139: Chapter 139 Destroyed by Ants
Liu Yuan and Su Nange were sitting together having breakfast.
Su Nange handed over a glass of hot milk; Liu Yuan was about to take a sip but immediately put it down.
Pouting, she looked very unhappy.
“What's wrong?”
“Hmph!”
“How inexplicable!”
However, Su Nange stood up, went to his backpack on the side, and took out an exquisite gift box.
Su Nange handed the box over: “This is for you!”
Liu Yuan's annoyance over Su Nange forcing her to drink the milk eased slightly.
Liu Yuan impatiently opened the gift box: “Huh? What's this?”
Su Nange smiled and took out two metal short stick-like objects from inside.
With two crisp “clack-clack” sounds, they actually transformed in Su Nange's hands like magic into an exquisite short knife.
Su Nange said, “This is a butterfly knife, custom-made specifically for you. You can carry it for self-defense. Besides, I'm sure you'll look great using it!”
Having said that, Su Nange demonstrated a reverse opening, a thumb roll, and then a Y2K. The butterfly knife performed infinite combos in his hand, dancing gracefully.
Liu Yuan already liked combat. This butterfly knife was made entirely of Damascus steel with extremely beautiful patterns.
So, she looked surprised and delighted: “Quick, teach me!”
On the other side, Zhou Wanqing had also run to the Provincial Party Committee compound early in the morning to have breakfast with her father.
She now wanted her father to apply some pressure from behind the scenes.
Zhou Bingzheng had always been like a veteran sitting steadily on a fishing platform; this Su Nange had truly given him too many surprises.
Moreover, according to his daughter's account...
These high-and-mighty figures didn't even know who was messing with them when they fell into the quagmire.
Even this high-ranking official couldn't help but admire the kid's wisdom and tactics.
Zhou Bingzheng smiled: “Early this morning, Director He Bangguo reported to me. I've also given instructions to Secretary Wang of the Discipline Inspection Commission. No matter what level of official is involved, there must be a thorough investigation to the end.”
“If the Municipal Procuratorate can't do it, let the comrades from the Provincial Procuratorate take over!”
Zhou Wanqing: “Dad, if some political balance is broken, will it affect you?”
Zhou Bingzheng became serious: “Wanqing, being hesitant and over-cautious is not a good mindset. In your unit now, you're no different from the top leader.”
“I must tell you, there is no perfect world. The responsibility of a top leader is to solve and handle the problems that constantly arise. Only in the chaos of the surging sea can a hero's true character be revealed!”
“In the face of the people's interests, you must never show womanly compassion!”
Zhou Wanqing froze. Su Nange had also said this to her.
She suddenly felt that in front of that kid, she seemed to be the naive one.
What was going on? Why did her heart feel unable to calm down whenever she thought of him now?
“Wanqing, what's wrong?”
Zhou Wanqing also nodded seriously: “Yes, Dad, I'll remember that!”
Lü Guangming spent the whole day silently staying in his office. The ashtray across from him was stuffed full of cigarette butts.
He had never had such a bad premonition before.
He felt as if a shocking conspiracy was enveloping him.
Once, he wanted everyone to remember him, but now, he wished the whole world would best forget him.
With that recording, the police clues were really easy to find.
With so many construction units, if you don't talk, aren't you afraid they will?
The citizens of Qiantang City had no idea that many comrades from the Procuratorate and the police had arrived at the subway construction sites still under construction today.
Project managers were taken away one by one for questioning.
These high officials had spent decades managing and trying to play a perfect image, appearing seemingly invulnerable. But once a breakthrough was found, it was like a flood breaking a dam—unstoppable.
Qian Hansen's hands were handcuffed as he sat in a narrow seat.
The serious man opposite him asked, “Qian Hansen, tell me, how exactly did Li Tongtong die back then?”
“You'd better think carefully before answering! We have confirmed this recording was made by Li Tongtong. Reportedly, she had always maintained a relationship as your lover.”
Qian Hansen already knew that he probably wouldn't walk out of this door again.
It turned out that to move up, Li Tongtong had secretly placed a recording device in Qian Hansen's pocket.
She wanted to get some leverage on this high official to threaten him.
But women are often a bit naive sometimes. There is no good end to fighting with such people.
In the end, she was forced to jump off a building.
Fortunately, before she died, she secretly gave the recording to Zhang Ping, a famous reporter from Zhijiang Television Station.
This caused Zhang Ping to receive death threats from the underworld, but luckily she had done promotion for Global Asia and got to know Liu Yuan.
