Chapter 27: Daughter's Will, Hero's Folly, Consequences of His Actions

  This morning, Ye Haodong got up early as usual, weighed the day's rations, and then carried the food to the cooking class. When he was carrying the food to the outer room of the warehouse, he saw a scene that made his blood boil. Ayiguli was wearing only a small vest on her upper body, with only a small pair of underwear below, her beautiful blue eyes seemed to have mist flowing in them, looking at Ye Haodong with temptation. Her figure was trained from a young age through singing and dancing, it could be said that she had a devilish figure. At this time before 5 o'clock, in this place where only Ye Haodong would appear every day, she quietly dressed herself up like this, what this girl wanted to do next didn't need guessing.

  "My dad is transferring me to the division, I'm leaving this afternoon!" Aigul's big eyes welled up with tears, like a burst dam, and they flowed down.

  Ye Haodong furrowed his brow, with intense ideological struggles going on in his mind. He wasn't worried about whether he would be unfair to someone; the girl had already gone this far, and if he still hesitated, he wouldn't deserve to be called a man. However, if he did it, the most direct consequence would be that once discovered by the squadron and reported to Mai Ti Gongjiang's ears, Ye Haodong had no doubt that the deputy commander who had almost beaten Wang Siling to death with a whip would make him stay here for the rest of his life.

  Ye Haodong's food bag had fallen to the ground, and he stood there stupidly staring at the stunning beauty in front of him. The heavens and earth were at war for a long time, just thinking about saying, come on then, even if the sky collapses and the earth shatters, I'm not afraid of him. But Aiguli was afraid that he would say something to refuse her, so she rushed over, hugged Ye Haodong tightly, put her mouth against his, and blocked his words from coming out. Ye Haodong's body was like being struck by five thunders, as if it was no longer under his control, hugging the smooth-skinned girl tightly. The two silhouettes overlapped and fell onto the kang together.

  After a few minutes, the girl let out a painful cry. Twenty minutes later, she began to make rapid and satisfied coos. Ten minutes after that, Ye Haodong finally let out a sigh mixed with pleasure and pain amidst the girl's urgent coos.

  The two quickly put on their clothes, and Ye Haodong, who had already missed the time to deliver the grain, shouldered the grain and said nothing, just looked at Aiguli with a glance, nodded, and walked out. Aiguli caught up from behind, grabbed his hand: "I will bury this matter in my heart for a lifetime, giving you my first time I will never regret it! Will you think so too?"

  Ye Haodong shook his head: "I won't, I'll forget everything in a few days. From today on, as long as you're willing, you're my person. I don't need to remember every time we meet. The day I leave, I'll go find you. This lifetime, as long as you're willing, you can follow me."

  Aiyiguli was first sad, then surprised, and finally even more sad: "You have a girlfriend now, I know you love her very much, and you two will eventually get married. My dad would never agree to me being with you. To be honest, I knew all along that we wouldn't end up together. You said 'for a lifetime', but I don't care about that. As long as the days you spent by my side didn't leave any regrets, that's good enough for me."

  Ye Haodong turned back and gently stroked her delicate face, smiling: "Little thing, don't think of things in this world as absolute. Your dad isn't a feudal tyrant, and I'm not a useless scholar who elopes with a princess. We're still young, and our days are long. Who knows what will happen in the future?"

  Ye Haodong hastily walked away with the grain on his back, while Aiguli quietly cleaned up the kang, as if nothing had ever happened.

  That afternoon, Aygul's transfer order was delivered to the squadron department. After receiving the order, Aygul unexpectedly cooperated very well, hastily packing her luggage and quietly bidding farewell to the squadron cadres before getting into the car sent by the instructor department. Watching the departing Cherokee Jeep, Squadron Leader He Ruqiu and others all let out a sigh of relief at the same time, also feeling happy for Ye Haodong. This girl is just a ticking time bomb, with Ye Haodong's current status, if something happened between them, it would be no different from seeking death.

  Time flies, and it's time to harvest cotton this year. The squadron decided to adopt Ye Haodong's invention of group flow operation method to collect cotton. This move won the support of the prisoners and also greatly improved the speed of harvesting. After completing the cotton harvest, the squadron summarized its experience and reported it to the superior authorities. Not long after that, the commendation order from the division came down, and the squadron gained honor, not to mention Ye Haodong himself, who was awarded a reduction of half a year's sentence by the court.

  Ye Haodong has been serving his sentence since January 1, 1996. He has already served nearly two years of his ten-year sentence. After deducting the thirteen months that have been commuted and the two years he has already served, he still faces six years and eleven months of imprisonment. If we subtract the thirty-six months promised by Jiang Zemin, Ye Haodong's sentence will be reduced to just over three years. This year, his work record is again first place, so he can have at least eight to twelve months deducted from his sentence. Calculating this way, it seems that his time here may indeed not be long.

