The Wu Family were all ordinary people.
After he beca an official, his family also started dabbling in so business ventures, but due to limited capabilities, despite his support, they still couldn’t make much money.
Yet, after becoming an official, his perspective broadened, he t more wealthy people, and witnessed their world. He began to pursue a lavish lifestyle.
His salary wasn’t nearly enough to cover his expenses.
When he was short of money, he succumbed to the temptation of riches and began accepting bribes.
At first, he accepted small amounts.
Gradually, as he climbed higher in office, he grew bolder, and the bribes he accepted beca more significant.
He couldn’t stand scrutiny at all.
If soone investigated how much bribes he had taken, he’d be in prison for life!
He hated Wu Jiarun to the core.
Because of Wu Jiarun, he caught Gu Junzhu’s attention.
Previously, he was safe and sound because no one investigated him.
Now, with the Gu Family’s attention, Gu Junzhu would surely send people to investigate him.
Every action leaves a trace.
No matter how secretive he was in taking bribes, a detailed investigation would inevitably expose him.
He... was finished!
Thinking of the consequences his bribery exposure would bring, his eyes rolled back, and he collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
Wu Jiarun was horrified and rushed to his side, shaking him vigorously: "Uncle? Uncle, what happened to you, Uncle?"
This was a hospital, so the rescue ca easily.
Doctors and nurses arrived quickly to perform ergency aid on Wu Qisen.
A mont later, Wu Qisen slowly regained consciousness.
Before he could speak, soone knocked and entered, approaching him and flashing a badge: "Wu Qisen, we are from the Economic Cri Investigation Group. You have been reported for corruption and bribery. Please co with us to assist in the investigation."
The newly awakened Wu Qisen’s eyes rolled back again, and he fainted once more.
Wu Jiarun almost fainted too.
She clutched Yue Zhi’s arm tightly, looking at Yue Zhi in despair, her voice trembling in plea: "Brother Zhi, think of sothing, I beg you, Brother Zhi, please think of sothing! My uncle can’t be in trouble... My uncle absolutely can’t be in trouble. If anything happens to my uncle, neither my dad nor my cousin will spare !"
Yue Zhi’s face was ashen, drained of color.
What could he do?
His so-called mighty backing, Wu Qisen, was groveling like an ant in front of Gu Junzhu; what could he possibly do?
The doctor administered ergency aid to Wu Qisen again.
After waking up, the Economic Cri Investigation Group’s personnel dragged Wu Qisen off the bed and led him towards the door.
"No! No!" Wu Jiarun shook her head vigorously, suddenly rushing in front of Beitang Tingxue and with a "thud", knelt at Beitang Tingxue’s feet.
She clutched Beitang Tingxue’s pants, pleading tearfully: "Tingxue, Auntie begs you! Auntie knows she’s wrong, Auntie shouldn’t have seduced your father! It’s all Auntie’s fault, I beg you to spare my uncle. As long as you spare my uncle, I will take Ah Ming and Qingqing far away, and we’ll never appear before you or your mother again! Tingxue, Auntie begs you, Auntie kowtows to you!"
She lay on the ground, heavily banging her forehead against the floor with resounding "bangs".
Beitang Tingxue looked down at her with a profound sense of satisfaction.
It was imnsely gratifying!
So gratifying she wanted to burst into laughter!
But spare her?
That was impossible!
Beitang Tingxue crouched down, pinched her chin: "Spare you? If it weren’t for Elder Brother Wei and Fifth Brother, the one being dragged out by the police would have been ! Do you think I’m like you, pretending to be weak and kind, a little white flower? Spare you? Dream on!"
