Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander

Chapter 183: Chapter 183: Calm Matters

Widow Wang, despite actually not looking bad, had a sallow complexion due to the years of hardship. She didn’t

want to go to jail and cried, "Actually, it was a cadre who cto me; he toldto say this. If | listened to him,

he’d arrange a good future for my son and daughter and even gavea thousand yuan! | was muddle-

headed... | had no choice! He threatened that if | didn’t obey, my son would never have a job for life. | was truly

deluded!"

Everyone frowned; what ways could a cadre have to arrange jobs for people? It seemed there was something

else going on here.

Suddenly, Widow Wang raised her head, ignoring the snot and tears on her face, and urgently said, "Comrades,

you can treatany way you like, but my son and daughter's jobs have already been decided, you can’t

change them. Otherwise, I'll die right here; | won't let them live like | do! You must promise me!"

Of course, Widow Wang's request was unreasonable, but there was no way to deal with her. Saying no would

have her create a big fuss in the office; she was desperate, a widow long past caring about her dignity. The

authorities could only temporarily lock her up in a small dark room while they quickly sought out the cadre to

understand the situation.

Bai Chuan hadn't wasted his years in the army and news reached him early.

He smashed a teacup! And cursed in his mind. He never imagined that Gu Junming was much smarter than that

foster father! Who'd have thought he had such a clever mind? That cadre was obviously sent by Bai Chuan, but

now he must be silenced.

Before those people could reach the cadre, Bai Chuan called him: "You know what to say, right? You can’t be

saved now, but your future is still long. You made a mistake and will need to leave the army, but after this, what

you do will be different, and | can help you. If you reveal me, no one will take care of you, and your brother is

also in the army, he will need help in the future too. Think this through."

The cadre thought, Bai Chuan has been around for years and has a certain level of skill. Now his granddaughter

is married to the Wang Family, her future is limitless, not someone to provoke. This matter was probably done for

Wang Hu.

If Bai Chuan were implicated, his brother wouldn't have a good future either, so he gritted his teeth and took the

blhimself.

He admitted to framing Gu Junming with the widow: "I've always been jealous of Gu Junming’s ability. We

graduated from the sschool, why is he already at the regimental level while I'm just a cadre? | just didn’t

want him to rise; it’s my fault. No one directed me. | simply can’t stand him!"

Gu Junming wasn’t familiar with him, merely acquaintances at best; seeing he took the blhimself, he slightly

frowned and said nothing further.

If he didn’t admit it, could they use torture to extract a confession? So they quickly decided that he would be

forcibly retired without any job arrangements.

He left the army with a disgraced look.

The leader asked Gu Junming about the widow's situation: "She’s been locked up, causing a hunger strike, even

attempting suicide, all to secure her children’s jobs. What's your take on this matter..."

Gu Junming replied, "We can’t do things without principles; her children cin against the regulations. Are we

supposed to keep her daughter just because she can kick up such a fuss?"

"But if during the New Year someone dies because of this commotion..."

"I understand, I'll handle this myself." Gu Junming gave a salute and went directly to the confinement room.

Widow Wang was making a scene, her hair disheveled, her voice hoarse. Having been confined there all

morning, she was focused on one thing: whether she begged or caused a commotion, she would give her

children a future, even if she had to die in the process. Anyway, she was a person with no shame, having faced

countless insults throughout her life. As long as her children had prospects, nothing else mattered.

Seeing Gu Junming arrive, Widow Wang felt ashamed but started crying immediately, "Mr. Gu, | know it's my

fault, you've been wronged, but | had no choice... Your army is so large, it wouldn't miss just one daughter of

mine. Letgo to jail instead, I'm willing to bear my guilt, but don’t let my daughter be dismissed!"

Gu Junming said calmly, "When | helped you before, | didn’t expect you to treatthis way."

"I'm sorry, | had no choice, I'm all they have..."

"You're not the only one with such a situation! If everyone we helped later turned against us, how chaotic would

it become? If we fulfill your demands just because you cry and shout, what about everyone else?"

"You're not short of one..."

Widow Wang closed her mouth. They hadn't refused her opportunity; continuing her tantrum wouldn't benefit

her children.

She looked at Gu Junming, tears streaming down, "I'm sorry, Mr. Gu, | was wrong."

Gu Junming said, "Mm, stop causing trouble; it'll affect the children, which isn’t good. You need to return the

money you took; if you don’t, you'll end up in court."

Widow Wang responded, lowered her head, and dejectedly walked out. She felt too ashamed to face Gu Junming;

as he had wholeheartedly helped before, she had nearly gotten him into trouble by turning against him.

This matter ended as it was. Widow Wang's children turned out well: her daughter later joined the military, and

her son also stayed at the steel factory. But Gu Junming no longer dealt with her issues.

Although Bai Chuan was not caught, there are no secrets in this world, and quite a few people knew he was

behind orchestrating this matter; they all viewed him with much contempt.
