At this point, Song Shutian was no longer a leader. He grinned slyly at Zhang Dalei and said, "What's the point of distinguishing between us brothers? Besides, if you guys fall, I'll still have to deal with those people. With your old man keeping things in check, everything will be fine once you get out of here."
Hey Da Lei, let's talk this over. If my dad were half as good as your dad, I'd be dead today.
I'm worried about Jiang Qiao. If she's alright, there aren't many people we can rely on. She's pregnant and can't go home, and there are people we don't dare to contact. Just think about it, what a miserable situation that is, even worse than ours.
Many people recognize her face. She's pregnant, just think about how pitiful she is.
"Also, your father is taking medicine made by someone else. If something happens to Jiang Qiao, your father won't be able to take that medicine anymore."
Zhang Dalei looked miserable. "You're using a carrot and stick approach. I have no choice but to comply. Let me tell you, I didn't agree because of what you said. I was just worried about my Jiang Qiao. Let her be sick. But let me tell you, you can't just pretend to be sick like this. She'll definitely be exposed at the hospital."
Song Shutian looked at Cao Mingyuan with a smile and said, "Old Cao, what's your opinion?"
Looking at him, he seemed like the wolf in sheep's clothing who wanted to abduct Little Red Riding Hood. Cao Mingyuan didn't say a word, "I have no ideas. I'll do whatever you tell me to do, as long as it doesn't violate the rules or my conscience. We're just indirectly going to capture the enemy."
"Director, just tell me, how do we do it? Do you have any medicine on you?"
Song Shutian nodded with a smile, "There really is. I really have to thank Jiang Qiao for this. I never expected it would come in handy at this time."
"Perfect timing, you two can take advantage of your illness to see your families. As for the rest, I'll take care of it."
Zhang Dalei's expression immediately turned serious. "Do you know that if the two of us fall, you'll be in even bigger trouble? You should be prepared for that."
Song Shutian nodded. "Don't worry, I can handle this. Remember, if you can't contact Jiang Qiao, contact Jian Ling and Ning Hao."
I reckon Jian Ling and the others should be here by now, most likely with the veteran. Jiang Qiao is in this state; they have no reason to stay home. They should try to be discreet and help him secretly.
Song Shutian pulled a packet of medicine from his inner pocket. "Come on, brothers, drink this. You'll all get sick tomorrow morning."
Zhang Dalei first asked about the antidote. "There is no antidote. It will get better naturally in a while. You will know then."
The two men exchanged a glance, resignedly drank it down, figuring that Jiang Qiao's creations wouldn't kill them.
"Let me tell you, if you can't find an opportunity, then you can't blame us."
Song Shutian chuckled twice. "Well, I doubt they can send anyone to watch you. It's contagious, but not really contagious; it just looks like it's contagious."
So don't worry, it will disappear naturally in time. As for the medication they use, you can decide for yourselves. Don't actually inject yourself if you're not sick.
Since it was just the two of them going out, Song Shutian said everything he could, and left the rest to them to figure out themselves.
On the morning of the 30th, Zhang Dalei and Cao Mingyuan both fell ill, their faces flushed and showing signs of fever. The guards initially thought they were faking it, but when they went inside, they were dumbfounded to find that both men were covered in rashes, the cause of which they had no idea what they were.
Song Shutian chimed in, "Hurry up, save him! He most likely has chickenpox. Hurry, or he'll die! I'm telling you, we're cooperating with the investigation, not criminals. Get him to the hospital right now."
The people below quickly sought instructions, especially since Zhang Dalei was among them. The old man from the Zhang family had been calling their phones non-stop lately, and they couldn't afford to take responsibility if something happened to him.
Watching the two people leave, Song Shutian breathed a long sigh of relief. Next, he would have to face questioning. He hoped that after they left, they could find out about Jiang Qiao or give Jian Ling and the others some help.
Jiang Qiao had no idea that Song Shutian had such an arrangement.
She was sitting somewhere secluded, receiving a telegram from Jian Ling.
The main point is that the brother's family has been settled. In addition, Zhang Erhu and Li Meixin have also received new information. In the temple they visited, they actually found traces of Xu Shaoqing. This person had stayed here before, but he left three years ago. As for where he went, no one knows.
It was fortunate that they brought a portrait with them; otherwise, the masters might not have been able to recognize Xu Shaoqing, as the difference would have been too great.
Jian Ling excitedly told Jiang Qiao, "Jiang Qiao, I never dreamed that this bastard would still be alive. If he weren't Cobra, I could have taken his head off and used it as a football."
Jiang Qiao gave a bitter smile, thinking to herself, if Xu Shaoqing were not alive, who would she seek revenge on? It seems that everything was arranged by fate. In this second life, the two of them still ended up facing each other.
"As we agreed, have them head towards the capital, but don't rush into the capital. Be careful on the way."
“I know, Jiang Qiao. Master Hou and the others are also heading to the capital. They've all heard about your situation. They said Uncle Liu and Chunming went back first. I only found out about this today when I contacted my family.”
Jiang Qiao pondered for a moment. She hadn't expected Hou Diankui and the others to return so quickly. This news was undoubtedly good for her, as she now had many more helpers.
"Alright, hurry back and tell Master Hou and your husband Lao Zhou not to move for now, especially your husband Lao Zhou. Xu Shaoqing has met both of you before, and although so many years have passed, it's hard to guarantee that he won't recognize you."
Now that Xu Shaoqing has left, he will definitely be in disguise. However, you should still ask Zhang Erhu and the others to adjust the portrait. I don't know if those two are capable.
"If that doesn't work, you can come. Right now, we don't know if Xu Shaoqing also disguised himself when he placed the order. We'll discuss this when we meet."
After the two finished their conversation, Jiang Qiao packed her things and stood up. She looked around and couldn't see a soul. She guessed that everyone was probably sitting together having a reunion dinner.
She sighed, realizing she had no hope of having a family reunion dinner this year, and turned to leave.
With the Lunar New Year approaching, there are no more checkpoints on the road, which makes things much easier for her.
While others were eating, Jiang Qiao was on her way.
Xu Shaoqing had already left, so there was no need for her to linger in the vicinity. She simply drove away.
She didn't know where that guy went, but it must be related to their upcoming mission. Right now, she just didn't know what the mission was.
