Fang Yuejin nodded in satisfaction. "They probably brought me here because of you, Jiang Qiao. So, I'm the lucky one. Girl, from now on, your uncle will be counting on you."

"Don't worry, we're family, so you can stay here with peace of mind. My grandpa is here with you."

Grandpa, could you please help look after Uncle Fang? If he's in trouble, there's nothing we can do. He helped my uncle back then, so he's practically family.

Ning Zhengtao nodded. "Don't worry, Grandpa's here. If you're capable, Grandpa will help you."

"Girl, I hope your grandma's team isn't saying anything bad about this?"

Jiang Qiao shook her head. "Just do what you normally do. They won't make things difficult for you on purpose. But don't try to get special treatment. I've already spoken to the captain and my friend about your situation. They'll take care of you secretly. My grandma's side isn't a problem."

Jiang Qiao packed up the remaining food and put it away so that the people who went out could eat it.

Turning around, she went to find the old lady. Zhu Lin didn't know anyone around here, so she wanted to find someone she knew to help the old lady out and prevent her from feeling lonely.

"Don't worry, don't worry, that's your man's grandmother. No matter which side it's against, we'll take good care of her. We're here for you, don't worry."

The old lady even went over to meet and greet Zhu Lin. The two sisters got along quite well. Jiang Qiao and Ning Hao had almost finished packing, and it was time for Jiang Qiao to leave.

"Grandma, just stay here and relax. If you get bored, go visit your aunt. If you need anything, have Haozi buy it for you when he gets back. I'll be going now—"

Jiang Qiao had given all the necessary instructions and done all the necessary tasks. Seeing that it was getting late, she realized she still had to drive back to return the car.

Ning Hao was worried about his wife. "Be careful on the road. Make sure the doors and windows are closed and locked at night. If necessary, go to the countryside."

Previously, Ma Zongxiang secretly protected her, but now Ma Zongxiang and his wife are busy and probably don't have much energy to pay attention to their young wife.

To be honest, Ning Hao's heart was practically torn in two. Why was he so worried? Did he regret it?

Putting aside enemy agents, what if those unscrupulous people saw Jiang Qiao looking like this and took advantage of her vulnerability?

"Don't worry, your wife isn't made of paper, she's not that fragile. Eat when you're hungry, don't skimp on food, your health is the most important thing."

After saying that, Jiang Qiao drove off. Seeing her eldest grandson standing at the door, watching the car disappear into the distance, Zhu Lin sighed, "Go back, you can't see it anymore. Don't catch a cold. Jiang Qiao isn't a child who causes worry. She has her own opinions about everything she does."

Ning Hao gave a wry smile. Some things couldn't be explained to the old lady. No matter how capable Jiang Qiao was, she was still a woman. The huge loss she suffered back then still terrified him.

I went back and returned the car to the owner. With nothing else to do, I strolled around and found a restaurant to have a casual meal.

Coincidentally, Jiang Qiao ran into Miao Xin having dinner with a woman at the restaurant.

Judging from their appearance, the two are already in a relationship; otherwise, a woman wouldn't usually go out alone with a man at this time.

Ever since Miao Xin got divorced and returned to her former workplace, this person hasn't been close to them.

However, Jiang Qiao was still happy for her former friend that he had found his own happiness.

She hesitated for a moment, then turned and left without going over to say hello. She was afraid of embarrassing Miao Xin. Besides, she didn't know if the woman knew anything about the other person. What if she accidentally let something slip while they were chatting?

She couldn't eat, so she had to go home to eat. However, coincidentally, she saw Jiang Hong, someone she hadn't seen since she woke up.

To be honest, she didn't really know much about Jiang Hong's situation. Seeing how well-dressed and hurried she looked, Jiang Qiao followed her as if possessed.

Jiang Hong lived in a detached house with a courtyard, and the house was quite large, with several rooms. However, once someone went inside, the door was immediately closed, so Jiang Qiao didn't know who else lived in the house.

However, she also admired Jiang Hong. This wandering ghost was really good at causing trouble. Last time, she took away all of the other party's secrets. It seems that Jiang Hong has amassed quite a few good things in the past few years.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for a woman like her to have managed to furnish such a large courtyard. She knows all too well how scarce housing is in the city, yet no one has even coveted Jiang Hong's courtyard. It has to be said, this person is quite capable.

Jiang Qiao squatted in the distance, taking out a few pieces of jerky and munching on them. She hesitated, wondering whether she should stay here any longer. Jiang Hong had no conflict with her for the time being, and as long as that person didn't bother her, she really didn't have the mind to meddle in other people's business.

After waiting for a while and seeing no other movement, she was just about to get up and go home when, coincidentally, she saw a man ride a bicycle to Jiang Hong's door.

Whether Jiang Hong has a boyfriend or not is none of her business, but she actually recognizes the person at the door – Zhao Jianjun. How come this person has been in contact with Jiang Hong in private?

Jiang Qiao was a little confused about this. Although Jiang Hong was much better looking than Zhao Jianjun's wife, most people would avoid the Jiang family like the plague, let alone try to get close to them.

Zhao Jianjun was well aware of the situation. She found it strange that these two people came here to meet. Could it be that they had an affair?

To be fair, Jiang Hong isn't bad-looking. Even though Jiang Mei is divorced and her reputation is ruined, there are still men flirting with her.

The reason is mainly because Jiang Mei is quite good-looking, so naturally, Jiang Hong, who is also her sister, wouldn't be too bad-looking either.

But who is Zhao Jianjun? That guy isn't the type to get into trouble just because he's attracted to someone's looks.

No matter how she thought about it, she felt that something was going on. After Jiang Hong opened the door and Zhao Jianjun went in, Jiang Qiao got up and went over.

Jiang Hong's courtyard is located at the east end, connected to her neighbor's house by an alley. It's probably only convenient for pedestrians who want to take a shortcut; cars shouldn't even think about getting in, the alley is too narrow.

It was getting dark, and everyone who was supposed to leave work had already done so, and those who were supposed to go home for dinner had also gone home.

There was no one in the alley, which made things convenient for Jiang Qiao. She climbed up the wall, squatted under the eaves, and looked into the house from the outside.

There were other people in the room besides Jiang Hong and Zhao Jianjun, which made Jiang Qiao even more suspicious. What were these people going to do? What was Zhao Jianjun's purpose in coming here?

If Ning Zhengtao's matter hadn't involved Zhao Jianjun, she really wouldn't have bothered with this person's affairs. However, since Zhao Jianjun had made his move, she had to be on guard. Moreover, there was the restaurant incident later on. She didn't know if it was Zhao Jianjun's doing or the people in the restaurant who were responsible.
