Outside the door, Chen Hai led the anti-corruption bureau personnel in, looking menacing.

Just as Chen Qingquan was wondering what was going on, Chen Hai walked over with a stern face and held out a piece of paper to him.

"Chen Qingquan, I suppose I don't need to introduce myself. We now suspect you of a series of crimes, including embezzlement, corruption, misappropriation of G family resources for personal gain, etc. Please come with us."

Chen Qingquan glanced at the handcuffs on his hands, then at the policeman over there, as if he had just realized something, and subconsciously said something.

"You guys did a great job with the transition."

Meanwhile, Gao Xiaoqin, who was far away at Shanshui Manor, also received the news and immediately went to find Zhao Ruilong anxiously.

"Young Master Zhao, something terrible has happened! Chen Qingquan has been taken away by the Anti-Corruption Bureau."

Zhao Ruilong was furious upon hearing this. He was eagerly waiting for Gao Yuliang to come to his door, hoping that Chen Qingquan would be released, but he didn't expect that he had already been taken away by the anti-corruption bureau.

This is a huge problem.

Chen Qingquan is not good with his mouth and knows a lot of things. If he were to reveal a word or two that he shouldn't have, Zhao Ruilong might be able to get away with it.

However, the losses caused by this are countless.

Not to mention the land of Dafeng Factory, which is worth hundreds of millions.

Although he has nearly 10 billion in wealth, none of it can be dispensed with.

Thinking about his losses, Zhao Ruilong hated Qi Tongwei with a passion.

If this guy hadn't switched sides at the last minute, things wouldn't have come to this.

Zhao Ruilong cursed loudly.

"Damn Qi Tongwei, if he wants to die, he shouldn't be dragging us down with him."

Upon hearing the name of that heartless man, Gao Xiaoqin murmured softly.

"He won't get into any trouble; he's already a vice governor now."

Zhao Ruilong was taken aback. Yesterday it was just a rumor, but today it was settled.

He kicked over the chair next to him and angrily spun around in circles.

"Fine, fine, fine. They're using us as stepping stones. Well done, Qi Tongwei. Nobody's ever treated me like this before. Just wait, once this is all settled, I'll make him pay."

Gao Xiaoqin sighed softly as she listened to Zhao Ruilong's impotent rage.

She could understand Qi Tongwei's actions; after all, this was something he had always dreamed of.

But why abandon her?

Thinking of this, a young face appeared in Gao Xiaoqin's mind. It was all his fault. If it weren't for him, Qi Tongwei would never have severed ties with her.

Gao Xiaoqin hated Huang Feipeng to the core.

However, this was not the time to hate Huang Feipeng. Gao Yuliang was about to arrive, and Zhao Ruilong couldn't see him in his current state.

So Gao Xiaoqin quickly comforted her.

"Young Master Zhao, please calm down. Secretary Yuliang will be here soon. Once he arrives, you can have a few words with him, and he'll surely see how he manages to refuse to help."

Zhao Ruilong calmed down immediately.

“You’re right. Just wait and see. I want to see where Qi Tongwei can climb after leaving the Zhao family. The higher he climbs, the harder he’ll fall.”

Gao Xiaoqin nodded quickly, knowing she had to take good care of the person in front of her.

If she can persuade Gao Yuliang in a little while, that would be great; otherwise, her fate won't be good either.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Zhao Ruilong immediately jumped up and rushed to the door.

Gao Xiaoqin, who was behind him, carefully helped the chair up.

Zhao Ruilong opened the door, looked at Gao Yuliang outside, and quickly said with a smile.

"Secretary Yuliang, you've finally arrived."

"Please come in quickly."

"You see, in order not to break the rules, I specifically chose to eat at home."

"As for the food, I only ordered what you like. It's just simple food, so please don't mind. Come, sit here."

Gao Yuliang walked in with a gentle smile. Looking at the table full of dishes, he frowned slightly. These dishes looked expensive.

However, thinking of his purpose today, Gao Yuliang still sat down with a smile.

"Your simple meal is quite sumptuous."

Zhao Ruilong glanced at Gao Xiaoqin with a smile, then said casually.

"Isn't this because I was thinking of you coming? I had to be fully prepared, right?"

Gao Xiaoqin walked over from next door, carrying a bottle of red wine.

Zhao Ruilong accepted it with a smile.

"Secretary Yuliang, this is some good wine I got from out of town. They say red wine can improve blood circulation, right? Would you like some?"

Gao Yuliang frowned slightly as he looked at the bottle of wine in Zhao Ruilong's hand. Given his personality, he wouldn't drink on this occasion.

Needless to say, Zhao Ruilong clearly needed something from me.

If it's really as he thinks, then he'll drink it; but if not, then he'll have to think it over carefully.

After all, this wine doesn't taste good.

Thinking of this, Gao Yuliang waved his hand.

"Hey, no rush, let's eat first, let's eat first."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ruilong's smile faltered slightly, but he still handed the wine to Gao Xiaoqin.

Gao Yuliang lowered his head and ate a couple of bites of food, then suddenly said in a low voice.

You came to see me to talk about Chen Qingquan, right?

Zhao Ruilong was overjoyed upon hearing this. Now there was no need to beat around the bush, and he quickly said with a smile.

"Yes, that's exactly what I wanted to talk to you about."

“Secretary Yuliang, you see, Chen Qingquan only made a small mistake, the kind of mistake that every man makes.”

"Please tell the others to be lenient and let Chen Qingquan go."

Gao Yuliang put down his chopsticks and looked at him with great confusion.

"You know about Qi Tongwei's promotion to vice-provincial level, right?"

Zhao Ruilong's smile gradually faded. Why was this old man talking about Qi Tongwei out of the blue? What a spoilsport.

"heard."

Gao Yuliang stared into Zhao Ruilong's eyes, seemingly understanding something, and said calmly.

"Logically speaking, you should have approached Qi Tongwei about this. You two have always had a good relationship, haven't you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ruilong's face turned ashen, and he made no attempt to hide his reaction, letting out a cold snort.

"Good relationship? Yes, quite good relationship, but recently he's gone crazy and actually arrested Chen Qingchen."

“I’ve figured it out. Qi Tongwei is using us as stepping stones. Even if he wants to distance himself from me, he still wants to climb up the ladder.”

"Just you wait and see. Once this storm passes, I'll make him slink away with his tail between his legs."

"I wonder whose credit it was for him to climb to his current position back then."

“Secretary Yuliang, why don’t you go back and talk to Qi Tongwei? Can’t we have a proper talk? It’s only because of you that I don’t have such a big face for anyone else.”

“I can give him a chance. As long as he obediently releases Chen Qingquan and apologizes to me another day, we can still be family.”

"How about that? Have I done a good job as a junior?"
