Film and Television: I, Xu Lei, won over Chen Shuting

Page 66

"I'm a deputy director, after all. Don't say those things anymore. What will my subordinates think of me? I'll lose face."

Xu Lei said, "Then it depends on your performance."

"I'm learning, please forgive me."

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

The arrest of so many officials caused a huge news sensation, and countless people applauded the outcome.

On Tencent News, Huang Xishu wrote an article and uploaded it directly, showing the scene of the arrest.

This can be described as first-hand reporting.

He Yong was the busiest of them all.

He Yong called Li Chengyang in the morning.

"How's your investigation going?"

"We're just guessing the general direction, but we can't find any clues. We're still searching."

'Okay, keep an eye on it. I'll put in a bit more effort here, add some more fuel, and see if we can knock something out.'

Li Chengyang said, "I have to deal with the new coach's matter for the time being. I suspect that Ma Shuai's death was deliberately caused, and now Hai Ge wants to take back my shares."

"Who do you suspect?"

"Dong Yao, I suspect this person works for Gao Mingyuan."

"Okay, I understand."

After hanging up the phone, He Yong pondered some things about Dong Yao.

Unexpectedly, the investigation led to this person.

The head of a district isn't someone you can just move around in.

At this moment, He Yun walked into the station, his face flushed.

He Yong said, "Director He, you look radiant."

He Yun said, "Stop teasing me, how did the question go?"

"They all understand that if they can't be persuaded, they'll die even faster; it's better if they don't."

Just then, Xu Lei walked in with flowers in hand and said, "Director He, you look so good. Did you use 'yang-tonifying' to replenish your yin last night?"

He Yun glared at Xu Lei, then glanced at Xu Lei's lower body, and Xu Lei instinctively felt a chill of fear.

This woman really doesn't know how.

Still have to practice.

"That's my business. Why are you bringing this over?"

"I'm sending you flowers. Flowers and beautiful women are a perfect match."

He Yong rubbed his temples helplessly. "Who can you two fool?"

Everyone knows that Xu Lei was at your house last night.

So eager to go back, something must have happened.

He Yun slunk away and went upstairs.

Xu Lei sat down next to Lin Hao and asked, "Is there anything to eat?"

Lin Hao took out his steamed buns and said, "This is it, it's cold. Do you want some?"

"Eat something, I'm starving."

He Yong said, "You came here today for more than just this, didn't you?"

Xu Lei said, "I heard that your Green Vine has a 'Cannon King' named Chen Jianbo, right?"

He Yong keenly sensed that something was amiss.

"I heard that the excavators he hired are all illegal. Aren't you going to investigate?"

Only Lin Hao and He Yong heard these words.

Lin Hao didn't understand, but He Yong did.

"Lin Hao, take some men to the construction site."

Lin Hao understood and immediately led his men to set off.

He Yong invited Xu Lei upstairs.

Upon entering the office, He Yong asked, "Have we taken action?"

"Yes, we found a corpse. The body size and age are about the same. Xue Mei has to be dead. Only when Xue Mei is dead can those people lower their guard."

"But Xue Mei isn't dead."

"That's not important. As long as the higher-ups know that Xue Mei is dead, that's enough. I've already brought Green Vine back with Mai Mai. Don't worry, there won't be any mistakes."

Xue Mei is dead. The person who took care of her was Gao Mingyuan's subordinate, but Gao Mingyuan has not made any explicit statement.

But when people die, Gao Mingyuan will think that his subordinates did a good job.

Chen Jianbo wouldn't think much of it. He was dead anyway. It didn't matter who killed him. He would take the credit, but the investigation would definitely not involve him.

Absolutely safe.

When everyone feels like they've gained something, things get interesting.

Sure enough, Xue Mei's body was soon found at the construction site, and Chen Jianbo was subsequently summoned.

However, after investigation, Chen Jianbo had an alibi, and many people could testify to his presence.

Helpless, Chen Jianbo had no choice but to be released.

On the very day Chen Jianbo was released, Gao Mingyuan sent Chen Jianbo two million yuan, plus a car.

Chen Jianbo was overjoyed.

They also indicated that they would provide Chen Jianbo with some more work at the sand pits.

This made Chen Jianbo so happy he almost jumped for joy.

Xue Mei's death infuriated Lin Hao, who vowed to catch the murderer.

Then, Mai Mai arrived and saw her mother. She cried so hard that she even fainted.

Finally, Xu Lei made up an excuse and took Mai Mai away.

Then, Xu Lei didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, he held a funeral for Mai Mai's mother at Green Vine and invited some people.

