Chen Fang had already been detained in the office of the engineering department.
And his clothes had been stripped off.
No matter how capable he was, it was impossible for him to cause any big commotion tonight.
Moreover, even if he escaped now, having just arrived in Xiaxiang City, what big impact could he possibly make with these photos?
Peng Guoliang was indeed somewhat arrogant.
After all, he had powerful backing.
In the Yunshang Palace's private room, the scene was one of unlimited indulgence.
Two men and four sexy, alluring women were engaged in an intimate, lust-filled scenario.
As Peng Guoliang was immersed in the embrace of two women,
the door to the private room suddenly swung open.
Liu Zhenping rushed in.
Because of the sudden arrival of an outsider,
Peng Guoliang immediately straightened up.
He quickly withdrew his hand from the inside of one woman's panties.
Of course, he wore a slight scowl on his face at such an unruly entrance.
Fan Chongfa, of course, understood him.
So when he saw Liu Zhenping, he immediately became angry as well.
About to reprimand him.
Liu Zhenping disregarded it and whispered into his ear, "Brother-in-law, Chen Fang and Li Weiyang have escaped."
"What did you say? Escaped? How did they escape?"
Fan Chongfa was also taken aback by this sudden news, exclaiming loudly.
He looked nervously at Peng Guoliang, eyes filled with a plea for help.
Peng Guoliang waved his hand, saying, "If they escaped, they escaped. It's no big deal, tomorrow I'll meet with them both, calm them down, it's late at night, you're afraid they'll release the photos?"
With Peng Guoliang's reassurance,
Fan Chongfa also breathed a sigh of relief.
He told Liu Zhenping, "Secretary Peng said it's fine, then it must be fine. Alright, you can go, and understand the rules next time you come in."
Liu Zhenping nodded.
Just about to turn and leave.
At that moment,
Peng Guoliang's phone rang abruptly.
It was already midnight at twelve o'clock.
Under such circumstances, normally no one would call him.
Peng Guoliang raised his phone to take a look.
The call was actually from his secretary, Xu Hong.
Realizing that something might have happened,
Peng Guoliang hurriedly answered the call.
"What's the matter?"
"Leader, sorry to disturb your sleep, but it's urgent, turn on the TV, tune to Xiaxiang City news channel, right now!"
Xu Hong said anxiously over the phone.
Peng Guoliang had no time to think more, asked a girl beside him, "Can this TV switch to the broadcast station?"
"Yes!"
The girl replied.
Peng Guoliang waved his hand, saying, "Xiaxiang City news channel."
The girl took the remote control and operated it for a while.
Soon.
The TV in the private room switched channels.
As the TV screen appeared, the nerves of the three content in the room were instantly taut, especially Fan Chongfa, whose heart leaped to his throat.
Because at this moment,
the news on TV was broadcasting images of substandard materials in Jufu Garden.
There were not only rusted, unrecognizable fitness equipment but also completely non-standard engineering materials, along with scenes of small groups of construction workers lazing around.
"It was found that Chongfa Construction used a large amount of non-standard building materials during construction; wastewater network and internal roads were refurbished with deceptive practices, passing off inferior goods as quality…"
As the images played,
the voice-over narrated these words.
Fan Chongfa's head exploded.
For a moment, he didn't know what to do.
Peng Guoliang was the same.
His good mood completely vanished.
Replaced, of course, by a headache.
He just thought Chen Fang couldn't get away.
In the end, he did escape.
Later, he believed even if Chen Fang escaped, it wouldn't have any significant impact.
Yet these images and photos had already made it onto Xiaxiang City TV's evening news.
There were still several communities where material replacement hadn't been completed.
If the residents didn't know, there would still be time to replace these materials, but now that residents who saw the news knew, the information would soon spread, and which community's residents would allow the construction team to cover up the evidence?
It can be anticipated that Chongfa Construction is about to face a storm of public relations crises.
If things go wrong, relevant departments might also intervene in the investigation.
Once it reaches this point, things can't be covered up anymore.
In the end, the transaction between him and Peng Guoliang would also be exposed.
"Damn it, Chen Fang, are you messing with us? I'm going to find someone to kill him!"
Liu Zhenping growled a line.
He was about to storm out angrily.
Stopped by Peng Guoliang.
He pondered for a moment.
He said, "Now I understand why Zhou Nongxin insisted on recommending Chen Fang to oversee this matter, once things reach this point, he will definitely seize the opportunity to take me down, who knows what kind of uproar will ascend from this, now there's only one solution to solve the problem."
"What solution?"
Fan Chongfa hurriedly asked.
Peng Guoliang looked at Liu Zhenping.
He said, "Someone must come forward to be the scapegoat, take all the responsibility, make it look like a personal action, Chongfa Construction convenes a news conference to publicly apologize, and show some sincerity…"
The so-called showing sincerity.
That, of course, is to rework the engineering previously done.
In the upcoming construction materials, naturally, they can't be diluted or inferior.
Fan Chongfa thought for a moment.
Said, "Guoliang, but if we do this, we'll have no profit?"
"Profit? You guys caused trouble, and you expect me to clean up after you? I've already said it, do as you see fit, a bunch of people who can't succeed but excel in failure."
After saying this,
Peng Guoliang got up and left.
Fan Chongfa knew.
Even if he caught up now, it wouldn't solve anything.
He stood up.
Stared at Liu Zhenping for a while.
Liu Zhenping felt uneasy under his gaze.
He asked, "Brother-in-law, you don't intend to make me the scapegoat, do you?"
"If not you, then who? Wasn't it in your custody that problems arose with Chen Fang and Li Weiyang?"
"But… but I treated them this way… they won't let me go, and I might end up in jail."
Fan Chongfa sneered.
He said, "You were the one who forced them to undress, ordered the house arrest, didn't I know about it before, plus the company is facing such a big crisis, if you don't stand up, then who will? Stay quiet, just go and confess, don't worry, I won't let you suffer."
"Brother-in-law…"
Fan Chongfa plaintively called out.
Unfortunately, Fan Chongfa did not want to waste words with him anymore.
Yelled, "Remember, when you confess to the police say this was all your doing, I didn't know, the company didn't know, I'll get the best lawyer for you, and you'll be in the detention center for at most a month, I'll find a way to get you out."
At this point,
Liu Zhenping found it hard to say anything.
Around two in the morning,
the two of them aligned their stories.
Afterwards,
he rode in Liu Zhenping's car, heading to the White Tower Street police station…
