Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption Chapter 121 - 90: Movements of Various Parties3

"Now that the project approval hasn’t co through, Secretary Liu can’t say much, but with Mayor Yang in charge, sothing that would normally take over half a year to get approved could probably be handled in about three months. At that ti, I must face this problem.

I’ve considered not keeping the promise, at worst my career ends here, and at worst case scenario, I’d spend a few years in prison, but what makes hesitant to decide is what to do with Wen Xin, Ye’er, and Feng’er, my dad gave up everything to live with , I fear he won’t be able to take such a blow."

"Zhenggang, we’ve been through thick and thin in this environnt, not for just a day or two. Naturally, we’re not like we used to be, knowing nothing but fervor, vocally committed to doing nothing that goes against our conscience.

Sotis, going against our conscience is to do more conscientious things, an official like you is rare these days. If you let go now, it’s not just you who would lose out.

Besides, letting go might lead to worse outcos because the other party won’t allow you to leave so easily. You must persevere.

You, if I hadn’t pressed you, I wouldn’t have known about all the difficulties you’ve endured these years. Have you ever considered a real buddy?"

"I’ve always been too ashad to ntion it to you. This matter has been suffocating . Do you have any good advice for the steps ahead?"

"Steady now, first stabilize the other party and don’t show any signs of weakness. I’ll think of a way to help you investigate the evidence. If you had told about these things earlier, we might have resolved them by now. Ah, what should I say about you?"

"Heh heh..., I always felt I couldn’t bring myself to say it. By the way, the matter of Ye’er asking you for a cell phone, if it’s troubleso then forget it, I’ll talk to her."

"What’s there to be troubled about? It’s for my niece to use, that’s family."

"There’s sothing else I want to discuss with you, Ye’er wants to apply for military college. What do you think?"

"Really? This kid keeps surprising , support her, no question, I’m a hundred percent supportive..."

Listening to the conversation in the room turn to casual chit-chat, Luo Ye stood up quietly and tiptoed to the kitchen, poured a glass of water, and tiptoed back to her own room.

Ye Xuan, who had been leaning against the corner all this ti, watched the petite figure disappear from view, his thoughts churning. He could tell at a glance that the child had just finished exercising in the room and it was no ordinary exercise. What had this child at such a young age been through to be pushing herself so hard?

The reason Jiang Zheng went to the study to talk with Luo Zhenggang was to find out what had happened that caused such a big change in both the children and adults of the Luo Family. He knew very well the relationship between Jiang Zheng and the Luo Family, having often heard Jiang Zheng express concerns about his good brother while they were on missions together.

Soone whom Jiang Zheng treated with his heart and soul aroused his curiosity, which was also why he was willing to visit the Luo Family. Now, he felt that Jiang Zheng’s concerns were sowhat justified, yet the Luo Family were far from as vulnerable as he fretted over.

Ye Xuan glanced at the ti; the crumpled piece of paper he had been kneading in his hand quickly flicked towards the door of the study. Following that, the study door opened gently, and Jiang Zheng ca straight to him: "Let’s go."

Ye Xuan turned and left without a word.

Watching the two figures disappear, Luo Zhenggang gently closed the room door, leaned against it, and pondered for a long ti before sighing softly and returning to the bedroom.

"Husband, what were you guys talking about so late?" Wen Xin leaned worriedly against the headboard of the bed.

Luo Zhenggang smiled reassuringly, "It’s nothing, I just told Jiang Zheng about so difficulties at work and asked for his advice. I also told him about Ye’er’s intention to apply for military college, so you don’t have to worry."

"All secretive and not letting go over, I was so worried." Wen Xin rolled her eyes dissatisfied.

"So things are better left unknown than known. Jiang Zheng didn’t want to worry you, you know what his job is like. Why is he staying at our house this ti? So things we understand are enough, be good, don’t overthink it, let’s sleep."

...

"Uncle Jiang, you’ve got dark circles, Auntie won’t like that." At breakfast, Luo Ye noticed the dark circles under Jiang Zheng’s eyes and teasingly joked with him.

"I’m just getting in touch with national treasures, understand?" Jiang Zheng smiled and rubbed his face, "Your auntie would only feel sorry, certainly not heartless like Ye’er."

"Uncle, where did you go last night?" As soon as Luo Ye asked, she distinctly felt Ye Xuan glance at her, thinking of his profession, she couldn’t help but feel a bit guilty. Did her actions last night... get found out?

With that thought, she stole a glance back, clashing directly with his dark purple eyes. Mou Ye quickly mustered a sweet and adorable smile: "Brother Ye, you don’t have dark circles, still so handso. My mom’s fried buns are delicious, you should eat more." After speaking, she even wanted to smack her own mouth, what on earth was she rambling about?