  On New Year's Day, an unexpected visitor came to see Ye Haodong. In the newly renovated regular visiting room, Ye Haodong met Yu Feng, Nong Junding's sister-in-law from Shencheng. This was their second meeting. What surprised Ye Haodong was Yu Feng's intention, as she didn't say she had come on behalf of Nong Junding to visit him. Instead, she claimed that seeing Ye Haodong was for official business. Yu Feng's intention was simple: an important suspect had specifically requested to see Ye Haodong and would cooperate with the investigation if he saw him. Her special identity made everyone in the prison take her seriously. After reporting to the superior department, the superior department surprisingly already knew about this matter and instructed the prison to fully cooperate, and the order was passed down from the branch team to the middle team, and no one dared to slack off. With a green light all the way, Ye Haodong was taken out of the prison by Yu Feng.

  The meeting place was arranged at the Shiwei City Public Security Bureau interrogation room. Across a one-way transparent glass, Nong Juntin held nearly 20-month-old Nong Sihao and looked at Ye Haodong with difficulty and shame. Yu Feng said on the side with a helpless face: "You've seen him, I can only do this for you, your father's will is unchangeable, if you want him to be safe and sound, listen to my advice, just follow the requirements of the elders."

  Nong Junting nodded: "Can I say a few words to him?"

  Yu Feng firmly refused: "Absolutely not, the old master had a stroke, and the grandfather in Beijing has not fully retired yet. Your grandfather does not want to worry about family matters. Now the head of the household is your father and your uncles. You know their attitude. For his sake and for you and this child, you must resolutely cut off your relationship with him. In fact, transferring his property to this child's name cannot be considered as taking advantage of him. After all, this child is his own flesh and blood. Giving the property to one's own son, wouldn't that be a loss for him? Moreover, there is also that compensation for him."

  Nong Junting felt a pang of sadness: "When I saw the letter he wrote to Zhu Saner, do you know what mood I was in? He trusted me so much, handing over such a rapidly growing and promising enterprise to me. He had hoped that I would take good care of this business for him. That transfer agreement was specifically aimed at my father and second uncle. He never could have imagined that now I would be the one to betray him."

  Yu Feng: "The rapid growth of Xīn Lǜ Group is the direct cause of this result. In just two years, they have monopolized the domestic high-end paper market and expanded the scale of that steel mill by more than a dozen times. How could the elders of the farming family have imagined that his invention of this franchise model would allow an enterprise to grow so rapidly?"

  Nong Junting sighed and said in a low voice: "It's because he grew too fast, the prospects were too enticing, that they wanted to do this."

  Yu Feng held her hand, lovingly: "Ghost girl, you don't have much to be sad about, his property is being passed down to his son, this is a good thing. You just need to raise Si Hao well, and in the future he can take over the family business, this is also a natural and righteous thing."

  Nong Junting shook her head: "Will the New Green Group still belong to Si Hao once it's in our hands? They chose Si Hao because of his blood relationship, and he will be the recipient of the transfer contract. I believe that as soon as the transfer is successful, they will first expand the scale of the industry, and then use the method of diluting shares to change the structure of the board of directors. It won't take long before Si Hao and I lose control."

  Yu Feng pretended to be displeased: "Are you not a farmer? Is this kid worth it for you to not consider your own family and son? As far as I know, he doesn't even know about the things between you two. Moreover, I know he has a girlfriend, right? You're treating him like a concubine, but have you seen his love for her?"

  Thinking of Nong Xiao, Nong Junting felt a bit relieved and sighed: "I know that the family's investment in Southeast Asia has been severely frustrated. The new green group's current channels and development prospects can indeed become the best starting point for the family's northern new strategy. As a child of the Nong family, I don't know how important this matter is to the family business, but I always feel that we are taking advantage of his trust in me, it's really too much."

  Yu Feng: "It's not that we're asking for nothing in return, the family's northern strategy can't be delayed any further, a large sum of funds has already been allocated, and the compensation you've managed to get from him may not reach the market value expected by New Green Group, but at least it's higher than what New Green is worth now. Two hundred million, that's enough for him to live a life without worrying about food or clothing."

  Nong Junting nodded, consoling herself: "I can only do so much, for the sake of the family I can only wrong him, at least in the short term, I am still Si Hao's guardian, and the largest shareholder of the new company, the company is also in his son's hands."

  Yu Feng: "You know, this kid's sentence is now less than three years. Think about it, without your help, he still managed to create the New Green Group and reduce his sentence by more than half with his own abilities. With the two billion in family compensation, are you afraid he can't make a comeback? Just look at the conditions he requested in the contract, this kid doesn't care about that."

  Nong Junting shook her head, with a mix of joy and worry: "It's not easy to talk about, the opportunities for someone to truly achieve something in their lifetime are not many, maybe only once in a lifetime. It's good that he can come out early, after all, he is still too young, hopefully he will have another chance."

  Yu Feng: "Not worried anymore?"

  Nong Junting smiled calmly and self-deprecatingly: "Just a stinky little boy, can't I find a man in this life? Sorry, what's so great about him? Our esteemed Nong family of Shencheng looks down on his small pattern, that's looking up to him."

  Yu Feng grasped her hand, which was sweating all over, revealing Nong Junting's inner weakness.
