Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2602: Chapter 2538: If You Don’t Wear It, You’re a Puppy

Cheng Cheng was startled.

On the other side of the shore, that means taking a boat to the opposite side of D State.

What does Chiang Xiao want with a house over there?

If she comes over, it would be to D State. Why look for a house on the opposite shore?

But Guan Tiezhu didn’t clarify why. Chiang Xiao just instructed him like that, and he didn’t understand the purpose either.

Moreover, Chiang Xiao also told him, if Cheng Cheng could quickly find the place, to go check out the house before he comes back, and then place an item in a corner of the house.

He couldn’t figure out what that meant.

Chiang Xiao’s instructions were also to see if Cheng Cheng was already familiar enough with the area to quickly find a suitable house for her to use as a station. If he could find one, before Guan Tiezhu goes back, he could put a talisman diagram for her. Then she could try to transfer directly from the last station to there, and getting to D State would be closer.

If not, it’s no big deal; she would just come herself next time.

However, maybe she was lucky, Cheng Cheng really had such a place.

”Did she say what she wants the house for? Is it for her own use?”

”She didn’t say, just mentioned that just in case, it might come in handy in the future.”

Cheng Cheng didn’t suspect anything.

Coming to this side of D State, if it gets to nightfall, the bridge closes and boats stop crossing, going back and forth won’t be easy.

It’s normal for Chiang Xiao to want a quiet spot across the shore.

”I do have such a place, just not sure if it fits her needs.” Cheng Cheng said as he untied the large package, wanting to see what’s inside first.

Upon opening, he found a big pack full of food.

Jerky, snacks, tea leaves.

”This girl, I’m not that much of a foodie, and she specifically had you bring these over, wanting you to hand them to me personally?” Cheng Cheng said with a wry smile.

But then he remembered another thing Chiang Xiao had told him.

She said she got him an amulet and insisted he must wear it?

The things Guan Tiezhu delivered with such seriousness, could it be referring to that peace charm?

Sure enough, he rummaged through and found a small box. Opening it revealed a bead strung with a black cord.

The bead wasn’t special, just polished to a smooth finish.

And it was the color of natural wood.

Though it looked simple and not flashy, he’d never seen anyone wear a wooden bead around their neck.

He truly didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Does he really have to wear this?

Seeing his expression, Guan Tiezhu said, ”Officer Cheng, Xiao Chiang said you definitely have to wear it.”

She even tasked Guan Tiezhu with this instruction...

Cheng Cheng felt a bit helpless, ”Alright, alright, you can go back and tell her I’ll wear it.” With that, he was about to put the bead back into the box.

Guan Tiezhu immediately said, ”Xiao Chiang said she has to see you put it on, and, there’s a note in the box.”

There’s a note?

Cheng Cheng checked the box again and indeed found a small note in a hidden compartment.

He opened it and saw only one line written.

If you don’t wear it, you’re a puppy.

Pfft.

Cheng Cheng burst out laughing.

His temple throbbed.

If you don’t wear it, you’re a puppy?

Why is she so insistent on making him wear this wooden bead? And didn’t she say it was a peace charm? Where’s the peace charm?

It’s clearly just a wooden bead.

”Officer Cheng, that place you mentioned, what kind of place is it? Is there a key? If there is, can you give it to me? I’ll take it back to Xiao Chiang.”
