Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chen Feitang thought Jiang Yao was not good enough for Lu Xingzhi. Jiang Yao could hide behind Lu Xingzhi and enjoy his protection, but Chen Feitang could fight alongside Lu Xingzhi and not burden Lu Xingzhi!
Captain Hao looked at Jiang Yao and thought that the young master’s wife was not as soft and cuddly as she appeared to be. She did not let go of any opportunity to step on other people.
Everyone knew that Chen Feitang, Jiang Yao, and Lu Xingzhi had a personal grudge. That was also why when Jiang Yao stayed in Xiang City, the people in Jindo City let Chen Feitang return to the army. That was because the people in Jindo City knew that anyone could become Jiang Yao’s a.s.sistant, except for Chen Feitang.
Xiang City was far away from Jindo City. The people in Jindo City were afraid that Chen Feitang would act impulsively, so they did not hesitate to give the order for Chen Feitang to return to the army. Old Master Chen would not say a word about it.
“That matter is settled. Sha Ying, you can go back now.” After saying that, Captain Hao turned to look at Mr. Ouyang and said, “Can I borrow your office for a while? I have something to tell Lady Lu in private.”
“Go ahead.”
Ouyang made a hand gesture and then left the office.
Since Ouyang had left, Chen Feitang was even more ashamed to continue staying there. She looked intensely at Jiang Yao and then followed Ouyang to leave.
Captain Hao waited for the two of them to leave before he spoke to Jiang Yao about what he wanted to say.
Captain Hao said, “Ding Xiaomei will arrive at Shu City tomorrow. Young Master Lu is with Brother Jing now. Ding Xiaomei will go to Brother Ding to a.s.sist you and help you gather information. Ding Xiaomei is Brother Ding’s daughter. It’s easier for Ding Xiaomei to gain Brother Ding’s trust than it is for you guys. It’s more suitable for her to stay by Brother Ding’s side. She can also ensure that Brother Ding doesn’t suspect you guys.”
“Ding Xiaomei…”
Jiang Yao suddenly smiled. In fact, she was not surprised. “Ding Xiaomei must hate her father very much.”
Captain Hao said, “Of course, she hates him. After knowing that the person who betrayed her was her father’s adopted G.o.ddaughter, she hated him even more. She went to Shu City for revenge and to get back her brother. Ding Xiaomei’s son is in the hospital and is taken care of by the military doctor. After Ding Xiaomei found out about that, she asked us a question. She wanted to know if her eldest brother’s eldest son was still alive?”
Captain Hao sighed. “After she found out the answer, she hid in a corner and cried for a long, long time.”
“She came here to ask her father for money to treat her brother’s child and younger brother. In the end, she lost her brother, and her life was ruined. She even lost her brother’s child. If it were anyone else, they would be able to withstand such a heavy blow.” Jiang Yao shook her head helplessly. “Furthermore, the person who sold her was so close to her father. One could even say that she had taken over her ident.i.ty.”
“When Ding Xiaomei returns, she will definitely do something against Wen Yunfang. You guys should adapt to the situation. You should stay with Wen Yunfang and be careful at all times.” Even though everyone had told Ding Xiaomei not to do anything dangerous when she returned to Shu City, however, no one could guarantee that she would follow through. Thus, Captain Hao could only encourage her to do the right thing.
Since they were worried that Ding Xiaomei’s mood would affect their plans, the army did not even tell Ding Xiaomei about Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi.
That was also a precaution.. Although Ding Xiaomei had taken the initiative to leave the child in the hospital, they still had to take precautions.
