Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 3081: Chapter 3017: You’re Afraid of Cats?

If they had also given up on retrieving Mei Chunhong and Deng Qingjiang due to the danger, how would they have made such progress?

Since they took her money and received this salary, they should do their jobs well.

Honestly, any job outside right now doesn’t pay as well as theirs.

On the way back, Guan Tiezhu once sighed to him, saying Jiang Xiao paid them so much money, no matter what, they must bring back the people Jiang Xiao needs, or else they can’t even justify their salary.

Moreover, their feelings for her are already more than just a salary.

Especially him.

He always feels an inexplicable sense of guilt toward Jiang Xiao.

No matter how much Ding Haijing thinks about it, he can’t figure out where this feeling of guilt comes from.

But he just always feels indebted to Jiang Xiao, always thinking that no matter what he does, he can’t make up for it.

He has never told anyone about this feeling.

Nor has he told Jiang Xiao.

”But do I really have to send someone to Pingzhou?”

Jiang Xiao was taken aback for a moment.

She already feels Pingzhou is dangerous and has told Zhu Shun to be cautious and not investigate. Should she really send someone there again?

Who should she send?

She glanced at the three men in front of her.

Ding Haijing, forget it, someone like him stands out too much in the crowd; if he goes to Pingzhou, he’ll likely be targeted immediately.

Guan Tiezhu and Luo Yongsheng, both always beside her, have appeared with her multiple times. What if someone has seen them?

Their presence is too prominent; they can’t be sent there.

Ding Haijing said, ”Si Huzi, you still remember this person, right?”

”I remember. But he’s not skilled in martial arts, is he?”

”Do you think every task requires martial arts skills?” Ding Haijing said irritably, ”Last time we spent a few days with him, we found this person quite clever, adaptable, even if caught, he knows what to say and what not to say, able to protect himself, and hasn’t suffered much under the adversary’s hand. So, I think he’s very suitable to be sent there, not to do much, just to gauge the situation in Pingzhou and help Zhu Shun when necessary.”

Guan Tiezhu nodded to show that Ding Haijing’s words made sense.

Jiang Xiao pursed her lips.

She is not someone indecisive; after considering it for a while, she asked, ”Can Si Huzi be trusted?”

She has only met Si Huzi two or three times.

Ding Haijing nodded, ”He can be trusted.”

”Then you go discuss it with him, but one thing, no matter what, you must explain the risks clearly to him, let him choose whether to go or not, and also, pay him extra.”

”Alright, alright, we all know Miss Jiang has money to spend.” Ding Haijing chuckled, ”I’ll talk to him. Aren’t you supposed to call Zhu Shun? You should go do that.”

Jiang Xiao turned to walk toward the living room, feeling a bit odd after a few steps, as if something wasn’t right.

Sheesh, how did she end up following Ding Haijing’s commands so closely?

Suddenly, she got annoyed and shouted, ”Snow Ball, Snow Ball, you haven’t properly greeted Old Ding yet, come out and say hello to him!”

”Meow!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Snow Ball suddenly appeared from nowhere, landed silently, and jumped into Ding Haijing’s arms, with his soft tongue reaching for Ding Haijing’s face.

”Get away!”

Ding Haijing’s face changed color, his body went stiff, and he didn’t dare move, only shouting at Snow Ball, tilting his head back and reaching out to push Snow Ball away, yet seemingly hesitant to touch him.