The funeral was small, and Xu Lei stayed with Mai Mai throughout the entire process.

Why did you start crying?

“I’m learning acting. You paid me to learn those things, right? I saw there was a lot of money involved, so I learned everything, even though I didn’t know if it was useful.”

"I'll keep vigil with you today. You should know how to behave, right?"

"I understand. Is Gao Mingyuan going to send another message?"

Xu Lei said, "Send a message, something like asking for help."

Mai Mai sent a message, and Gao Mingyuan comforted her, saying, "Don't worry, I'll find a way to investigate. You're one of my people, and I will never let you suffer any injustice. I'm coming right now."

At this fake funeral, Xu Lei and Gao Mingyuan met again. This time, they didn't argue, but acted like good friends.

Mai Mai knelt to the side, not saying a word, and sobbing.

Xu Lei and Gao Mingyuan chatted.

“This is indeed a difficult matter to handle. After all, Mai Mai is my woman, and I have to take care of her.”

Gao Mingyuan said, "Don't worry, I will give you an explanation. I am still quite useful to Green Vine. It is my son who has troubled you."

"Isn't he your nephew?"

"At a time like this, there's no need to hide anything, and with you, there's no need to care about these things."

Xu Lei said, "Mai Mai is quite pitiful. To be honest, seeing this girl kneeling like this, with no relatives at all, I had Xiao Qiang forcibly bring her here."

Gao Mingyuan said, "Yes, they are indeed quite pitiful."

"Tell me, which damned bastard dared to bully this family? What did they do to deserve this? Their father is dead, and now they've killed their mother too. I bet if you hadn't given Mai Mai to me, she would have been scammed too."

Gao Mingyuan smiled and said, "That person is indeed quite despicable, but Mai Mai is fortunate to be with Boss Xu."

Xu Lei nodded.

Gao Mingyuan is indeed quite shrewd; even when he's being insulted like that, he doesn't say anything and even smiles.

"By the way, Mr. Gao, your mobile phones are selling well, right?"

Gao Mingyuan said, "I'm still grateful for your help, brother. Otherwise, I'd like to share some of my shares with you."

"No way, Mr. Gao, I don't want to get involved with you again."

Gao Mingyuan said, "Brother, you have a wide network of connections, tell me about it."

Xu Lei said, "I'm quite familiar with Zhong Xiaoai's side. When I treated her to dinner, she let something slip. I heard that the supervisory team is just here to put on a show, you know what I mean."

Gao Mingyuan instantly understood and said, "I won't thank you enough. I'll send the Emperor Dragon to you tomorrow."

Xu Lei looked at Mai Mai and said, "Give it to Mai Mai, sigh, let's use her name. This kid should have some business of her own and make some money, shouldn't she?"

"Mr. Xu is quite the ladies' man."

"I'm not a smoker or drinker, I just like girls. Boss Gao, talk to Zheng Yihong and tell her not to be angry. What's wrong with a man having a few women?"

"no problem."

Gao Mingyuan left.

Xu Lei asked Mai Mai to stand up and said, "Do you understand?"

"I understand. By the way, what's our next step?"

"It's pretty simple. You take the money, start playing, start making a fuss, and whatever you do with the money gives people the impression that you're easy to fool. Got it?"

"Well," Mai Mai said, "but I am indeed easy to fool."

Silly girl.

Xu Lei took out a slip of paper and said, "Take some vocal lessons later. This is for you; you can hand it out later."

Looking at the song, MaiMai said, "You wrote this?"

"Well, I'm awesome, right?"

Mai Mai happily hugged Xu Lei and said, "Boss, you're amazing! Thank you so much. I definitely won't let you down."

Xu Lei said, "Your boss is capable in more ways than just this."

Mai Mai blushed and said, "Boss, what are you talking about? I don't know."

Xu Lei picked up the phone and called He Yun.

"Didn't I tell you to give me some time?"

Xu Lei said, "I told Gao Mingyuan that the supervisory team's visit here was just for show."

Hearing the cold words, He Yun instinctively said, "Okay, I will do it."

He Yun surprisingly liked this way of giving orders.

Xu Lei told a lie, and the supervisory team cooperated fully. Xu Zhong and Luo Shanhe chose not to pursue the matter further.

Instead, they drank together.

These have all been reported and are intended for others to see.

When Gao Mingyuan saw the supervisory team starting to join in the fun, he breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that sending some people out to help had actually been helpful.

Wang Zheng's side has also become more active, no longer staying at home.
