Chen Jinlan returned to the tube-shaped building, preparing to take so clothes for Song Jiajia, and encountered Li Rui.
Li Rui looked at Chen Jinlan and said, "Oh, isn’t this Jiajia’s mom?"
Chen Jinlan looked at Li Rui, not wanting to speak with her, knowing nothing good would co from her mouth.
She was about to pass by her and leave.
Li Rui wouldn’t let Chen Jinlan go so easily, blocking her way: "I say, Chen Jinlan, why don’t you seem worried at all?"
Chen Jinlan looked at Li Rui impatiently: "What should I be worried about?"
Li Rui sneered: "Chen Jinlan, I didn’t expect you to have such a good mindset. Director Song has been arrested, and you’re still so calm."
Chen Jinlan angrily said, "Li Rui, what nonsense are you spouting? Do you believe I’ll tear your mouth apart!"
Li Rui covered her mouth laughing: "No, Chen Jinlan, you wouldn’t possibly not know that Director Song has been arrested, would you?"
Chen Jinlan couldn’t believe it. There’s no way he could have been arrested out of nowhere. It must be Li Rui spouting nonsense here.
"Li Rui, I don’t have ti to joke with you right now. Move aside."
"Chen Jinlan, who’s joking with you? If you don’t believe , go out and ask around. Everyone knows Director Song has been arrested; only you don’t know.
It’s really strange, how could you not know? Director Song was arrested several days ago. You’ve noticed he’s not ho, haven’t you?"
She knew, how could she not know?
But she didn’t believe it, so she turned and ran out.
Li Rui watched Chen Jinlan’s disappearing figure with mocking eyes.
"Mom, why are you always at odds with her?"
Li Rui’s daughter ca around the corner; she couldn’t appear at this mont, or she’d affect her mom’s performance.
Hatred flashed in Li Rui’s eyes, mixed with a trace of guilt.
Why would she be at odds with Chen Jinlan?
It’s all Chen Jinlan’s fault.
She was supposed to have two children.
Because of Chen Jinlan, she lost her second child and never had the chance to bear children again.
Back then, Chen Jinlan insisted it was an accident and had nothing to do with her.
But if she hadn’t tripped her, how would she have fallen down the stairs and miscarried?
At the ti, due to Song Zhenhua, there was no way to hold Chen Jinlan accountable.
She always rembered this.
She would never forgive Chen Jinlan, nor did she have the right to forgive her on behalf of the unborn child.
As long as Chen Jinlan was unhappy, she felt joy.
"Let’s go ho." Li Rui said nothing else.
Li Rui’s daughter pouted, remaining silent.
After leaving the tube-shaped building, Chen Jinlan rode her bicycle to the police station.
"Hello, I’d like to ask if there’s soone nad Song Zhenhua here?"
The policeman looked at the woman before him and asked, "Comrade, what’s your relation to Song Zhenhua?"
Hearing this, Chen Jinlan’s eyes went dark instantly, so Song Zhenhua was indeed arrested, right here.
"Comrade, comrade!"
Unable to withstand the blow, Chen Jinlan collapsed to the ground.
The policeman hurried forward to help Chen Jinlan onto a bench.
After a while, Chen Jinlan ca to her senses: "Have you really arrested a man nad Song Zhenhua?"
"Comrade, you are?"
Chen Jinlan said: "I am, I am his wife."
Since the matter involving Song Zhenhua didn’t affect others and the evidence was clear, they hadn’t interrogated the family.
It’s quite normal that they were unaware.
Chen Jinlan continued: "Comrade, you must have arrested the wrong person. How could my husband commit a cri? You must have the wrong person, right?"
The policeman replied formally: "Comrade, regarding the criminal Song Zhenhua, we’ve thoroughly investigated the matter. The evidence is conclusive, and he has confessed."
Chen Jinlan’s face imdiately turned pale.
"Impossible, impossible, you must have made a mistake. You’ve made a mistake."
Chen Jinlan grabbed the policeman’s clothes, shouting.
"Comrade, please calm down. We police work based on evidence and don’t arrest people recklessly."
Chen Jinlan hysterically shouted: "How could this happen? How could this happen!"
Others looked on helplessly.
After a while, Chen Jinlan gradually cald down.
"Police comrade, can I see my husband?"
Several policen exchanged glances; then one said: "Let request permission."
Coincidentally, Song Zhenhua was still at the police station; in a few days, he would be transferred to the detention center.
The policeman made a call, and soon returned: "The higher-ups have given permission."
Then two policen led Chen Jinlan to where Song Zhenhua was held.
Song Zhenhua was brought out.
Seeing Song Zhenhua, Chen Jinlan almost didn’t recognize him.
In just a few days without seeing him, Song Zhenhua looked incredibly disheveled, as if he had aged more than ten years.
His beard had grown.
"Zhenhua."
Song Zhenhua raised his head to look at Chen Jinlan, his eyes hollow: "Why did you co?"
Chen Jinlan said: "Zhenhua, did they make a mistake? How could they arrest you?"
Song Zhenhua didn’t speak.
Chen Jinlan said: "Zhenhua, I’ll go find Jiang Jingming to get you released, okay?"
Upon hearing Jiang Jingming’s na, Song Zhenhua suddenly laughed.
He looked at Chen Jinlan: "And how do you think I ended up here?"
Chen Jinlan froze, then a thought flashed through her mind, "How co, why would he do that?"
Song Zhenhua self-mockingly laughed: "Why? What do you think it could be?"
Chen Jinlan, not entirely foolish, understood after hearing Song Zhenhua’s words.
"You an, Sang Yu?"
Song Zhenhua spoke no more.
Chen Jinlan continued: "It’s okay, I’ll go find Sang Yu, I’ll go find Sang Yu and not ntion Jiang Jingming. You’re Sang Yu’s uncle, she won’t turn a blind eye. Zhenhua, wait for ; I’ll go find Sang Yu."
With that, Chen Jinlan wasted no ti heading to find Sang Yu.
Song Zhenhua didn’t stop her, hoping Chen Jinlan could truly find a bit of hope through Sang Yu.
Otherwise, what awaited him was the death penalty.
But how could it be possible; if Sang Yu really wanted to help them,
Jiang Jingming wouldn’t have arrested him,
He wouldn’t have ended up like this.
Never mind, it’s all the sa anyway.
Leaving the police station, Chen Jinlan imdiately went to Jiang Jingming’s place.
"Open the door, open up!" Chen Jinlan banged on the door.
Sang Yu opened the door and saw Chen Jinlan.
Chen Jinlan looked at Sang Yu and said directly: "Sang Yu, your uncle was taken by the police. Go quickly and get him out."
As she spoke, she pulled Sang Yu.
The commotion summoned the attention of nearby neighbors.
Rembering Sang Yu had often given them food, seeing her being pulled like this, they imdiately stepped forward to help.
"Why are you here again? Why are you here again, and now you’ve gotten physical." The crowd said to Chen Jinlan.
