Chapter 456: Kicking Fu Guotai Away With a Single Kick!

Chapter 456: Chapter 456: Kicking Fu Guotai Away With a Single Kick!

Zou Ming was well aware that the situation had escalated significantly.

Just as Xu Qianli had surmised, Xia Dongyang was actually his man, responsible for laundering the dirty money he collected and using it to generate even more wealth.

But then Xia Dongyang got into trouble, was captured for murder, and his assets were confiscated. This resulted in a complete loss for him, which caused him to utterly despise Xu Qianli, wishing he could skin Xu Qianli alive.

Although he harbored deep hatred for Xu Qianli, Zou Ming had to hold back at the time because he couldn’t find a good way to deal with Xu Qianli right away.

He refrained, but his wife, Jiang Yufei, did not. She arranged for Zhang Jian to make a move against Xu Qianli.

As a result, things backfired. Not only did they fail to take care of Xu Qianli, but Jiang Yufei ended up in Xu Qianli’s clutches instead.

Now that Xu Qianli had revealed so much and set his terms, Zou Ming knew he had no choice but to see what this second option offered by Xu Qianli was.

If this option was viable, that was fine, but if not, he was not averse to a do-or-die showdown with Xu Qianli!

Zou Ming didn’t have to wait long before Xu Qianli promptly presented the second option.

"It’s quite simple. I don’t like that guy Fu Guotai, just help me out a bit and make him roll back to Cailin County!"

Xu Qianli was all too aware of why Fu Guotai had come to Jiang City, which was nothing more than to pursue Lan Qianrong.

Lan Qianrong was already his, Xu Qianli’s, woman, and he had no desire to watch his woman being buzzed around by such a repulsive fly.

Rather than waste energy wrestling with Fu Guotai and hinder his own work and progress, it was better to find a way to kick him out and send him packing.

Zou Ming said, "That’s it? Are you sure it’s that simple?"

Zou Ming had thought Xu Qianli would come up with some extremely harsh conditions but hadn’t expected it to be so straightforward.

Getting Fu Guotai to roll back to Cailin County might be somewhat difficult, but it wasn’t insurmountable. With his power, he could manage it.

Xu Qianli said, "That’s all there is to it. As long as Fu Guotai rolls back to Cailin County, I will let your wife go. So, what do you say, Secretary Zou, do you agree or not?"

"I agree!"

"I’ll take care of it!"

Zou Ming agreed immediately. Although Fu Guotai had a powerful background, at this critical juncture, he didn’t mind offending him.

Xu Qianli said, "Good, then it’s settled. However, we need to set a deadline for this matter. I expect to hear good news by tomorrow."

"By tomorrow?"

Zou Ming frowned slightly, "That’s not possible, the time frame is too tight. To arrange his return to Cailin County, many procedures need to be followed, especially coordinating with Wangdong Province. One day is simply not enough."

"How is it not enough?"

"If I’m not mistaken, with his hurry to come over here, his records are surely still in Cailin County and haven’t been filed in Zhongzhou City’s organization department, right?"

"Under such circumstances, sending him back is just a matter of saying so."

"Or is it that you, Secretary Zou, simply don’t want to do it?"

Left without a choice by Xu Qianli’s words, Zou Ming reluctantly nodded, "Alright, I guarantee it will be done by tomorrow afternoon! But I expect you to keep your promise and let my wife go, without pursuing the matter further."

Xu Qianli raised a hand, "I swear to heaven that as long as you get the job done for me, I will definitely not pursue your wife Jiang Yufei, or may the heavens strike me down."

Seeing Xu Qianli swear an oath, Zou Ming finally felt somewhat relieved and then said, "Can I take my wife away now?"

Xu Qianli said, "Don’t worry, let’s wait until Secretary Zou has settled things before discussing this."

"Can I see her?" Zou Ming asked.

"I’m afraid that’s not appropriate. After all, she is a suspect now, and it wouldn’t be good for you to meet her before we’ve come to a conclusion."

Xu Qianli refused again.

Zou Ming was furious, but he couldn’t do anything about it. This was Xu Qianli’s turf, he had no leverage to exert here.

Staying in Jiang City was pointless, so Zou Ming quickly left.

After Zou Ming had gone, Wu Kai came over to Xu Qianli, "Buddy, how did it go, did you settle things?"

Xu Qianli said, "It’s settled. I agreed not to pursue his wife, and he agreed to kick that son of a **** Fu Guotai back to Cailin County."

"Such a big issue, and you’re really not going to pursue it?"

Wu Kai couldn’t help but feel worried.

"You know you’ve offended him deeply, he won’t let you off easily."

"You handled it this time, but what about next time?"

"He is the City Secretary of Zhongzhou City, the top dog. If he really sets his heart on dealing with you, you’ll be in for it."

"Mayor Lu Xingtian is your arch-enemy, and now Zou Ming has become your mortal enemy as well. Can you really survive in the officialdom with them around?"

Wu Kai was genuinely worried for Xu Qianli.

The kid was tough, sure, but he was too rash, having offended both Lu Xingtian and Zou Ming in quick succession; this was not a sustainable situation.

Xu Qianli suddenly gave a mysterious smile and whispered, "I promised not to pursue his wife this time, but I didn’t say I wouldn’t pursue him! Let him help me deal with Fu Guotai first, there’s still a good show to come."

Hearing this, Wu Kai laughed heartily, patted Xu Qianli on the shoulder, and said, "You little devil, I really take my hat off to you; you’re too cunning. I bet he’s going to be spitting blood when the time comes."

While the two were talking, a female police officer ran over.

"Boss, that Tian Tian refuses to cooperate, won’t confess, and keeps insisting that Vice County Magistrate Xu raped her. She wants to sue Vice County Magistrate Xu."

"She’s adamant, saying Vice County Magistrate Xu raped her twice without taking any protective measures, and she wants us to collect body fluids for evidence."

"She’s so certain, she even described the positions Vice County Magistrate Xu used, how many positions they changed, how long it lasted; she even detailed the size dimensions of Vice County Magistrate Xu."

"As soon as we heard, we knew she was talking nonsense. Vice County Magistrate Xu isn’t a donkey, the size she described is too exaggerated to be true."

The female officer, as she spoke, felt her cheeks heating up and subconsciously glanced at a certain area of Xu Qianli.

He’s just a big living person, not a donkey reborn; how could he possibly be as exaggerated as Tian Tian claimed?

Xu Qianli said, "What she said is not wrong; I did sleep with her twice, and the size is not exaggerated. However, it wasn’t me who raped her, there’s another reason. Here, I’ll send you a video clip to prove my innocence."

Since Tian Tian was biting back, Xu Qianli didn’t hold back either. He extracted a video from her hidden recording device that showed Tian Tian entering his room, feeding him Viagra, and him pinning Tian Tian down. He gave the footage to the female officer as evidence.

Watching the received video, the female officer’s pretty face blushed crimson, her eyes widened in disbelief at the content on the screen.

Oh my God, Xu Qianli really was like a donkey reborn, he was incredibly robust.

As she continued to watch, the female officer’s legs went weak, and she felt too embarrassed to face Xu Qianli. She quickly scrammed to confront Tian Tian.
