"Aren't you just bored?"
Xia Xiaonuan was speechless at Chen Zibo's sudden visit.
Others may not know the city lord, but does she not?
On the other hand, even if others don't understand her boyfriend, doesn't she understand him?
In other words, the city lord is now a mechanical being.
If the city lord could regain his physical body, these two would already be sleeping in the same bed...
"That woman knows nothing. Go back and tell her to stop worrying about things she shouldn't!"
However, Xia Xiaonuan changed the subject and began to mock An Qingge.
Chen Zibo didn't dare to say anything more, and could only awkwardly say, "Sister-in-law, since you say it's alright, I'm relieved."
"Okay, go back and tell that woman there's no need to worry about the city lord. She's unlikely to side with Peng Bing." Hearing his address, Xia Xiaonuan's expression softened considerably. She glanced up and noticed Chen Zibo's injuries. Instantly, her sense of responsibility as his "sister-in-law" kicked in, and her eyes narrowed. "How did you get hurt? Who hit you?"
"Uh...it's nothing serious." Chen Zibo waved his hand. "A young girl came to the city lord's mansion. She has a really bad temper, and we got into a fight, but after the city lord mediated, everything is fine now."
"What about the city lord, little girl?" Xia Xiaonuan asked, also puzzled.
She naturally didn't know that the city lord of one of her previous lives had also built Hope City in another place, and she was not familiar with Li Xinyue and Li Shiyun.
"Alright, you can go back now." Xia Xiaonuan waved her hand, signaling Chen Zibo to return, while she herself headed to the City Lord's Mansion.
She was very curious about the little girl Chen Zibo mentioned and decided to go and see for herself.
...
"Sister-in-law, I'm back. I can confirm with the city lord that there won't be any problems. We just need to be careful of Peng Bing."
Chen Zibo returned and reported to An Qingge.
Honest people have learned to navigate social situations these days.
If you see Xia Xiaonuan, then Xia Xiaonuan is your sister-in-law; if you see An Qingge, then An Qingge is your sister-in-law.
Its most prominent feature is its flexibility.
An Qingge sat on the soft sofa, wearing loose loungewear, her belly slightly protruding. Sitting there, she looked like a graceful and wealthy young lady.
But Chen Zibo was very respectful.
He was even more respectful to him than he was to Zhang Lin.
He felt a sense of brotherhood and gratitude towards Zhang Lin. The reason he was able to grow to where he is today and even become the captain of Hope City was entirely due to the resource support Zhang Lin provided him in the early stages.
Therefore, he was grateful to Zhang Lin and was extremely loyal to Zhang Lin out of gratitude.
But as for An Qingge...
He felt like he was facing his superiors when he was in the army.
When Zhang Lin wasn't out fighting, he would sleep with this person or that person, and he never bothered with the various miscellaneous tasks of his subordinates.
An Qingge handled everything.
She is very methodical in her work.
Fairness in rewards and punishments.
Rewards should be generous when they are due, and punishments should be severe when they are due.
Gradually, everyone came to respect her.
Chen Zibo was under a lot of pressure at this moment. He dared not let An Qingge know that he got his information from Xia Xiaonuan.
"Oh, that's good. Continue to have people keep an eye on Peng Bing. Report any unusual movements to me immediately."
An Qingge placed one hand on her lower abdomen and gently stroked it, her expression very calm. She didn't ask any questions, after all, Old Chen was a trustworthy person.
"Understood, I'll go now. I'll report back to you if there are any problems."
Chen Zibo got up and left.
After he left, An Qingwu came over.
"Sis, shouldn't your husband be back soon?"
"It should be soon..."
An Qingge wasn't too sure either, mainly because Zhang Lin had sent a message saying that he wanted to incorporate all the prisoners into the vanguard army, which would take some time.
So she couldn't say for sure when Zhang Lin would be able to come back.
“Okay…” An Qingwu sighed in disappointment, then complained, “You should talk to your brother-in-law later and tell him not to keep going out.”
An Qingge almost rolled her eyes.
"No one else is complaining, so why are you complaining?"
She always strives for fairness in everything she does, but she is somewhat biased towards her younger sister, often giving An Qingwu special treatment.
Especially after she became pregnant, she was unable to take care of herself, so she gave up all her opportunities to her younger sister.
An Qingwu can be said to be the person who has spent the most time with Zhang Lin.
Even so, she was still a little unsatisfied...
An Qingwu was a little embarrassed and lowered her head to whisper, "I didn't mean anything by it, I just think it's more dangerous outside, and it's safer at home."
"What do you know?" An Qingge said irritably, "In the current situation, we must do everything we can to weaken the beast tide. If the number of beasts becomes too large and their strength too great, our good days will all disappear."
"Oh, I know." An Qingwu leaned against her sister's belly, pretending to listen carefully, and said with a smile, "Let me hear the baby's voice."
An Qingge stroked her younger sister's hair and said with a smile, "You're just like your brother-in-law!"
Speaking of Zhang Lin, she also felt a deep longing for him.
This time, Zhang Lin has been away for many days.
Given her personality, she hoped that she could go along as well, at least to help Zhang Lin with some miscellaneous management tasks.
Unfortunately, she is not suited to traveling around right now.
...
Xia Xiaonuan had no trouble getting to the city lord's mansion.
In this respect, Kim Sina is not as good as her.
The city lord dared not allow Jin Sina to move freely, fearing that one day she might wake up to find a blonde foreign woman lying next to her.
