Chapter 1035: Chapter 1035: Investigation
Upon hearing these words, Yu Shaoyan felt a pang in his heart. His sister had passed away early, and his niece had been raised by adoptive parents. But before she could grow up, they too were gone.
This child has faced almost nothing but misfortune.
No wonder her tone carried such helplessness and melancholy.
"Xiaoxiao, don’t say that. Even though you’ve lost your mom, you still have your grandparents and uncle. We are all your family members. Remember, you’re not alone in this world. You have family, and your brother and sister treat you very well.
They practically treasure you like a precious gem.
Now you also have us."
Yu Feixue, worried that her previous words might have hurt Bai Xiao, hugged her shoulders and said, "Sister, rest assured, from now on you’ll have your elder sister watching over you. We are all your family."
Bai Xiao smiled, "Don’t think too much of it, I was just speaking casually. If you’re always so alarmed and make a fuss, we won’t be able to have a conversation, let alone joke around in the future."
She really wasn’t wallowing in self-pity.
In this life, she already had more than enough. Compared to her past life, she is now so happy that no words can describe it.
The refusal to settle in this life has made her what she is. noveldrama
And she has gained more family and friends than in her previous life.
The girl who was once lonely and imprisoned like a captive now possesses all the happiness in the world.
Returning to her grandmother’s home, a meal of fried sauce noodles made her completely satisfied.
She simply couldn’t help it; it was too delicious.
The sauce was oily and fragrant, the noodles were hand-rolled by her grandmother and cooked perfectly. Topped with tender green cucumber shreds, bright red carrot shreds, yellow soybean sprouts, soybeans, and then the fried sauce placed right in the center of the freshly cooked hand-rolled noodles. Mixing it well and slurping a big mouthful, the taste was simply divine.
Bai Xiao ate two bowls in one go.
The main reason was that it was too delicious.
Not to mention the authentic taste, most importantly, Bai Xiao hadn’t had such a delicious fried sauce noodle in a long time, it was truly an irresistible temptation.
Her grandparents watched her eat so heartily, both of them smiling so brightly that their faces seemed to blossom, the wrinkles on their faces even smoothed out.
With eyes full of kindness.
The family gathered around the table, eating and chatting about everyday matters.
They were eating amidst the lively atmosphere, the atmosphere harmonious.
Someone knocked on the door.
Auntie went to open the door.
The old couple rarely got so happy, and the auntie was also happy.
"Granny, Grandpa, it’s police officers, they said they’re looking for Mr. Yu."
Behind the auntie were two police officers in uniform.
The dining table fell silent at once.
Yu Shaoyan stood up and greeted them with a smile, "Hello, I am Yu Shaoyan. Are you looking for me?"
Thinking it was something related to work.
The two police officers glanced at Yu Shaoyan, "Comrade Yu Shaoyan, we are from the academy. Please come with us."
The academy?
At this moment, Yu Shaoyan realized something was wrong. The academy was only for investigating illegal and disciplinary acts by officials, so finding him couldn’t be a good thing.
"Could you two please show your credentials?"
Bai Xiao’s first reaction was that there was a problem.
Yu Shaoyan was not a person who engaged in corruption and bribery; in her past life, she knew him as someone who was honest and dedicated.
Moreover, when she got to know Yu Shaoyan, there was no such thing on record.
The uncle she knows in this life is also not that kind of person.
So how could this kind of situation arise?
The two officers from the academy were taken aback by Bai Xiao, surprised that a young girl had such a sense of vigilance.
They immediately took out their work credentials and showed them to Yu Shaoyan.
These credentials were certainly not fake.
As a public official, he was of course aware of their internal measures regarding credential protection.
"Comrade Yu Shaoyan, please cooperate with us in the investigation and come with us."
No matter the reason! They were here to execute official duties today.
Yu Shaoyan realized something had happened, but still picked up his coat and put it on, fastening the button on his Chinese tunic collar.
"Xiaoxue, tell your mom I won’t be coming home in the next few days. You need to take good care of mom."
Not wanting to worry his parents here, "Mom and Dad, don’t worry, I’ll be back soon."
He had a clear conscience, and wasn’t afraid of the investigation.
Yu Feixue wouldn’t stand for it, "If comrades from the academy are taking someone away, at least let us know what’s going on. Even if it is to cooperate with an investigation, you should explain what kind of matter we are to cooperate with, you can’t just take someone without any reason."
Her nature was to get to the bottom of things.
She couldn’t just let her father go with these academy officers in the dark, knowing nothing.
"Young lady, this matter is not something you can know! This is an internal investigation. Mr. Yu should understand that we are acting on duty and is requested to cooperate with us." Their attitude solemn, neither servile nor overbearing, indicating they were not prepared to say more, nor were they allowed to.
Yu Shaoyan smiled, "Alright, Xiaoxue, don’t worry. If a man stands upright, there is no fear of crooked shadows."
And he went away with the two academy officers.
The old folks hadn’t comprehended what just happened, and the person was taken away.
Bai Xiao instinctively felt something was off; this incident was too strange.
The academy investigating Mr. Yu, a top candidate for the next appointment, could only be due to someone reporting him, or implication by others.
"Xiaoxiao, what should we do? What should we do?"
Yu Feixue had never encountered such a situation and was a bit flustered.
Bai Xiao comforted her by holding her shoulders, "It’s okay. The academy just needs to clear things up and will release uncle. Don’t worry. I’ll look into it, and An Big Brother, see what you can do."
The old couple was calm; they had seen many great storms and waves, this was nothing.
Compared to the house raids and being sent down, this was nothing.
They had faith in their son’s character and conduct; as long as he hadn’t done anything unethical, there was no fear of investigation. Besides, they had some connections, and finding out what was going on shouldn’t be a problem.
"Little An, Xiaoxiao, don’t worry. Little An is from the military, not part of the academy’s system. Don’t trouble him. We will naturally find out about it. After all, these old bones still have some connections, rest assured."
The grandmother’s composure quickly calmed Yu Feixue down! Indeed, they still had grandparents on their side.
The most formidable ones in this house were the grandparents.
"I’ll make some calls, you all go upstairs and rest, don’t make a fuss, it’ll be fine." The grandfather urged them away.
There was no need for the juniors to be on edge and since Bai Xiao and An Zhiyuan had only just returned today, encountering such a matter made the grandfather somewhat helpless.
Bai Xiao shook her head! Insisting, "Grandfather, we are a family. We have the right to know if there is anything that requires help, we too will be relentless. Instead of having us speculate in the room, it would be better if we are here and involved."
The kids had grown up.
