Chapter 2998: Chapter 2934: That Red Again
"No matter how complicated, it’s the Cui family’s business. Why are you thinking so much?" Meng Xinian was indifferent.
Could the Cui family’s affairs possibly involve Jiang Xiao?
"That’s true."
Hearing him say so, Jiang Xiao felt relieved and put the matter aside.
Commander Cui and Madam Cui may like her, but she is just a younger acquaintance, and she would not interfere with the Cui family members anyway.
"Then what gifts should we take?"
"The same ones," Jiang Xiao said. "I’ve already prepared, prepared flower tea and snacks, and also apples. Grandma Cui hasn’t tasted the apples I grew yet; I’m sure she’ll want more after trying them."
The apples grown in Jiang Xiao’s Space had already borne fruit several times. She and Meng Xinian had eaten quite a few, and even considering her past life, she had never tasted apples this sweet.
Because she wanted to find a source for these apples, Jiang Xiao had transplanted a tree in the neighboring courtyard, after first picking the apples from it, of course.
But now that apple tree was bearing fruit again.
Ding Haijing and others were amazed, not knowing where she had transplanted this apple tree from, and admired her skill in planting flowers and fruit trees because they grew so well.
Naturally, Jiang Xiao attributed the fruit tree to Meng Xinian, saying he found it. They could ask Meng Xinian themselves, but his response, "Do I need to report to you?" left them speechless.
Originally, Jiang Xiao planned for Ding Haijing to drive her to the Cui family, but since Meng Xinian had returned, she naturally wanted him to drive her there instead.
Ding Haijing felt relieved.
He was fine going anywhere, but going to the Cui family still made him feel a bit pressured.
However, just as they were preparing to leave, Zhu Shun called.
Upon hearing Zhu Shun’s call, Jiang Xiao immediately turned back into the living room.
"Hello, Brother Shun?"
"Sister-in-law, I’ve got the results for the inquiry you asked me to investigate."
"Brother Shun, which matter?"
"Two matters. First, you asked me about the woman Boss Du went to meet in Huchuan. I found out her name. Da Long just returned from his business trip in Pingzhou yesterday, which is why it took half a month."
"It’s alright, what’s the woman’s name?" For some reason, Jiang Xiao’s heart began to race.
"Da Long said he heard Boss Du calling the woman Red Sister."
Red Sister!
How coincidental, another Red!
Chun Hong, Ah Hong, Red Sister!
Could it be her?
The woman from Hongfeng Welfare Institute?
It’s her, right?
"Did he say her full name?"
"No, just that Boss Du called her Red Sister."
"Since he called her sister, she should be older than Boss Du, right?" Jiang Xiao said. "So she wouldn’t necessarily be his childhood sweetheart, she might be slightly older?"
Zhu Shun disagreed.
"No, Da Long said Boss Du was clearly very excited and eager when mentioning this woman, not like he was meeting an elder. Also, she doesn’t necessarily have to be much older to be called Red Sister. If she has some status and prestige, that’s why everyone calls her that."
Jiang Xiao fell silent.
He had a point.
Something hopeful rose from the depths of her heart, "Brother Shun, did they mention if that Red Sister was alone or accompanied?"
Zhu Shun was puzzled as to why she asked so thoroughly, but he answered anyway.
