Huo Shaoheng had just hung up when the operator's voice rang in his ear, "Mr. Huo, Deputy Minister Xue is calling for you."
Huo Shaoheng didn't want to be interrupted and instructed the operator, "Ask them to leave a message. I'm busy and can't answer outside calls."
That day, the news officially spread at 6 PM until the third day before Dou Qingyan's case was heard. Calls to plead for Huo Shaoheng came one after another, and the entire Special Operations Forces' phones exploded.
Forty-eight hours had passed, and the guests held in the Special Operations Forces were released one after another. A few with abnormal signals on their phones were kept for further observation.
Jin Wanyi had no problems; this was a completely undeserved misfortune.
Yin Shixiong happened to be free and took the initiative to walk her out. He smiled and said, "Take care, Lawyer Jin."
Jin Wanyi already knew Yin Shixiong's identity and rolled her eyes at him with dissatisfaction, "Mr. Yin, this is unkind of you. How could you lie to me like this?"
"Haha, it's a job requirement, a job requirement." Yin Shixiong didn't explain further. He waved at Jin Wanyi and turned to leave.
Jin Wanyi bit her lower lip and walked out of the Special Operations Forces base. She found that her distant relative's uncle, Mr. Jin, one of the partners of the JD Law Firm, had personally come to pick her up in a car.
"Uncle, why did you come personally?" Jin Wanyi was surprised and happy as she hurried to the car.
"I was worried about you. Come on in." The door of the luxury limousine opened and Jin Wanyi sat inside.
The car quickly made a U-turn and sped away.
…
Zhao Liangze had just walked Bai Shuang out.
Seeing Jin Wanyi get into a luxury car, Zhao Liangze quietly raised his wrist to smooth his hair and took a picture of the car's license plate with the camera on his watch.
Bai Shuang had been silent the whole time, but was obviously in a good mood. She blushed when she saw Zhao Liangze. She had once been the spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but was actually clumsy in front of him. She couldn't even say a complete sentence.
Zhao Liangze was very polite to her and apologized profusely, "Miss Bai, please don't mind me. This is a procedural requirement, so there won't be any criminal records."
Bai Shuang finally smiled, "It's okay." Then she fell silent again.
Zhao Liangze looked around, "Miss Bai, is there no car from your family to pick you up?"
"… They're not here yet, right?" Bai Shuang looked around for a while, but she didn't see the Bai family's car. She couldn't help but ask, "Isn't my cousin going with them?"
She was asking Bai Yueran.
"Your cousin is a workaholic. As soon as she was released, she met up with the people from the Legal Department for a meeting. "Zhao Liangze chuckled." Do you want to see her? "
"No need, let her be busy." Bai Shuang blushed even more when she saw Zhao Liangze smile.
Zhao Liangze joked with her for a while and waited for the Bai family's car to arrive before waving goodbye to her.
Bai Shuang sat in the car and couldn't help but stare at Zhao Liangze's tall back.
Ever since his father defected and went abroad, his heart had been filled with gloom. Finally, a ray of sunshine shone in.
…
He Zhichu and Wen Shouyi were also fine, so they were released when the time was up.
Gu Nianzhi personally went to see He Zhichu off.
Standing in front of the boundary marker of the Special Operations Forces Headquarters, He Zhichu straightened the furry little beret on Gu Nianzhi's head with a cold expression. "Come to school early when you have time. You're a lawyer, not a soldier. Don't mess around with them."
Gu Nianzhi was a yes-man and didn't dare to throw a tantrum anymore. She only complained in her heart that if she could join the army, she would definitely do so …
Unfortunately, the Special Operations Forces didn't accept her …
Gu Nianzhi was very good at comforting herself. She didn't think about these things that spoiled the mood and smiled at He Zhichu. "Professor He, I'll go to the university in two days to get your signature. You must remember!"
"Okay, call me before you go. I'll send a car to pick you up." He Zhichu's fingers were cold and occasionally touched the skin beside Gu Nianzhi's ear. It was as cool as ice jade. Gu Nianzhi shrank back uncomfortably and waved goodbye to He Zhichu. "Goodbye, Professor He." She watched them get in the car and drive away before turning to leave.
Returning to Huo Shaoheng's official residence, Gu Nianzhi discovered that Huo Shaoheng had an endless stream of guests.
