When Ding Xiang left in a hurry, Nan Sheng chuckled to herself. Judging by her reaction, it seed the Ding Family had also benefited quite a bit from the situation.

But calculating the timing, she estimated that officials from the city or province would arrive tomorrow. Once Director Yi was handed over, she could gracefully step back and disappear from the scene.

After Lin Han returned ho, Nan Sheng brought up the matter. "The wife of Regintal Commander Shen’s family might get dragged into this ss. You should keep your guard up."

"Got it, dear. Don’t worry, I won’t let anyone push around easily. But since I’ve just taken over the regint, we’re heading out tomorrow for a training mission. I’ll have to leave the household matters to you."

Nan Sheng was perfectly fine with that. In fact, his absence was even better—she wouldn’t have to juggle work during the day and "overti" at night.

Knowing her husband would return in a foul mood, she had the children eat first before sending them off to bed early.

By nine in the evening, Shen Yu finally arrived, his face cold and unreadable. Ding Xiang stayed silent, her mind already in turmoil.

Shen Yu sighed. "The Yi family has done plenty of evil—why bother with them? If the Lin Family gets hold of any leverage, I’ll be at their rcy. Can’t you stop causing trouble for ?"

"You think I want to deal with their ss?!"

At this point, Ding Xiang had no choice but to confess to her husband.

"My uncle’s job was arranged by my father. Ever since he started working at the Revolutionary Committee, he’s been sending gifts to our house. If it weren’t for fear of implicating my father, I wouldn’t care what happens to him!"

The mont Shen Yu heard his in-laws were involved, his expression tightened. "What did he send? Just ordinary things, or…?"

Ding Xiang sighed. "Both. Who knew he’d get caught?"

Now Shen Yu understood. Food and drinks were one thing, but this was serious. His composure shattered, and he urgently asked how far the situation had progressed.

If the Ding Family got into trouble, he’d lose a significant source of support.

Ding Xiang gritted her teeth. "It’s too late. The wife of Deputy Regintal Commander Lin said she’s already transferred the case to the county. Tomorrow, I’ll go back ho and have my parents dispose of anything suspicious. We’ll wait for things to blow over."

At this critical mont, Shen Yu couldn’t afford to worry about pride.

"Fine. Tomorrow, I’ll go to the military district and talk to Deputy Regintal Commander Lin. If that doesn’t work, I’ll ask the Division Commander to intervene. You shouldn’t have kept this from ."

If Shen Yu had scolded her, Ding Xiang would’ve only grown angrier. But his softened tone broke the dam—tears stread down her face.

"You’ve always hated these kinds of things… How could I dare tell you?"

The next morning, the couple split up. Ding Xiang took an early bus to the county, while Shen Yu went to the military district gate to intercept Lin Han.

After waiting endlessly with no sign of him, Shen Yu asked around and learned Lin Han had left even earlier. Frustrated, he resolved to try again during lunch.

"Deputy Regintal Commander Lin is already on a mission? Why so suddenly?"

Before departing, Lin Han had personally retrieved Luo Hao and Han Yongxiang from confinent, then gave them another harsh reprimand.

After beating them, he left a warning: "If either of you causes trouble before I return, expect to spend half a month bedridden!"

Outmatched, the two had no choice but to submit. Luo Hao, already in a foul mood, didn’t bother hiding his irritation when speaking to Shen Yu.

With a lazy smirk, he said, "Regintal Commander Shen, missions in our district have always been like this. Your question sounds pretty unprofessional."

Shen Yu stord off, seething. If this had been one of his own n, he’d have kicked him to the ground. Luo Hao’s reputation as a troublemaker was well-earned!

Nan Sheng arrived at the town governnt office just in ti—she’d overslept. Su Jie intercepted her in the lobby, whispering that officials from the city had arrived and were waiting in Secretary Cai’s office.

"Director Nan, they’re here to take Director Yi away for investigation. Secretary Cai asked to give you a heads-up."

Nan Sheng nodded in acknowledgnt. When she entered the office, Secretary Cai quickly introduced her.

"Director Nan, this is Comrade Jin Xuwu from the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission. He’s here regarding Yi Zhongren’s corruption case."

Jin Xuwu had already researched Nan Sheng’s background beforehand. A refined and courteous man, he extended his hand politely.

"Hello, Comrade Nan Sheng. I’m Jin Xuwu!"

Nan Sheng shook his hand briefly before getting straight to business. "Director Jin, shall I proceed with the transfer?"

Jin Xuwu smiled. "That would be much appreciated."

Both the Municipal Party Secretary and Deputy Secretary had emphasized the importance of safely escorting Yi Zhongren back to the city. Ou Yaosheng’s arrest was also underway—a major crackdown was imminent.

As for Nan Sheng, the leadership unanimously praised her integrity in exposing the scandal. Once the timing was right, she’d be reassigned away from the Revolutionary Committee.

When Nan Sheng led Jin Xuwu to the interrogation room, Director Yi flew into a rage. He clung to the table, refusing to leave, and shouted:

"I won’t go to the city! Director Nan, you promised to send to labor reform! You lied!"

Nan Sheng shrugged, feigning helplessness. "Director Yi, once you’re in the city, cooperate fully. Strive for leniency!"

Whether Yi Zhongren liked it or not, he was being taken away—never to return.

Before leaving, Jin Xuwu even invited Nan Sheng to visit the city soday, assuring her she’d always be welco.

Secretary Cai, baffled by the inspector’s cordiality, dragged Nan Sheng into his office for an "interrogation" of his own.

"What’s going on here? Why was the leadership so polite to you?"

"Nothing much. Just that sumr’s here, and the Revolutionary Committee’s about to cool down—permanently."

Secretary Cai was speechless. Did she even rember she was part of the Committee?!

Nan Sheng couldn’t care less what Secretary Cai thought. With Director Yi off her hands, she was thrilled. After all, wrongdoing always ca with a price.
