Deputy Commander Ye gritted his teeth and said, "Then you don't need to go. Not only will you not see any jokes, but you will become a joke to others tomorrow."
Jiang Mei was stunned and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
Deputy Commander Ye seemed to have lost all his strength. He slowly sat down on the sofa, one hand weakly supporting his head, and the other hand tiredly pinched his eyebrows. Then he said, "Qin Zhen's problem has been thoroughly investigated, and he has no problems.
Qin Anning's car was also specially approved by the organization for use because of her great contributions.
Just now, Commander Zhu announced the news in front of everyone.
Because the impact of this incident is too bad, those who create trouble and spread rumors will be severely punished and will not be tolerated.
Tomorrow, the penalty decision will be posted on the notice board.
Not to mention you, even I will be punished. Are you satisfied now?"
Deputy Commander Ye's voice was filled with helplessness and frustration. He regretted it deeply and wished he could turn back time.
If I hadn't been soft-hearted and let Jiang Hong stay, this series of troubles wouldn't have happened.
Unfortunately, no matter how much I regret it now, it’s of no use.
Jiang Mei hadn't anticipated this. She clutched Deputy Commander Ye's hand tightly, her eyes filled with anxiety. "It's my fault. Why should I punish you? How can you get a promotion if you're punished?"
She shook her head like crazy, her voice sharp, "No, I'm going to find Commander Zhu. I'll take all the punishments. You can punish me in any way you want, but you can't be punished." After saying that, she hurriedly walked out.
"Come back here!" Deputy Commander Ye practically roared, his voice filled with suppressed anger and endless fatigue. "You still think you haven't made enough trouble? No matter how much I tried to persuade you, you wouldn't listen. What's the point of getting anxious now?"
"But it's just a few gossips, it happens in the compound before, why is the punishment so severe this time?
Besides, you have nothing to do with this, so why should I give you a warning?"
Jiang Mei's tears fell down, and she gritted her teeth and said, "It's all Qin Zhen and Qin Anning's fault. I don't know what kind of magic potion they fed Commander Zhu to make him so partial to them."
Deputy Commander Ye lowered his head and said nothing. He also believed that the reason why the punishment was so severe this time must be because of Qin Zhen.
People outside may not know this, but he knows that Qin Zhen has made great contributions in this matter of Deputy Minister Wang. Perhaps Qin Zhen took this opportunity to make a request to Commander Zhu.
Qin Zhen was too petty! As a result of this incident, not only the family members were punished, but also the officers of the army suffered.
What good would he gain from doing this? It would only make everyone unhappy with him.
The more Deputy Commander Ye thought about it, the more he felt that Qin Zhen's behavior was not right. However, his family was also involved in this matter, so he couldn't say much even if he was dissatisfied.
He said irritably, "That's enough! Stop talking nonsense. Tomorrow I'll definitely ask you to apologize to Qin Zhen and Qin An Ning. Even if you're just pretending, be sincere and don't cause me any more trouble."
"What? They're asking me to apologize?" Jiang Mei's voice suddenly became unusually sharp and piercing. "They've hurt Xiaohong like that. Why should I apologize to them?"
"From now on, don't mention the name Jiang Hong in front of me! If it weren't for her, how could so many troubles arise? How could I be punished?" Deputy Commander Ye finally couldn't hold back his inner anger. He roared and slammed the door and left.
Jiang Mei was heartbroken and cried bitterly at home.
At this time, in another building, Qin Anning excitedly pulled Qin Zhen aside and asked him all sorts of questions. She had too many questions about this matter.
"Dad, do you know those two investigators?"
After hearing his daughter's words, Qin Zhen looked at her in surprise. "Not many people know about this. How did you find out?"
Qin An Ning covered her mouth and laughed secretly, "I guessed it right."
She raised her eyebrows proudly and spoke of her observations and analysis with great enthusiasm, "Although those two looked serious, they were actually very gentle towards me.
Even when they came to search my house, they were extremely careful, and the things they found were not illegal at all. I just explained a few things casually, and they stopped asking questions.
They told me to cooperate with the investigation at any time, but in reality, they never contacted me again. From their behavior and attitude, I boldly speculated that they might have some kind of relationship with my father.
After hearing Qin Anning's well-reasoned inference, Qin Zhen smiled and nodded, jokingly saying, "It seems their disguise skills are still not up to par. Next time we meet, I'm going to make fun of them."
Mentioning Lin Lihui and Qu Zhenggang, Qin Zhen's eyes were filled with nostalgia. He said with emotion, "They were indeed my former comrades-in-arms. At that time, we carried out missions together and fought side by side. There was an unbreakable trust between us. We could trust each other with our backs and even our lives.
Later, due to job changes, we separated and our contact with each other gradually became less and less. I didn't expect that this time they would come to me on their own initiative after seeing the report letter."
"Then when the two uncles have time someday, invite them to our courtyard for dinner. I will personally cook a few delicious dishes for them to express my gratitude and let you guys catch up on the past."
It’s better not to come here, lest others know that they know Dad and spread all kinds of messy rumors.
"By the way, Dad, how did you guys get here so timely just now?"
Qin Zhen's relaxed expression suddenly faded, his brows slightly furrowed, and he looked at Qin An Ning with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes, "Didn't I already tell you that I can handle this matter?
Why did you fight with them and hurt yourself? "
Facing Qin Zhen's questioning, Qin Anning felt a little guilty. She subconsciously shrank her neck and whispered in defense, "Well... I didn't want to pay attention to them at first, but they were really too much. What they said about you and mom was too unpleasant, so I... I couldn't help it..."
Qin Zhen's cold voice came, "So you planned to fight with them and hurt yourself on purpose?"
