With a direction of suspicion, the military region quickly investigated, and in less than three hours, the whole matter was brought to light.
Su's father had no way to defend himself, and in the end, he was taken away by the military personnel with a defeated look on his face.
Soon, Su's mother learned of this news.
Although she and Su's father both work at the city government, their departments are not in the same building.
The one who came to deliver the news was Yan Liang, Su's father's old partner: "Sister-in-law, Old Su's condition is a bit serious this time. You'd better contact your in-laws as soon as possible, or it will be too late!"

"If something were to happen to his father-in-law and sister-in-law, he would lose face."
"Furthermore, he is also a public official. As long as he wants to be promoted, his wife's family cannot be allowed to get into trouble. Otherwise, he will not be able to pass the political background check alone."
Upon hearing this, Su's mother agreed and immediately made a phone call to the Huo family.
