Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander

Chapter 171: Chapter 171: Selfless and Just

Zhao Feitian listened to Yang Xiong, smiled lightly, and sat back down, seemingly unaware of the elder’s

coldness towards him.

Yan Kai and Gu Junming exchanged a look but remained silent. Yang Xiong didn’t seem to have any intention of

covering anything up, which was good.

Old Song exchanged a few pleasantries before steering the conversation towards the child trafficking gang.

It was reported that Gu Junming and the others encountered violent resistance from the village militia and even

got injured.

Yang Xiong immediately frowned, looking at Zhao Feitian: "Didn’t you say they were all sensible villagers? How

could such a thing happen? Even using knives to hurt people?"

"No, | really don’t know about this! There must have been a slip-up in their instructions. I'm not familiar with

those villagers."

Gu Junming said: "This child is from our village, so why did he end up in a village on the outskirts of the city?"

"This... | don’t know... maybe... maybe just passing through?"

Yan Kai chuckled: "You're in the city and they're in the suburbs; how could they just pass through there?

Moreover, I've investigated that village is notorious for child trafficking, with many children sold from there."

Everyone's faces changed, especially Yang Xiong, who was already frowning.

Zhao Feitian hurriedly said: "Is it that serious? I'm a city dweller and rarely visit there. Askingseems

pointless." He truly was an old hand, with a strong mental fortitude.

Gu Junming said flatly: "Since you intend to adopt a child, you should know how important such matters are. You

should be clear about the child’s origins, shouldn't you? How could you trustingly accept a child without even

meeting these villagers? Didn't the person who delivered the child tell you their identities? Two have confessed

already, frequently contacting you."

Zhao Feitian lifted his head, meeting Gu Junming’s eyes—sharp as knives—and felt a bit flustered, yet he still

smiled.

"It’s my fault. In my eagerness to adopt a child, | neglected the underlying matters. | apologize." He stood up and

sincerely bowed to apologize. How could you prove anything againstwithout evidence?

Gu Junming smiled faintly: "Is that so? Seems you're just well-intentioned but misguided."

As Zhao Feitian was about to relax, Gu Junming continued: "I will thoroughly question the underlying things and

hope you truly have no dealings with them—just a misunderstanding."

Yan Kai added: "They operate systematically, bringing in children without question, even ignoring the holidays,

directly driving to the city in the middle of the night to evade our tracking. They're even bold enough to use

knives; one can see they're used to committing crimes regularly?"

Old Song also said: "Indeed, seems like the work of a habitual gang."

"Elder, | really don’t know!" He began pleading with Yang Xiong.

Yang Xiong said: "If you didn’t do it, what are you worried about? Just cooperate with the investigation; no one

will trouble you."

"Yes, elder." Sweat covered his forehead—does this mean I’m on my own?

Old Song said: "We chere today initially worried—what if you were involved? Should we inform Mr. Yang?

Now that you've claimed it's unrelated, it’s a relief; it has nothing to do with you. We can conduct a proper

investigation."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Feitian regretted deeply—what does this mean? If the investigation reveals something,

am | doomed?

But before he could react, Yan Kai and Gu Junming were already holding his arms, one on each side.

"Alright, since we've all reached a consensus, no need for extra words. Cwith us."

"No! It’s the New Year, and coming with you now is inappropriate; I'm a businessman with sreputation—how

could you just arrestlike this? If it gets out, who will cooperate with me? This ruins my reputation..."

Old Song chuckled: "No need to worry; we've considered that. If you're innocent, we'll personally vouch for you.

If anyone doubts you, just send them to me."

"But this way, what about the Yang Family’s reputation? I'm a relative of the Yang Family..."

Yang Xiong waved: "Don’t say that. It’s merely assisting the investigation—it doesn’t mean you're being

arrested. If you're innocent, we lose nothing. Go on back."

Old Song, seeing the matter settled, breathed a sigh of relief, stood up to bid farewell.

Yang Xiong wanted to invite them for a meal but knew they wouldn't stay, especially with Yun’er around—who

dared linger?

Helplessly, Zhao Feitian was taken away.

Of course, the investigation wasn’t handled by Gu Junming and the others; they were merely key witnesses. The

interrogation was led by the captain of the criminal police squad, an old comrade of Old Song, hence they

provided full assistance.

Yan Kai, seeing the person taken away, breathed a sigh: "Will this old guy ever face justice?"

Gu Junming said: "There'll be a way. Thanks for your help this time."

"No need for thanks. Your holiday doesn’t have many days left; make sure to rest."

"Agreed." Gu Junming smiled. It's tto properly spend stwith Sun Chan.

Yan Kai and Gu Junming bid farewell

Yan Kai, despite being a competitor to Gu Junming and Wang Hu, always conducted himself honorably and never

stooped to such matters, thus having disdain.

Gu Junming said: "I didn’t do it, nothing to worry about."

"Could it be Wang Hu... after all, he’s competing with both of you, and he’s in a challenging position now."

Bai Chuan falsely accused his adoptive father back then—won’t he continue to falsely accuse me? Gu Junming

remained calm, unafraid of these rumors.

"Anyway, better prepare in advance; | must go."

The two were now considered relatives, so they were closer than before.

Gu Junming exchanged a few casual words, saw him into the car, then turned back.

On the way back, Gu Junming’s chest burned with anger. Bai Chuan! All these years, still using the same

disgusting tricks!
