Yan Dengkui's words seemed to be understatement, but in fact they were extremely sharp, as if he was stabbing Xiao Zheng with Shang Fang's sword in his hand. It was difficult for Xiao Zheng to resist.
Yes.
As a special envoy, Yan Dengkui indeed has such capital. No one dared to stop what he wanted to investigate. Even if there are policies and countermeasures from above, Yan Dengkui will not be fooled too blatantly. Even if Yan Dengkui just uses a little trick, which seems like a small test, it may still cause fatal harm to the black bear and Shen Manjun.
This is probably the helplessness caused by power.
After leaving the Lin family, Yan Dengkui showed an expression that Xiao Zheng had expected. But it also left him helpless. At least for the time being, he couldn't think of a good way to deal with Yan Dengkui's harsh words. After all, he has never been in politics, and he is not a moral figure. It must become the hub between the two and coordinate the contradictions and disputes between the two. Xiao Zheng's more than twenty years of life experience alone is still too weak and too powerless.
Mr. Xiao, have you ever heard of a good bird choosing its wood? Yan Dengkui smiled slightly. He had seen through Xiao Zheng's heart and knew that facing the high pressure of the inspection team, even if Xiao Zheng had someone to rely on, it would be difficult to have a foolproof plan.
This is his biggest trump card over Xiao Zheng.
I don't like using animals as metaphors for humans. Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette and said with a serious expression. This is an insulting term.
But many times, it is a wise choice. Yan Dengkui said calmly.
What do you want to say? Xiao Zheng asked rhetorically.
Leave Lin Huayin. Yan Dengkui made no secret and made his intentions clear. Maybe I'll consider not embarrassing you too much.
You've already embarrassed me. Xiao Zheng took a puff of cigarette and said with a steady look.
That's sorry. Yan Dengkui said leisurely. I didn't expect your self-esteem to be so strong.
I didn't expect that the person Lin Chaotian fell in love with would be so miserable. Xiao Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
what are you saying? Yan Dengkui asked calmly.
I did not say anything. It's you who's saying it.
Xiao Zheng picked up the cigarette lighter hidden in the palm of his hand, made a crisp sound, and a highly restored voice sounded: Leave Lin Huayin. Maybe I'll consider not embarrassing you too much.
Click.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Dengkui's face showed shock and anger, and he said in a cold tone: Do you think you can threaten me by doing this
Xiao Zheng smiled and said: I have more, do you want to listen to them all
Yan Dengkui said in a deep voice: Do you think you can gain an advantage just by recording a few sentences
No, I wasn't trying to gain any advantage. Xiao Zheng shook his head, took a puff of cigarette and said. But I want to tell you. Lin Huayin is mine. You can't take it away, and you can't even think about it. Secondly, this is Mingzhu, not Yanjing. You may think that you have the background, the backing, and the power given by the central government. You can run unimpeded. But have you ever heard the saying that the mountains are high and the emperor is far away
As long as I let it, Mingzhu will be paralyzed tonight. The reason is that a member of the inspection team parachuted into this originally calm and peaceful city. Xiao Zheng put out his cigarette and said with a smile. Section Chief Yan. do you know? Some people can start over as long as they don't die. There are also people who, even if they just fall down, can never stand up again. I am the former. Are you the latter
Yan Dengkui's handsome and elegant face had complicated expressions, and a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes. He knew that he had lost the first confrontation tonight, a complete defeat. He did not exaggerate his energy, but underestimated Xiao Zheng's IQ. First of all, he didn't expect that Xiao Zheng would secretly record himself speaking, and secondly, he didn't expect that Xiao Zheng would be so courageous. He actually used the security of the entire city to put pressure on himself.
As Xiao Zheng said, if he came by air on the first day, uncontrollable chaos would occur in Mingzhu. It is foreseeable that early tomorrow morning, he will receive an emergency recall order from his old leaders and even Yanjing. Maybe even the inspection team can no longer tolerate him.
Xiao Zheng said that some people may not be able to get up if they fall. Yan Dengkui could not be so unlucky, but he was not willing to take such a risk. As we all know, in politics, bad deeds are the hardest to erase. It is also the most lethal weapon that is most easily exploited by the enemy.
You are smarter than I thought.
After a long silence, Yan Dengkui continued: But you underestimated my determination.
I call such determination foolishness. Xiao Zheng said calmly.
True ignorance is not retreating despite difficulties. It is self-righteousness. It's arrogant. Yan Dengkui asked with cold eyes. How many did you take
You have it all. Xiao Zheng fought back.
Yan Dengkui shrugged and said: You have another smart-aleck.
If you are not smart, how can you judge that I am smart? Xiao Zheng said with narrowed eyes. Section Chief Yan. There are many ghosts on the road at night, so I will send them off not far away.
After saying that, Xiao Zheng turned around and went home. Yan Dengkui was left alone.
When Xiao Zheng came home, Lin Xiaozhu was helping Lin Huayin clean up the living room. Seeing Xiao Zheng coming back, he jumped over in a hurry and asked: How was the chat
How about what? Xiao Zheng pretended to be fine.
cut. What kind of white rabbit are you pretending to be? Lin Xiaozhu curled his lips and said. If you men get jealous, won't you all get into a fight
Do you really want a man to fight for you? Xiao Zheng narrowed his eyes and smiled evilly.
I'm not that bored. Lin Xiaozhu's eyes flickered and he walked towards the kitchen. My sister asked you to go upstairs and find her when you come back.
You didn't say you wanted to see me for anything? What Xiao Zheng fears most is that Lin Huayin takes the initiative to find him. Eleven times out of ten, it's just looking for trouble. He was already preparing to escape to find a black bear for a midnight snack.
Don't even think about running. As a sister-in-law, Lin Xiaozhu certainly knew how Xiao Zheng and Lin Huayin interacted with each other, in a yin and yang way. Brother-in-law, just be honest. Don't make my sister angry again.
After that, he went back to the kitchen to wash the dishes, leaving Xiao Zheng alone in the living room.
Xiao Zheng touched his chin and walked back and forth in the living room several times before he plucked up the courage to go upstairs. He thought to himself: My brother Azheng, a tall and dignified man, will be afraid of a woman who has no strength to restrain a chicken? If she wants to pick a fight with me, I'll throw her out over my shoulder. Another old tree root came and pinned her to the bedside, making her unable to move—
Saying this, Xiao Zheng took a deep breath and muttered: Why is my heartbeat so fast? Could it be that my myocardial infarction, which I had not had for many years, finally recurred? No, I have to take two pills of medicine first to avoid sudden heart attack and death without treatment -
Just as he was about to go downstairs to get the medicine, the door suddenly opened, and Lin Huayin, wearing pajamas and a plain face, appeared at the door: What are you going to do
Make some milk for you. Brother Azheng became wise in his anxiety.
No. After Lin Huayin said this, she turned around and went back to her room without looking back. Come in.
