The country entrusted me to buy an aircraft carrier, Hou Liangping, do you dare to investigate?

Upon hearing this, the members of the Anti-Corruption Bureau looked up in surprise.

They knew that Hou Liangping hated Huang Feipeng to the core, so why would he say something like that at this time?

No wonder, they can't learn this ability to be flexible and adaptable.

Thinking this, everyone looked at Hou Liangping with a hint of disdain.

Upon hearing this, Huang Feipeng's eyes revealed a knowing look. Hou Liangping's attitude must mean he had been humiliated by Ji Changming.

He just sent Sha Ruijin a text message, explaining what had happened.

He must have called Ji Changming.

However, Huang Feipeng never expected that his father had been paying attention to what was happening here all along, and that the news had already reached the other side.

Of course, he was unaware that his father, uncle, and the generals had called and scolded Ji Changming.

If he found out, he could only smile wryly, since everyone knew that Huang Feipeng was always a low-key person, and making such a big commotion was not what he wanted.

As for Hou Liangping, it's normal for him to change his attitude now that he no longer has Ji Changming's support.

If Hou Liangping didn't have this ability to be flexible and adaptable, would he have been able to marry Zhong Xiaoai?

Huang Feipeng's gaze deeply stung Hou Liangping.

Hou Liangping's face twitched slightly, then he looked calmly at Huang Feipeng.

“I can go to Wangbei Tower with you, but you have to release all these people.”

The anti-corruption bureau staff were astonished to hear Hou Liangping's words and looked at him with gratitude.

Huang Feipeng looked enlightened. Sure enough, Hou Liangping was quite capable to have climbed to this position at such a young age, besides the Zhong family's help.

To think you can win people's hearts in such a critical moment, well, now that I'm here, do you think your little tricks will work?

Huang Feipeng smiled and shook his head.

"Director Hou, you're not right about that. When did I ever stop them from leaving?"

"Are you misunderstanding something? I am a law-abiding citizen, and the men behind me are all soldiers. How could they detain someone without cause?"

"Not to mention they are all government employees. I don't have that kind of guts or that kind of power."

"They can leave if they want, but I must remind you all that today's events are quite significant. You should go back and think carefully about how to report to your superiors."

Hearing Huang Feipeng's words, the members of the Anti-Corruption Bureau breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, their gazes toward Hou Liangping changed.

Look at them, and look at you! You actually let Qi Tongwei be detained. This is going to cause a huge mess later.

Also, if you hadn't led us to force our way through, would we have been so reckless?

At this moment, everyone began to compare the past with the present. In the past, Chen Hai would never have dared to do this kind of thing with them.

Compared to Chen Hai, Chen Hai is better.

Hou Liangping's face turned pale and then red. He knew that Huang Feipeng had seen through his little trick, but it didn't matter.

My base of operations is in the capital city. As long as I can make a name for myself here, I'll go back there sooner or later.

Therefore, whether or not you can win people's hearts is not important.

However, he still had to do some superficial work, so he breathed a sigh of relief and slowly revealed a smile.

"I didn't realize you had any sense of propriety."

"Huang Feipeng, you want me to go to Wangbei Tower so badly because you want me to release Qi Tongwei, right?"

"Aren't you afraid that after we go to Wangbei Tower, I'll bring my men and arrest you too?"

"You should know that when that happens, you won't have anyone to protect you."

As he spoke, Hou Liangping looked at the group of people over there.

When the anti-corruption bureau staff heard Hou Liangping's words, they almost jumped up. "Brother, we're still being held at gunpoint. Even though we're no longer in mortal danger, we can't be this arrogant, can we?"

There's nothing we can't do secretly.

Chen Dong kept giving Hou Liangping meaningful glances, but Hou Liangping wouldn't look in his direction.

Huang Feipeng chuckled, glanced at the anti-corruption bureau staff, and said calmly.

"Since that's what you think, there's nothing I can do about it."

"But I still have to tell you something: maybe after this meal, your attitude towards me will be different."

"At that time, you might even be chasing after me, begging me to be your friend."

Hou Liangping's lips twitched slightly upon hearing this. Who gave you this confidence?

What is my identity, Hou Liangping, and what is your identity, Huang Feipeng?

You still expect me to beg you to be friends?

Are you dreaming?

Seeing that Hou Liangping was about to say something, Chen Dong couldn't hold back any longer. He quickly stepped forward, grabbed Hou Liangping, and whispered something.

"Director, you should say less. The only solution now is to go with him. We'll follow behind you and subdue him, won't that solve the problem?"

"Too much talk leads to mistakes, Director."

Hou Liangping glanced at him upon hearing this. Does Hou Liangping need you to teach him how to do things?

He's the director of the anti-corruption bureau. If he just went with Huang Feipeng like that, wouldn't he lose face?

Now that Chen Dong has offered a way out, Hou Liangping naturally follows suit.

So, he looked troubled, then glanced at the expectant eyes of the people behind him, and sighed again.

"Alright, since you put it that way, I'll go. Just be careful when we move out. Make sure the soldiers have all left before we start."

Chen Dong and the others from the Anti-Corruption Bureau breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Hou Liangping didn't say anything else, otherwise they might not have been able to return safely this time.

Upon hearing Hou Liangping's words, everyone nodded in unison, but in their hearts they were thinking, "Let's get in the car quickly; we don't want to be held at gunpoint—that feels awful."

When Hou Liangping saw this, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he turned to look at Huang Feipeng, who had a smile on his face.

"Alright, since you've extended such a warm invitation, it wouldn't be right for me not to give you face."

"But you shouldn't even think about becoming friends. I, Hou Liangping, am not worthy of associating with someone like you who breaks the law and violates the rules."

"I'm a very clean person, and I can't stand any dirt on these clothes."

"So, you should stop with your little schemes; they won't work on me."

Huang Feipeng's lips twitched when he heard this. Good heavens, even at this point, he's still being stubborn. When we get to Wangbei Tower, I'll see what kind of expression he has.

Huang Feipeng chuckled, shook his head, and got into the car.

"Alright, since Director Hou is willing to give us face, let's get in the car."

Hou Liangping glanced back at everyone, then pulled on the car door, but it didn't budge. He instinctively looked at Huang Feipeng.

Huang Feipeng scoffed.

"Who are you to sit in the back?"
