Listening to Zeng Yingrong's words, Political Commissioner Zhong forced a wry smile.
His heart was still aflame.
But he let it be.
As long as it didn't escalate, it would be fine.

Mr. Li was bewildered.
He was eating and drinking with several friends, discussing business matters.
Suddenly, the door to the private room was kicked open, and several burly soldiers rushed in and surrounded him.
Seeing the uniforms on these soldiers, he immediately thought of the incident that had happened that night.
He asked them what they wanted with him, but they didn't respond, just gestured for him to cooperate.
He didn't want to cooperate, but given the circumstances, if he didn't, he'd probably be carried out.
The others in the room watched as Mr. Li was taken away, looking at each other in confusion, completely unaware of what had happened.
One of them called Lu Xiaotian, who, upon learning the news, immediately went into hiding.
