What Xiao Qian talked with Zheng Xu about was Zheng Xu’s excessive unruliness; what Jia Xiufang said to Xiao Qian, however, was rooted in the old notion that a girl should be faithful to one man for life – two completely opposing viewpoints.

Xiao Qian sat at the table, doodling and writing with a pen.

She bought a thick notebook in which she wrote her medical case and thoughts on life in a way that only she could understand.

Lately, all the topics she dealt with seemed to be centered around this area, and she planned to write seriously about her feelings on this matter.

Xiao Qian had written halfway when she heard Jia Xiufang shouting from outside before she could pen her own thoughts.

“Qian’er, answer the phone! I can’t go over while I’m washing my feet!”

Xiao Qian put down her pen, and went outside to answer the phone.

“May I speak to Chen Xiaoqian? I have something to tell you…”

Xiao Qian hung up the phone, her brows furrowed.

By sheer coincidence, there was another related case.

“Qjan’er, what happened?”

“It’s another business related to this… but there’s no pay.

“Hmm? What are you talking about?”

“The call that just came in, they said a girl needs my help. I have asked Xiao

Qiang to come pick me up.”

“Why not go tomorrow, it’s already so late? I won’t let my daughter work for nothing. Why work so hard in the middle of the night!”

Jia Xiufang muttered to herself, a little vain and somewhat reluctant to see her daughter so frantic.

“It will be too late by tomorrow, I must go now.”

Someone called from above saying that the girl, Jingjing, who was kidnapped with Xiao Qian was acting strangely. Jingjing’s fiance had gone over to kidnap a child and her family was hiding it from her. But it seemed she somehow knew, and when she woke up, she babbled nonsense and wanted to see the girls who were sold with her, specifically seeking a girl named Boss Qian.

To prevent a tragedy like the one earlier in the day from happening again, and in light of Xiao Qian’s impressive performance during the day, the Messenger of Justice contacted Xiao Qian, hoping to seek her opinion and help.

While Xiao Qian was making the call, Ming Lang was grimacing in pain as his mother was dressing his wounds.

Mother Yu was complaining too.

“Tell me, how are you going to get by if you keep going on like this every day? What will you do if your bones grow crooked!”

“What can I do? Blame it on all these incidents happening at once.” Ming Lang bore the pain when he was busy, but once he finished dealing with everything, his whole body hurt. As soon as Mother Yu touched him, he cried out in agony.

“Mom, you’re going about it all wrong. I wouldn’t pay you a cent for this. Did you buy your chief physician’s title? Ouch, it hurts!”

“You’ll have to bear it no matter how much it hurts. Look, there’s swelling all over!”

No wonder it’s so painful, Ming Lang had been working non-stop for several days.

“Mom, can you get me some painkillers? I can’t sleep because of the pain.” “Now you feel the pain, huh? You were so tough when you were showing off your heroism and acting all wolf-like. Aren’t you supposed to be an actor?

Aren’t you a hero? In front of Xiao Qian, you were quite the big shot. Just wait, I’ll get your medicine!”

Having said enough, Mother Yu got up to fetch the painkillers. They were all homemade Chinese herb painkillers. The effect was a bit slow, but they were more long-lasting. She was afraid that Ming Lang would get addicted to Western medicine.

Before she could bring them over, Ming Lang’s phone rang.

“Xiao Qiang, are you asleep yet?”

“No.”

“Did you apply medicine? Does the wound hurt?”

“Not at all, it’s more like tickling.”

Mother Yu snorted at this. Pout as much as you like, just keep on pouting!

“Can you find a car to help me? The girl who was kidnapped with me, she’s not right in the head at the moment. They want me to come and see her, she’s asking for me.”

Ming Lang immediately sat up, his face serious.

“What on earth is she trying to do? Her fiance staged a kidnapping during the day, and now she wants to see you at night? Does this family ever stop?

“You don’t need to get anxious and you shouldn’t think so negatively about people. I’ll go have a look, just help me find a car.”

“Stay home and don’t move, I’ll pick you up personally.”

Ming Lang hung up and headed straight out, with Mother Yu chasing after him with the medicine.

“Take the medicine before you leave!”

“No need, it doesn’t hurt anymore.” Ming Lang grabbed his clothes and left. He did not need painkillers, as his Xiao Mei was his most potent painkiller.

“This rascal, just like his father! Let him wait, I won’t care one bit even if he’s in excruciating pain when he returns!” Mother Yu muttered to herself as she watched Ming Lang’s receding figure, leaving the medicine on the table.

Ming Lang came over to pick up Xiao Qian and they headed off to the pre-arranged destination by cab.

In consideration of the day’s events, the higher-ups did not schedule the meeting to be held at the girl’s house, but rather had the girl’s family come out to an independent location for a meeting with Xiao Qian.

The girl’s parents were both intellectuals, supposedly university professors. They seemed very educated and understanding and did not vent their daughter’s misfortune on Xiao Qian.

They waited early outside the hotel. Upon seeing Xiao Qian, Jingjing’s mother bowed deeply to her. She looked haggard. Her daughter’s situation had pushed her and her husband to the brink of collapse, but they held on for their daughter.

The girl’s mother kept apologizing to Xiao Qian for the day’s events. Xiao Qian waved her hand, indicating that it was no problem.

The sins of the Phoenix Man had nothing to do with these pitiful people.

“What is Jingjing’s condition like now?”

“After she woke up, she has been hiding in the comer, constantly shouting that there are snakes chasing her. We did not dare to tell her that the man has been captured. She said she wanted to see you.”

Jingjing’s mother clearly detested that evil man. After her daughter came back, he treated her so heartlessly. How Jingjing wished for a comforting hug from him, yet he found her repulsive. Despite the fact that Jingjing’s parents had already bought a bridal room that was about to be named after him.

“Snake?” Xiao Qian caught on to the key word.

“Yes, she keeps shouting that there’s a giant snake. Besides shouting about snakes, she calls for Boss Qian. I’m sorry for bothering you so late, but I think Jingjing’s condition…”

Jingjing’s mother didn’t say it, but she felt that her daughter seemed to be going mad.

Jingjing’s mother had also seen Xiao Qian confront the bad guy during the day. She felt that this girl was indeed very professional, no wonder they had chosen her to be an undercover agent-everyone now thought Xiao Qian was an undercover agent.

She hoped that Xiao Qian could assist her poor daughter.

“Aunt, you don’t have to be so polite. Actually, I originally intended to have my classmate provide her therapy. I was mainly afraid that she would reject me, but in her current state, if others can’t fix it, I have to do it myself.”

Ming Lang asked Xiao Qian, “Qian Bao, why does she keep mentioning snakes? And why do you say that this matter requires your personal attention?” “Because she’s probably on the verge of break down. Her subconscious might remember me protecting Shi Yu, and so in her subconscious world, I am the sole savior. She doesn’t know my name and only remembers Shi Yu referring to me as Boss Qian. Therefore, she’s always trying to find me. If I also give up on her, this girl…”

She really might go insane.
