Film and Television: I, Xu Lei, won over Chen Shuting

"Sure, I didn't say it couldn't be turned down, but these people will cause trouble if they lose their jobs. If this matter can't be handled, Qi Tongwei will have to take the blame."

Gao Xiaoqin nodded and said, "Um, my sister wants to talk to you about something tonight."

Chapter 126 A Leader Was Arrested (Please Subscribe, Thank You)

Lighting a cigarette, Xu Lei looked at Gao Xiaofeng beside him and said, "I think I know the difference between you two now. It seems like you have an extra mole."

Gao Xiaofeng said, "Yes, hahaha, it's our secret. Telling you doesn't really matter."

Seemingly wanting to speak, Gao Xiaofeng said, "When my sister and I first started working, we didn't know anything. At that time, many people had their eyes on us. Later, Zhao Ruilong discovered us and believed that we could do great things in the future."

"Spending money to train you?"

"Yes, he trained us and then started helping him gather resources. Originally, we were supposed to be a gift to someone else, but my sister is quick-witted, so Zhao Ruilong put her in charge of the group."

"I'm not very bright, so my sister suggested that I focus on cultivating my own sense of security, what you men often call a person suitable for marriage."

Xu Lei nodded.

One is glamorous and beautiful, the other is calm and composed—completely different styles.

"I have some business acumen, but I'm not an expert. My sister is good at taking care of people, but she's not an expert either. We complement each other."

"So I'm the one who benefits?"

"No, we're the ones who benefit. My sister and I both know perfectly well that at your level, if a woman doesn't demonstrate her value, she won't be able to stay by your side."

"Is it?"

"Yes, I really admire you. By the way, isn't Shen Jiawen a workaholic? She used to say she was stupid and couldn't concentrate on her studies, but I found out she secretly enrolled in some classes to learn new things."

"I feel that people who follow you will actually make progress on their own initiative."

Xu Lei reached out, and Gao Xiaofeng, lying in his arms, said, "Zhao Ruilong, will he really fall?"

"Yes, it's inevitable, but we can't rush it. We have to get that money out so that Jingzhou can develop better."

"Does that mean someone is going to be thrown out?"

"More or less, I reckon someone will make a move tonight."

That evening, Zhao Donglai received a call, listened to the tip-off with a shocked expression, and then immediately led his men to take action.

When Zhao Donglai arrived at the Shanshui Manor and pushed open the door, he was dumbfounded. He saw Chen Qingquan with a lewd look on his face, holding a woman.

Holy crap, is this some kind of high-stakes game?

Then, Chen Qingquan stated that he was actually learning English and questioned these people about their illegal trespassing.

However, Zhao Donglai still managed to arrest Chen Qingquan.

Interestingly, Chen Qingquan didn't take anyone with him; instead, he called Qi Tongwei.

"What? Chen Qingquan?"

"Yes, it was a tip-off from the public that prompted me to investigate. Little did I know it would be this important figure."

"You didn't bring it back, did you?"

"No, I'd like to ask for your opinion."

Qi Tongwei pondered for a long time before asking, "How many people know about this?"

"not much."

"If... well, never mind, let's just arrest them."

"Arrested, sir? Are you sure you want to arrest him directly?"

"He got caught, so it's his bad luck, there's nothing we can do about it."

Qi Tongwei was naturally unwilling, but nothing stays secret forever. There were too many people watching Jingzhou, and it would be unreasonable not to arrest some people.

Moreover, if you violate any rules during this period, the supervisory team will definitely be watching you closely.

When Li Dakang found out that Zhao Donglai had taken the person back, he was completely dumbfounded. He quickly got up and went to look for Zhao Donglai.

Looking at Chen Qingquan being interrogated, and then at the members of the supervisory team, he said, "Solidating prostitutes?"

Xu Zhong said, "Yes, it was prostitution, and it was caught on the spot. The girl admitted that she came specifically to accompany the leader. Chen Qingquan hasn't said anything yet."

"Okay, I'll go ask."

Li Dakang walked into the interrogation room, looked at Chen Qingquan and said, "If it were anything else, it would be fine, but why this particular matter?"

'I'm just learning English.'

"You can make a call now, because nobody will care about you. Don't you understand? Who reported you?"

Chen Qingquan's face was ashen. He was usually very careful in his work, and few people knew what he was doing. But now, he had been suddenly arrested, and he felt that something was wrong.

"The high-speed rail in Jingzhou has attracted a lot of attention, so Jingzhou must deal with this seriously and throw someone out. We don't know who that person is, but everyone is waiting to see who they will abandon."

"But in the end, it was you. I never expected it. You've spent your whole life in this game, and yet you're just a pawn in other people's eyes."

"I want to report this."

Li Dakang said, "Tell me slowly. The organization will determine your sentence based on the people you reported and the extent of your surrender."

After saying that, Dakang walked out of the house and said, "He will talk."

Xu Zhong and his group went inside and began the interrogation.

Li Dakang walked out of the house and silently looked at his phone. It was very quiet; no one came to plead for Chen Qingquan. There wasn't a single person there.

It was eerily quiet.

"Xu Lei".

Xu Lei said, "I did it."

"Huh? You're investigating Chen Qingquan?"

