1990s Hong Kong: Waking Up as the Kidnapped Tycoon's Sister-in-Law

Chen Rou first meets Nie Zhao because of an anti-terrorism case involving Hong Kong's wealthy elite. He is the richest man in Hong Kong for many years, and a renowned powerful figure. Even thou...

Chapter 570 Public Apology!

Sir Lee, that bigwig at the TV station, is actually very shrewd in his dealings.

Although he didn't dare to take the same risks as Nie Zhao, he has never been stingy with his charity work in mainland China, which is admirable. Chen Rou's silhouette as a "mainland spy" has always been a staple of the evening news.

Gradually, when people in Hong Kong talked about mainland agents, they could put them on par with 007 and Bond.

Understandably, he had significant assets overseas, in areas under British control, especially in Ceylon. Colonel Rango used these assets as leverage, demanding that he find a way to stop the live broadcast and only offer a small-scale apology, which Rango had no choice but to agree to.

And for that reason, he only went to the TV station, not to the actual location.

Battalion Commander Zhao could understand this, but what he didn't understand was why many highly educated people and newspaper editors weren't as happy or as concerned about today's incident as the Hong Kong police.

Furthermore, he was so grateful that he couldn't express it in words, because he hadn't expected that Mrs. Nie would be the first to come in and sit in the middle.

He wanted to talk to her about his doubts about highly educated people; he was sure she knew the answers and could help her resolve them.

But since people were coming in, and they were all respected elderly gentlemen, as well as all the high-ranking superintendents of the Hong Kong police, who were his superiors, Battalion Commander Zhao stood up to greet the guests.

Oh right, A Yuan was swinging on his arm like a swing, but Chen Rou pulled him down.

At first, no one knew he was Nie Zhao's son, and nobody cared, but now we have to put a mask on him.

When the recording begins, the audience will be recorded, and Chen Rou doesn't want her son to be recognized by the public.

In the middle were Colonel Lange and Battalion Commander Zhao. Chen Rou was already seated, so she didn't change seats. On the other side, after a few polite exchanges, Sir Ding sat down. There were also the Chief Justice, Inspector Gu, and several university presidents. The front row was basically full, and the second row was occupied by the senior police superintendents.

Inspector Zhao, Inspector Wang, and the newly selected group of senior superintendents took their seats in turn.

Colonel Rango will naturally be the last to arrive. He's the male lead today too, so he probably needs to compose himself.

Lieutenant Colonel Wali remained on the stage, providing the broadcast studio with camera positions, lighting, and microphones.

Despite his seemingly tough exterior, Battalion Commander Zhao is actually quite fond of complaining, being a member of the younger generation.

The person in question hadn't arrived yet, and everyone was whispering and chatting. Suddenly, he turned his head and said, "The Queen looks too low."

Chen Rou immediately understood what he meant and said with a smile, "It's because Lieutenant Colonel Wali is too short."

The canvas features a portrait of the Queen; once the background is set up, its position is usually adjusted and it won't change again.

In the footage, the statue of the Queen should be positioned behind Colonel Rango's right ear. However, Lieutenant Colonel Vali, who came to help adjust the position, is shorter than the tall and imposing Colonel Rango. When he went up on stage, wouldn't the statue of the Queen be blocked?

Ah Yuan was in his father's arms at the moment, and Nie Zhao was quietly asking him what he ate last night, what time he went to bed, whether he woke up in the middle of the night to pee, and whether the wet nurse came immediately when he called for her.

Although he did not remember the abuse he suffered in his childhood, he was naturally wary of his wet nurse.

His narrow-mindedness led him to fear that his son would be abused.

But Nie Zhao suddenly felt that something was not right, because logically, his wife should not know Battalion Commander Zhao, right?

But when he entered the room, the first thing he saw was Battalion Commander Zhao turning his head to say something to his wife.

And now, it's happening again. Whatever he says, his wife laughs so happily.

It is said that Battalion Commander Zhao was born to leave a deep impression on everyone who met him.

Take Nie Zhao for example. This is the first time in his life that someone has shaken his hand so hard it hurts.

Just then, Battalion Commander Zhao turned his head and asked something again.

His wife also turned her head and said something in a low voice. Battalion Commander Zhao sat up straight and nodded deeply.

He then asked something else, and his wife gave a detailed explanation.

Nie Zhao didn't want to interrupt and ask what they were talking about, so as soon as he let go, his son ran towards his wife.

The little guy leaned in to listen, so, alright, Battalion Commander Zhao finally realized it wasn't appropriate for the child to hear, and stopped talking.

Just then, suddenly, the officers behind them stopped chatting and all stood up abruptly.

Battalion Commander Zhao guessed that Colonel Lango had arrived, and Lieutenant Colonel Wali thought so too. He jumped off the podium and ran over in a flash, but he suddenly stopped and frowned. When Battalion Commander Zhao saw this, he also frowned.

Colonel Rango entered, but he nodded in greeting without receiving a response from the officers.

Instead, everyone's eyes were fixed on what was behind him, and behind him was a man with white hair, wearing only jeans, a black T-shirt, and an old plaid shirt over it, with one hand in his pocket and the other carrying a stool.

The officers spontaneously applauded because of him.

After returning to Hong Kong, he had been staying at home, and today was the first time he had made a public appearance.

After all, it was something he achieved through his own hard work, and he wanted to witness it personally.

The fact that he is still alive, and that the police have been working to remove him from the list of suspects in the Lin Sir case without arresting or prosecuting him, means that these officers, like him, are now aligned with Hong Kong.

Heroes are not created through praise, nor can respect be gained out of thin air.

Huo Qi earned applause and the admiration of all the officers through his actions.

The moment Inspector Gu turned his head and saw the man, he gestured for him to sit down, saying, "Officer Huo, please sit here."

Huo Qi glanced at it and simply said, "No need."
