Shocking! My Rugged Husband is the Hidden Tycoon in the 70s Novel-Chapter 361: Isn’t This Blindness?

Xu Ruiyang naturally wouldn’t say who mentioned it. Together with him was a junior officer, who had just started his job and was still full of vigor.

"You don’t need to worry about who it is. Right now, we need to bring Xu Qinghuan here to confront the issue. If Xu Qinghuan was indeed coerced, then you all should be prepared to be sentenced. Do you realize that your actions are illegal?"

Jiang Xingye laughed in anger, "Fine, go ahead and bring Xu Qinghuan here for questioning."

The junior officer felt threatened, "What do you mean, do you intend to bully her again after we leave?"

Jiang Xingye was so furious that he stood up abruptly, ready to act, but Jiang Baohua held him back, "Director Xu, go ahead and call Xu Qinghuan. To be honest, we can’t threaten Xu Qinghuan, and even Director Tang wouldn’t have dared back then."

Xu Ruiyang didn’t quite understand this. As a new official, he always wanted to make some achievements.

The junior officer left the team office and, under the guidance of a child, went to Xu Qinghuan’s house. She was living alone and had nothing to do, so she went up the mountain to gather wild vegetables.

She heard someone say, "This place used to be full of shepherd’s purse in this season. Who is this, picking them so early before they even grow big?"

"It just rained yesterday. We came today, and the mushrooms are gone too. Everything’s picked clean before growing big. Who’s so hungry that they can’t wait?"

"Hey, come look, there are footprints heading into the mountain. Whose could they be?"

Xu Qinghuan walked over to see that they were a woman’s footprints on the grass, which had disappeared after a night of rain.

She couldn’t help but look toward the mountain, lost in thought.

Hearing someone call her, Xu Qinghuan came down the mountain. The junior officer was waiting at the foot of the mountain and, upon seeing her, nodded his chin, "Xu Qinghuan, we need to ask you some questions, please come with us to the team office."

Xu Qinghuan didn’t mind the attitude, "Alright, I’ll just drop my basket off at home and then go."

"Carry it with you, it’s not heavy, we can talk after we’re done."

Xu Qinghuan was somewhat displeased. Why should she carry it over when her house was on the way? She couldn’t help but laugh, "What’s the rush? Sorry, this basket is too heavy, I can’t carry it."

After saying that, she ignored the officer and walked straight home.

The junior officer caught up, "Xu Qinghuan, don’t take this the wrong way. We’re here at Shangjiang Team specifically to investigate the issue of you being coerced into dating Jiang Xingye. It’s for your own good, so please cooperate."

His words were heard by many people, who gathered around, looking at Xu Qinghuan with peculiar eyes.

Was Xu Qinghuan coerced into dating Jiang Xingye?

So Xu Qinghuan really despised the rogue Jiang Xingye; was she forced to date him because he was the team leader’s nephew?

Now Xu Qinghuan couldn’t stand Jiang Xingye anymore and reported it to the authorities?

For a moment, before Xu Qinghuan even reached the team office, the news spread throughout the Shangjiang Team.

Xu Qinghuan stared at the junior officer as if he were clueless, "Since it’s about me, please cooperate with me too!"

She returned the basket to her home and then followed the junior officer to the team office. By this time, the place was packed with onlookers, so crowded it was impermeable.

"Fine, with so many people, even better." The junior officer dared not trouble the leader and asked directly.

"I’d like everyone here to be witnesses, and I want you, Xu Qinghuan, to believe that our fellow members are just and will speak up for you against any grievances or unfair treatment, even if the organization isn’t always with you, the members are here for you."

Xu Qinghuan exchanged a look with Jiang Xingye and asked, "What are you all here for?"

The junior officer was unhappy with Xu Qinghuan’s attitude, "Xu Qinghuan, we received a report claiming you were coerced into dating Jiang Xingye by Jiang Baohua, is that true?"

Xu Qinghuan chuckled, "Who reported that? Coercion, you say, yet as the person involved, I know nothing about it?"

The members burst out laughing.

Someone laughed, "Xu Qinghuan coerced into dating Xingye, yet she’s nice to him out of coercion?"

"Who was the blind one to report this?"

"Exactly, Xu Qinghuan is so good to Xingye, could she really be coerced? They’re about to get married, and now someone says it’s under coercion? Preposterous!"

The junior officer’s face turned sour, "Are all of you at Shangjiang Team so used to being oppressed by Jiang Baohua, the team leader? Have you, Xu Qinghuan, forgotten that we are in a new society, where people oppressed aren’t afraid to resist and speak the truth?"

Xu Qinghuan recognized Xu Ruiyang, "Director Xu, I recall when you were an officer you weren’t this muddled. Are you afraid you can’t suppress a wise person so you hire someone like this, to muddle up directions?"

The junior officer, angered, said, "Xu Qinghuan, we’re here for you because someone reported you were persecuted; that’s why we’re here."

"Who reported it? Who’s so kind to report it for me? If it’s for my benefit, I should thank them. Please tell me the name, who is this kind person?"

The junior officer responded, "Do you admit then that Jiang Baohua indeed persecuted you, forcing you to date his nephew?"

Xu Qinghuan arched an eyebrow at him, "Don’t you understand human language? I asked you to reveal who reported it, I need to know who helped me!"

The junior officer said, "It was an anonymous report. We only received the complaint letter, and even if it were named, we couldn’t reveal who it was!"

"So, are you here to rescue me or to frame Captain Uncle?" Xu Qinghuan questioned,

"Director Xu, is this the hasty way of handling things at the educated youth office now? Receiving an anonymous report and not discussing it with the person involved, not conducting a preliminary investigation, and causing such a commotion?"

Xu Ruiyang was a bit embarrassed too, "Xu Qinghuan, this is also our work protocol. Since we received the complaint letter, we couldn’t pretend nothing happened.

Now that all the members are here, if you have any grievances, or if you indeed experienced any unfair treatment, you can tell us, and we can take you away immediately."

Jiang Xingye leapt up and approached Xu Qinghuan, his fierce eyes glaring as if ready to throw the two out at any moment.

Xu Qinghuan grasped his wrist, her thumb gently stroking his wrist to soothe his anger, "Director Xu, if I want to leave Shangjiang Team, I wouldn’t trouble you to take me, I can leave myself.

The reason I’m still here is because my fiancé is here. I’ll ask again, who reported it? If you won’t tell me, I’ll find out myself. Captain Uncle originally wasn’t keen on becoming a commune director, but now with all this fuss, I think he should consider it."

She slowly looked around everyone and finally settled her gaze on Xu Ruiyang’s face, "Or else in the future any stray cat or dog can bully their way in!"
