I asked you to pursue a career, but you turned out to be a scumbag

"Director Xing, happy birthday to you!"

As Zhang Hao spoke, he handed the gift in his hand to Xing Rong!

Xing Rong said angrily: "Director Zhang, you brought a gift here, aren't you making me, Old Xing, make a mistake?"

Zhang Hao smiled and said, "Director Xing, what you said is serious. This is just a small item worth a few hundred yuan. How can you call it a mistake? Moreover, all the leaders of our procuratorate are here. If you give it to them in front of them, how can you call it a mistake?"

"Xiao Xing, just accept it. It's just a small token of appreciation. Besides, this little bastard is so stingy. He has been in the procuratorate for such a long time, but he hasn't even given me a gift. How could he possibly give you a gift?" Shen Hongcai said from the side.

When everyone heard Shen Hongcai call Zhang Hao a little bastard, they did not think that Shen Hongcai was distancing himself from Zhang Hao or expressing dissatisfaction with Zhang Hao. On the contrary, he was showing closeness to Zhang Hao.

Yan Yi muttered to himself: What is favoritism? This is fucking favoritism.

In front of so many people from the procuratorate, you don't even avoid suspicion. If you provoke him, aren't you courting death?

Xu Zhongzhong said with a smile: "Xiao Zhang, did you hear that, Shen Jian, this is to express his dissatisfaction with you for not giving him a gift."

Zhang Hao immediately responded with a smile, "Yes, yes, it was my oversight. Prosecutor Shen, I'll prepare a gift when I get back. I guarantee it'll be more expensive than Director Xing's."

Shen Hongcai laughed and scolded, "Get out of my way! Are you trying to give me a gift? I think you little bastard are trying to get me in. Come over here and sit down."

Zhang Hao chuckled and walked over to sit next to Shen Hongcai.

When dining with your boss, your seating position is also very important.

Generally, the highest leader sits in the main seat, and then people sit next to the leaders according to their levels. Given Zhang Hao's level, he should sit in the position farthest from Shen Hongcai.

But now Zhang Hao is sitting on the left of Shen Hongcai, and next to him is Hong Ziyi, which shows Shen Hongcai's preference for Zhang Hao.

Everyone is here.

As the protagonist, Xing Rong must stand up and say a few words: "Thank you all leaders and colleagues for honoring me with a birthday party. Prosecutor Shen, please speak a few words."

Why are you unwilling to interact with people in the system and have dinner with leaders?

It’s because there are too many troubles during the meal. This leader says a few words, that leader says a few words, and by the time they finish talking, the food is cold.

However, Shen Hongcai had no interest in such things, so he said directly; "Alright, Xiao Xing, we are all insiders, so let's have a meal together to celebrate your birthday. There is no need to be so formal. Let's all raise a toast to Xiao Xing and wish him a happy birthday. That's it."

After everyone raised their glasses to wish Xing Rong a happy birthday, they started eating.

Hong Ziyi whispered to Zhang Hao: "Zhang Hao, what are you busy with recently?"

"Of course it's an important matter and needs to be kept secret!" Zhang Hao said mysteriously.

Upon hearing this, Hong Ziyi rolled her eyes at Zhang Hao and said, "Secret, what the hell? Don't forget that I'm your direct supervisor and have the right to know about the case you're investigating. So, as a deputy prosecutor, I'm asking you, what have you been doing all this time?"

Zhang Hao said with a smirk, "Do you really want to know?"

"Stop talking nonsense and speak quickly!" Hong Ziyi urged.

Zhang Hao laughed meanly and said, "Of course, I'm working hard to fulfill our bet!"

"Bet?"

Hong Ziyi recalled the two bets she had made with Zhang Hao and said unhappily, "Can you stop daydreaming?"

Zhang Hao said: "That's not a daydream. It shouldn't take long for it to come true. Are you ready?"

"Tsk, I've been prepared for a long time, I'm just afraid that you will brag too much." Hong Ziyi said unwillingly.

Just as Zhang Hao was about to continue speaking, Hong Ziyi said to him, "Prosecutor Liu is here."

Zhang Hao turned his head and saw Liu Zhengde walking towards him with a wine glass.

Liu Zhengde walked up to Zhang Hao with a glass of wine in his hand: "Zhang Hao."

Zhang Hao said calmly to Liu Zhengde, "Deputy Inspector Liu, what's going on?"

Liu Zhengde hesitated for a moment and said, "Zhang Hao, I was wrong about what happened that time. I promise that the same thing won't happen again. I'm sorry!"

Zhang Hao looked surprised. Liu Zhengde apologized to him. What was going on?

Is he sincere, or is he plotting some conspiracy?

Shen Hongcai said at the side: "Zhang Hao, Liu Zhengde can't be blamed for that incident. It can only be said that he has no choice in many situations within the system. Let it be in the past!"

Hearing this, Zhang Hao stood up and said, "Prosecutor Liu, I've long forgotten about that incident. Apologizing to me is like slapping me in the face, isn't it?"

Liu Zhengde said: "Zhang Hao, thank you, I did it."

Then he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Seeing that Liu Zhengde had drunk, Zhang Hao thought that if he didn't drink, it would mean that he had something on his mind, so he had no choice but to pick up the glass and drink it.

When Liu Zhengde saw that Zhang Hao had done it, he looked relieved.

To be honest, he went through a long psychological struggle before coming to apologize to Zhang Hao this time.

Although he felt that he was being unfair to Zhang Hao by doing that, he didn't take it to heart.

After all, I am about to retire. Even if Zhang Hao wants to take revenge on me, he probably doesn't have the ability or opportunity to do so.

But during this period of time he found that he was wrong, because Zhang Hao was really too evil.

He arrested Xiang Mingzhi's personal secretary Lu Xiaoxian in front of him, and then took away Xu Dong.

The most important thing is that he is only a deputy section chief now. In a few years, before he retires, he will probably be able to become a section chief or even a deputy director.

When the time comes and he remembers how I framed him and how he almost ruined his career in the system, and they retaliate against me, will I be able to bear it?

I guess it’s unlikely!

In this case, it is better to admit defeat in advance and resolve this grudge, so as to avoid being arrested and disgraced when you are about to land safely.

Hong Ziyi was unaware of the conflict between Liu Zhengde and Zhang Hao, so she asked curiously, "What's going on between you and Deputy Prosecutor Liu?"

Zhang Hao told the story of how Liu Zhengde framed him.

As a member of the system, Hong Ziyi was no stranger to this kind of thing. However, since this involved Zhang Hao, she was still a little angry and said, "I almost got you fired from your job, and you're done with just a drink and an apology? At least you should give me some benefits, right?"

Normally, if the frame-up fails and the hatred is to be resolved, the only way is to make concessions on interests, let Zhang Hao get promoted, or give him some other benefits.

Shen Hongcai said on the side: "Forget it, he doesn't have any great background. Now in the procuratorate, he basically doesn't care about anything and can't offer any benefits at all. He can just wait for a smooth retirement."

"Okay, I'm old now. I don't want to play with you anymore. I'm leaving now!"

After Shen Hongcai said a few words to Xing Rong, he stood up and left. After all, he knew that with him around, Xing Rong and others would probably not be able to let go.

At a dinner party, only when the leader leaves can others leave.

Now that Shen Hongcai had left, Liu Zhengde and Xu Zhongzhong had also left, only people of similar age were left in the room. Xing Rong suggested, "Everyone has almost finished eating. Should we move on to the next round?"
