Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 2039: Chapter 2041: The Enemy at the Gates

Came looking?

Chiang Qing looked at them, suspicion rising in her eyes. How could they have come so quickly? Did those two fools say something?

No, they wouldn’t dare!

The money hasn’t been handed over yet. If they talk, they’ll only get caught. They wouldn’t dare!

”I just went to buy some buns and saw someone asking around. I didn’t dare to look or run. I only came back after they left!” Niu Da said with a pale face.

He was dripping with sweat, and his legs were shaking. He looked like an apprehensive thief.

Chiang Qing sneered at him and then moved to the window, carefully peeking outside. But from this distance, she couldn’t make out much.

”How many people?” she asked.

”I don’t know, I didn’t dare to linger. Miss Chiang, what should we do now?” Niu Da’s body was trembling like a sieve.

What to do? If they get caught, they’ll end up in jail, right?

Oh God, he can’t go to jail. Even if he does, Niu Er can’t. Otherwise, what will happen to their little sister?

Niu Da looked at Niu Er, hoping his little brother, who was always quicker-witted, could think of something to do next.

Niu Er was also flabbergasted, looking back at him.

Should they knock this woman out, grab the money, and escape? Staying here would just mean waiting to be caught or die.

Chiang Qing didn’t notice Niu Er’s darting eyes; she paced back and forth, pondering what to do.

Taking people and moving... that’s impossible now. Too much noise would draw attention immediately.

Cheng Su... Ah, it must have been that call she made last night that they traced.

So now, is it the time for the last battle, face to face?

Heh heh...

Chiang Qing turned back and caught a glimpse of the fierce look in Niu Er’s eyes, her alertness suddenly heightened.

Her mind raced, and she quickly said: ”You guys go!”

The Niu brothers were stunned.

Chiang Qing took a stack of money from her bag and handed it over: ”For your expenses. Since they’re almost here now, there’s no chance to negotiate the ransom.”

The brothers’ eyes lit up slightly.

”Whether you get caught or not, I can’t guarantee. It all depends on you two.” Chiang Qing said coldly: ”Additionally, to take this money, you need to do me a favor!”

”What is it?” Niu Er licked his lips.

”Deliver a message!” Chiang Qing said coldly.

The two hesitated a bit. Delivering a message was like walking into a trap, wasn’t it?

”Once you’re out, you can find someone else to deliver it.” Chiang Qing seemed to have read their thoughts.

Niu Er looked at his elder brother, who seemed indecisive. He then glanced at Mother Qi, who was groaning, and was scared. If she died, the offense would be even greater.

He took a look at the money in Chiang Qing’s hand and said, ”Alright, we’ll do it!”

Chiang Qing then took out some paper and pen, quickly wrote a line, and handed the money to them.

Just as Niu Da was about to take it, Chiang Qing retracted her hand and said: ”Swear by your deceased mother’s name that you will deliver this letter!”

She had previously overheard these two fools talking, knowing they were extremely filial to their deceased mother. So she made them swear.

Niu Da and his brother’s faces changed slightly, but still, they raised their fingers and followed Chiang Qing, swearing word by word. Listening to those vicious oaths, their hearts were both angry and trembling.

After they swore, Chiang Qing gave them the items.

After watching them leave, she turned to look at Mother Qi, then emptied her entire backpack, taking out some syringes, with a slight curve on her lips.
