After rebirth, I handed over my past life information to the country

Gu Ning frowned, "But, he just got married today, isn't this too cruel?"

Shui Mutian also nodded, indicating that he agreed with Gu Ning's opinion.

"I understand what you are thinking, but the law is ruthless. I hope you can understand and help persuade him." Jiang Ze looked at them with a firm tone.

Gu Ning took a deep breath, "Okay, Uncle Jiang, we will do our best."

The three of them walked out of the room. Gu Ning and Shui Mutian looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes.

After seeing Jiang Ze off, Gu Ning sighed, "Tell me, why are Zhan Zhou and Ji Huan so unlucky?"

"These two poor people finally got together, but now they have to face separation again."

"Shui Mutian, how many years do you think Zhan Zhou would normally be sentenced to?"

Shui Mutian sighed, "His situation is indeed tricky."

"The specific sentence will be determined based on a number of factors, such as his motive for the crime, the means, the consequences, and whether he has a criminal record."

"But considering that his behavior this time involves serious criminal offenses, I'm afraid it won't be resolved in a few years."

After hearing this, Gu Ning felt even more heavy-hearted.

She knew the love between Zhan Zhou and Ji Huan, and she also knew how much effort Zhan Zhou had put into this love.

But now, they who have just entered the marriage hall have to face such a cruel reality.

"Let's go find Ji Huan and Zhan Zhou tomorrow, tell them the news, and then think of a solution together." Gu Ning looked at Shui Mutian and said.

The next morning, Gu Ning and Shui Mutian drove to Gonghu Village to find Zhan Zhou.

At this time, he and Ji Huan were having breakfast. He found it very strange to see Gu Ning and Shui Mutian coming to see him so early.

"Young Boss, Mr. Mu, have you had breakfast? What's the matter with you coming to see me so early in the morning?"

Ji Huan walked up to Gu Ning and asked, "Young Boss, is there anything wrong with the company?"

Gu Ning waved his hand, "Neither, our coming here today has nothing to do with the company."

"It has something to do with Zhan Zhou."

Zhan Zhou’s heart was pounding. Could it be that his secret was exposed?

He has been feeling uneasy these past two days, his right eyelid has been twitching constantly, and he always feels that something is going to happen.

What Zhan Zhou feared most was that his practice of hiring others to rape women and cut the tendons of their hands and feet would be discovered.

However, he did not regret it. Jiaojiao's revenge must be avenged and he could not let those scums off easily.

Zhan Zhou suppressed his nervousness and said, "Young Boss, Mr. Mu, what do you want to see me about?"

Gu Ning took a deep breath and tried to make his tone sound calm, "Zhan Zhou, we are here today to tell you some news about you."

Zhan Zhou's face froze. He had a feeling that this news might be related to the matter of him hiring others for revenge.

He tried to stay calm, but his hands began to tremble uncontrollably.

"It's about you hiring others for revenge." Shui Mutian said directly, his voice full of seriousness.

Zhan Zhou's face turned pale instantly. He looked at Ji Huan, only to see that Ji Huan was also shocked.

Was the matter discovered? Was the thing they feared the most finally happening?

"Mr. Mu, this..." Zhan Zhou wanted to explain, but swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.

"Zhan Zhou, you know that this behavior is illegal and has serious consequences." Gu Ning continued, "We hope that you can cooperate with the investigation and strive for leniency."

Zhan Zhou was silent for a moment, then nodded, "I know, I will cooperate." He raised his head and looked at Gu Ning and Shui Mutian, "I just hope that it won't affect Ji Huan."

"Don't worry, it has nothing to do with Ji Huan!" Shui Mutian said.

Ji Huan held Zhan Zhou's hand and said, "Ah Zhou, it's okay. This kind of thing will come out sooner or later. Let's just regard it as the early death and the early reincarnation."

"No matter how many years you are sentenced to, I will wait for you. In my heart, you are a hero!"

Zhan Zhou burst into tears, "Ji Huan, I'm sorry!"

Ji Huan shook his head, "You did nothing wrong, don't say sorry."

Zhan Zhou held Ji Huan's hand tightly, his eyes full of guilt and gratitude.

Gu Ning and Shui Mutian looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

They knew that this incident was a heavy blow to both Zhan Zhou and Ji Huan.

But they also understand that the law is fair and no one can escape responsibility.