Xu Lei said, "I'm with Gao Xiaoqin and her sister, so it's not hard for me to know these things."

Why was Chen Qingquan chosen?

"It's nothing. From a business perspective, the equity distribution at Shanshui Manor isn't perfect. I hate the situation where multiple people are managing it. I want to buy Shanshui Manor and use it as my place to rest."

"So Chen Qingquan was chosen?"

Xu Lei said, "Yes, and it has to be Chen Qingquan. If you don't care about your wife's affairs, then we all find it meaningless. Since the other party has made a move against you, we will also make a move. So, this is the result of our discussion."

Li Dakang said, "Thank you."

"It's a small matter. I just didn't expect that Qi Tongwei wouldn't ask you to plead for him. It seems that Qi Tongwei is very patient. That's quite interesting."

"No need for leniency. Whether he pleads or not, if he breaks the law, I will take action against him directly."

Upright and impartial, Li Dakang previously had a weakness: his family. Now that his family was gone, Li Dakang was decisive.

It will be invincible.

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

Gao Yuliang paced back and forth at home, lighting cigarettes one after another.

Wu Huifen came out and said, "Chen Qingquan, you're a veteran cadre, and now you've been tainted with such a stain in your later years. Really, don't you even think about helping him out?"

“Brother, let me tell you, from this moment on, this person is no longer my secretary, and you are not to mention a single word about Chen Qingquan again, unless you want to die…”

Wu Huifen was stunned. She silently walked to the window and said, "My daughter needs to go to the United States. Otherwise, they won't agree to let her do the experiments."

“Why go abroad? The country is developing so well now. Don’t go abroad unless necessary. If possible, let your daughter come back.”

"go home?"

"Yes, Zhong Xiaoai and Xu Lei are together now. Didn't she always have a crush on Hou Liangping? I'll try to set them up when I get back."

Wu Huifen chuckled and said, "You really are a good father; women have all become your bargaining chips."

"I just want my daughter to be safe and sound."

Wu Huifen did not answer and returned to her room in disappointment.

Wu Huifen already knew that Gao Yuliang's relationship with Gao Xiaofeng had already reached a freezing point when Gao Yuliang was pursuing her.

If it weren't for her daughter, Wu Huifen wouldn't have continued living like this with her husband.

The supervisory team's methods have become increasingly strict, which has directly resulted in countless people paving the way for themselves, while others are paving the way for their children.

No one can predict the future.

Zhao Ruilong was stunned when he heard the news.

"Gao Yuliang was in charge of this, hahaha, Chen Qingquan got caught just in time."

He called Qi Tongwei and said, "Do you know who did it?"

"I don't know, Zhao Donglai said it was reported by the public."

"A tip-off from the public? Hahaha, that's a great excuse. You didn't do it?"

"It wasn't me. I'd like to ask if it was you."

"I'm not that bored. I still have shares in Shanshui Manor, but I'm withdrawing from it now."

Qi Tongwei said, "Are you sure it's not you?"

"Does it matter who it is? Suspicion will fall on us anyway. It all depends on how high a position Chen Qingquan has been in contact with. Qi Tongwei, if I arrest you, I'll come and visit you with some things."

The phone hangs up.

Qi Tongwei suspected Zhao Ruilong of doing it, while Zhao Ruilong also suspected Qi Tongwei of doing it.

There's no reason for this to have been done by an outsider, and besides, it's impossible for an outsider to know so much.

The news broke the next day, and countless people were shocked and saddened.

However, some observant people noticed that Li Dakang had bypassed many people's boundaries and personally handled the case.

However, reporters also captured footage of Gao Yuliang personally conducting a self-examination and actively requesting the organization to investigate him, since Chen Qingquan was considered one of his own.

This incident was even reported in the news and actively publicized.

Many people marveled at Gao Yuliang's noble character and integrity.

Hou Liangping also met his teacher.

"Teacher, why do you have to do this?"

Gao Yuliang said, "Since you want to investigate, then investigate from my side. You're a perfectionist, and I wanted to persuade you, but after thinking about it, I decided against it."

"I know."

"Gao Fangfang will arrive in Jingzhou by plane this afternoon. If it's convenient for you, could you please drive over and pick her up?"

Hou Liangping paused for a moment, then said, "Okay, teacher, I will go."

"Okay, you can investigate. It'll be fine."

For the first time, Hou Liangping began to suspect that his teacher might not have been involved in these matters.

Chapter 127 Old Fu's Test (Please subscribe, thank you)

Xu Lei and Yu Zui were talking on the phone.

"I've reported your case, and this will earn you credit. Aren't I being a good friend?"

Yu Zui said, "That's very kind of you. I was lucky. Old Fu and the others wanted to investigate those leaders to see what they liked to do, so I investigated as well and that's how I found out about the Shanshui Manor. By the way, I need your cooperation in an operation."

"Cooperate in the operation? What do you mean?"

“I suspect that Lao Fu will still doubt the people on the inside. I need to create a scenario to make Lao Fu completely trust me.”

Can you break the rules?

"I can't break the rules. I'm an undercover agent, but I'm also a police officer. I can't break the rules."

Xu Lei thought for a moment and said, "I'll get you something here, and then I'll prepare some antidote for you."
