Chapter 100: Not Giving Face

Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi continued his actions, ignoring the phone ringing wildly on the side.

"Mr. Jiang, why aren't you answering the phone… Oh… Oh… Will it affect you handling some matters… Oh… Oh…"

Girl No. 8 said while moving under Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi, pretending to be shy.

"An inch of time… is worth an inch of gold. Even if the sky falls right now, I… won't care about it." Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi panted, pushing himself to speed up his movements as if he were risking his life.

"Mr. Jiang, you are truly so vigorous… I… I can't take it anymore…"

Girl No. 8 said deliberately. In reality, working in this industry, she had seen all sorts of vigorous men. Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi's intensity was really just a drizzle to her; she had no reaction at all. Her current display of wantonness was all faked to please Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi. Men have strong self-esteem in this regard and all hope that the woman pressed beneath them can be satisfied. Girl No. 8 was well-versed in men's psychology, so she knew how to please a man.

"I have even more vigorous moves!"

Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi was stimulated by Girl No. 8's words, and his movements became even more intense, wanting to prove he was a powerful man.

Actually, he was just a piece of trash whose combat power didn't last three minutes. If it weren't for the drugs he had taken, he would have surrendered long ago. One must know that he had been messing around outside for many years, and his body had long been hollowed out.

The phone stopped ringing for a while, but less than ten seconds later, it started ringing again.

"Damn it!" Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi cursed, but still didn't answer the phone. He felt his state was exceptionally good today and didn't want a phone call to ruin his mood.

But after the phone stopped, it rang again. This repeated several times until Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi finally couldn't take it anymore. He rolled off Girl No. 8, grabbed the mobile phone from the nightstand, and was about to turn it off when he saw the caller ID was his son, Jiang Zhengqiu's number.

"Why is this kid looking for me while playing? It's really not worry-free even when playing with a woman." After grumbling, Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi finally answered the phone.

As soon as the call connected, Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi's expression changed. He never expected that his son, Jiang Zhengqiu, had actually been arrested by the police.

"Wait for me, I'm coming over right now!"

After hanging up the phone in a rush, Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi immediately prepared to put on his pants and leave.

This made Girl No. 8 and Girl No. 12 anxious. One had to know that their boss had ordered them to serve Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi well. If Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi was satisfied tonight, each of them could get a base salary of fifty thousand. Moreover, every time Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi looked for them in the future, they could get a twenty thousand commission. Now that Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi was leaving, they wouldn't get the money, so how could they not be anxious?

"Mr. Jiang, why are you leaving?"

Both women, without even putting on clothes, got off the bed and tried to keep Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi. "An inch of time is worth an inch of gold. Even if there is something going on, you can handle it tomorrow."

They didn't know that Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi's son, Jiang Zhengqiu, had been arrested by the police. Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi was burning with anxiety, while they just wanted to keep him.

"I have some private matters to handle. I'll come to see you tomorrow." Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi ignored the two women, focused only on getting dressed, and was about to leave.

"Mr. Jiang, just stay. You have such a Divine Ability; whatever the matter is, you can arrange for your subordinates to do it," Girl No. 12 said coquettishly to Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi.

"Get lost! I have urgent business!"

Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi pushed the two girls aside and strode out of the VIP room. The two girls looked at each other, but didn't dare to chase after him.

The reason the sauna center boss had been serving Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi so diligently during this period was because he had something to ask Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi for help with. While Girl No. 8 and Girl No. 12 were serving Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi in the VIP room, he had been waiting outside the whole time.

Therefore, as soon as Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi came out, he saw him.

"Leader, what's wrong?" Seeing Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi come out so quickly and with a sour expression, the sauna center boss immediately went up to meet him and asked respectfully.

"Something came up. I need to go handle it now. I'll talk to you later." Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi didn't even look at the sauna center boss and left quickly.

"Leader…" The sauna center boss was also shocked. He also felt that his two subordinates hadn't served Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi well.

But Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi had already left quickly.

…

In less than twenty minutes, Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi appeared at the Linwu District Police Sub-bureau and barged into the bureau chief's office.

"What is going on here?"

