257: Old Wu is here to back me up (2/2)



Deputy Secretary Chen was a little flustered and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"I came here on my own because of Comrade Wen Qiao's overseas connections, to verify something."

"Wen Qiao is my daughter. I'm getting married to Wen Qiao's mother, Ms. Lü, this week. I've invited Secretary Wang to my wedding. Xiao Chen, right? You can come too."

Deputy Secretary Chen nodded immediately, "Yes, yes, yes."

"Anything else?" Wu Yongliang snorted. "If not, then take your men and get out of here. Can't you see you have three young children? What are you trying to do?"

Speaking in a cold, authoritative voice, Deputy Secretary Chen raised his hand, and the group immediately left the Shen family's residence.

After Deputy Secretary Chen's men left, Wen Qiao came out from outside, looked at Zhao Minghan who was still there, and walked over.

"Brother Zhao, thank you so much for speaking up for me just now."

Wen Qiao wasn't stupid; she naturally knew that Zhao Minghan's words earlier were meant to help her.

Zhao Minghan, however, seemed very uncomfortable.

“I didn’t say much, I just told the truth. Wen Qiao, there are some things that are hard to say, but I brought Deputy Secretary Chen to your house, so I’m sorry to Ji Chuan for this.”

Shen Jichuan walked towards this side.

I happened to overhear Zhao Minghan's words.

He gestured for Wen Qiao to leave first, then turned to Zhao Minghan and said, "Old Zhao, you and I have never been enemies."

"I understand that this was something I couldn't control."

“I see clearly that you didn’t force Wen Qiao and me apart because of your own selfish desires. We will still be good comrades and good friends in the future.”

Zhao Minghan did some things, yet it seemed like she did nothing at all.

Zhao Minghan was afraid that Shen Jichuan would misunderstand, and he wanted to explain but didn't know how to explain it to him. Now, he hadn't explained anything, but Shen Jichuan, as his friend, said that he understood everything.

Zhao Minghan's eyes were a little moist as she reached out and patted Shen Jichuan's shoulder.

"Good buddy, I'll remember you for life."

"They're gone."

"Fortunately, Commander Wu came this time. I think Deputy Secretary Chen is quite afraid of Commander Wu. With Commander Wu here, you and Wen Qiao are safe this time."

Zhao Minghan left after she finished speaking.

Shen Jichuan watched him leave. At that moment, Zhou Xingchao arrived.

I greeted Zhao Minghan, but she didn't respond.

"This old Zhao..."

Zhou Xingchao looked at Shen Jichuan: "Has everything been resolved?"

Shen Jichuan said, "It's resolved. Thank you for having your sister-in-law wait for me on the road to deliver this message."

"What exactly happened? Has it been investigated?"

Shen Jichuan and Zhou Xingchao had been comrades-in-arms for many years, so there was no need to keep some things from each other. He chatted casually with Zhou Xingchao for a few minutes.

After hearing this, Zhou Xingchao said, "You mean, that extremely wealthy capitalist old man with assets of hundreds of millions is really Wen Qiao's grandfather?"

"The information we found is true. But Wen Qiao, and even Wen Qiao's father, have not been in contact with the old gentleman abroad."

“Investigating this matter won’t affect Wen Qiao.”

Zhou Xingchao nodded, "That's true. Wen Qiao's father passed away when she was very young, so she, as a little girl, certainly wouldn't know anything about her grandfather."

"Ignorance is no excuse. That's just how it is."

Zhou Xingchao lowered his voice as he spoke:

“I heard that there might be some policy changes next year, and the international situation is becoming more friendly. Maybe that old man will come to China to look for his relatives. You have to keep a close eye on Wen Qiao and make sure she doesn’t get involved with that old man.”
