It seems the Hou family no longer needs my intervention.

Since the materials submitted to the disciplinary inspection department have been reported, it's impossible that nothing will happen in the end.

There's still no news, which likely means the disciplinary inspection department is still secretly investigating something and hasn't released any information.

However, it won't be long before we have to wait any longer.

...

"Go back first, and don't let this get out," Ye Wanying whispered to Minister Gu.

Who is Gu Ziling?

He immediately understood what it meant and nodded, "Okay, don't worry, sister-in-law, I definitely will."

......

Xia Hong had been waiting outside, her hair disheveled by the wind. Seeing the figures emerge, she quickly went forward.

"Yingying, are you alright?"

"Sister Hong?"

That was quite surprising.

Could it be that... Minister Gu has already won over his own editor-in-chief?

If so, that would be wonderful!

Oh.

Xia Hong looked at the obvious expression on her author and friend's face, her lips twitched violently twice, and then she pulled the person aside:

What are you thinking about?

Forehead....

"It's nothing, hehe."

If Xia Hong believed that, then something was definitely amiss.

"Don't give me any nonsense. What's going on with you two today? Why are you being detained by the police station?"

Yingying sighed twice: "Just bad luck."

People say you can get shot even when you're lying down; today I got shot even while standing nearby. I slowly and clearly recounted what happened.

Xia Hong's eyes were filled with anger as she listened:

"The family of some minor official, X, is so arrogant?"

uh-huh?

Ye Wanying looked at Xia Hong with a smile: "Sister Hong, your tone... wait, Sister Hong, you wouldn't happen to be one of those legendary second-generation officials or third-generation revolutionaries, would you?"

The official position of X in this small county town may not be high, but he is still a formal member of the national staff and is in charge of an entire county.

Xia Hong paused, coughed twice, and then spoke:

"If we're talking about the children of officials and the elite, aren't you the one?"

Xia Hong knew about her friend's relationship with the Ye family. Moreover, her friend was not only connected to the Ye family, but also had the Gu family, which ranked first among the four major families, protecting her.

If we're talking about the children of officials and the third generation of revolutionaries, this is the real imperial grandson, isn't he?

The two women were bickering, while two men were chatting not far behind them.

"Big brother, what are you planning to do?"

Gao Dan narrowed his eyes slightly, a cold smile playing on his lips: "Of course... we'll do what needs to be done!"

uh-huh?

Gu Ziling paused for a moment before finally understanding: "Big brother, you mean... you wouldn't...?"

"You handle this matter. Remember, don't involve anything that shouldn't be involved. As for the rest, it's up to you."

"Okay! Don't worry, big brother, I'll make sure it's taken care of perfectly."

Commander Gao wasn't about to let it go so easily.

That woman from the Hou family has such a foul mouth; she definitely needs to wash it off properly.

As for the other members of the Hou family, they will not be let off easily.

As a soldier, what I find most unbearable is this kind of official who, despite being the people's guardian, does nothing and even bullies the people by abusing his power.

Of course, as soldiers, we would never do anything that violates military discipline behind someone's back.

The Hou family should be thankful that they still have their lives.

"No rush, let's talk about it after the New Year."

Today is New Year's Eve, and so many people at home are waiting for us.

"Okay! Shall we go straight back to Ye Family Village now?" Gu Ziling asked.

Gao Dan nodded and responded softly.

But just then, Gao Dan's gaze suddenly shot towards a secluded spot outside the police station gate:

"Gu Ziling, you take them and go first. Wait for me at the crossroads."

"Huh? Brother, where are you going again?"

Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask.
