Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg-Chapter 646: Someone Behind the Scenes

They had already planned it. When Jiang Xue was halfway there, they would show up and kidnap her.

But unexpectedly, she didn’t do as they thought—neither riding a bike nor walking. Instead, she drove out.

This change left them dumbfounded, and for a long time, they couldn’t react. It wasn’t until Jiang Xue’s car left the community and headed onto the main road that they came to their senses, then took out their phones again.

"Uh, we can’t keep up. That woman drove away."

"What, the woman actually drove out?" Hearing the report from his subordinates, the person in charge was also a bit surprised. Wasn’t Jiang Xue just a country girl? How could she have a car?

Could it be that the information they gathered was wrong? If Jiang Xue turned out to be someone significant, they would be in trouble. Thinking of this, the person in charge decided to have his men withdraw first.

After all, since they couldn’t catch up now, it was better to retreat and rethink their strategy.

That afternoon, when Gao Yang called again to ask about the progress, the person in charge told him about their findings.

"What did you say? She actually has a car, and a nice one at that. How is that possible?" Gao Yang was a little skeptical. According to Lu Ling, Jiang Xue had forced her to kneel and kowtow just because her husband was present that day.

Could it be that there was more to the story than Lu Ling had said?

Thinking of this, Gao Yang immediately instructed the person responsible for the matter, "Look into it again for me, investigate Jiang Xue’s social connections."

"Okay, Brother Yang." The other party agreed, and even without Gao Yang’s command, he would have taken a good look into it.

Although they were involved in the underworld, they knew very well who they could offend and who they couldn’t. If Jiang Xue was someone they couldn’t afford to offend, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After hanging up the phone, the person in charge was just about to send someone to investigate. After thinking about it, to be safe, he decided to go himself.

Thus, he personally investigated Jiang Xue’s social connections. What he found was startling. Jiang Xue’s background didn’t stand out—she really was just a country girl. But she was a member of the calligraphy association and had excellent penmanship.

Moreover, she not only had good relations with the Liu Family in Xu City but was also friends with Yang Yuan in the cultural field. That wasn’t all; he also discovered a strange pattern: anyone who crossed Jiang Xue didn’t end well.

Previously, there was a Jiang Mingzhu, and later a Ming Lan. It was said that these two were mother and daughter, yet they both offended Jiang Xue and ended up in prison.

The person in charge followed this lead further, and as he investigated, he discovered that Jiang Xue had powerful connections behind her.

Reaching this point, the person in charge didn’t dare investigate any further. He had to call Gao Yang to suggest seeking higher expertise.

"What’s going on? Why are you backing out?" Gao Yang, upon receiving the call and hearing about the withdrawal, immediately questioned.

"Brother Yang, we can’t afford to provoke that woman, sorry!"

Upon hearing this, Gao Yang’s expression slightly changed, and he asked, "Is that woman’s identity complicated?"

"Her own identity isn’t complex, but she seems to have someone backing her. You might not know this, but anyone who has crossed that woman hasn’t met a good end. So far, I’ve found two people in prison because of her."

"What? How can that be?" Gao Yang was shocked. Getting people thrown in jail wasn’t something just anyone could do. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

At this moment, the person in charge dropped another bombshell, saying, "Also, the two people locked up were from the Jiang Family in South City. One of them even seemed to have connections in Beijing."
