In name only: I will break the chess game in Handong

"I'm telling you, Hou Liangping, are you starving at the Discipline Inspection Commission?"

Now you wolf down your food, don't you even leave a single grain of rice in your bowl? Tsk, the Discipline Inspection Commission really knows how to toughen people up!

Hou Liangping trembled with anger.

"I certainly won't waste a single grain of food. I'm not like some people's fathers who claim to be heroes and honest, people-loving cadres, but secretly engage in bribery. When I kindly offered to carry two boxes of milk, they were thrown on the ground. I think the sons raised by such old geezers are just like them, rotten to the core!"

Otherwise, you wouldn't have been demoted from the head of the Anti-Corruption Bureau to the deputy head, and then directly dismissed. I heard that some old guy begged and pleaded with everyone to get you reassigned to the Guangming District. Tsk tsk tsk, let's see how long you can last.

"Don't let the old man be alive before you're dismissed and investigated."

Hou Liangping said that Chen Hai could remain calm about everything else, but he couldn't stand it when his father was mentioned or when he was suspended or dismissed from his post.

"Hou Liangping! How dare you mention that! If you hadn't framed me time and time again, and even plotted against my father, I wouldn't have fought you to the death! It's all your fault!"

"Chen Hai, don't get agitated. Isn't it because you're stupid?"

Do you know why I was able to get out? To tell you the truth, Cai Chenggong already knows about your affair with Tang Chuchu, and he wishes he could kill you!

Just pray you outlive that old man in your family.

"you!"

Unable to bear it any longer, Chen Hai stood up and threw the tea in his cup at Hou Liangping. Hou Liangping was equally defiant and threw his drink back at Chen Hai. By this point, neither of them was in the mood for the meal.

Without saying a word, he got up to pay the bill.

As they were leaving, Zhong Xiaoai, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke.

"Chen Hai, you are foolish. Your actions will come at a price, a price your family cannot afford!"

There was no hysteria, only Zhong Xiaoai's calm eyes, which was even more terrifying than Hou Liangping's cursing.

Chen Hai's expression was extremely solemn.

In the car, Tang Chuchu, who was next to Chen Hai, cautiously asked him a question.

"Brother Hai, is it that our family can't afford to offend them? Why did you stop talking at the end?"

Chen Hai didn't notice the change in Tang Chuchu's expression, and calmly explained, "Hou Liangping is nothing, he's just the director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Procuratorate."

I am not greedy or corrupt, so there's nothing you can do about it.

But his wife is now the deputy secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission of Handong Province, which is one rank higher than me.

The key point is that Zhong Xiaoai's father holds a very high position!

Tang Chuchu, who had been clinging to Chen Hai, vanished without a trace upon hearing these words.

Even the body that had been leaning against Chen Hai quietly detached, and she sat upright in the passenger seat.

His eyes flickered between light and shadow.

Finally, out of curiosity, he asked, "By the way, Brother Hai, who was the one in the hot pot restaurant who told you not to make noise?"

It seems even Zhong Xiaoai is afraid of him.

"You mean Secretary Chen? Don't let his young age fool you, he's only thirty-eight. He's a member of the Standing Committee of the Handong Provincial Party Committee, Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, and Secretary of the Luzhou Municipal Party Committee. He has a powerful background, so it's normal for us to remain restrained and not cause any trouble."

"Understood……"

At this moment, Tang Chuchu had already made her own decision.

Chapter 162 Tang Chuchu's Changes, Governor Liu's Relief

Back in the neighborhood, Chen Hai was seething with anger. He reached out and hugged the hot-bodied Tang Chuchu.

As a result, Tang Chuchu quietly struggled out.

"Brother Hai, not now, I'm on my period."

Chen Hai was stunned for a moment, but seeing Tang Chuchu's shy and guilty expression, he still chose to believe her.

"Okay, then you should take a rest these few days."

"Okay, Hai-ge, I'll take Cai Cai to sleep tonight so I don't disturb you when I get up at night."

Before Chen Hai could agree, Tang Chuchu slipped away.

When Tang Chuchu arrived at Cai Cai's room, her expression was extremely unpleasant.

At this moment, Cai Cai also peeked out from under the covers.

Looking at his mother curiously, he asked, "Mom? Aren't you going with Uncle Chen?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Chuchu shook her head, then went to Cai Cai's side, pulled back the covers, and lay down.

"What do you know? I originally thought that by getting involved with your Uncle Chen, the two of us would be set for life."

But now things aren't looking right. That idiot Chen Hai doesn't know his own limitations; he dared to mess with those big shots. He's going to be finished sooner or later.

"Oh? Mom, then we'd better be careful."

