Chapter 503: Just Wait for Your Punishment
Jiang felt wronged; she had only left to use the restroom for a moment. How could she have known that something would go wrong in just a few minutes?
“You still don’t admit it? Yesterday afternoon, a fellow villager discovered that over forty women had been abducted. Because he knew Vice Commander Cheng, he came to our military unit for help.
The guard on duty called, asking if Vice Commander Cheng was available. But because you were absent, the person who took the call said Vice Commander Cheng wasn’t there and sent the villager away.
It wasn’t until the guard changed shifts, and he started to feel that something wasn’t right, that he went to the headquarters to ask. It turned out that Deputy Commander Cheng was actually at the headquarters all along.
But because of the delay of that one hour, the abducted women were violated by the human traffickers.
Do you know what kind of fate a girl faces after being violated? Her life could very well be ruined!
All of this, because of your dereliction of duty!
This time, it’s only ruined the life of one girl, but if the villager had reported other military intelligence, the damage would not only have been to one girl. It could also have caused great harm to the Party and the people!”
Now Jiang was truly scared: she had just been promoted to an officer position, and she feared that she might be demoted or even discharged from service because of this incident.
“I’m sorry!” she said with her head lowered.
The commander shouted: “Your ‘sorry’ is for the girl whose innocence was destroyed because you left your post! Don’t you know that those who are not on-duty officers or soldiers of our unit are not permitted to enter military areas? Just wait for the headquarters to decide your punishment.”
Jiang now hated Wen Meiling to death.
He asked again: “What’s your cousin’s name, who is she, and why would she do this?”
Jiang: “My cousin is called Wen Meiling. Her husband is Vice Factory Director Yan, who runs that famous large factory owned by the Gu Family in our area.”
The commander didn’t expect that this matter would circle back to Gu Dongxing.
He made a call to inform Gu Dongxing about the situation he had discovered.
Gu Dongxing hadn’t expected that this matter would be related to Vice Factory Manager Yan. Coincidentally, the one who answered the call happened to be visiting the military base to see her cousin, and just so happened to take the call because her cousin was using the restroom. What he didn’t expect was that, due to her grudge against Mengyu, she lied after knowing that the person looking for Vice Commander Cheng was Mengyu.
He called for Vice Commander Yan, “Does your wife have a cousin working at the military base headquarters?”
Vice Factory Manager Yan was surprised: “Yes, how do you know?”
Gu Dongxing relayed the information he had found to him.
Gu Dongxing coldly stated: “Are you aware that your cousin-in-law took a call at the headquarters yesterday afternoon and carelessly lied, which led to a serious mistake?”
Vice Factory Manager Yan was shocked: “She went to the headquarters to hang out and answered a call from the guard? But her own father is in the military, she wouldn’t have any ill intentions, could she really do something bad?”
Gu Dongxing conveyed to Vice Factory Manager Yan what he had told Jiang earlier.
“…My partner discovered a vehicle loaded with abducted women and sought my help immediately in intercepting the vehicle transporting the abducted women. As I was not at home due to a task at the ethnography research institute, my partner had to seek help from Vice Commander Cheng.
But because your wife lied about Vice Commander Cheng not being available, it resulted in us not being able to rescue the abducted women in time, and their innocence was ruined. Tell me, isn’t that doing something bad?
Don’t try to say that I have the wrong person. In those few minutes that Jiang went to use the restroom, your wife was the only woman there. Moreover, all calls at their headquarters are recorded internally!”
Vice Factory Manager Yan was extremely shocked that his wife, Wen Meiling, would do such a thing. Why would she lie?
