Brother Dong looked Jiangse Valley over once more.

The young woman before me was dressed in fine clothes and had a graceful demeanor, so she must be of high status. She also knew that the Northern City Military Command was currently undergoing reorganization...

Just then, the waiter with the stick whispered, "This young lady says she also knows the brothers from the Military Command!"

That's most likely the wife of someone from the Military Command.

Since they are relatives of the brothers in the Military Commandery, he has no need to worry about anything!

The respectful expression on Dong Xuzhi's face vanished, replaced by a ruthless tone. "Young lady, you have been showing contempt for our Military Commander. Are you deliberately trying to cause trouble for our Northern Military Command? Or are you sent by one of the other four commands to disrupt the order of our Northern City? If so, don't blame me for being rude! Men, take these two back to the Military Command. I will interrogate them personally!"

Jiang Segu remained completely unmoved. She sneered, "I'm afraid not to go to the Military Command with you because I'm afraid you'll get into trouble because of it!"

Seeing Jiang Segu remain calm and composed in the face of danger, Brother Dong clicked his tongue.

To be honest, there were two tough rocks in the Beicheng Military Command that he couldn't kick: one was Yin Taicheng, and the other was Gu Songhan, whom he hated with a passion.

Although Yin Taicheng was a bit rigid, after he came to the Military Command, as long as they didn't provoke him, he would turn a blind eye to their little tricks.

But Gu Songhan was different; he was like a rock in a cesspool, both smelly and hard!

Since he arrived, he has not only been tormenting the brothers every day, but he has also forcibly cut off their source of income, forbidding them from accepting tribute money!

If he doesn't accept those silver coins, how will he live a life of debauchery?

What's most infuriating is that Gu Songhan is like a mad dog, always picking on him!

If this girl in front of me is related to Gu Songhan...

A dark glint flashed in Dong Ge's eyes, but his expression quickly became friendly again. "Does the young lady know our Deputy Commander Gu Songhan?"

Upon hearing that person's name, Jiang Segu's expression softened considerably.

Brother Dong narrowed his slanted eyes and smiled. "Oh dear, isn't this a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King's temple? They're not recognizing each other anymore!"

With that, he slapped the waiter holding the stick across the face. "What exactly happened? Tell me properly, or I'll skin you alive!"

The waiter with the stick was stunned by the beating and instinctively knelt down to confess his guilt!

At this moment, Brother Dong chuckled and said, "Miss, it's too sunny outside. Why don't we go inside and sit down and watch how I interrogate these two scoundrels!"

Seeing that his attitude changed so quickly, Jiang Segu assumed that he was afraid of Gu Songhan's prestige, so he nodded in agreement.

Brother Dong politely invited her to enter the shop first, while he followed three steps behind.

He winked at the clerk behind him.

The minor official instantly understood, grabbed his spear, and scattered the onlookers!

"The shopkeepers still have business to do in the front, so why don't we question them in the back? What do you think, young lady?"

Jiang Segu became wary.

"It's just a matter of a few words. Besides, this young man lost his money; they might even search the shop..."

Knowing she wouldn't cooperate, Brother Dong stopped pretending and knocked Jiang Segu unconscious with a karate chop...

When Qiaohe led Gu Songhan to the shop, the shop was already open to customers as usual.

Meanwhile, the two waiters, as if nothing had happened, were standing at the door smiling and greeting customers.

Qiaohe stepped forward and questioned the two waiters, "Where is our young lady?"

One of them feigned ignorance and said, "I don't know which young lady you're referring to. After all, we have quite a few customers coming and going every day. If she's not a regular, I won't remember her!"

"Stop pretending! Just now, it was clearly you who had a misunderstanding with a young master, which is why my young lady sent me to find someone!"

"Oh, you mean that young lady! The young master found the silver after you left, and the young lady left after realizing it was just a misunderstanding!"

"Impossible! Even if it's a misunderstanding, my young lady would never leave without waiting for me to return! You must be the ones who harmed her. Let me tell you, if anything happens to my young lady, let's see if you can survive today!"

Qiaohe was furious, that's why she said those words to scare the waiter!

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, a knife was placed against the waiter's neck.

Qiaohe shrank back, but showed no fear on her face. "Tell me, where is my daughter?"

The waiter was a bully who preyed on the weak, and seeing that things weren't going as Brother Dong had described, his legs trembled. "I really don't know..."

Gu Songhan didn't have that much patience and said to Qiaohe, "Close your eyes!"

Qiaohe stared blankly at Gu Songhan, her mouth agape and her eyes blinking.

Why did the son-in-law tell her to close her eyes?

Gu Songhan repeated in a cold, deep voice: "Close your eyes!"

Qiaohe had never seen Gu Songhan so cold and stern, so she quickly closed her eyes!

The instant she closed her eyes, Xiao Er's head rolled to the feet of another child.

The waiter was so frightened that he didn't know how to scream; his whole body trembled like the last leaf on an autumn tree.

When the people in the shop realized that someone had died, some screamed and others ran around frantically, but no one dared to run out the door.

Qiaohe smelled the strong stench of blood and knew that Gu Songhan had killed Xiao Er. However, she did not feel the fear she had expected. Instead, she felt a surge of excitement, as if she had not called this son-in-law wrong!

The blood-stained knife was moved to the neck of the young man, whose pants were already wet with urine.

"Tell me, where are they?"

"Little one..."

With just two words, Xiao Er realized that the skin on his neck had been cut by a sharp knife.

"Brother Dong took him away!"

"Dong Xuzhi?"

The waiter nodded hurriedly!

Gu Songhan stared at Xiao Er with eyes as sharp as an eagle's.

The waiter panicked, thinking that Gu Songhan didn't believe him, so he quickly reassured him, "I'm not lying, it really was Brother Dong who took the person away!"

Brother Dong knew you were coming, so he asked us to tell you that the girl had already left, saying that this way you wouldn't make things difficult for us!

"I didn't mean to deceive you, sir, it's just..."

Which way did they go?

"Brother Dong was walking eastward from the backyard with someone in his arms..."

Upon hearing the word "embrace," Gu Songhan's dark eyes, like a deep pool, flashed with a hint of coldness. "She's injured?"

The waiter's hair stood on end. He immediately wanted to run, but with the knife in front of him, he had no choice but to stammer, "That girl was... was knocked unconscious by Brother Dong!"

Gu Songhan's dark eyes seemed to be churning with a storm.

Dong Xuzhi actually dared to hurt her!

"Qu Shaowu, take the man back to the Military Command! Also, gather all the troops in the Military Command to search for Miss Jiang Liu!"

Qu Shaowu thought to himself, "That brainless Dong Xuzhi, if you're going to die, don't drag them down with you!"
