Although Heilongjiang Province has a cold climate, it has the largest and only piece of true black soil in the country. In addition, its proximity to Mao Zedong makes it an extremely important strategic location.
Therefore, none of the soldiers who rose to prominence here were simple individuals.
Jiang Linchuan is the fastest-rising and most promising figure in the history of the Heilongjiang Provincial Military Command.
The head of the investigation team, not wanting to offend him, nodded. "Don't worry, we will act according to the rules and won't let you and your fiancée down."
Jiang Linchuan received a reply and finally left.
The team leader turned and walked towards the interrogation room inside.
"Wang Zhizhi, you wrote the whistleblower letter. Don't struggle in vain. It's just a matter of writing with your left hand. Do you think we can't see through such a small trick?"
“If Li Xingzhou hadn’t used his connections to protect you, I would have sent you directly to a labor camp, to the most desolate and cold place.”
"However, out of respect for him, we'll let you off this time as long as all your belongings are confiscated."
"But the labor camp thing is impossible. I'll just put you in a labor camp nearby. Are you willing?"
Wang Zhizhi screamed in terror, "I do!"
That evening.
Wang Zhizhi then gained her freedom.
Fortunately, there was no one around, so she didn't have to endure those strange looks. She staggered home and found her luggage had been rummaged through.
Everything is gone.
All that was left were a few tattered clothes.
Those are clothes that no one else could wear, otherwise there probably wouldn't be any left.
Wang Zhizhi collapsed to the ground and burst into tears.
Her luggage contained all her money, which amounted to several thousand dollars!
She obtained it through every means possible after her rebirth!
Some were stolen from home, some were from selling jewelry that Xu Xinghe had given her before, and some were obtained through fraud...
Now they're all gone!
Sudden.
A noise came from the next room.
Wang Zhizhi looked over suddenly, her eyes filled with resentment.
The only person who knew she had so much money was Li Xingzhou!
Otherwise, why would the investigation team have thought of confiscation?
She stood up, rushed over, and ignoring the fact that Li Xingzhou was already lying down, slapped him across the face. "Li Xingzhou, you owe me money!"
"Are you crazy!" Li Xingzhou never imagined that he would be beaten one day, especially in the face!
Even his parents never hit him!
He has always been everyone's pride!
He kicked the man to the ground, his voice icy cold, "If it weren't for my connections, do you think money would have helped? You still wouldn't have kept your money, and you would have been sent down to the countryside, most likely to a place like the Northwest! I'm the one who's saved you from being sent down because I've swallowed my pride and pleaded for you! If you're going to be so ungrateful, then get out! As for what's between us, you can say whatever you want!"
If he didn't want Xu Xinghe to know, he wouldn't be afraid of Wang Zhizhi's threats at all.
Now that he's been slapped, he doesn't want to take it anymore.
In a dark room.
Only scattered moonlight shone through the window.
Like the cold wind, it carried a biting chill.
Wang Zhizhi collapsed to the ground, hugging herself, her body trembling uncontrollably.
Even though the room was warm, she felt a chill running through her bones.
She has no money now, where can she go?
Moreover, she is a woman. If she does that kind of thing with a man before marriage, her body is not clean. If word gets out, she will never be able to face anyone and will definitely become a laughing stock in everyone's eyes, making it even more impossible for her to get married.
Unless you're looking for a widower or an old bachelor...
But Li Xingzhou is different; he is a man, and an outstanding man at that.
Even if he has a relationship with someone, there are still plenty of women who would want to marry him.
This world is just so unfair.
She stood up shakily, reached for Li Xingzhou's hand, and slapped herself hard. "Xingzhou, I'm sorry, I was too angry. I was wrong. Please don't abandon me..."
Li Xingzhou took a deep breath and hugged her. "Zhizhi, if it weren't for me, you'd be lucky to be sent to the countryside, or you'd be unlucky and die. Do you know what kind of methods those people use? They're best at torturing people, making you wish you were dead."
