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

Page 91

Xu Zhong said, "You mean, the video has been found?"

"It doesn't matter anymore. Whether I found it or not, I've achieved my goal. Also, you seem to have misunderstood something. You want me to give advice? Sure, but you can't hold me to the standards of a policeman. I'm a businessman; maximizing profits is my core objective."

Everyone suddenly realized that they were indeed asking too much of Xu Lei.

Xu Lei did indeed maximize his profits by doing so.

"Furthermore, Lin Shengwen's mistress naturally enjoys Lin Shengwen's secrets as well. I simply don't believe she wasn't involved in drug trafficking. It just shows that you haven't been strict enough in some areas. If you had been strict enough, this woman would be the one reporting Lin Shengwen now."

After Xu Lei finished speaking, he stood up and said, "If it's nothing, and you're just trying to cause me trouble, I'll leave now. If you want to continue discussing the plan, then I'll stay."

Xu Zhong asked Xu Lei to sit down.

The others all lowered their heads.

Xiao Wu handed Xu Lei a piece of candy, then reached out and shook Xu Lei's hand.

Tell Xu Lei that I'm on your side.

Tell me your next plan.

"The other side will try to shift their focus, but I'm waiting, or rather, they've already arrived, we just didn't expect it."

What are you waiting for?

Xu Lei pointed to the sky and said, "Wait for the wind from Jingzhou to blow, or rather, the wind from Jingzhou has already blown. Jingzhou will not allow things in Dongshan to escalate. If you achieve any more success, you can take action against Jingzhou. Put yourself in my shoes. If I were Zhao Ruilong, even if I killed Lin Yaodong, I would not let you get any great credit in the end."

Li Weimin said, "I apologize for what happened before, but I still want to keep casualties to a minimum."

Xu Lei said, "I understand, you're a good cop, but it's not enough for a good cop to fight drug dealers. You should have an undercover agent, right? Let me guess, Zhao Jialiang, right?"

Li Weimin was stunned and looked at Xu Lei.

"Honestly, Li Fei isn't suited to be a policeman. He's too impulsive and prone to making things worse. But you've always allowed it. Is your godfather enough? There's only one explanation: your old comrade-in-arms is on the front lines."

Li Weimin clapped his hands and said, "Brilliant, brilliant!"

Xu Lei stretched and said, "We're in the open, and they're in the shadows. I need to create chaos so that Lin Yaodong's plan will be disrupted. Only when it's disrupted will we have evidence. If things don't get chaotic, we can forget about catching this guy again in this lifetime."

Li Weimin asked, "What will the other side do next?"

"We'll give you some performance bonuses, which will serve as an explanation to Jingzhou and also divert attention."

After saying that, Xu Lei left.

Just as Li Weimin was about to say something, Xu Zhong stopped him, saying, "We shouldn't hold Xu Lei to the same standards we apply to police officers. Xu Lei is a businessman; profit is his true nature."

Li Weimin said, "But it was still our dereliction of duty."

"It's your responsibility that you didn't protect him properly. You just thought the other side wouldn't go all out, since Lin Shengwen belongs to their family, and that woman is practically their daughter-in-law. But they still made a move. This shows that Lin Yaodong really doesn't care about the means to achieve his goals."

"In our next task, we need to be more cunning and more cautious. We absolutely cannot let this tragedy happen again. Otherwise, we can all quit and go back to farming."

It's clear that Xu Zhong is very angry.

After everyone left, Xu Zhong said, "You acted quite well."

Li Weimin said, "Well, Xu Lei is quite cooperative, but is it appropriate to disclose the plan?"

"This is the final thorough investigation. If nothing goes wrong this time, then we'll maintain the current team. If something goes wrong, then we'll disband it."

"Add fuel to the fire?"

At this moment, someone walked in and said, "Director, Xu Lei has smashed up your office."

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

At this moment, Xu Lei was smashing things very recklessly, as if he were really angry.

Li Fei was stunned when he saw this downstairs. My god, isn't this guy a bit too ruthless?

Li Weimin looked at Xu Lei and said, "Boss Xu, what are you doing?"

"What are you doing? If you're unhappy, can't you smash things? I didn't come here to make things difficult for me. If that's how you treat me, I won't have invested here."

Li Weimin chuckled and said, "Men, arrest him."

No one dared to speak up, and no one made a move. In the end, Li Weimin took matters into his own hands and put Xu Lei in jail.

"What are you looking at? Don't you need to work? I'll handle any problems myself."

Xu Lei was locked up again, and the news quickly spread throughout Dongshan.

Lin Yaodong received the news immediately.

Then he was very shocked, and then began to ponder what exactly caused this.

Soon, Lin Yaodong got what he needed, and someone told him what had happened.

Xu Lei and Li Weimin started arguing, and then Xu Lei smashed up Li Weimin's office.

The argument was about Xiao Wu, a woman Xu Lei had his eye on. Xu Lei said Xiao Wu was being mistreated and had no say in the matter.

Xiao Wu was seconded here to work in the publicity department. The publicity department in Jinghai is doing a great job, so they plan to expand it to a wider area.

"That's typical of him."

Lin Yaodong smiled helplessly. It was clear that Xu Lei hadn't been involved in the matter; he probably just knew about it and disliked the appearance of the poison in Jinghai.

"I should also make a call to help out, Mr. Xu."

Subsequently, Lin Yaodong began to take action.

