Just as Hou Liangping was feeling smug, the phone rang.

Hou Liangping picked it up and saw that it was a call from Lü Liang.

Hou Liangping glanced at the time and secretly calculated: Could Huang Feipeng have been arrested in such a short time?

I knew it! Without Qi Tongwei backing him up, Huang Feipeng is like a toothless tiger.

They were caught in no time.

Hou Liangping was secretly delighted. It seemed that he had just been unlucky the previous times. Otherwise, how could he have been tricked by a small businessman like Huang Feipeng?

Now that Huang Feipeng is in my hands, I'll make him taste the humiliation I suffered back then—no, I'll make him taste it twice as much.

Thinking of this, Hou Liangping chuckled, completely ignoring the stares from the other passengers who were looking at him like he was crazy, and also the ringing of his phone.

The anti-corruption bureau officials were extremely disgusted with Hou Liangping at this point. How could someone with such character be an official in the capital, let alone a section chief?

There must be someone backing them up; otherwise, with this kind of attitude, I might as well have taken the job myself.

Thinking of the recent news circulating in the Anti-Corruption Bureau that Hou Liangping was the son-in-law of the Zhong family, everyone exchanged glances and became even more certain of this.

The phone was still ringing, and Hou Liangping smiled, but didn't answer it.

A member of the anti-corruption bureau next to him cautiously nudged Hou Liangping.

"Director Hou, phone call."

Hou Liangping snapped out of his daze and subconsciously looked around; everyone else immediately looked away.

Hou Liangping breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness, no one saw him.

He didn't know what was wrong with him. Ever since the last incident, he had been immersing himself in his own world. It would be fine if it were anyone else, but now he was the director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau. If he acted like this in front of his acquaintances, it would be very disrespectful to a leader.

He breathed a sigh of relief, smiled at the person next to him, and then answered the phone.

"Hey Lao Lü, has Huang Feipeng been caught? I've calculated the time, it should be about right."

The anti-corruption bureau staff around them also pricked up their ears and listened quietly. If it really worked, then Hou Liangping could still be relied on.

But the next moment, Lü Liang's terrified voice came over.

"Something terrible has happened, Director Hou."

Hou Liangping remained unmoved. In his view, setbacks were normal, and if Huang Feipeng did not intervene, then there must be a conspiracy behind it.

A few setbacks now are a good thing.

As long as Huang Feipeng can be brought back alive, everything will be fine.

But if someone dies, that's a much bigger problem, and he won't be able to explain it afterward.

The anti-corruption bureau personnel around them also became serious. Had Hou Liangping's plan failed again?

Everyone listened quietly; the only sounds in the car were their breathing and Lü Liang's voice on the phone.

"The police have gone mad for some reason. They actually sent someone to ram our car. Now we're stuck here and can't move. Huang Feipeng has already escaped far away."

Upon hearing this, Hou Liangping's face turned serious. It seemed that Qi Tongwei had made preparations beforehand; otherwise, he wouldn't have kept the appointment.

This further proves that Qi Tongwei is the person behind Huang Feipeng, and that Huang Feipeng must have something that concerns Qi Tongwei's fate, otherwise Qi Tongwei would not have done such a thing.

It seems he made the right move. The other side has become desperate. Now, as long as Huang Feipeng is captured, the outcome will be decided.

He believed that those present at the scene must be Qi Tongwei's men, and it seemed that only Feng Xing from the Municipal Bureau could be there.

Thinking of this, Hou Liangping breathed a sigh of relief. Now that Qi Tongwei was under control in Wangbei Tower and cut off from the outside world, he could only do as he pleased.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that the person in Wangbei Tower was Zhao Ruilong, not Qi Tongwei; otherwise, it's hard to say whether he would have made such a comment.

Hou Liangping's expression turned serious.

"Old Lu, you take your men and break through their blockade right now."

"There's only a deputy director of the municipal bureau on site. You can't do anything about him? Think of a way to get out of there and head to the airport as soon as possible."

Upon hearing Hou Liangping's words, Lü Liang subconsciously glanced at the police surrounding them, then seemed to realize something and said in horror.

"Director Hou, it's not just that. I just discovered that Huang Feipeng is in a military vehicle. Should we suspend the operation?"

Upon hearing this, Hou Liangping clearly felt the car's speed gradually decrease, and everyone inside the car seemed to be looking at him subtly.

When Hou Liangping heard the news, he suddenly felt a strange sense of familiarity. The first time, he was taken away by the army.

The second time, he was even pointed at the head by soldiers.

Now they've even dragged in the military?

Could it be that Huang Feipeng has a military background?

Thinking of this, Hou Liangping also felt a sense of defeat.

However, Hou Liangping rallied in the next moment.

Huang Feipeng's backer is Qi Tongwei, who has no military background. Otherwise, he wouldn't have proposed to Liang Lu back then.

Therefore, the only possibility for Huang Feipeng to appear on the military vehicle is that it is related to Dafeng Factory.

Although we don't know what Dafeng Factory produces, it's a classified project, so maybe today we're just shipping things over there.

Huang Feipeng seized this opportunity to take advantage of the situation and go to the airport together.

Thinking of this, Hou Liangping's lips curled into a mocking smile.

No matter how cunning you are, you will still have to taste my foot bath water.

Upon careful reflection, I realized that my setbacks were all due to Huang Feipeng leveraging the power of the military.

It seems this person is very good at leveraging power.

In the past, he might have rushed forward directly, since the Zhong family was backing him up.

But now things are different. He has to look his best so that he can impress her and make her remember him.

Therefore, we must be extremely cautious this time.

Hou Liangping stroked his chin thoughtfully. The army's main objective was the contents of the vehicle; as for Huang Feipeng, he was just someone passing by.

As long as he makes it clear to the military that he is there to arrest Huang Feipeng, the military will definitely not stop him.

After all, their mission was to escort the goods, and Huang Feipeng, who was just along for the ride, was not their target.

Thinking of this, Hou Liangping breathed a sigh of relief and, under the watchful eyes of the people in the car, spoke confidently.

"Don't worry, Lao Lü. The military's main task is to escort the goods. As for Huang Feipeng, he's not important to them."

"As long as we explain it to them clearly at the time, they definitely won't interfere."

"So, you should leave there now and chase after that car. I'll take some men to the airport right away, and we'll meet up there and capture Huang Feipeng together."
