A committee member who had been silent all along suddenly stood up, his voice carrying the distinctive strength of a soldier.
"Comrade Shen Huaichuan was on a special mission during that time, I can testify to that! His whereabouts are traceable! This child absolutely cannot be Shen Huaichuan!"
He looked at Shen Huaichuan with absolute trust in his eyes.
"Furthermore, I believe that as a soldier, Shen Huaichuan would never do anything dishonorable to a soldier's honor before marriage!"
All eyes, like countless red-hot branding irons, instantly focused on Lin Yao, who was slumped on the ground.
They all knew in their hearts that since the child wasn't Shen Huaichuan's, it must be Xu Shu's.
Lin Yao became pregnant with Xu Shu's child three months ago, which means the two of them had been having an affair for a long time.
Then everything makes sense.
The truth is—that so-called "catching someone in the act" was planned by Lin Yao herself, with the aim of getting rid of Shen Huaichuan and being with Xu Shu openly!
Her actions today are undoubtedly a despicable farce of the thief crying "stop thief!" and framing someone!
Zhou Qiqi glanced at Lin Yao indifferently.
"The one who truly ruined military marriages is not me, Zhou Qiqi, but you, Lin Yao!"
Her words became the final straw that broke the camel's back.
The gazes directed at Lin Yao were no longer filled with sympathy, but rather with anger and contempt.
"No—! It's fake! It's fake!"
Lin Yao's rationality completely collapsed. She let out a shrill scream and, like a madwoman, lunged at Zhou Qiqi without regard for anything else, her target the piece of paper.
"You forged this! You've framed me!! You couldn't possibly have this disposal order!"
The guard next to her reacted quickly, grabbing her with his large, iron-like hand and pinning her to the spot.
thump!
Lin Yao was slammed to the ground by a tremendous force, her body limp as mud, her eyes unfocused and empty, and all that could be left from her mouth was unconscious, neurotic muttering.
"It's fake...it's all fake...it's not mine...it's not me..."
The last line of defense has completely collapsed.
Xu Shuze's face turned ashen, and he trembled like a leaf in the autumn wind. A pungent smell of urine wafted from his crotch!
He stared in terror at Lin Yao's belly, then met the leader's furious gaze and Shen Huaichuan's icy stare that seemed to want to tear him apart. He was so frightened that his soul almost flew away!
"How...how did you know?!"
He pointed at Zhou Qiqi, his voice trembling uncontrollably.
"You were following us?! You've been plotting something all along, haven't you?!"
According to procedure, the disciplinary committee should have contacted the military hospital to verify the authenticity of the disciplinary order.
But the two men's guilty conscience made it clear to everyone that Lin Yao's pregnancy of more than three months was absolutely true.
Zhou Qiqi frowned in disgust, her voice as cold as an icy spring.
"I don't have that kind of free time. For the past two months, I've been accompanying Comrade Zhu Yingying to the hospital to prepare for pregnancy. The more I go, the more I naturally know."
I saw Lin Yao gagging when she went to the clinic before, and she didn't look like she had an upset stomach.
So it left a mark on her mind.
Two days ago at the hospital, I happened to see Xu Shu and Lin Yao arguing heatedly in a corner, so I quietly followed them.
This sheet fell right at their feet.
A mocking smile curled at the corner of her lips.
"Since nobody wanted it, I 'picked it up' to take a look. Heaven has eyes; whoever's debt is owed will eventually have to pay it!"
"Outrageous! Utterly shameless!"
The secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, who was sitting in the main seat, could no longer suppress his raging anger. He slammed his hand on the table with a loud bang, which made the teacups on the table jump!
His face was ashen, veins bulging on his forehead, and he pointed at the limp Lin Yao and the incontinent Xu Shu, his voice trembling with rage:
"Investigate! Investigate thoroughly! This is nothing short of a farce of the thief crying 'stop thief!' and framing! It wasn't Comrade Zhou Qiqi who ruined the military marriage, but rather this shameless, broken engagement, and adulterous couple! And false accusations! Perjury! Damaging the reputation of soldiers and their families! It's simply... simply a disgrace to the military region! They must not be let off lightly! Not a single one of them can be let off the hook!"
His sharp gaze swept across the entire room, and he sternly ordered, "Guards!"
"arrive!"
The soldiers standing at the entrance responded with thunderous shouts.
"Take these three scoundrels from the Xu family away! Keep them under strict guard! Await court-martial!"
"yes!"
Two guards rushed forward like tigers and wolves, dragging the limp and incontinent Lin Yao, the weak and incontinent Xu Shu, and Xu Zao who kept trying to crawl under the table from the ground, and carrying them out without any mercy.
The secretary's sharp gaze swept across the room, finally settling on Zhou Shuhua, whose face was ashen.
"And you, Comrade Zhou Shuhua!"
The secretary's voice was as deep and resonant as iron.
"A university professor, an elderly woman from a military dependents' area, is so easily swayed by biased opinions and unable to distinguish right from wrong! Bringing these three things to falsely accuse the family of a combat hero from our military region? Political Commissar Lei previously said you resigned as Women's Director due to poor health; I think you have a serious problem with your thinking! The organization will deal with your issues seriously!"
Zhou Shuhua felt as if she had been whipped hard, and her whole body shrank back suddenly.
Zhou Shuhua's face was ashen, her lips trembled, and her fingers gripped the hard wooden chair armrest so tightly that her nails were almost splitting, and her knuckles were pale and taut.
She dared not look at Shen Huaichuan, much less at Zhou Qiqi; her eyes were fixed straight ahead on her toes.
There was still a small puddle of urine left by Xu Shu there, the stench mingling with the stuffy air in the conference room, wafting straight into her nose.
My head was buzzing, and the world was spinning.
Her proudest "principle" and "keen insight" in life turned into a knife that stabbed her own people. This thought was like a venomous snake, gnawing at her internal organs bit by bit.
