Chapter 1685: Chapter 847: Relationships (Part 2)

"How do you know that?"

Chen Lin was full of curiosity.

"I’m your mom, how could I not know? If I didn’t know, all those years out in society would’ve been for nothing."

"Alright then!"

Chen Lin had no choice but to call the review personnel into the ward.

The reviewers were quite surprised to see Chen Feifei in such a stable condition, which indicated that Chen Lin had done a good job of reasoning with her. They sat down with a sense of relief, ready to begin their inquiry.

"Ms. Chen, are you really willing to accept our investigation?"

"Yes, I am."

The review staff quickly opened their notebooks.

"Let me interrupt for a moment. My mother has just recovered, and if we spot any issues, I have the right to stop the investigation, okay?"

"Rest assured, we know what to do and we’ll handle it with care."

At this moment, however, her mother appeared very calm. Perhaps it was because she had already foreseen her own fate, there was no need for extra worry.

"Actually, we all know your company’s operations are very abnormal, and there has always been foreign capital injection, so we really want to know how exactly you operate."

The first question raised by the review team was met with calmness by Chen Feifei.

"Actually, when I first returned to the country with money, I just wanted to start a legitimate business, but I found that they seemed very interested in our company and kept investing. But before that, I must clarify, I joined their organization when I was studying abroad."

"Joined?"

So, it turned out that while studying abroad, her mother met Black Cat in a bar, and the two quickly fell in love.

Before long, they had a child, who is now Chen Lin. Later, due to various reasons, she chose to return to the country.

After returning to the country, she learned about her pregnancy, and her family could not accept it, so they directly drove her out of the house.

Subsequently, in order to survive, she had to accept Black Cat’s assistance, who ostensibly wanted to help her start a company.

"Actually, it was me who recruited that assistant. At the time, I thought the girl was particularly clever, so I hired her. Later, they also learned that I had a child and did everything they could to solve various problems for me, and they handled most of the company’s business."

Chen Feifei kept admitting to her issues, but in fact, since having Chen Lin, she had never done anything illegal.

"So now I feel particularly uncomfortable. I never expected that my assistant was actually Black Cat’s daughter."

Chen Feifei felt full of remorse.

"I regret it greatly. If I hadn’t gone abroad, if I hadn’t visited that bar, I wouldn’t have met Black Cat, and all these issues wouldn’t have occurred. It was just that my vanity was too strong at the time, and I couldn’t resist the temptation of money, so I was fooled."

However, Chen Feifei was still very concerned about that assistant and had treated her like a sister all these years.

"From my perspective, it’s indeed the case, but I had no idea how much my assistant was doing behind my back. Especially the biological laboratory, I was in charge of recruiting personnel, and out of trust in her, I didn’t worry too much. Who would have thought that the assistant was actually Black Cat’s person."

If what happened before had made this woman feel heart-wrenched, now she felt more remorse; she knew full well there was no escaping her culpability regardless.

"Therefore, I want to help my daughter by confessing. I’ve long realized that such a company couldn’t last long. If one day Black Cat really came to cause trouble, I would be completely finished. That’s why I’ve always hoped to provide my daughter with a good education."

Fortunately, Chen Lin was very smart. Through her own perseverance, she became a beauty top student and successfully got into a prestigious university.

As she approached graduation, Chen Lin chose to join the military, which was actually what her mother had expected.

"I really hope my daughter can receive good education in the military, maybe even get into a military academy, and receive further comprehensive training from you, that would be the best outcome."

"You’re saying that your daughter wasn’t involved in these matters at all, right?"

"My daughter doesn’t even know what kind of person I am, how could she have been involved? These are things I’ve kept in my heart, there’s no way I’d let my daughter find out. I just want to provide her with a good environment to grow, I just didn’t expect things to unfold so quickly."

"Alright!"

After listening, the investigators nodded.

"We will certainly consider everything you’ve said carefully. But you know, we still need to follow procedure. We certainly believe your daughter is innocent, and we hope you will patiently await our judgment. We also believe the organization will give your daughter a fair answer."

"Thank you!"

At this time, the staff took Chen Lin out of the ward.

"We have pretty much figured out the situation, the main point being that your mother might face heavier punishment, you should be mentally prepared for that."

"I understand this, I also didn’t expect my background to be this way. No matter what, all the things I’ve bought before will be handed over to the organization."

"That’s not necessary, at least you’ve spent the money in worthwhile ways, not harmful ones. The organization has decided you can continue using that car, and the funds your mother gave you before will remain untouched for you to use at will."

The staff and leadership very much hoped to see Chen Lin thrive.

"Thank you all so much, I really didn’t expect things to happen like this and for it to trouble everyone."

"It’s alright. Once this is over, you should all discuss what path to take going forward. If your daughter passes review, we will definitely focus on her development. But you need to undergo rehabilitation, I hope you will think clearly."

"Yes!"

And with that, all the staff left the ward, leaving only the mother and daughter inside.

"Don’t stay here any longer! Isn’t our nation about to host the Youth World Sports? You should hurry back. There are excellent doctors and nurses here, there won’t be any danger."

Moreover, having violated the law, there were people standing guard outside.

"But..."

Actually, Chen Lin was reluctant to leave.

"You’re my good daughter, go on now! The country needs you, there can only be a home if there’s a nation!"

At this, Chen Lin could only leave the scene in tears. However, the captain looked at her.

"Chen Lin, go and do what you need to do, don’t worry too much. National security is important too, we will do everything we can for treatment, and we will select a very professional caregiver, we’ve already got a suitable candidate in mind, there absolutely won’t be any problems."

"Thank you!"

And so, Chen Lin returned to the military. From that point on, however, she found it impossible to lift her head in front of everyone.

Lin Beichen noticed the issue.

Though each captain led their teams patrolling their respective task locations, the once high-spirited Chen Lin had become silent and withdrawn.

"Well, this girl feels like she’s made a mistake, maybe she thinks she hasn’t contributed to the country, but dragged it down instead. I’ll go and have a chat with her."

Chen Lin appeared in the lounge.

"Sit down, today there are no soldiers and officers, we’re just old friends, I’m a few years older than you, so think of me as your brother."

"Yes!"

"I notice you’ve been silent ever since you returned, what’s wrong? Do you feel inferior now?"

"I..."

"Don’t worry, just speak freely, are you afraid I’ll spread things around? You know what kind of person I am, don’t you?"...

Lin Beichen intended to start by enlightening her, maybe he could use his own experience to help the downcast Chen Lin pull herself together quickly.

"Actually, ever since I returned, I know everyone has been very concerned about me, but I feel like I’ve let everyone down. My mother brought a very serious loss upon everyone, even though no one mentions it and they say we’re all family. But don’t forget, while in the Seventh District we said we’d shoulder things together. I believe all fellow comrades in the Seventh District will support you, because you’ve never done anything to harm the country, on the contrary, you’ve brought us honor, this we’ve all seen."

Despite these words, Chen Lin still felt inferior at this moment.
