The deep, familiar, and somewhat serious voice pierced through the crowd.
Shu Aiguo thought the name sounded familiar, but when he looked closely, he was completely stunned.
Isn't this Luo Kangcheng?
The former director of the Deyang Public Security Bureau was later promoted and transferred to Beijing as deputy director, despite not meeting the usual requirements.
Shu Aiguo was one of the top merchants in Deyang, and he had heard rumors that Luo Kangcheng was a confidant of Secretary Zuo.
Luo Kangcheng's ability to go to Beijing is inseparable from Secretary Zuo's influence. He is capable, good at solving cases, and good at interpersonal relationships. He can truly do practical things for the people. Based on the cases he has handled, he will be promoted to the top position of the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau sooner or later.
By then, Luo Kangcheng's abilities will be extraordinary.
Shu Aiguo had a good relationship with the old man of the Luo family and would occasionally have a drink with him, but he was not really familiar with Luo Kangcheng. He never expected that Wu Wenlan's man was Luo Kangcheng.
No, when did Shu Hui and Luo Kangcheng get together? Shu Hui and Luo Kangcheng are both in Beijing and are old acquaintances, so it's not entirely impossible that something might happen between them.
Shu Aiguo was a little unsure. He paused for a moment, then wiped his hands and asked, "Director Luo! What brings you here?"
"Just call me Kang Cheng. I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
"No, no, it's just that this woman said my sister was seducing her man... Look at the mess this has made..."
Shu Aiguo was a little embarrassed. Who would want to talk about their family's embarrassing affairs in front of everyone?
If his sister really had something going on with Luo Kangcheng, that would be better.
People laugh at poverty but not prostitution. Even though her sister married the police chief and broke up someone else's family, the villagers could only look on with envy. Behind her back, they would try to curry favor with Shu Aiguo and ask Luo Kangcheng to do things for them through Shu Aiguo's connections.
But if there's nothing there, it's a bit awkward.
Luo Kangcheng's face was grim as he stared at Wu Wenlan expressionlessly.
Wu Wenlan hadn't seen him for many years. On her recent visits to the Luo family, she only saw Luo Kangcheng's parents.
The couple hadn't seen each other for several years. Luo Kangcheng's physique hadn't changed; he was still as strong and muscular as ever. However, his face looked more weathered than before, and his gaze was more intimidating, cold and menacing, as if it concealed a knife.
You can slice a person into pieces from a distance.
Wu Wenlan couldn't help but shiver. She felt guilty towards Luo Kangcheng for causing this farce. She was too ashamed to look Luo Kangcheng in the eye.
"Wu Wenlan, what exactly do you want?" Luo Kangcheng's voice was icy cold, showing no mercy whatsoever. "A few years ago, I became a vegetable because of a case I was handling. It was on TV, and everyone in the city knows about it. When you saw that I couldn't wake up, you took the child and married Song Chengjian. I heard you two are doing quite well, and Song Chengjian is quite obedient. Instead of living a good life with Song Chengjian, you come here to cause trouble for me. What exactly do you want!"
Luo Kangcheng's voice sounded distant, and Wu Wenlan felt very uncomfortable.
Luo Kangcheng used to be cold and aloof, but he was very protective of his own. He would protect anyone who was close to him.
Wu Wenlan was domineering, often offended people, and was unreasonable.
Luo Kangcheng often apologized to others on her behalf, and he would protect her and stand up for her when she was in trouble.
Although Luo Kangcheng had been cold to her for many years of marriage and they didn't see each other every day, he really couldn't find any major faults in her other aspects.
I handed over my salary and extra income, leaving me with only a few cents for food, not even enough to buy a pack of cigarettes.
Wu Wenlan was used to Luo Kangcheng like this. In her mind, Luo Kangcheng was a soft persimmon with no temper, whom she could manipulate at will. But she forgot that Luo Kangcheng was the director of the Public Security Bureau. How could he not have any backbone if he could reach such a position?
“I…I…Although we don’t live together, we’re not divorced yet,” Wu Wenlan said, her voice hardening. “As long as we’re not divorced, it’s illegal for you to have affairs outside! I can report you to your workplace! Luo Kangcheng, you’ve worked hard to get where you are today, don’t tell me you’re going to ruin your promising future for a woman!”
She thought she could control Luo Kangcheng, but Luo Kangcheng wasn't buying it at all.
"Go ahead and sue me! I'd like to see if you can bring me down!"
Luo Kangcheng understood her selfishness and arrogance, and even more so her lack of common sense. Wu Wenlan thought she could bring him down, but she didn't realize that he was the director of the Public Security Bureau, and his case was officially recognized by the organization.
During his time in a vegetative state due to his work, he was cheated on by his wife. Everyone knew about Wu Wenlan's de facto marriage with Song Chengjian, and even if she delayed getting the marriage certificate, the police would still sympathize with him.
Nobody takes Wu Wenlan seriously.
Wu Wenlan panicked, "Luo Kangcheng, we were husband and wife for a time. You're willing to abandon me for this woman, but you're even abandoning our child? Luo Bin is your only child, and you're counting on him to support you in your old age."
Luo Kangcheng was truly impervious to reason.
"Retirement? His father became a vegetable, and he and his mother remarried, which was one thing, but now that his father is better and he's working and earning money, he doesn't even bother to come and see him. I can't even rely on him now that I'm young, how can I expect him to support me in my old age? Wu Wenlan, are you out of your mind or am I out of my mind!"
Luo Bin lowered his head, somewhat unable to meet his father's gaze.
Wu Wenlan asked him to remarry her, and he did.
Wu Wenlan forbade him to contact the Luo family, so he cut off all contact.
Wu Wenlan asked him to come and cause trouble at the Shu family's house, and he did.
He was just listening to his mother. Although he made a mistake, Luo Kangcheng couldn't blame him. At that time, Luo Kangcheng was seriously ill and couldn't use any of his connections, but Song Chengjian promised to pave the way for him in the future.
At that time, Luo Bin was not very old. He had lived with Song Chengjian for several years and had developed some feelings for him.
He truly didn't expect Luo Kangcheng to wake up.
