Zerg: Cold and aloof Major General, stop pretending to be innocent, I have a headache!
Chapter 179 Interrogation
"........" Jiang Xu sighed.
Okay, okay, do you really think you can stop them from meeting?
Just then, the communicator on his wrist vibrated.
He glanced at the name of the contact worm above, then waved to Fei: "I'm leaving now."
After saying that, he turned around, picked up the communicator, and walked towards the gate of the military headquarters.
"Grandfather," Jiang Xu called out to the insect on the other end of the communicator after the call connected.
"Still in the military camp?" Jiang Mian, who was opposite him, turned his head and looked around at his surroundings before asking.
"Yeah, I was just about to leave." Jiang Xu didn't stop what he was doing, so he didn't notice the female insect standing behind him, watching him go for a long time.
"The aircraft should have arrived at the military region gate a while ago. You can just take it back," Jiang Mian instructed from across the way.
As they were talking, two little heads peeked out from Jiang Xu's collar, and the little ones called out to Jiang Mian opposite them, "Great-grandfather..."
Jiang Xu looked at the little bug with some surprise—when did he learn this word?
"Wow, Xiao Yi can call out to insects now!" Jiang Mian, who was about to hang up the call, stopped and looked at the little insect on the screen in surprise.
As soon as he finished speaking, another female insect appeared on the screen.
The little guy was even happier and clearly called out to Zoran across from him, "Great-grandfather."
This sentence is much more fluent than the previous one.
"The little bug can talk now, that's amazing." Zoran looked at Jiang Yi with a warm smile and praised him generously.
Jiang Yi, who had only peeked out with his head slightly, stretched his entire upper body out after hearing the praise, his eyes full of obedience, and desperately called out to the opposite side as if seeking praise: "Great-grandfather, great-grandfather, great-grandfather!"
"......" Jiang Xu looked at it and thought to himself, "It only received a compliment and it's already wagging its tail like crazy."
As the baby insect poked its head out, the snow weasel next to it also stretched out half of its body and squeaked at the two insects opposite it.
It seems they don't want to be outdone by the little bugs.
Jiang Xu reluctantly pulled the two little devils out of his clothes and placed them on his left and right shoulders.
The temperature in the east is much warmer than in the south, so he wasn't worried that they would catch a cold.
After doing all this, he looked at the holographic projection on the communicator and clearly saw Jiang Mian on the other end of the line slightly furrow his brows.
He followed the other person's gaze, which was clearly fixed on his left shoulder—the location of the snow weasel.
"Come back." Jiang Mian's tone, which had been concerned just moments before, instantly turned cold.
Jiang Xu suddenly felt as if he had stepped on the other person's lungs and directly provoked them to explode.
"........." He suddenly realized something and incredulously picked up the snow weasel in his hand: "Don't tell me you've lived for so many years?!"
When Jiang Mian was with the Jiang family in the south, that was at least sixty or seventy years ago, but when the other party saw the snow weasel on his body, their expression was so cold that it didn't seem fake.
Jiang Ping also realized something was wrong, and looked at Jiang Xu in surprise, then at the snow weasel on his shoulder: "Uncle Mian found out?"
That shouldn't be the case!
He looked Jiang Xu up and down, trying to find something on him that was related to the Jiang family in the south, but apart from the snow weasel, there was nothing.
"This must be a fairy!" Jiang Ping exclaimed in surprise.
"Perhaps." Jiang Xu met his gaze, pressed his hand to his forehead, and thought helplessly.
He never imagined that his deliberate avoidance of bringing out any items belonging to the Jiang family in the south would ultimately lead to his downfall because of this snow weasel.
He suddenly remembered the inexplicable smile on Jiang Bian's lips when he left.
So that's what they were waiting for me here.
As the two insects walked out of the military district gate, there was indeed an aircraft parked at the entrance, with another insect standing next to it, saluting them: "Lord Jiang Mian sent me to pick you two up."
Jiang Xu felt a little resistant, but in the end he still went back to the Jiang family.
When I entered the hall, several insects were already sitting on the sofa.
Jiang Xu unexpectedly spotted a male insect that shouldn't be there. He glanced at Jiang Ping beside him instinctively, but quickly looked away, walked forward, and stopped a few steps away from them.
"Male grandfather, female grandfather, male father, female father," he called out to the four insects, then paused before calling out to the male insect beside him, "Uncle Lin."
"What's wrong? Why are you calling out so reluctantly?" Lin An gestured with his chin towards Jiang Xu, who had paused deliberately when calling him. "Is it because it's been so long and you don't recognize me? Or are you scared when you see me?"
"You're joking," Jiang Xu said. "It's just a bit unexpected that you're here at the Jiang family home."
Jiang Ping, who was behind him, nodded to Jiang Mian and then walked to sit down not far from Lin An.
"......." Jiang Xu looked at the scene before him and felt as if a group of insects were judging him.
Even the only insect that might have stood by their side turned against them.
Jiang Mian glanced at Jiang Ping with a fleeting, indifferent expression before finally fixing his gaze on the snow weasel on Jiang Xu's shoulder.
The ferret seemed to have seen something rare. It jumped off Jiang Xu's shoulder in a flash and ran straight to sit on Jiang Mian's crossed legs.
"..." Jiang Xu glanced at the snow weasel sitting on Jiang Mian's lap, then at Jiang Mian himself: "Is this your pet?"
Jiang Mian glanced down at the little guy sitting obediently on his lap, then raised his hand and tapped it on the back of the head: "Are you still here?"
His tone was casual and ordinary, but it was rather strange to say this to a ferret.
Under the watchful eyes of all the insects, the snow weasel slowly squeaked, as if in response to Jiang Mian's words.
"I thought you were long dead," Jiang Mian said again.
Upon hearing this, the ferret on his lap turned its head to look at him like an insect, and then squeaked.
"..." Jiang Xu looked speechlessly at the insect and the weasel: "Don't tell me you two are having a chat?"
His question was something that all the insects present were curious about.
However, Jiang Mian did not answer his question, but instead turned his gaze to him.
"Why didn't you tell me you were going to the Jiang family in the south?" Jiang Mian's voice was unusually calm, as calm as the silence before an avalanche.
Jiang Xu shut his mouth and remained silent for a while before muttering, "You didn't tell me you were this shrewd."
He thought he could get away with it, but how come his plan was exposed as soon as he got off the aircraft?
"What are you going to the Jiang family in the south for?" Jiang Mian asked again.
"Well, just a little bit..." He suddenly changed the subject: "You're joking. Of course, I'm going to handle the matters related to this cooperation."
I almost blurted out my true thoughts.
Jiang Mian glanced at him indifferently: "Lying. The destination for this shipment is not in the southern capital at all."
"I'm just telling the truth." Jiang Xu turned to look at Jiang Ping, who had already integrated into the opposing camp, and slowly said under the other's disapproving gaze, "If you don't believe me, ask Uncle Jiang."
