Chapter 1329: Chapter 1330: Just in Time

"I’m telling you, there are other young men who are spirited and skilled, not just Meng Xinian. We’re not in a hurry, let’s choose carefully and pick someone really strong in all aspects!"

Chen Baoshen spoke excitedly, unaware that Chiang Xiao had coughed quietly.

Then, a calm and steady voice arose.

"It’s not so easy to find someone as skilled as Meng Xinian."

"Who says?" Chen Baoshen retorted, lifting his head only to get startled, "It’s Wei Lengmian!"

Director Wei was straightforwardly nicknamed ’Lengmian’ (Cold Face).

Chiang Xiao saw his expression, still the same as last night, completely unfluctuating, very indifferent.

She hadn’t expected him to arrive so quickly, and alone at that.

"Old Chen, Comrade Xiao Chiang."

Director Wei’s greeting was also expressionless.

"What are you here for?" asked Chen Baoshen.

"Did Old Chen come to the Meng Family to treat Meng Chaojun?" Director Wei countered.

Chen Baoshen did not answer; Chiang Xiao spoke up first, "No, Grandpa Chen came to check on Duan Qingqing."

"Oh? Then may I ask what diagnosis Old Chen has made?" Director Wei asked.

"A happy pulse, Madam Meng has been pregnant for a couple of months." Before answering, Chen Baoshen had looked at Chiang Xiao, questioning with his eyes if it was okay to reveal this, and Chiang Xiao slightly nodded.

He listened to Xiao Chiang, since Xiao Chiang indicated it was okay to speak, he naturally did.

"Oh?"

Chiang Xiao saw that Director Wei was not surprised, realizing he must have interrogated this from Xu Yiqiu. That meant Duan Qingqing’s conversation with Xu Yiqiu was related to her pregnancy.

How that woman thought, she couldn’t comprehend.

It seemed Director Wei was quite capable, and fast too, having figured everything out and nabbed the suspects within two days.

"What brings Director Wei here? As soon as you stepped into the courtyard, I suppose people started trembling, huh?" Chen Baoshen looked at Director Wei.

"If one does nothing to harm the country, there is nothing to tremble about."

Thus, Director Wei still did not reveal his actual purpose.

Chiang Xiao observed from the side, again feeling that Director Wei was utterly impermeable.

Chen Baoshen seemed to know his way, shook his head, and said, "Then I’ll be leaving, until next time."

"Take care, Old Chen."

Director Wei glanced at Chiang Xiao, then turned and walked into the Meng Family.

At that moment, Meng Chaojun was slumped on the sofa, looking suddenly ten years older.

If possible, he truly did not want to have to entertain Director Wei at this time, nor did he want to have his disgrace brutally exposed in front of others soon.

But, he had no choice.

The disarray in the living room remained uncleared, and Old Meng was also sitting by, his face pale.

Duan Qingqing, like a delicate flower battered by a storm, looked utterly devastated, shivering as she sat on the ground.

She did not dare to stand up, her only option was to see if Meng Chaojun might still harbor a shred of pity for her.

In the family, the most composed and calm was Meng Xinian.

Upon seeing Director Wei enter alone, his eyes flickered subtly. It seemed he owed Director Wei a favor.

Director Wei glanced around, "Officer Meng, am I intruding at a bad time?"

"Quite the contrary."

Meng Xinian slightly tugged at the corner of his mouth, revealing a meaningful smile.

If not for this incident, Duan Qingqing would still be unaware of what to do with the child in her belly.
