Upon learning that Chiang Qing is no longer in the mental hospital and her current whereabouts are unknown, Qi Taiguo became very anxious and restricted Cheng Suâs movements, insisting that someone accompany her if she needed to go out.
His wartime-level anxiety left Cheng Su feeling helpless. She said, "Relax, sheâs definitely not in Qing City right now!"
"How do you know? Sheâs ill, who knows where sheâs hiding. Youâre pregnant now and pretty far along, you absolutely canât be careless," Qi Taiguo replied.
Cheng Su tilted her head and said, "I donât know, itâs just a gut feeling. I havenât sensed anything off around me; everythingâs pretty calm and peaceful."
A womanâs sixth sense told her that Chiang Qing wasnât in Qing City.
"Whether sheâs here or not, donât even mention it; itâs better to be safe and vigilant," Qi Taiguo said coldly. "Since she was able to leave without anyone noticing, those behind her must be extraordinary. If sheâs still fixated on this mess and comes over, then..."
"But your nervousness is rubbing off on me. The babyâs been restless these past few days. Such mood swings arenât good for nurturing the baby," Cheng Su said, frowning.
Qi Taiguo was stunned: "Is that so?"
Cheng Su nodded, saying, "The babyâs been moving too much."
"Well, that means heâs pretty active," Qi Taiguo laughed. "Alright, Iâll handle anything major, donât worry, just relax."
"Come here, let me lean on you." Cheng Su gestured.
When Qi Taiguo sat down, she rested her head on his shoulder and said, "You shouldnât be too tense. Chiang Qingâs greatest backing is gone. Especially at this critical moment, who would dare to help her do something noticeable? Even if she wants to stir up trouble, sheâll hide for a while!"
"Hmm!" Qi Taiguoâs muscles relaxed, and he said, "Iâm not afraid of anything else, just worried that she might become even crazier and harm you all. If it gets to that point, Iâd quit being a soldier; Iâd kill her myself."
Cheng Suxin shivered and instinctively hugged his arm.
"Donât say such things; itâll scare the baby," Cheng Su gently said.
Qi Taiguo grunted, then couldnât help but roar softly after a while, "Who the hell was so bored as to get her out? Aside from Chiang Tian, I canât think of anyone else. Plus, sheâs been inside for almost a year, whether sheâs fully insane or half insane, what good does it do to let such a lunatic out? Itâll only bring calamity to the world."
Cheng Su also pondered, saying, "Could it be a hidden move from Jiang Conghe or the Loo Family, like the saying âthe cunning rabbit has three burrowsâ?"
"I donât think so. Jiang Conghe was willing to send his daughter in, why would he use a valuable backup to get her out? Heâd use it for himself, wouldnât he? As for the Loo Family, if they had a fallback plan, theyâd wait until her sentence was completed to act. So I donât think itâs either of those families; theyâre all selfish people, and even if they thought of Chiang Qing, it wouldnât be to act now." Qi Taiguoâs mind was particularly clear.
"If itâs none of them, why was Chiang Qing taken away? Whatâs worth doing this for her? Who exactly did this?" Cheng Su murmured, "To go through such trouble to get her out of the hospital, and keep it secret, there must be a motive, right? Either itâs something related to the Jiang and Loo families, or itâs something connected to Chiang Qing herself. Those behind it surely have a hidden agenda. Weâll see what kind of leverage she holds!"
Qi Taiguo pressed his lips together; after Cheng Suâs analysis, he too felt that those people had an agenda!
