Liu Zhanyu didn't tell Jiang Qiao too many specifics, but he said everything that needed to be said.

"I don't know what people over there are saying. You should take more time to observe. I know you're good at this. Don't rely on others for everything. When it matters, we still have to rely on ourselves."

Jiang Qiao truly understood what he meant. You see, finding an inside man can't be done with a translator accompanying him; that would just waste time and effort.

"Hehe, you really think highly of me. I don't even know how much I can remember. Don't forget, it's been so many years since I've continued learning this stuff."

Liu Zhanyu rolled his eyes. "Don't try to fool me. Others may not know, but I do. You know, we should keep things to ourselves when we should, and we should reveal what we shouldn't."

Be prepared for this. It can happen quickly, and you don't need to worry about Cobra for now.

Since Liu Zhanyu had spoken, Jiang Qiao had no choice but to comply.

"Okay, I'll wait for them to come. It's just a few words of foreign language. If they don't know it, they can speak Chinese. Surely they won't forget their own accents."

By the way, are Master Hou and Ye Xiuhe alright?

Speaking of Hou Diankui, even Liu Zhanyu had to admit, "This old man is incredibly shrewd. He's been doing a great job fooling people these past few days. We should let Master Hou go into acting; he has the potential."

Since everyone was alright, Jiang Qiao asked a few more questions, gave the items to Liu Zhanyu, and gave him some instructions before letting the two of them leave.

As for Ning Hao, Jian Ling said he wouldn't be back for a while, so Jiang Qiao didn't dare to expect too much.

Before going to bed, I took my pulse and found that the two babies in my belly were doing well. I touched my belly and talked to the two babies inside for a while before drinking something and going to sleep.

As for what people outside are busy with, she doesn't have the energy to pay attention to it now. She always feels like she's not getting enough sleep.

Ning Hao's turn to rest. He had originally wanted to visit his wife and children, but seeing that the lights were off in Jiang Qiao's room, he didn't dare to disturb his wife's rest. It was already difficult enough for her to be pregnant with two children, and she had no one to take care of her. Jiang Qiao also had to worry about those bad people outside. He knew without asking that Jiang Qiao was really having a hard time.

Even if he couldn't see anyone, just standing at the door and knowing that the woman sleeping inside was carrying his child made him feel at ease and at peace.

After waiting outside for a while, Ning Hao finally turned and left. More important things awaited them tomorrow; without proper rest, how could they have the energy to fight the enemy?

To be honest, we really should thank Jiang Qiao. If it weren't for the meat and food she brought back, let alone Cui Changfa and the others, even Wang Benshan and his group probably wouldn't have been able to hold on much longer.

To keep up with their work, they worked in two shifts, afraid that if they were not careful, the enemy would escape. You know, if they were to work like that and the food and oil were not plentiful, most people's bodies wouldn't be able to take it.

Fortunately, there was plenty of fish and meat to sustain them, so everyone's health is pretty good. At least, I haven't seen anyone complain. Every day, they're all like they've been injected with chicken blood, full of fighting spirit.

Jiang Qiao knew what was going on, so she slept soundly. The enemies were showing themselves one by one. So, do you think the Cobra and the strategist are far behind?

The next day, Jiang Qiao woke up late. After eating, she sat in her room reading. Since she had already promised Liu Zhanyu, she naturally had to put in the effort. Although she still had the basics, she hadn't read for so long, so she had to familiarize herself with the material and get back into the swing of things.

Just as she was engrossed in watching, Hou Diankui came looking for her.

"Hey, what brings you here, old man?"

Hou Diankui grinned. "Because I'm fine now. That woman left early this morning, saying she had something to do at noon and wouldn't be back. So what am I supposed to do at home by myself? I took advantage of the grocery shopping to come over and see you. How's the girl? She's been doing well these past few days."

Jiang Qiao smiled and gestured for the old man to sit down. "He's doing well. Have you examined that woman's face yet?"

Hou Diankui chuckled, "What's there to see? With that unlucky look on her face, I know she'll be in jail sooner or later."

Jiang Qiao suppressed a laugh, "You don't happen to be cursing the other person to hurry up and go in every day, do you?"

Hou Diankui smiled and pointed at Jiang Qiao, "You silly girl, you always speak the truth. I was thinking of doing something, but Xiao Song has made arrangements, so I won't do anything unnecessary. It wouldn't be worth it if I alerted them."

"If it weren't for the difficulty in dealing with this cobra and the strategist, I wouldn't need anyone else; I would have taken action directly."

What Jiang Qiao really wanted to know was how the old man had managed to persevere these past few days.

"Hehe, I'm just fooling around. I only know how to cook a few dishes anyway. Eat if you like, don't eat if you don't. There's also Ye Xiuhe, right? The two of us working together are alright."

That woman was quite the actress, though. She ate what she didn't like, even though she didn't want to. I really don't know what she was after, coming all this way to cause trouble. She should have just stayed home.

Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "If everyone thought like us, the world would be at peace. It's a pity that people are hard to talk to."

By the way, was anyone watching that woman when she went out?

Hou Diankui nodded with a smile, "If there wasn't any, would I have come here without worry? Do you have any meat at home?"

Jiang Qiao couldn't help but laugh, "Are you running out of meat coupons at home? Are you craving some?"

Hou Diankui clapped his hands and said, "You guessed right. We've been eating pickled vegetables and greens every day. Otherwise, she would think we're in a very good position. This is the right way to deal with her. I reckon this woman will lose her temper soon."

"You sit down first, I'll cook you some meat. Eat your fill before you go back. Just bear with it for a few more days, they'll probably make their move soon."

After Hou Diankui had eaten and drunk his fill at Jiang Qiao's place, he strolled off leisurely, while Jiang Qiao seized the opportunity to read.

In the days that followed, Jiang Qiao and Ning Hao were both busy. Even when the couple met occasionally, it was always in a rush. Ning Hao was too busy. They had reached a critical point. Jiang Qiao also inquired around and, whenever she could see someone, she would prepare some good food for her husband. The rest of the time, she waited for the delegation to arrive.

Even Liu Zhanyu and the others didn't have time to come over; she guessed they were probably busy making plans with Song Shutian and the others.

Jiang Qiao was living a rather leisurely life with no one to bother her. Even the neighbors around her had become familiar with her. With her current appearance, no one dared to connect her with the little girl who had won a first-class merit award back then. They all thought that Jiang Qiao was a relative of someone's and was temporarily staying there.

Jiang Qiao's middle-aged woman's attire and ordinary appearance did not arouse any suspicion from the crowd.

To be honest, this is all thanks to her skillful makeup techniques and props. When she has nothing to do, she goes for a stroll in the market with the old men and women, and now she knows everyone very well.
