they had a soldier’s background, and those men also recognized Qian Cheng’s identity.

The old commander had already seen it as well, so when Jiang Xue asked him her question, he glanced at Qian Cheng and asked with a smile, "Is that your man?"

When Jiang Xue heard the old commander ask about Qian Cheng, she stood up, took his hand, and introduced him to the old commander, saying, "You’re right, sir. He’s my husband, Mu Qiancheng."

"Qian Cheng, this is an old gentleman I once saved."

"Hello, sir." Qian Cheng greeted the old commander mildly. He had more or less guessed the other party’s identity, but since the old commander hadn’t said anything, he wouldn’t expose it, and simply acted as if he didn’t know.

The old gentleman was a bit surprised to hear that Jiang Xue was already married. He had thought Qian Cheng was at most her boyfriend.

Jiang Xue and the old gentleman were still talking when two figures hurried over in their direction. Jiang Xue looked up and saw that it was someone she knew.

Mr. Lan had learned that the old commander had gone out for a walk and was a little worried. After all, the poison in the old commander’s body had only recently been neutralized, and he was still weak. So once he heard, he immediately rushed out to look for him.

He hadn’t expected to see Jiang Xue there, and Qian Cheng as well.

Seeing the two of them, Mr. Lan’s face lit up with surprise. Smiling, he said, "Jiang Xue, Mu Qiancheng, what are you doing here?"

"Mr. Lan!" Jiang Xue and Qian Cheng weren’t very surprised to see Mr. Lan. Jiang Xue had long known that Mr. Lan was the person in charge of the old commander’s security, so naturally he would be here at the old commander’s place.

She had just been wondering why Mr. Lan wasn’t at the old commander’s side. Then he appeared right away. Truly, speak of the devil and he arrives.

And since Qian Cheng had already guessed the old commander’s identity, he wasn’t surprised by Mr. Lan’s appearance either.
