CHAPTER 306: CHAPTER 306 FURIOUS QUESTIONING

"If you know what’s good for you, let us go quickly, or else you’ll end up like him—a soldier with no job, only able to go home and farm."

At this moment, Ming Lan spoke on her own, looking smug, completely missing the mockery in the police officer’s eyes.

Retire?

If Mu Qiancheng had really retired, would those things still be on his shoulder? Two bars and a star, a major rank.

He’s no fool. He clearly saw Mu Qiancheng’s military rank. So, this Ming Lan is simply a fool who can’t even understand this, no wonder she ended up in here.

"Are you done talking?" Mu Qiancheng looked at Ming Lan with ridicule and said, "Ming Family’s eldest Miss, sorry to disappoint you, I’m still in service. As for retiring, I guess you won’t be seeing that in your lifetime."

"You, what do you mean?" Ming Lan was shocked, looking at Mu Qiancheng. This Mu Qiancheng’s attitude is too strange; if he was really here to ask for her help, how dare he speak to her like this.

Even now, Ming Lan still couldn’t figure out the situation.

"Just what it means." Mu Qiancheng replied lightly, then stopped looking at Ming Lan, but turned his gaze to Jiang Mingzhu, and said with a half-smile, "Miss Jiang, you could have gotten out in a few days with some connections, but it’s a pity you have a good mother, so you should just stay here obediently for a while longer."

Jiang Mingzhu was no fool. She had heard clearly what Ming Lan had said earlier. Now with Mu Qiancheng’s words, she understood even more clearly, so she turned to look at Ming Lan, questioning, "What did you do?"

"Mingzhu, what’s wrong?" Jiang Mingzhu’s gaze was somewhat frightening. It was the first time Ming Lan had seen it. Though Jiang Mingzhu was her own daughter, seeing her with such a murderous look was still somewhat scary.

"I asked you what did you do?" Jiang Mingzhu shouted. She had been hoping to get out. Yesterday morning, when Ming Lan visited her, she had promised to get her out as soon as possible.

But now, not only did she not get her out, she ended up coming in herself. Originally, she was already dissatisfied with Ming Lan coming in.

She knew that with Ming Lan in, there were fewer people outside who could help her. Although there was still the Jiang Family, she understood the old master’s temper; if he found out the things she’d done, and knew they had another granddaughter, he probably wouldn’t care for her as much.

This is also why she was desperate to get rid of Jiang Xue. She feared Jiang Xue would take away what was originally hers, the family’s property, and the affection of everyone in the Jiang Family.

Having lived nearly twenty years, she was cherished by everyone in the Jiang Family. This love was supposed to be hers alone, how could she let Jiang Xue take it?

"I, I didn’t do anything." Ming Lan jumped in fright, replied stammering.

"Didn’t do anything?" Jiang Mingzhu clearly didn’t believe it, then turned to Mu Qiancheng and said, "Tell me, what did she do?"

Compared to her attitude towards Ming Lan, at this moment, Jiang Mingzhu’s tone and attitude towards Mu Qiancheng were worlds apart, causing the police officer beside them to sigh in amazement.

This level of acting and changing expressions, truly masterful.

However, Mu Qiancheng frowned and his face darkened when he saw Jiang Mingzhu suddenly casting amorous glances his way.

Jiang Mingzhu, seeing that Mu Qiancheng was ignoring her, remembered what Ming Lan had said earlier, and got angry. She thought Mu Qiancheng ignoring her was likely because of something Ming Lan did to him.
