Ling Qingyu breathed out a sigh of relief as she felt Yang Qingyue's anger dissipated. She shrugged and returned a cheering smile.
Yang Qingyue rolled her eyes and gestured for everyone to sit. After so small talk, Ling Qingyu introduced everything about Zhou Rong's experience.
She didn't need to mind the latter's discomfort since she obtained permission from Zhou Rong. In front of the victim, Ling Qingyu explained every fact impassively.
Yang Qingyue, likewise, didn't change her expression much, except the eyes turned more volatile. After all, as a senior high-level official, she had learned to control her expression and perfected the art of playwright acting.
Whenever Yang Qingyue's eyes landed on Zhou Rong, the latter bowed her head with sha. In the end, Yang Qingyue sighed and said. "Ms. Zhou, I want to ask a question. Do you want to strike at everyone who had bullied you in the past?"
"I don't know, Commissioner Yang. I'm also confused and conflicted." Zhou Rong finally replied after so struggles.
"Don't worry. You don't need to attend to the court or sothing; it's just a passing scene." Yang Qingyue said. "However, what should I do with your husband? He isn't innocent either, not to ntion he went unpunished for the mistakes he committed."
Zhou Rong clenched her fist and bit her lips, unable to say a word of rebuttal because her husband's career seed to be in jeopardy according to Yang Qingyue's stern tone. She also wanted to fight a way out but her husband was at fault here.
As for the persuasive words from Ling Qingyu, condemning her husband, Zhou Rong had a hard ti believing. If soone's statent could disrupt her relationship with her dear man, how could there be a strong love?
She might maintain so suspicion but would still guard against any outsiders interfering in her family affairs.
Ling Qingyu also didn't speak because she noticed Zhou Rong's suspicion at her. After all, no fool would want to admit they were idiots, easily fooled by their dear person.
The amount of courage, ntal and willpower to admit mistakes and acknowledge oneself was enormous. So, Ling Qingyu and Yang Qingyue didn't urge her.
"Commissioner Yang, please do as you deem fit. I believe you'll give us fairness." Zhou Rong sighed and leaned back as if she lost the vibrant energy. Her husband's political career was dood because of her words.
No, in fact, he sabotaged himself. If he didn't go the wrong way, how could others leverage him? Well, for ordinary people, stepping up the ladder needed a price, and to join the inner circle and gain their trust, they must leave a handle that could destroy themselves to prove their willingness.
The official circle remained as murky as ever. As for how Yang Qingyue managed to escape these dark hands, her background answered everything. Plus Mama Yang solved any potential crisis during her career.
"Good. You gain my respect since you didn't beg for him at all even if you have feelings for him." Yang Qingyue nodded. She was prepared to persuade Zhou Rong to give up if the latter begged for help. "Don't worry, he won't go to jail but his official career to the top will be over. He can start again from the bottom of the stairs again.
Bear in mind that he would never surpass the original position which is the price."
"Thank you, Commissioner Yang for giving a chance." Zhou Rong bowed and replied. She knew if her husband encountered this huge setback, he would never work as a police officer again. He paid too much attention to his image. But Yang Qingyue had already given up as much as she could as a commissioner; Zhou Rong was satisfied.
"However, I'm still wondering why you still don't believe in our words about your husband. He isn't as good as you thought." Yang Qingyue asked.
"Maybe we can't provide strong evidence for our claim but as bystanders, we see things more clearly than you. There is no reason why he would change a skirt uniform for policewon when our central or provincial departnt didn't request anything at all." Ling Qingyu added.
Zhou Rong's face paled again when she understood the fact laid on the table. At the sa ti, she was unwilling to believe who she chose would turn out to be a person she would hate.
"In any case, that is for you to decide. Your superiors will be investigated soon, regarding their deeds and corruption." Yang Qingyue said.
With that, Yang Qingyue sentenced all the officials' lives, Zhou Rong had to look up to. Power and background, if she had these in her hands, how could she live her current turbulent life?
"Although I will not pursue your past actions, which might affect our reputations, I hope you stop indulging in your desires." Yang Qingyue told Zhou Rong with a frown. "You might think you're being forced but you aren't. I won't bla you for that since you have so considerations. After today, I don't want to see the sa thing again."
Zhou Rong nodded, blushing at Yang Qingyue's directness. Ling Qingyu and Yang Qingyue weren't idiots to completely believe Zhou Rong had no chance of resisting. There were opportunities for her if she were to fight for her fate.
Not to ntion, with her skills, few people could commit cris without her tacit agreent. Well, indeed, with threats to her career, the two could understand.
However, understanding didn't demand they must tolerate her actions. Appropriate warnings should be given to prevent future problems.
"Of course, don't worry about the mayor's son and your neighbor. They are going to jail," said Yang Qingyue. "In case the sa thing happens again, I won't be rciful toward you because you have already gained our backing. You don't need to fear any background. Even if our president tries to force you, you can outright reject him."
"We'll protect you from any harassnt." Ling Qingyu reminded. "Believe us, if we really take action against the evil officials, nobody, I an really no one including the president, can escape. You have witnessed our skills just now."
"Thank you, Madam." Zhou Rong nodded again, grateful for her destiny. Though she suffered on the way, it seed like the wheels had turned in her favor. She obtained Spirit Fox's protection and the Commissioner's backing.
The mayor and small officials she used to have restraint beca nobodies now. She could now pursue what she fancied.
As for her husband, she would decide what to do next after a deep discussion and confession between the two. She was also a prominent detective in her area, solving many cases.
Though her specialty wasn't too much in CSI, interrogation and reading people were essential innate skills for her.
Through Zhou Rong's eyes, Ling Qingyu and Yang Qingyue had so grasp on her thoughts. Both exchanged glances in satisfaction. She was worth the investnt.
In addition, Yang Qingyue's plan to shuffle the police cabinet required a local to facilitate a 'regi' change to lower negative impacts. Find more to read at My Virtual Library Empire
The more she won people from the bottom level, the better her control and the easier her future steps beca. With Ling Qingyu's help and based on the current montum, Yang Qingyue predicted by the end of the year, she would have total control over Province N Police Force and suppress any chaos, bringing back order and peace to the people.
Although she didn't want to intervene in Zhou Rong's case, especially when Ling Qingyu seed to have an interest in this policewoman, as a woman and a righteous official, Yang Qingyue made a move. She must abolish unhealthy work culture, exploitations, and oppression under her rule.
Having Zhou Rong's loyalty wouldn't add too much to her benefits since she had Ling Qingyu's support. Nonetheless, Zhou Rong's talent and skills could improve the forces underneath her if she used this policewoman perfectly.
