Chapter 1579: Chapter 1579: Courtyard Life (31)

Stepped forward, grabbed Sister-in-law Tang’s hand, and said, "Sister-in-law Tang, in front of the leader, you cannot be insolent."

"How am I insolent? I’m just pleading with the leader to make a decision for me." Sister-in-law Tang retorted, then looked up at the leader and said, "Leader, I’m here to plead for my husband Tang Jun. Please don’t send him back to his hometown, okay? Last time I got injured because I accidentally bumped into the cabinet, it had nothing to do with Tang Jun."

The leader listened to Sister-in-law Tang’s words and frowned. He was aware of the situation of Tang Jun being let go because he approved it. At that time, when reporting to the leader, it was said that Tang Jun couldn’t manage his household, not only failing to take care of his wife and children but also beating his wife into the hospital.

If it was just poor household management, it could be excused. But he absolutely shouldn’t have, under any circumstances, beaten his wife into the hospital. Such a person is not welcome in the company.

But today, Tang Jun’s wife actually came to plead for Tang Jun. Could there be more to the situation than it seems?

Thinking this, the leader glanced at the people in the corridor, then said to the leader and Sister-in-law Tang, "You two, come to my office."

Sister-in-law Tang was overjoyed upon hearing this, immediately stood up, and followed the leader into the office. The leader’s expression turned sour again.

However, he said nothing and followed them in. Once inside the leader’s office, the door was closed, shutting out the prying eyes outside.

Originally, the matter of Tang Jun being let go was confidential. Only a few leaders knew, but now with Sister-in-law Tang’s outburst, everyone knew.

"Leader, you have to stand up for Tang Jun!" As soon as Sister-in-law Tang entered the leader’s office, she immediately pleaded her case.

The leader did not respond to Sister-in-law Tang’s words but instead gestured for her and the political commissar to sit down on the sofa. Only after seeing them sit did he say to the leader, "What’s actually going on, you tell me first."

"Leader, this is how it went..." Director Yu recounted the events in detail. A few times, Sister-in-law Tang wanted to interrupt, but she was cut off by the leader’s gestures.

Once Director Yu finished speaking, the senior leader then looked at Sister-in-law Tang and asked, "Is this how it happened?"

"Leader, no, Director Yu is wrong. My husband Tang Jun didn’t hit me, I accidentally hit the cabinet; that’s how I got injured."

Upon hearing Sister-in-law Tang’s excuses for Tang Jun, the leader’s expression turned a bit sour and said, "Sister-in-law Tang, you know the truth in your heart, and so do I. I not only have the hospital doctors’ testimonies but also other family members’ testimonies. That day, when Tang Jun was hitting you, you were calling for help. You can’t deny that, can you?"

"I, I?" Sister-in-law Tang was at a loss for words. If no one had seen, she might still have room to argue. But there were indeed witnesses that day, and she had also harbored ulterior motives, intentionally letting people know that Tang Jun had badly beaten her.

At this moment, Sister-in-law Tang felt extremely regretful. If she had known earlier that this incident would ruin Tang Jun’s future, she would have endured it no matter what that day.

Unfortunately, hindsight is 20/20. No wonder Tang Jun should not have suggested sending her back to her hometown. If not for this, she wouldn’t have thought of leveraging outsiders’ help to stop Tang Jun from hitting her.

If not for this, there wouldn’t be any witnesses to Tang Jun hitting her, and she wouldn’t be in a dilemma today. So, after all is said and done, it’s Tang Jun’s fault.

The senior leader looked at Sister-in-law Tang’s expression and understood everything clearly.
