Chapter 694: Chapter 694: Fire Breaks Out at the Chiang Family’s Rear

Jiang Conghe was furious. From the moment he got off the train to seeing his family, nothing went smoothly, especially with his daughter. In just one evening, he felt he had gained considerably more white hair.

He was thinking about how to deal with Qi Taiguo, to make him kneel and apologize, to strip him of his military uniform.

A mere company commander had the audacity to be so arrogant—if left unchecked, wouldn’t anyone feel free to trample on the Chiang Family’s dignity? This time, he absolutely could not let it go!

Jiang Conghe dropped hints to Commissar Tan and others, waiting for Qi Taiguo’s arrival, eager to see how he would humiliate him.

However, what awaited Qi Taiguo wasn’t Qi Taiguo’s arrival, but a long-distance call from Mr. Taishan.

"Such a big incident happened, and you didn’t even think to discuss it with me first?" Loo Linjun, Jiang Conghe’s father-in-law, roared at him over the phone.

Jiang Conghe’s brows furrowed. No matter the occasion, his father-in-law always barked orders at him as if he hadn’t changed at all from the days when he was just a squad leader—even now that he was a commander.

He held back his annoyance, responding dismissively, "Father-in-law, these trivial matters—I didn’t want to bother you with them, so I didn’t mention it!"

"Trivial matters? Qingqing has fallen ill and you call that trivial? Are you waiting for her to be completely ruined to consider it serious? And what have you two been up to? Shufen caused someone to have a miscarriage?" Loo Linjun interrogated.

Jiang Conghe felt a pang of alarm in his heart. How did his father-in-law know about this?

"Father-in-law, how did you..."

"How did I find out, right? The whole circle is buzzing with it now. The director of the Yanjing Cultural Work Troupe caused someone to lose her baby, all to snatch a company commander for her daughter!" Loo Linjun erupted in a tirade, "Have you lost your minds, spreading such a disgraceful affair around, not ashamed at all? Do both of you care nothing for your reputations and futures? Do you think we’re still living decades ago?"

Jiang Conghe’s mind buzzed.

Spread around, it’s all spread around?

His daughter, Jiang Conghe’s daughter, fell in love with a married man, and his wife helped her to snatch him—and now it’s spread around?

"Now, they’re all saying that the Chiang family uses its power to bully others, without any shame. They’re even digging up your past affairs. I tell you, Shufen and the others have been spoiled to the point of ignorance, and you’re no different? You should have kept such matters under wraps instead of raising such a ruckus. Ah, don’t get too comfortable in your command position yet, I’m telling you!" Loo Linjun’s shrill voice came through the phone.

Jiang Conghe snapped back to reality, "How is this possible? Father-in-law..."

"You think your command position is secure? There are plenty of people eyeing it, and many who wish to see you step down, starting with the Ning Family," Loo Linjun sneered.

The Ning Family, yes, the young and the old in the Ning Family were in business partnerships with Qi Taiguo’s wife.

That Ning Ge brat, a complete rich fool—would he let this opportunity slip?

"It was the Ning Family that spread the word?" Jiang Conghe’s face darkened.

"It doesn’t matter who spread it. What’s done is done; everyone who needs to know, knows. You act without thinking of the consequences, charging ahead is useless when the rear is on fire," Loo Linjun was exasperated, having spent so much money to finally get him transferred back to the Capital, only for him to end up causing more problems than solving.

"You immediately roll back here, secure this key position first, and forget about the troubled waters of Qing City. Also, bring back Shufen and Qingqing. If they refuse, knock them unconscious and drag them back. What a disgrace!" Loo Linjun dropped the bombshell and violently hung up the phone.

The dial tone buzzed in the phone, and Jiang Conghe’s head was still reverberating. How did things turn out this way?
