Chapter 501: The Inside Story
Li Yan is now the Assistant Commissioner of Police. If he is beaten up under the nose of the ICAC, people like Zhang Zhihao will be in big trouble.

At this moment, Chen Yongren's pupils were filled with blood, he gritted his teeth, his face looked ferocious and terrifying, he wished he could rush forward and bite Li Yan hard twice.

"By the way, please don't use your undercover identity as an excuse."

Seeing that Chen Yongren had lost his mind, Li Yan added fuel to the fire and said, "Do you know how difficult May's life was during those years? May was a single mother with a baby out of wedlock, and was despised by her family and the world. She had to work to earn money during the day and take care of the child at night. Where were you at that time?"

"On the eve of the handover in 1997, I was on my way home and saw May, a weak woman, in her pajamas holding her feverish child, stopping cars on the street in the middle of the night, begging someone to take her and her child to the hospital. Where were you at that time?"

"I'm afraid that Huang Zhicheng, who sent you undercover, would find these actions of yours shameful, right?"

As Li Yan continued to tell the story, Chen Yongren seemed to see a weak woman living a hard life alone with her child under the pointing and criticizing of the crowd. He sat on the chair feeling lost and no longer had the anger he had just felt.

"I'm telling you the truth. I'm having an affair with May."

Without waiting for everyone to question him, Li Yan said, "From then on, I started to help May and her daughter, but at that time, May and I had no friendship. I accidentally realized from Huang Zhicheng that you might be an undercover agent. At that time, I didn't have any other thoughts, I just simply felt sorry for this girl."

"I originally thought you were afraid of being an undercover agent and getting May into trouble. But after getting to know May, I found out that May didn't know your identity at all. You never told her. At that time, you and May had broken up for two years."

"At that time, I was trying to persuade May to get back together with you. I told her that you had your own reasons and that you might be an undercover agent. I also wanted to comfort her and give her confidence in life, because your identity was just my personal guess. Mr. Huang never made it clear."

"In order to help this girl and prevent the single man and woman from being gossiped about, I introduced my wife Li Xin'er to May and asked my wife to help her."

Li Yan revealed the inside story between Chen Yongren and outsiders: "In order for you to be together in the future, May attended a training school for two years under my introduction, and then was admitted to the Wong Chuk Hang Police School. In 1991, May graduated with excellent results and was asked to work at the West Kowloon Police Station as a civilian police officer."

"But her basic skills were quite poor and she had a hard time working, so I transferred her to my side and took over from Lin Guoping as my secretary. I actually taught her how to survive in the police force."

"Half a year ago, there was a rumor in the police force that May and I had an affair, so I was suspended from duty to reflect on my actions. The Police Department sent an investigation team, led by Ho Chi-kong from the Internal Affairs Department of the Supervision Department, to investigate my work style and May's problems."

"After a thorough investigation, it was found that there was nothing wrong between May and me. There was no affair as outsiders imagined."

Li Yan's frankness surprised Chen Yongren, and everyone from the ICAC looked at Chen Yongren in confusion.

As everyone knows, Ho Chi-kong of the Police Force belongs to the same disciplinary department. Ho Chi-kong is known as the upright and selfless "ghost king". He and Tsang Heung-wing of the Independent Commission Against Corruption are known as the "double shields" of Hong Kong Island.

This is the reputation accumulated from solving countless cases without any wrongful convictions over the decades. No one in the Hong Kong government would be unconvinced as long as the conclusions reached by these two people were true.

Since He Zhigang concluded that Li Yan and May did not have a relationship beyond friendship at that time, then it must be true. If there is no other reason, just these three words "He Zhigang" are the golden signboard, which is set in stone.

Everyone looked at Li Yan with a much kinder look. He changed from a villain who took advantage of his subordinate's misfortune to seduce his subordinate's wife to a gentleman who cared about his subordinates and their families!
Li Yan continued, "It was only more than a month ago that I divorced my wife Li Xin'er, and you have been back to the police station for more than two months, but you have not reconciled with May."

"I tried to persuade May privately several times, but she said that her fate with you had ended long ago and that you didn't love her at all. She only wanted to get back together with you because she was a police officer like you and she had a daughter. You just regarded her as a suitable marriage partner."

"Marriage without love is immoral, so she can't accept you."

Seeing Chen Yongren lost in thought, Li Yan sighed, "It was not until I divorced my wife that May told me that she had been in love with me for a long time and had always loved me, but she didn't want to destroy my family because I was a married man."

"Now that I am free, she doesn't have to suppress herself or worry about letting her heart down. She can bravely pursue her own happiness."

"I'm not afraid to tell you that our relationship is upright and honest, and there is nothing shameful about it."

Seeing the strange looks from the people in the car, Li Yan explained with a somewhat embarrassed look on his face: "I helped her when she was at her weakest, and then took care of her for another five years, supporting her, encouraging her, and helping her get out of the difficulties in her life, step by step to where she is today."

