On the other side, Liu Dahua ran out in a rage, heading straight for the field, shouting as she ran.

The commune's inspection team hadn't even left yet, and suddenly, not only the entire brigade but even the commune's leaders heard about it.

"What's going on, Captain Li?!"

Li Tiejun was also completely baffled, not knowing what Liu Dahua was up to!

"Secretary Li, please don't worry, let me ask about the situation first!"

Panting, Liu Dahua ran up to him, only to be immediately stopped by Li Tiejun.

"Liu Dahua, what's wrong with you? Why are you shouting like that!"

"B-Captain...I...I didn't shout anything..."

"Alright, catch your breath before you speak!"

"Huff...huff..."

After catching her breath for about a minute, Liu Dahua finally recovered. She had run too fast, and at her age, she couldn't take it anymore!

"Captain, Guihua and I escorted Zhai Zhiqing back home and found Li Hongwei having an affair with a woman at home. We caught them in the act."

Also, I saw bruises on Zhai Zhiqing's body, and I suspect she was a victim of domestic violence by Li Hongwei!

Liu Dahua didn't lower her voice, and everyone around her could hear her clearly.

Secretary Li also had some impression of Liu Dahua, as she was one of the victims of the domestic violence incident years ago.

Now, everyone could understand her excitement.

"Captain Li! The situation is unusual; we'll go with you to take a look!"

Li Changhai was terrified that something like what happened a few years ago would happen again. If it did, he could forget about being the Party Secretary.

"Sister-in-law Zheng, could you please show me the way?"

"Okay, okay! Secretary Li, come with me!"

Liu Dahua ignored Li Tiejun at this moment and was focused on taking Secretary Li to deal with Li Hongwei. Three years ago, not being able to save her daughter was her lifelong regret.

She was determined to help Zhai Qiaoyun escape her misery today, which was also a way of fulfilling her own wish.

Secretary Li followed Liu Dahua, and Li Tiejun naturally wouldn't lag behind. A large group of them headed towards Li Hongwei's house.

Just then, Jiang Xile said to Su Jinxiu:

"Sister Jinxiu, I overheard something just now. Do you think it might be that Duan Nianzhen had an accident? She didn't come to work today!"

"You and I are thinking the same thing! No, we have to go and see what's going on, otherwise the reputation of the educated youth might be ruined!"

"Does everyone have to go? What if the battalion commander doesn't want them to?"

Hearing this, Su Jinxiu paused for a moment, then frowned and said:

"Even if the battalion commander is unwilling, there's nothing we can do. I'll go and call Guo Dongxu first, since he's the squad leader!"

"Alright, I'll notify the others nearby. More people means more things will be easier!"

"Um!"

Before long, Su Jinxiu had summoned all the male educated youth over, with Guo Dongxu, the ward leader, in the lead.

After all the educated youth gathered together, they walked together toward Li Hongwei's house.

As soon as they stepped outside the courtyard, they heard a noisy commotion and crying inside. The group paused for a moment, then quickened their pace.

"Captain, Secretary Li!"

Upon seeing the person who had arrived, Li Tiejun frowned.

"What are you doing here instead of working?!"

"Captain, no matter what, Zhai Zhiqing is still a member of our educated youth settlement. If something happens to her, we should naturally help her out!"

"You're here to help Zhai, the educated youth. What about Duan?"

Everyone looked in the direction Li Tiejun was pointing, and there Duan Nianzhen was kneeling next to Li Hongwei.

At that moment, without needing to say anything more, everyone understood what was going on!

"Captain, I think there must be some misunderstanding here. Duan Zhiqing has always been a good girl. Maybe Li Hongwei coerced her, which is why things turned out this way!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Who coerced her? She clearly came with me willingly!"

Li Hongwei flew into a rage upon hearing Guo Dongxu's words and spoke up before Duan Nianzhen could.

"No, no, it was him, he raped me!"

Once she realized what had happened, Duan Nianzhen immediately shifted the blame to Li Hongwei. At this point, the only way for her to extricate herself from the situation was to make herself the victim.

“Secretary Li, Captain, I’m telling the truth! He drugged me and forced himself on me during a dinner party.”

He then used this to blackmail me, forcing me to submit to him! I am truly innocent!

Secretary Li, Captain, you have to stand up for me! It's all this beast's fault, this scoundrel's fault! He ruined me! Waaah...

Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze towards Li Hongwei noticeably changed, and the women's director was also extremely angry.

"Secretary Li, such scum must be dealt with seriously to uphold discipline!"

"Director Liu is right, this must be dealt with seriously!"

Li Hongwei didn't expect Duan Nianzhen to turn around and bite him at this moment, so he panicked.

"No, it's not like she said... She did it willingly... Captain... Captain, please save me, save me!"

"Li Hongwei, I have spoken to you more than once, hoping that you can work hard and live a good life."

It was one thing for you to be lazy and gluttonous before, but now you dare to break the law and violate the rules. I hope you remember this lesson, mend your ways, and start anew!

Clearly, Duan Nianzhen's words are more credible than Li Hongwei's.

Otherwise, no one could understand how Duan Nianzhen, a perfectly good young woman, could be so blind as to get involved with Li Hongwei.

If it was due to coercion, then that makes sense.
