Chapter 183: Chapter 183: Calm Matters

Widow Wang, despite actually not looking bad, had a sallow complexion due to the years of hardship. She didn’t want to go to jail and cried, "Actually, it was a cadre who came to me; he told me to say this. If I listened to him, he’d arrange a good future for my son and daughter and even gave me a thousand yuan! I was muddle-headed... I had no choice! He threatened that if I didn’t obey, my son would never have a job for life. I was truly deluded!"

Everyone frowned; what ways could a cadre have to arrange jobs for people? It seemed there was something else going on here.

Suddenly, Widow Wang raised her head, ignoring the snot and tears on her face, and urgently said, "Comrades, you can treat me any way you like, but my son and daughter’s jobs have already been decided, you can’t change them. Otherwise, I’ll die right here; I won’t let them live like I do! You must promise me!"

Of course, Widow Wang’s request was unreasonable, but there was no way to deal with her. Saying no would have her create a big fuss in the office; she was desperate, a widow long past caring about her dignity. The authorities could only temporarily lock her up in a small dark room while they quickly sought out the cadre to understand the situation.

Bai Chuan hadn’t wasted his years in the army and news reached him early.

He smashed a teacup! And cursed in his mind. He never imagined that Gu Junming was much smarter than that foster father! Who’d have thought he had such a clever mind? That cadre was obviously sent by Bai Chuan, but now he must be silenced.

Before those people could reach the cadre, Bai Chuan called him: "You know what to say, right? You can’t be saved now, but your future is still long. You made a mistake and will need to leave the army, but after this, what you do will be different, and I can help you. If you reveal me, no one will take care of you, and your brother is also in the army, he will need help in the future too. Think this through."

The cadre thought, Bai Chuan has been around for years and has a certain level of skill. Now his granddaughter is married to the Wang Family, her future is limitless, not someone to provoke. This matter was probably done for Wang Hu.
