A domineering country girl flirts with her son, and Commander Huo can't resist.

"Secretary Hao, to be honest, Qiao An... Qiao An is the Mu family's biological daughter. Her parents finally managed to find her, but she ran away during the ransacking of their home."

"If you don't believe me, you can have someone go to her hometown to investigate. Her adoptive parents definitely know about this."

Upon hearing this, Hao Renming's brows furrowed instantly. "What? A capitalist who slipped through the net? He's actually in our town, and right under my nose, working for the police station! This is outrageous!"

"Xiao Liu, let's go! Take me to see this. If she's behind the mass poisoning at the police station, arrest her immediately and have her publicly denounced tomorrow!"

Liu Liang didn't say anything. He knew Qiao An because the police station was right next to the commune, so he was somewhat familiar with her.

He heard from the people at the police station that Qiao An had many connections, and a few days ago he even asked someone to buy two catties of peaches and a bag of brown sugar from Qiao An for his wife who was in confinement after childbirth.

This whole thing happened today, I hope Qiao An doesn't drag him out.

Hao Renming led his men to the police station, and as soon as they entered, they heard groaning and moaning coming from inside.

More than a dozen people clutched their stomachs, their faces pale with pain.

The doctors from the town's clinic have all come and are giving them IV drips.

"Chief Jiang, what exactly happened?" Hao Renming asked Jiang Yushun.

Jiang Yushun's brows were furrowed, and large beads of sweat slid down his chin.

"Director Hao...we...we might have food poisoning."

At this moment, Qin Feng jumped out from the side, grinning widely to defend herself.

"Director Hao! You've finally arrived! I've worked at the police station for so many years, always conscientious and diligent, and I've never made a mistake in my work!"

"Qiao An has only been here for half a month, and the officers at the police station have all suffered from food poisoning. The rice, noodles, grains, oil, and vegetables in the canteen all passed through her hands. It must be Qiao An!"

Qin Feng spoke with great certainty, but a barely perceptible hint of guilt flashed in her eyes as she looked at Qiao An.

"Who is Qiao An? Step forward!" Hao Renming shouted sternly.

Qiao An knew something interesting was going to happen the moment Hao Renming walked into the police station.

Because Mu Yu was with Hao Renming.

At this time of day, she should be digging a canal in Lianchi Village. Why is she in town, and beside Hao Renming?

She had no choice but to think about it.

Upon hearing Hao Renming call her name, Qiao An calmly stepped forward.

"Director Hao, I am Qiao An."

Hao Renming turned his head, paused for a few seconds, and looked Qiao An up and down.

She had an oval face, large, grape-like eyes, a pert nose, cherry lips, and two jet-black braids.

Dressed neatly and smartly, she didn't look like a rural woman at all when she stood there.

Hao Renming silently swallowed his saliva. Qiao An looked much more attractive than the miserable Mu Yushui.

If she really is the daughter of the Mu family, she will still have to come to him for help when she has nowhere else to turn.

Thinking of this, Hao Renming's Adam's apple bobbed, and his face turned slightly red.

Mu Yu knew from Hao Renming's expression that he had other intentions towards Qiao Ansheng.

You little slut, you start seducing men just by standing there.

"Do you know what mistake you made?" Hao Renming cleared his throat and asked.

"I don't know," Joan answered crisply.

"You..." Hao Renming was speechless.

"If it weren't for your negligence, would the police officers at the station have gotten food poisoning?" Mu Yu stepped forward at this moment, wanting to add fuel to the fire.

"Hmph! On the surface, they're just doing procurement for the cafeteria, but they've been making a lot of money for themselves behind the scenes, haven't they?"

The police officers receiving IV drips in the lobby on the first floor did not agree with this statement, especially He Hua.

She found Qiao An, who had brought a lot of good stuff to the cafeteria these days. Having worked in logistics for so many years, how could she not know that the prices Qiao An offered were cheaper than those on the black market?

She didn't earn any money at all, and these past few days, she had been observing Joan.

He was quick and efficient, worked diligently, and never took a penny from the canteen, unlike Qin Feng, who treated the canteen kitchen as her own home.

He Hua believed that Qiao An did not do it on purpose, and that there might have been a mistake in some part of the process.

"Secretary Hao, Comrade Xiao Qiao is not that kind of person. She is very conscientious in her work and keeps clear accounts every day. This must be a misunderstanding."

Seeing He Hua speak up for her, Qiao An felt grateful and even more certain that it was worth it to take the risk of changing the plot today.

"Yes, I also think Xiao Qiao isn't that kind of person," Jiang Yushun said, enduring the pain.

Hao Renming was momentarily stunned, not expecting that Qiao An was quite popular at the police station.

Mu Yu was about to speak when Qin Feng spoke first.

"Secretary Hao, nothing's been touched in the cafeteria. If we go check now, we're sure we'll find something!"

Qin Feng's words served as a wake-up call for Hao Renming.

He led his men to the cafeteria.

Fearing that Qiao An would be wrongly accused, Jiang Yushun and He Hua, carrying IV drips, struggled to catch up.

"Xiao Liu, Xiao Zhong, go to the kitchen and check everything that goes into our mouths."

"yes!"

Two young men were rummaging through the kitchen, while Qiao An watched them calmly, showing no sign of guilt.

Soon, Liu Liang found the condiment station. He picked up the oil bottle, looked at it, smelled it twice, then frowned and handed the oil bottle to another person.

After carefully smelling the oil, Xiao Zhong took the oil bottle and walked out of the kitchen. "Secretary Hao, there's something wrong with this oil."

"What's the problem?"

"Secretary Hao, we busted a group of people selling substandard cooking oil last year. I went with some colleagues from the Municipal Administration Bureau. I remember the smell of the substandard oil was exactly the same as the one in this oil bottle."

"It has the smell of tung oil and castor oil, which is what we commonly call industrial oil."

After saying that, Xiao Zhong looked at Qiao An and said angrily, "Eating too much of this kind of oil will kill you!"

"What?"

"What?"

Hao Renming and Jiang Yushun spoke at the same time.

Qin Feng finally seized the opportunity, "Director Hao, Chief Jiang! This oil was bought by Qiao An! I haven't even touched it!"

"Never touched it? How do you cook?" Qiao An scoffed.

"I..." Qin Feng was taken aback by the retort, then became enraged, "You little slut! I knew you weren't a good person long ago. Did you switch the oil and sell it for money secretly?"

"You earn your living off the public funds, do you have any conscience at all?"

"If anything happens to the officers at the police station, you'll be in jail!"

"Director Hao, we have to teach Qiao An a lesson!"

Mu Yu could barely suppress her smile. She had thought she would have to use her words, but she hadn't expected that the old woman in the police station disliked Qiao An just as much as she did.

"Sister, our Mu family is already struggling enough coming here for reformation. Please don't make things even harder for us, okay?"

"If you apologize to everyone now and accept reform with us, you can start a new life."

Everyone in the cafeteria was a little confused. What was the relationship between Qiao An and the Mu family?

Who is this woman?

Seeing Mu Yu's pitiful and innocent look, Qiao An couldn't hold back and slapped her.

"You think I wouldn't dare beat you up just because Secretary Hao is there?"

"You..." Mu Yu covered her face, turned to look at Hao Renming, and looked like she was about to cry.

"Qiao An, have you no regard for the law? I, the commune secretary, am still here!"

Having at least slept with Mu Yu, Hao Renming helped her out to some extent.
