Chapter 129 Self-Reproach



Wu Shanshan said, "I've already told your brother-in-law to deal with Wei San. Besides, I'm a woman, I can't do it myself!"

Jiang Xiaoyue then feigned envy and said, "Sister, I really envy you for having a man like your husband!"

Wu Shanshan then said, "My brother is pretty good too, I guarantee he's better than your brother-in-law!"

"Really? But I want to marry him, and he says he won't marry me because he can't be a policeman?"

"Why? The auxiliary police officer is already a government employee, why is he so ungrateful?"

"I don't know either? But I feel it's pretty good. At least he has his own ambitions. A man like that has a future and is worth relying on!"

"Isn't that great! That's my own younger brother!"

"But how can I help him become a real policeman?"

Wu Shanshan looked at Jiang Xiaoyue and said, "Do you really want your brother to become a policeman?"

"Of course, he is my boyfriend after all, the person I will rely on for the rest of my life. If he can become a real policeman, I will be happier than anyone else!"

"It seems you really love my brother and are so eager to help him?"

"Sister, don't you believe me? I won't marry anyone but Xiaojun."

"I believe you, how could I not? Xiaoyue, tell me! What do you need me to do?"

"Sister, I beg you, please help Xiaojun and help him become a real policeman!"

Wu Shanshan thought for a moment and said, "I'll call your brother-in-law and ask him if he has any good ideas. Is that okay?"

"Sister, isn't my brother-in-law's uncle the vice mayor? Can't the vice mayor just say a word and it'll all be settled?"

"This... Xiaoyue, don't worry. I know you're doing this for Xiaojun. Xiaojun is my brother, and of course I want the best for him too. Let me call your brother-in-law first and see what he says, okay?"

"Sister, you must beg him for help. I'll agree to any condition he asks, as long as Xiaojun can become a full-fledged policeman!"

Wu Shanshan glanced at Jiang Xiaoyue with some surprise. She found that this woman had a stubborn streak and a ruthless determination to achieve her goals, which made people feel not only admiration but also fear.

Wu Shanshan didn't say anything more. Instead, she picked up the phone, dialed the paging service, and asked the other party to call her back as soon as possible.

Back then, pagers were quite efficient.

Less than ten minutes later, Zhou Chengzhi called, and Wu Shanshan quickly picked up the phone and asked, "Where are you?"

Zhou Chengzhi's voice naturally came through the microphone. He said, "I'm in my uncle's office. He's in a meeting, and I have to wait for him to finish. What? Are you getting impatient waiting for me?"

Wu Shanshan scolded him playfully, "How could you be thinking about me in broad daylight?"

"Then why are you calling me?"

"I didn't do anything, my sister-in-law is with me! She said you should beg your uncle to let my brother become a police officer!"

"This matter is both a small and a big deal. We can't let my uncle do it, otherwise he's prone to making mistakes. If he falls from power, no one will have a good life."

So you mean there's no way to solve this?

"Yes, it's just that my uncle is such a big tree that it's easy to disturb his foundation. Besides, how can you use a sledgehammer to crack a nut for your brother's little matter? It's too much of a waste of talent."

"So what do you mean? You're not going to help?"

"Help! How could I not help! I'll just make a call to the bureau chief, and I guarantee your brother Xiaojun will get a permanent position!"

"Really? You're not kidding me, are you?"

"Why would I lie to you? To tell you the truth, Deputy Director Li of the Public Security Bureau used to be my uncle's subordinate. He was also promoted by my uncle. If I say something, it will definitely be true!"

"You, Zhou Chengzhi, if it weren't for my sister-in-law asking me to ask you for help, would we still be keeping our relationship a secret?"

"No, honey, can you let me explain? We can't reveal our hand until it's absolutely necessary!"

"Okay, I won't blame you on the phone. I'll treat you when you get back!"

"Thank you, honey!"

"That's how he died!"

As soon as Wu Shanshan hung up the phone, she gave Jiang Xiaoyue an OK sign!

Jiang Xiaoyue was also a little excited and said to Wu Shanshan, "Thank you, sister. When Xiaojun and I get married, I'll invite you to be the head of the banquet!"

