"Military wife, stop right there!"
The crowd turned toward the voice; it was the young female soldier who had just passed by.
A "Bayonet Star" badge was pinned to her chest, and the documents she was carrying were imprinted with the words "Propaganda Department."
The female soldier took a few steps to stand in front of Li, her gaze as intense as a torch.
"What were you saying just now?"
Li's face suddenly turned pale, stammering: "I... I didn't say anything."
"I heard you." The female soldier's voice wasn't loud, but every word was clear: "You said Comrade Lin Wan Yi was buying people's hearts, claiming it's the capitalist's daughter's trick."
She lifted her chin, pointing to the pile at the Gu Family's entrance.
"These are consolation goods from the headquarters, specially airlifted by Commander Gu's wife, for the daughter-in-law who made contributions and is pregnant with twins."
"Why, in your mouth, do these become a means to buy people's hearts?"
