Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 1979: Chapter 1972: Viewing the Lanterns

”What good is swearing? Go back and investigate, everything will be crystal clear!”

”I’m not going. I know that once I go in, I will definitely not be able to come out.” Since they’ve come to arrest people, it proves they must have solid evidence.

”Who said you can’t come out? As long as you can explain your situation clearly, you can come out!” someone from the National Security Bureau said.

”I’ll confess! Isn’t it enough if I confess?” An Hui knew he couldn’t escape, but he thought the business of buying and selling information with the waiter might not be a big deal, so he confessed this matter, ”What the waiter said is true. I did have him eavesdrop! But I absolutely did not sell it, this information did not come from me!”

”Alright, stop making excuses!”

”I’m really not making excuses. I didn’t even have the chance to sell this information! Heaven and Earth are my witnesses. If I dare to lie, may I be struck by lightning!” An Hui was so anxious he felt like stomping his feet.

This matter was indeed not carried out yet. It was only tomorrow when the boss would return, meaning the transaction could only take place tomorrow.

Since this information was already leaked today, then this information definitely wasn’t leaked from here.

”You see, you’ve already confessed, take him away!”

”Even the previous part counts?!!” An Hui panicked.

”Of course it counts! Take him away!”

Autumn turned into winter, and in the blink of an eye, another year was about to end.

At the end of this year, many matters had reached a conclusion.

The investigation into An Hui’s case was clear, and based on the nature of the crime, he was sentenced to twenty years in prison.

In the days that followed, Jiang Guixiang kept waiting in vain for her son to visit her.

So she asked the prison guards about the situation.

The prison guard told her that her son, An Hui, had been sentenced on espionage charges and was serving his sentence in another prison.

Jiang Guixiang instantly felt like the sky was falling. She couldn’t see the future and felt hopeless. She thought she would just wait until one day when the news came that An Baoguo had died of illness, then she would end her own life in prison.

.............................

The snow was falling heavily again, marking another year.

After a joyous and bustling New Year, the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth of the first lunar month arrived.

This year, Gu Shuangshuang and Tian Niu stayed in Nancheng City to celebrate the Lantern Festival with their child.

Li Zhi got married this year, and the couple quickly conceived a little life.

At this time, the girl was three months pregnant and experiencing severe nausea, so Duan Aihua was diligently taking care of Li Zhi’s wife.

After all, Li Youjun treated Gu Shuangshuang as his own, and naturally, he felt obliged to care for Li Youjun’s son as well.

So, after Gu Shuangshuang and Tian Niu returned from the Tian Family village, they did not go back to Jiangning City.

The couple also felt they’d only create more chaos if they went there, so they returned to Nancheng.

This day was the Lantern Festival on South Street.

The couple took little Nannan with them and arranged to meet An Hao’s family of four to see the lanterns.

The night was hazy, and South Street was lined on both sides with various lanterns. People still crowded in to view them, much like in previous years.

The two families agreed to meet at the intersection.

After dinner, An Hao and Qin Jian brought their pair of twin brothers to the corner of South Street.

Shortly after, Tian Niu and Gu Shuangshuang also arrived.
