Jiang Xiao was frustrated that Ah Hong and Deng Qingjiang had left the capital without a trace. The next morning, Ding Haijing returned unexpectedly and chided Jiang Xiao for her reckless actions during a recent grave-digging incident. He insisted she let them handle dangerous tasks in the future, which felt eerily familiar to Jiang Xiao. Her thoughts were interrupted by a call from Zhu Shun, who had news from Pingzhou regarding Lu Shuangshuang and hinted that Jiang Xiao's own actions had reached them.

Initially, he was thinking about investigating Lu Shuangshuang to quickly relay any information to Jiang Xiao.

But before he could find anything, news came from D State.

Lu Shuangshuang is two months pregnant, and the child is suspected to be from Lu Junyou, a distant nephew of Old Master Lu.

And twenty years ago, Sixth Young Master Jiang had already broken off his engagement with Lu Shuangshuang; both parties had returned their betrothal tokens, yet Lu Shuangshuang managed to create a fake token, deceiving the Jiang Family for twenty years!

Such news, once it reached Pingzhou, even the residents were amazed, and they sympathized with Sixth Young Master Jiang and the Jiang Family.

Although the Lu Family is from Pingzhou, clearly, they have gone too far in their deception; people feel a sense of shame.

Shame shared by fellow Pingzhou residents.

When the news reached Zhu Shun, his first reaction was to burst into laughter.

Serves them right.

Back then, he already felt that Lu Shuangshuang was not a good person.

Jiang Xiao felt a bit apologetic when she heard him say this, "Sorry, Brother Shun, I didn’t tell you beforehand."

"What’s there to be sorry about?" Zhu Shun was indifferent, "But, let me tell you something, I have an opportunity to meet Boss Du tomorrow night. Boss Du knows I’m now teaching his men martial arts, and said he found two people for a sparring match tomorrow night."

He’s going to meet Boss Du?

Jiang Xiao felt a bit worried upon hearing this.

"Brother Shun, we don’t know what kind of person Boss Du is; you need to be careful," she said earnestly, "Prioritize your safety, don’t worry about anything else for now."

Zhu Shun chuckled, saying, "I say, sister-in-law, I’m not that foolish, right? Don’t worry, I just want to ask first, what is the thing you most want to know."

Jiang Xiao thought for a moment and said, "I want to know if Boss Du has someone supporting him, if he’s familiar with the Jiang Family, and which members he’s in contact with, if possible."

The deputy steward in the kitchen should have already been caught, as she knows, there’s still a woman in the Jiang Family colluding with the Lu Family.

If she also has connections with Boss Du and is indeed a female, then it should be about right.

"Okay, wait for my news."

Zhu Shun hung up the phone.

Ding Haijing leaned against the door looking at her.

This girl is certainly busy.

Managing affairs here and there.

Does she think she has three heads and six arms?

Absolutely.

"I say, Xiao Chiang, have you not realized you’re handling too much?" he asked.

Jiang Xiao gave him a glance, her eyes turned, "No, and in fact, I have another thing to handle, which requires you."

Woah.

Requires him?
