"Linglong, who attacked the Gong family?" Cui Zhiyuan wanted to know this.
"We have already succeeded in our revenge. They are all dead. There is no chance for the younger generation to recover."
The cases of the Zheng and Xue families had been closed long ago. All the younger generations of the Zheng family had a bad ending. Zheng Furen's children were sentenced to at least fifteen years in prison, half of his grandchildren were imprisoned, and the other half were all sent to remote islands for labor reform. They would never be able to return to Kyoto, the center of power, in their lifetime.
Now that the matter has been settled, since he wanted to know, Gong Linglong also picked out some important things to tell him.
"Xue Haihui?"
Cui Zhiyuan knew him, his face livid: "He is such an ungrateful beast. Jun used to really treat him as a brother. He often came in and out of the Gong family. Your grandparents treated him very well, and the Gong family helped him a lot with his work."
"He climbed to his high position by stepping on my grandmother's corpse. It was precisely because of Zheng Furen's backing that your eldest brother couldn't defeat him even with Zhang Zhongqiao's respect. The two of them were sworn enemies for many years, and they both fell within a month of each other."
Cui Zhiyuan's face tensed as he asked her, "Linglong, did my eldest brother and his men take action against the Gong family?"
"They didn't, but six months after the fire at the Gong family's home, they shamelessly seized Mom's dowry and property, and even refused to admit it when Mom approached them."
Gong Linglong spoke the truth, but thinking about the Cui family, they weren't good people, she added, "The Revolutionary Committee has been wreaking havoc with power for years. Your eldest brother's steady rise is definitely not due to his exceptional ability. He didn't climb to power by stepping on the blood of the Gong family, but he definitely climbed up by stepping on the blood of other victims. In short, he's not a good person. I heard that his evidence file is as high as a palm, so a life sentence is a bargain for him."
She listened to her mother-in-law talk about the Cui family's case and told him the truth. She also reminded him: "His case cannot be changed. Even if you spend millions or tens of millions, you can't change the result."
"Linglong, they violated the law of the country. If they do something wrong, they must bear the consequences. The current result is their own fault."
"I'm not going to waste money on useless things, and they don't deserve it."
"I went to the Cui family yesterday and told them my position. I gave my nephew 10,000 yuan and asked him to send them food and clothes regularly to fulfill our brotherly love."
"That's all I can do to them."
Seeing that he was very principled on these major issues, Gong Linglong's impression of him was further improved. She stopped talking about the Cui family and continued to the main topic: "Anything else you want to ask?"
Cui Zhiyuan still had many things he wanted to ask. He wanted to know everything about the mother and daughter, but he shouldn't ask too much about Gong Wantang's affairs. He could only ask about her affairs: "I heard Jingchuan say before that you got married in early 1976. How did you get together?"
Gong Linglong knew that what he wanted to ask about was her growing up experience, which was not impossible to answer, so she simply started from her childhood, then moved on to blind dates, marriage, pregnancy, childbirth, and college entrance exams.
She spoke calmly, but Cui Zhiyuan felt heartbroken when he heard about their life experiences in the remote countryside. Although she was forced to go on a blind date and went to the wrong table, she was lucky enough to meet a good man. But she was so helpless and desperate at that time that she would not exchange her life's happiness for 200 yuan of betrothal money unless it was absolutely necessary.
She had such a hard life as a child, but Liang Siyao, who was raised at home, never suffered. In comparison, Cui Zhiyuan was overwhelmed by guilt.
His biological daughter lived a hard life in the country, with no food to eat and probably never had a full meal. At such a young age, she had to take on the responsibility of protecting her mother and fight against a family of scum. He couldn't imagine such a life.
Later, they planned their revenge step by step, and the difficulties involved were probably only known to them, but she just casually introduced all of this in one sentence.
Cui Zhiyuan asked a lot of questions later. Gong Linglong did not hide anything he wanted to know and told him everything.
“Beep…beep…”
They chatted until half past eleven, and only ended the topic when the phone rang.
"Hello, who is this?" Gong Linglong picked up the phone and answered it. When she heard the voice on the other end, she smiled and said, "Dad."
Cui Zhiyuan's heart trembled when he heard the sweet "Dad". He knew she was not calling him. It must be Lu Jingchuan's father calling.
"Okay, I'll come over and sign now."
Gong Linglong answered the call, looked at her watch, and said, "Dad, I'm at the factory right now. It will take at least half an hour for me to get here. Please wait for me in the office for a few minutes. I have a guest here. Let's meet later and have lunch together."
Lu Nanzheng agreed. After Gong Linglong hung up, she told Cui Zhiyuan, "It was my father-in-law who called. He works at the Ministry of Land and Resources. I need to get the land documents for these two pilot projects signed and filed. I've arranged to have lunch with him at noon."
"good."
Cui Zhiyuan also wanted to meet his in-laws, so he stood up and said, "Is your mother-in-law going to work today too?"
"To work, the two office buildings are not far away."
Gong Linglong called her mother-in-law and introduced her to him, "My parents-in-law were divorced a long time ago. They divorced when Brother Jing and his brother were young. However, they didn't stop communicating because of the divorce. Now they are like friends and are very good to me and the children."
"Okay, I understand." Cui Zhiyuan understood.
When Zhou Lanqin received her call, she happily agreed to have lunch together and would wait for them in the office.
After hanging up the phone, Gong Linglong immediately packed up her things and said, "Let's go. We'll go there now."
When they got in the car, Cui Zhiyuan remembered something he hadn't asked yet, so he took out a pen and paper from his handbag and said, "Linglong, leave me your home and company contact information, as well as your current address."
Gong Linglong did not refuse to answer. She was now basically certain that they would have a lot of interactions in the future, and it would be good for them to have a way to contact each other.
"Please make a note of this."
I gave him both phone numbers and my home address. "We're currently living at my eldest uncle's house. Grandpa gave Mom and me real estate as dowries. My house, a courtyard house next to the G Palace, was renovated a while ago, but we haven't moved in yet. We plan to move after Grandpa and his family return. Mom currently lives in the Kyoto Military District Family Compound. It was only recently that my eldest uncle returned that she brought Chichi to live with us."
"Linglong, when Jingchuan goes to the military academy or goes out on missions, you live alone at home with the child? Do you hire bodyguards and a nanny?"
"No."
Gong Linglong shook her head and said, "This isn't Country M. Only top leaders are allowed to have guards and personal assistants. No one else is allowed to have them. If anyone finds out, they'll be reported as capitalists."
