Chapter 935: Chapter 936: Genuinely Filial

"That’s not the case at all. Let me tell you, Brother Soldier knows me too; we pretty much grew up together, understand? Brother Soldier enlisted, and I couldn’t because of my flat feet, not qualifying me. Otherwise, I also have a heart eager to serve the country," he said.

Chiang Xiao felt a stir in her heart.

She had been contemplating how there was no one to keep an eye on those out-of-towners, and if Ji Chunlai was trustworthy, and since he was accustomed to hustling about and had seen many people, if he really was smart and brave with strategies, letting him watch those people would be a good choice.

However, she still needed to observe him.

On their way, the rain kept pouring harder and harder.

Chiang Xiao’s heart also became progressively heavier.

With such heavy rain, how could the road be cleared?

She knew that a landslide was extremely dangerous, and it was impossible to clear the road under such conditions. Even if they did manage to clear it, driving into the area at this time would still be fraught with danger.

The situation in Jiguan Village must be even worse, right?

Thinking of Meng Xinian, Zhao Xin, and the others still trapped inside, Chiang Xiao couldn’t keep her heart at ease.

"But, miss, what exactly are you planning to do in Guan Town? Do you have relatives there?"

"Yes."

"No wonder. With this kind of weather, are you worried about elders? That’s real devotion."

Elders...

Devotion...

Chiang Xiao was left speechless.

At first, it was just her brother, but now it became an elder, and she was being praised for her filial piety. If Tyrant Meng heard this, who knows if he would go mad.

Approaching Guan Town, the rain grew heavier and they had already been driving for seven or eight hours.

The torrential downpour seemed to fall straight from the sky; raindrops were no longer distinguishable.

It was night, and in such heavy rain, the car lights could hardly be effective.

"Miss, we’re about to reach Guan Town. With this kind of rain, I won’t be able to make the return trip tonight. Do you have a place to stay? If not, is there somewhere I can park? I can sleep in my car if I have to. If that’s not an option, do you know of any hostels in the town?" Ji Chunlai asked.

Chiang Xiao was silent for a few seconds, "I’m also here for the first time, and I need to look for a hostel myself."

Ji Chunlai: "..."

"What happened to the elder?"

However, just as their car entered the town, a car horn sounded from behind them.

Glancing in the mirror, Ji Chunlai exclaimed: "Wow, are those government vehicles? A Jeep and public-use trucks!"

Chiang Xiao immediately looked back.

Her eyesight was much better than Ji Chunlai’s, and she recognized the front vehicle as one she had ridden before. Once, when she went to Xinying District, Meng Xinian had taken her back to the city in this exact vehicle. She still remembered its license plate.

"Make way, make way!" she promptly tapped Ji Chunlai’s seat.

The horn from behind was meant to signal them to clear the way.

Ji Chunlai immediately pulled over, and three vehicles passed by: a Jeep and two trucks, all covered tightly with green tarpaulins.

As the three vehicles drove past, Chiang Xiao immediately said, "Follow them!"

Ji Chunlai was startled.

"You can’t be serious, miss. Following official vehicles?"

What was she planning?

What was she planning?

"Just follow them when I tell you to!"

Chiang Xiao tapped his seat again.

Ji Chunlai immediately stepped on the gas and followed.

As they did, Xiao Zhang, who was driving, noticed them.

"Director Ye, that car has started following us."
