Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 148 - The Attitude a Wife Should Have

Chapter 148: Chapter 148 The Attitude a Wife Should Have

At that moment, Qin Yize’s thoughts were extremely complicated; she had hidden too many things from him.

But when he looked into those clear, piercing eyes, his usually cold heart couldn’t help but soften.

Let it be.

So be it.

No matter how Gu Qiaoqiao knew, since she didn’t want to talk, he wouldn’t force her.

He would give her time to trust him bit by bit.

If she wanted to talk, he would listen.

If she didn’t want to reveal anything, he would pretend to know nothing.

After thinking it over, Gu Qiaoqiao added one more thing, “However, I can’t guarantee one hundred percent that this meat was really poisoned.”

Better safe than sorry.

Qin Yize remained silent.

Gu Qiaoqiao looked up and asked, “Will you take these things for testing directly?”

Only after the test results come out will they know what exactly happened.

Qin Yize nodded lightly.

Yet his mind was churning.

Daring to tamper right under his eyes, targeting such an important place as the Border City Base laboratory, the person’s purpose and motivation are definitely not pure.

Especially given the current climate and background.

He couldn’t be sure if this was connected to some foreign forces.

But he couldn’t tell Gu Qiaoqiao.

And this matter must not show any signs that might expose Gu Qiaoqiao as the one who found something off with this pot of meat.

So this must be carried out in secrecy.

Now, he needed to test the poison in this pot of meat as quickly as possible and then ferret out the person behind this.

As the second-in-command at the base, he needed to secure the most accurate evidence.

And the person responsible was definitely not acting alone; they might be collaborating with foreign forces.

Or perhaps this person was a part of foreign forces themselves.

He couldn’t be sure it was Zhao Ying.

After all, Choo Lan and Zhu Xiaohong had also turned up uninvited today.

And the fact that all three of them came together was also quite suspicious.

Many things shouldn’t be taken at face value, what seems normal might not be normal, and what seems abnormal might actually be normal.

Qin Yize looked at Gu Qiaoqiao, whose complexion was even paler than before.

He praised gently, “Whether there was poison or not, the decision you made was the right one. You are a smart and brave girl. But keep this matter between you and me, don’t tell a third person. I’m going to leave now, shall I have Engineer Zheng’s wife accompany you?”

Gu Qiaoqiao looked at Qin Yize, shook her head, and said softly, “No need.”

“Are you not afraid?”

“No,” she said softly yet firmly.

Gu Qiaoqiao knew she had already faced the worst moments of her life; what was this by comparison?

Moreover, Qin Yize’s work would only get busier, and he wouldn’t be able to stay home twenty-four hours a day.

So if he wasn’t home, it wasn’t possible to have Engineer Zheng’s wife accompany her every day.

Since she had come here, she was prepared for everything.

Moreover, Gu Qiaoqiao was confident in herself.

At the very least, her sense of danger was exceptionally sharp.

And her hands, any random object in her grasp could become a deadly weapon.

So she was not afraid at all.

Qin Yize’s eyes flashed with approval; this was exactly the attitude his wife should have.

At this moment, a sense of pride inexplicably rose in Qin Yize’s heart.

He looked deeply at Gu Qiaoqiao, said nothing more, and strode toward the door.

Ten minutes later, Luh Fei arrived in his car.

This was someone Qin Yize could trust.

And when Qin Yize carried the bucket containing the braised pork and potatoes that Gu Qiaoqiao had scraped off the floor, the hint of doubt in Luh Fei’s mind finally found its release.

He instantly understood what was happening.

But actually, he was even more confused.

However, it wasn’t the time for him to delve deeper into the matter.

He solemnly took the bucket and placed it in the car.

Then, glancing at Gu Qiaoqiao, he said softly, “Sister-in-law, thank you.”

Gu Qiaoqiao curved her lips in a smile, shook her head, but didn’t speak.

Luh Fei immediately drove off with Qin Yize towards the direction of the research building.

Gu Qiaoqiao closed the gate, then double-locked the door.

At that moment, Gu Qiaoqiao finally took a deep breath of relief.

She believed that, given Qin Yize’s abilities, he would soon discover the truth.

When the bucket was taken away, Gu Qiaoqiao knew her senses were right; she could be 100 percent certain there was poison in the meat.

Next, it was Qin Yize’s responsibility.

Gu Qiaoqiao felt very tired, washed up, and went straight to rest.

Qin Yize might not be able to return tonight.

Perhaps he would arrest someone overnight.

What was most needed today was swift and decisive action!

That night, Gu Qiaoqiao slept rather peacefully.

And Qin Yize returned two days later.

During those two days, Choo Lan and Zhu Xiaohong did not appear in her sight.

As for anything else, Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t have the courage to inquire.

So everything remained as calm as ever here.

Seeing Qin Yize’s expression at the time, Gu Qiaoqiao knew that either there was a breakthrough, or the culprit was caught.

However, such matters had become internal secrets of the base, and Gu Qiaoqiao smartly did not ask.

She stood at the door and asked softly, “Have you had lunch?”

Because it was already two o’clock in the afternoon.

Gu Qiaoqiao was unsure whether Qin Yize had eaten.

Qin Yize rubbed his forehead. After two days and nights of intense effort, he had finally captured the real culprit.

It was Zhao Ying.

Upon interrogation, Zhao Ying indeed had connections with a foreign force.

And he was one of the key members.

Qin Yize could not forget the smile on this man’s face before he died.

Not for money, not for fame; the purpose was self-evident.

But Zhao Ying’s family background was simple, hailing from a small county town with relatives engaged in farming or manual labor, none with overseas connections.

Zhao Ying had grown up in that county town.

When he contacted local police officers, he learned that in the eyes of neighbors and relatives, Zhao Ying had always been a straightforward child.

At the base, he had also progressed quickly.

There was nothing abnormal.

The only anomaly was that he had returned home only once in the past few years, and he was still single.

He confessed very quickly, as if he knew his fate was sealed, and his admission carried a touch of defiance.

From his mouth, Qin Yize learned that the original target was the base’s canteen.

Although this time it was a sudden decision, if it had been successful, the consequences would have been greater than the influence of the base canteen.

It just so happened that it wasn’t successful.

When no more useful information could be extracted, the guards executed Zhao Ying on the spot.

As the guards of the Border City Base, they had certain privileges in such respects.

After all, this was a special area.

But this was just the beginning.

Zhao Ying confessed too readily, which only added to the eeriness.

The lab results showed that there was indeed poison in that pot of meat, and the poison was a newly developed biochemical toxin.
