Li Hanzhong hints at past events and Commander Cui's wife, prompting Jiang Xiao to seek out Jiang Yingqiong. Jiang Xiao learns that Madam Cui is in a secluded retreat due to heart issues and that visiting her is difficult. Jiang Yingqiong suggests Jiang Xiao visit Old Madam Wei, Wei Yixi's grandmother, who is also at the retreat and has interactions with Madam Cui, as a way to gain access.

Jiang Xiao exhaled.

"Why is Old Madam Wei staying in the sanatorium again?"

"It’s nothing serious, just that her body is weak, probably due to her age. She enjoys the tranquility there, and the air quality is genuinely good. Sometimes even I wish to stay there for a few days."

"If I want to visit Old Madam Wei, should I first look for Director Wei?"

"You can contact Director Wei, or I can arrange for someone to take you there. If you mention that you’re a friend of Wei Yixi, Old Madam Wei will definitely meet you since Wei Yixi is her most beloved grandson."

Jiang Xiao was momentarily silent.

She had never met Wei Yixi.

How could she claim to be Wei Yixi’s friend?

If only Ding Haijing was back, he always mentioned that he counted as Wei Yixi’s senior brother.

However, regardless of the situation, with the recent mission in Ke Ku Li, she couldn’t go to meet Madam Cui before decisions were made.

It takes forty minutes by car to the sanatorium from here.

So, Jiang Xiao wasn’t in a hurry to head to the sanatorium.

After leaving, she took the opportunity to visit the hospital, sending the items collected from a few people for analysis.

The results weren’t going to come quickly, so Jiang Xiao made trips to Youqingwei and then the handicraft workshop.

There, she saw Xie Landi hard at work.

Like everyone else, Xie Landi had her hair covered, wore a mask and gloves, and was very focused on her tasks. She didn’t notice Jiang Xiao, nor did Jiang Xiao disturb her or call her out for a chat.

She felt that Xie Landi’s current state was quite good.

Xie Landi’s vivid presence was a testament to another change in her life.

Because in her previous life, Xie Landi had already committed suicide by jumping off a building.

Walking out of the workshop, looking at the vast blue sky, Jiang Xiao took a deep breath.

Yes, this life is already vastly different.

No matter how many obstacles lie ahead, she would not be afraid or defeated.

She would shatter each difficulty and stride forward confidently.

This life, she would live brilliantly.

And, Meng Xi would definitely be by her side!

"By the way, Old Guan, our people have been watching Deng Qingjiang. Before heading back, call them over; I have something to ask them."

"Okay."

Shortly after returning, the people watching Deng Qingjiang arrived.

Jiang Xiao asked about Deng Qingjiang’s recent condition, and the person responded with a slightly odd expression, "He’s been in utter chaos."

Jiang Xiao was taken aback.

Utter chaos?

"Is Chen Kaijin still causing trouble?"

"It’s not just that woman; there are two others involved."

"Two others?"

"Yes, one is Ye Wanqing. Didn’t Miss Jiang also ask us to watch her back then? She’s been confronting Deng Qingjiang, demanding a divorce, but Deng Qingjiang’s wife is adamant about not wanting to divorce and even sold off their furniture estate."

Jiang Xiao thought of their entanglement and couldn’t help but crack a smile.

Yeah, let them fight and get entangled.

They were meant to be in such a mess anyway, weren’t they?

"When the furniture estate was sold, we thought Deng Qingjiang would end up penniless and would compromise with his wife since she holds all the money. But we didn’t expect Deng Qingjiang to have another woman outside."

"Another woman? What kind of woman?"
