Beautiful beauties in the 80s courtyard

Chapter 689 Rotten Fish and Shrimp
Wang Zhiguo had never spoken such harsh words to Liu Dahui before.

This was the first time since they had known each other.

And the words were very harsh.

It's practically like peeling off a layer of skin from Liu Dahui.

Liu Dahui blushed deeply, feeling utterly ashamed and embarrassed.

He was definitely uncomfortable when Wang Zhiguo ruthlessly exposed the secret thoughts hidden in the corner of his heart.

Wang Zhiguo continued bluntly, "Liu Dahui, you have lost your most basic principles in some areas. You have no bottom line whatsoever."

Do you really not know how significant this college entrance examination is for the test takers?
Don't you realize how significant this is to our country?

Such a fair and just exam was flawed because of some subpar candidates, causing the public to question us.

Even if you weren't involved or unaware of it, you are still a sinner!
Because this worthless scoundrel did this under your protection.

Without you, Liu Dahui, what would Zhou Shanshan be?
How did she gain the ability to work in the education sector? How was she promoted? How could she possibly have had the opportunity to do such a thing?

Wang Zhiguo became increasingly angry and stern as he spoke.

On the other end of the line, Liu Dahui's hands trembled and his face turned ashen. He wanted to hang up, but a last shred of reason held him back, and he gritted his teeth and didn't.

"I know you don't want to hear what I'm saying now. You ignored everything the three of us said to you back then."

There's nothing wrong with liking someone, but besides liking someone, you also have to be a decent human being. You can't lose your basic moral compass.

The candidates whose identities were stolen were mostly powerless, without connections, and were hoping to change their fate through this exam.

But these worthless scoundrels have no humanity whatsoever. For their own benefit, to arrange jobs for their families, for money... they are capable of doing the most heinous things imaginable.

That's utterly shameless!
How dare you ask me how to handle this now?

Liu Dahui, if you were just an ordinary farmer, I might tell you some things you want to know.

But you're not!
I think you've been high and mighty for too long, and you really don't know what it's like to walk on the street anymore. I won't tell you anything you want to ask me now.

If you still want to be a decent human being, calm down and think about this whole thing from beginning to end.

After saying all this, Wang Zhiguo, who was also feeling quite upset, hung up the phone.

Because he knew that from now on, he and Liu Dahui would never be able to be together again.

Liu Dahui felt his vision go black. He stumbled to the sofa, slumped down on it, and after a few breaths, leaned back against the sofa and looked up at the ceiling.

Can he stay calm?
I can't calm down, because once I do, many things become clear.

He is not a fool.

He doesn't need any analysis or reminders from others; he understands it all on his own.

But what can be done?
If he were to say now that Zhou Shanshan is wrong, that she is a morally corrupt, unscrupulous, and utterly depraved woman, a vicious woman who used his power to bully and nearly harmed many young people.

When he said those things, it proved that he was wrong; he was wrong from beginning to end.

This also proves that his parents, colleagues, and comrades were right to criticize him.

They were right to say all the bad things about Zhou Shanshan.

He originally wanted to prove himself right, and to prove that choosing Zhou Shanshan was the right decision.

But now the undeniable facts are right in front of him, and Liu Dahui feels like he can't breathe properly, and his heart is clenching with pain.

So now he's just a joke in other people's eyes, right?

He is a man who has received his just deserts.

This is retribution for a heartless ingrate who abandoned his childhood sweetheart and fiancée. His parents' words proved true: he's a blind and stupid fool.

So what should he do now?
In order to prove that you are not wrong, are you going to go down a dead-end road?

The key question is whether he can continue down this path.

Zhou Shanshan's matter has caused quite a stir. He knew about it three days ago, but he had no evidence. Zhou Shanshan still seemed fearless, so he thought it shouldn't be a big problem.

Looking back now... the problem was huge, but at the time he didn't dare to think about the serious aspects.

Or, as Wang Zhiguo said, they should calm down completely and rationally analyze the impact and consequences of Zhou Shanshan's incident.

Once he calmed down, he realized that he couldn't stay out of it.

Liu Dahui's expression changed, he grabbed the clothes next to him, and quickly walked towards the door.

Being confronted by someone and voluntarily confessing are completely different things.

Even if it's after get off work hours, I have to go out immediately.

He lives in the district government's residential compound.

Naturally, I lived in the best house in the area, and I ran into my neighbors as I went out.

There were few colleagues left, because almost all of them wisely hid away.

After all, Zhou Shanshan is the wife of the deputy district head and one of the top women in this compound. Who wouldn't know her?

Just now, Zhou Shanshan was taken away by the police, and the whole compound was shocked.

This is no small matter.

Some people were secretly pleased, thinking that Liu Dahui would definitely be implicated. His position might be at risk, and perhaps that would give them an opportunity.

Those who had a good relationship with him were furious.

I don't know what Liu Dahui was thinking, how could he have gotten Zhou Shanshan to do such a thing?

They're husband and wife, together every day, didn't they notice anything?

Moreover, Zhou Shanshan received money, reportedly more than 10,000 yuan.

Didn't Liu Dahui notice when Zhou Shanshan was spending money?

Then, when Zhou Shanshan arranged jobs for her family members, did Liu Dahui not know?

This man was furious, but he knew he had no right to criticize Liu Dahui. Besides, it was just an investigation and no conclusions had been reached yet, so he naturally couldn't ask about it.

But not wanting to stand outside and watch the excitement, he simply stayed inside the house.

Some elderly men, women, brothers, and sisters who saw Zhou Shanshan being led out to watch the commotion deliberately stood by the roadside, looking in the direction of her house.

Then, seeing him come out, Secretary Sun's mother asked with great concern, "Did your Zhou Shanshan get involved in that matter at the Education Bureau, or did you take her to find out what happened? Xiao Liu, this is no small matter. I heard it has been reported to the Beijing Education Commission. I think the higher-ups will definitely take it seriously, after all, this is the first exam, so you have to keep it in mind."

An old man next to him frowned and said, "Xiao Liu, don't act impulsively right now. Trust your leader, okay?"

Don't let his appearance fool you; he's an ordinary old man, but he's actually a retired district head.

The two of them hadn't spoken for a long time.

Although Liu Dahui has only lived in this compound for a few years, he doesn't have a good relationship with the retired district chief.

It wasn't that Liu Dahui didn't take the old district chief seriously; it was because the old district chief ignored Liu Dahui completely.
