At the same time, the Public Security Bureau dispatched multiple forces, and all the eldest son of the Nguyen family and his mistresses and illegitimate children were arrested. Nguyen Ngoc Mian's sister Nguyen Ngoc Lan and her husband, parents-in-law, and children were all taken away from their workplaces to cooperate with the investigation.
The Lu family did not try to cover up what happened to the Ruan family today. Instead, they told the outside world about Ruan Wenwen's attempt to redeem herself and sacrifice her own family for the sake of justice.
Ruan Wenwen put the interests of the country above her own and provided a lot of criminal facts about the Ruan family. After taking the statement at the Public Security Bureau, she went back. As soon as she arrived home, she was attacked and beaten by the whole family.
She had already been severely beaten by Lu Jingchuan, and her whole body was in pain. She also knew that she had caused trouble, so she did not run away when the elders beat her. She knelt on the ground and let them vent their anger.
The eldest daughter-in-law of the Ruan family was the last one to return home. She learned that her husband had a family outside and that his illegitimate child was eight or nine years old. Her parents-in-law knew about it but did not stop it. Now they are putting all the blame on her daughter. She angrily called all her brothers and relatives from her mother's side and smashed the house to pieces.
When she learned what happened today, she rushed to the Public Security Bureau and forced the man to sign the divorce papers. Then she went to see her sister-in-law Ruan Yumian and slapped her four or five times on the spot.
Gong Linglong was not aware of what happened to the Ruan family later. She had already gone to the Zhou family with Lu Jingchuan. Gong Chengjun stayed in the hospital to take care of his sister.
When the young couple arrived, Mrs. Zhou was busy preparing dinner in the kitchen. As soon as she saw them, she said, "Linglong, I just made some pork bone soup and dumplings. Send some to your mother after dinner. Let her drink more nutritious soup and she'll get better soon."
"Thank you, grandma." Gong Linglong thanked her.
"You don't have to be so polite to your family."
Madam Zhou poured her a cup of tea and said, "Linglong, you can rest in the living room and read a book or newspaper. You don't need to help with the kitchen work. Xiaochuan can just help me."
Lu Jingchuan didn't let her do it either. He took her to the living room and sat her down, then gave her a stack of the latest newspapers to read.
“Beep…beep…”
The phone rang, and Gong Linglong called to the kitchen: "Grandma, there's a call."
"Here I come."
Mrs. Zhou quickly wiped her hands on her apron and strode over to answer the phone. "Hello, who is this?"
After listening to a few words from the other end, she handed the phone to Gong Linglong, "Linglong, this is your Uncle Han calling. He wants to talk to you."
"Hello, Uncle Han, what do you want to talk to me about?" Gong Linglong took over the phone.
Han Ji's voice came from the other end of the line, "Regarding the commendation for disaster relief. Among all government agencies, the Seoul Civil Affairs Bureau performed the best in this disaster relief effort, raising the most relief supplies. The higher-ups have commended and commended it. Secretary Yan of the Seoul Civil Affairs Bureau has been promoted to Kyoto, and your supervisor, Director Yang Manrong, has also been promoted and will be taking over Secretary Yan's duties. They will both be in Kyoto tomorrow to receive the commendation. You will accompany them to the commendation meeting."
Gong Linglong smiled when she heard this. Since the two leaders were promoted, it was very likely that she, a junior assistant, would also be promoted. She immediately asked, "Uncle Han, when is the commendation meeting?"
"The day after tomorrow, Jingchuan will also participate on behalf of the Seoul Military Region. You should stay in Kyoto for a few more days. We can discuss the details when we meet in the evening." Han Ji was busy with work and hung up the phone after saying this.
After Gong Linglong put down the phone, she went to the kitchen to talk to her grandmother and the man, and then borrowed a phone to call the office at her unit.
It was already dark when Grandpa Zhou returned from get off work. He looked exhausted, probably because he had been dealing with so many difficult situations recently. As soon as he entered the house, he expressed his concern for his granddaughter-in-law. "Linglong, I heard about your fall today. Did you see a doctor for a thorough checkup?"
"Grandpa, I checked it out. Fortunately, the baby is still young and fell on my mother, so it's nothing serious."
Mr. Zhou nodded and asked his grandson, "How did you deal with that bastard?"
"Send him inside to eat simple food."
Lu Jingchuan had no intention of letting Lu Qiuhe off easily, and the specific verdict would require some time to come.
"What's your father's attitude?"
Old Mr. Zhou was very disappointed with his former son-in-law, but for the sake of his two grandsons, he never scolded him in front of outsiders.
"I didn't plead for her. Now I'm investigating all the bad things that mother and daughter have done." Lu Jingchuan has complicated feelings towards his father and is always in a bad mood when talking about him.
Mrs. Zhou brought a bowl of hot tea and said to her husband, "Xiaochuan's grandmother wants them to divorce. Ruan Yumian, seeing that he didn't save that bastard, also clamored for a divorce, but he said he didn't intend to divorce. I don't know what's going on in his mind."
Lu Qiuhe is in jail and the Ruan family is in a mess. It is difficult for them to recover. After Ruan Yumian completes her education, the troupe will not let her go back to work.
The ruined reputation of his wife and daughter, coupled with the affairs of the Yue family, will actually have a great impact on Lu Nanzheng.
Divorcing now is actually in his best interest.
Gong Linglong didn't go to the Public Security Bureau today, but after listening to Mrs. Lu's account of what happened, she had some guesses about her father-in-law's thoughts. She said, "I think Dad doesn't plan to divorce, not because of emotional responsibility or anything like that. He's punishing himself."
"He asked for it, he deserves it." Old Master Zhou said with a sullen face.
On the other hand, after get off work, Mr. Lu went to the hospital, visited Gong Wantang, apologized on behalf of the Lu family, and then went to find Lu Nanzheng, pointing at him and angrily accusing him.
No one knows a son better than his father. Mr. Lu guessed the reason why he didn't plan to divorce, and it was exactly what Gong Linglong thought.
"One misstep can lead to eternal regret. You did something wrong, and the retribution and punishment you are receiving now is what you deserve."
"Your good life has been ruined to this extent. You can't blame anyone. It's all your own fault. You deserve it."
"You chose the path yourself. I don't care whether you walk on your knees or crawl for dear life. I don't care."
"If you let those bastards affect the future of my two grandsons, the marriages of other granddaughters of the Lu family, and the reputation of the Lu family, you will get out of the Lu family forever."
Lu Nanzheng hung his head and let the old man scold him without saying a word. He lowered his head and took the scolding in silence.
When Mr. Lu first came over, Lu Dongzheng and his wife followed him. After the old man had lost his temper, Yu Peirong spoke to ease the atmosphere, "Second brother, your family affairs are not something your sister-in-law should interfere in. But I have a few words to say. I hope you will listen carefully and think about it carefully."
"Sister-in-law, you say." Lu Nanzheng said with a stern face.