Wu Shanshan said with a smile, "You're not thanking me, but you're still the first seat recipient! I'm Sister Xiaojun!"

They both laughed as they spoke.

Meanwhile, Zhuang Tunan, who had just finished tidying up, was about to rest in his wheelchair when Xiang Pengfei suddenly arrived and said to Zhuang Tunan, "Your aunt fainted, why didn't you tell me?"

“I haven’t seen you for two or three days. I thought you were too busy, so I didn’t bother you. It was an ambulance that took my mom to the hospital.”

"No matter how busy I am, I have to make time to come and see her after such a big incident. My aunt is my everything, and I can't let her world collapse!"

"Alright, go to the hospital and see her! She's in the oncology department on the second floor!"

"The oncology department on the second floor?"

Xiang Pengfei looked at Zhuang Tunan with some surprise and said, "Oncology department? Isn't that cancer?"

Zhuang Tunan slapped his thigh and said, "It's all my fault for being a cripple. I can't help my mother with anything, which caused her condition to worsen and turn from a cyst into cancer!"

At this moment, Xiang Pengfei suddenly calmed down and said, "Brother Tu Nan, don't blame yourself too much. This isn't your fault. I'm the one who caused your leg injury. I'm going to the hospital to see Auntie!"

"Then be careful on the road, and don't speed!"

"Understood, Brother Tunan!"

Xiang Pengfei turned around and drove to the hospital. When he found the ward, he discovered that in addition to Zhuang Chaoying, there were also Huang Zijuan and Huang Zijuan's father, Huang Gang!

Xiang Pengfei placed the things he had bought on the table, then smiled and said to Huang Zijuan, "Sister Zijuan, you're here?"

Huang Zijuan smiled at Xiang Pengfei and said, "Let's find a place to sit down!"

As soon as Xiang Pengfei sat down on the empty hospital bed next to him, Huang Gang looked at him and said, "Are you Vice Mayor Yan's nephew-in-law?"

Xiang Pengfei naturally knew the high rank of the person in front of him, so he felt a little uncomfortable. He gave Huang Gang an awkward smile and said, "Yes, my girlfriend is his niece!"

"How's it going? Is your shipping line making money?"

"I only earn small amounts of money, insignificant amounts!"

"Small change? Really? I heard your line is very profitable, at least several hundred thousand a year!"

"That's not true, Uncle. Don't listen to what others are saying!"

"I've personally investigated this. If you say you're not making money, then you're not a real boss. You're not just a pawn, are you?"

Upon hearing Huang Gang's words, Xiang Pengfei was taken aback. He immediately regretted coming here, as he hadn't expected Huang Gang to be here, especially not such a high-ranking official.

Zhuang Chaoying could probably see Xiang Pengfei's predicament. How could he watch his nephew in such an awkward situation? He quickly joked, "Don't worry, Pengfei, neither your uncle nor I will lend you money. Besides, your uncle works for the government, so he can't ask for it!"

Huang Gang seized the opportunity to say, "Just kidding, just kidding, I'm not kidding anymore. As long as you pay your taxes legally, that's fine!"

Huang Zijuan said with a smile, "Dad, don't be like that. Don't scare my little brother. Their transportation line's taxes are very punctual, and they pay their taxes diligently every month!"

Huang Gang gave Xiang Pengfei a thumbs up and said, "Good, good young man, keep up the good work, you'll be successful in the future!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Uncle!"

Huang Gang turned to Zhuang Chaoying and said, "Let Huang Ling's illness be treated here! This illness is the same abroad, it's quite difficult. As family members, we should just do our duty. As for whether she has a good or bad fate, that depends on whether God takes pity on her! Sigh!"

Huang Gang sighed, causing everyone in the room to lower their heads. Although they were somewhat unwilling, they had no choice but to face reality.

Xiang Pengfei, in particular, felt extremely guilty, because he felt it was his fault from the very beginning. Whether it was Zhuang Tunan breaking his leg or watching Liu Wu and Hao Liu collide with Huang Ling, he felt deeply remorseful.
