This time, Jiang Qiao looked puzzled. "See a doctor? What's the doctor's background? Have you checked?"
Yang Yunqi shook his head. "I've only seen the other party, and I haven't had time to investigate yet. This is your responsibility. Time is too tight, and I simply don't have the time."
Jiang Qiao nodded and then made further arrangements for the division of labor.
"Uncle Yang, how is my aunt doing?"
"It's all good. The man and your aunt have a good relationship. I heard they knew each other before, but for some reason, she ended up marrying your uncle by accident. Fortunately, they are in a good relationship now, your brother is doing well, and the man's family is well-off. You can rest assured about that."
However, Jiang Mei did come to see your aunt before, supposedly to help her find a job. By the way, do you know what Jiang Mei's current boyfriend does?
"You're friends with Xu Mingdong, do you know how old that man is?"
The brother and sister looked at Yang Yunqi in surprise, "How old are you?"
Yang Yunqi gave a wry smile. "She's about my age. How old is Jiang Mei? So young and she's with a man like that. The problem is, if that man were an honest person, it would be fine, but he used to be a gangster and should have some money."
"Wait a minute, I heard that Jiang Mei's boyfriend is from a rural area in the suburbs, so why is he here?"
Yang Yunqi took a sip of water. "It's true that it's the suburbs of your area, but this man usually works in the city. Speaking of work, I have to say that he's quite shrewd. He just strolls around and helps the factory buy things, and he still gets paid."
That's why this person could associate with Jiang Mei; they're both bad news.
Now that the next steps had been agreed upon, Jiang Qiao suggested going out for dinner. She wanted to treat herself to a good meal so she could be full of energy for work tomorrow.
Yang Yunqi hadn't expected Jiang Qiao, a young girl, to be so capable. She really didn't care about the cost of the food she ordered. However, there were only two main dishes in the restaurant, so Jiang Qiao didn't even have the chance to feel sorry for the food.
Besides, she thinks the prices of food outside are really cheap these days. And isn't the point of earning money to spend it? If she doesn't feed her subordinates well, who will work for her?
Yang Yunqi did not stay at the hotel where Jiang Qiao and the others lived, but at a neighboring hotel. After dinner, they went back to their respective homes and began preparing to complete their missions the next day.
Jiang Qiao and Gu Zhixuan went to wait near Xu Mingdong's house early in the morning. When they saw the woman come out, the two siblings followed her leisurely. Halfway there, Jiang Qiao and Gu Zhixuan separated. She asked her cousin to take the woman to the factory, while she turned and went to the place where the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law often went for treatment.
According to inquiries, opinions about this doctor are mixed; some say he's alright at treating patients, while others are not so sure.
What everyone says is just for reference; as for their level of expertise, that's really not Jiang Qiao's main concern.
After finding out the address, Jiang Qiao found a place to dress up simply and strolled over there.
The doctor lived in a detached house with its own yard. From the outside, the house looked nice, but the front door was always closed. She thought to herself, "Normally, when you're doing business, the front door should be wide open. I don't know why this place is doing business with its doors closed. My first feeling is that something is not right."
I knocked on the door and went in, saying that a neighbor had referred me, and that I needed to see a doctor.
The person who opened the door was a boy who was about ten years old.
Hearing that she was there for a medical checkup, he didn't say anything and just led Jiang Qiao inside.
Despite the short distance, Jiang Qiao was very observant. "Master, someone has come to see a doctor—"
Upon reaching the door, the young man first gave a greeting before lifting the curtain to let Jiang Qiao into the house.
Seeing the two people sitting on the kang (a heated brick bed), Jiang Qiao sighed inwardly, "Life is full of unexpected encounters. I never thought I would meet an old friend here."
The woman sitting on the kang (a heated brick bed) was the one who went out for training with Jiang Qiao back then. As for the man, she also knew him; he was their team doctor when they were training in China. She just never expected that the two of them would end up together.
As Jiang Qiao was reflecting on her experience, the couple were taken aback when they saw her, a young woman. It wasn't that they hadn't treated patients like this before, but they had never seen someone so old come alone.
Jiang Qiao spoke shyly and timidly, "Doctor, could you take a look at me? My period hasn't come for a long time, could you tell if there's something wrong?"
Jiang Qiao's words were ambiguous, and the other person's intuition was that this young girl was doing something shameful.
Shen Ruifang looked Jiang Qiao up and down, her eyes full of disdain, which Jiang Qiao could easily see; she wasn't blind.
Shen Ruifang has never changed her personality. To be honest, in Jiang Qiao's opinion, this former partner is really not suitable to be a secret agent. She is the kind of person who is clear about her likes and dislikes. If she looks down on someone, she can express it with just a look. So many years have passed and she has never changed. Do you really think she is a little girl and can't understand her?
Zhou Yu took Jiang Qiao's pulse in a seemingly professional manner. As far as she knew, this former team doctor was a Western medicine practitioner. She had never seen him use traditional Chinese medicine before, and she didn't know when he had learned this technique. Or perhaps, this guy was just pretending.
"Little girl, how old are you this year?"
Shen Ruifang spoke first, and Jiang Qiao lowered her head, murmuring, "Seventeen—"
Do your parents know about this situation?
Jiang Qiao shuddered in fright. "No, I don't know. I didn't dare tell them. Doctor, do I have some kind of illness? I'm so scared—"
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. Zhou Yu sighed beside her, "Young lady, you're pregnant. You know what I mean, right?"
Jiang Qiao shook her head, and Zhou Yu continued to explain, "Having a happy event means you're pregnant, you're carrying a child, you should understand that now, right?"
Jiang Qiao's eyes widened, tears still clinging to her lips. "A child? Doctor, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Shen Ruifang snorted coldly, "You've already done it, what, are you afraid of having a child? I'm not trying to criticize you, but you're a young girl, how can you not know how to protect yourself? Sigh, think of a way to get an abortion quickly, did you bring any money?"
Jiang Qiao nodded, and shakily pulled out a little over a dollar from her pocket. "I... I've only saved this much. I don't know if it's enough."
Shen Ruifang waved her hand impatiently, "Alright, consider it a good deed we're doing. I'll go get your medicine, you wait here."
Jiang Qiao nodded silently, then lowered her head and stood on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) secretly wiping away her tears.
"Sigh, you're so young, you'd better get rid of it quickly, otherwise, if word gets out, you'll never be able to face anyone again. Young lady, you should cherish yourself in the future, otherwise you'll be the one who gets hurt and suffers."