In the following days, Zhan Zhou began to cooperate with the police investigation, while Gu Ning and Shui Mutian also tried their best to get the best result for him.

The news that Zhan Zhou was being investigated by the police spread to Shanghe Village. Ji Yinchuan and Zhu Ling were stunned. Their beloved daughter had only been married for a few days when their son-in-law was taken away by the police.

Ji Huan and Zhan Zhou instantly became the talk of Shanghe Village.

Ji Yinchuan immediately called his daughter to ask what was going on.

Ji Huan has been running to the police station these days and has no time to tell his parents about this.

When Ji Huan told his parents what happened, Ji Yinchuan and Zhu Ling fell silent. They could not blame their son-in-law for such a thing. If they put themselves in their shoes, they would see that their son-in-law did what an older brother should do.

Why should those people have it easy? They were the ones who came to their house to make trouble, pointing at Ji Huan's nose and cursing, asking, "Why didn't my son rape other women, but raped you?"

It was you who seduced them, and that's why my son and his men targeted you and raped you.

A year ago, their ugly faces were still vivid in everyone’s mind. When those scums were retaliated against in the same way, Ji Yinchuan and Zhu Ling were still applauding the people who did it.

It was not until today that we learned that the hero was their son-in-law.

Don’t blame the son-in-law!

Why do I feel a little proud in my heart?

Zhu Ling had a question in her heart, but she didn't dare to ask her daughter. After experiencing such a thing, it only took a year for her to accept another man.

Isn't her mental quality too good? She has heard about the situations of the other three girls. None of them is willing to get married. The girl from Fengtou Village was forced by her parents and would rather jump into the river than get married.

Now after hearing what Zhan Zhou did, Zhu Ling finally understood her daughter's choice.

That's it!

Ji Yinchuan told Ji Huan on the phone that they support Zhan Zhou, he is great and they are proud of him.

Ji Huan relayed his parents' words to Zhan Zhou.

Zhan Zhou felt a bittersweet feeling in his heart. It felt so good to be recognized by his family.

There was no bad words as I had imagined, only understanding and support from the Yue family. It was great.

With Ji Huan's encouragement, Zhan Zhou faced his problems positively.

Together they found a lawyer, learned about Zhan Zhou's situation in detail, and developed a corresponding defense strategy.

In the following days, Zhan Zhou actively cooperated with the lawyers and worked hard to defend himself.

Ji Huan also always firmly supports Zhan Zhou, and she believes that Zhan Zhou will be able to overcome this difficulty.

After some efforts, Zhan Zhou's case finally came to trial.

In court, Zhan Zhou behaved very calmly and rationally. He admitted his mistakes and reflected deeply on his behavior.

In the end, Zhan Zhou received a relatively light sentence of one year in prison.

He needs to serve one year in prison, and after he comes out, he and Ji Huan can start their life again without having to worry about when the police will suddenly come to arrest him.

The moment they walked out of the court, Zhan Zhou hugged Ji Huan tightly, his eyes full of gratitude and excitement.

Ji Huan hugged him back, "A Zhou, serve your sentence well in there, I'll be waiting for you outside!"

"Okay! Ji Huan, thank you!"

"You're welcome! My hero!"

……

In the evening, Gu Ning came over to Shui Mutian, sat on the sofa, ate grapes, and drank juice. "Shui Mutian, would you like to drink some juice? It's sour and sweet and delicious."

Shui Mutian shook his head, "I prefer drinking tea."

Gu Ning, "Zhan Zhou's matter has finally been settled. He is also a pitiful man."

"I admire him. He is a man of blood."

Shui Mutian glanced at Gu Ning and said, "You are more courageous than him. In your previous life, you sent all your enemies to apologize to your family."

Gu Ning threw a grape into his mouth, "Thank you for the compliment! I didn't want to live at that time, I had no scruples."

"My situation is different from his. Zhuang Ge, Xi Gou, and Feng Deshun, the three people who raped Zhan Jiaojiao, have all been punished by law and sent to work on sewing machines."

"Feng Deshun and Xigou's family went to Zhan Jiaojiao's house and insulted her, causing her to commit suicide. Zhan Zhou then retaliated against their family in the same way."

"Brother Zhuang, Feng Deshun, Xi Gou and the others were not after human lives from the beginning. My fake grandparents, uncle and aunt had a clear goal, which was to take the lives of our entire family."

"I was young at the time and didn't know the truth. By the time I wanted to take revenge, twenty years had passed and all the evidence had been destroyed."

