Chapter 1256: All Taken Away

The police saw so many people breaking into a residence at night, their expressions turned grim. They arrested Master Niu and all the people he brought, and took Jiang Xue and those secretly protecting her for questioning and records.

By the time it was all done and they returned, it was almost two o’clock.

Due to the arrival of the police, everyone in the house was awakened and couldn’t sleep anymore, waiting for Jiang Xue to come back.

It wasn’t until Jiang Xue returned that they knew what had happened.

After listening to Jiang Xue recounting the events, Father Jiang and Mu Siwu looked at Jiang Xue disapprovingly and said, "Xue’er, for such a major event, why didn’t you tell us?"

"Dad, I’m sorry, I was afraid you would worry, so I didn’t tell you. But I also didn’t expect the other party to send so many people. Speaking of which, we really have to thank Qian Cheng. If it weren’t for him finding some comrades to secretly protect us, I’m afraid these people would have truly broken into the house."

"Xue’er, can you tell us why these people broke into our house at night?" Bai Yuhua asked Jiang Xue with a worried face.

Now those people have been arrested, but those behind them may not be. And in this kind of situation, there could be more. What if the person behind them doesn’t give up and causes more trouble?

"Mom, I’m not sure either. But don’t worry, I’ve just asked the police to help me investigate to see what the other party is really after."

Upon hearing what Jiang Xue said, Bai Yuhua didn’t say anything more. She was just an ordinary rural woman and didn’t think too deeply. But Mu Siwu and Father Jiang gave Jiang Xue a deep look after hearing her words.

They didn’t believe Jiang Xue’s explanation. If she didn’t know the other’s purpose, how could she have arranged for Mu Qiancheng to secretly protect everyone in advance?

However, it’s not the right time to question Jiang Xue, so the two elders didn’t ask further. Besides, it was already late and Jiang Xue looked tired, so after saying a few words, everyone went back to their rooms to sleep.

As for Nangong Jun, upon learning that Master Niu and his people had been taken to the police station, he was relieved. Fortunately, he didn’t go in with them; otherwise, he would be taken to the police station too.

However, after his relief, Nangong Jun began to worry. He was afraid his subordinates might betray him. And there’s Master Niu, his lifesaver, who is now in the police station, and he needs to figure out a way to get him out.

Thinking about going to the police station to get someone, Nangong Jun was somewhat conflicted. But in the end, he decided to have someone scout out the situation first.

As for Nangong Chen, upon learning that Jiang Xue had sent Nangong Jun’s people to the police station, he showed a slight smile. He knew what happened that night very clearly, as he had sent people to secretly follow Master Niu. Originally, he thought he’d have the opportunity to play the hero saving the damsel in distress, but it turned out he didn’t need to act; Master Niu was already down.

It seems Jiang Xue is far more formidable than he imagined, so the possibility of using the heroic rescue to win Jiang Xue’s favor is unlikely.

Regardless of what others thought, Jiang Xue was unaware. After returning to her room to rest, she slept soundly until dawn. In the morning, she practiced some boxing and cultivated for a while before eating and heading to work.

She had already familiarized herself with the company matters last week. Today, she planned to officially appear before the employees, so upon arriving at the company, Shangguan Wenbin held a mid-level meeting to introduce Jiang Xue to everyone.
