Chapter 234 Testimony
Song Lubai knew that Lou Yuchun hadn't done what happened before, but she had already burned the documents and hadn't handed them over. Naturally, she couldn't go to the government office with him; if she did, she would be exposed. So, she could only resort to this kind of sophistry.
"I told you I have other things to do, and I've already taken leave. You can go by yourself."
Lou Yuchun glared angrily.
Damn it, who dares to give Song Lubai such a hard time? How dare she treat him like that!
Lou Yuchun was furious, but she could only sulk in silence.
He couldn't let anyone know about his dealings with Zhou Mingying, and he couldn't reveal the contents of the document either. Song Lubai had someone backing her up, and she didn't want to continue working, so he really couldn't do anything about it.
Before Song Lubai even left the supply and marketing department compound, she spotted Minister Zhou looking haggard.
Anyway, she's leaving soon. Although she doesn't know where she's going, she's definitely not going to stay here anymore. She doesn't care about the people and things in the department anymore.
"Minister Zhou, I have something to tell you."
Seeing that Zhou Bu was distracted, Song Lubai said, "It's about you, you'd better cheer up."
She looked around and then walked towards the corner.
Zhou Mingying had been in low spirits these past few days. She looked at Song Lubai with exhausted energy and asked wearily, "What is it?"
Song Lubai told Lou Yuchun about his plan to harm her.
"I don't know if the information is real or fake. I've already burned it, but if he wants to bring you down, he definitely won't let it go. He just came to me and wants me to go with him to the office to find that document. If you're going to settle accounts with him, don't betray me."
"Minister Zhou, I've said everything I needed to say. I'll be leaving now."
Zhou Mingying looked at Song Lubai with a strange expression.
To her, Song Lubai was just a somewhat familiar employee in the department, and she wasn't close to her at all. She never expected that this junior employee would do something so big behind Lou Yuchun's back.
Zhou Mingying roused herself and asked, "Aren't you afraid that those documents are true?"
Song Lubai said, "I remember you told us in class that the supply and marketing department is a basic livelihood guarantee department, and such an important place should not be messed up. I didn't think that much about it, I just didn't want everyone to be worried when they work in the future."
With Song Lubai gone, Zhou Mingying's gloomy mood improved somewhat.
Regardless, the other party approves of her more than Lou Yuchun.
She was powerless to help her husband. She had been summoned and questioned multiple times. Zhou Mingying was already exhausted, but she told herself that she couldn't give up completely.
After leaving the supply and marketing department, Song Lubai took the report to the government office.
She can't come and go freely here now, so she can only wait for Chen Weiliang at the door.
After telling Chen Weiliang about the matter and giving him the letter, Song Lubai said, "Comrade Chen, when the time is right, why don't you quit working here?"
At the height of their careers, Song Lubai knew that what she was saying sounded like she was crazy, and that the other person probably wouldn't want to listen to her anyway.
Chen Weiliang chuckled softly, "Your partner has said something similar."
Song Lubai exclaimed, "Huh?" "He came to see you?"
Chen Weiliang said, "I heard he wants to be transferred to the southern border. He's doing well here, why does he want to go there?"
Logically speaking, this place is definitely much better than that place, and the future is brighter.
Going down is easy, coming back is hard.
At this time, the southern border was incomparable to this place.
Song Lubai shook her head, "I don't know what he's thinking. If he wants to go there, I'll go with him."
Chen Weiliang had mixed feelings, and he was somewhat envious of Wei Yang.
Seeing him in a daze, Song Lubai waved her hand in front of his eyes. "Comrade Chen, remember what we said. If you can get away, seize the opportunity and get away as soon as possible. Don't let the power and wealth in front of you blind you."
Chen Weiliang nodded. "I've got it."
His goal has always been just those few people; how could he be satisfied if he didn't kill Wang Yang?
As Song Lubai turned to leave, Chen Weiliang said, "Song Lubai, in the next few days someone will be asking you to investigate the incident where I was attacked. You... you'll testify for me, right?"
Song Lubai nodded without hesitation, "Absolutely!"
Chen Weiliang smiled.
When Song Lubai arrived today, she noticed that there were more soldiers patrolling the streets, and the groups of young people who used to cause trouble had all disappeared.
Just as a patrol team rounded the corner, Yang Lizhen suddenly appeared and grabbed her shoulder.
Song Lubai was startled. "What are you doing?"
Yang Lizhen gripped her arm tightly and pleaded, "Comrade Song, I beg you to go and talk to Chen Weiliang and ask him to release my father."
Song Lubai frowned. "What happened to your dad?"
Yang Lizhen's eyes were bloodshot. "My dad was taken away, and so was Wang Yang's dad. It must have been Chen Weiliang who did it."
After breaking free, Song Lubai said, "Comrade Yang, that's your business. You shouldn't have come to me."
Yang Lizhen insisted, "He won't see me now. You're on good terms with him, Comrade Song, please help me, I'm begging you."
Song Lubai said, "Your father's affairs are not something I can interfere with. Besides, you think this matter is related to Chen Weiliang, but have you ever thought about why he did it?"
“I happened to be passing by the place the day Comrade Chen had his accident. Comrade Yang, I heard Wang Yang say that you were calling out Chen Weiliang’s name in your dreams. If you have someone else in your heart, don’t get married. If you do get married, then live a good life. Have you never reflected on yourself?”
Yang Lizhen said with a pale face, "I didn't want this to happen either, but my mother forced me to. I didn't dare to resist, I had no choice..."
It wasn't her business, and Song Lubai didn't want to see her go crazy, so she turned and left.
Feng Ying was off today, and Song Lubai stayed in her dormitory until evening before getting up to go back.
She turned into Wang Haiquan's house as she passed by.
Yan Fang is breastfeeding her baby, while the other three children are eating.
Seeing that there were only boiled potatoes on the table, Song Lubai frowned and asked, "Sister Fang, where is your family's grain?"
The two were already quite familiar with each other, so Yan Fang didn't shy away from her and said, "They were stolen a few days ago. The potatoes were given to us by a neighbor who felt sorry for us. Don't worry, I'll go and exchange them for some grain once no one is watching my house anymore."
Song Lubai said, "When my boyfriend comes next time, I'll have him dig a cellar in your house so you can hide some things."
Yan Fang pulled her clothes tighter, carried the child, and walked around the room, sighing, "I wonder how Haiquan is doing."
When will this end?
Song Lubai said, "I've seen him before. He's lost some weight, but he seems to be in good spirits."
Yan Fang wanted to ask more, but Song Lubai could only say the nice things.
It was getting late, and Song Lubai continued walking towards her dormitory.
Walking in the alley near the dormitory, Song Lubai saw a suspicious person peeking out from behind a telephone pole.
The man looked shifty-eyed. After getting closer and seeing his face clearly, Song Lubai sneered.
