Chapter 643 - 626: Not Forgiveness
Once Nie Zhan applied pressure, Guo Qinqin was immediately fired, and the relevant personnel were punished, while Lu Hongjun’s record of punishment was also removed.
Lu Jiaxin reluctantly accepted this outcome, but Lu Hongjun was quite happy.
After learning that his matter was recorded, Lu Hongjun blamed himself immensely, feeling that he had impacted the future of Gou Dan and Gou Sheng, the siblings. He even thought, if he had known earlier that old accounts would be brought up, he wouldn’t have adopted them, so as not to implicate the children in the future, preventing them from joining the military or government units.
He joyfully said, "When Shanzi comes, I’ll tell him the good news."
Lu Jiaxin, however, stopped him: "Gou Dan is still young, it will take seven or eight years for him to join the army or apply to college, there’s no need to say anything now, wait until he’s in high school and tell then."
Lu Hongjun didn’t understand why he couldn’t say.
Lu Jiaxin glanced at him and said, "You broke the law but didn’t receive any substantive punishment; what do you think they’ll think?"
Lu Hongjun truly hadn’t considered this issue.
Lu Jiaxin had lost faith in the Lu family members: "At that time, they might lose their reverence for the law, thinking I have great influence to smooth out incidents; that could harm them."
"Or they might think I have such influence that they could seek me to smooth things out if someone gets into trouble. I’m making it clear now; I won’t handle anything, no matter who it is."
She has her own matters to attend to and isn’t willing to deal with these trifling things. By speaking frankly upfront, no one would dare bother her later.
Lu Hongjun didn’t want to continue this topic, he said, "Jiaxin, I can now get out of bed and walk a few steps, and after another month, I can recover like a normal person."