She pulled Yin Shixiong to a corner of the living room and craned her neck to ask, "Brother Xiong, what are these people doing?"
"… Interceding." Yin Shixiong laughed coldly. "All they know is interceding. Why don't they think about what they've done!"
"What's wrong? Is it serious? "
"Of course it's serious. This time, our Special Operations Forces went through a huge purge. " Yin Shixiong gestured like he was telling a story. "Tsk tsk, everyone says that Prime Minister Dou is a Prime Minister from a humble background and doesn't have cliques like those big families. He's an honest Prime Minister. Who knew that all the crows in the world are really black. This Prime Minister Dou even dares to plant people in the Special Operations Forces! "
"Oh? He really has people? "
"Why not? If he didn't, how did he get those photos out? " Yin Shixiong held a dart in his hand and threw it. It hit the bullseye on the opposite wall. "Want to have a game of darts?"
"No, you're so annoying! You know I don't like darts! " Gu Nianzhi's darts weren't very accurate and were far worse than her marksmanship. That was why she hated playing darts with others. "Just those photos alone are enough to cause a purge?"
"The photos are just the tip of the iceberg. Dou Qingyan aside, there are four other people who helped commit crimes. They stole secret information from the Special Operations Forces and leaked it to the outside world. Apart from the photos, there's also … "
"Big Xiong, Huo Shao wants to see you." Zhao Liangze walked over and stopped Yin Shixiong from continuing.
Gu Nianzhi smiled. "I'm going to bed. Remember to rest."
She turned to go upstairs. Her back looked a little lonely.
Yin Shixiong looked in the direction Gu Nianzhi had disappeared to and opened his mouth to say something. In the end, he didn't call out to her. He only glared at Zhao Liangze and said quietly, "Don't speak if you don't know how to speak. No one thinks you're mute! You changed the topic so abruptly. Do you think Nianzhi doesn't know what you're trying to say? "
"I'm doing this for her own good, and for your own good. Everyone is feeling insecure because of the leak. You need to watch your mouth. " Zhao Liangze said unhappily, "General Ji and Speaker Long are here. Director Bai is talking to them in the living room and waiting for Huo Shao. Go find Huo Shao … "
…
Meanwhile, in the Prime Minister's official residence, Yan Qiuying, the Prime Minister's wife, was crying so hard her eyes were swollen. She tugged at the Prime Minister's sleeve and said, "Hurry up and think of a way to save Qingyan! Are you really going to watch her go to jail? "
"Yes, Prime Minister, you can't just sit back and do nothing. Qingyan has suffered enough these past few years. What's more, it's just a few photos. What right does Major General Huo have to be so relentless? Is he more powerful than you, Prime Minister? "
Mrs. Yan was accompanied by the wives of several cabinet ministers. Their husbands were all Prime Minister Dou's subordinates and were usually very close to Mrs. Yan.
This time, when Dou Qingyan was in trouble, they had also helped to intercede and comfort Mrs. Yan.
"Yes, she has a point. No matter how powerful Major General Huo is, he's only an officer in the military. You are the head of the country and the Prime Minister with real power. Which of the country's affairs, big or small, can you not handle? Which official in this country is more powerful than you? "
These madams were very eloquent, and their flattery was not limited to one pattern. They could flatter him in all kinds of ways.
Prime Minister Dou had been able to keep his cool at first, but then he heard the wife of the Cabinet Finance Minister say with a sigh, "To be honest, this matter can be serious or minor. At the most, it's just that Qingyan shouldn't have told anyone that Major General Huo is her ex-boyfriend. At the least, it's a girl's secret crush. How could it be so serious? She even has to go to military court! Didn't Qingyan retire already? Why does she have to go to military court? "
Prime Minister Dou could no longer sit still.
This matter was directed at Dou Qingyan on the surface, but it was actually directed at him in secret, wasn't it?
"Prime Minister, you have a call." Prime Minister Dou's first secretary walked in with his phone.
Prime Minister Dou's expression darkened as he said, "Excuse me," and walked to the side hall with his phone. "Hello, what's up?"
"Prime Minister, it's bad. The four people we painstakingly planted in the Special Operations Forces have all been arrested by the Special Operations Forces this morning!"
"What did you say?! You only found out now that they've been arrested in the morning? Do you know how hard it was for us to get four people in?! "Prime Minister Dou was about to stomp his feet in frustration.
