Rebirth 77: From Beachcombing to Becoming a Tycoon and Spoiling My Wife

Sun Zhigang immediately tensed up, his eyes filled with panic.

How did Zhang Ning figure out that his son had been rescued?

But the most important thing right now is to clarify things. Zhang Ning has no evidence to prove anything, so we absolutely cannot let the secretary go down to investigate personally.

"Secretary Qiao, I did not cover up my son. All procedures were legal and compliant, and can be verified."

My son has reformed himself well in prison and has made meritorious contributions by reporting crimes, so he was released with a four-year reduction in his sentence.

Don't listen to Zhang Ning's nonsense; he's retaliating against my son!

Zhang Ning said coldly.

"You said she reformed herself properly, so why did she commit acts against a woman's will after she was released?"

"You say he has made significant contributions, Sun Chuan, what significant contributions have you made? You don't even know yourself, do you?"

Faced with Zhang Ning's question, Sun Chuan stammered and looked at his father repeatedly, unaware of any significant meritorious service.

His father had promised to get him out of prison when he was imprisoned.

"Me. This, that..."

He stood there for a long time, unable to utter a single word.

At that moment, everyone felt that something was wrong.

Qiao Tie's gaze was sharp and piercing, his expression was solemn and dignified, his tone was upright and authoritative, and his words were firm and resounding.

"I will have people thoroughly investigate what's going on here. If there is any cover-up of criminals allowing them to be released early, they will be dealt with severely."

He turned to look at the militiamen waiting in the side and gave the order in a deep voice.

"Take Sun Chuan down and keep him under surveillance. I will contact the police immediately to bring him back to the station for detailed interrogation!"

The militiamen present were all from the village and were under the command and dispatch of Sun Zhigang; they were considered his subordinates.

Upon seeing that their boss's son was about to be arrested, the men hesitated instantly, their eyes darting around, their hands and feet stiffening. No one dared to make a move, and the scene fell into a stalemate.

But Qiao Tie was the Party Secretary of the Prefectural Committee, and his rank was clear. He was a superior leader, and his orders could not be disobeyed.

After a brief hesitation, the group dared not hesitate any longer and immediately stepped forward, grabbing Sun Chuan's arms from both sides and subduing him on the spot.

The militiamen under the village secretary personally arrested the son of a village cadre. This absurd scene left all the villagers present dumbfounded.

Sun Zhigang's eyes were filled with despair. Everything was over. If he had known that Yang Bai had connections with the Party Secretary of the Prefectural Committee, he would never have let his son marry Zhang Ning.

All of this is the Zhang family's fault, and they even said that the Party Secretary of the Prefectural Committee was invited by some little Li.

It's all bullshit.

If he is brought down, Zhang Fu's family will not have an easy time either!

"Zhang Fu, you'd better still have any regard for your daughter's feelings, or I'll kill you!"

Sun Zhigang was so angry he was about to vomit blood. Watching his son being taken away, he quickly left as well.

Zhang Fu, standing to the side, was both shocked and frightened, trembling uncontrollably, and all his previous arrogance and confidence had vanished.

He quickly grabbed Wang Fang beside him, his voice trembling, and hurriedly spoke.

"Honey, what are we going to do now? Sun Zhigang will definitely hold a grudge against us and cause us trouble later!"

Wang Fang, however, was far more composed than Zhang Fu.

She looked up at Zhang Ning, who was not far away. Looking at her biological daughter, who had been mistreated by her husband for eighteen years and had been tricked into selling twice, a glint of calculation flashed in her eyes.

She already had a plan in mind, and said firmly in a low voice.

"What else can we do? Look at Zhang Ning, he's now aligned himself with Yang Bai and has a powerful backer."

This girl is soft-hearted; all she ever hoped for was for us to show her more care and love.

We went along with her wishes, coaxed her into agreeing, and everything became much easier.

"As long as we can coax her to recognize this family again and return to our home, Yang Bai will naturally be considered our son-in-law."

With Yang Bai backing us up, the days of living a life of luxury and pleasure are yet to come. Why would we need to fear a disgraced Sun Zhigang?

From now on, when the commune cadres see us, they must all show us respect and keep their heads down!

Having made up her mind, Wang Fang immediately changed her demeanor, plastering a fawning smile on her face. She quickly walked up to Zhang Ning, her tone gentle to the point of being obsequious.

"Ningning, it's all your parents' fault. We were foolish. We mistreated you and wronged you before. From now on, when you come back, there will always be a place for you in this family, and we will never treat you badly again."

"Those little squabbles were just neighbors joking around, please don't take them to heart or hold it against us. You haven't eaten much, so sit down and eat properly."

Yang Bai, who was standing to the side, took in the family’s completely different faces before and after, and felt a wave of nausea and disgust.

Just moments ago, he was aggressive and ruthless, single-mindedly focused on selling his daughter for money, displaying an arrogant and overbearing attitude.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, he immediately suppressed his anger, bowed his head and softened, pretending to be a kind father and daughter, loving and harmonious.

Such hypocrisy and pretentious behavior—changing one's mind faster than flipping through a book—has simply lowered the bar.

When they put on this act of feigned warmth, don't they feel even a little bit embarrassed or disgusted?

Yang Bai couldn't hold back any longer; his throat tightened, and he gagged softly.

Seeing this, Zhang Ning's heart tightened. She quickly walked to Yang Bai's side, gently patted his back, and asked softly with concern in her eyes.

"Yang Bai, are you alright? Are you feeling unwell?"

Yang Bai slowly shook his head, suppressing the discomfort in his heart, his tone filled with strong disgust.

"I'm fine, it's just that Wang Fang's appearance is so disgusting that I almost threw up my dinner from the night before."

These words were blunt and harsh. Wang Fang's lips twitched violently, and the anger in her heart surged up instantly. Her nails almost dug into her palms, but she dared not lash out on the spot.

She forced down her resentment, maintained a kind smile, and braced herself for the situation.

"Good son-in-law, what are you saying? I was indeed confused and wrong before, but we have sincerely admitted our mistakes and corrected them."

No matter what, you will always be our good son-in-law and good daughter. Family members never hold grudges overnight.

Yang Bai looked at her shameless audacity and secretly chuckled through gritted teeth.

He had seen countless shameless people in his past life, but he had never seen anyone so utterly shameless, selfish, and mean-spirited.

Even Liu Caixia back then was nothing compared to Wang Fang.

If she had had any shame back then, what would be the point of having the moon now? She could have simply used her shame to block the planet from hitting Earth.

"Holding grudges for tomorrow? To hell with your 'holding grudges for tomorrow.' You abused Ningning for eighteen years, sold your daughter twice, and you just let it go with a 'holding grudges for tomorrow'?"

"Then what else do you want to do? Ningning is my daughter, it's not your place to make decisions!"

Wang Fang finally couldn't hold back and shouted it out.

She even suspected that Yang Bai was deliberately trying to make things difficult for both families. His family had already made concessions, but Yang Bai was still relentlessly attacking them.
