Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg

Chapter 1298: Chapter 1298: Reporting for Duty

Jiang Xue noticed that the elders and children were not at home, so she returned to the study to read. More than a week had passed since school started, but she had been busy with company matters and hadn’t looked at the school-issued books.

Now that she finally had time, she could take a good look at them.

Jiang Xue read quickly, and within an hour, she finished most of the book and memorized all of it.

As the appointed time approached, Jiang Xue put the book down and went downstairs.

No sooner had she gone down than the doorbell rang. Niu went to open the door and led two men inside.

One man appeared to be in his twenties. The other looked to be about thirty-five.

As soon as the two men saw Jiang Xue, they called her "sister-in-law" and introduced themselves. The younger one was named Huo Cong, and the older one was Zhang Liang.

Jiang Xue scrutinized them, matching the description Mu Qiancheng had given on the phone. Zhang Liang didn’t talk much; he seemed reliable and was hired as Mu Qiancheng’s housekeeper.

Huo Cong looked more like a sunny big boy, not at all like someone who had been on the battlefield and killed.

After a brief introduction, Jiang Xue discussed her requirements, and then asked Niu to show them to their accommodations.

Fortunately, when the house was bought, it was quite large. There were still rooms on the first floor; otherwise, they would have to be placed on the second floor.

It’s not that Jiang Xue was being picky and didn’t want them on the second floor, but their future duties were to protect the elders and children of the family, so the first floor would be more convenient.

Huo Cong and Zhang Liang didn’t bring many things, just a few sets of clothes and some daily necessities. So they quickly got organized and came out to say to Jiang Xue, "Sister-in-law, we’ve sorted our things out and would like to go out and see the surroundings."

"Go ahead, come back early, dinner is at seven," Jiang Xue instructed, and let them go out. As they were leaving, they bumped into Father Jiang and the others returning home.

"Hello, uncles and aunties!" The two greeted the elders and went out.

Upon returning home, the elders noticed Jiang Xue was back and inquired about Huo Cong and Zhang Liang.

"Xue’er, were those the comrades of Qiancheng?"

"Yes, one is named Huo Cong, and the other is Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang is the housekeeper, and Huo Cong will be the family driver."

"Since Qiancheng arranged it, we won’t say much. But with more people at home, the expenses will increase," Bai Yuhua said worriedly.

"Mom, don’t worry, it’s just two more people, our family can afford it," Jiang Xue replied with a smile, not telling them that they were hired as bodyguards by Mu Qiancheng for their protection.

At seven o’clock, Huo Cong and Zhang Liang returned punctually. Jiang Xue then formally introduced them to her family and also introduced the elders.

After exchanging greetings, Niu called them for dinner, and everyone went to the dining room to eat. The dining room was fortunately big enough to accommodate everyone.

Initially, Huo Cong and Zhang Liang were reluctant to join the table, but after Jiang Xue and Mu Siwu spoke to them briefly, they sat down to dine with Jiang Xue and the others.

After dinner, Jiang Xue told the two to rest.

Early the next morning, the two got up early, practiced martial arts in the yard, and then jogged around the neighborhood.
