"Hey, Doctor Li, are you going to work? It's a bit late today!"

Coming out of the main hall of the house, Li Xiangnan had just pushed his bicycle down from the veranda when He Dashuang next to him took the initiative to greet him.

"I drank too much yesterday!"

Li Xiangnan forced a smile and could only find a trivial excuse to prevaricate.

In fact, he had been looking at the files of the Shen family given to him by his father-in-law last night. There were too many details in it. What he didn't expect was that the Shen family was quite large and had many people. There were more than 300 people living in Yanjing.

Just among the children of the Yu generation, there are more than a dozen of Shen Wanshan’s children.

He read and took notes at the same time, his head was full of confusion and he had no idea what to do. When he woke up, it was already four o'clock in the morning. He hurriedly went to bed and only slept for more than three hours in total. It was really late.

"Please take care of yourself! Look, you have dark circles under your eyes!" He Dashuang reminded him with concern, and walked out of the yard with Li Xiangnan, carrying his shoulder bag and smiling.

While Li Xiangnan agreed to him, he was surprised at the tacit understanding between his old leader Song Yingxin and his father-in-law Qin Kunlun.

As the head of the Ministry of Public Security, my father-in-law naturally knew that the Shen Yujing poisoning case had been closed.

He had never communicated with me about this before, but he chose to hand over the Shen family files to me on the Dragon Boat Festival for the first time!

What does this mean?

This means that the father-in-law, like Song Yingxin, has his own judgment and thoughts on the Shen Yujing poisoning case, and they don't want this matter to just end like that!

We still have to investigate, but we have to do it secretly so as not to alert the enemy.

With these two heavyweights backing him up, Li Xiangnan no longer has any worries.

"Brother Nan! Have you eaten yet?"

A call woke Li Xiangnan up. He looked up and was a little surprised to find that he had unknowingly arrived at the door of Nianwei Hospital.

Xia Haiyang and Ge Dongxu were sitting in front of a wonton stall eating.

Li Xiangnan waved his hand: "Eat yours, I've already eaten and I'm in a hurry to go to work!"

Smiling, he pushed the car into the yard, locked it in the carport and went up the stairs.

I'm going to Chunyu Factory today to discuss the recent accounts with Ding Yuqiu in order to raise funds for the next cooperation with the pharmaceutical factory.

"Chief Xu!" After entering the hall, Li Xiangnan saw Xu Ping from the Finance Department standing at the cashier's counter and talking to the staff inside. He walked over.

"Dean!" Xu Ping greeted, and everyone in the cashier's office stood up and shouted.

Li Xiangnan waved in greeting, took the hospital bill from her hand, and asked, "Please inform Duan Sijiu to come to the hospital for a meeting this afternoon! By the way, how is the income report for this year..."

He was talking to Xu Ping here, and outside the yard, a shiny black "Crown" car slid silently to a stop under the shade of a tree, which was out of tune with the noisy flow of bicycles and the gray "Shanghai" cars around it.

The car door opened, and Ando bent down to get out of the car, his exquisite old Yanjing cloth shoes stepping on the hot concrete floor.

He was followed by his secretary, who was carrying two exquisite rosewood gift boxes, which formed a sharp contrast with the ordinary people carrying net bags and enamel basins at the hospital entrance.

An Youwan had gauze wrapped around his arm and stood by the car with his head drooped.

Ando's gaze passed over his son, and he led him to the hall with cold and quick steps. After a few steps, he locked his eyes with Li Xiangnan who had just come out of the hospital payment window.

"Dean Li!"

But Anduo's face instantly showed a warm smile. He walked forward quickly and extended his hand.

The smile was as perfect as if it was drawn with a protractor, but deep in his eyes there was a barely perceptible trace of anxiety and humiliation.

"My son is naive, thank you for your concern! It's just a small token of my appreciation, please accept it!" He gestured to his secretary to hand over the gift box. "Authentic South Sea blood swallows and century-old ginseng, for Dean Li to nourish his body."

Li Xiangnan, wearing his signature white shirt and black trousers, reached out to take several receipts handed over from the cashier window.

He didn't look at the gift box, nor did he shake the hand wearing the famous watch. He just glanced at Anduo lightly with a calm look, but it made Anduo's outstretched hand freeze in mid-air, and his smile almost disappeared.

"Boss An, you're too polite." Li Xiangnan's voice was low and metallic, "Doctor Lei said that your son's injury will be fine if he just rests. As for these things..."

His gaze finally landed on the rosewood box, and the corners of his mouth curved up slightly, almost mockingly. "It's too precious. I, Li Xiangnan, am a rough doctor and can't afford it. I'll keep it for Boss An to calm him down. After all, the An family has had a lot of trouble lately."

These words were like a poisoned needle, accurately piercing Andor's most painful point!

An Youjun was arrested, Plot 12 was a mess, and the whole city was in a panic... Li Xiangnan's light-hearted remark "there are a lot of things to do" was tantamount to exposing scars in public!

The corners of Anduo's eyes twitched, and he clenched his hands tightly behind his back, the jade ring hurting his palms.

He suppressed his anger, but his back involuntarily lowered three inches, and his voice was filled with deliberate humility:

"President Li, you're joking... you're joking... Youjun, that young and impetuous kid, made a mistake and deserves a lesson! Our An family is fully cooperating with the government! It's just... it's just that this plot of land, plot 12, is a huge investment for the An family and a key investment project for the city... and it's about to... oh well!"

He sighed heavily, his eyes fixed on Li Xiangnan. "I heard the city is interested in promoting a tripartite cooperation? Dean Li, you enjoy Mayor Hu's trust and are a technical authority. I wonder... I wonder if you could offer some guidance? The entire An family is deeply grateful! I will surely repay you handsomely in the future!"

It seems that the city has informed Anduo, and this old guy is here to test his attitude!

"I don't deserve your advice," Li Xiangnan interrupted him, his eyes suddenly sharp, like a scalpel cutting through An Duo's hypocritical politeness. "Boss An knows the root of the problem with Plot 12 better than anyone else. Things haven't been peaceful in Yanjing lately, and these 'puzzles' can't be solved by 'generous rewards'. What the city wants is solutions, responsibility, and a 'new atmosphere' that can stand the test!"

He deliberately emphasized the last three words.

Anduo's face turned pale instantly and cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

Li Xiangnan not only pointed out the core problem, but also pointed out the city’s extreme dissatisfaction with the An family’s “old atmosphere”!

He felt like he was stripped naked and thrown on the street. The halo of a returned overseas Chinese and successful entrepreneur shattered under Li Xiangnan's calm gaze.

"Dean Li... misunderstanding... it's all misunderstanding..." Anduo's voice was dry and tense, and he still wanted to quibble.

Li Xiangnan didn't give him another chance. He stuffed the document to An Youwan, who was standing there dumbfounded, and nodded to An Duo. His tone was calm but carried an undeniable sense of finality: "Since you can be discharged from the hospital, then go through the formalities as soon as possible! Also, Boss An, take care of yourself. The city wants people who can solve problems, not those who create them and then try to cover them up."

After saying this, without even looking at the priceless rosewood gift box, he turned and walked towards the stairs and joined the crowd.

Anduo stood there, feeling cold all over under the scorching sun.

He looked at Li Xiangnan's receding back, his eyes filled with resentment that almost dripped blood, and his teeth chattering.

This time in close combat, he was defeated miserably and his momentum was completely crushed.

He knew that the real tough battle was in the city government!

He must seize the last chance!