"Nonsense, I don't need you to remind me. Just cooperate during this time and try to squeeze every last drop of value out of your Uncle Chen. Then we'll go straight back to our hometown. We can't stay in Jingzhou any longer."

"I have to move again? I don't want to move..."

"You have to leave, whether you like it or not!"

For a moment, Cai Cai fell silent.

......................................................

Back at the provincial party committee compound, at nine o'clock in the evening, Chen Luo had just finished showering when his phone rang.

I picked up the phone and saw that it was Mr. Xu calling.

"Hey Mr. Xu, you've already missed me after only a few hours? Next time you come to Beijing, I'll definitely have a few drinks with you."

Chen Luo made a joke, while Old Xu's tone remained calm.

"Don't interrupt, there's been a result regarding the Tazhai Village matter."

Chen Luo's expression turned serious in an instant.

You'd never guess who got involved.

"Mr. Xu, I am not familiar with Handong, but he is most likely someone who has worked in Handong."

"Your guess is accurate. The mastermind or the one who condones it is the former secretary of Handong, now one of the deputy secretaries, who is currently in charge of religious affairs. His grandson got into drugs five years ago and has been unable to quit ever since."

Later, he was taken over by international drug traffickers. Naturally, the grandfather couldn't just sit idly by. He only had this one grandson, so he could only keep cleaning up his grandson's mess.

The attack on Qi Tongwei was arranged by him and international drug traffickers; one provided the manpower, and the other was responsible for making the connections.

"Sigh! It's all because of overindulgence!"

Chen Luo sighed, while Old Xu continued, "We just had a meeting and decided to handle this secretly and not announce it to the public."

I'm telling you this so you can tell Liu Changsheng something; it's something on his mind.

He still has six months before retiring, so it's good that he can fully support your development of Luzhou during this time.

"I understand, thank you, Mr. Xu!"

"No need to thank me. Without you developing Suzhou back then, I wouldn't be where I am today. Your future is equally bright. I'm nurturing you for the people, and also to leave a legacy for myself. I'm being very direct; it's up to you to decide."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Luo returned to his bedroom and opened the door to find the room filled with spring sunshine.

"Dry!"

At eight o'clock in the morning, Chen Luo was not in a hurry to return to Luzhou. It was Saturday, so he could stay for two more days.

Liu Mingyu had already made an appointment to meet with Governor Liu at nine o'clock in the morning.

Unhurriedly, Chen Luo arrived at the provincial government at 8:40 and was greeted by his secretary before being taken to the reception room.

At 8:55, Chen Luo pushed open Governor Liu's office door. Governor Liu was reviewing documents, the sound of his pen scratching the paper crisp and clear.

"Please sit down, no need for formalities."

Governor Liu looked up and put down his pen.

"Why are you at the provincial government at this time of year instead of being at home with your family? Luzhou isn't short of funds, is it?"

Governor Liu smiled faintly, while Chen Luo shook his head.

"Luzhou has no shortage of funds, but Governor Liu, there's some news you might be interested in."

"Oh? Tell me about it."

"What Qi Tongwei said to me that day was actually telling me some clues. The matter of Tazhai Village ultimately pointed to Secretary Miao, who took office in Handong."

Governor Liu, who had been calm, was instantly stunned.

"What did you say? Who are you referring to?"

"You heard right, it refers to Secretary Miao. His grandson was corrupted by international drug traffickers, and the grandfather helped cover it up for his grandson, but in the end, he got deeper and deeper into trouble."

In just a few short years, Tazhai Village has grown to a scale that is arguably unparalleled in the entire country.

Governor Liu's body trembled slightly as he slowly stood up.

"What was the result?"

Chen Luo calmly replied, "It will be handled secretly and not made public, but it's certain that he will have no descendants."

At that moment, Governor Liu felt relieved.

He has held a grudge ever since someone parachuted in and took his position as secretary four years ago; he considers ruining someone's future as killing their parents.

If the person who came was a capable Governor Liu, then there would be no problem, but he doesn't know anything and only knows how to follow Zhao Lichun's framework.

It's obvious he came here just to gain experience. How could Governor Liu not hate that such a person has ruined his future? It's just a pity that the other party's blood is too red.

There was no way to get revenge; all I could do was watch others gain experience and rise through the ranks after a few years of training.

Now... hearing that it was handled secretly, Governor Liu was finally relieved, even though he hadn't personally brought about the other party's downfall.

"Thank you, Chen Luo, thank you for telling me this news!"

Governor Liu's gratitude at this moment was genuine, without the slightest pretense.

"Governor Liu, no need for thanks. Please continue with your work. I'll be leaving now."

After leaving the provincial government building, Chen Luo did not choose to go home, but instead had the driver take him to the hospital.
