Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 710 Take the initiative
At the same time, Li Yancheng, who had just finished a meeting, returned to his office and was about to call the headquarters to inquire about the situation when the red telephone on his desk rang.

Seeing that it was the red telephone ringing, Li Yancheng raised an eyebrow and answered it without hesitation.

"Hello, this is Li Yancheng."

"Yan Cheng, it's me, Lao Shen!"

Uncle Shen

Li Yancheng was somewhat surprised, and his eyebrows rose even higher after hearing his self-identification.

Wow, this guy actually called himself Old Shen. He turned his head and looked out the window. It should be right, right? He remembered looking at it when he got up this morning. The sun rises from the east!
Although the old man who calls himself Lao Shen enjoys only half a grade higher treatment after retirement than he does now, he is a genuine veteran who carried a gun during the War of Resistance against Japan.

Not to mention that his father-in-law was also a comrade-in-arms; how could he possibly call this guy "Old Shen"? He didn't have the guts.

"Please don't joke with me." Li Yancheng said with a smile on the other end of the phone, "Uncle Shen, please let me know if you need anything."

He bet this guy had something important to say when he called him today, something significant, otherwise he wouldn't have started calling him "Old Shen" like that.

What's the matter?

Although this old man Shen and his father-in-law were comrades-in-arms, they did not have a deep personal relationship, let alone with Li Yancheng. Apart from the fact that after Luo Yang went to work in the south, he would visit on behalf of his father-in-law to pay New Year's greetings during holidays, they had no contact at all on ordinary days.

He made this phone call out of the blue today, and when he answered, he acted so humble. I don't believe he's telling me nothing's wrong.

It's about the children! It's absolutely about the children!

In the blink of an eye, Li Yancheng had already guessed the intention of the comrade who called himself Lao Shen when he made the call.

"Yan Cheng..."

Old Mr. Shen was unaware that the purpose of his call had been guessed, so he didn't get straight to the point and started chatting about other things.

Seeing that he wanted to change the subject, Li Yancheng played along. The two of them played "Tai Chi" on the phone. After only a few minutes, he saw Xiao Yang standing at the door of the office that he hadn't closed when he came in, holding a piece of paper in his hand.

Upon seeing Xiao Yang, he raised his hand and waved, indicating that he could come in.

Yang Chundong was about to leave when he saw the leader answering the red phone at the door, but when he saw the leader beckoning him to come in, he hurriedly went inside.

Xiao Yang came in and went to the desk, placing the paper in his hand on the table.

While humming and hawing through the phone receiver to answer Old Shen on the other end, Li Yancheng reached out and picked up the letter that Xiao Yang had placed on the table to read.

He glanced at it once, and his gaze sharpened, a cold smile appearing on his lips.

The paper contained only one sentence. The people who were caught by the security personnel confessed that they went to stop the laughter and chatter because they were instructed by someone named Qin Qing.

Li Yancheng didn't recognize the name and could only guess that it must be a woman.

However, there was another line below this one, which briefly introduced Qin Qing. Her father's name was Qin Zhenye, and her mother's name was Shen Hongyan.

Okay, now he knows who this woman named Qin Qing is.

His guess was right. The old man Shen had called to talk about the problem of his two children being cornered by someone more than two hours earlier.

Because this Qin Qing is Old Man Shen's granddaughter. After putting down the paper in his hand, Li Yancheng nodded to Xiao Yang, who then left the office.

After Xiao Yang left, Li Yancheng lowered his eyes and looked at the paper he had just put down. He stared at the name Qin Qing written on the paper, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

Seeing that the old man from the Shen family was still rambling on the phone, he shifted his gaze down a little and looked at the last few sentences written on the paper.

According to the arrested individuals, they only sought out laughter and chatter to scare them, and had no intention of actually harming them. Qin Qing had given them the same instructions when she approached them.

According to the leader of the thugs, Qin Qing did this to avenge her boyfriend, Zeng Lei.

As for who Zeng Lei is, a brief introduction is provided below.

After reading the rest of the content, Li Yancheng lit a cigarette and interrupted Old Man Shen's rambling on the other end of the phone.

"Uncle Shen, Qin Qing is your granddaughter."

Upon hearing this, Old Man Shen on the other end of the phone fell silent.

Seeing that there was no response from the phone receiver, Li Yancheng was not in a hurry. He just smoked a cigarette and waited patiently.

After a while, and with his cigarette almost finished, there was finally a response from the phone receiver.

"Yancheng, your Uncle Shen apologizes to you first, and also apologizes to you on behalf of Zhenye and Hongyan. It's a misfortune for our family to have raised such a thing. We are really sorry."

Zhenye originally wanted to call you personally, but he had just been transferred back from out of town and wasn't familiar with you, so I, the old man, took on this task instead. Yancheng, I'm calling you from Qin Qing's grandfather's perspective. I don't mean to take advantage of my age or put any pressure on you.

Let me put it this way: my granddaughter has broken the law, and she should be punished accordingly. There's absolutely no problem with increasing the severity of the punishment. What she did this time was definitely overstepping the line; she was far too audacious and reckless.

Neither her parents nor I have any objection to any punishment you impose on her.

Upon hearing this, Li Yancheng spoke up.

"Uncle Shen, let me correct you on one point. It's not my punishment of her, it's the law. You yourself said that she broke the law, and since she broke the law, she needs to face the punishment of the law. As for me personally... hehe, although I am the director of the Public Security Bureau, I do not have the power to use vigilante justice."

"Uh...yes, Yan Cheng, you're right. I was confused. She should face legal punishment."

"Since you've said so, Uncle Shen, then fine, I won't send anyone to arrest her. You can have Director Qin personally take her to our city's Criminal Investigation Department, and I'll consider it a voluntary surrender."

After saying this, Li Yancheng hung up the phone without waiting for the other party's reaction.

After putting down the red landline phone, he picked up the light yellow landline phone next to him, dialed a few numbers, and then clipped the receiver to his ear.

"Zhihai, it's me. Did you send anyone to arrest Qin Qing?"

"It has already been dispatched."

"Okay, contact them and tell them not to go in and arrest people right away when they get near the Qin family. Just wait outside. Old man Shen just called me. He's Qin Qing's maternal grandfather. He apologized to me on the phone."

I told him to give his granddaughter a chance; she could go to the headquarters herself, and that would be considered a voluntary surrender. Now…

Li Yancheng turned his head and glanced at the clock hanging on the wall.