"Plus, my character, appearance, talent, status and position, Li Yan, I'm not the best, but I'm not that bad, right? It's not hard to understand that a man like me is secretly favored by May, don't you think?"

Everyone in the car looked at Li Yan's handsome appearance, wearing a majestic director's uniform, looking gentle and elegant, holding a high position and willing to help others, and nodded silently. No wonder May was tempted!

The woman who had despised Li Yan at the beginning, now looked at Li Yan, and then looked at Chen Yongren, who was more handsome than Li Yan but had a gloomy face at the moment, and she immediately felt that the difference was obvious.

"If that's the case, I can understand May's feelings." The woman couldn't help but say. Then she looked at Chen Yongren with contempt: "Since you haven't seen May for seven years, and you don't even know that you have a six-year-old daughter, and you haven't even given her a name, how dare you say that she is your wife? Inspector Chen, please be responsible for what you say."

Chen Yongren's face flushed immediately. Facing the other party's ridicule and contempt, he angrily said to Li Yan: "No matter how shameless I am, I am still a policeman. What about you?"

"He is just an undercover agent of Han Chen, a spy who has infiltrated the police force. The honor of the police force must not be tarnished!"

Everyone then remembered that Li Yan was their target, and Chen Yongren was the witness. They looked at each other with sullen expressions.

Li Yan smiled faintly and did not respond to this question. Instead, he brought up another topic that shocked Chen Yongren: "Aren, do you know that Xiao already knew that you were Jingyan's undercover agent?"

boom.
Chen Yongren's face suddenly showed an incredible look, and then his face instantly turned red. He stood up with more shame than his wife being slept with by someone else, and shouted excitedly: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could he know my identity?"

"Don't try to deceive me. You're going to be finished soon. Stop slandering me here."

Everyone, including Zhang Zhihao, was a little confused as to why Chen Yongren's emotions were so out of control all of a sudden. Just now, when his sweetheart threw herself into Li Yan's arms, he wasn't so excited.

The vehicle was still moving and the curtains were drawn on the windows. I couldn't see what was happening outside and I didn't know where it was going.

Li Yan had always been disgusted by Chen Yongren's actions, and now that he was harmed, he no longer hesitated and said slowly: "You are Ni Kun's illegitimate son, and it is understandable that you have nothing to do with the Ni family, but I cannot understand why you were commissioned by Huang Zhicheng to overthrow the Ni family."

愕.
Li Yan's words stunned everyone in the ICAC. Chen Yongren was actually Ni Kun's son. Although they were all investigators of the ICAC, they would not inexplicably pay attention to the background of an ordinary police officer.

Everyone looked at Chen Yongren in surprise, and seeing that he had no intention of refutation, they knew that this must be the fact.

Policemen must have a clean background, but since Sun Yongren is Ni Kun’s illegitimate son, he should not be able to join the police force. But now Chen Yongren is an inspector, which means that something special may have happened at that time, so that the police academy network made an exception.

These reasons can be found in the archives, and no one thinks Li Yan would lie about this.

"I'm a policeman." Chen Yongren retorted in a timid tone.

"You are a person first, and a police officer second!"

Before Chen Yongren could finish his words, Li Yan interrupted him. A powerful aura suddenly erupted and attacked Chen Yongren fiercely. Chen Yongren was halfway through his words when his courage shrank. His lips trembled and he looked at Li Yan in shock, unable to speak anymore.

Not only Chen Yongren, but also everyone in the carriage was startled by the imposing Li Yan. Before, they thought that Li Yan was young, kind, and spoke slowly, so they unconsciously underestimated him in their hearts.

I think the Police Force is really funny. A young man in his twenties or thirties was promoted to Assistant Commissioner. It's really a joke.

But at this time, Li Yan's aura as a superior was unbridled. Everyone realized that everyone in a high position was not simple. Li Yan's face became serious, and his majesty made everyone speechless, and they no longer dared to look down on Li Yan.

Zhang Zhihao, who was on the opposite side, was the first to be hit. He was overwhelmed and could not breathe. His chest felt extremely heavy, as if a huge rock was pressing on it. He actually felt that Li Yan at this moment was even more powerful than Zeng Xiangrong.

"Humph"

Li Yan snorted, and all his aura was retracted, and the air in the carriage began to flow again.

"Do you remember the time when Ah Xiao's daughter had a birthday party the night before he was about to attack the five gangs in Tsim Sha Tsui?"

Seeing Chen Yongren looking at him with a questioning look on his face, Li Yan looked dazed, as if he had returned to the original scene: "That time, it was a trap designed by Ah Xiao to pull out the police undercover lurking around him."

"On the afternoon of the previous day, Ah Xiao had people install surveillance equipment in hidden places around the yard."

Having said this, Chen Yongren's face suddenly changed, his eyes began to flicker, and his breathing became rapid.
