Chapter 58 Huo Chenzhou breathed a sigh of relief
Huo Chenzhou has been working like a robot these days, without resting at all, and working at a high intensity.
That day, he suddenly received a telegram from Shen Zhixia, saying that she was coming back.
return……
Huo Chenzhou read it several times and found that he had not misread it.
He couldn't describe the feeling in his heart.
After Shen Zhixia left this time, he was already convinced that she wouldn't come back. He thought that Shen Zhixia wanted to divorce him this time, but she was coming back.
Now that she's back, will she leave again?
Huo Chenzhou clenched his fists. If Shen Zhixia came back this time, he would never let her leave. He would never let her leave his side again, and it would be no use even if she begged for mercy.
Just as Huo Chenzhou was seriously imagining things, Company Commander Wang came over to report on the mission. He casually said, "I heard from a comrade that the Shen family and Wang Qiming are suspected of smuggling and have been detained. It was your wife who reported them. Your wife is truly selfless and puts family members first. People above are all talking about her. This time, she even donated the inheritance left to her by her mother to the research institute. She's really doing great things quietly."
Huo Chenzhou stood up abruptly, knocking the pen off the table: "What did you say?"
Company Commander Wang said in surprise, "Don't you know? I thought your wife went back this time specifically to deal with this matter."
Huo Chenzhou looked at him in disbelief and said, "She reported Wang Qiming?"
Company Commander Wang nodded: "Yes, I don't know the specifics, but it seems that Wang Qiming was also involved in smuggling with the Shen family."
Huo Chenzhou was deeply shocked.
His tense mood, which had been building up for days, suddenly eased.
It turns out it was true.
Shen Zhixia did not lie to him; she went back this time to handle some matters and then returned.
She wasn't going to see Wang Qiming.
It seems that she and Wang Qiming really have no relationship.
Huo Chenzhou said with a smile, "Come on, I'll treat you to lunch."
Company Commander Wang: "?"
Huo Chenzhou had always been cold and serious towards him, so his sudden friendly smile made him feel uneasy and uneasy.
These past few days, Huo Chenzhou has been working like crazy, and this is the first time he's left work so early.
Company Commander Wang followed behind him and walked out together.
Huo Chenzhou seemed to be in a good mood, walking with a brisk pace. At this moment, a soldier saw Huo Chenzhou and asked curiously, "Commander Huo, is there something good happening? Why are you so happy?"
"My wife is coming back," Huo Chenzhou said.
"Is...is that so? That's a very happy thing." The soldier replied, then walked away in surprise.
Huo Chenzhou was so engrossed in his joy that he didn't notice the odd expression on his face.
After the soldier left, he muttered, "Wasn't he not coming back?"
The day Shen Zhixia left the military camp was actually very low-key, but because she was away for a long time, everyone knew that Shen Zhixia had left.
There weren't many people in the military camp to begin with. Shen Zhixia was Huo Chenzhou's wife and was considered a celebrity. It was no secret that she and Huo Chenzhou had gone through a divorce. Although Shen Zhixia's image had been salvaged a lot afterward, the fact that she left with the army after only a few days made everyone speculate.
Rumors are circulating that Shen Zhixia went to see her first love, and some even say that Shen Zhixia and Huo Chenzhou have decided to divorce.
Everyone assumed that Shen Zhixia wouldn't be coming back.
These were all whispered among themselves; no one dared to make a scene in front of Huo Chenzhou.
...
Shen Zhixia was preparing to go with the army, but it wasn't something she could just go back to whenever she wanted. She checked the nearest train tickets and found that there was no direct bus until five days later.
Then we'll just have to wait.
To her surprise, Zhang Mei and Shen Jinxiu were released in the afternoon, and even Wang Qiming was released.
It's normal that Wang Qiming was able to get out. He wasn't involved in the incident. The supplies on the truck belonged to the Shen family and had nothing to do with him. So he was criticized and educated, and he also had to pay some compensation, so he was released.
He was in a bad mood. He had suffered a huge loss this time. He had lost all the money he had taken from the Shen family, and he had also lost a lot of his own money.
What bad luck!
Shen's father couldn't escape this time. With Shen Zhixia as a witness and the fact that all the property in the car belonged to the Shen family, he couldn't leave at all. However, this time he took all the responsibility upon himself to protect Zhang Mei and Shen Jinxiu, urging them to hurry out and find a way to rescue him.
The Shen family's assets are gone, but they still have connections. This time, he asked Zhang Mei to find someone to raise money. As long as those boxes containing stones are replaced, Shen's father's crime will be less serious.
Because the police have now determined that Shen's father smuggled a batch of valuables, they need to fill in the missing items.
Shen's father had nowhere else to turn.
Now we can only rely on Zhang Mei.
Shen Jinxiu was completely bewildered. Having been pampered and spoiled, she had never experienced anything like this before. She asked fearfully, "Mom, what do we do now?"
Zhang Mei said, "I had some money with your grandfather back then, and I'm going to ask him for it this time."
She had to get Shen's father out. He was Shen Jinxiu's father, and if he spent his whole life in prison, what hope would they have? Shen's father knew so many people; he would definitely make a comeback after he got out.
She has to rescue them.
Zhang Mei and Shen Jinxiu returned to the Shen family first. Shen Zhixia, who was still at the Shen family, tried to transfer herself to a spatial dimension. Unexpectedly, she succeeded, but it was pitch black all around, and she could only hear the conversation between the two.
Shen Jinxiu said bitterly, "Where is Shen Zhixia? We are in such a miserable state because of her. If I run into her, I will not let her get away with it."
Zhang Mei also hated her to the core: "If we had known she was so scheming, we should have tied her up when she arrived. We shouldn't have been so polite to her."
"Fortunately, I managed to get her job back, otherwise I would have been forced to go to the countryside."
"Let's go, pack up and go to your grandfather's house," Zhang Mei said.
After Shen Zhixia came out, the two had already left the supplies area.
Shen Jinxiu's maternal grandfather...
Zhang Mei's family wasn't very wealthy. After she married Shen's father, she brought her parents to Shanghai and bought them a courtyard house not far from the Shen family's home.
They're heading over now; it seems Zhang Mei has saved up quite a bit of money there.
So she quietly followed them.
Zhang Mei and Shen Jinxiu arrived at a courtyard. There was only an old man fanning himself at the entrance. Although he was old, he seemed to be in good spirits.
"Dad, I have something to tell you, something's happened. You need to get the money I deposited with you right away," Zhang Mei said anxiously.
The old man paused for a moment, then rummaged through the house for a long time before taking out a small locked box, which he handed to Zhang Mei.
Shen Zhixia hid outside the door and used her mind to transfer the contents inside to her own space.
It was a bankbook and a few gold bars.
