The Tempting Road to Becoming an Official

Chapter 536


"Jiangdong Province is one of the provinces with the most private enterprises in the country, and it is also one of the first provinces to implement stock system reform. From a certain perspective, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Jiangdong Province is a weathervane for the national private economy, would it?"

Ling Li asked.

After Chen Fang nodded, Ling Li continued, "As one of the earliest enterprises in Jiangdong Province to go through stock system reform, Boiling Point Group has always been seen as a template. Guan Xiaoxian, as a representative figure of the private economy, has indeed made significant contributions to the economic development of Guyang City. The Economic Development Zone has already been established, and the work of attracting investment has begun. If you take action against Guan Xiaoxian now, it would not only greatly affect the investment attraction of the Economic Development Zone, but more importantly, the fall of this benchmark figure in stock system reform would certainly cause a stir in the provincial business community."

"Are you saying that Guan Xiaoxian shouldn't be touched?"

Chen Fang asked.

Ling Li nodded slightly.

Said, "What I have mentioned is merely the impact of taking action against Guan Xiaoxian. In fact, he is indeed as influential as he claims, well-connected in both the legitimate and illegitimate spheres. He even dared to cross Director Pei, so it's possible he wouldn't hesitate to cross you, and that's why I'm telling you to tread carefully."

Ling Li's words.

Were entirely well-intentioned.

Chen Fang was not one to overreact; he understood.

After pondering for a moment.

He smiled slightly and said, "Vice Secretary Ling, thank you."

Ling Li blushed and replied, "We don't need to say thank you in our relationship. I'm just worried about you."

"I know."

Chen Fang paused, then said, "But what about those who have been harmed by him? What about Gong Qiu? What about Shi Ming? What about Song Yan? Are we to say that these people who fought for justice all died in vain? If we can't protect such people, if no one avenges them, do you think there is still hope for this world?"

Ling Li sighed deeply.

After hesitating for a while.

Said, "Just like last time, I will always stand by your side. Whatever you decide to do, I will support you."

Chen Fang patted her on the shoulder.

Said, "If all goes as expected, Guan Xiaoxian will make a big move tomorrow. Try to find a few trustworthy people to protect Director Pei's family."

"Okay, don't worry, I'll handle it."

Ling Li nodded in response.

Just as Chen Fang was about to turn and leave.

Ling Li suddenly grabbed him and asked, "Where are you going?"

Chen Fang smiled and replied, "To find someone who can take down Guan Xiaoxian."

"Someone who can take down Guan Xiaoxian? Is there such a person?"

Ling Li asked in surprise.

Chen Fang smiled faintly and said, "Either way, we have to try."

Stepping out of the hospital's doors.

The sky had finally begun to brighten.

Moving to a car in the parking lot.

Yu Zhengchuan, Hua Limo, and Chen Rulin, the three of them were waiting inside.

"How is Director Pei?"

Chen Rulin asked with concern.

Chen Fang replied, "He's fine, those people didn't take his life, probably just wanted to stop our investigation."

With that statement.

The four in the car grew worried.

Of course, it wasn't their own safety they were anxious about, but rather how the case could continue.

Those related to the case are either dead or have disappeared. Pei Shanglian, the greatest asset, is now lying in the hospital. Although Chen Fang is the Secretary of the Disciplinary Committee and can command his subordinates, from what angle should they approach the case?

Time waits for no one.

Guan Xiaoxian said he hoped that after tomorrow, Chen Fang would still be so confident.

This means Guan Xiaoxian also has a big move planned, but what could it be?

"Ah Fang, what do you think Guan Xiaoxian will do?"

Yu Zhengchuan asked.

Before Chen Fang could answer, Hua Limo said, "I think he's after Chen Fang's life."

Chen Fang waved his hand and replied, "No, although I've been investigating, there's actually no conclusive evidence against Guan Xiaoxian. He didn't dare take Director Pei's life because he doesn't want to escalate the situation."

"What on earth does he want to do?"

Chen Rulin asked.

Chen Fang pondered for a long time, then said, "Originally, it would have been enough if Pei Shanglian got injured, achieving the aim of a warning shot across the bow. But his police gun went missing, so, I believe that Guan Xiaoxian's next big move will be to support Zhang Jiangming in taking over. Before the police gun is found, he'll put Zhang Jiangming in charge of the Public Security Bureau. That way, no matter what we do, we'll be constrained."

This statement made everyone feel somewhat enlightened.

Of course, it was also filled with deep concern.

Analyzing the current situation,

Zhang Jiangming must be Guan Xiaoxian's man.

If the Public Security Bureau falls into his hands, these cases might indeed be doomed to sink into oblivion, never to resurface.

"It won't be easy for Zhang Jiangming to take over the Public Security Bureau temporarily. At the very least, he will need the approval of the standing committee. Secretary Chen, you were able to take down Xu Jianfeng, so you should be able to stop Zhang Jiangming, right?"

Chen Rulin asked.

Chen Fang shook his head.

He said, "The situation is different now. At that time, I had the support of Xue Bo, as well as Pei Shanglian. Now, Xue Bo has left, and Pei Shanglian is still in the hospital. That's why Guan Xiaoxian is so confident."

There's no need to mention Liu Mingkai; they were at odds to begin with.

The remaining three major factions' loyalists would naturally kick him when he's down at this crucial juncture. With only Chen Fang's current "power," stopping it is already impossible.

"Is there really no way at all?"

Yu Zhengchuan asked.

Hua Limo gritted his teeth and said, "If it doesn't work, I'll just lay them out for a few days. If they can play their tricks, why should we be afraid to respond in kind?"

"No, we can't cause any more complications."

Chen Fang interfered.

"This won't work, that won't work, are we just going to accept this complete defeat with our eyes open?"

Hua Limo said with some reluctance.

Chen Fang narrowed his eyes and said, "Since we can't move forward with this case, we will take a different route, killing two birds with one stone."

"Killing two birds with one stone? How so?"

The other three asked in unison.

...

Over five hours later.

Around eleven-thirty in the morning.

Inside room 401 on the fourth floor of the Fangyuan Hotel,

Tang Zhuqing, still full of charm, was lying naked on the bed.

A young woman, dressed like a technician,

Was massaging Tang Zhuqing's body.

She must have taken good care of herself.

Even at her age, her breasts were still firm, and the little creek between her legs remained tenderly flushed.

It was at this moment that the sound of knocking suddenly erupted.

Tang Zhuqing frowned.

The technician, being considerate, pulled over a bath towel and covered her body, shielding the essential parts.

Then,

She went to the door and opened it.

A man in a black suit hurried in.

"Madam, Miss Xue has been spotted."

Tang Zhuqing was startled,

And sat up abruptly.

The bath towel slid off, exposing most of her torso to view.

The man in the black suit quickly averted his eyes in fright.

"Where?"

Tang Zhuqing asked.
