The moment the police officer uttered those words, the entire private room fell into complete silence.
The police officer's gaze swept around the private room. "Where's Jiang Yong'an?"
His words brought Jiang Yongxian back to his senses.
Jiang Yongxian immediately changed his demeanor and greeted them, "Officer, I am Jiang Yongxian, and I am currently the director of the Qingyuan Subdistrict Office in Beicheng."
After quickly introducing himself, Jiang Yongxian said, "The Comrade Yang Minghui you mentioned is my younger sister's adoptive father. He has been buried for quite some time now. Your public security bureau also investigated this before. He died accidentally after falling from the mountain."
How did it turn into murder, and now it's involving my dad and my third brother? Don't you think there's some misunderstanding?"
As he spoke, he was already secretly offering cigarettes to several police officers.
Several police officers glanced at the cigarettes he offered, pushed them back, and said righteously, "Comrade Jiang, since we are all public servants serving the people, you should know that not taking a single needle or thread from the masses is our bottom line."
Whether there was a misunderstanding or not, our public security authorities will naturally investigate and clarify the matter, bringing justice to the deceased and the truth to the family.
"Take Jiang Jiahua away first!"
After the police officer gave the order, Jiang Yongxian quickly chased after them and pulled the officer in charge aside.
He asked, "Officer, you're right. We're all serving the people. My dad is, after all, the deputy director of the food factory. Yang Minghui's case was closed a long time ago, but now they suddenly want to reopen it. There has to be a reason, right?"
The police officer in charge was named Xu Hongjun. After thinking for a moment, he told Jiang Yongxian the reason for reopening the case, which was not considered a violation of discipline.
He then told Jiang Yongxian about Huo Beixiao and Jiang Qiaoqiao bringing Huang Banxian to report the case.
Seeing Jiang Jiahua being taken away by the police, Peng Cuiying felt as if all her strength had been drained, and she collapsed to the ground.
There was a loud "thump," and she didn't even realize what was happening until Jiang Yongxian and Xu Renjie returned after getting the news.
Seeing Jiang Yongxian was like seeing a savior to her. She immediately sat down on the ground and hugged Jiang Yongxian's legs, saying, "Boss, think of something! You have to think of something to get your dad out of jail! We can't just watch your dad go to jail!"
Jiang Yongxian's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. "Mom, get up first. Let's talk about this when we get home."
While suppressing his irritation, Jiang Yongxian helped Peng Cuiying up and politely said to Bai Yuzhu, "Aunt Jiang, I'm sorry, something unexpected happened at our home. We won't be able to have this meal with you and Uncle Jiang. We'll head back first."
Jiang Yongxian pulled Peng Cuiying and walked out of the private room.
Qin Haiyang and Jiang Yiran exchanged a glance, clearly unwilling to follow Jiang Yongxian back and get involved in the Jiang family's mess.
But at this sensitive time, if the Jiang family simply ignores this matter, what will happen...?
Jiang Yiran's eyes flickered, and she hesitated before taking a step. "Mom, I..."
As she spoke, she pointed outside the private room, indicating that she wanted to go back with Jiang Yongxian and Peng Cuiying.
She needed to test Bai Yuzhu's attitude.
But before she could even open her mouth, Bai Yuzhu said with a stern face, "Ranran, you stay here and don't go anywhere."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yiran and Qin Haiyang understood Bai Yuzhu's attitude.
Only then did Qin Haiyang feel relieved and boldly say, "Mom, then I'll leave Ranran in your care. I'll go see if there's anything I can do to help."
Qin Haiyang made a move to walk out.
Bai Yuzhu's forceful voice rang out, "You stop right there too! Their family is embroiled in a murder case, what are you doing getting involved?"
"Ranran, you must remember that you are now back in the Jiang family. You are our daughter, not theirs."
If their family is doing well, you should visit them and show them respect. But if their family is dishonest or has even done something illegal, then the Jiang family has no relatives like that.”
After Bai Yuzhu finished speaking, she looked at Jiang Yiran and said, "Ranran, you'd better think carefully about your choice."
Jiang Yiran was secretly delighted. She was worried that after returning to the Jiang family, they would leech off her, and she wouldn't be able to refuse them.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Jiahua and Jiang Yong'an had this kind of incident first. In this way, it will be legitimate for her to refuse the Jiang family's exploitation in the future, and no one can say anything about her.
On the surface, she remained calm, but with a hint of worry, she said righteously, "Mom, don't worry, if Dad and Third Brother really break the law, I won't pay any attention to them!"
I was born in this new era, grew up under the red flag, and have a heart devoted to the Party. I will never associate with criminals!
Bai Yuzhu nodded. "Ranran, it's good that you can understand."
After pulling Peng Cuiying out of the state-run restaurant, Jiang Yongxian couldn't hold back any longer. He stopped and asked Peng Cuiying seriously, "Mom, I'm asking you, what exactly happened with Yang Minghui, Jiang Qiaoqiao's adoptive father? Did he have anything to do with my dad and Lao San?"
Peng Cuiying did not answer Jiang Yongxian's question. Instead, she said indignantly, "It was that bitch Jiang Qiaoqiao who caused trouble behind the scenes, which is why your father was arrested by the police, wasn't it?"
I'm going to find her. You ungrateful little bastard, she came from my womb after all. What does she want to do by putting your father and third son in jail?
"Have you turned the Heavenly Gang upside down...?"
As Peng Cuiying cursed, she began rolling up her sleeves, ready to confront Jiang Qiaoqiao.
Jiang Yongxian, somewhat speechless, grabbed her arm. "Mom, that's enough. The police have already opened a case. Even if you go and make a scene with Jiang Qiaoqiao now, it won't do any good."
"Let's go home first. Tell me, does this have anything to do with Dad and the third son?"
After Jiang Yongxian finished speaking, he paused for a moment and said to Peng Cuiying, "Wait, Mom, go and call the second son first, tell him about this, and make sure he comes back."
Although he was in Beicheng, he was just a minor street office director, and the police station staff didn't recognize him at all.
The second brother was a battalion commander in the army. The local cadres recognized his status, and many of his comrades in the public security system were also demobilized soldiers and were considered his comrades-in-arms.
If Yang Minghui's death is truly related to his father and the third son, it would be easier to resolve the situation if the second son were to step in.
He wants a career in politics, and he can't have any stains on his record. If Jiang Jiahua and Jiang Yong'an really go to jail, especially for murder, then his future career will be ruined...
Jiang Yongxian felt extremely irritated when he thought about this.
Peng Cuiying and Jiang Jiahua usually regarded their eldest son as their pillar of support. At this time, Peng Cuiying had no one else to consult, so she did whatever Jiang Yongxian said.
She nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, I'll go call the second brother right away."
Meanwhile, Jiang Qiaoqiao and Huo Beixiao had already returned to the mountain where Yang Minghui had fallen, with the help of the police officers.
