Chapter 500: Unexpected News

Although Chuxue turned back toward the factory, she hadn't gone far before taking a detour. Knowing which direction they had headed, she deliberately followed them for a stretch within the factory walls, hoping to hear what they would say.

She never expected to hear those words.

Although their actions felt somewhat uncomfortable, people are selfish, so it was understandable. Judging by the behavior of these few today, this eldest uncle's wife's younger sister was every bit as bad as her own sister; truly, they were worthy of being biological sisters.

Her man was likely led astray by her as well; fortunately, her eldest sister-in-law was a sensible person.

There was no road ahead, and she had heard what she needed to hear, so she turned back and walked toward the office.

Seeing Chuxue return, Sister Hong specifically asked, "Is everything alright?"

Chuxue nodded: "Nothing major. People from my hometown came asking me to help inquire about something."

She had just used the telephone in the Section Chief's office, so she had no face to take advantage of it again. Besides, it was almost time to get off work, and there was a public phone downstairs at the dormitory building.

Kong Yizhang had previously given him a contact number, and since he worked at the Municipal Bureau, there was no harm in asking him to inquire.

On the other side, regarding the matter between Jiang Huiwen and Ding Youwen, after deliberate spreading by those with ulterior motives, by the time the Wang family realized and tried to suppress it, it was already too late.

To protect herself, Jiang Huiwen directly turned and bit Ding Youwen.

Ding Youwen knew that once he admitted it, his life would be over. He could lose his job, but he did not want to die, so he sold out Jiang Huiwen completely.

That was pulling up a radish and bringing up mud.

Even though several sons had exerted tremendous effort to try to save Jiang Huiwen, the matter had escalated too greatly, and with Ding Youwen's confession, before Chuxue could even make a move, Jiang Huiwen had been sent away.

When Kong Yizhang received Chuxue's call, he was extremely busy: "Comrade Liu, is there something you need by calling?"

"Brother Kong, am I disturbing you?"

"No problem. We are not outsiders. If you have something to say, just say it. If I can help, I certainly will without hesitation."

"I am indeed calling because of something. I want to trouble you to help me inquire."

"Is there a case at the textile factory? Is someone named Zhang Erzhu involved? What is his current situation?"

Hearing Chuxue's words: "There is indeed a case at the textile factory, but I haven't had time to inquire about it yet."

Fearing the other party might misunderstand, Chuxue spoke the truth: "Brother Kong, don't misunderstand. I don't know Zhang Erzhu personally. He is a distant in-law relative on my brother-in-law's side. He came to the factory today asking me to inquire about the situation."

"I understand this matter. I will help you inquire about it later."

Before he had finished speaking, Chuxue heard someone on the other end of the phone say, "Captain Qin, that Jiang Huiwen has confessed."

It was obvious this remark was not meant for Kong Yizhang to hear, but Chuxue's hearing was excellent, so she naturally heard it clearly.

'Jiang Huiwen'? Was it as she suspected?

However, thinking of what happened that day, even if she didn't end up in the bureau, Jiang Huiwen would not have good days ahead.

Indeed, just as she guessed, at this moment, the Wang family was gathered together. Jiang Huiwen's youngest daughter spoke first: "Big Brother, how did your inquiry go?"

Wang Manwen's face was full of exhaustion. Since receiving the news, he had been trying to find people to smooth things over, but in the end, the information he gathered became increasingly uncertain. Hearing his sister's question, he shook his head and said, "The situation is not very good. Ding Youwen has confessed to quite a lot, which is very unfavorable for Mom."

At this time, the second son, Wang Mansheng, spoke up: "Mom cannot be saved. We should think about what we will do next."
