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

Gao Xiaoqin blushed, but a sense of panic welled up inside her. At this moment, Qi Tongwei's eyes were so gentle, yet so unfamiliar.

Gao Xiaoqin reached out and pressed Qi Tongwei's hand, and whispered.

"I'm waiting for an explanation from you. You actually called me. I feel terrible."

Qi Tongwei reached out and patted her shoulder.

"Alright, I'll give you an explanation. I have to get back to work now."

With that, Qi Tongwei darted past Gao Xiaoqin and hurried away.

As Gao Xiaoqin watched his retreating figure, a strange feeling arose in her heart; Qi Tongwei seemed to have changed.

Qi Tongwei left the place, his eyes resolute as he took out his phone and dialed a number.

"Bring a few men to Shanshui Manor and arrest Chen Qingquan."

"What reason? Is it okay to solicit prostitutes? Don't ask so many questions."

After making the call, Qi Tongwei stood there, looking at the sky not far away. After tonight, things would be different, and it was time to make a clean break.

Time passed little by little.

Cheng Du, the director of the Guangming District Branch of the Jingzhou Public Security Bureau, was very puzzled. As far as he knew, Chen Qingquan and Qi Tongwei were sworn brothers, so why would he ask him to arrest him?

However, Du Cheng only thought about it and didn't ask. After all, he was just following orders, and Qi Tongwei would bear the consequences.

They called over a few people, drove a police car, and arrived at Shanshui Manor in a menacing manner.

Then, with practiced ease, they arrived at the place where Chen Qingquan was.

Following Qi Tongwei's instructions, Cheng Du found the room and looked around at the people.

Then he kicked open the door, and what came into view was Chen Qingquan and a foreign teacher naked in bed, being all lovey-dovey.

The two looked at the people outside in shock, clearly not expecting anyone to come at this time.

But when they saw the clothes these people were wearing, they were taken aback.

Chen Qingquan quickly covered his face.

"What are you doing? You're violating my privacy."

"I'm going to sue you."

Cheng Du glanced at Chen Qingquan, who was covering his face, and said calmly.

"Chen Qingquan, right? You are suspected of soliciting prostitution. Take him away."

Chen Qingquan was pulled out of bed by several people and hurriedly said.

"Is there some misunderstanding? Your Director Qi and I are sworn brothers. You wouldn't treat me like this, would you?"

Cheng Du stared at him coldly without replying.

When Gao Xiaoqin learned of this news, she was also stunned. When she arrived, all she saw was the police car driving away.

Gao Xiaoqin anxiously picked up the phone and called Qi Tongwei.

"Brother Qi, something terrible has happened! Chen Qingquan has been arrested."

Qi Tongwei's calm voice came over.

"I ordered them to be arrested."

Qi Tongwei's words were brief, but they contained a lot of meaning. Gao Xiaoqin froze on the spot for a moment, and then exclaimed in surprise.

"What? You ordered his arrest? Why? What did he do that made you uncomfortable? We can talk this out. Chen Qingquan is very important to us right now..."

Gao Xiaoqin's first reaction upon hearing Qi Tongwei's words was shock, followed by relief. After all, they were in cahoots, and since Qi Tongwei had arrested Chen Qingquan, he would surely release him.

It's just a matter of how long it will take.

Qi Tongwei said calmly.

"Xiaoqin, come to me, let's have a good talk."

Gao Xiaoqin was taken aback when she heard this, and then, listening to the busy tone on the other end of the phone, she felt that something was wrong.

Thinking of this, Gao Xiaoqin didn't dare to delay and hurriedly went to the two's room.

Inside the room, Qi Tongwei held a cigar, his entire body shrouded in smoke.

Gao Xiaoqin's heart skipped a beat, then she smiled and walked over.

"What happened? What's wrong?"

"I should be the one who's angry, but you're in this state, and you need someone to comfort you, sigh..."

As she spoke, Gao Xiaoqin took the cigar from Qi Tongwei's hand, gently placed it aside, and spoke softly.

"You shouldn't smoke whenever you're upset; it's bad for your health. You can talk to me about anything that's wrong."

"Also, Chen Qingquan should be released as soon as possible. Just to scare him a little, otherwise things could get really bad."

Qi Tongwei looked at her indifferently.

"We won't let him go; we've arrested him."

Gao Xiaoqin paused in her actions, then looked at Qi Tongwei in surprise.

"Why? Can't we talk things out properly? You know how important he is to us. That's hundreds of millions, no small amount."

Qi Tongwei snorted coldly and said softly.

"I have a lot of money, but I'm alive to make it, but not alive to spend it."

Qi Tongwei shook his head, no longer thinking about these questions, and then said calmly.

"Xiaoqin, can you give me my shares in Shanshui Manor?"

Gao Xiaoqin froze on the spot, staring blankly at Qi Tongwei. After a long while, when she saw the resolute look in his eyes, she knew that there was no room for maneuver.

However, she still wanted to know why, because this mountain and water manor was the result of his and her hard work, how could he just withdraw his shares like that?

"Why? You've withdrawn your shares in Shanshui Manor? What are you thinking? Are you going to sever all ties with me?"

Qi Tongwei ignored Gao Xiaoqin's resentful gaze and said calmly.

"Xiaoqin, we've known each other for over ten years now, and we've been through thick and thin together. You know what kind of person I am."

"I am sincere towards you, but alas, a storm is brewing, and I have no choice but to do this."

Upon hearing this, Gao Xiaoqin frowned deeply and then grabbed Qi Tongwei's arm.

"Look me in the eyes. Is that really what you think?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Tongwei looked up and gazed into Gao Xiaoqin's eyes.

He had seen those eyes many times before, but never so movingly. Yet none of this could stop him from moving forward.

Qi Tongwei had endured so much suffering and humiliation to achieve his current success, but now a woman was blocking his path forward.

"Yes, that's what I think. You know how much I've suffered along the way, I can't give up halfway."

Seeing the change in Qi Tongwei's eyes, Gao Xiaoqin also shed tears. Then, as if she had thought of something, she quickly asked.

"Is it him? He's the one who persuaded you, right? Who is he? How could you believe his nonsense? Handong has always been the Zhao family's territory. Can you trust what a mere kid like him says?"

"Brother Qi, wake up! Don't believe his rumors, okay?"

Qi Tongwei listened to Gao Xiaoqin's words without any change in expression, and simply pushed her hand away gently.

"These are all my decisions, and I will accept them whether they succeed or fail."
