Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 3066: Chapter 3002: Nearly Missed the Capture

Ding Haijing and Guan Tiezhu dragged the people directly in. The two of them seemed to be in dire straits, with their heads hanging and not making a sound.

As soon as they entered, Jiang Xiao immediately closed and locked the door.

At least this incident helped her forget the emotions brought by Meng Xinian just now.

”We don’t have a woodshed here.”

Ding Haijing turned back and made a joke with Jiang Xiao.

Finally bringing the people back, he too breathed a sigh of relief.

The hardships and troubles of this trip he would not mention to Jiang Xiao, and he wasn’t one to complain, but he and Guan Tiezhu definitely felt that successfully bringing the people back was cause for celebration.

”If there was a woodshed, we could have locked them up in it,” he added.

Jiang Xiao chuckled.

”Woodshed or not, as long as the people are brought back, I’m very happy. Thank you both, and you’ve worked hard.”

Now that the people were brought back, Jiang Xiao, though excited, knew there wasn’t an urgent need to interrogate Chun Hong immediately. She could see that Ding Haijing and Guan Tiezhu were exhausted to the extreme.

So she immediately went over, took the people from their hands, and shoved them into the corner, dropping them to the ground.

With her force, Mei Chunhong and Deng Qingjiang awoke from their drowsiness.

Mei Chunhong tiredly raised her head and saw Jiang Xiao, her features somewhat blurred under the light.

”Who are you?”

Mei Chunhong’s voice was very hoarse, indicating she had suffered significantly after being captured and was almost at her limit.

Jiang Xiao did not answer her question, instead calling out, ”Snow Ball, come over.”

The white cat, which had spent most of the day in space, elegantly strolled over.

”Meow.”

”Snow Ball, keep an eye on them. If they dare make a move, scratch them.”

Saying this, Jiang Xiao approached Ding Haijing and Guan Tiezhu, ”Why did you suddenly return?”

They had come back much earlier than she had anticipated.

She initially thought they would return after Tyrant Meng came back.

They hadn’t contacted her before, saying the people had been caught.

As she was asking, she hurriedly let them into the living room to sit down and poured each of them a glass of water,

Fortunately, the cooled boiled water at her house was mixed with some of the Spring Water, a drink that could help them quickly recover their strength.

Ding Haijing drank the water and regained his composure.

”Several forces were competing for the people; we had to be fast. Wait a moment longer, and they would have been gone.”

He said this lightly, but Jiang Xiao could hear the underlying difficulty and danger.

”Have you not rested for a long time?” she asked, then stood up to bring them two boxes of snacks.

This was the easiest food for her to bring out. It was also effective for replenishing energy and strength.

As soon as she brought over the snacks, Guan Tiezhu took a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing as he said to Jiang Xiao, ”Sorry, Xiao Jiang, I’m really starving.”

Jiang Xiao quickly shook her head, ”No need to apologize, hurry and eat, eat a few pieces, I’ll go cook some noodles for you.”

Under normal circumstances, Guan Tiezhu and Ding Haijing wouldn’t let her cook for them so late, but this time, Ding Haijing took a piece of pastry, stuffed it into his mouth, then leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes, saying, ”Sorry to trouble you, call me when it’s ready, I need to take a nap.”
