Chapter 347

Shu Ying gave a cold smile.

"There's no need to apologize. If your parents knew, they'd probably be very happy, right?"

Du Chenzhou was taken aback for a moment, then quickly explained.

"I'm not asking about your family on behalf of my parents..."

Shu Ying didn't want to listen at all and interrupted directly.

"No need to say so much. Our two families have had a feud for so many years. We all know each other well."

However, thinking that his ancestors were now resting peacefully in a blessed land in the universe, in a fairyland-like place, undisturbed by the outside world, while the Du family's ancestral graves met such an end...

Shu Ying smiled.

All she could say was that Heaven is watching what people do. The Du family had committed countless evil deeds in the past, not only reporting them to the authorities but also once plotting to blow up their ancestral graves. They deserved their current fate.

In those days, it was already difficult enough for my grandparents and maternal grandparents to do things for the country under the guise of capitalists. The Du family had so many assets, but they only cared about transferring them, not doing anything for the country, and even thinking about causing trouble for the Shu family. I wish I could report the entire Shu family to the authorities...

If it weren't for the Du family, my grandparents might not have had such a difficult time back then, and they might have been able to accomplish what they wanted to do sooner and retire gracefully...

Shu Ying remembered all of this—this kind of person, this kind of hatred—for the Du family.

The Du family are all birds of a feather. Although Du Chenzhou hasn't done too many bad things, he hasn't done anything good either.

How could Shu Ying possibly give their family a kind look?

Any attempt to show them a kind look is considered disrespectful to their grandparents.

Seeing Shu Ying's coldness, Du Chenzhou understood that Shu Ying was probably not in the mood to talk to him. Du Chenzhou silently shut his mouth, sighed, and lowered his head.

Shu Ying glanced at her actions out of the corner of her eye and found them absurd.

Du Chenzhou used to never say more than a few words to her.

Whenever he appears with his mother, it's never a good thing.

If we were to run into their family again, the scene would surely be one of sparks flying and tensions running high.

Du Chenzhou's mother didn't like her, and she disliked his mother even more, always feeling that the woman couldn't distinguish right from wrong and was like an emotionally unstable madwoman.

It was clearly the elders of the Du family who did something wrong, but his mother didn't dare to blame them, so she shifted the blame onto her mother and grandmother.

But in all these things, his mother and grandmother were clearly the real victims.

But the Du family acted as if they were blind and deaf, completely turning a blind eye and venting all their resentment on the Shu family, as if this could cover up the mistakes of the Du family elders.

Such behavior is not only cowardly, but also disgusting.

How utterly incompetent must one be to take out their anger on unrelated people?

Dad was right after all; there really aren't any good people in Dujuan's family.

Howard and Lusca said everything they could, and after watching Xie Zhiyan negotiate with the police for so long, they couldn't help but feel uneasy.

"Are we going to have to stay locked up in this police station forever?"

"Yes, could it be that the Chinese public security and military have different opinions?"

Both of them looked somewhat worried.

Shu Ying turned her head and smiled at them.

"Please be patient, both of you. They probably just need to discuss some details, but there shouldn't be any problems."

Howard and Lusca nodded hesitantly, though they were actually prepared to remain locked up there.

However, to their surprise, Xie Zhiyan ended the negotiations a moment later and turned to walk towards them.

Under the expectant gazes of Howard and Lusca, Xie Zhiyan nodded.

When Shu Ying inquired, sure enough, the communication went very smoothly, some details and procedures had been agreed upon, and the public security department was very cooperative.

When Shu Ying relayed these things to Howard and Lusca in Russian, the two looked surprised and somewhat incredulous.

Du Zhiwei realized she hadn't had a chance to explain to them yet—

"Comrade Shuying and I were both dispatched by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to resolve this matter."

Although she really didn't want to admit it, she had to admit that Howard and Lusca seemed to trust Shu Ying more, and with her around, communication was much more effective.

"As for Comrade Xie Zhiyan, he is a representative sent by the military. He is a regimental commander in the military and has a certain say. You can rest assured that today's communication and decisions are effective."

“You have just explained your origins and purpose, and we are willing to give you basic trust.”

"You can complete the formalities and leave with us directly. Once your identities are confirmed with the relevant departments, you will be fully free and able to conduct normal working exchanges with our country."

Although Howard and Lusca knew that Xie Zhiyan was a member of the military, they did not expect him to have so much influence.

The two suddenly felt as if they had finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel, and they exhaled a deep breath, their faces showing obvious joy.

"That would be wonderful! We really don't want to be locked up like this anymore!"

The two happily discussed reconciliation.

Even the police were surprised that Howard and Lusca did not pursue the matter further.

After all, being suspected for no reason, many foreigners who are unfamiliar with China's situation and procedures will feel that they are being deliberately targeted.

After all, there have been similar examples in the past.

But in Howard and Lusca's view, the fact that China sent such an important person to pick them up was already a sign of sufficient sincerity.

Moreover, what happened at the station was an unexpected situation. The package was right next to them, so it was inevitable that they would be misunderstood and taken away for investigation.
