Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1223: Chapter 1224: Winds and Clouds Surging

Hearing that Chiang Qing was sent to a mental institution, unless there’s an unexpected turn of events, she won’t be causing trouble for a year or even longer. Cheng Su feels like she can sleep soundly and sweetly.

Qi Taiguo laughs, saying her joy is just like winning the lottery, but Cheng Su shakes her finger: ”No, no, winning the lottery doesn’t make me this happy. Now my personal safety is guaranteed, and my heart is joyful. Winning the lottery just means getting some money, which isn’t as good as this!”

Though money is necessary, when you have money, you’re always on guard against potential threats and disruptions, how can your heart be completely relaxed?

There’s a saying, basically meaning you know she’ll make a move on you, but you don’t know when she’ll do it, and that’s what’s most unsettling.

So now that Chiang Qing is locked up, nothing major for now, there’s a period of ease ahead!

”Don’t you think I’m ruthless?” Qi Taiguo asks, looking at her with a bit of tension in his heart.

Sending someone to such a place seems quite scary; he doesn’t want her to fear him.

Cheng Su smiles slightly and says, ”Being ruthless is right. Let me tell you, if you weren’t ruthless with other women, I’d be scared. Especially with someone as mentally unstable as Chiang Qing, it’s truly a fitting place for her. The mentally ill shouldn’t be let out to harm others!”

Qi Taiguo pulls her close, kisses her, and says, ”Thank goodness!”

Cheng Su pushes him away: ”Alright, let’s leave it at this. Life has to go on. Your two new recruits are coming soon, you better get prepared!”

Qi Taiguo suddenly feels a headache again.

Thinking of his previous plans, he asks: ”By the way, what do you think, should I enroll in a school and get a diploma or something? Many officers seem to have all kinds of specialties and university degrees listed on their resumes!”

It’s all for appearance, a way of self-enhancement, stacking up these credentials becomes a mark of honor.

”If you want to, you totally should! I told you before, we can progress together, the key is if you want to learn.” Cheng Su fully supports him.

Qi Taiguo knows she would definitely support him, so he says, ”Then I’ll look into what courses to enroll in later!”

Cheng Su smiles and nods.

With this settled, Ning Ge is occupied with Qi Taiguo’s conjecture, worried about the Loo Family, so she doesn’t want to stay in Qing City. She greets Cheng Su and heads to Guangcheng, meanwhile instructing Bai Ying to secretly investigate the Loo Family’s financial issues.

Now, the Loo Family’s affair is a priority, because if Qi Taiguo’s idea is true, it involves a major case concerning national interests.

As for Cheng Yaozu, back at the house in Guangcheng, he quickly finds Old Master Cheng and his elder brother to discuss Qi Taiguo’s idea.

Old Master Cheng and Cheng Yaoguang’s expressions change.

”Although there’s no concrete evidence, ultimately Guangcheng is under your jurisdiction. If anything goes wrong, even if you’re not the head of that area, you can’t escape the blame of negligence.” Old Master Cheng looks at Cheng Yaoguang and says, ”It’s one thing if this turns out wrong, that’d just mean some smuggling. But if we’re unfortunately right, then it’s a big trouble. We must be cautious, this can’t be treated as a personal matter anymore.”

Cheng Yaoguang, thoughtfully, replies: ”Dad, I’ll make arrangements immediately, using crime crackdowns as an excuse, we’ll conduct a thorough investigation.”

Old Master Cheng nods and asks Cheng Yaozu about other matters.

Suddenly, everyone gets into action, a storm brews.
