My Sweet Physician Wife Calls The Shots

When Elder Wu heard that his daughter-in-law had gone to Emperor District, he heaved a sigh of relief and nodded. "Good, good. That's good."

Upon saying that, he looked at Chi Yang and Nangong Nuannuan and continued. "Nuannuan, I'm sorry."

Nangong Nuannuan smiled. "Elder Wu, you're too polite."

"Is this a friend of yours?" Elder Wu was stunned when he saw Sze Lingyun.

Nuannuan nodded. "Yes, this is my future senior sister. Her name is Sze Lingyun."

"Hello, Elder Wu!" Sze Lingyun immediately greeted the venerated old man.

Elder Wu nodded and said, "I've really been neglecting you. Nuannuan, why don't you bring Miss Sze back to your place to let her rest first? You saved my Wu family, so you're just as much the master of this family as I am. You don't have to be so polite."

Nangong Nuannuan responded, "Elder Wu, don't worry about us. You should deal with the people from the police station first."

"Oh, alright! You guys go ahead first."

"Alright."

As Nangong Nuannuan looked around and saw the other members of the Wu family remaining silent, she thought about Elder Wu's words.

Nangong Nuannuan understood his character. He was an honest old man. It was obvious that the Wu family had brought up Wu Pingting and Wu Zongyang well.

Elder Wu had used his life to protect Wu Jingzhong. Was he really such a terrible person who would use his relatives for personal gain?

"What exactly happened to Jingzhong this time?" Elder Wu asked.

"They said that Wangcheng Area wanted to build a road that was four miles long. According to the regulations, the construction of a road more than 200 yards long must be agreed upon by the public. However, Big Bro divided the road into 31 sections which were all shorter than 200 yards, so he did not require public approval. Without the need for approval, he was able to directly contract the job to someone. His actions could have a dramatically bad impact on society."

Elder Wu sneered when he heard that.

"This is terrible. Our Wu family is the richest family in Sea District! How much would a 4-mile road even cost? Only 300 million! How much profit can he make from this? How much can he get out of the people? Our Wu group gives him 2 billion yuan every year. He's a man unwilling to get married, have children, and carry on the family bloodline. Why can't he just survive on the 2 billion yuan every year? Why does he have to be so greedy, trying to get even more money for himself?"

"Yes, father. I have asked Tang Ya to pass on what you said to the 12th Officer of the executive hall, who said that he will investigate this case. Regardless of whether Big Bro has made a mistake, the officer will provide the Wu family with a fair explanation. Besides, we need evidence to show that Big Bro accepted Hui Lu's proposal. They'll need evidence to pin it on someone without an heir and without the need for money. Big Bro has never done such a thing before, so they have no evidence. The most they can do is put him under house arrest for a few days. They can't hold him indefinitely without cause."

"Okay." Elder Wu nodded. With the help of Wu Jingcheng and Wu Jingmin, he went to sit on a stool on the lawn outside the house.

When Sze Lingyun heard '12th Officer of the executive hall', her heart skipped a beat.

This was because the 12th Officer of the executive hall was Li Heyi, the father of her boyfriend, Li Jingyan.

The Wu family and Jingyan's father were friends?

Just as Sze Lingyun was sinking deep into thought, Nangong Nuannuan whispered into her ear, "There's a secret compartment in the third window on the right of the second floor. There's a box inside it. Please retrieve it for me."
