Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 706 Taking Charge Alone

Grandpa Su truly regarded Li Yancheng as his own nephew, regardless of whether he was the son-in-law of his friend.

In some ways, the help he provided to Li Yancheng was even greater than that of his father-in-law, Grandpa Luo.

Now, hearing that his old friend wants to entrust such a difficult task to Li Yancheng in the future, he can't help but feel a little angry.

Although Grandpa Su was well aware that this was an excellent opportunity for Li Yancheng to establish prestige and accumulate experience, there were also drawbacks to every advantage. The pressure he would face and the potential dangers he might encounter were unimaginable to ordinary people.

Criminals never sit idly by and wait to be punished; they will do everything they can to escape their fate.

Sometimes, if they can't resolve the immediate issue, they'll resort to other means to get rid of the person who caused the trouble.

If Li Yancheng really goes to the Municipal Supervisory Commission in the future and starts to take charge of the rectification, then in the eyes of those criminals, he will be the one who caused trouble.

Old Luo knew perfectly well what his old friend was worried about. He smiled faintly and said, "Old Su, do you think Yan Cheng would be afraid of those underhanded methods?"

Leaving aside the despicable tactics he faced after being transferred to the Public Security Bureau, wasn't there plenty of danger when he was in the Social Affairs Bureau?
He is my daughter's husband, the son-in-law of the Luo family. Of course, I don't want him to face those dangers. I also want him to live a peaceful life. But now he has already stepped onto this narrow plank bridge.

Old Su, we're all getting old. The children will have to walk their own path from now on. We old folks can't shelter them from the wind and rain forever; they'll eventually have to stand on their own two feet."

"How could I not understand what you're saying?" Old Master Su continued.

"Whether it's Yan Cheng, your Luo Jun and Luo Yang, or my family's, none of them can stand on their own right now."

"What you mean by being able to stand on your own is not the same thing I mean."

???

Old Master Luo's words left Old Master Su somewhat stunned; he couldn't quite understand what his old friend meant.

Before he could ask a question, Old Luo continued, "The children are all doing well, each with their own development, and quite well at that. Of course I know that."

Especially Yan Cheng, I have seen and remembered everything he has done and worked hard over the years. This kid has had a tough time.

Lao Su, as you know, I haven't actually been involved much in Yan Cheng's growth over the years, but he has done everything very well.

But……"

At this point, Old Master Luo suddenly changed the subject.

"But Lao Su, although Yan Cheng has worked very hard over the years, in many people's eyes, his primary label is still that of the Luo family's son-in-law."

It was as if everything he did was successful because he was the son-in-law of the Luo family.

His promotion and advancement seem to be all because he is the son-in-law of the Luo family, and I am paving the way for him.

Many people overlook his efforts, which is unfair to him.

I want him to be independent so he can shed the label of being the Luo family's son-in-law. At the very least, the first label he should bear should be himself.

"But Lao Luo, you've got one thing wrong."

"what?"

"What others are saying is the truth, not a rumor. Yan Cheng is the son-in-law of the Luo family, that's a fact. No matter what he does, he can't get rid of that label, even if he retires. It's not something he can get rid of just by leading one or a few large-scale special operations."

Wasn't the joint social security operation he led in 1981, when he was still the executive deputy director of the municipal bureau, quite significant?

Lao Luo, I know you mean well for Yan Cheng, but there's really no need to train him so deliberately. This kid has already done a really good job.

I support his decision to go to the Supervisory Commission. Although the Social Affairs Bureau and the Public Security Bureau are two different units, their work is actually quite similar, except that the Public Security Bureau's work is a bit more complicated.

He's been in that unit for quite some time now, so transferring to the supervisory commission would definitely be a good path for him. It would broaden his horizons and give him more opportunities to develop his skills..."

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came. Hearing the noise outside the courtyard wall, Old Su stopped and turned to look at the courtyard gate with Old Luo.

They are currently in the office compound. This small courtyard is where Grandpa Luo's office is located. Unless there is a special emergency, no one will run around here at will.

Just as the two elders looked toward the courtyard gate, a figure appeared there—it was the deputy captain of the security team beside Grandpa Luo.

As soon as the deputy captain reached the gate, he saw the two people sitting in the yard looking at him. He took a deep breath, calmed his heart which was beating fast from running, and stepped into the yard.

"What happened, Xiao Zhou?"

Upon seeing that the person who had come was the deputy captain of security beside him, Old Luo frowned slightly and asked.

"Old Luo, news has come from the Ming army that Huansheng and Xiaoyu were surrounded by several people with malicious intent while playing outside."

Ming Jun and Fu Rong quickly subdued the group, and the cheers and laughter were not disturbed in any way.

Ming Jun originally intended to take those people to the nearest police station, but Huan Sheng told him that something was off about them. He said those people seemed to know him and Xiao Yu, because he had vaguely heard someone mention their names. Those people were probably after the siblings.

Upon hearing this, Old Luo, who had been leaning back in his chair, sat up straight abruptly, his eyes flashing with an unfathomable glint.

Across from him, Old Su's brows furrowed tightly.

"Where are those people now?" Old Luo asked in a deep voice.

“They have been taken to the nearest police station, but Mingjun did not allow the police officers to get involved. He only asked them to keep a temporary watch over those people.”

"Have you told Yan Cheng?" Old Luo asked again.

"Mingjun has already called Director Li. Director Li is in a meeting at the bureau. His secretary, Xiao Yang, answered the phone and reported to Director Li."

Mingjun just told me that Director Li has sent people from the headquarters to take over those people; they should be at the police station soon.

Where are the cheers and laughter now?

“Furong has already taken them home. I just called home to ask, and Furong said that Huansheng and Xiaoyu are in good spirits.”

It's perfectly normal. This little situation is nothing to the brother and sister; they've encountered far more dangerous situations before.

Hearing that his grandson and granddaughter were unharmed, Old Luo breathed a slight sigh of relief, but his expression immediately turned grim again.