With Miss Liu standing behind her, those people couldn't take her life.
However, it was impossible for Zhang Ping to release this recording.
She couldn't hand it over to anyone else either, because nowhere was safe. Who knew whose person the other party might be.
But as Su Nange and Zhou Wanqing stepped forward and broke the balance, the old case finally resurfaced.
The police were still conducting a surprise interrogation: “Qian Hansen, do you know this woman?”
In the photo was a good-looking young woman who seemed to have a lot of temperament.
The officer continued: “We found that you and this woman frequently visited River and Haojing. Please explain what you went there for.”
“Similarly, please think before you speak. Whether you can get a reduced sentence depends on your own attitude.”
Meanwhile, at Qian Hansen's home...
Several assassins in black were pressing sharp short blades against the necks of a mother and son.
Just as Qian Hansen was about to confess, the interrogation room door was suddenly opened.
The three officers in charge of the interrogation stood up: “Director Zhang, do you have any instructions?”
Director Zhang signaled everyone to sit: “Haha, it's nothing, just came to take a look.”
However, only Qian Hansen saw the fierce look Director Zhang just gave!
That was a threat; as long as he dared to speak, his wife and child would never see tomorrow's sun.
But what Qian Hansen didn't know was that his villa had already been surrounded by armed police.
The assassins were puzzled: “What's going on? Why did the police arrive so fast?”
Suddenly, a man's voice made them feel a chill down their spines!
“Because that's how it's played in TV dramas.”
One of the knife-wielding assassins hadn't even looked up before he felt himself being kicked flying.
When exactly did he sneak in?
For Su Nange, dealing with these low-level assassins was as easy as chopping vegetables.
Before long, he swaggered out and said to the group of armed police, “Go in and make the arrests.”
Qian Hansen felt desolate in his heart, not expecting that in the end, they would still treat him like this. Just like they treated his mistress, Li Tongtong, back then.
However, at this moment, the officer placed a photo from his phone in front of Qian Hansen's eyes.
It was his wife and child; they were safe and sound!
Qian Hansen finally had no more concerns: “I'll talk, I'll tell you everything!”
“That woman is... she's a mistress of Mayor Lü. We went to River to find the black market to help him... help him launder money~~”
Lü Guangming looked at a wristwatch on his hand. It was almost 8 PM.
Maybe it was time to go home. Maybe after tonight, everything would be fine.
Lü Guangming comforted himself.
But just before he was about to head out, his secretary walked in.
“Mayor... Mayor Lü. People from the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission, Secretary Wang's people, are here. They say they want to talk to you to understand some things~~”
The night scene in Qiantang was still beautiful and just as peaceful.
The common people were still busy in their homes, busy on the traffic-congested streets, and busy in the high-rise buildings where the lights hadn't yet gone out.
Only, they didn't know that on this night, the mayor of Qiantang had already fallen.
At this time, Su Nange, Liu Yuan, and Zhou Wanqing were gathered at that fried skewer shop on the rooftop.
Zhou Wanqing was very happy; today she rarely ordered an iced beer.
“Nange, I toast to you. Strategizing and winning from a thousand miles away—I, Zhou Wanqing, am impressed!”
Su Nange looked at the two good sisters in front of him.
He chuckled and said, “President Zhou, you flatter me too much. Although a thousand-mile dam can be destroyed by ants, isn't it also because the dam itself wasn't strong enough?”
Zhou Wanqing smiled: “Well said!”
Then, with her elegant poise, even eating skewers looked graceful.
“Hey, the skewers here are really delicious. Nange, the place you found is great! Yuan, don't be picky, try some.”
Beside her, Liu Yuan looked unhappy: “I don't eat such greasy things!”
Zhou Wanqing picked up a skewer and was about to stuff it into her mouth.
Liu Yuan instantly felt like a resentful woman being NTR-ed!
But what made her feel even more speechless was that after eating, she actually had to drive for the two of them?
Su Nange's car stopped downstairs at Zhou Wanqing's home.
Zhou Wanqing waved to the two in the front row: “You two, don't start fighting on the road! Nange, go easy on my good sister!”
Liu Yuan felt like she was really going crazy with anger! She really wanted to sing, ‘I should be under the car, not in the car!’
But right behind Zhou Wanqing, a man suddenly approached slowly.
“Wanqing, you're finally back. I've been waiting for you for a long time.”
Both Liu Yuan and Zhou Wanqing widened their eyes: “Liu Zongren?”~~
