Chapter 394 The Feud Grows Deeper and Deeper
"Yes, Secretary Xu."
Liang Qunfeng, the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, was smoking in his office with a serious expression. Meng Hongbing had just called to say that Xu Dingbang had inquired about Qi Tongwei's matter. Fortunately, he hadn't acted impulsively and directly blocked the exits from Jingzhou.
"Xiao Gao, Qi Tongwei is your student. Tell me about that kid."
Gao Yuliang was a little nervous. As a newcomer to officialdom, he was not as calm and composed as he would be in later generations, so he could only tell the truth.
"Secretary Liang, Qi Tongwei came from a rural area and studied very diligently. He was always very steady, but later his personality underwent a huge change."
"It seems he was dating Chen Yang, the daughter of Mr. Chen, when they were in school. Later, Chen Yang was assigned to Kyoto, and the two were thousands of miles apart, so their relationship ended. It was probably because young people can't handle the blow of a broken heart."
Gao Yuliang was recommended by his daughter. The university professor was indeed a talented person, and Liang Qunfeng trusted him a lot.
"You mean that kid gave up all hope and then got incredibly lucky?"
Gao Yuliang really thought so, otherwise Qi Tongwei's change would be completely inexplicable.
When you're willing to risk everything, your fate might take a completely different turn.
"Secretary Liang, perhaps it's like that. That kid came back and had a meal with me, and he spoke with an incredibly arrogant tone. I was quite shocked."
Gao Yuliang did not hide his relationship with Qi Tongwei, which pleased Liang Qunfeng, since no one wants to have an ingrate by their side.
"Xiao Gao, you've heard about the feud between my daughter and that guy, right? What's your opinion?"
Gao Yuliang's palms were sweating. If he said the wrong thing, his political future might end prematurely. He didn't love money when he entered officialdom, but he craved the satisfaction that power brought.
"Secretary Liang, I believe that matters of the heart are difficult to force. Teacher Liang is gentle, knowledgeable, and cultured, and is worthy of any talented young man. To be honest, that kid's foul language makes him completely unworthy of Teacher Liang."
Qi Tongwei exclaimed, "Teacher Gao, don't you feel bad saying that? I am your best student, not the ungrateful Hou Liangping."
Liang Qunfeng was not surprised by this answer; what subordinate doesn't flatter their leader?
"Xiao Gao, at that kid's current promotion speed, you might not be able to get promoted as fast as him. Will you be convinced in the future?"
If his students were to become his leaders in the future, Gao Yuliang would find it hard to accept. However, he has the integrity of an intellectual and can still congratulate his students. After all, the younger generation surpasses the older, and a teacher should have that kind of vision and cultivation.
"Secretary Liang, I'm certainly not convinced, but I will definitely stick to my job and live up to the trust of the people and you."
Liang Qunfeng was generally satisfied with Gao Yuliang's probing. After all, no one can remain unchanged, but he admired Gao Yuliang's intellectual integrity. Such a person would not easily betray his leader.
"Xiao Gao, that kid Qi Tongwei is really bold. In order to force the ruthless bandit Gao Jun to confess, he directly threatened Gao Jun's son's life. I asked the provincial department to arrest that kid and bring him back to cooperate with the investigation, but that kid just ran away. He's really audacious."
Gao Yuliang was so frightened by these words that his body went limp. Logically speaking, how could Qi Tongwei, who had solved such a big case, be investigated for a ruthless bandit who killed without blinking an eye? It seems that Secretary Liang couldn't swallow this grievance for the sake of his daughter and nephew.
"Xiao Gao, don't overthink it. Your relationship with that kid won't affect my trust in you."
Gao Yuliang felt a sense of helplessness, caught between his mentor in his official career and one of his favorite students. If he had to choose, he would still care more about his future.
"Thank you, Secretary Liang. I will certainly not let you down."
Qi Tongwei arrived in Shanghai and didn't rest for a moment. He happened to catch the next flight to eastern Guangdong.