"I wanted to bring them to justice through legal means, but there is no way to achieve that. The only option left is to take revenge by dying together."

Shui Mutian looked at Gu Ning and said, "It's a pity that we met late in our previous life, so I can't help you solve your problems."

Gu Ning looked at Shui Mutian with a half-smile, "Even if we know each other, why would you help me? With my cowardly appearance in my previous life, how could I possibly be in the eyes of a man of destiny like you?"

"Don't mention you. I don't like myself back then. But people grow up step by step. As they experience more things, their thoughts gradually mature."

"Most of them are ordinary people. Geniuses like you are a minority in China."

"Later, we did become familiar with each other, but I couldn't see you, and you couldn't see me."

Shui Mutian looked at Gu Ning distressedly, "I'm sorry for making you suffer."

Gu Ning waved his hands, "That was all in my previous life. I just feel a little emotional. You don't have to say sorry to me."

"In our last life, we didn't really know each other."

"I've been reborn. I've taken revenge on those who owed me in my previous life. I've also repaid those who owed me favors... but I haven't repaid them all yet."

"There's no rush, there's still time."

"I am very satisfied with my life now. All the unhappiness in the past has disappeared."

Shui Mutian smiled and said, "You are right to think so. You suffered so much in your last life, so you should enjoy life in this life."

"I'll be with you in everything!"

Gu Ning looked at Shui Mutian and said, "I find that you are becoming more and more eloquent now."

"You were very strict in your last life, but you've changed a lot in this life."

"So I was a bachelor in my previous life, and I'm not sweet-talking in this life. I'm afraid I'll be a bachelor again in this life." Shui Mutian looked at Gu Ning with tenderness in his eyes.

Gu Ning turned his face away and coughed lightly, "I'm not used to you talking like this!"

Shui Mutian smiled and said, "Then I'll talk more in the future, and you'll get used to it."

"We still have a lot of time. We can talk slowly over a lifetime."

Gu Ning didn't want to continue this topic, so he changed the subject, "Shui Mutian, how is the investigation into the smuggling case going? Has the protector been arrested?"

"The customs in Province C has caught a lot of people, from top to bottom."

"Is there anyone from our D Province participating?"

"Have!"

“Are there many people participating in Yichang County?”

"There are eight, and Lin Feng'er's father is one of them."

"Are we both safe now? Will we become targets when we go out?"

Shui Mutian took a sip of tea and said, "I won't be a target anymore. I'm safe."

Gu Ning patted his chest and said, "That's good. In the two years since I was reborn, I have either been hunted by someone or on the way to be hunted."

"Day after day, I didn't know who I was blocking. I am innocent."

Shui Mutian nodded perfunctorily, "You are the most innocent, they are the ones who are looking for trouble with you for no reason."

Seeing Shui Mutian's attitude, Gu Ning said unhappily, "I am really innocent. I was forced to fight back."

"I know, they were the ones who started it." Shui Mutian put down his teacup, a sharp look flashing in his eyes, "But, Gu Ning, we can't let our guard down just because we are innocent."

"In this world, there are no eternal enemies or eternal friends, only eternal interests. Those whose interests we touch will not give up."

"You mean those external forces?" Gu Ning frowned.

"We have to be more careful and not give them any opportunity." Shui Mutian looked at Gu Ning with seriousness in his eyes.

"I understand! They are like stinky rats in the gutter, and they can never be cleaned out," said Gu Ning.

"Yes, they are like enemies in the dark, and they may attack at any time." Shui Mutian stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the bustling streets outside. "We can't take it lightly, we must always be vigilant."

Gu Ning, "Shui Mutian, am I exposed?"

Shui Mutian said, "No, how could we possibly let you be exposed."

"It's just that our country has developed too fast in the past two years, which has caused some countries to suspect that we have cheated."

"Our country has accelerated the overall industrialization in the past two years."

"Humanity has 39 major categories, 151 medium categories, and 525 minor categories of industry. China is the only country that has all the categories complete. The Eagle Sauce is the second most complete, but only has half."

"The shield machine is an indispensable tool for construction. Our country needs to use it for infrastructure construction, mountain construction, road construction, water conservancy, subways, etc."

"We used to buy from Hans Cat and Foot Basin Chicken. Not only were the prices ridiculously high, but they also broke down frequently. They sent technicians to repair them, and their hourly wages were higher than our workers' annual wages."
