Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s-Chapter 2518 - 2454: Keep Her Locked Up for Now

"I understand, I’ll stay calm." Chiang Xiao gritted her teeth, took out another bottle of water, twisted it open herself, and drank it all in a few gulps.

She just felt that if she really wasn’t Chen Zhu’s daughter, how great that would be.

That would truly be a blessing!

She so wished she had nothing to do with this woman!

Before, she never really considered that this was a possibility, so when she just heard what Chen Zhu said, she couldn’t control herself for a moment.

But Chen Zhu fainted at this critical moment.

"Who knows when she’ll wake up!" Chiang Xiao gnashed her teeth as she looked at the comatose Chen Zhu.

Meng Xinian frowned and said, "It doesn’t matter when she wakes up, she can’t be let out. Since Nian Che thought to use her, maybe she does have some bits that can be useful."

This Chen Zhu, wherever she goes, she’s a calamity.

Chiang Xiao had previously thought it would be fine to simply cut ties and ignore her, but in the end, Chen Zhu still managed to intrude into their lives in such a way; this was something Chiang Xiao found intolerable.

"Let me take her in first; after all, she won’t wake up once she’s inside and won’t discover the secret of the space."

"Then how will she wake up? Are you not interested in seeing how long it takes for her to wake? Or to continue questioning her?" Meng Xinian suggested, "Let’s just keep her here for now."

Chiang Xiao thought about it, and indeed, this was the best solution.

They tied Chen Zhu up and left her in the study.

After returning to the bedroom, Chiang Xiao seemed a bit listless, unable to muster any energy.

Meng Xinian was thinking of a way to cheer her up when the phone rang.

"Little, how about you take a bath and rest for a bit? I’ll call you once I’ve made dinner." They hadn’t eaten dinner yet, actually.

After all this chaos, they almost forgot about it.

Chiang Xiao nodded blankly, and in a flash, she entered the space herself.

Meng Xinian sighed and went to answer the phone.

It was Old Meng calling, asking how things went today.

Meng Xinian casually explained a few things.

As soon as he hung up, the phone rang again.

This time it was Jiang Yingqiong calling. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

"Is that Xinian? Are you back?"

"Yes, Madam."

"I heard there’s talk about that dispatch list, you..."

"Madam, let’s wait for orders from above." It wasn’t convenient to discuss this on the phone now.

Jiang Yingqiong realized and chuckled ruefully, "Look at me, losing my head for a moment. You always know what’s best, so I won’t say much. How’s Little?"

"Little is taking a bath now."

At this point, Meng Xinian didn’t want to call Chiang Xiao over; better to let her calm down a bit.

"Does Madam have any messages for me to pass on?"

"I wanted to tell her that the person she asked me to investigate has been checked by the relevant departments, and no issues were found. Ask her if she wants to continue investigating."

Meng Xinian understood immediately that she was referring to Hu Xiangyong.

Hu Xiangyong dared to strut into the Capital City, so his fake identity must be flawless.

If it weren’t for Director Wei’s side already targeting various criminals and remembering aliases, they might really have found nothing.

Jiang Yingqiong’s methods were straightforward and aboveboard, so they really couldn’t find anything.

"I’ll tell her, and I thank Madam on her behalf."

"Look at you, getting more and more polite?"

"Gratitude is appropriate," Meng Xinian said, "Does Madam have any other matters?" If not, he needed to go cook.
