What's the point of Chapter 569?
What's the point of Chapter 569?
"Hey, where did that woman go?"
Zhang Haiyang scratched his head, looking confused.
"It seems the police haven't issued any arrest warrants for Luo Yun and Chen Long. They're acting like nothing happened. That's strange."
“You’re a police officer, why are you asking me?” Zhong Yuemin rolled his eyes.
"Brother, I'm just a lowly deputy captain of the criminal investigation team."
Zhang Haiyang spread his hands.
“A case of this magnitude… You know who Li Yuanchao’s father is, do you think I could possibly have any contact with him?”
He stared at Zhong Yuemin, his eyes filled with a hint of inquiry:
"You must know something, right? I know perfectly well that you and that woman Luo Yun have been flirting quite a bit before..."
"Screw you!"
Zhong Yuemin interrupted him impatiently.
"You can't say things like that carelessly. If Xiaobai hears it, I'll never be able to clear my name, no matter what."
He paused, then lowered his voice and said:
"Don't you understand? Zhengrong just had a major corrupt official, Li Yuanchao, and the people outside are already complaining. The matter has just calmed down a bit, and now another female corrupt official has emerged. It might cause public outrage and create even bigger trouble."
"I reckon that even if they want to arrest Luo Yun and Chen Long, it has to be done in private, not in public."
Zhang Haiyang thought for a moment and slowly nodded: "That makes sense."
"Alright, let's not worry about this anymore."
Zhong Yuemin waved his hand.
"You, Captain Zhang, have cracked a major drug case. Just wait for your promotion and riches."
"Trying to get rich by becoming a policeman?" Zhang Haiyang laughed. "You're dreaming. Come on..."
He raised his glass: "One more, please!"

His wife Xiaobai's belly was getting bigger and bigger, so she took a break from her work at the hospital and stayed home to rest and prepare for the baby. She had been staying at her parents' house these days, and with her mother taking care of her, Zhong Yuemin felt more at ease.
He also went to his mother-in-law's house every day to live with his wife, staying by her side every step of the way.
It was late at night, and the warm yellow light in the bedroom created a cozy atmosphere.
Zhou Xiaobai sat on the edge of the bed, looking down at her husband. He had moved a small stool and was sitting in front of her, carefully washing her feet with gentle and meticulous movements. Warm water splashed over her feet, and his fingers gently massaged every inch of her skin.
She couldn't resist reaching out and patting his head, a slight smile playing on her lips.
"How long has it been since you washed my feet? You have a conscience after all."
Zhong Yuemin didn't rush to reply. He focused on rinsing her feet clean with the last rinse of water, gently drying them with a towel, and then carefully placing them on his thighs, beginning to massage them gently.
After finishing all that, he finally looked up, his face full of "grievance":
“Honey, I swear to God, when have I ever volunteered? It’s just that you thought it was too much trouble and said you could do it yourself. It’s not that I didn’t want to wash, there’s a fundamental difference. If you like, I can wash you seven or eight times a day.”
Zhou Xiaobai rolled her eyes at him: "Wouldn't that make you skinny? I don't have that kind of hobby."
Then he said:
"By the way, Yuemin, where did Luo Yun and her assistant, Chen Long, go? Did they flee to America like Li Yuanchao?"
"I don't know exactly where, but it's definitely not in the United States!"
This woman is indeed quite capable. Not only did she expose Li Yuanchao's embezzlement, but she also had a backup plan. She even managed to deceive him. He really didn't know where the two of them were.
Zhou Xiaobai sighed, "You know, Luo Yun is really something. She embezzled so much money, but what was the point in the end? What was she after? This is what happened to her."
