Qiao Jiangxin rolled his eyes and said, "Old man, don't be so self-indulgent. Otherwise, you will be the one who gets hurt."

After work in the evening, Qiao Jiangxin was looking at the seven pieces of paper in front of her in the embroidery building.

Gu Yunzhou passed away in April, and he started writing to himself in May, one note a month without interruption. Now he has written seven notes in total.

Each note consisted of just two short sentences, first asking how Qiao Jiangxin was, and then telling Qiao Jiangxin that he was fine.

Because the missions that Gu Yunzhou's team is carrying out include the most dangerous infiltration and special reconnaissance, the identities of all members of their team as well as their movements and communications need to be kept confidential.

All the notes to Qiao Jiangxin were brought by Tan Qinglin himself. No one knew how he did it, and Qiao Jiangxin couldn't write back to him.

Gu Yunzhou thought that if he didn't tell her, Qiao Jiangxin wouldn't know what he was doing. No one said it clearly, but Gu Qingyong and Tan Qinglin knew in their hearts that Qiao Jiangxin knew.

She thought...in fact, she was really worried about him, the kind of worry that made her heart ache.

Before Gu Yunzhou left, Qiao Jiangxin had a feeling. He said that Peng Zhihua had gone to the border, so he did a favor to the king and made arrangements for the king to recognize him as his sister. He wanted the king to support him in the future, so he transferred all of Zhou Kang's shares to himself and also kept the passbook.

Qiao Jiangxin was not a fool. She had some idea of ​​what was going on with such an obvious arrangement.

When they were together at night, she even thought that since she had no plans to get married, and since she got along well with him and he always cared about her, why not just have a child with him? If anything happened, she would at least have a descendant for him.

When she was emotional, she took the initiative by joking, but Gu Yunzhou refused.

He said that Liu Xinyan's situation was very difficult, and he was afraid that Qiao Jiangxin's husband would treat her badly in the future.

The next morning, Qiao Jiangxin still followed his own arrangements and boarded the train to Ning County.

Liu Xinyan's baby is two and a half months old, and is fair, tender and cute. When Qiao Jiangxin arrived, the customers had just left at noon. Ali and Cai Xiaohui were both in the store, and everyone was warming themselves around the stove.

Seeing Qiao Jiangxin pulling open the door curtain and coming in, everyone looked up towards the door.

"Jiang Xin, you're back?"

"We were just talking about you. I was just saying that you would probably be back in the next two days."

Ali stepped forward and helped Qiao Jiangxin put down her bag. "Sister Jiangxin, why do you carry so many things?"

Qiao Jiangxin smiled and said, "Buy some toys and snacks for my younger brothers and sisters at home."

After that, she raised her head and looked at Liu Xinyan, "Mingzhu Manor will not close until the 28th. There are many customers who book banquets at the end of the year. Many customers have come to ask about the banquets on New Year's Eve. If everyone didn't have to celebrate the New Year, I would really like to accept it."

Cai Xiaohui rolled her eyes at Qiao Jiangxin, "I think you are obsessed with money. It's New Year's Eve, Boss Qiao, and the chefs and waiters have their own families, and they want to reunite, too."

Qiao Jiangxin didn't mind and smiled, "That's why I took this into consideration. I didn't even accept the money even if it was delivered to my door."

Taozi took out Qiao Jiangxin's special cup and poured her some hot tea. "Sister Jiangxin, there's hot water in there. Do you want to wash your hands and face first?"

After taking a shower, Qiao Jiangxin came out, drank some hot tea, and sat together with everyone, chatting and laughing. All the heavy worries of the past two days and the fatigue along the way were relieved at this moment.
