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...
Liu Zhanyu, who had already made the arrangements, walked in at that moment. "Dad, you interrogate her. I'll sit aside and have some water. Lone Wolf, you've been a coward for so many years, stop holding back. You should know whether that woman is your daughter or not."
Lone Wolf gave Jiang Qiao a deep look, then gritted his teeth and said, "Jiang Qiao, I regret it. I should have met you back then—"
Jiang Qiao raised an eyebrow. "It's not too late now. At least you can know the truth before you die, which is already the best outcome."
Just as Jiang Qiao guessed, the reason why Sato Mie was able to keep Lone Wolf so tightly hooked was not only because of the affection they had shared in bed back then and the confession, but more importantly, because this woman actually claimed to be pregnant with Lone Wolf's child and had given birth to a girl. How could Lone Wolf not believe it? So, all these years, he had been deceiving everyone and helping his third uncle a lot.
As for why his boss, Cobra, hadn't objected, he couldn't understand it either, always feeling that the other party had been persuaded by him.
Besides, they've agreed to cooperate, so he can decide how things go about it himself.
However, he later learned that the girl was not his biological child. The two not only had nothing in common, but their blood types also didn't match.
This is also why Lone Wolf later announced his death; he no longer wanted to help this woman who was full of lies, and he didn't want to become a pawn in her hands.
As for Chen Jianwu, the other person had already joined their organization when he was a student, so he chose this person as his double.
As for the strategist, he helped the other party when they were in trouble, and also adopted the child as his godson, training him since he was a child. Over the years, the strategist is not close to his family, but is quite close to Lone Wolf.
"Where is that strategist? Where did he go this time? Could it be that the strategist was the one who planned to ambush me on the way?"
Lone Wolf shook his head. "He has important business to attend to. Cobra called, saying that someone from over there is coming and we need to go and make contact. So, I sent the strategist. He's intelligent, bold, and meticulous—perfect for this job..."
Knowing the strategist's whereabouts, Jiang Qiao glanced at Liu Zhanyu. Seeing that the other party didn't seem anxious, she roughly understood what was going on.
"Let's talk about the cobra. How much do you know about him?"
Liu Zhanyu then raised a question at the opportune moment.
Lone Wolf hesitated for a moment, then shook his head. "It's not that I don't want to talk about it, but I don't know anything about this person at all. When I first went undercover, I had no idea that such a person existed. I was only notified later that I had such a leader."
Although I've never met this person and don't know who he is, after dealing with him for so many years, I've learned that this Cobra is meticulous and doesn't easily show his face. When there's something to discuss, he always sends me over. In fact, many things are done on his orders.
Think about it, how could someone like me, living in the countryside, possibly know so much information?
Yes, some of my subordinates know a little bit, but a lot of important information still comes from him.
Also, this time, he sent a message to find a child, a girl, about the same age as Dou Yanhua, but the birthday doesn't match. I suspected before that the child that Sato Mie mentioned might be the one Cobra was looking for, since the markings on her body match.
Cobra said we shouldn't bother Dou Yanhua, just protect her secretly. Later, Zhao Anbang's incident happened, so I had someone tamper with Yang Anxiu. As for the rest, you probably already know.
Jiang Qiao didn't want to know too much about other people; she could leave that to Liu Zhanyu and the others. What she wanted to know most was who wanted to kill her.
Faced with Jiang Qiao's doubts, Lone Wolf gave a wry smile and said, "Jiang Qiao, let's be frank. You probably can't even count how many times you've ruined our operations."
With you here, how could we possibly remain indifferent? Although I gave the order, it was also approved by Cobra.
If someone like you doesn't die, you're a potential threat to us.
Actually, now I really regret it. I shouldn't have touched you. Your life wasn't threatened. I figured you wouldn't have bothered with such a trivial matter, right? After all, you're still young and in school.
Jiang Qiao gave a bitter smile. "A few years ago, if you thought that way, it really wouldn't have been my problem. I'm just a student, a child. What could I do?"
I need to study hard and improve every day. I was even preparing for the college entrance exam, but you guys ruined it. Tell me, I almost lost my life. Shouldn't I get revenge? You should know what kind of person I am after all these years.
"Alright, the rest of the questions are up to them. I'm going out for some fresh air."
Liu Zhanyu patted Jiang Qiao on the shoulder. "Girl, go outside and wait for me. I'll take you home in a bit."
Liu Zhanyu could understand the frustration Jiang Qiao felt. He had finally caught the person, but he couldn't properly vent his anger. To be honest, Jiang Qiao had endured much more than they had over the years. Of course, Jiang Qiao had also sacrificed a great deal in this regard.
Jiang Qiao went outside to get some fresh air, watching the snowflakes fall from the sky. She stood quietly in the first snow, feeling the coolness on her face, until she was covered in snow. Liu Zhanyu then came out of the house.
However, seeing Jiang Qiao standing in the snow, he was a little stunned. It was rare to see his adopted daughter so quiet. Over the years, this girl had either been studying hard or constantly traveling with them. Her childhood had been ruined by enemy agents.
Over the years, he has come to know the girl's growth better than anyone else. This child has had a tough time, as a student, as a son, as a grandson, and even as a servant of the people. Although Jiang Qiao may not be able to do everything perfectly, he has done his best for his child, and that is what he, as an elder, finds most heartbreaking.
"Girl, we should go back now—"
Jiang Qiao was taken aback, then turned around and looked at Liu Zhanyu with a charming smile. "Father, are you done asking?"
Liu Zhanyu nodded with a smile. "That's about it. Old Chen and another comrade are continuing. Let's go home—"
As they walked, Jiang Qiao inquired about the details of the arrest that evening.
"Hehe, I just called and they said the person has been caught. Lone Wolf said he sent three people, and none of them escaped. I was like, 'This old guy, why did he say he wanted to see you before? Turns out he had a backup plan. Luckily you reacted quickly, otherwise we would have fallen into their trap.'"
Oh dear, I now realize that having such a remarkable student as you makes me, as your teacher, truly proud—”
Jiang Qiao gave a wry smile. "I was just guessing. This old guy is so slow and he won't get to the point. What is he up to? He's definitely up to something. If he catches me and uses me as a bargaining chip, do you think you'd just stand by and watch me get into trouble?"
