Chapter 1208: Chapter 1209: Between Husband and Wife
"If it’s true that Deng Qingjiang had always been in Province X, that could explain why he knew those people; they were from the same place.
But in the previous life, when Deng Qingjiang took her out, it didn’t seem like they were headed to Province X.
To this day, Chiang Xiao still didn’t know where that place was.
Back then, she trusted Deng Qingjiang quite a bit, just following him, taking a car, then a train, and another car.
There were journeys at night too; she fell asleep in the car. Vaguely, she remembered Deng Qingjiang calling her off the vehicle to transfer to another, and that was the first time she’d ever left her impoverished village. She didn’t recognize anything, didn’t understand anything, so she really had no idea where they were.
Later, much later, Deng Qingjiang took her to Capital City.
They all moved to Capital City.
Deng Qingjiang seemed to always avoid talking about where they had lived before.
Perhaps it really was Province X?
And then, was it because of the tomb raiding incident that they fell out with the mastermind behind the scenes, leading to their family relocating?
She mulled over these thoughts and said to Chen Kaijin, "We caught a few tomb raiders here recently; they also came from Province X."
As she spoke, she carefully watched Chen Kaijin’s expression.
Chen Kaijin looked surprised for a moment, "Really? Also from Province X? Do you know from where in Province X? But then again, Province X is so big, they may not necessarily be from our area."
Her surprise and amazement didn’t seem feigned.
Even Chen Sue seemed a bit taken aback.
Could it be that they didn’t know those people?
Was Chen Kaijin unaware of the business between Deng Qingjiang and those men?
So her return this time wasn’t because of the ancient tomb?
"I don’t know exactly where they’re from. I didn’t ask in detail," she said calmly.
By this time, Chiang Songhai had already signaled Xu Linjiang to speak privately on the side.
Chiang Xiao knew he wanted to ask about Chiang Baohe’s situation, and she didn’t go over to listen. Whatever needed to be said, Xu Linjiang had already told her on their way here.
Anyway, she felt Chiang Baohe was truly doomed this time.
She wouldn’t lift a finger to help, for sure.
So, she wouldn’t concern herself too much with Chiang Baohe’s affairs.
Her attention was now on the Chen sisters.
She had never met Chen Sue in her previous life, nor heard anything about her.
As for the Chen Family, she hadn’t really heard about any of them afterwards, except for Chen Liting who also moved to Capital City. So apart from Chen Kaijin and Chen Liting, she didn’t have much of an impression or thoughts about the other members of the Chen family.
"Chiang Xiao, I hear you’re doing well in your studies? Your aunt has two kids who just started elementary school and their grades aren’t good. How about, during this summer break, you come over to Province X to visit us? You’d stay at our own home, and you could help your cousins with their reading when you’re free, how’s that?"
Eh?
Chiang Xiao was somewhat surprised.
In her previous life, she had never heard about Deng Qingjiang having sons or daughters.
"No thanks, I think G Province is quite nice; I don’t want to go to Province X." She declined immediately, then added with a blink, "Also, didn’t Deng Qingjiang change his surname? I thought that was meant to completely cut ties with my grandparents."
Nobody expected her to bring up this matter so directly.
And to use a term like ’cutting ties’ too.
Chen Kaijin couldn’t help but feel a bit embarrassed and flustered.
Chen Sue quickly said, "Oh no, it’s not like that. Your uncle did that merely as a comfort to his biological parents. A surname doesn’t mean much; it’s where the heart and affections lie that truly counts as kinship."
