Chapter 48 What Happened?

Inside the car.

Su Tianyu looked at Yu Zhen in surprise, "What's wrong, Auntie?"

"Wen Zhanbo... has been arrested, by the Special Intelligence Department," Yu Zhen replied directly. "It's not appropriate for us to go over now. Well, don't take us to the city. Find a hotel near the airport. I need to make a few calls later."

Before Su Tianyu could react, his phone rang. He looked down and saw it was Lao Li calling.

A few minutes later, the car turned around, and Su Tianyu drove Yu Zhen and the others to a nearby airport hotel.

...

Inside the Hongri Hotel.

Second Aunt Wen Xiaoqing stood in the lounge with her hands on her hips, her face very ugly as she questioned Yu Mingyuan, "Why didn't you notify us before they took him away? What were you thinking?!"

Beside her, the Wen family members were a little panicked. Some were constantly making calls, while others were questioning Yu Mingyuan in an agitated tone.

The room was noisy and the atmosphere was oppressive, while the hall outside was full of guests, filled with laughter and joy.

Yu Mingyuan calmed himself slightly, looked up at his second aunt, and replied, "It's not that I didn't notify you, it's just that... Uncle Wen suddenly called me over and told me about it in the elevator. By the time I understood... they had already arrived in the lobby, and Kang Dinghuang and the others were blocking the door."

Second Aunt was very angry, but she didn't know who to vent her anger on. After a long silence, she pointed at Yu Mingyuan and asked, "Can Lao Li help?"

This question was crucial because The Dragon City was, after all, the territory of Li Mingsheng's team. Second Aunt's meaning was also very clear: our Wen family helped you before, so shouldn't you also lend a hand at this time?

Yu Mingyuan paused for a moment and replied, "Before Uncle Wen left, he made a phone call to the leader... they communicated, but in the end, Uncle Wen still walked out."

This answer was relatively mild, but everyone present understood what Yu Mingyuan meant.

"So... Li Mingsheng can't help much?!" Wen Xiaorou's cousin frowned and asked.

Yu Mingyuan paused slightly, "This... this matter is too sudden."

"Alas, Lao Wen is confused! In the political arena, there are no absolute friends!" Wen Xiaoqing said somewhat resentfully, then adjusted her mindset with her hands on her hips: "The banquet is canceled. I'll go and say hello to everyone. You all go home."

"Second Aunt, I... my dad...!" Wen Xiaorou was now completely distraught, grabbing her aunt's arm anxiously.

"The situation is still uncertain, but he is the head of a brigade. Even if he is isolated for investigation, the due process must still be followed," Wen Xiaoqing said softly. "I will discuss it with your uncle. Don't worry, send the guests off with me properly."

Yu Mingyuan interjected at the right time, "Second Aunt, my aunt is also here. She asked me to go see her. Maybe the First District can help a little."

Second Aunt paused, "Send your guests off, then go talk to your aunt."

"Okay."

Thus, after a group of people finished discussing in the lounge, they followed Second Aunt out to see off the guests.

...

Around 9:40 PM.

Su Tianyu booked two rooms at the Jinhang Hotel near the airport and settled Yu Zhen and the others.

Inside the room, Yu Zhen was sitting on the sofa, constantly sending text messages on her phone.

In the living room, An Qiqi and Wa Wa were surrounding Su Tianyu, constantly asking questions.

"What's going on? Why was Uncle Wen suddenly arrested?"

"Xiao Yu, will something happen to my brother too?"

"...!" Both were very worried about the Wen family and the situation of Yu Mingyuan and the others, their pretty faces full of anxiety.

Su Tianyu was going crazy, his phone ringing non-stop, "Wait a minute, I haven't gotten accurate information yet. I'll make a few calls."

"My brother is still at the hotel, will something happen to him too?" Wa Wa asked anxiously.

Su Tianyu waved his hand, "He knows what he's doing, he'll be fine, don't worry."

An Qiqi looked at the busy Gou Liuzi and immediately pulled Wa Wa, "We don't have much information. Let's not disturb them now. Let's sit for a while and wait for news."

Su Tianyu walked to the door with his phone and said in a low voice, "Mingyuan is at the hotel seeing off the guests. The leader called me just now, but I can't leave now. I have to wait for Mingyuan to come back... Okay, okay, Brother Jin, I understand, don't worry...!"

Su Tianyu talked to Jin Maohui on the phone for about five minutes before hanging up, preparing to call the association again.

"Xiao Yu!" Just then, Yu Zhen called out.

"What's wrong, Auntie?" Su Tianyu went over to her.

Yu Zhen sat on the sofa and asked calmly, "Wen Zhanbo is in trouble, you must have received a lot of calls too, right?"

"Yes, from the city, from the association, they're all asking me about the situation..." Su Tianyu replied.

"If you're busy, go ahead," Yu Zhen replied considerately. "You don't have to worry about us here, we'll be fine."

"I'm just afraid...!"

"I'm not a cadre of The Dragon City, nor do I have any violations of discipline, so I'm not afraid of anyone," Yu Zhen said softly. "Your affairs are more important, go and get busy."

Su Tianyu glanced at his watch, "Alright, Auntie, Mingyuan is coming over soon anyway, so I'll leave first. We'll communicate by phone if anything happens."

"Okay, go quickly," Yu Zhen said, getting up to see him off.

"No need to see me off, Auntie!" Su Tianyu waved his hand and turned to leave.

Seeing him leave alone, An Qiqi immediately chased after him, and Yu Zhen didn't stop her.

The young couple left the room together, and An Qiqi immediately grabbed Su Tianyu's hand and said, "Be careful... call me immediately if anything happens."

Su Tianyu reached out and scratched An Qiqi's nose, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back," An Qiqi slowly let go of his arm.

Su Tianyu smiled and walked quickly into the elevator.

After watching Su Tianyu leave, An Qiqi turned and walked back to the room.

"Qiqi, book return tickets, for tonight, we have to go back," Yu Zhen said, standing by the window.

An Qiqi was stunned, "Wh...what do you mean? We're not going to the Wen family's side?!"

"That's right, we're not going, let's avoid meeting," Yu Zhen replied faintly.

"If that's the case, then will the Wen family...?"

"Book the tickets!" Yu Zhen interrupted, repeating the sentence.

An Qiqi looked at her mother's expression and didn't ask any more questions, reluctantly taking out her phone and searching for flight information.

Yu Zhen stood by the window, her hands on the windowsill, her eyebrows furrowed.

"Is it that serious?" Yu's mother walked up and asked.

"Lao An is in trouble," Yu Zhen replied with a very serious expression.

...

On the ship back to The Dragon City, Gu Baishun sat in the cabin, staring with red eyes at a middle-aged man, "Uncle Niu, I can't wait any longer... I have to find out who did this as soon as possible."
