Officialdom: The beautiful leader took me to the top

Li Ying slowly turned around, the sharpness in her eyes gradually fading. "Don't rush. Tang Shi only came here today to warn me. She may not really dare to do anything to me."

"No matter what, I am her aunt, her father's ex-wife, and have countless connections with the Song family."

"Even if I don't care about the monk, I might as well respect the Buddha. She might not dare to push me to the brink!"

"If she really dares to push me to the brink, I'm willing to drag Song Chenfeng down with me!"

"At this crucial moment when her father was being transferred, she certainly wouldn't dare to do that!"

"A woman who can become the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau of Handong Province is definitely not that short-sighted!"

"So, she's just bluffing today, trying to scare me and buy Li Dong a chance to survive."

"And today, I played along with her conversation because I wanted to know just how many cards this Tang Shi had up his sleeve and how many secrets he held about me."

"I must say, Tang Shi really gave me a lot of surprises today, and he has indeed done a lot of work."

"If Tang Shi could find out about these shortcomings she had discovered, others might be able to as well."

"Ah Xiong, I've already sorted out these oversights. Over the next few days, you need to fix all of them. There absolutely cannot be any more mistakes!"

After saying this, Li Ying pointed to the table.

Chu Xiong walked to the table, picked up the A4 paper on it, and wrote a few lines of neat small characters on it with a fountain pen.

Each item listed above is empirical evidence found in Tang poetry.

With each line Chu Xiong finished reading, his face grew increasingly gloomy!

Upon seeing the end, even he couldn't help but gasp. "I'm sorry, big sister. I didn't do things well and made so many mistakes. Tang Shi even got hold of me."

"If I had been more meticulous in my work, my older sister wouldn't have been in such a passive position today."

"Please rest assured, elder sister, I will take care of these matters immediately and will absolutely not involve you."

Li Ying waved her hand, "Axiong, there's no need to blame yourself. This isn't your fault."

"I'm already very pleased that you, all by yourself, have managed to oversee such a large corporation and achieve this level of success."

"In fact, Tang Shi's visit today may not be a bad thing."

"At the very least, Tang Shi has given us a wake-up call: the Jianghe Group may not be a monolithic entity..."

Upon hearing this, a ruthless glint flashed in Chu Xiong's eyes. "Big sister, are you saying there's a traitor within the group?"

Li Ying countered, "Otherwise what?"

"How could Tang Shi, an outsider, know such confidential information better than I do?"

"Even if there is no traitor, something must have gone wrong somewhere."

"Try to find out exactly which channel the information was leaked from."

"I was lucky this time; it was Tang Shi who came, and he didn't try to kill me."

"Next time, we might not be so lucky!"

Chu Xiong immediately nodded, "Don't worry, big sister, I'll take action tonight, and by tomorrow at the latest, I'll give you a result and an explanation."

Li Ying didn't say anything more.

Although Chu Xiong is his subordinate on the surface, the two have actually become like siblings over the years.

Leaving aside the bond Chu Xiong formed with his father back then, just consider how Chu Xiong has served him faithfully over the years.

Even if something really went wrong, the eldest sister couldn't bear to scold her.

The reason I pointed these out earlier was to make it clear to Chu Xiong what the problem was.

He believed that with Chu Xiong's intelligence, as long as he gave him a little guidance, he would definitely be able to discover the oversight immediately and plug it in time.

In this way, even if Tang Shi launches another attack, he will have a way to deal with it.

Chu Xiong asked, "Then how should we handle the matter concerning the Li family?"

Li Ying sneered, "What else can we do? There's no turning back now that the arrow has been released. Since we've already taken the first step, we have to take the second!"

"If Tang Shi comes to make a scene today and I back down, or even bow down and admit my mistake to the Li family, how am I supposed to discipline Song Ci in the future?"

"If we're going to fight, we have to make sure it hurts!"

"This principle applies to both how we conduct ourselves and how we do our work!"

Chu Xiong understood. "Big sister, do you mean... you're planning to add fuel to the fire?"

Li Ying narrowed her eyes, a ruthless glint in her eyes. "We'll add more, not just more, but we'll add a huge fire!"

"I disliked Li Dong from the very beginning."

"If he had come to me in person today, I might have thought more highly of him."

"Hiding behind the scenes and letting Tang Shi, the eldest sister, stand up for him while he watches the show from the back, what kind of person is he?"

“My father was so angry with me that he was hospitalized, but he still hides in the back like a turtle.”

"How can I entrust my daughter to a man like that?"

Chu Xiong didn't respond. Actually, what his elder sister said was somewhat biased.

If it were anyone else, Li Dong certainly wouldn't have been so polite.

However, given Li Ying's identity as Song Ci's biological mother, what could Li Dong do?

Are they really going to cause a huge scene?

As a police officer, Li Dong would certainly not do anything that knowingly breaks the law.

It is probably precisely because of this identity that Li Dong felt somewhat constrained.

To put it bluntly, Li Dong wasn't afraid, but rather he didn't want Song Ci to be caught in the middle and put in a difficult position; he was considering Song Ci's feelings.

The eldest sister may not like this about Li Dong, but Chu Xiong greatly admires Li Dong's benevolence, filial piety, and sense of responsibility.

A man who would stop at nothing to achieve his goal is certainly not a good match, and would never catch Song Ci's eye.

To put it bluntly, Li Dong and his older sister are ultimately not the same type of person, so it's impossible for his older sister to be interested in Li Dong.

From his perspective, Li Dong's actions were understandable, but he couldn't persuade his older sister.

The eldest sister's personality is too stubborn, and at times like this, no matter who tries to persuade her, it will only backfire.

As for what the eldest sister wants to do?

Although Chu Xiong didn't ask, he had already sensed something.

If I'm not mistaken, the eldest sister probably wants to reveal Niannian's identity to the public.

Only in this way can the fire burn even more fiercely!

With everything arranged, Li Ying waved her hand and said wearily, "A Xiong, that's enough for today. You don't need to worry about the rest."

"I'm a little tired, you can go down now."

Chu Xiong nodded and slowly left the room.

After the door closed, Li Ying dialed another phone number.

Currently, she only has two people she can trust.

One was Chu Xiong, a former top figure in the officialdom of Handong.

The other one is Zhong Hui, the eldest daughter of the Zhong family in Handong.

These two people each have their own strengths and weaknesses, and their roles are not the same.

Chu Xiong has a wide network of connections and is very thoughtful; he can handle all sorts of troubles for him.

Especially for troublesome matters that can't be brought to light, Chu Xiong is more suitable, which is why Li Ying has always kept Chu Xiong by her side.

As for Zhong Hui, she used the Zhong family's identity as a cover and had been helping her with business matters.

For example, recently, Zhong Hui has been staying in the provincial capital to do something very important for her.

Things are progressing fairly smoothly in Tianzhou, but I wonder how things are going in the provincial capital!
