Yang Yunqi's sudden awakening surprised the doctors. When they saw Jiang Qiao arrive, they all wanted to pull her aside to find out what had happened.
Gu Zhengkai shook his head. "Jiang Qiao is very weak right now. She almost fainted just now. The girl doesn't have any other skills except for acupuncture. She's been learning it since she was little. Even if you ask her to explain it, she can't explain it clearly. After all, traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine are two different disciplines. Let the child take a look at the patient first. I'll take her home in a bit. If there are any problems, you can discuss them slowly later when you have time."
Gu Zhengkai's words were true; anyone could see Jiang Qiao's pale and weak appearance.
"Uncle Yang, how are you feeling?"
Upon seeing Jiang Qiao, even a grown man like Yang Yunqi couldn't help but shed tears. "Girl, thank you—"
Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "Uncle, you're too kind. I'm your niece, and I can't just be a niece for nothing. I can't stand idly by when you're in trouble."
"Just focus on getting better. If anything happens tonight, have someone from your family come find me immediately. Director Song and the others know. I'll head back now."
He turned to the Yang family children and told them that they were all good children who had come all this way to take care of their father.
Jiang Qiao was helped out by Gu Zhengkai. When Qiao Jie saw his granddaughter's appearance, the old man understood everything.
"Girl, are you alright?"
Jiang Qiao shook her head, but then immediately named a medicine, which made Qiao Jie's heart tighten.
"Okay, you go back to your room and rest. Grandpa will go and make you some medicine. Liu Zi, make some for the child to drink."
"Boss, let's eat here tonight, so I don't have to cook at home."
Gu Zhengkai was more than happy to oblige. "Okay, Sixth Uncle, I'll help you—"
Jiang Qiao went to lie down on the bed. There was no shortage of firewood and coal at home, and the room was very warm. Actually, she didn't want to sleep; she just felt a little tired.
In addition, the name Xu Shaoqing is now like a demon in her heart; she can't have peace of mind until this person is eliminated.
Unable to sleep, he could only take out his radio transmitter to contact Song Shutian and Jiang Jinyu.
When Gu Zhengkai came in carrying the things, he saw his niece busy on the bed.
Although he was taken aback, he had heard his father talk about this girl before, mainly because he felt sorry for her.
"You child, your body is already like this, can't you just lie down and rest properly?"
Jiang Qiao sighed, "Uncle, if we don't get rid of these people, I'm worried they'll reach out to the people around me. Before it was my younger brother, older brother, and those children. I don't know who will be next."
I'm very worried, really. I always feel uneasy. I won't be able to sleep soundly until these people are found.
Gu Zhengkai handed the drink to Jiang Qiao. "Have a drink first. These people aren't in a hurry. It's only a matter of time. We're not made of paper. They can't touch us yet. Let me tell you, I'm starting to slowly reconnect with those old comrades. So, girl, you should take a break."
Jiang Qiao sighed, "Uncle, I bet these people hate me to death, especially that old devil. I have a feeling that the leader of this special organization is definitely connected to him. Do you think she'll let me get away with this if I mess with her people?"
Perhaps some things will gradually come to light, but I've given too much, worrying and working tirelessly every day, and I haven't even received a single penny in salary yet.
Gu Zhengkai chuckled and patted his niece's head. "You silly girl, are you short of that little bit of money?"
"It's not bad, but I feel frustrated."
Gu Zhengkai brought over the transmitter and helped Jiang Qiao receive it. "Wow, Uncle, you're amazing! You even know how to do this?"
Gu Zhengkai smiled and said, "Don't forget what your uncle did back then. It was underground. This is not a difficult thing to do. Besides, having a telegraph machine around will make my work easier."
The back-and-forth transmission of intelligence often wasted time and missed opportunities. Besides, so many eyes were watching; those who did underground work back then really had it tough, constantly risking their lives.
Jiang Qiao smiled as she took the telegram from Gu Zhengkai, then translated it. After reading its contents, she gave a wry smile.
"What happened? What did they say?"
"As for praising me, they are investigating Xu Shaoqing and that old Japanese devil. Thank you for your cooperation."
Gu Zhengkai smiled and said, "No need for thanks. We're all comrades-in-arms. If anyone should thank you, it's you. You don't know, our prison warden is known for his seriousness. It's really rare to see him thank you so much today."
Jiang Qiao sighed, "They're all good comrades. It's just a coincidence that things happened today."
"Your luck is simply incredible, really. I can't even express how I feel. It's like whenever you show up, you always manage to spot a problem."
Jiang Qiao waved her hand. "It's a feeling that can't be explained. Actually, the person who came with me also saw the problem. Otherwise, how could we have cooperated so well?"
To put it bluntly, you could do it too, but that place isn't under your jurisdiction, and you rarely go there, so you wouldn't be able to spot the problem. You need to be very careful with personnel appointments in the future.”
Gu Zhengkai hesitated for a moment, "What do you think if I'm transferred?"
Seeing her uncle bring up the topic again, Jiang Qiao didn't know what advice to give. "Uncle, just do what you think is right, but you must put your safety first. My grandfather only has you and my dad left as his sons. Neither of them can be harmed. He has raised two grandsons all these years. It has not been easy for him."
Even if Gu Zhengkai didn't ask, he knew how the old man, who lived in the cowshed, had managed all those years. After all, his son had told him some things. So, his father was truly great, acting as both father and mother.
Jiang Qiao could understand Gu Zhengkai's feelings. People strive for higher positions, and water flows downhill. It was indeed a waste for someone of his level to stay in prison. Someone who had studied abroad should not be confined to such a narrow world. Although he could live a stable life, perhaps this was not what his uncle wanted.
"Uncle, remember this: I'm here for you. Although I'm young and don't have many connections, I will fight anyone who harms my family to the death."
That one sentence almost brought tears to Gu Zhengkai's eyes. This niece was so protective of her child; she said exactly what a mother should say. How could he not be moved?
Jiang Qiao lowered her head and continued writing the reply, then asked Gu Zhengkai to send it out.
"Alright, you rest for a while. Your sixth grandfather is cooking. I'll go check on him."
Jiang Qiao never woke up from that sleep, and it took Qiao Jie and the other two working together to get her medicine down her throat.
"Uncle, what should we do? What's wrong with the girl?"
Qiao Jie sighed, "The girl has internal injuries. It shouldn't be like this. This child has treated patients before, so why did this happen this time?"
