You forced me to marry a prodigal son, you deserve to be enshrined in the imperial temple

Chapter 45: Responsibility alone is useless, you need to use your brain

Liu Xicheng was holding a briefcase and standing in front of Li Jingyi in a serious manner.

He spoke with authority, leaving no room for doubt.

When Li Jingyi saw him come in, he stretched out his long legs casually and pinched his earlobe with his fingers.

"Officer Liu, are you so careless in handling cases against private individuals? I want to interrogate me. Do you have any relevant legal documents?"

"When Director You came to have tea with me, he didn't even dare to say that he could represent the Anti-Private Smuggling Office. You are a small cadre who has just been assigned here, but you keep saying that you represent the entire Anti-Private Smuggling Office. Your tone is quite arrogant."

Faced with his contempt, Liu Xicheng clenched his fingers in anger.

He pinched a groove in the briefcase.

Knowing that Li Jingyi would not greet him, he pulled over the swivel chair, sat down directly, and showed his newly issued work ID.

"Then look carefully, am I a private person?"

"I didn't say you weren't, I said you weren't worthy of representing the anti-smuggling office. I heard that the organizer of the watch smuggling case was Song Jianjun, not you."

The last time he discovered Xu Xingzhu having dinner with that man, he asked someone to secretly investigate the man's situation.

The man's name was Song Jianjun. He and Liu Xicheng were both educated youth who went to the countryside. At that time, both of them were pursuing Xu Xingzhu.

But for some unknown reason, Xu Xingzhu finally chose Liu Xicheng and gave up Song Jianjun.

Liu Xicheng made an excuse: "Song Jianjun is processing documents at work. He asked me to come over first. There are some things that you need to clarify with us in person."

Li Jingyi flicked on his lighter and said coldly without even raising his head.

"Let Director You come and tell me that you are not qualified to interrogate me."

"It's meaningless when you say that." Liu Xicheng stood up suddenly.

He got so anxious that the briefcase on the chair fell to the ground.

Picking up the briefcase on the ground, his hands trembled slightly.

This scene fell into Li Jingyi's eyes.

Coward! He is using chicken feathers as a token of authority and looking at something that does not exist with a magnifying glass.

"Tell me the truth now about the whereabouts of those watches, who you bought them from, how many you bought, who you plan to sell them to, etc. If you tell me everything, I can ask for mercy for you in front of Director You because you are my brother-in-law."

"If the sentence is 3-10 years, you can get a lower sentence because you turned yourself in. But if you are stubborn and blinded by greed, then you will definitely be punished at the highest level. You have to think this through carefully."

Liu Xicheng deliberately straightened his chest and looked down at Li Jingyi.

He spoke these words neither humbly nor arrogantly, and even with authority.

The consequences of smuggling are quite serious. Merchants are profit-oriented, but he is also afraid of going to jail. He doesn't believe that these words have no impact on Li Jingyi.

Li Jingyi raised his head and looked at Liu Xicheng with a cold look.

He threw the lighter and it just rolled to the edge of the table and did not fall to the ground.

Liu Xicheng was very nervous inside, but he pretended to be calm on the surface. He absolutely could not give in.

"Then I'll wait. Wait for you to bring people over to handcuff me and send me to jail."

"you……"

Liu Xicheng was so angry at Li Jingyi's arrogant attitude that his heart ached.

"Okay, wait a minute. I don't believe I can't cure you. I've already given you a chance, but you didn't appreciate it. Let's wait and see."

The door slammed open and Liu Xicheng walked out like a defeated rooster.

As soon as he left, Li Jingyi picked up the phone on the desk and the call was connected.

……

come back to the office.

Liu Xicheng was called over by Director You. As soon as he stood still, he was scolded by Director You.

"Liu Xicheng, are you really stupid or are you just pretending to be stupid? You came to the door to question him on your first day here. Did you know that he was Li Jingyi, the son of the richest man in southern Beijing?"

Liu Xicheng lowered his head and responded stubbornly.

"So what if he is the son of the richest man? A gentleman who breaks the law is guilty of the same crime as a commoner. What's more, he is not a gentleman. He is a speculator. He made a fortune by smuggling and violated his conscience. How much loss did he cause to the country? Why should we give face to such a scum?"

"Then do you have any evidence? The law is based on evidence, not just because you don't like him that you can punish him. What evidence do you have to prove that Li Jingyi did it?"

Director You was so angry that smoke was coming out of his head and his face was red.

Seeing that Liu Xicheng couldn't answer, Director You was so angry that he wanted to ridicule him a few more times.

"I don't know who said you are very capable at work and have a strong sense of responsibility. You said that just having a sense of responsibility is useless. You don't use your brain when doing things. If you continue like this, you will go back to your government office!"

Damn Li Jingyi, he actually sued him, just wait and see.

Liu Xicheng's face looked extremely ugly, and his disgust towards Li Jingyi had reached its peak.

Even Director You was speaking for him. It seemed that the bastard Li Jingyi had already extended his capitalist claws into the internal affairs.

Liu Xicheng secretly vowed to eradicate the seeds of capitalism.

……

The annual mid-year entrepreneurs exchange meeting was held on the third floor of the district government.

Every year, Zhang Wanli is invited to give a speech at this grand conference.

This year she took a back seat and decided to let her daughter-in-law Xu Xingzhu attend and speak on her behalf.

"Mom, I can't do this. I have social anxiety. I can't represent you. You should go by yourself."

Xu Xingzhu panicked and stuttered.

Zhang Wanli smiled and said, "Little guy, there is no coward in my Li family. It's normal to be nervous the first time, but you will become calm after that. Besides, the director of the textile factory will be yours in the future, so you should practice your courage in advance."

There was really no way to refuse, so Xu Xingzhu had to do it.

Before coming here, she practiced at home for two days.

When he actually arrived at the meeting venue that could accommodate more than 200 people, Xu Xingzhu was not stage fright at all.

Following the host's introduction, she walked gracefully towards the podium amid thunderous applause from the audience.

"Such a young entrepreneur, the daughter-in-law of the Li family, how come she is so beautiful?"

"It's so amazing! She's only in her 20s, but she's representing Zhang Wanli?"

From time to time, quiet discussions could be heard in the audience.

Liu Xicheng sat on the side near the aisle, heard the cadres' discussion, and then looked at the shining person on the stage.

He had never seen her so radiant before. Today he saw her wearing a proper professional suit, a little makeup, and her hair tied up high.

She has both the innocence of a girl next door and the steadiness of a career woman.

It has become an existence that cannot be ignored by entrepreneurs and government officials.

There is nothing to be proud of. Once her husband goes to jail, she will become the target of public criticism instead of a shining representative of entrepreneurs.

Xu Xingzhu glanced down and met Liu Xicheng's gaze.
