Chapter 121 - 121 117 114 Distorting the Truth

121: Chapter 117 Chapter 114: Distorting the Truth 121: Chapter 117 Chapter 114: Distorting the Truth “This isn’t distorting the facts, Tongtong.

Sometimes people need to be more adaptable!” Director Zeng said with a faint smile, “This incident has had a huge impact, and besides, this kid is not a first-time offender.

Last time, a few people were accidentally killed because of him, and the records are still in my possession.

It’s just right to sentence the two cases together!

Anyway, one is the death penalty, and two is also the death penalty.

Let him make some contributions to the police force!”

“No, Director Zeng, how can you do this?

I absolutely won’t allow it!” Zhang Yantong said angrily.

“Tongtong, you need to be sensible!” Director Zeng looked at Zhang Yantong coldly and said, “As a police officer, you must unconditionally obey the orders of your superiors!”

“I…” Zhang Yantong bit her teeth and turned to run out.

She had not expected that Director Zeng would actually alter the materials for the sake of the police image, which was a complete violation of regulations.

Zhang Yantong immediately made a phone call to Zhang Kaiguo, but from him, she heard these words: “Tongtong, Uncle Zeng has his reasons for doing this.

I wanted you to learn in Jianghuai City to understand these profound truths, understand?

Some things are not as simple as you imagine but involve the interests of many people.

These nepotistic relationships are simply too tangled and complex to clarify!”

Zhang Yantong felt disappointed and lost.

She sat alone on a chair in the corridor, looking up at the ceiling.

That pristine ceiling was a blank slate.

If life could start all over again, how great that would be.

She would have preferred not to grow up in such an official family and to just be an ordinary person.

Thud, thud, thud…

A series of hurried high-heel taps on the floor announced the arrival of Li Ruo and Lin Ziwen.

Zhang Yantong was taken aback and hurriedly went to greet them, saying, “Mr.

Li, why have you come!”

“Our business division’s chief has been arrested by you.

He was about to take over a very important development case.

How could I not come?” Li Ruo snorted coldly.

Zhang Yantong bowed her head and suddenly realized how foolish she had been in her dogged pursuit of Ye Chen.

If she had let Ye Chen go at that time, perhaps she wouldn’t have encountered so many troublesome issues.

However, the past could not be repeated, nor could she go back.

Zhang Yantong could only grit her teeth and continue forward: “Mr.

Li, I am truly sorry, but Ye Chen has committed the crime of intentional homicide, so he won’t be able to work for the time being.

As for the case you mentioned, I’m afraid you’ll need to find someone else!”

“You must be joking.

A project worth several billion, can it really be so easy to replace someone?” Li Ruo huffed lightly and then said, “I want to see him now!”

“Alright then, please follow me!” Zhang Yantong knew she had let Ye Chen down, and in her confrontation with Li Ruo, she naturally fell short.

Led by Zhang Yantong, Li Ruo and Lin Ziwen entered the interrogation room where Ye Chen was squatting in a corner smoking.

When Li Ruo entered the interrogation room and saw Ye Chen, she suddenly found him so pitiable, so heart-wrenchingly sad.

Li Ruo couldn’t help but let the tears fall.

Lin Ziwen pulled Zhang Yantong out of the room.

Inside the interrogation room, only Ye Chen and Li Ruo were left.

“Mr.

Li, why have you come?” Ye Chen was startled and hurriedly snuffed out the cigarette, standing up from the ground.

He flashed a sunny smile.

Li Ruo, unreservedly, threw herself into Ye Chen’s arms, sobbing, “You bastard, why are you always such a worry?

Don’t you ever consider me even a little bit?”

“Don’t cry, don’t cry.

When you cry, I don’t know whether you’re Mr.

Li or Xiao Ruo!” Ye Chen laughed: “You’re not like this during the day!”

“Bastard, I’m not in the mood to joke with you right now!” Li Ruo bit her teeth and said, “Don’t you realize how worried everyone is about you?

You know that for intentional murder, you’ll be sentenced to death!”

“Don’t worry, I won’t die!” Ye Chen smiled lightly.

“That’s easy for you to say!” Li Ruo bit her silver teeth and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t let you die, even if I have to sell the Tianya Group, I’ll get you out of here!”

“I’m not worth it for you to do this!” Ye Chen shook his head, his hands cradling Li Ruo’s delicate and beautiful face, saying, “Maybe one day, you’ll realize that I’m just a passerby in your life; or perhaps, just an insignificant character!”

“No, you will always be the most important person in my life!” Li Ruo looked at Ye Chen seriously, then her mouth curved into a slight smile, saying, “Because you are my ‘slave,’ and as a master, how can I not even protect my own slave?”

Ye Chen was taken aback, giving a helpless smile: “Mr.

Li…”

“Shut up!” Li Ruo snorted coldly: “From today on, the master allows you to call me Xiao Ruo!”

“This…” Ye Chen’s eyes widened as Li Ruo’s cheeks flushed a bashful red.

She turned her head away defiantly, arrogantly saying, “Of course, don’t get any funny ideas.

