Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2941: Chapter 2877: Accompanying Him

”Let the matter about Nian Che pass, don’t pursue it any further.”

Jiang Xiao was startled.

She suddenly recalled that Li Hanzhong should know about organizations like Dark Star, right? It’s unlikely to be detached from the Alliance.

So, is it under his jurisdiction?

Or is it a separate department?

After all, Dark Star has been around longer than Li Hanzhong’s term.

Before Li Hanzhong took this position, Dark Star already existed.

”I know you’re smart and must have understood what I mean, right?”

”I understand, I won’t actively investigate Nian Che’s matter.”

But if it’s passive, she couldn’t be blamed.

Also, she wouldn’t investigate Nian Che, but she would definitely continue to investigate the people behind Hu Xiangyong.

And surely those people behind him are related.

In the end, they converge.

Thus, Jiang Xiao agreed to Li Hanzhong, but it was merely a facade.

Li Hanzhong didn’t say much to her, nor did he speak of what was found about Nian Che’s body, and of course, Jiang Xiao didn’t ask further.

”Xiao Sixth knew you were hospitalized, your aunt told him. So after you’re discharged, give him a call to explain. I heard Xiao Sixth still wants to come to the Capital to see you.”

At this time, Jiang Shiheng absolutely cannot come to the Capital.

Jiang Xiao knew that better than anyone.

Because coming from D State to the Capital, there’s too much distance with too many opportunities and places where assassins could strike.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiao didn’t dare to stay, she quickly packed her things and went home with Meng Xinian.

After returning home, she didn’t even have a wash before calling Jiang Shiheng.

If she had delayed the call even a bit, Jiang Shiheng might have seriously considered heading to the Capital.

After hearing her explanation and being reassured by her, knowing Meng Xinian also returned, Jiang Shiheng was relieved.

Jiang Xiao hung up the phone and just let out a breath when the phone rang again.

”Hello?”

”Xiao Chiang, it’s Grandma Cui.”

Jiang Xiao was surprised, ”Grandma Cui?”

”Are you surprised? You haven’t visited me for several days. Were you busy lately?”

”Um, not exactly, just a few things happened, but everything’s fine now.”

”What happened? Tell Grandma Cui about it.”

Is this an invitation to the nursing home?

But right now, she only wanted to stay with Meng Xinian, nowhere else.

Jiang Xiao glanced at Meng Xinian, who was outside talking with Ding Haijing and the others.

She knew he must have listened to her report last night and realized she had deliberately blurred some details, so he wanted to hear what Ding Haijing and the others had to say.

Knowing Ding Haijing’s straightforward nature, he would certainly tell the truth, including whether she could dodge, feigning to be controlled by Hu Xiangyong - all of which would be honestly reported to Tyrant Meng.

Jiang Xiao knew she would surely be punished by Tyrant Meng in various ways tonight.

”Xiao Chiang?”

”Sorry, Grandma Cui, uh, Brother Xinian just came home, I want to stay with him for a few days, can I come visit you later?”

Madam Cui was surprised.

She rarely initiated invitations, but had never been refused.

Jiang Xiao was being too frank, directly saying she wanted to stay home with her fiancé and would visit her later.

How many people could be so candid?

After the surprise, Madam Cui couldn’t help but laugh.

She really liked Jiang Xiao’s straightforward nature.

Because Jiang Xiao asked nothing of her or Commander Cui, she was able to be this frank.
