In name only: In the name of Zhao Mengsheng's son!

Hou Liangping still insisted on seeing Zhao Zhongxin, feeling that Zhao Zhongxin should give him a hand, but how could Zhao Zhongxin possibly see him at this time? Li Kangjian said directly!

"Senior Monkey, when I got into trouble before, Senior Zhongxin told you he would bail me out, but you said someone like me shouldn't be helped, it would tarnish his reputation. What's wrong with you today? Are you waiting for him to bail you out? Doesn't that tarnish his reputation?"

Hou Liangping was stunned when Li Kangjian said this. His words had come back to haunt him like a boomerang!

"We are different, you..."

Before Hou Liangping could speak, Li Kangjian interrupted him!

"What's different? When you framed me for embezzlement, you forgot! Huh? And you told that Xiao Gangyu, yes, yes, Chief Prosecutor Ji, to arrest Xiao Gangyu right now, damn it! You forgot about that son of a bitch!"

Upon hearing Li Kangjian's words, Zhong Xiaoai outside shook her head helplessly. What was wrong with her husband? He had only been in Handong for a few months, yet he was already swearing so much. Was this an interrogation? Why was he being treated like a marketplace? He must have learned it from Zhao Zhongxin. She and Li Kangjian had been married for twenty years, and Li Kangjian had always been a gentle and refined person!

Zhong Xiaoai felt that after understanding the situation in Handong, she should quickly have Li Kangjian return to Beijing with her. If he stayed in Handong for a while, her husband would definitely turn bad! He would become just like Zhao Zhongxin!

Hey, if Li Kangjian knew about Zhong Xiaoai's idea, he would definitely be speechless and would definitely say something like, "!"

"How many golden opportunities does one get in life? Senior Zhao Zhongxin is right in front of me, and you short-sighted woman want me to leave Handong? I have to seize this opportunity! I'm about to become a vice-minister in a few years, and you want me to leave? If it weren't for the child you gave birth to, I would be divorcing you today!"

Faced with the choice between his future and his wife, Li Kangjian from twenty years ago would definitely have chosen his wife, since he also loved Zhong Xiaoai. But now, he would definitely choose his future. Anyone who tries to stop him, no matter who they are, he will push aside! Of course, he still wants his child. He knows his father is gone, and his journey has been truly arduous. Although no one in his circle of wealthy young masters has ever mocked him for his official position—because his father was a hero—most people from similar backgrounds at his age are already at the provincial level. For example, Zhong Jianjun, his cousin, is also at the provincial level at his age. If he doesn't work hard, what about his child? Will he have any future in this life?

Therefore, Li Kangjian will definitely follow Zhao Zhongxin. As I said before, "This humble general, Li Kangjian, is willing to go through fire and water for the Zhao family for generations!" Even if Zhao Zhongxin goes down a dark path, he will follow! Because he knows that anyone can use someone else's resources to curry favor. If he didn't follow from the beginning, would Zhao Zhongxin even notice him? He knows Zhao Zhongxin's potential; if he reaches his peak, he could very well become like Zhao Mengsheng now!

So what if we lose? I'll follow my brother and go for it. We've been glorious for over a decade, and I'm willing to accept defeat!

Li Kangjian saw things very clearly; he didn't want his child to end up like him, a son-in-law living with his wife's family! Yes, Li Kangjian still considered himself a son-in-law, even though others might not think that way, he had his own pride! He wanted to earn a future for his son!

"Okay, I understand. The disciplinary committee people have already gone to Xiao Gangyu's side!"

Ji Changming also said!

"OK!"

Li Kangjian responded, then looked at Hou Liangping, who was somewhat excited!

"Li Kangjian, there are so many corrupt officials in Handong, why are you so fixated on your senior? We're from the same school!"

Li Kangjian's eyes turned cold when he heard this!

"And what about you? How do you explain Chen Hai's matter? When you attacked your fellow disciples, didn't you ever think about what you were saying? Chen Hai was your best brother!"

"Chen Hai forced me into a corner! He's completely unreasonable; if I don't deal with him, he'll send me to jail! I have no choice! I treated him like a brother, but he..."

Before Hou Liangping could finish speaking, Li Kangjian's eyes turned cold, and he ripped off the communication device in his hand, saying in a low voice!

"Hou Liangping, you're fucking stupid! If you had confessed to Teacher Gao, and if Senior Zhongxin had been in Handong at the time, would all this have happened? Don't you dare use the word 'brother,' it disgusts me, it makes me want to vomit! You know why I suspected you were the murderer from the very beginning!"

Upon hearing this, Hou Liangping was somewhat bewildered and subconsciously asked a question!

"Why, why!"

"Since Chen Hai's accident, we fellow disciples have frequently come to see him. You only came once, on the day of the accident. Have you come at all? You're afraid, aren't you? Afraid that Chen Hai will suddenly wake up and confess all your crimes!"

At this moment, Li Kangjian plugged the device back in. The people outside thought it was just a temporary glitch, but of course he knew which things he could say and which he couldn't!

Hou Liangping realized his mistake at this point. If he hadn't murdered Chen Hai, even if Chen Hai had told Li Kangjian about his crimes, someone like Li Kangjian would definitely have asked Zhao Zhongxin, and Zhao Zhongxin might very well have helped him!

"Confess, senior. If you want to save face, everyone's happy. If you don't want to save face, I'll help you save face!"

Li Kangjian said coldly, but actually he wanted to recruit others as well. These corrupt officials in Handong were his stepping stones to advancement! So he hoped that his senior, Hou Liangping, could lend him a hand! He didn't think Hou Liangping was a tough guy!

Hou Liangping remained silent for a long time, knowing he was going to die either way, so he decided to say everything. He didn't care if anyone suffered; he'd rather take a group of people down with him than go to hell alone! Liang Lu, yes, he also had leverage over Liang Lu's brothers. He was going to take their family with him even on his deathbed. Liang Lu, you think you're so great? You look down on me? I'll make sure you remember me!

Hou Liangping confessed a great deal, basically ten pages long, nine and a half pages of which were about the people. Zhao Ruilong appeared the most, followed by Liang Qunfeng and his two sons. He also confessed about Gao Yuliang, who had divorced, remarried, and had children, and other things he had concealed. Li Kangjian simply ignored these details. Gao Yuliang's situation was minor. He knew about things like his father-in-law, and even Zhong Xiaoai knew about them, but so what? As long as you don't choose the wrong side, it's not a big deal!

Li Kangjian's eyes lit up as he looked at the other people's names. This was all thanks to the promotion! Thank you, Hou Liangping, for sending in these corrupt officials!
