Ma Aihua looked at the interrogator with resentment. Seeing him nod and looking at Jiang Linwan's leisurely expression, her disgust grew stronger.

"Don't give her any food. Let's see just how stubborn she really is."

"But..." The interrogator hesitated, but was interrupted by Ma Aihua before he could finish speaking: "But what? As logistics personnel, the Army Corps is on the front line protecting the country and its people, so naturally we should help him take care of things at home."

Look at the mark on Jiang Linwan's neck. It's obviously from sexual intercourse. Lu Tuan can't do this. She's cheating on Lu Tuan.

"Are you really going to just stand by and watch the Lu regiment be kept in the dark? Besides, your political commissar is backing you up; what are you afraid of?"

Jiang Linwan wasn't afraid of going hungry; there was food in her spatial storage, and she could eat carefully without fear of being discovered.

But I've been living here all this time, and in this sweltering heat I can't wash or take a bath, so I'm going to stink all over.

And as for Grandpa, I wonder how Guard Zhang is doing.

Seeing Ma Aihua's arrogant demeanor, Jiang Linwan said in a calm voice, "Comrade Ma Aihua, military regulations prohibit the mistreatment of guards. You have already made a mistake by detaining me without evidence."

If you continue like this, you'll be in serious trouble when my husband comes back.

Ma Aihua's expression changed several times, but remembering her niece's words, she glared fiercely at Jiang Linwan and turned to leave.

Jiang Linwan was detained for two or three days in a row. Dean Chen felt more and more that something was wrong. However, when he went to the gate of the family compound, he was stopped. On the third day, Dean Chen found out that Liu Guiying often went to the beach to go clamming. He then staked out the beach for two more days.

They finally found Liu Guiying.

When Liu Guiying heard that Jiang Linwan hadn't gone to work for several days, her heart skipped a beat, and she immediately became anxious: "How could she not have gone to work? I've been looking for her every day during the day, but she's never there."

"If you didn't go to work, what did you go to do?"

Dean Chen then recounted what had happened that day, and Liu Guiying's brow twitched incessantly upon hearing this.

She rushed back to the family compound in a panic, and went straight to her husband at noon to tell him what had happened. Her husband's expression changed drastically.

Without any hesitation, he went straight to Commander Yang.

Mayor Yang was furious when he heard the news, and only then did Political Commissar Li realize that his wife had quietly accomplished such a big thing in the past few days.

He stormed home and confronted Ma Aihua, demanding, "What have you been doing behind my back these past few days?"

Did you lock Jiang Linwan up without permission?

Ma Aihua didn't expect the matter to be discovered so quickly. That little bitch Jiang Linwan is really good at holding on. She hasn't eaten much for five days and still hasn't signed the indictment.

Seeing her husband get angry, she felt flustered, but she still forced herself to remain calm and put on a show that she was doing what was best for Lu Xi: "I'm doing this for Lu Xi's sake. He just left the mission and that woman cheated on him."

All I wanted was for her to confess, but that woman was so stubborn.

"Did you torture her?" Commissar Li asked through gritted teeth, barely suppressing his anger.

As he spoke, he grabbed Ma Aihua and stormed off toward the detention center.

Ma Aihua immediately shook her head: "No!"

Political Commissar Li immediately breathed a sigh of relief and quickened his pace toward the detention center.

When he arrived, quite a few people had already gone to the detention center, including Commander Yang, his wife, and the political commissar and his wife.

Liu Guiying went in with her and saw Jiang Linwan with messy hair, dirty clothes and a pale face. Her eyes reddened with heartache: "Linwan, oh my, you people are going too far."

Even a leader can't just lock someone up without saying a word." Her voice was particularly loud; she was genuinely standing up for Jiang Linwan.

If Dean Chen hadn't found her, and she hadn't made a scene with Commander Yang, Lin Wan might have been locked up again, and a few more days in jail would have cost her her life.

Liu Guiying helped the person out of the house carefully, and tears streamed down her face.

Jiang Linwan looked weak, but she was actually secretly eating. However, afraid of being discovered, she only ate a little each day, just enough to keep herself from starving.

"Lin Wan, oh!" Aunt Yang's eyes were also red at this moment, and she helped Liu Guiying to help the person out.

Xiao Lu used to protect Lin Wan so much; if he saw her like this now, he would be heartbroken.

As she passed by Political Commissar Li and his group, she spoke loudly and angrily: "Regiment Commander Lu is risking his life on missions outside, and you people are hiding in the logistics."

Not only did they fail to take care of the families of soldiers who risked their lives for the country, they also dared to detain people indiscriminately.

How can you do this to them? Aren't you afraid of breaking the hearts of soldiers?

Commander Yang looked at Political Commissar Li, his anger also burning. Although he restrained himself from lashing out, his words were full of fury, like thunder: "Just because of a few words from the rumor-mongers."

"You actually dared to detain military family members so rashly, that's quite something. I had no idea Political Commissar Li's power had grown so great."

Upon hearing Commander Yang's words, Political Commissar Li broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly explained, "I knew absolutely nothing about this..."

"You don't know? You're the regimental political commissar, in charge of everyone's ideological and political work. Your family member has done something so serious, and you say you didn't know?"

Political Commissar Li wanted to explain, but he couldn't utter a single word. Ma Aihua, who had been arrogant before, also shrank back and dared not say a word.

Commander Yang looked at Political Commissar Li, his tone calm, but this calmness was more terrifying than anger: "Political Commissar Li, you are a veteran leader, and you know the crime this matter constitutes."

The detention center will cooperate with the local public security bureau to investigate the case and handle it accordingly.

You are the political commissar of the regiment. Your wife has been abusing your position to commit wrongdoing in the family compound. You have failed in your duty to discipline her.

"I will issue a reprimand tomorrow. As for how the organization will handle it, we'll see what the investigation results are." Commander Yang said, then turned and left.

Ma Aihua frantically grabbed her husband, asking fearfully, "How will Bingwen handle this? Will I be punished?"

Political Commissar Li's eyes turned sinister as he looked at her: "What do you think? Detaining someone without authorization is a crime, let alone a military family member."

Ma Aihua's mind went blank for a moment, her body went limp and she swayed as she hurriedly tried to pull Political Commissar Li up.

Commissar Li pushed her away with disgust, suddenly feeling a pang of regret. He shouldn't have listened to his parents' arrangements and married her.

This incident is extremely serious. Given Lu Qiyue's temperament, he will definitely cause a huge scene when he returns. He will likely be demoted, or even dismissed if things get worse.

"Bingwen, you are the political commissar, you have the right to detain her, don't you? Explain to the division commander that I did not wrong Jiang Linwan. I saw the marks of a man's kiss on her neck the day she was detained."

"Lu Tuan can't do it either. What else could she be but looking for some random man? Besides, that matchmaker old lady already said..." Ma Aihua explained in a panic, her lips trembling with anxiety.

Seeing her fearful expression, Political Commissar Li knew it was too late. He said calmly, "Ma Aihua, let's get a divorce."

"Divorce! Li Bingwen, you're not a man! I've worked so hard to give birth to your children, and now you want to divorce me as soon as something happens? You bastard, I will never agree to this!" Ma Aihua cried and shouted, staring at him hysterically.

What did she do wrong? What right did those people have to detain her?

It's obvious that Jiang Linwan cheated on her; she's helping them get rid of this parasite.

Political Commissar Li turned and strode away, regardless of whether she agreed or not.
