Chapter 215: Chapter 215: I Have Always Been Loyal to the Seventeenth Bureau

Gu Hai spent nearly five minutes gathering all the food from the ground onto the plate.

Aside from some soup, the floor was almost completely clean.

As for the table, it was relatively easier, and with a few scrapes, everything was on the plate.

Looking at the pile of slop-like food on his plate, many felt nauseous.

After a few seconds of mental preparation, Gu Hai picked up a spoon and started eating.

Gu Hai ate very fast, shoveling large spoonfuls into his mouth and hardly chewing before swallowing forcefully.

Of course, he couldn’t chew much, as Lu Xiao had knocked out most of his teeth just moments ago.

About three or four minutes later, the plate was empty.

In the end, Gu Hai even drank the remaining soup from the plate cleanly.

"Is that enough?" After finishing, Gu Hai stood up and asked Lu Xiao.

At this moment, Gu Hai had lost his previous arrogance, and even his hatred was completely hidden.

"Not bad, you are ruthless." Lu Xiao stretched out his thumb and said with a smile.

Hearing Lu Xiao praise Gu Hai for being ruthless, Gu Lianbiao suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Can I go now?" Gu Hai asked again.

Lu Xiao raised an eyebrow, and a cold smile flashed across his face, "If I remember correctly, I said I would consider letting you go if you ate everything. I didn’t say I definitely would, did I?"

Gu Hai was stunned, and intense anger and madness nearly drove him berserk.

"Heavenly Man Lu, may I please ask for a favor?" Gu Lianbiao spoke again, this time with a pleading tone.

Lu Xiao did not believe Gu Lianbiao’s show of weakness at all.

This old fool only looked pitiful because he couldn’t provoke Lu Xiao himself.

Would Gu Lianbiao act this way towards someone else, towards an ordinary member of the Seventeenth Bureau?

Hell no!

Who allowed Gu Hai’s arrogant and presumptuous behavior? It was Gu Lianbiao.

"Okay, then I’ll consider it again." Lu Xiao nodded, "You wanted face; I gave it to you."

A few seconds later, Lu Xiao coughed and said, "Well, I’ve made up my mind. My decision is not to let your grandson off."

Gu Lianbiao was completely upset, barely able to control the furious anger within him.

"Lu Xiao! What more do you want? We hit you, we humiliated you! What else do you want?" Gu Lianbiao clenched his fists; in all his years at the Seventeenth Bureau, he had never seen such a nauseating person.

"Of course, I want to kill your grandson," Lu Xiao spread his hands, "I’ve made my demands clear from the start."

"But the Seventeenth Bureau can’t just kill someone on a whim, so ultimately, what I think isn’t important, what matters is how the Seventeenth Bureau decides to deal with your grandson."

Hearing Lu Xiao’s words, everyone was stunned; damn, that actually made sense.

Gu Lianbiao was also stunned for a moment; yes, Lu Xiao couldn’t just kill Gu Hai publicly, so he could maneuver behind the scenes and potentially minimize the punishment.

"Guards, take Gu Hai into custody," Gu Lianbiao immediately shouted at the surrounding guards.

Now it seemed that locking up Gu Hai was the best strategy.

Lu Xiao didn’t say a word, just quietly watched.

He also was curious to see how much the Seventeenth Bureau valued him.

If they were afraid to deal with even Gu Hai, then this place probably wasn’t worth staying in much longer.

Moving forward, there would likely be endless troubles; why bother adding to his own frustrations?

"No need for custody," another voice rang out.

Lu Xiao licked his lips; Goo Yuexing had finally arrived.

"Director," everyone greeted Goo Yuexing as he approached.

Seeing Goo Yuexing, Gu Lianbiao’s face paled again.

With Goo Yuexing’s arrival, it essentially represented the high-level attitude.

"Directly send him to the disciplinary office," Goo Yuexing told the guards escorting Gu Hai.

"Director..."

"Gu Lianbiao, see for yourself." Goo Yuexing didn’t mince words and directly handed Gu Lianbiao a folder.

"See what your excellent grandson has been doing in the Seventeenth Bureau over the years. Abusing power, taking bribes, selling information, numerous counts of malfeasance, any one of these is enough to execute him ten times over!"

Gu Lianbiao did not flip through the folder; since Goo Yuexing had already spoken, it meant the evidence was set, the accusations confirmed.

"As Gu Hai’s grandfather, it’s hard for me to believe you weren’t involved."

"Take Gu Lianbiao to the disciplinary office as well," Goo Yuexing waved his hand.

The surrounding guards immediately stepped forward, restrained Gu Lianbiao, and took him away.

They weren’t even sparing Gu Lianbiao? People around couldn’t help but swallow hard, it seemed they had underestimated Lu Xiao’s standing with the upper echelon.

Gu Lianbiao, a man of significant authority within the Seventeenth Bureau, was so easily dealt with.

"Heavenly Man Lu, are you satisfied with how I handled this?" Goo Yuexing approached Lu Xiao and immediately put on a personable demeanor.

Lu Xiao looked intently at Goo Yuexing, then nodded, "Director, where’s this coming from? I have always been loyal to the Seventeenth Bureau, whatever you decide, I fully support with both hands raised."

Upon hearing Lu Xiao’s response, Goo Yuexing paused for a moment, then burst into uninhibited laughter.

He was truly happy because the biggest concern he had... was gone!

Lu Xiao’s martial arts talent was off the charts; the fear was that Lu Xiao, being young and impulsive, only knew how to fight and compete.

Now, it seemed, this guy had a sharp mind too.

"I have always been loyal to the Seventeenth Bureau, whatever the Director decides, I fully support... If I didn’t know today was your first day on the job, I might have believed you," he joked.
