Jiang Qiao didn't know where she should eat dinner, and since Song Shutian wasn't coming over, she simply went to the cafeteria with the others.

Unfortunately, they heard arguing halfway there. It seemed that the sentry had blocked someone's way and angered them.

In particular, she also heard the other person mention her name, and it seemed inappropriate for her not to go over.

"What's going on? Who's arguing?"

The comrade from the work group next to him frowned and said, "What are they trying to do? Don't they have any discipline or rules?"

Just as Jiang Qiao was about to move over, Song Shutian called out to her from afar.

"Jiang Qiao—"

Upon hearing Jiang Qiao's name, the shouts from the people outside became even more intense.

"Jiang Qiao, get out here right now! If you've got the guts, come at us brothers! What's the meaning of detaining my sister and mother? Get out here now!"

"How dare you! Whose house is this?"

The young soldier next to him quickly reported, "Reporting to the commander, it's Feng Lan's brothers who came over to talk to Jiang Qiao and demand that we hand over Feng Lan and their mother."

Song Shutian waved his hand and said, "Tell them to go back quickly. Their mother will be released soon. Tell them to wait outside. If they dare to make any more noise, we'll deal with them according to the rules."

"yes--"

Now that someone has taken over, Jiang Qiao isn't in a hurry to go and resolve the matter. She still needs to observe those people and wants to get some clues from them.

With this side taking a hard line, even if the Feng brothers wanted to cause trouble, they had to consider the consequences.

Their sister and mother have been detained. If they cause a ruckus, they might not get away with it either. Besides, they have families to support. What will happen to their wives and children if something happens to them?

Therefore, to resolve this matter, they had to find another way, so they turned around and went to find Feng Lan's godfather.

I heard that several people came today, and they are different from the working group. They have a very tough attitude. Otherwise, they wouldn't have given her sister a hard time on their first day.

Upon seeing the Feng brothers arrive, the secretary's wife said directly to them, "Sigh, your uncle hasn't come back yet. He said he has a meeting tonight, so we'll talk about it when he gets back."

It would be a lie for the Party Secretary's wife to say she had no opinion about the Feng family's children. They had helped this orphaned mother and children quite a bit back then. But look at what the Feng family's children have become now. Not only are they all unruly, but even the girl doesn't look like a girl.

However, out of consideration for her husband, she didn't say too much. In fact, she rarely had any contact with this family.

She had heard about Feng Lan's situation during the day. Given her status and position, any rumors would have been whispered in her ear long ago. After all, she was her husband's goddaughter. If something happened to that girl, it would be fine if it went well, but if it went badly, it would surely cause a lot of trouble.

After seeing off the Feng brothers, the secretary's wife entered the house in a huff, grumbling at the secretary who was sitting in the study.

"Look at this, it's all your fault. Why did you have to take on this goddaughter? Now look what happened, you're the one who's suffering the consequences."

I told you before, we can help each other out, but let's not get involved in any messy things. Look, now that Feng Lan is in trouble, who knows what everyone is thinking about you behind your back.”

Secretary Tian Zhenghe also looked helpless. "Who would have thought that their children would cause such a commotion? If I had known, I wouldn't have recognized them as godparents. I did this in the first place to avoid misunderstandings. Sigh, never mind, let's not talk about this anymore."

I refuse to see anyone they send; nothing good comes of it.

The secretary's wife leaned close to her husband mysteriously and said, "Old Tian, ​​I heard that the people who came this time are quite influential. They say there's a woman who's particularly powerful and doesn't give face to anyone. Just who is she?"

Tian Zhenghe looked at his wife with a serious expression and said, "Let me tell you, don't ask around anymore. I have heard of this woman before. Jiang Qiao, do you remember her? She was in the newspaper back then."

I told you back then, whoever raised such a capable girl, that girl has grown up now, and this is the one who came this time.

I just don't know why they didn't go through us and came directly to arrest people. They must already have some leads. So, just do your normal things and don't overthink it. We have nothing to hide.

The secretary's wife sighed, "That's what they say, but privately, quite a few people are saying today that Zhao Anbang is fine, so the problem probably lies with you and Lao Ge. Why were you two not home at that time?"

Tell me, what exactly happened here? Before, I was glad you weren't there, otherwise I would have been caught in the crossfire.

Regardless of who did it, the data has been destroyed, and they certainly can't escape responsibility for this dereliction of duty.

But now that I've heard the documents have been recovered, and Zhao Anbang is fine, it seems like it's your turn to investigate now.

Tian Zhenghe snorted, "I have a clear conscience. Let them investigate however they want. I didn't think about it much before, but now, no matter how I think about it, I feel like something is not quite right."

The secretary's wife looked at her husband with a nervous expression. "Is there something wrong with that Ge Huaili? I was wondering why he had to take leave to go home at that time. Isn't this getting you into trouble? You were the one who approved the leave. If they ask you about it, we'll be in trouble even if we're not.

Tian Zhenghe glared at his wife and said, "How old are you? Why don't you think before you speak? Did I say that Lao Ge has a problem?"

He submitted his leave request a long time ago. He had planned to go back to his hometown before anything happened. It was just a coincidence. We don't know what the enemy was trying to do. Why did they have to do this when neither of us was around?

"Ugh, this is so worrying! What do these people from up here mean? They won't even see us. What's the deal? Do they suspect us?"

"Really? Didn't you say that girl was quite capable, that she came over and arrested people right away, and even found Old Zhao? There's no way we could be suspected in this."

Yes, we were godparents when Feng Lan was a child, but ever since that woman remarried, we haven't kept in touch much. At most, we've helped her family's children find jobs or something.

That Feng Lan, do you ever see me looking after her? She's always acting crazy, she doesn't act like a girl at all. Didn't you try to persuade her? Who can she blame but she won't listen?

Over the years, we've taken care of everything we could, and we've done our duty to her deceased father. Now that her mother has remarried, this matter is truly no longer our concern.

Besides, Zhao Anbang is now in their hands. Sigh, I'm not exaggerating, Lao Tian, ​​you can't control this, you can't get involved. When the higher-ups call you in for a talk, don't act like you're guilty.