"I went to great lengths to get you out of this mess. I not only asked people to speak on my behalf and incurred their favors, but I also gave away the watch my mother left me. I did all this for you. After that, the entire military will know that it was you who wrote the anonymous letter that caused this trouble, and only I will still care about you from now on."
He raised his hand to wipe away Wang Zhizhi's tears. "From now on, be obedient. Do what I tell you to do, and don't do what I tell you not to do. And don't cause trouble, okay?"
Li Xingzhou reached out and put his arm around her waist, pulling her closer to him again. "Besides, you've given me your body, and now your reputation is ruined. Who else but me would want you in the future?"
These words were like a thorn, piercing deeply into Wang Zhizhi's heart.
She remembered the money she had confiscated, the hard labor she had endured in the labor camp, and the contemptuous looks from others. She trembled and involuntarily hugged Li Xingzhou tightly, as if she had grasped the last straw.
"I'll listen to you, I'll listen to everything you say..."
Li Xingzhou's lips curled up, but his eyes were devoid of warmth. Oh well, this woman is still somewhat useful; at least her body can be used for amusement.
"Zhizhi, this is the last time, don't disappoint me again."
Wang Zhizhi nodded frantically, tore off her clothes like a madwoman, crawled into bed, and tried her best to please Li Xingzhou with her body.
This is the only thing she still has...
The moon sets and the sun rises.
The courtyard became lively.
"Hello, hello." A crackling sound suddenly came from the loudspeaker.
Political Commissar Wang's calm and powerful voice rang out again, "Attention all officers, soldiers, and their families, I am about to announce an important message."
The noisy residential compound fell silent instantly, and heads popped out of every window.
The soldiers who were about to go to training also stopped and stood at attention to receive orders.
"After investigation, it was found that Comrade Xu Xinghe was wronged and was not the so-called capitalist's daughter."
The political commissar's words, broadcast through loudspeakers, reached every corner: "On the contrary, Comrade Xu Xinghe donated one million yuan of his family assets to the country on September 15, making an important contribution to national construction. He is a well-deserved hero! The certificate will be on display at the military headquarters for three days. Anyone who wants to see it can go to the hall to view it."
"Upon investigation, it has been confirmed that the person who anonymously reported Comrade Xu Xinghe was Wang Zhizhi. Her actions not only betrayed the organization's cultivation but also seriously damaged the trust among comrades, demonstrating serious problems with her ideology and morality."
"Given that Wang Zhizhi has slandered meritorious officials and created a negative impact, it has been decided, after investigation, to impose the following punishment on her: effective immediately, she shall go to Hongxing Village for labor reform, where she shall be responsible for assisting villagers in collecting winter manure to accumulate fertilizer for planting in the spring of next year."
"It is hoped that Wang Zhizhi can deeply reflect on her actions and improve her ideological awareness during her time in the labor camp. Others should also take this as a warning and not spread unverified rumors."
As soon as the broadcast ended, the residential compound erupted in an uproar.
"One million! Xu Xinghe actually donated so much money!"
"I never expected that the whistleblower letter was written by Wang Zhizhi. She stole Xu Xinghe's clothes before, and now she's writing a whistleblower letter. She's really wicked!"
"Let's stay away from this kind of person in the future!"
Upon hearing the broadcast, Wang Chunmei excitedly slapped her thigh, quickly put on her cotton-padded coat, and rushed to Xu Xinghe's courtyard. "Xinghe, your story has been broadcast!"
Xu Xinghe was just going out to wash up when she smiled sweetly, "I heard you, thank you Aunt Mei for always believing in me."
"Oh, it's nothing. You're such a good girl, I knew you were destined for great things!"
A figure walked by quickly.
It was none other than Wang Zhizhi.
She was completely covered up, as if she wanted to hide even her eyes.
She will start collecting excrement for the villagers in Hongxing Village today.
But if you want to go to the village, you will definitely pass by Xu Xinghe's house.
Xu Xinghe glanced at it briefly before looking away indifferently. "Aunt Mei, let's eat together today."
