Qi Yu was quickly taken away by two men. She was quite cooperative, so the two men just watched over her from behind without doing anything, leaving her some dignity.

As Qi Yu passed by Yang Fenglin, who was waiting outside the office, she said to him, "Your father is going to take action against the Qi family. You should say goodbye to your good brother properly!"

Qi Yu's last words were still meant to sow discord, but Yang Fenglin calmly shifted his gaze elsewhere.

He should take care of his own family first.

Seeing Qi Yu being taken away, Liao Zong said to Yang Changping, "Minister Yang, you need to be careful what you say. I've heard about this from beginning to end, and it has nothing to do with Qi Zhong. When she did this, Comrade Qi Zhong was fighting alongside you on the battlefield, and the rest of the Qi family had even less to do with it. You mustn't take your anger out on her."

When Yang Changping was arrested, Qi Zhong secretly worked hard and had already dismissed quite a few people from his ranks in the past week or so. However, Yang Changping knew that he shouldn't have spoken out about these matters that hadn't been made public.

He replied, "I was so angry with him that I lost my temper. Minister Liao, I'm entrusting this matter to you. Please be sure to give my little sister and our Yang family justice. The Ministry of State Security can't be without personnel for even a day. I hope my suspension can be lifted as soon as possible."

"Of course, I will report this immediately."

Yang Changping had done his job on the surface, and Liao Zong didn't care what he did behind the scenes. After all, he had reached this position, and he wasn't foolish enough to believe that Yang Changping would really give up the idea of ​​dealing with the Qi family just because he had given him a word of advice. But once he left this office, whatever Yang Changping did was none of his business.

Yang Changping took Yang Fenglin home. On the way, he glanced at Yang Fenglin and said, "I will try my best not to involve you younger generation in the affairs of our previous generation. Yunxin and Yunjie both have their own things to do now, and I will let them continue to do what they are doing."

Qi Yunxin and Qi Yunjie are practically children Yang Changping has watched grow up. As long as they have their current jobs, they can continue to live a life where they have enough to eat and wear. However, they should forget about the path to success that the Qi family had paved for them.

Yang Fenglin replied, "Mm."

He drove Yang Changping home, and this time Yang Changping didn't hold him back, so he drove back to the army base by himself.

Qi Yunxin could sense that Yang Fenglin had become somewhat distant from him. Although Yang Fenglin accepted his apology, he still felt that their relationship could never go back to what it was before.

"Fenglin, why didn't you go back to the unit yesterday?"

When Yang Fenglin saw Qi Yunxin, he first breathed a sigh of relief before saying, "Something has happened at home. Your aunt's affair has been exposed, and the evidence is conclusive. There's nothing your Qi family can do to save her."

Qi Yunxin's pupils dilated slightly: "How could this be?"

Why shouldn't it be like this?

Yang Fenglin's tone was a bit off, and Qi Yunxin quickly said, "Don't misunderstand, I'm just a little surprised."

Yang Fenglin didn't want to say anything more. He just wanted to give Qi Yunxin some time to prepare himself, out of consideration for their past relationship.

"It's okay. Your dad probably already knows. After what happened to your aunt, it might have a bad impact on your family. You should go home and stay for a few days."

Last week, when Yang Changping was framed for treason, Yang Fenglin was also unable to stay in the army.

As someone who's been through it all, Yang Fenglin advised Qi Yunxin to go home as soon as possible to avoid being gossiped about.

This is the only thing he can do for Qi Yunxin now.

Qi Yunxin understood Yang Fenglin's meaning and nodded: "I'll go ask for leave right away."

"Wait a minute." Yang Fenglin called out to Qi Yunxin, "Tell your sister not to get involved in this. My dad won't take his anger out on either of you."

Qi Yunxin remained silent, nodded, and left.

Yang Fenglin thought of Qi Yunjie and felt sad, knowing that there was no hope for him and Qi Yunjie in the future.

He felt uneasy and didn't go home, staying in the army instead. However, he trained more diligently than usual and didn't rush home every few days like before.

After the Yang family suffered a misfortune, he realized that he was insignificant and powerless, and that he couldn't help his father at all when he was in trouble. Yang Fenglin suddenly felt that he had understood something again and wanted to work hard to make a future.

The situation on Bai Shibao's side was much worse than on Yang Fenglin's side. Now, the news of Yang Changping's treason had spread throughout the army, and the fact that he was Yang Changping's nephew had also become common knowledge thanks to Teng Junye's propaganda.

He wasn't as free as Yang Fenglin, who could come and go as he pleased. He had to live in the military compound, and Guan Xinyan had to suffer the same treatment as him.

"Shibo, now that your uncle is in trouble, can you still stay in the army? Otherwise, let's go home."

Bai Shibao hugged her and said, "Don't be afraid. I got here entirely on my own merits, not because my uncle recommended me."

"I'm not afraid of not being able to stay."

Guan Xinyan has been strong-willed since childhood. After being pointed at and talked about for a few days, she couldn't take it anymore. The thought of living under such gazes for the rest of her life made her feel that she couldn't live a life with good material conditions.

“You’ve had a tough time these past few days, but my uncle didn’t do anything like that. He’s been released now, and they haven’t found anything out.”

“Even if nothing is found, people won’t stop talking about it. Unless there’s a turning point in this matter, and Uncle can produce some evidence to win the case against Qi Yu, even if he’s reinstated, people will still say that someone is manipulating him behind the scenes, and he’ll never be able to shake off the label of traitor.”

Bai Shibao was simple-minded and believed that the innocent would clear themselves and that the rumors would eventually disappear.
