Hou Ning frowned at her superior opposite her and said with a puzzled expression, “We’ll do what needs to be done. Sir, why are you looking for me?”
Xu Long poured a cup of tea for Hou Ning and said with a gentle expression, “You know that Li Mu is from the military. If this matter gets out, it would be bad for our reputation.”
“What I mean is to ask your father to speak up and ask the Lu and Mu families not to spread this matter first. When the matter is investigated, if Li Mu really did something immoral, we’ll deal with it secretly.”
Hou Ning’s expression darkened. “Sir, this matter involves so many students. Even if the Lu and Mu families didn’t say anything and didn’t leak it, there were so many people present at that time. How can you be sure that no one would leak the news? At that time, if they find out that Li Mu really broke the law and that we deliberately covered it up, we would become an accomplice.”
“Hou Ning, what are you saying?” Xu Long’s expression darkened. Then, he asked with a probing expression, “Don’t tell me you’ve gotten close to the Li Family’s enemy recently, so you plan to use this matter to directly get rid of Li Mu?”
Hou Ning picked up her teacup and smiled. Then, she took a sip of tea unhurriedly and said slowly, “Sir, I’m very hurt by you saying that. Speaking of the people that I’m close to recently, isn’t it you Sir?”
“If Li Mu didn’t do anything, shouldn’t my father investigate to the end to prove Li Mu’s innocence and prove that our military doesn’t have people who do dirty things? Isn’t that good?”
Hou Ning paused for a moment and placed the teacup in her hand on the table. Then, she asked softly, “Is it true that Li Mu was playing with the female students?”
Xu Long was stunned by Hou Ning’s question. He didn’t know if it was true, but the higher-ups wanted him to talk to Hou Ning. Even if it wasn’t true, he was still a little involved.
However, he couldn’t say anything at this moment. He immediately pulled a long face and said in a reprimanding tone, “What nonsense are you talking about? This matter isn’t clear yet. Do you think it’s appropriate for you to speculate about your comrades like this? You don’t trust your comrades and the discipline of the military. Hou Ning, there’s something wrong with your mind!”
Hou Ning chuckled. “Sir, is it that serious? I was just asking casually. Why are you so agitated? I believe in Li Mu’s innocence and the restrictions of military discipline on Li Mu. I also believe that my father is an upright man and he will definitely clear Li Mu’s and our name.”
Xu Long originally wanted Hou Ning to persuade Du Jun to be flexible, but Hou Ning could not be persuaded no matter what. Xu Long waved at Hou Ning angrily. After Hou Ning left, he reported Hou Ning’s attitude.
At this moment, Li Mu, who was at the police station, insisted that he did not participate in the assault of the female students this time. The reason why he participated in this gratitude banquet was to secretly investigate the problems in the support network.
In order to clear his name, Li Mu directly emphasized that the person in the room with him this time was Lin Yin. Lin Yin was not a sponsored student, and nothing had happened between the two of them.
What he did was pretend to be a masochist and touch Lin Yin a few times to make it more believable. He did not do anything overboard.
On the other hand, Lin Yin broke his ribs.
The next morning, when he heard the news from the police station, Mu Ran gritted his teeth in anger and said hatefully, “That old thing actually said that carefully removed Yinyin’s makeup and said that a student shouldn’t have such thick makeup. He made himself look like a saint. He’s too shameless.”
Lin Yin recalled the scene at that time. According to what Li Mu said, there didn’t seem to be anything wrong. It was just that she was still sure what Li Mu was thinking.
“I used to think that Li Mu was clean and honest. He didn’t get married at the age of 40 and was focused on his career. I didn’t expect him to be so shameless in private!” Ye Wen was furious as she carefully applied medicine on Lin Yin.
“Mom knows Li Mu?” Lin Yin asked softly.
“We’ve met a few times. More than 20 years ago, he was a soldier under Fu Xi,” Ye Wen said.
Ye Wen only remembered it after she returned. Li Mu had been a soldier in Fu Xi’s hands back then. When he first entered the military, Li Mu was only 15 or 16 years old. According to Fu Xi, he was a fair and slender young man.
