Transmigrated into a poor peasant family, lacking clothes and food, life is hard enough, why must she also be schemed against by her only relative?
So she's not their biological child, wh...
As Jiang Qiao walked back, she muttered to herself, "What on earth is Ye Xiuhe doing today? Why is she saying such inexplicable things?"
Could it be that the other party has some hidden reason? But then she thought, if they really had something to hide, they wouldn't have said that to her, would they? This behavior is really not in line with her age.
To be honest, she was a little confused by Ye Xiuhe's words and couldn't understand them. She could only sigh and push open the door to go inside.
I don't know if it was because what I said to Bai Qingping in the morning had an effect, or if Bai Qingping felt that it wasn't safe to live with her, so there was one less set of bedding in the house.
That's even better. Jiang Qiao still wanted to be wary of the other party, but she didn't know if this person had done anything wrong in the house, so for the time being, she couldn't make any extra moves.
She locked the door, collapsed onto the bed, and went to sleep. She was really tired during this period and hadn't had a proper rest. This time, she would treat it as a vacation and having some fun with these people wouldn't be bad.
However, thinking of the thing Ye Xiuhe was holding, Jiang Qiao would find it difficult to fall asleep; it was something she had been hesitant about for a long time.
She was worried that the other party would resort to desperate measures and give her this. Even if she had strong willpower, she knew she couldn't resist the addictive stuff if the other party actually injected her with it.
Jiang Qiao couldn't simply assume that Bai Qingping was unaware of this matter just because Ye Xiuhe could produce it. Was this woman reminding her, or was she telling her to behave herself?
She sighed inwardly; dealing with this group of lunatics, she could no longer think in a normal way.
Unable to figure it out, Jiang Qiao decided to go to sleep, but she was still awakened by the knocking on the door. She checked the time and realized it was past her usual time, so she quickly got up.
"Here they come, here they come, here they come—"
When he opened the door, he saw one of the three people. "I'm so sorry, I overslept and didn't know the time. Come on, let's go over there now. Are there any fish or shrimp in the river?"
The man smiled and nodded. "Yes, but they're not very big. Can you eat them?"
Jiang Qiao nodded. "No matter the size, as long as it's edible, we all need to replenish our nutrition. This will improve our physical condition and strengthen our immunity, giving us the ability to fight off disease. Let's go fishing."
As they walked, the man muttered to Jiang Qiao, "Well, they checked again, and even asked you what you told us. None of us told the truth—"
Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "They really are worried. Let's go. The worst that can happen is death. I doubt they would let me go even in this state. Maybe we'll really be companions in the future."
The man looked at Jiang Qiao in surprise, "Really?"
Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "Who knows? You've been dealing with them for a long time, so you should know them best, right? Forget it, there's no use thinking about it so much. As long as we live, we should live happily."
Although all three of them had taken that drug, Jiang Qiao really couldn't be sure if they were truly on her side.
Some things are best left unsaid; she doesn't want to say more, in case it backfires.
The people Liu Zhanyu sent to monitor them dared not take off their headphones for a moment, for fear of missing a single word and thus delaying important matters.
In particular, they had heard what Ye Xiuhe said, so the name quickly spread outside, prompting people to investigate as soon as possible. If this person had problems, they couldn't let Jiang Qiao trust him easily; that was a wolf's den, and there was always the danger of losing one's head.
As for those people hiding in the shadows, they have been identified, but they cannot be touched yet. Someone delivers food to them every day, and if they discover anything amiss, Jiang Qiao's situation will be in grave danger.
When Liu Zhanyu received the news, Song Shutian also came over. He had also received a letter saying that Jiang Qiao was in their hands and they wanted to exchange him for Sato. So, he had to come and meet with Liu Zhanyu to discuss the matter together.
Their director had given the order: the person couldn't be released, and Jiang Qiao's side couldn't have any problems either. So, he had no choice but to come here in person.
Furthermore, since Jiang Qiao has been arrested, he should take some action from any perspective, at least to make the other party feel that he takes this matter seriously.
"What is Ye Xiuhe's identity? Is she one of us?"
There are some things that someone Liu Zhanyu, at his age, cannot know, especially about the underground personnel who lost contact back then. Perhaps this Ye Xiuhe might be one of those who lost contact.
He could only ask Song Shutian about this, since that guy had access to the information.
However, Song Shutian shook his head at this moment, "I don't know either. Don't let her words throw us into disarray. It might be an enemy's scheme."
Jiang Qiao has had a lot of contact with us; they know better than anyone else that if Ye Xiuhe really had something to hide, she could have easily contacted the organization all these years ago. Who knows what's going on here? Let's wait and see; whether she's a good person or a bad one, she'll show her true colors sooner or later.”
That's what they said, but they still dialed a number. Jiang Jinyu hesitated for a moment when she heard the name Ye Xiuhe.
"I've never heard of this name before. Is it an alias? I'll have someone check it out later. What's the situation with Jiang Qiao? Is she in danger?"
“There’s no immediate danger, but I’m worried that the enemy might have a mental breakdown and drug Jiang Qiao. Ye Xiuhe even threatened to give Jiang Qiao morphine before. You know what that stuff is; even Jiang Qiao probably couldn’t handle it. Should we act immediately?”
Jiang Jinyu held the phone and remained silent for a long time. It would be a lie to say he wasn't worried, but each operation had only resulted in arresting people and not obtaining many useful clues. He knew better than anyone what Jiang Qiao was after in agreeing to risk his life this time.
She claimed to have severed the enemy's left and right arms, but in reality, that girl wanted to dig out the woman behind the scenes more than anyone else.
After thinking it through, he spoke in a calm voice, "Wait a little longer, no rush. Jiang Qiao hasn't sent out any distress signals, so let's hold back for now. Didn't we say we were going to exchange Sato? For now, they shouldn't make any moves against Jiang Qiao."
Remember, keep a close eye on Jiang Qiao's situation, especially on the people who came out. We can't waste the opportunity Jiang Qiao has given us.
I'll have someone check the identities of those two people. I'll let you know as soon as I have any news.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Jinyu sat in a chair, closed her eyes, and pondered for a long time before getting up and leaving.
Jiang Qiao was unaware that a series of investigations had already been launched outside because of her.
She lived a rather leisurely life here with those four people. Acupuncture and medicine were indispensable, and she would occasionally ask for some rare medicinal materials.
Of course, the people here had their doubts, but the subsequent examinations of these four people were much better than before.
In their view, the medicine Jiang Qiao prescribed might really be working. That's why they would try to get their hands on any medicine Jiang Qiao needed, no matter how rare it was.
