70: Chapter 7 Wedding Scene

It was 4:30 PM.

Chen Shaoping and Tian Jun, dressed as modern bodyguards, walked into the Mandarin Duck Hall of the Jingjiang Hotel.

To prevent the hosts from realizing they were crashing the wedding, the two even prepared a red envelope for the newlyweds.

The bride and groom, greeting guests at the entrance, accepted the red envelope, felt its thickness, and politely invited the two into the banquet.

The two quickly scanned the banquet hall but didn't see Liu Feng, indicating he wouldn't appear before 5 PM.

Meanwhile.

In a conference room at CCTV.

Lin Xiaotian, Zhou Xie, Cai Guoqiang, Lin Xin, and others were present.

All of them looked serious, but their moods varied.

A man in his forties was reading out the preliminary investigation results and disciplinary recommendations from the Central Propaganda Department.

"Regarding the online real-name report of Lin Xin's academic fraud, investigations have confirmed the report to be true and reliable."

"Lin Xin will be dealt with as follows: Lin Xin's position as a CCTV host is terminated, her wages of 531,237.14 yuan from these years will be recovered, and a fine of 300,000.00 yuan will be imposed.

She is prohibited from engaging in hosting work in the future."

"For facilitating Lin Xin's entry into CCTV, Lin Xiaotian and Xiao Yixiao, Head of the Human Resources Department, are dismissed from their positions.

They will be handed over to the Disciplinary Inspection Commission for further investigation into other illegal and criminal acts."

"Comrade Zhou Xie is temporarily appointed as acting Station Director to preside over the specific affairs of Longguo CCTV-3 Television Station."

"All comrades are urged to maintain integrity, be responsible, and dedicated individuals."

After the man finished reading, Lin Xin's face turned ashen, and she collapsed.

She couldn't understand how her Station Director uncle, who was so high and mighty just the day before, had become a prisoner today.

Just yesterday, she was a glamorous CCTV host, but the next moment, she couldn't even be a host anymore.

What puzzled her even more was why that person named Shao Ping would go out of his way to target her.

Diligently collecting evidence of her fraud.

Shao Ping, Young Master Ping, could they be the same person?

Such an absurd thought suddenly flashed through her mind, lingering for a long time.

Soon, Lin Xiaotian and Xiao Yixiao were taken away by comrades from the Disciplinary Inspection Commission.

Lin Xin was also directly thrown out of the CCTV office building by security.

All unrelated personnel left, leaving only CCTV staff.

Zhou Xie began to preside over the work as acting Station Director.

His eyes were cold as he scanned the room, finally settling on Cai Guoqiang.

"the singer & songwriter is a program our station will heavily promote in the second half of the year, bearing the responsibility of revitalizing Longguo's original music.

Given that the last episode almost had an accident, I believe Cai Guoqiang is getting old, has limited energy, and is no longer suitable to organize subsequent program work.

I suggest removing Cai Guoqiang from his position as Chief Director of the singer & songwriter and appointing the younger deputy director, Wu Tao."

"Those who agree, please raise your hands!"

Out of the thirty-two people in the conference room, everyone raised their hands except for himself.

Especially deputy director Wu Tao, whom he had promoted, raised his hand the highest and smiled the happiest.

Seeing this, Cai Guoqiang seemed to age several years, feeling utterly disheartened.

They say a new official brings three fires, but he never expected the first one to burn him.

He stood up tremblingly, walking slowly out of the conference room step by step.

On the other side.

Many hotel waitstaff were moving through the banquet.

Some serving dishes, some serving drinks, some serving wine...

The banquet was about to begin.

Liu Feng, dressed in a black suit, arrived late.

He looked upset, but he was dressed very handsomely.

After giving the bride a thick red envelope, his eyes lingered on her.

His hesitant expression startled the bride, who quickly sent him away.

"You go find a seat first; I'll come toast you later."

Liu Feng's eyes dimmed, he withdrew his gaze, and with a heavy heart, walked into the banquet hall.

How he wished he was the one standing next to the bride today.

"Darling, who was that man who just passed by?" the groom asked.

The bride chuckled softly, "Just a simp; he insisted on coming even though I told him not to."

"Darling, you're not angry, are you?"

"No, why would I be? I'd be happier if you had more simps like him; that red envelope just now was quite generous."

The couple exchanged smiles and continued to greet guests attending the wedding.

Chen Shaoping saw Liu Feng, stood up, and greeted him with a smile.

"Liu Feng, come sit here."

Although Liu Feng was depressed, he wouldn't hit a smiling face.

He sat next to Chen Shaoping.

"You are... I don't think I know you?"

"Look at how the three of us are dressed, and you'll know what's going on," Chen Shaoping said, pointing to Tian Jun.

Tian Jun looked at Liu Feng, instinctively feeling disgust, and suppressed the urge to immediately arrest him.

Liu Feng looked at their suits and instantly understood.

"You guys are also Yanzi's ex-boyfriends?"

Chen Shaoping nodded, pointed at Tian Jun, and said with a smile, "I was her previous one, and you're her next one."

Liu Feng didn't believe it.

"But Yanzi said..."

"Said you were her first man, right? She told me the same thing back then."

Although Tian Jun didn't like Chen Shaoping's arrangement, he still took over Liu Feng's sentence.

"Then are you Yanzi's first man?" Liu Feng looked at Chen Shaoping, a hint of envy flashing in his eyes.

Chen Shaoping looked sad and shook his head, "I wasn't either. I just don't know if the one before me will come today."

Liu Feng's heart ached slightly, "Yanzi is getting married, aren't you sad?"

"I'm not sad, I'm even a little happy."

"The person I love is getting married, and the groom isn't me!" Liu Feng said, then downed a glass of baijiu.

"Brother, try to think of it differently, it might make you feel better."

"You slept with someone else's wife."

...

The moment the groom kissed the bride on stage, Liu Feng could no longer hold back, finishing the remaining half bottle of baijiu in one gulp.

He almost collapsed directly onto the table.

Chen Shaoping and Tian Jun quickly supported him, each holding an arm, and helped him walk out.

The plainclothes Police Officers waiting outside immediately came to help.

"Da Ping, you go back first; we'll handle the rest," Tian Jun said.

"Okay. Be careful yourself; these criminals are not to be trifled with. Also, regarding what I told you, make sure to ask your leader to help me out."

"I know, you're more nagging than my mom."

Tian Jun left with Liu Feng, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

During the banquet, Chen Shaoping didn't let him drink because he knew there would be a bigger arrest operation later, requiring him to stay sober.

Although Chen Shaoping couldn't directly participate in the police operation, it wasn't against the law for him to wander around the vicinity.