Meanwhile, Li Weimin's phone was ringing off the hook with calls from people asking what had happened. Li Weimin simply said that Xu Lei had acted impulsively and stood up for the girl.

The bureau had heard about this matter; Xiao Wu was always a slow talker and didn't like to communicate with others.

However, after being trained by Xu Lei, Xiao Wu has grown a bit taller, and his overall complexion, appearance, and figure have all improved significantly.

Many people are thinking about it.

Xu Lei was actually telling everyone this time, "Don't even think about my woman."

If anyone has designs on me, I'm not going to follow the rules anymore.

Group ⑶ Qi ⒈ Qi ⒉ Wine (I) Yao Wine

Soon, Zhang Huimin from Haoyu Group arrived at the police station with gifts.

I met Xu Lei.

"The boss sent me here to plead for you, but why bother?"

Xu Lei said, "Haven't I always been like this?"

Zhang Huimin said, "You really are something else. With you like this, women will be unable to leave you. Anyone who likes you is probably in big trouble. Thank you for allowing me to be willful and for giving me the tape you recorded."

"Little one, is there any food in the gift?"

Zhang Huimin took out some fruit and said, "Bananas, would you like some?"

"I don't want it, you can keep it for yourself."

"I take back what I said before, you really are an idiot."

Zhang Huimin has left.

Xiao Wu prepared a bowl of wontons and said, "Sister Jingjing asked me to give these to you."

Xu Lei nodded and happily began to eat.

Are you waiting for me?

"Yes, I'm sitting in the car waiting for you, Sister Jingjing. She's a very nice person."

“You’re great too, Xiao Wu.”

"I...I...I...I...No, I'm not good enough. I haven't even protected you. Here, you only know me. You don't know anyone else. I'm not capable enough."

Xu Lei reached out and pinched Xiao Wu's nose, saying, "Be good, I have my own way of doing things, don't worry about it, just enjoy it."

"Yes, I will be good."

At this moment, another person came over with instant noodles. When he saw Xu Lei eating wontons, he didn't say anything and turned to leave.

"Don't go, Cai Yongqiang, come on, let's eat something together."

Cai Yongqiang said coldly, "No."

"Sit down, Xiao Wu. Go find a stool. By the way, do you have any pickled vegetables or snacks?"

"I have some leftover fried food in my office, do you want some?"

"That's great! Give it to me, give it to me, share it. Oh, and you definitely have more sausages, don't lie to me, I know."

Cai Yongqiang was speechless, but in the end he still brought over all the things, big and small bags.

Xu Lei casually took a couple of bites, squinted, and said, "The food isn't expensive, but it's very well-made. The taste is definitely better than some of the average food on the market."

"what do you want to say?"

"Officer Cai, you're very rich."

"How did you deduce that?"

"It's a kind of tacky sophistication. You're a police officer, you can't flaunt your wealth, but you seem to be very picky about food, yet you always choose the cheapest options."

"In conclusion, you're a rich and good cop."

Cai Yongqiang was stunned for a long time before saying, "Nobody believes I'm a good cop."

"Because you don't smile, naturally no one will believe you. It's normal, it's a small matter, I believe you."

Cai Yongqiang is definitely one of the most compelling characters in the series. Please, in a TV drama, someone wearing a Vacheron Constantin watch wouldn't be broke, would he?

The director wouldn't make a mistake on such a detail, but this deliberate arrangement is also foreshadowing.

Cai Yongqiang is not short of money, so Lin Yaodong cannot bribe him.

After finishing his wontons, Xu Lei started thinking about the instant noodles in Cai Yongqiang's hand.

"I'll make you another one."

"No rush, Xiao Wu, go and get it done."

Xiao Wu left.

Xu Lei asked, "Cai Yongqiang, are you willing to cooperate with me?"

Cai Yongqiang said quietly, "How do we cooperate?"

"It's very simple. Just play your role as a corrupt cop well, make people suspicious and misunderstand you, and at the right time, you can also show your concern. After that, it's very simple."

"I need a reason."

Xu Lei said, "Ma Yongbo is a protector, and... I have concrete evidence. Isn't that enough?"

"I don't understand, how did you catch him?"

Xu Lei thought for a moment and said, "Because after I smashed up Li Weimin's office, I knew who made the phone call. All your calls were tapped, but I went through the telecom operator's route. It was a kind of hidden cooperation."

Cai Yongqiang thought for a moment and said, "I know today is all an act, but I never expected that you were plotting against me."

"Yes, it was all aimed at you from the beginning. I want to kick Ma Yongbo out, so I need someone to replace him. Oh, and if Lin Yaodong sends any more gifts, remember to accept them."

"I will write it down and record it."

Dumbhead.

"Give it to me."

Cai Yongqiang was speechless and said, "Are you short of money? You want this money too?"

Xu Lei looked at Xiao Wu who was walking over.

"I understand. I'll make it reasonable. As long as Li Weimin agrees and the supervisory team agrees, I have no problem."

"I should be rewarded for what I do, I'm not a policeman."

Then, the mayor from Dongshan arrived, saw Xu Lei, and asked him a few questions.

Xu Lei expressed that he trusts Cai Yongqiang and that Cai Yongqiang treats him very well.

The mayor understood Xu Lei's meaning and looked at Li Weimin, saying that Cai Yongqiang was indeed very good, but it was really inappropriate for him to always be in the position of brigade leader.

Li Weimin said that he would handle it.
