The taste of irony was thick.
Chen Fang had thought that He Hong would be scared.
But to his surprise, there wasn't the slightest hint of it.
He let out a cold laugh, asking, "Executive Director Chen, oh Executive Director Chen, have you really become so muddled by a woman that you don't even realize the disaster looming over you?"
"Oh? Disaster looming? Well then, I'd like to see what kind of disaster you're talking about."
Chen Fang said relaxedly.
No sooner had his voice faded,
than a rush of footsteps sounded from behind.
Everyone turned around only to see a man in an administrative jacket striding in powerfully at the center.
By his side were quite a few others who all seemed very authoritative.
Even more lethal was the fully armed police who, upon entering the hall, quickly surrounded Chen Fang and his group.
No wonder He Hong was so confident.
He had long had a contingency plan in place.
"Are you Chen Fang?"
The man leading the way in the administrative jacket stepped into the center of the crowd and asked Chen Fang.
Chen Fang wasn't intimidated at all and nodded.
"Let me introduce myself first, I am..."
"No need, you are He Guanshan, the current Mayor of Rongjiang City."
He Guanshan had just begun to speak when Chen Fang cut him off.
Hearing this,
He Guanshan smiled.
He said, "It seems that Comrade Chen Fang has done his homework already. Since that's the case, I'll skip the pleasantries. We received a report that you're suspected of intentional harm and brawling in a group. We're here to take you into criminal custody. Please cooperate with our work."
After he finished speaking,
he gestured with his hand.
The police were about to move in on Chen Fang.
Unexpectedly, the people Chen Fang brought along suddenly stepped in front of him, blocking the path of the police.
"Comrade Chen Fang, what is this? Are you obstructing public duty?"
He Guanshan asked.
Faced with such a situation,
Chen Fang remained calm and composed, asking, "Mayor He, are you here to stand up for your nephew?"
"So what if I am? Chen Fang, I've told you before, crossing me will not end well for you. You think you're good at fighting, don't you? Come on, if you've got the guts, hit me now?"
With the arrival of He Guanshan,
He Hong naturally had his backing.
He walked right up to Chen Fang, tilting his head and tapping his cheek with his hand, a provocative look on his face.
With a slap,
Chen Fang, without a second thought, slapped him across the face.
The force behind the slap was fierce.
He Hong was sent flying, and had it not been for the people behind him, he probably would have already fallen to the ground.
"Chen Fang, you're out of line!"
Seeing that Chen Fang dared to hit someone even in his presence, He Guanshan was furious, puffing out his beard and glaring his eyes.
Chen Fang just shrugged his shoulders.
He said, "Mayor He, you heard him just now, he asked me to hit him. After all, he is your nephew, I still have to give face, otherwise it would be such a killjoy."
"Seize Chen Fang for me. If anyone tries to stop it, take them all away!"
He Guanshan didn't want to dally any longer.
He issued his strictest order.
Suddenly, Chen Fang's expression darkened as he asked He Guanshan, "Mayor He, are you sure you want to make a move on me?"
"How so? You've committed a crime on my turf, can't I take you down?"
He Guanshan asked with contempt.
Chen Fang nodded slightly and said, "Alright then, since all the main characters have made their appearance, this farce can finally come to an end."
He pulled out his phone.
Dialed a number.
And said, "Come in."
The phone had just been hung up.
The sound of police sirens wailing came from the doorway.
A line of cars entered the Cansen Group headquarters' parking lot one after another.
After the vehicles came to a stop,
all their doors swung open.
People in suits, along with those in police uniforms, rushed into the lobby.
Leading them was a man in an executive jacket.
He Hong took one look,
and his face instantly changed.
"Secretary Wu, what brings you here?"
He could no longer contain himself.
He Hong approached proactively, greeting with utmost respect.
The visitor was around fifty years old,
with sparse hair and an indifferent face—it was none other than Wu Lu, the Provincial Committee Member, Standing Committee member, and Secretary of the Disciplinary Committee from Yong'an Province.
He said to He Hong, "Comrade Guanshan, please come with us."
"Why?"
Realizing something was terribly wrong, He Hong asked in surprise.
Wu Lu let out a cold laugh and said, "Why? Embezzlement, bribery, abuse of power—you still ask me why? Stop the nonsense, take him away!"
With a wave of his hand,
several staff members from the Provincial Disciplinary Committee surrounded He Hong.
"No, Secretary Wu, I've been wronged, it's not true, I'm innocent..."
The previously arrogant He Hong suddenly began to complain bitterly, but Wu Lu gave him no chance to "plead his case," dismissing him with a disdainful gesture once again.
And so, within less than five minutes of his arrival, He Hong became the first casualty.
After He Hong was led away,
Wu Lu approached Chen Fang, and the two shook hands.
Wu Lu said in a low voice, "Comrade Chen Fang, the favor Xu Yan entrusted me with has been carried out. Please convey my regards."
"Thank you, Secretary Wu, I will certainly pass on the message."
"Alright, then I shall take my leave now."
Wu Lu had come in haste and left just as quickly, leading his team out.
This scene
left everyone present dumbfounded.
The officers from the Rongjiang City Public Security Bureau, seeing that He Hong had been taken away, didn't dare to stir up any more trouble and immediately ordered a retreat.
With this development,
the support that He Hong relied on was entirely severed by Chen Fang.
That shock was incomprehensible to both He Wuhui and He Hong.
"There, much quieter now. Next up, it's your turn,"
said Chen Fang, pointing his hand towards He Wuhui.
He Wuhui took a step back in fear,
but quickly regained his composure.
After all, he had seen his share of significant events.
Taking a deep breath, he said, "Chen Fang, I didn't expect you to be quite capable. But it's just knowing a few people in the bureaucracy. You're not qualified to touch me. I'll just stand right here; I want to see how you're going to come at me?"
"Seeing is believing,"
muttered Chen Fang, then, with a suave snap of his fingers,
two middle-aged men in suits appeared at the doorway, one after the other.
"Director Gao, what are you doing here?"
Surprised to see the middle-aged man, He Wuhui questioned.
Because the man who walked over was Gao Qi, Vice Chairman of the YaFei Group.
Gao Qi did not respond to He Wuhui's words.
He took a document from the person behind him and announced, "YaFei Group's Chairman He Wuhui, during his tenure, has caused irreversible and severe damage to the corporation. The board has decided to remove He Wuhui from his position as Chairman, effective immediately."
Then,
he proceeded to take another document.
He read, "After the board's consideration, Zhong Xiqian is hereby appointed as the new Chairman of the YaFei Group, effective immediately."
