Grandma Qi was taken aback when she heard this.
"Did he go to Taiwan with Chairman Chiang?" Grandma Qi asked incredulously. "He's just a low-level employee, how could he be involved in this?"
He Tiantian knew these things in her past life, which is why she dared to say such things.
“My father isn’t sure either; he just heard the news. As you know, relations between the two sides are tense right now. My dad wants to investigate further, but because of our overseas connections, our family has been under investigation and can’t continue. We can only wait for an opportunity,” He Tiantian said. “Besides, this news might not be true. My parents didn’t dare tell you, afraid of disappointing you.”
Grandma Qi clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and prayed devoutly: "I pray to the gods to bless my son, I pray to the gods to bless my son. I have never done anything wrong in my life, God will surely treat my son well."
When Grandma Qi opened her eyes again, those beautiful eyes were full of life once more!
“Grandma, hang in there. The relationship between the two sides will be reconciled sooner or later. There were many similar cases back then. Some children went there with them, and some elders went there, causing countless families to be separated. As long as those people are alive, they will think about going home,” He Tiantian said, holding Grandma Qi’s hand tightly.
She knew that Grandma Qi had recovered.
This is the power of the spirit, the support of belief!
"I can hold on." Grandma Qi nodded, her smile no longer forced, her eyes no longer empty.
Seeing Grandma Qi's condition, He Tiantian was completely relieved.
I boiled water, helped Grandma Qi wash up, and then helped her to bed.
He Tiantian was also very tired today. After this incident, He Tiantian asked the Snake King to create a barrier every time she went to sleep.
Otherwise, He Tiantian wouldn't be able to sleep!
In Qijia Village these past few days, besides He Tiantian and others being anxious, Qi Jianguo's entire family has also been living in constant turmoil.
After failing to find a solution in the village, Qi Shuli and Qi Shuwang could only pin their hopes on their relatives in the county town.
Qi Jianguo's aunt, after hearing Qi's mother's exaggerated account, concluded that Qi Jianguo had been seduced by He Tiantian, which led him to do such a thing. Therefore, Qi Jianguo's aunt's family began to help him with bribery and other favors.
After using all the connections I could, I finally made some progress.
But the result was very disappointing. The evidence was conclusive, and the two girls refused to settle. Qi Jianguo was going to be sentenced.
This time, Qi Jiaren finally realized the seriousness of the situation.
Old Mrs. Qi was cursing and swearing at home, but she didn't dare to go to He Tiantian's or Qi San's grandmother's place to curse.
Qi's mother wept constantly, her face streaked with tears.
Qi Fangfang was filled with anxiety and regret. She deeply regretted not stopping her brother, and even more so for not telling her parents about her brother's thoughts, which led him down the wrong path. At the same time, she hated Qi Xiaoyan and He Tiantian even more.
The Qi family was filled with gloom, and Qi Jianguo finally woke up in the commune hospital!
He Tiantian's big stick was quite powerful, but it didn't hit any vital spots. Her face was bruised and swollen, which looked scary, but it wouldn't cause permanent damage.
He had been unconscious and slurring his speech because the Snake King had used some tricks.
Three days later, Qi Jianguo finally woke up. His injuries had healed considerably, and he was able to speak again.
When the police learned that Qi Jianguo had woken up, they came to take his statement.
Although Qi Jianguo was unable to speak and remained in a deep sleep, his mind was still capable of thinking.
The current situation is very unfavorable for him.
With irrefutable evidence and witnesses, he was caught red-handed and there was no way to refute it.
The only way to reduce his chances of conviction is to smear He Tiantian, saying that she seduced him and asked him to meet her that night.
Whether the police station believes him or not depends on his actions!
"Qi Jianguo, you are suspected of attempted rape. Can you speak now? We need to take your statement!" a police officer said, staring intently at Qi Jianguo.
Although Qi Jianguo had bruises on his face, he looked good. Moreover, they knew that Qi Jianguo was educated and skilled, and he could find any woman he wanted. Why would he break into a house and rape someone?
Upon hearing this, Qi Jianguo was stunned and his face showed fear.
“No…that’s not it…that’s not it,” Qi Jianguo retorted, having already thought of this answer many times in his mind.
Seeing this, Officer Wu suspected there was more to the story and asked, "What are you doing climbing over the wall to the room of an unmarried educated youth in the middle of the night, instead of staying at home?"
Qi Jianguo said urgently, "I'm innocent! It wasn't my idea to go; He Tiantian invited me. I admit I pursued He Tiantian before, but she was lukewarm towards me and kept me hanging on. It was the night before that day that He Tiantian invited me, so I went."
"Do you have any witnesses?" Officer Wu asked. It's dark outside, and even if someone invites you, a decent person wouldn't go!
Qi Jianguo smiled wryly and said aggrievedly, "No, young men and women always get along secretly. They're too busy hiding from others to date in front of them!"
"Since that's the case, then tell me, when did He Tiantian ask you out?" Officer Wu asked, taking notes of Qi Jianguo's words in his notebook.
Qi Jianguo thought for a moment and said, "The night she returned to Qijia Village."
"Specific date?"
"The nineteenth day of the first lunar month!"
"Specific time?"
"10 PM!"
This is Qi Jianguo's speculation.
When He Tiantian returned to the village that day, it was already very late, so she went to bed early and no one else was there.
In this way, He Tiantian could not find any witnesses to prove that Qi Jianguo did not go.
Officer Wu asked a few more questions, wrote them down one by one, and then placed the notebook in front of Qi Jianguo, saying, "Take a look yourself. If there are no problems, then sign it. If what you said is false, it will be an additional crime!"
Qi Jianguo didn't take it seriously; even now, he wasn't afraid anymore.
Willing to risk everything, even to the point of pulling the emperor off his horse.
This time, Qi Jianguo is determined to ruin He Tiantian's reputation!
What he cannot have, he will not let anyone else have!
"I'm telling the truth, there's not a single lie in it," Qi Jianguo assured him, glancing at the notes in the notebook and writing his name down.
"We'll investigate whether it's true or not," Officer Wu said. "You should get some rest. You can't leave Taoyuan County for the time being. We can make sure we can contact you anytime."
Qi Jianguo cursed inwardly, "Are those two policemen at the door blind?! Where can he run to?!"
"Yes, yes, I believe the police. The country will give me justice and clear my name," Qi Jianguo said righteously, resolutely refusing to admit his crimes.
Qi Jianguo was a shrewd man; he knew that with current investigative methods, it was difficult to obtain conclusive evidence. Sometimes, a little thought could lead to a breakthrough. This was what Zhou Sihai had told him, so he was determined to persevere this time.
Confess and you'll be treated leniently, or you'll rot in jail!
Resistance will be met with severe punishment, with a maximum of six months! (To be continued.)
