Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife-Chapter 1437 - 1438: Made into a Canary

After Qi Taiguo received a call from Ning Ge, his expression turned peculiar. Half an hour later, he hung up and called his sister into the room. Then he looked at Cheng Su and said, "Guess who took Chiang Qing away?"

Cheng Su rolled her eyes: "Stop playing games. If I knew, would I have let you ponder for days? Just tell me, what did Ning Ge find out?"

Qi Taiguo chuckled awkwardly: "Look at you, no fun at all."

Cheng Su grabbed the pillow behind her and threw it at him.

Qi Taiguo caught it with a laugh, sat down beside her, and then said seriously, "Do you remember who Chiang Qing accompanied to the research event last year?"

Cheng Su was startled, then said sharply, "Are you saying it was Secretary Gao who took her away?"

Qi Taiguo nodded: "Ning Ge traced it back to Secretary Gao. Now, Chiang Qing is likely hidden by Secretary Gao."

"Hidden?" Cheng Su sat up slightly and said, "How could it be? If he wanted to take her away, why hide her? This is..."

She was pregnant, and her reactions were slow. She couldn’t quite understand Secretary Gao’s intentions for hiding her, what was the purpose?

Qi Taiguo looked at her with a strange expression and said, "What do you think a man hides a woman for? That Secretary Gao is also a powerful man with a family."

Cheng Su was stunned: "Are you saying Chiang Qing is being kept like a canary by Secretary Gao?"

"More likely than not."

Cheng Su truly didn’t know what to say, just recalling last year when Chiang Qing accompanied Secretary Gao. Well, Secretary Gao’s gaze towards Chiang Qing indeed didn’t look like that of an ordinary elder looking at a niece, but rather with a hint of possessiveness and interest.

That kind of interest, a man’s interest in a woman.

And Chiang Qing, she’s a stunning beauty!

If it’s really as Qi Taiguo said, she with that old man, who could be her grandfather...

Cheng Su shuddered with disgust, retching, unable to accept it. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"If that’s the case, she might as well be in a mental institution!" Cheng Su said.

Being kept like a canary by an old man would mean selling her body, so to speak, out of the wolf’s den and into the tiger’s lair.

Chiang Qing, with her high pride, could she bear it?

Qi Taiguo’s expression was somewhat stern as he said, "For her, it’s a chance for a turnaround. Once outside, there’s a sliver of hope; but in the mental institution, without anyone fetching her, who would let her out?"

"But would Secretary Gao allow her to turn the tables? He has a wife, right, and being in such a high position, would he risk it?" Cheng Su said.

She thought an older man, especially a high-ranking official about to retire, surely wouldn’t risk ruining all his past achievements just for a woman. Would it be worth it?

"Ning Ge also said that Secretary Gao is due to retire next year!" Qi Taiguo said, "So he probably wouldn’t take that risk."

"So his motive for taking Chiang Qing away is purely personal desire, to keep her as his concubine?" Cheng Su felt her brain was almost bursting.

"Seems so. Who would’ve thought that old guy would stay patient all this time and only now take her away." Qi Taiguo sighed and exhaled deeply: "Anyway, we can be somewhat relieved. Since she’s hidden, surely he won’t let her cause a scene."

Cheng Su nodded, thinking of Chiang Qing’s pitiful situation with that old man, and couldn’t help but shiver.
