Chapter 1232: Chapter 1233: Just Strike Directly Chapter 1232: Chapter 1233: Just Strike Directly Zheng Yucheng said, âThen why do you suddenly want to find him?â
Vice Chairman Lin was someone Zheng Yucheng really didnât approve of seeking help from.
The little favor owed to Xue Liujin could just remain owed, he thought; if they sought his help, with Vice Chairman Linâs measure of things in his mind, if he felt the help he rendered exceeded the favor given before, he would always remember that they then owed him a favor.
That would truly be inviting trouble.
Xue Liujin sighed and said, âDoesnât he have a brother-in-law who is at the Public Security Bureau in Huaming County? I wanted to ask him for a favor concerning a matter related to Xiao Chiang.â
Upon hearing it was about Chiang Xiao, Zheng Yucheng was immediately surprised, and his expression became grave.
âWhat happened to Xiao Chiang?â
âItâs not her; itâs her uncle.â When Xue Liujin mentioned Chiang Baoguoâs visit, Zheng Yucheng frowned.
âDad, if it really is Xiao Chiangâs issue, then we must definitely help. But you probably know a bit about Xiao Chiangâs temperament. I feel that, even if weâre going to help, we should still ask for her opinion and let her know, at the very least so we can understand how much we should help.â
âBut Chiang Baoguo said he doesnât want her to know, claiming that Xiao Chiang probably doesnât want to trouble us.â
Xue Liujin had always felt guilty towards Chiang Xiao and had always wanted to find a chance to repay her.
âDad, I think thereâs something off with what Chiang Baoguo said. Think about it, we all know Xiao Chiangâs capabilities, right? She has been in Huaming County far longer than any of us. I believe that with her abilities, if something like this really happened and someone framed her, she wouldnât be at a loss for people to help.â
Zheng Yucheng had always felt that Chiang Xiao was very capable.
Besides, her teacher was now very famous; as far as he knew, quite a few prominent figures in Huaming County were seeking paintings from Liu Guoying.
And there were others, like Principal Fu Mingfeng from Third Middle School and He Jin from Huaming Countyâthese people also had good relationships with Chiang Xiao and had status and connections in Huaming County.
Even if they couldnât help, he felt they should at least ask Chiang Xiao to what extent they had already provided helpâit would be better than them rashly diving in blindfolded.
After hearing his words, Xue Liujin hesitated a bit, âShould we make a phone call to her?â
âCall her.â
Zheng Yucheng made the decision.
However, their call reached Chiang Xiaoâs home in the city, seeking to clarify her current whereabouts.
Chu Liang answered the call.
Then he asked them to wait a while, as he would call back to Peace Town to find Chiang Xiao.
Half an hour later, Chiang Xiao made the call.
âLet me talk to her,â said Zheng Yucheng as he took the phone.
âChairman Zheng, are you looking for me?â
âXiao Chiang, itâs like this, this morning your eldest uncle came to my father-in-lawâs houseâŠâ
Before he could finish, Chiang Xiao immediately understood what it was about.
âChiang Baoguo? Did he mention Chiang Baohe? Is he trying to get Old Xue to help bail him out?â
âThatâs correct.â
âPlease tell Old Xue, Chairman Zheng, this matter canât be helped with, nor should it be touched,â Chiang Xiao said with a cold tone, âChiang Baohe indeed committed the crime of rape, and moreover, the woman who was violated has already committed suicide. The case is easily verifiable, Chiang Baohe canât escape it, and no one outside of the Old Chiang Family would want to see him get away with it, including me. Chiang Baoguo is selfish and crafty; no matter what he says, you all shouldnât believe him. If he comes back again, just chase him out with a broom.â
