“Actually, I also investigated Sun Yue, and he is indeed a trustworthy person, but what about your mother…”

Old He had already investigated Sun Yue's background and found that he met all the criteria for his ideal son-in-law.

But when she thought of Aunt He, a hint of hesitation appeared on her face.

"Dad, you've been controlled by Mom your whole life. Can't you fight back for your daughter's happiness this once and for all?"

Looking at his father's expression, He knew that Old He was good to him and had his eye on Sun Yue as a son-in-law. He raised his fist and asked Old He.

"Alright! Your old man will risk it all for you this time!"

Old He had also made up his mind, and said to He Xiang with a firm look in his eyes.

"Yeah, that's great! I can finally date Sun Yue openly and honestly!"

Hearing that Lao He had helped him solve his mother's problem, He Xiang shouted with joy.

"Keep your voice down!"

While Lao He was still thinking about how to persuade his mother, he heard He Xiang shout, which startled him.

He quickly made a shushing gesture at He Xiang.

"Okay, okay, I'll keep a low profile."

He Xiang also realized that he was speaking too loudly, so he quickly lowered his voice and playfully stuck out his tongue at Lao He.

"Don't get too excited yet. I can only say I'll try my best to persuade your mother. I'll first find out what she's thinking. If she shows any signs of relenting, then things will be easier for us. If she still doesn't agree, there's not much I can do. In that case, you'll have to ask your grandfather to step in."

Thinking of his mother's appearance, his father had no confidence at all.

Because He's mother came from a very wealthy family, and he was just a low-level civil servant when he got married, he gradually rose to the position of police chief after meeting He's mother.

Therefore, in the family, He's mother made all the decisions, big and small, and He, the son-in-law who had married into the family, had no say at all.

But for his daughter's happiness, Lao He didn't care about any of that.

After thinking it over, I decided to leave myself a way out. He Xiang's father used to be the head of the procuratorate. Although he has retired now, if anyone could persuade He's mother, it would probably be this person.

“My maternal grandfather will definitely help me; he’s always indulged me since I was little.”

Upon hearing Lao He mention his maternal grandfather, He Xiang suddenly slapped his forehead and remembered that his mother was most afraid of his maternal grandfather, and he couldn't believe she would continue to object.

"Alright, you should still be careful about your image in Peking Opera in the future, and don't let others know about our relationship."

After giving a few instructions, Lao He turned and left with his hands behind his back.

"There are probably very few people in the police station who don't know about it."

He Xiang watched Lao He's departing figure, thinking about how Lao He had told him not to tell anyone. In fact, everyone else already knew, except for Lao He, who was probably kept in the dark.

"Officer Wu!"

Just as He Xiang was about to go back, he saw someone walking towards him. He recognized him as Master Sun Yue, whom he had met the night before, and waved to him with a smile.

"Oh, it's Xiao He!"

Hearing someone call his name, he turned around and saw He Xiang walking towards him. Knowing that this girl was Sun Yue's apprentice, he smiled and greeted her.

"Is Officer Wu here to see Sun Yue?"

He Xiang watched as Officer Wu was about to enter the criminal investigation team's work area and asked him with a smile.

"No, is your Captain Sun in his office?"

After listening to He Xiang's words, Old Wu smiled and shook his head, then asked He Xiang a question.

"Yes, he's in his office right now."

He was a little surprised to hear that Lao Wu had come to see Sun Dahai. Just yesterday, Sun Yue had said that Lao Wu disdained to talk to Sun Dahai.

I took the initiative to find the other party today, but I still answered them with a smile.

"good."

Old Wu didn't say anything more, opened the door and walked into the criminal investigation team's office area, and He Xiang followed him in.

"Master, what brings you here?"

Hearing the door open, Sun Yue thought He Xiang had returned. Looking towards the door, she was surprised to see that it was her master who walked in first. In her memory, her master had not entered this work area for a very long time. She stood up in surprise and asked Lao Wu.

"Sit down. I'm here to see Sun Dahai about something. You two continue with your work."

Old Wu walked quickly and pressed Sun Yue, who was about to stand up, back into her seat. Other former apprentices also wanted to get up and greet him. Old Wu didn't want to make a big fuss, so he waved to everyone and said...

After he finished speaking, Lao Wu walked towards Sun Dahai's office.

"What's wrong, Sun Yue?"

He wanted to sit back down, but seeing Sun Yue staring at Lao Wu's departing figure, he waved his hand in front of her eyes with some confusion and asked.

"He came to deliver a summons."

Sun Yue stared at the file bag in Lao Wu's hand and said to He Xiang beside her.

"What?"

I hadn't been paying attention to the documents in Lao Wu's hand until I heard Sun Yue finish speaking, but my eyes were now fixed on the document bag in Lao Wu's hand.

Knock knock knock!

"Who is it? Come in!"

Sun Dahai, sitting in his office chair, was still pinching his forehead with his hand.

Hearing the doorbell ring again, he said somewhat impatiently.

"Captain Sun, it seems you're not very welcoming of me!"

Old Wu pushed open the door and walked in, then closed it behind him, looking at Sun Dahai with a smile.

"Hey, Brother Wu, you've arrived! Please, have a seat. I happen to have some good tea here. It's been a long time since we last met, so let's spend some quality time together."

When Sun Dahai saw that it was Lao Wu, a hint of surprise flashed through his mind, but it quickly disappeared.

He stood up enthusiastically, pulled Old Wu's arm, and sat him on the sofa.

"I saw that Captain Sun didn't seem very happy just now, and I thought it was because he wasn't welcoming me."

Looking at Sun Dahai's smiling face, Lao Wu felt disgusted from the bottom of his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. However, his words were full of provocation.

"Hey, I've had so much going on lately, and the pressure from above is immense. Also, yesterday I asked Sun Yue to get a summons from you, but your people just wouldn't do it for me. Otherwise, I wouldn't be so worried."

Sun Dahai could understand the meaning behind Lao Wu's words, but he still smiled and spoke to him.

Sun Dahai knew that it was Lao Wu who wouldn't give him a ride, but he pretended not to know and complained to him.

"Indeed, I had some things to do yesterday, and my subordinates insisted on following the rules. I found out about this this morning, and I gave them a good scolding. That's why I brought you the summons."

Hearing that Sun Dahai had given him a way out, Old Wu smiled.

He then threw the file bag he had brought onto the table and said.
