Wu Xiuping's family lived in the factory dormitory. Zhao Yunxiang had instructed Wu Xiuping to keep an eye on Gu Hongxing and Gu Xiaofang. Therefore, when Gu Hongxing and his sister got into trouble, Wu Xiuping was the most anxious. She felt she had betrayed Zhao Yunxiang's trust, so she rushed to call the police.

"Who took Xiaoxing and Xiaofang away? How could this happen?" Zhao Yunxiang was stunned. Gu Hongxing and Gu Xiaofang had lived here for over three years. Perhaps because they were living under someone else's roof, the two siblings had always been well-behaved and very sensible. Every time the accountant asked them to collect their living expenses, the two children would say "thank you" to the accountant. When they met workers they knew on the road, the two children would also greet them sweetly with "uncle" and "auntie". At school, Gu Hongxing and his friends would not argue with other students. After school, the siblings would go to the cafeteria to help wash vegetables and dishes. These ten-year-olds were so sensible that it made Zhao Yunxiang feel sad.

How could anyone be willing to harm two children and even break into a factory?

The Yunyun Garment Factory was well-known in the neighborhood. Officially, everyone knew Zhao Yunxiang's identity, and no one dared to come to the factory to "take bribes." Privately, the local thugs had been warned by their "big brother" not to cause trouble at the Yunyun Garment Factory. As a result, the Yunyun Garment Factory had always had good security. This was the first time someone had broken into the factory.

"Mr. Zhao, according to witnesses in your factory, when the children were taken away, they cried out, 'We don't have a father like you'. Therefore, we preliminarily determined that the person who took the two children away was their father, Gutiezhu." Only then did Xu Zhiyuan find the opportunity to explain his purpose.

"Huh?" Zhao Yunxiang cried out in shock. Gu Tiezhu broke into the factory at night just to take his children away? But hadn't Gu Tiezhu been here yesterday? Gu Hongxing and Gu Xiaofang had already refused to go with him!

Xu Zhiyuan sighed inwardly. He and General Zhou's granddaughter-in-law's family truly had a connection. A few years ago, while working at the Gongqiao Public Security Bureau, he'd followed up on the kidnapping of Zhao Yu, the Zhao family's grandson. This year, having just been transferred to Shilitun, he'd encountered the case of someone being abducted at night from Zhao Yunxiang's factory. How could all this excitement be tied to the Zhao family?

Although he was complaining in his heart, the expression on Xu Zhiyuan's face was impeccable. He was just a small police officer. After more than ten years, he was still a small deputy section-level police officer. There was no need for him to offend an entrepreneur like Zhao Yunxiang who had "backers".

"Mr. Zhao, do you think we can talk while walking? There are a lot of shoe prints on the ground outside the wall. We have just identified that there are at least three adults. The preliminary estimate is that it was a gang crime. We now need to go into the factory to collect footprints and other information for comparison. I hope Mr. Zhao can give you a favor." Xu Zhiyuan gestured to the workers coming in and out of the door.

It was almost time for work, and the workers in the industrial zone were rushing to their jobs. The entrance to the Yunyun Garment Factory was quite crowded. Not to mention the several police cars parked there, which was quite conspicuous. Many workers, unsure of the truth, were already watching and whispering among themselves.

"Please come in, Public Security Officer Xu. Assisting with the investigation is our responsibility," Zhao Yunxiang immediately realized. It wasn't convenient to discuss these matters at the gate, with so many people and so many gossips.

With Zhao Yunxiang leading the way, Xu Zhiyuan and several police officers walked into the Yunyun Garment Factory with their chests puffed out. This time, the old man guarding the door just glanced at them and didn't come over to stop them, which made Xu Zhiyuan and the others breathe a sigh of relief.

Zhao Yunxiang noticed the distinct exhalations of Xu Zhiyuan and the others, and suddenly realized what was happening. No wonder she'd been wondering why Xu Zhiyuan and his men were waiting at the factory gate even though they were investigating a case. They'd been stopped by the security guard. The security guard at the Yunyun Garment Factory was known for his toughness in the area.

"Stubborn" and "inhuman" are the words used to describe Yunyun's security guard.

The Yunyun Garment Factory's security rules include a clause stating that "No personnel other than those associated with the company's business are allowed inside." Yunyun's security guards enforce this rule very effectively. During non-working hours, workers who don't live in the factory dormitories are not allowed to enter the factory, let alone outsiders.

Zhao Yunxiang could tell from the expressions of Xu Zhiyuan and the others that they were definitely stopped outside the gate by the security guard.

But this is the police! The security guard is really fierce. Even the police dared to stop him.

If the security guard knew how Zhao Yunxiang was thinking of him, he would definitely puff out his chest and say proudly, "That's right! Don't you see where we come from? What are the police afraid of? As long as the regulations are in place, no one can stop us!"

The security guards at Yunyun Garment Factory are all retired veterans. They are all very stubborn and only care about rules and not people.

Xu Zhiyuan was almost injured by the security guard's stubbornness.

With Zhao Yunxiang leading the way, the security guard would definitely not stop her again. Zhao Yunxiang was Yunyun's best pass.

After entering the factory, Wu Xiuping returned to the workshop. She had already reported everything she needed to, so she had no choice but to wait for Zhao Yunxiang to handle the rest. While several officers were busy collecting evidence, Xu Zhiyuan followed Zhao Yunxiang to her office to learn more about Gutiezhu. For them, learning more about the parties involved would help them make an accurate assessment of the incident.

"Mr. Zhao, according to what the workers at your factory said, it seems the person who took Gu Hongxing and Gu Xiaofang away was their father, Gu Tiezhu. With all due respect, a father taking his own children doesn't even warrant a police report." Xu Zhiyuan was somewhat dissatisfied with the case. A family dispute had escalated to the point of calling the police. If every family did the same, how would the police have the energy to handle it?

"Xu Gongan, I think this isn't just about the father taking the child away. What about the unauthorized breaking into the factory in the middle of the night?" Zhao Yunxiang frowned, somewhat dissatisfied with Xu Zhiyuan's attitude. Somehow, Zhao Yunxiang felt as if Xu Zhiyuan had something against her. From the moment he appeared until now, Xu Zhiyuan's attitude had seemed distant.

When Zhao Yunxiang does business, she follows all the rules. Although she has backers, she has never relied on anyone, okay?

It wasn't that Xu Zhiyuan didn't realize his attitude was a little off, but he couldn't help it. After the Shilitun Public Security Bureau received the report, before Xu Zhiyuan even left, he was called in by the director and given a lecture. The director told Xu Zhiyuan to treat the case seriously, saying that even though it was a small case, it involved "Yunyun," so even a small case should be treated as a big one. And so on and so forth.

Xu Zhiyuan was dissatisfied with the director's actions, and inadvertently brought it to his attitude towards Zhao Yunxiang.
