Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 3069: Chapter 3005: Time for Interrogation

”Old Guan, wake up.” Jiang Xiao saw Ding Haijing eat half a bowl in an instant and immediately nudged Guan Tiezhu: ”If you don’t get up now, Old Ding is going to finish the whole pot.”

Ding Haijing glanced at her, said nothing, and continued to bury his head in the noodles.

When did her cooking get this good?

Or was he just that desperately hungry?

Guan Tiezhu also woke up, caught the aroma, and immediately rushed to the table. ”Smells so good.”

Watching them eat as if racing against time, Jiang Xiao couldn’t help asking, ”How long has it been since you guys last ate?”

”Two days. Just had water.”

Ding Haijing quickly finished that big bowl of noodles, and Jiang Xiao reached out to take the bowl, ”Want more?”

”Yes.”

Jiang Xiao went to serve him another big bowl.

They each ate two big bowls of noodle soup, and after eating, they finally felt like they had come back to life.

”How long have those two outside not eaten?”

”Probably about three days.” Ding Haijing said indifferently.

Who cares how many days they haven’t eaten?

As long as they’re not dead, it’s fine.

Jiang Xiao thought the same, as long as they’re not dead, it’s fine.

”Many people are after these two?” Jiang Xiao asked.

”It’s not these two, it’s Mei Chunhong.” Ding Haijing said, ”Mei Chunhong knows a lot of key figures over there, and she probably has several ledgers, so many people are after her.”

Some want to kill her, some want to save her, and there are military and police both trying to capture her.

”And just the two of you could snatch them back?”

”Of course, we had help.” Ding Haijing sat up straight and said to Jiang Xiao, ”Let me tell you, we won’t talk about Deng Qingjiang, but Mei Chunhong must be handed over to the police eventually, otherwise it would be hard to explain to the people who helped us.”

So, he meant to tell Jiang Xiao that, no matter what, this woman’s life had to be preserved.

Jiang Xiao nodded to show she understood.

She had no interest in Mei Chunhong’s life anyway.

All she wanted was to find out where Shi Xiaoching was and everything Chunhong knew.

”Got it, you guys go rest first.”

”Are you sure you want us to leave? You alone here with those two, is that okay?” Ding Haijing frowned, ”We’ll stay here then, sleep in the living room, and you just call us if anything happens; if nothing happens, we’ll sleep like the dead tonight, we won’t bother you.”

Jiang Xiao thought about it and agreed.

If she tried to make them leave, Ding Haijing wouldn’t agree.

”Alright then.”

She had already decided to move Mei Chunhong and Deng Qingjiang next door, it’s not like they’d hear anything from here.

Ding Haijing saw she didn’t insist further and breathed a sigh of relief.

He was just worried if she insisted on making them leave, he wouldn’t be able to rest easy tonight.

”You guys sleep first, clean up tomorrow.”

Jiang Xiao saw they were genuinely exhausted and left.

Not long after she left, the sound of snoring resumed inside the room.

She stood outside for a moment, thinking that Ding Haijing and Guan Tiezhu were really fast asleep, then walked towards Mei Chunhong and Deng Qingjiang.

Mei Chunhong had already fallen asleep against the wall.

Hungry and tired, with nothing to eat or drink, she could only sleep.

Jiang Xiao grabbed each of them by the hand, dragged them next door.

There was a utility room here, filled with clutter that hadn’t been cleared out yet; Jiang Xiao tossed them into the utility room, looking around, this was what Ding Haijing meant by a woodshed, right?
