After taking a few steps, Jiang Qiao turned to Song Shutian and said, "By the way, those special prisoners should be moved to a different place. Or, we should move the old devil to a different place. It's not appropriate to keep them all together. It feels strange that a few more people have been brought here at this time. You should investigate who is behind this. It might be a prison break."
Song Shutian smiled, picked up his bag, and followed behind Jiang Qiao. "Why did you bring this up?"
Jiang Qiao sighed, "I don't want to think about it, but you're my friend, so I have to think about it for you. Two heads are better than one. Ning Hao's matter isn't simple either. That person was drugged and still got arrested. It seems like a waste of time. Perhaps there's more to this than meets the eye. You can ask Ning Hao about it later."
By the way, have you found the person who poisoned those people last time?
Song Shutian shook his head. "One of the cleaners died, and there are no more clues."
Jiang Qiao snorted, "Killing people to silence them, they're getting more and more capable. They've only got this much trick up their sleeve, they haven't improved at all. Let's investigate slowly, a fox will eventually show its tail."
What she really wanted to know was why these assassins weren't bothering her anymore. Had they changed their tactics or found someone else?
She didn't have an answer to this question, and Song Shutian couldn't explain too much to Jiang Qiao either. No matter how familiar they were, there were still rules and regulations in place, and some things couldn't be said casually.
"Are they stupid? They'll only get into trouble every time they come. Why would they come here to just hand people over to you to catch? It's good that they don't bother you. You can just focus on your work and save yourself the trouble of living in fear."
Song Shutian took Jiang Qiao and the old man back home, and they drove off. However, he didn't expect to run into Xiao Jing in the courtyard.
Seeing Jiang Qiao in a daze, Zhu Lin sighed, "Haozi is awake. I just wanted to come back and make something for the child, but Comrade Xiao insisted on coming over to help."
What could Zhu Lin say? Although she didn't like it, she couldn't bring herself to refuse, since this person was there to take care of her grandson.
Xiao Jing has a rather sharp tongue, "I didn't expect Miss Jiang Qiao to live in this place. She doesn't look like it at all. People who don't know her background would think she came from a high-class family."
Jiang Qiao sneered, "If I came out of the compound, Comrade Xiao Jing, do you think you would still have the right to stand here today and speak to me in this tone? I'm afraid you would have to think twice about every word you say."
However, there's a saying: "Never underestimate a young man's potential." My background may not be as privileged as yours, but in ten years, who will be better off is anyone's guess. So, be careful what you say and do. Didn't your parents teach you these things?
Qiao Jie snorted, "Girl, let's go home. Some people just don't understand human language, so it's pointless to talk to them."
Speechless after being confronted by the old couple, Xiao Jing was speechless. It wasn't that she was bad at talking, but she didn't dare to argue with Jiang Qiao at this moment.
She knew she was deliberately picking a fight, and that she was in the wrong, but she just couldn't stand the woman.
A girl with no background went against her time and time again. Do you think she could swallow this insult? No one had ever dared to treat her like this before.
Jiang Qiao couldn't be bothered to care what Xiao Jing was thinking. She hadn't done anything wrong. This woman must have been out of her mind to come running to her like that. So she wouldn't be polite.
Back inside, Qiao Jie urged his granddaughter to rest, saying, "Girl, take a nap. Grandpa will cook dinner. I'm going to check on Wang Dahua."
Although my body has recovered, I feel a bit tired. I was really startled by Ning Hao's condition today and have been busy making medicine to detoxify him.
After the old man left, Jiang Qiao washed her face and was about to go back to her room to lie down when Xiao Jing unexpectedly arrived uninvited.
Jiang Qiao was already quite tired, and then she encountered this persistent person whose attitude wasn't exactly friendly.
"What's going on? Are you never going to stop? What do you want? A fight or something? I don't have time for you. Goodbye."
Xiao Jing arrogantly said to Jiang Qiao, "I don't need you to chase me away. I'm leaving as soon as I finish speaking. You'd be more interested in keeping me here than not. Let me tell you, Ning Hao is mine, and no one can take him away. You'd better control yourself. What do you have to compare with me? You're just a kid, not even fully grown yet. You should be focusing on your studies."
Jiang Qiao snorted and looked at Xiao Jing disdainfully, "You're done talking? Then get lost. If you're so capable, go tell Ning Hao what you said. It's none of my business. Also, go back and take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror. You're nothing, and you can't possibly tell me what to do—"
After saying that, he slammed the door shut. "You're crazy! If you like her, go after her yourself. Why are you here gossiping about her?"
After being repeatedly confronted by Jiang Qiao, Xiao Jing finally reached her breaking point. Regardless of who they were, she raised her fist and started banging on Jiang Qiao's door.
Jiang Qiao was too lazy to say anything from inside the house, but she shouted loudly outside.
"We just wanted to replace our door, so you can smash it as hard as you want, and then you'll have to pay for a new door for us."
Jiang Qiao didn't want to confront the madman, but the people in the courtyard were disturbed by the thumping sound and came out to see what was going on.
"Oh my god, what are you doing—"
When Li Meilan saw someone kicking down Jiang Qiao's door, she was immediately displeased.
Zhu Lin turned around and found that Xiao Jing was gone, so she quickly came out to check. She heard the noise and ran over to see what was happening. She saw Xiao Jing kicking the door of Old Qiao's house.
The old lady was not happy. "Comrade Xiao, what do you mean by this? Are you here to cause trouble for our family? You should leave now. We can't afford to entertain a guest like you. What did Jiang Qiao do to you? Why are you banging on her door like this? You have no manners at all!"
After Zhu Lin said that, Xiao Jing began to regret it. Why couldn't she have resisted? The old lady already didn't have a good impression of her. Now that she had messed things up, Ning Hao wasn't interested in her to begin with. Without the old lady's help, how could she possibly win over Ning Hao?
Coming to her senses, she looked annoyed. "Grandma Ning, I'm so sorry. I was a little inappropriate talking to Jiang Qiao just now. I asked her to open the door, but she wouldn't, so I got angry. I'm really sorry, please don't be angry."
Before Zhu Lin could speak, Li Meilan spoke first, looking Xiao Jing up and down, "Oh, where did this one come from? Running wild in our yard? Don't you know who lives in this yard? Do you really think we're easy to bully?"
So what if we're poor? Who are we going to complain to? You look so well-dressed, yet you're always doing such ridiculous things. What did that little girl do to offend you? You don't even seem to know her.
"Let me tell you, Jiang Qiao is the most well-behaved child in our compound. If you dare to bully her again, don't say I won't stand for it, everyone in this compound will. You try me if you don't believe me."
Xiao Jing's disadvantage was that she changed into civilian clothes. If she had worn a military uniform, Li Meilan probably wouldn't have had the confidence to talk to her like that.