I’m just allowing it because ‘Xiao Ruo’ sounds nicer than ‘Mr.

Li.’ I’m sick of hearing everyone in the company call me ‘Mr.

Li’ all day.

So I want you to bring a little novelty!”

“Okay!” Ye Chen nodded and called out softly, “Xiao Ruo…”

“Mm!” Li Ruo melted upon hearing his voice.

Ye Chen’s voice was deep and very magnetic, containing a masculine baritone that felt incredibly comforting to listen to, which is why Li Ruo was almost trembling with excitement.

After a brief moment of astonishment, she immediately responded, “Ye Chen, don’t worry, I’ll definitely find a way to get you out.

Just stay put here for now!”

“In fact, you really don’t need to go to all this trouble for me,” Ye Chen said with a wry smile.

“Be good, listen to me,” Li Ruo said with a gentle smile, and then walked out with an exceedingly light-hearted demeanor.

Zhang Yantong, seeing Li Ruo’s tear-stained face, couldn’t help but be taken aback, as was Lin Ziwen, who was curious – Mr.

Li actually cried?

But why did she look so relaxed and joyful?

Once they left the police station, Li Ruo said to Lin Ziwen, “Ziwen, help me make a call to Liu Jiangqiu and ask if he has any time.”

“Ah?!” Lin Ziwen was taken aback and said, “Mr.

Li, you’re planning to ask for his help?”

“Yes, it seems that he’s probably the only one willing to intervene right now,” said Li Ruo with a complicated expression.

If the situation hadn’t become so desperate, she would not have considered asking this man for help.

Liu Jiangqiu, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Committee of Jianghuai City, was in charge of public security.

Rumors were that Jiang Zhonggen was about to be transferred from Jianghuai City, making Liu Jiangqiu the most likely candidate to succeed him.

As a result, many people started to curry favor with Liu Jiangqiu even before Jiang Zhonggen had left Jianghuai City.

But this man was lecherous and greedy.

He was said to be financially supporting more than a dozen female university students in various places around Jianghuai City.

Liu Jiangqiu’s wife was from a rural background and was simply incapable of managing him; she held an indifferent attitude, content as long as Liu Jiangqiu did not abandon her, and thus tolerated his infidelities.

With his wife’s indulgence, Liu Jiangqiu’s behavior became even more rampant.

He patronized multiple women openly, and a lot of projects had to pass through his hands, thus, he made a fortune.

The plot of land that belonged to Tianya Group had been handled by Liu Jiangqiu; it took over two million to finally deal with this rotten apple.

At the time, this bastard even harbored designs on Li Tianya’s daughter, Li Ruo.

Fortunately, Li Ruo was in the United States, having been glimpsed by him only once at a dinner party, which had sparked his interest.

Seeking Liu Jiangqiu’s help now – wouldn’t that be like a lamb walking into the tiger’s den?

“Mr.

Li, shouldn’t we consider different options?” Lin Ziwen said anxiously.

“No need, just contact him for me,” Li Ruo shook her head.

Left with no choice, Lin Ziwen reluctantly dialed the number to Liu Jiangqiu’s office.

The secretary answered the phone, and Lin Ziwen’s face flushed at the sounds coming through the line.

Such a secretary indeed proved to be quite the ‘assistant’ in one’s personal life.

At that very moment, Liu Jiangqiu was embracing his secretary’s delicate body, vigorously thrusting without pause even as the secretary took the call, only intensifying his efforts in response to the interruption.

The secretary’s withering gasps continued unabated as Lin Ziwen quickly relayed the message.

Liu Jiangqiu seemed to catch something in Lin Ziwen’s words and agreed almost immediately without hesitation.

Decisively seeking his climax, he then released all the pent-up lust within him.

The secretary, twirling her hair with her fingers, held onto Liu Jiangqiu’s member.

“Heh heh, now you’re the one coming to me!” Liu Jiangqiu’s eyes revealed a lascivious grin as he tidied up and promptly made his way downstairs.

…

Green Mansion.

Liu Jiangqiu had already arrived at the venue, and the waitstaff greeted him obsequiously.

Liu Jiangqiu was a seasoned veteran in worldly society with over two decades of navigating officialdom.

Now at forty-three, ascending to the position of Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Committee in Jianghuai City was indeed a great fortune in his life.

Hence, wherever Liu Jiangqiu went, he presented a façade of vitality.

Especially now, with rumors of Jiang Zhonggen being transferred and himself poised to become the top authority in Jianghuai City, he was more delighted than ever.

“Vice Secretary Liu, welcome!” greeted a smiling attendant.

Upon hearing this, Liu’s brow twitched slightly, and then he responded with a chuckle, “Yes, I have an honored guest today!”

“Oh, then… please, Vice Secretary Liu, I’ve prepared a private room for you!” the attendant said with a nod and a smile.

With his head held high and chest puffed out, Liu Jiangqiu proceeded onwards.

Glancing at his assistant who was nearby, the male assistant caught Liu’s look and immediately understood, turning to leave.

The lobby manager immediately grasped the situation and shook his head in resignation.
