Chapter 127 Meng Zhengcheng Successfully Delivers the News

So when Meng Zhengcheng arrived at work this morning, his colleague didn't even bother to go home and catch up on sleep. He immediately pulled Meng Zhengcheng aside and gossiped about it, asking him if he knew who that person was.

He was also cautious.

Even though he knew that Qiaojia Village had adopted a little girl who was only three or four years old, and that Qiao Changdong had adopted Qiao Qiao, he didn't say a word to the investigators about the relationship between Meng Zhengcheng and the people they were investigating.

After all, the other party's origins and intentions were unclear, and he had a good relationship with Meng Zhengcheng, so naturally he wouldn't do something so foolish.

Meng Zhengcheng was initially completely confused and listened in a daze.

But he soon remembered what happened in Qiaojia Village on New Year's Day.

That day, Qiaojia Village brought back fourteen wild boars from the back mountain, which alarmed the police station, and he went over there as well.

Along with two other colleagues, we stayed in Qiaojia Village for a pig-slaughtering feast.

He also knew about the bubble on Qiao Qiao's head that indicated her rebirth.

On the one hand, he felt this was too outrageous.

On the other hand, they firmly believed it.

Everyone in the Qiao family knew that someone from Kyoto would definitely come looking for them.

But I didn't expect it to happen so quickly!

and--

From Kyoto.

Is it Shen Qingrong or Shen Qingyan?

According to his niece's tip, Shen Qingrong is an utterly wicked villain! What if he comes?!

The Qiao family is currently powerless to confront Shen Qingrong.

Meng Zhengcheng called Qiao Changdong, hoping that he would not bring Qiao Qiao into the public eye for the time being, but instead meet with the other party first to get a feel for the situation before showing up.

Unexpectedly, when the call was made, the person turned out to be missing.

Fortunately.

There is only one national highway from Baoyi City back to Hongfeng Town.

Without a second thought, Meng Zhengcheng took an unprecedented day off and drove all the way to the national highway to block Qiao Changdong's truck.

Qiao Changdong, who was driving his truck back at that moment, had no idea how worried his brother-in-law was about him.

Looking in the rearview mirror, he saw his precious daughter clinging to Pei Yiyang, even peeling the shells off a roasted egg for him, and then stuffing half of it into his mouth.

He didn't think of his elderly father, who was driving, at all.

Unlike before, he wasn't feeling wronged because Fu Yu ate all the eggs and left none for him; he didn't feel like he was completely jealous.

He asked quietly, "Sweetie, aren't you going to leave some of this egg for Daddy?"

Qiao Qiao looked up in surprise.

"But Dad, there's only one egg." Sharing one egg among three people is too stingy.

Qiao Changdong felt even more aggrieved.

Isn't it precisely because there's only one that it's so precious?

Seeing her father's aggrieved expression, Qiao Qiao thought for a moment, then took a little bit of the egg from her own half-eaten mouth and leaned over to feed it to her father. Only then did a small smile appear on her father's face.

"..." Xiang Dongyan witnessed the whole thing.

It's just an egg, surely it shouldn't be that serious?

A woman with only two sons doesn't understand men!

Because of the poor road conditions, what used to be a seven or eight-hour journey now takes more than ten hours to drive back.

As usual, Qiao Changdong stopped once at a restaurant by the national highway, had lunch, and then continued on his way.

Around three or four in the afternoon, when he was about a third of the way there, he met Meng Zhengcheng, who was waiting for him.

Qiao Changdong looked at Meng Zhengcheng, who was standing by the roadside shivering from the cold, and leaned out of the car to ask in surprise, "Brother-in-law, didn't we call you? The matter is resolved, there's no need to come and pick us up."

Meng Zhengcheng tiptoed and glanced at the driver's seat. He only saw Xiang Dongyan, who was already fast asleep in the car, and a boy who was smiling and nodding to him. He didn't see Qiao Qiao at all.

He frowned and asked, "Where's my darling?"

“I’ll sleep in the back,” Qiao Changdong replied.

There's a space about one meter wide and two meters long behind his seat, which he usually uses to sleep when he's on long-distance trips.

Qiao Qiao had been on a rocking horse the whole way and had long since climbed over and fallen into a deep sleep.

Meng Zhengcheng nodded, but his brows remained furrowed. At this moment, Xiang Dongyan also woke up and greeted the people.

I was also curious why he came to pick me up, since he had clearly said on the phone that the matter was resolved.

Meng Zhengcheng could only point to a restaurant a hundred meters away by the roadside, lower his voice and explain, "Something happened at home, Dongzi, come down for a moment, let's talk over there."

Meng Zhengcheng's original intention was to keep Qiao Qiao in the dark about the arrival of people from Kyoto, and to discuss with Qiao Changdong what to do first.

However, Meng Zhengcheng had no idea how sharp Qiao Qiao's hearing was now.

She wasn't a deep sleeper to begin with.

Upon hearing Meng Zhengcheng's words that something had happened at home, he almost sat up abruptly, leaned over and anxiously asked, "Uncle, what happened at home?"

no way.

It seemed there was no way to hide it anymore, so Meng Zhengcheng had no choice but to climb into the passenger seat.

He recounted from beginning to end what his colleague had told him the previous night, and at the end, he glanced at the young girl who had completely lost her composure after hearing it.

“I didn’t see anyone. I don’t know if it was Shen Qingrong or Shen Qingyan who came, but whoever it is... they are not people our family can fight against right now.”

"It's Shen Qingyan."

Xiang Dongyan, who had been listening in silence, suddenly spoke up.

To her surprise, Shen Qingyan, whom she met last night, was actually looking for Qiao Qiao.

The girl she liked actually had such an extraordinary background.
