Gao Xiaoqin trembled, and two lines of clear tears flowed down her cheeks.

After a long time.

She glanced at Zhao Xiaohui, then at Qi Tongwei, bit her lip, and said bitterly, "That's right, Director Qi asked me to accompany him... to sleep with him."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiaohui nodded in satisfaction, "The evidence is conclusive, Director Gou... arrest him!"

Arrest them?

Gou Yishen was dumbfounded.

He doesn't dare!

That's Liang Qunfeng, how can we take it? Should we take it with our heads?

At this moment, Liang Qunfeng exuded his full aura.

His brows exuded an imposing presence without anger.

"Secretary Liang, we've known each other for so many years, are you really going to turn against me for some young upstart?"

The mastermind has entered the scene.

The door next door was pushed open, and Zhao Lichun walked out with his hands behind his back and a serious expression.

Upon seeing Liang Qunfeng, he said without any politeness, "Secretary Liang, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to protect this kid?"

“Secretary Zhao, so you’ve been here all along.” Liang Qunfeng shielded Qi Tongwei behind him, straightened his back and said, “That’s right, I’m determined to protect Qi Tongwei. There’s no way I can bring him to the Luzhou Municipal Bureau.”

The sight of Liang Qunfeng reminded Qi Tongwei of an old friend.

Director Qi's father-in-law.

In his previous life, after kneeling on the playground, Director Qi became Liang Qunfeng's son-in-law.

To be fair, Director Qi's rapid rise to prominence is inseparable from Liang Qunfeng's care and promotion.

At that time, Liang Qunfeng truly didn't treat Director Qi as an outsider.

Director Qi was almost taken away by the Discipline Inspection Commission because of a carelessness once.

Liang Qunfeng became anxious at that moment.

Like an eagle, he shielded the fledgling Director Qi behind him and clashed with the disciplinary committee members, barely managing to save Director Qi.

Then and now, just as now and now.

Therefore, Qi Tongwei's attitude towards Liang Qunfeng has always been complex and confusing.

He hated Liang Qunfeng.

At the same time, we must also express our gratitude to Liang Qunfeng...

Chapter 144 Zhao Lichun, on the Verge of Collapse

Liang Qunfeng's attitude today shocked everyone present.

Zhao Lichun's beard bristled with anger.

After a long pause, he squinted and said in a deep voice, "Secretary Liang, it's still uncertain whether Qi Tongwei can get into the Zhong family. Are you sure you want to turn against me for his sake?"

"What do you mean by turning against someone? Secretary Zhao, I don't understand what you're saying. Besides, we're talking about Qi Tongwei right now, how did you get involved with the Zhong family?" Liang Qunfeng took his feigned madness to the extreme.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about the Zhong family then, let's talk about Qi Tongwei. The evidence of his soliciting prostitutes is irrefutable, shouldn't we hand him over to the Municipal Bureau for processing?"

"Ironclad evidence?" Liang Qunfeng laughed. "Secretary Zhao, everyone says you have to catch someone in the act of adultery. You have nothing to hide, so why are you making baseless accusations? Or... do you really think you can cover up everything in Luzhou?"

The conversation between the two vice-ministerial level officials was highly charged.

Everyone else held their breath.

Qi Tongwei never expected Lao Liang to be so tough; he was too tough, and he was a little unaccustomed to it.

The Zhao siblings, on the other hand, were mostly confused.

Why did Uncle Liang, with whom we usually have a good relationship, suddenly turn his back on me?

The one who suffered the most was Gou Yishen.

The Ministry of Public Security belongs to the political and legal system.

On one side is my direct supervisor, and on the other is my godfather. It's so difficult!

At that moment, he really wanted to find a dog hole to crawl into.

But Zhao Lichun didn't give him the chance to crawl through the dog hole.

"Director Gou, what are you standing there for? Arrest them!"

"Let's see who dares!" Liang Qunfeng glared at Gou Yishen and said sternly, "This is none of your business. Go back to the Municipal Bureau."

Gou Yishen felt like he was being sandwiched in between.

Standing there, looking like a fool.

The atmosphere grew increasingly tense.

