Gu Ning was aware that Xiao Changchun was a good upright official, so he wouldn’t disregard it once he learned of it. In addition, Xiao Changchun still owed her a big favor, so she believed that he would help her this time. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have turned to him for help.

However, although she knew that Xiao Changchun wouldn’t refuse, she was still very polite. She needed his help after all, and it would be rude if she took it for granted.

“What?” Xiao Changchun was surprised, but didn’t think that it was an uncommon thing in politics.

“Did you just say that you have collected clear evidence of Zhao Hongwen’s and Shen Guangli’s crimes?”

Normally, senior officials hid their dirty secrets very well from other people. Even the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection couldn’t easily discover it, but Gu Ning did it in a very short time. He knew that Gu Ning wasn’t an ordinary girl, but her unbelievable ability still shocked him.

Mrs. Xiao immediately turned to look at Xiao Changchun with great surprise. She knew that the caller was Gu Ning, so she was very surprised. Besides, she had heard of Zhao Hongwen and Shen Guangli, especially Zhao Hongwen. She was aware that they weren’t good people, but Gu Ning was able to collect evidence of their crimes, which amazed her.

“Yeah, I have the evidence in my hands right now,” Gu Ning replied.

“Since you already have the evidence, I must do something,” Xiao Changchun said.

Although normally the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection would handle it, he was willing to deal with it in person for Gu Ning. Gu Ning had saved his life before after all, so he couldn’t reject it when she needed his help.

In addition, Gu Ning actually did him a favor yet again, because Zhao Hongwen was one of his enemies in politics.

“Thanks, Uncle Xiao,” Gu Ning said.

“My pleasure, and I should be thanking you instead.” Xiao Changchun was very honest.

Gu Ning then sent the evidence to him by an email.

When Xiao Changchun hung up the call with Gu Ning, Mrs. Xiao asked him what happened.

Xiao Changchun told Mrs. Xiao everything, and Mrs. Xiao had a deeper impression of Gu Ning. She couldn’t believe that Gu Ning was only 19 this year.

After that, Xiao Changchun went to his study to read the email Gu Ning sent to him. When he read it, he was shocked and angry at Zhao Hongwen and Shen Guangli. He was shocked because the evidence Gu Ning collected was very persuasive and Gu Ning’s ability impressed him once more. He was angry at them because of what they had done.

Even though Xiao Changchun clearly knew that they weren’t good people, he was still surprised by their bad and illegal deeds.

Because it was late, he decided to deal with it tomorrow. However, he didn’t sleep well that night.

…

Zhao Hongwen and Shen Guangli, who had no idea about what would happen to them yet, were still enjoying their success.

Their plan didn’t go well today, but they still had another plan which they planned to put into action tomorrow.

…

At about 10 pm, Leng Shaoting called Gu Ning.

“Ningning, what are you doing?” Leng Shaoting asked.

“I’m missing you,” Gu Ning said.

She was printing the criminal evidence in her room.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting’s breath suddenly became heavy. “I miss you too.”

They had only been apart from each other for a few days, but he already missed Gu Ning very much.

“I’ll stay in City F for another two days before I fly back to City B for a couple of days and go to the capital afterwards,” Gu Ning said.

“Do you need to deal with something in City F?” Leng Shaoting asked.

“Yeah.” Gu Ning then told Leng Shaoting what had happened to Qin Haozhi. “I found the evidence, and Xiao Changchun agreed to help, so I believe it won’t be a problem, but I need to stay in City F to see what will happen next.”

“Sure,” Leng Shaoting said.

“Oh, how’s our mother now?” Leng Shaoting asked with concern.

“What?” Gu Ning was struck dumb for a second, then realized that Leng Shaoting was talking about Gu Man.

“We’re not engaged yet!” She felt a little shy.

“Do you want to regret it? No way. You’re my girl for life,” Leng Shaoting said.

Gu Ning felt very sweet, but still said, “Well, if you dare to treat me badly, I’ll leave you.”

“I won’t give you a chance,” Leng Shaoting said. He promised to treat Gu Ning as well as he could.

Gu Ning beamed with happiness. There was n.o.body who would cherish her like Leng Shaoting would.

They chatted with each other for about an hour before they went to bed.

…

The next day, Gu Ning visited Qin Zixun’s family in the morning.

Qin Zixun and his mother were up very early that morning, so they waited for Gu Ning’s arrival together. Qin Haozheng and Qin Yifan also came at 8 am. They cared about Qin Haozhi, so they wanted to arrive earlier. Qin Yiqing and her husband came at 8:30 am.

When Gu Ning showed up at 9 am, all the members of the Qin family were present.
