He Yuzhu was taken to the security department by Section Chief Zhang, who arranged a room for him.

The house was not far from where Yi Zhonghai and the others were being held.

Yi Zhonghai and the others heard the commotion and stepped out of the window.

Upon seeing He Yuzhu being imprisoned, he immediately showed a look of joy.

"Great. That's wonderful."

He Yuzhu heard the voice and looked over: "So you've been locked up here."

Yi Zhonghai said fiercely, "Silly Zhu, don't be so smug."

Throughout history, those who are unfilial have never had a good ending.

If you had listened to me sooner, you wouldn't be in this situation now.

He Yuzhu sneered, "What you say makes sense. But if I listen to you, my future will be far more miserable than it is now."

Yi Zhonghai didn't believe He Yuzhu at all. He firmly believed that if He Yuzhu listened to him, he could turn the courtyard into a wonderful nursing home.

He Yuzhu was too lazy to argue with him and went into his room to lock himself in.

The conditions inside were quite good; the bed and furniture were all provided, and they even prepared a few apples for him.

"Thank you very much, Section Chief Zhang."

After the security guards left, He Yuzhu took an apple and walked to the door.

He noticed that Yi Zhonghai and the others were still standing by the window watching him.

He Yuzhu said with a smile, "Even if I'm locked up, I'll still live a better life than you guys."

Seeing He Yuzhu's treatment, Yi Zhonghai's eyes turned red with anger.

At the same time, Lin Jinghan also arrived at the home of the high-ranking leader.

When the high-ranking leader's wife saw her coming, she looked at her strangely: "Jinghan, what brings you here? Where's Zhuzi? He hasn't come to see us lately."

Lin Jinghan said, "Zhu Zi was arrested today."

The high-ranking leader's wife was taken aback: "Who arrested him?"

"Director Yang."

"Little Yang?" the leader's wife asked, puzzled.

The wife of the high-ranking leader knew how much favor Yang Peishan had received from He Yuzhu during the years he was removed from office.

She couldn't understand why Yang Peishan would arrest He Yuzhu.

"Come in quickly and tell me what happened."

The leader's wife pulled Lin Jinghan into the house, just as the leader came out of his study.

"Jinghan is here. Where's Zhuzi?"

The leader's wife said, "Jinghan said that Zhuzi has been arrested. I was just about to ask what happened."

The senior leader was startled and quickly said, "Then tell me quickly, what happened? Why was Zhuzi arrested?"

Lin Jinghan didn't hide anything and told the whole story.

The top leader was furious upon hearing this: "This Xiao Yang is still so petty in his work."

I'll call him right now.

The leader's wife comforted Lin Jinghan, saying, "Don't worry. Zhuzi will be released soon. That Xiao Yang is really something, he has no brains at all."

This is clearly a false accusation.

Others may not know who Zhu Zi is, but does he not know?
He wanted to arrest someone just because they wrote a letter of complaint.

That's incredibly ungrateful.

Lin Jinghan was also somewhat angry with Yang Peishan and did not plead for him.

Inside the study, a high-ranking leader called Yang Peishan's home and launched into a tirade against him.

Yang Peishan explained, "I'm doing this for Zhuzi's own good. If we resolve his problem once and for all, no one will bring it up again."

The senior leader said angrily, "You're confused. Don't you know that Deputy Factory Director Nie is leaving?"

"If you grab the pillar at this moment, are you helping him?"

Yang Peishan didn't realize what he had done wrong for a moment.

The big boss was so angry he wanted to go through the phone line and give him a good scolding.

After the senior leader explained, he realized this and quickly promised to release He Yuzhu immediately.

Then, the senior leader called Director Ding.

"Jinghan, don't worry. I've arranged everything. Zhuzi will be released soon."

"I've already spoken to the Industry Bureau. Fang Ping will be transferred tomorrow." Lin Jinghan said gratefully, "Thank you for your help with Zhu Zi's matter."

The senior leader smiled and said, "Zhu Zi and I are close friends despite our age difference, so there's no trouble at all."

Go back and tell him not to forget to come to my house next week and cook me some food.

Lin Jinghan quickly said, "Zhuzi can't come next week. He has to help my father move."

The high-ranking leader asked curiously, "After all these years, I still don't know who your father is. What organization does he work for?"

Since the topic had been brought up, Lin Jinghan couldn't keep it a secret any longer, so she just told her directly.

“My father is Lin Zhijie, and he’s about to go to the military region.”

"Lin Zhijie?" The high-ranking official was momentarily stunned: "He's your father?"

Lin Jinghan said, "Yes."

The senior leader said, "This Zhu Zi is really tight-lipped. She hasn't mentioned it to me in over ten years. I never expected that you are Lin Zhijie's daughter."

Lin Jinghan asked, "Do you know my father?"

The senior leader said, "I wouldn't say I know him. I've only met him once."

When he led his team to the south of the Yangtze River, I was in charge of preparing supplies for them in the local area.

Some of it was prepared for his unit.

I had hoped to see him, but his army marched quickly, and by the time I returned, he had already left with his troops.

At the steel rolling mill, Fang Ping learned that He Yuzhu had been arrested, so he ran over to see him.

"Director He, we had no other choice this time. We also hope to clear your name. That's why we resorted to this measure."

He Yuzhu saw smugness in his eyes.

If he didn't have connections, he would indeed be helpless in this situation.

It can only be said that Fang Ping chose the wrong opponent.

"I understand. I hope Deputy Factory Director Fang can understand as well."

Fang Ping smiled and said, "Of course I understand. There's no such thing as being filial to your neighbors in this world. So I firmly believe that Deputy Factory Director He has been slandered."

Don't worry, you'll be released within three days. I will definitely clear your name.

"No need. Director He can leave now." Yang Peishan said with a dark face as he went to the security department.

Upon hearing Yang Peishan's voice, Fang Ping showed an expression of disbelief.

"Director Yang, you..."

Yang Peishan ignored him and opened the door for He Yuzhu himself, with a smile on his face.

"Zhu Zi, you've been wronged. It was my fault this time. I'll treat you to drinks another day to apologize."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Then thank you very much, Director Yang."

Although he was smiling, there was a sense of distance between him and others.

Yang Peishan was categorized in his mind as one of the people he couldn't get close to.

Yang Peishan also knew that he hadn't handled the matter well this time.

But there was nothing he could do. How could he have imagined that Fang Ping, who had just been transferred to the steel rolling mill, would be so well-behaved?

Hearing the commotion, Yi Zhonghai stepped out from inside.

"Director Yang, I am innocent. I had no choice but to do that to you back then."

Liu Haizhong chimed in, "Yes, we've all been wronged."

"It was Director Li Huaide who told me to do that."

Yang Peishan hated these two people to the core. Their shouting made it seem like he was settling a personal score.

If this gets out, what will his superiors think of him?

"Since you claim to be innocent, then we'll hand you over to the police. Let them investigate thoroughly."

If they don't hand it over to the police, then the factory will be responsible. Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong are unlikely to run into any trouble.

But if we hand it over to the police, things could get complicated.

Based on what they did, they'll most likely be sentenced to several years in prison.

Liu Guangtian shouted to He Yuzhu, "Brother Zhu, please say a word for me. I warned you beforehand when my father was about to break into your house."

After thinking for a moment, He Yuzhu took the opportunity to plead with Liu Guangtian.

As for Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, those are not his responsibility. (End of Chapter)
