Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2984: Chapter 2920: The Enemy of My Enemy

Of course, Meng Xinian was very displeased when he heard this description. Because in the eyes of those people, Jiang Xiao was naturally also a prey.

”Dark Star is specifically aimed at these Hunters.”

”So, the enemy of our enemy is our friend. Does that mean Dark Star is on the same side as us?” Jiang Shiheng asked.

Meng Xinian actually thought the same.

But Jiang Xiao shook her head.

When she shook her head, the expressions of the two men changed instantly.

If even Dark Star is an enemy, then their level of danger is bound to increase.

”The people of Dark Star...” Jiang Xiao furrowed her brow, pondered for a moment, and said, ”How should I put it, there might not be such a thing as friends in their eyes.”

She trusted Ding Haijing, and since Ding Haijing couldn’t stay there, that explained everything.

Otherwise, Ding Haijing wouldn’t have such a deeply guarded attitude when bringing up Dark Star now.

”They also want to recruit individuals with special abilities to become members of Dark Star,” Jiang Xiao added.

These two men were extremely intelligent, and upon hearing her words, they understood immediately.

That is to say, joining Dark Star might mean being forced in, and it would be difficult to leave once inside.

Indeed, that is the case.

Otherwise, back then, why did Hu Xiangyong, no, Jiang Shengyue and Ding Haijing escape from it?

It’s simply a different form of hunting.

Although compared to the people from the institute, they hunt but do not kill, nurturing them to become their own.

However, for those who long for freedom, how could they accept such work?

Moreover, once joining Dark Star, as Ding Haixing had said, it’s as if marking an end to their worldly life. They could not have friends or family.

This was absolutely impossible for Jiang Xiao to achieve.

After hearing her words, both men fell into silence.

Jiang Xiao looked at one, then the other, breaking the silence.

”Dad, did you ask great-grandfather about it? The name Jiang Shengyue.”

Jiang Shiheng came back to his senses and said, ”I asked, but your great-grandfather said he hadn’t heard of this name either. Little, I also think there’s a good chance that this person is a Jiang Family member, perhaps a collateral branch. So, I’ve already asked Yue Yang to find a way to investigate all the collateral branches of the Jiang Family. It will take some time, but maybe we’ll find something.”

”Hmm, Dad, that’s what I thought too. I also always believe that this person is very likely to be from the Jiang Family.” Jiang Xiao grasped his hand and said, ”So Dad, you are like living in a den of wolves in the Jiang Family, how can I not worry?”

Jiang Shiheng couldn’t help but smile.

He gently scraped her nose with his forefinger, ”Little girl, don’t sound so mature.”

Uh...

Jiang Xiao’s old face blushed.

So, if she tells them that with her past life and these five years after rebirth, she should actually be thirty-five, would it scare them witless?

What if, after saying it, they’d feel awkward seeing her as a little girl anymore?

”Dad, I’m genuinely worried.”

”Don’t worry anymore, I now have Yue Yang and the others helping, right? Besides, I will be very careful, you have to believe, Dad is not that naïve young nobleman of fifteen or sixteen anymore.”

He now had precious things to protect, cutting through thorns and advancing invincibly.

No one could make him repeat his old paths again.

”Needlessly worrying,” Meng Xinian said.

In his view, Jiang Shiheng really wasn’t that easily harmed now.

If he were still so easily harmed, he wouldn’t escape wherever he went, Jiang Family or not.