The roar faded away, and Qi Tongwei temporarily put aside everything in Handong. He believed that once his army was strong and well-equipped, a great scholar would speak up for him.
Stepping out of Tianhe Airport, Qi Tongwei looked up at the sky and opened his arms wide, thinking, "Eastern Guangdong, I'm back again."
As the sun set, its afterglow shone on his face, a sight that was so pleasing to the eye. He believed that justice would surely triumph over evil.
Lan Ying felt a sense of relief, as if he had survived a close call. Following Qi Tongwei was truly fraught with danger. The head of the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Bureau protected him, while the head of the Handong Provincial Public Security Bureau arrested him. Only he dared to live such a life of dancing on the edge of a knife.
Wu Dali was a little confused; what was so interesting about the sun in eastern Guangdong?
"Go, go."
Qi Tongwei had only taken a few steps when he kicked a newspaper. He quickly picked it up and saw that reporter Li Hanbing had published an article about environmental protection in the Tianhe Metropolitan Daily. The article stated that illegal sewage discharge from a chemical plant had caused a large number of fish raised by villagers downstream to die, and the article was accompanied by photos of a large number of dead fish floating belly up in the fishpond.
Lan Ying asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Qi Zhi?"
Qi Tongwei handed the newspaper to Lan Ying, "Tomorrow, look up this report about the chemical plant's illegal discharge of pollutants. It would be best to meet with the reporter, Li Hanbing."
Lan Ying took the newspaper and glanced at it. This was the work of the Environmental Protection Bureau. Although she didn't understand, since the leader had given instructions, she would do it first.
"Yes, Qizhi."
Back at the Tianhe Hotel, Qi Tongwei took a shower and immediately called He Aijun. After all, if He Aijun hadn't tipped him off, he might have been kept awake by Fang Yonghui again today, instead of enjoying a good night's sleep on his Simmons mattress.
"Director He, I've arrived in eastern Guangdong. I just finished showering and was about to go out for a big meal to treat myself."
He Aijun was both loving and hating him. The kid had actually gotten away, but he was also relieved. This was Liang Qunfeng deliberately causing trouble, but as a subordinate, he didn't dare to act recklessly.
"Then you stay put in eastern Guangdong, kid. Don't worry about your parents' safety."
What Qi Tongwei wanted was just this one sentence: "Thank you, Director He."
The next day at work, Qi Tongwei was summoned to Ye Xingguo's office.
He explained the case of Gao Jun's criminal gang to Ye Xingguo in detail.
"Director Ye, according to the confession of the notorious bandit Gao Jun, he did not commit the murder of police captain Lan Weiguo seven years ago. This means that the real murderer of Lan Weiguo is someone else. Should we reopen the case and investigate?"
Ye Xingguo had always suspected that there was something fishy about Lan Weiguo's murder case, after all, it was too coincidental, because he had been working hard to investigate the massacre of Gu Xingyuan's family.
Gu Xingyuan was Ye Xingguo's good friend. The tomb raiders were hastily executed, which seemed more like scapegoats to cover up the real murderers.
“I’ll consider this. You’ve been using torture to extract a confession, and they’ve even called from Handong, asking me to help send you back for questioning.”
Damn, you're pretty quick. Liang Qunfeng, that old bastard, don't push your luck. In the end, I'm the victim. Your daughter isn't a princess. Does every man have to love her? If you push me too far, I'll put you in my space.
Qi Tongwei feigned a pitiful expression, "Director Ye, you're not really going to hand me over, are you?"
Ye Xingguo said with a serious expression, "Are you scared, kid?"
What's there to be afraid of? I'm a gigolo now, and I have just as much powerful backing.
You should just think these words in your heart; you definitely can't say them out loud.
Qi Tongwei smiled ingratiatingly, "Director Ye, it's fine if you arrest me, I'm afraid I won't be able to fight for you anymore."