After a few seconds of standoff, Liang Qunfeng took out his phone. "Secretary Zhao, if you don't back down, we'll ask Secretary Xiao what he has to say, how about that?"

Close to the face and open wide.

Liang Qunfeng's attempt to drag Xiao Hongyun into this is not only overturning the table but also ruining everything.

Zhao Lichun's eyebrows twitched slightly.

He sneered, "Secretary Liang, everyone says you're a cunning fox, and it seems they're absolutely right! What? Are you planning to completely sever ties with the Han University gang and start fighting alongside Xiao Hongyun?"

"What Han University clique?" Liang Qunfeng put on an innocent expression and then accused Zhao Lichun, "ZY has repeatedly emphasized that local governments cannot form cliques. Secretary Zhao, your ideological awareness is not high enough! In the future, you should listen to more political lectures when you have nothing to do."

"Very well, very well..." Unable to argue with Liang Qunfeng, Zhao Lichun turned his gaze to Qi Tongwei, "Kid, you plan ahead before you act, and you even have Secretary Liang protecting you, impressive!"

"This is Luzhou, I have to be careful."

Zhao Lichun nodded. "Very good, but I still want to remind you that Xiaohui's promise just now still stands. Go back and think about it, weigh the pros and cons, and then give me your answer."

"No need to think about it anymore, I know what I should do."

"No regrets?"

Qi Tongwei didn't say anything more, glanced at Liang Qunfeng, and the two left one after the other.

Staring at Qi Tongwei's retreating figure, Zhao Lichun clenched his fists and took deep breaths.

It took me a long time to recover.

Then he called Zhao Xiaohui and Zhao Ruilong into the private room and said, no longer calm, "ZY came prepared this time, and Qi Tongwei has no intention of backing down. Next... we need to prepare for the worst."

Zhao Ruilong was a little flustered. "Dad, it hasn't come to that yet. After all, we haven't given ourselves away, and Qi Tongwei hasn't found any evidence."

"That's why we have to prepare for the worst. By the time he finds the evidence, it will be too late."

"Dad, should we wait a little longer?"

“No need to wait any longer.” Zhao Lichun said somewhat unwillingly, “You all saw Liang Qunfeng’s attitude. He’s a cunning old fox. He wouldn’t have turned against us if he hadn’t sensed danger.”

"How about I call Spotted Tiger over?" Zhao Ruilong said, thinking himself clever. "Qi Tongwei is so arrogant, why don't we just take him out once and for all?"

Zhao Lichun turned his head and looked at his eldest son, saying with disappointment, "Ruilong, our opponent has never been Qi Tongwei, nor the procuratorate, but ZY! ZY sent Qi Tongwei here to find evidence. If something happens to him, our Luzhou will be going through a counter-terrorism operation... and the target of the counter-terrorism operation will be our Zhao family."

Inside the large private room, all three fell silent.

The rain is coming and the wind is all over the building.

The procuratorate came to Luzhou.

Liang Qunfeng suddenly turned hostile.

Everything suggests that Zhao Lichun, this towering tree, is already teetering on the brink of collapse.

……

the other side.

Liang Qunfeng's bus slowly drove to the shore of Crescent Lake.

The cool lake breeze dispelled the summer heat.

Liang Qunfeng sat on the stone bench in the pavilion, lit a mosquito coil, took out the packed food, and waved to Qi Tongwei.

Qi Tongwei was somewhat dazed.

"Secretary Liang..."

"I prefer you to call me Lao Liang."

"Old Liang, you really stepped up today, like a real man. ZY can feel your determination."

"It doesn't matter." Liang Qunfeng chuckled. "Tongwei, before coming to Luzhou today, I had a heart-to-heart talk with Secretary Xiao."

"Xiao Hongyun? What are you talking about?"

Liang Qunfeng did not rush to answer, but simply waved his hand, inviting Qi Tongwei to sit down first.

Then, he pushed the packed food over, saying, "I know you didn't eat well tonight, so I had the driver buy some food. Don't be shy. Oh, and there's also some wine."

As he spoke, Liang Qunfeng opened the trunk of the car and took out a bottle of Moutai and two small wine glasses.
