After listening to Li Guochao's report, Deputy Director Niu sat down on the chair and said absentmindedly: "What's going on... Bring An Hua's file over so I can have a look!"

Li Guochao: "Leader, the Human Resources Department is controlled by Director Zhao. Now you and him... it will probably be difficult to transfer here."

Deputy Director Niu gritted his teeth. It seemed that in order to gain full control of the power, he had to completely defeat Zhao.

Li Guochao glanced at his leader's expression and said, "I looked at his work permit and marriage certificate. An Hua's husband is Commander Xiao. There should be no doubt about it."

Deputy Director Niu slammed the table and asked his daughter, "What's your response?!"

Niu Shuli was startled and muttered, "Why are you so fierce? How should I know how to respond..."

Deputy Director Niu was overwhelmed by his daughter and no longer had any hope for her. He said directly to Li Guochao, "Find out the truth and give an explanation to Commander Xiao."

How do we investigate this...Isn’t Niu Shuli the culprit? It was she who said that someone was having an affair and shouted that she wanted to catch the adulterer.

Li Guochao racked his brains for a long time and said, "Leader, I think the problem lies with Geng Biao..."

Before he could finish his words, Niu Shuli snatched them away, "Yes, it was Geng Biao from the Security Department. He was the one who said that An Hua and her adulterer were having a tryst by the river!"

Deputy Director Niu thought for a while and said, "Don't mention it, this guy is really suspicious... Go and call him over."

Geng Biao came over.

Deputy Director Niu stared at him solemnly, "It was you who gave me the information about An Huazhi and her lover having a tryst by the river, right?"

Geng Biao's expression remained unchanged. "I never said anything like adulterous. It was Liu Meng who said that."

Li Guochao frowned, "So, you know that An Hua and the independent division's commander Xiao are a couple?"

Geng Biao nodded.

Niu Shuli said angrily: "Then why don't you say it?"

Geng Biao: "You didn't ask."

Niu Shuli choked.

Deputy Director Niu looked unhappy. "Geng Biao, I promoted you. Don't forget your roots."

Geng Biao smiled, "I haven't forgotten my roots. It was precisely because I wanted to repay Deputy Director Niu for his help that I went back to ask An Huazhi and Commander Xiao when they were planning to have a 'tryst'. That's how I got the information."

Deputy Director Niu: “…What did you say??”

Geng Biao recounted the entire story.

The third brother said that he wanted to let Deputy Director Niu know that this pit was dug specifically for him.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Deputy Director Niu broke out in a cold sweat.

Niu Shuli also understood, "An Hua did it on purpose!"

Deputy Director Niu scolded: "Shut up!"

After a while, Deputy Director Niu looked up and stared at Geng Biao, "What is your relationship with Commander Xiao?"

Geng Biao: "Oh, I'm his brother-in-law."

Niu Shuli exclaimed: "Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

Geng Biao: "You didn't ask."

The other three people in the room: "......"

Why didn’t I realize before that Geng Biao was so good at fighting?

Deputy Director Niu forced himself to calm down.

Although he was not familiar with Xiao Zheng, he still knew something about Xiao Zheng's past. At such a young age, he became the head of an independent division and was also elected as the chairman of the county revolutionary committee... He must have an extraordinary mind and methods.

Xiao Zheng vaguely told him through Geng Biao that the other party already held a grudge against him.

Deputy Director Niu glared at his daughter angrily and said, "You are the one who caused all this trouble for me!"

Niu Shuli was fearless and even advised her father, "What are you afraid of? Our food factory is a major state-owned factory. The factory director and the county magistrate are at the same level. Why should the army control us?"

Deputy Director Niu was very disappointed, "What a fool! What time is it now? Can you use common sense to look at the situation? Besides, even if the army doesn't directly manage us, it's good to offend Xiao Zheng?"

Niu Shuli was not convinced. She thought that An Hua was really lucky. The man she found was not only not a veteran cadre, but also quite capable.

Deputy Director Niu was worried and thinking, Xiao Zheng said that he would hold someone accountable, so he must give him an excuse.

Deputy Director Niu looked at Geng Biao. Since Geng Biao and Xiao Zheng were relatives, Geng Biao could not be made to take the blame.

Niu Shuli is his precious daughter, and he will protect her no matter how big a mistake she makes.

Then...only Li Guochao is left.

Li Guochao spent all day trying to figure out what Deputy Director Niu was thinking. He could guess almost everything about Deputy Director Niu's movements and expressions. Now... Li Guochao's heart gradually sank. It seemed that the man surnamed Niu was planning to put the blame on him.

"lead......"

Deputy Director Niu raised his hand and interrupted Li Guochao. "I know what you want to say, Guochao. I can't help it... Just bear with it. I will remember your contribution and make it up to you in the future."

Make up for it!

Li Guochao bit his back teeth.

The guy named Niu didn't even try to fight for it, and just pushed him out to take the blame. We can't even rely on him now, so how can we expect him to be nice to us in the future?

Heartless and ungrateful!

However, Li Guochao has no good way to extricate himself for the time being, after all, he is the leader of the team that caught the adulterer.

"Leader..." Li Guochao tried hard to hold back a few tears, "It doesn't matter. It's also my fault that I didn't carefully identify the information given by Niu Shuli and Liu Meng. I have the responsibility..."

Deputy Director Niu was really moved to see that Li Guochao was so sensible. He said "good" several times and finally patted Li Guochao's shoulder heavily, saying nothing.

Li Guochao appeared to be loyal, but in fact he cursed Deputy Director Niu to death in his heart.

This old guy, don't let him catch you...

Li Guochao abused his power to frame military personnel and their families, but fortunately it did not cause irreparable consequences, so he was only demoted and given a warning.

Niu Shuli did not completely escape and wrote a self-criticism.

"Are you satisfied now?" An Hua looked at Xiao Zheng with a smile.

Xiao Zheng snorted, "They slandered me for being old and said that we were cheating on each other... I just took a small revenge, but it's nothing."

"You have a narrow mind." An Hua finished speaking, and then laughed, "But I'm not narrow-minded either."

Xiao Zheng's revenge was bold and her tactics were more sinister.

It's quite uncomfortable to be stared at all day, so I have to find something interesting for the couple to do.
