Qi Taiguo returned home with a stomach full of anger. Cheng Su saw his face didnāt look right and asked about it, then laughed furiously: "Her mental illness isnāt cured at all, is it? How can she be so shameless?"
Itās really confusing, this Chiang Qing person, where does she get the confidence to think that Qi Taiguo would follow her opinion? And thereby protect her!
Itās simply ridiculous. Did she think sheās the head of state, expecting a deputy battalion commander to solely guard her, an ordinary person?
"Knowing that this is impossible, she still mentions it. Sheās doing this purely to disgust people, right?" Cheng Su said.
"Who knows her." Qi Taiguoās face was cold and hard; he didnāt even want to mention her.
Cheng Su shook her head, thinking it was enough.
"I wonder how this would sound when it reaches her dadās ears? Her dad is surely convinced sheās cured!" Cheng Su said.
Qi Taiguoās eyes flashed, "Iāll give Ning Ge a call."
Ning Ge received Qi Taiguoās call, sneered a few times, thought for a moment, and then dialed another number: "Itās me, Ning Ge..."
...
Jiang Conghe has been extremely vexed these days, battling his wifeās family every day, while Lu Shufen bickers with him. Recently, heās been even more depressed because his daughter was merely accompanying to investigate, yet fell into the hands of separatists and was injured.
Upon hearing this news, Jiang Conghe dare not tell Lu Shufen, lest she seize the opportunity to make a fuss again.
Ring ring.
"Commander, Mr. Chiang requests a meeting." The internal phone rang, and when Jiang Conghe answered, the person on the other end said.
"Let him in!" Jiang Conghe was delighted and said quickly.
Someone knocked on the door, and Jiang Conghe hurriedly sat upright, looking at the person entering. Once the door was closed, he darkened his face and said: "You still know to come see your father?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Dafang was about to turn and leave.
"Stop!" Jiang Conghe commanded him, "Whatās with your attitude?"
"If Commander Chiang doesnāt want to see me, Iāll go!" Jiang Dafang said with a cold expression.
Jiang Conghe felt angry but, seeing the face so resembling his, he held back his temper and said, "You stubborn boy. Have a seat!"
Jiang Dafang sat down.
"Go on, whatās the matter?" Jiang Conghe lit a cigar and asked.
"Is Chiang Qing now in that Qing City?" Jiang Dafang asked directly.
Jiang Congheās eyes sharpened. This son had never cared about anyone else in the family. Why suddenly ask about Qingqing now?
"Why do you ask? Your sister is currently with Secretary Gao on a local research trip." Jiang Conghe feigned indifference and said, "Why concern yourself with your sister all of a sudden!"
Jiang Dafang gave a cold snort: "Iām concerned about her? For what?"
A cold light flashed in Jiang Congheās eyes, yet before he could speak, Jiang Dafang continued: "If it werenāt because of you, I wouldnāt care where she is!"
Jiang Conghe hesitated: "What do you mean?"
"My dear sister has really made you proud. People told me she actually requested Qi Taiguo, that Deputy Battalion Commander, to act as her night guard." Jiang Dafang said, "Iāve heard before that, dad, you took quite the tumble regarding Chiang Qing and that Qi fellow. Iām afraid youāll trip over the same issue again, so I came to ask about it. If you think Iām meddling, pretend I didnāt speak. Iām leaving!"
Jiang Conghe was already stunned. Seeing him stand up, he shouted, "You stop. Whatās going on, tell me more clearly!"
Following Ning Geās guidance, Jiang Dafang added some embellishments to his story.
As Jiang Conghe listened, the veins bulged on his temples. He slapped the table forcefully: "This wretched girl, how much trouble does she want to cause me!"