Seeing his son, Jiang Zhengqiu, as well as Li Zhigang both handcuffed, he couldn't help but ask.

He directed this question at Director Sun Yongkang, because Deputy Captain Wu Jianfeng was also handcuffed. He knew that his son's arrest must have been Director Sun Yongkang's idea, not an order from the sub-bureau chief, Chief Wu Kai.

Seeing his father arrive, Jiang Zhengqiu calmed down. His father's influence was not below that of Director Sun Yongkang, and he had a close relationship with the first-ranked Vice Mayor. He feared Director Sun Yongkang wouldn't dare to easily offend their Jiang family, so he lifted his head, which had been lowered, and looked at Zhou Lang with contempt.

Zhou Lang, of course, ignored Jiang Zhengqiu's contemptuous gaze. He knew this arrogant guy was truly done for this time and had no chance to struggle anymore.

"Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi, your son, in collusion with Li Zhigang and Deputy Captain Wu Jianfeng, framed Zhou Lang and Young Miss Li Mengxue. The crime is confirmed, and they must be detained for further investigation."

Director Sun Yongkang roughly explained to Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi what Jiang Zhengqiu had done. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't dare to offend Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi too much, but now he was executing the orders of Feiyun City Secretary Lei Gang, so his backbone was strong. He didn't fear Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi at all. In Feiyun City, Secretary Lei Gang was the number one figure. Who would dare to go against Secretary Lei Gang?

"Chief Sun, my son is ignorant, but fortunately, no major mistake has been made. I'll take him back and teach him a lesson, that should be enough, right?" Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi paused and said, "As for Zhou Lang and Young Miss Li Mengxue, I will have my son and Li Zhigang provide some compensation. What do you think?"

He spoke to Director Sun Yongkang in a negotiating tone, which could be considered giving Director Sun Yongkang some Face. Of course, his arrogance in Feiyun City was well-known. If Director Sun Yongkang didn't give him Face, he would likely turn hostile soon.

"Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi, although this case itself didn't lead to a major disaster, the nature of it is quite vile. Li Zhigang drugged Young Miss Li Mengxue. If it hadn't been for Mr. Zhou Lang's timely intervention, this would have been a rape case. And Jiang Zhengqiu used violence against Mr. Zhou Lang, and afterwards colluded with Deputy Captain Wu Jianfeng to frame Mr. Zhou Lang. The crimes are also quite serious. This case has solid evidence and must be handled impartially."

Director Sun Yongkang withstood the pressure and said. If Secretary Lei Gang hadn't given him that call, he would still be nervous, but now, he didn't hesitate at all.

"Chief Sun, why don't we ask for the opinions of the two victims first? If they are willing to forgive Jiang Zhengqiu and Li Zhigang, why don't you be a good guy?"

Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi's expression shifted, but he quickly returned to normal and then looked at Mr. Zhou Lang and Young Miss Li Mengxue. "I will make a statement here: you can receive two hundred thousand in compensation."

Two hundred thousand was a huge sum for ordinary people. This cunning guy, Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi, believed that offering so much money could settle this matter.

"Mr. Jiang, this seems like you want to settle privately with us? I think it's better to handle it according to the law," Mr. Zhou Lang said lightly, which was equivalent to rejecting Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi's compensation.

"Since that's the case, then I will take the people away. Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi, sorry for making you run for nothing, but don't worry, I will definitely handle it impartially." Director Sun Yongkang knew Mr. Zhou Lang's opinion and said directly to Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi.

"Chief Sun, Mr. Zhou Lang, Young Miss Li Mengxue, none of you are giving me Face. What good will it do you? The law is a very humane thing, not so rigid. I have already shown enough sincerity in this matter. I hope you will reconsider!"

Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi's expression turned gloomy, and he began to threaten them indirectly. He didn't expect Mr. Zhou Lang and Director Sun Yongkang to be so tough, and he felt very unhappy.

"Mr. Jiang, the law emphasizes fairness and that illegal acts must be investigated. It's not about Face. In front of the law, Face is worthless."

Mr. Zhou Lang said coldly.

Jiang Zhengqiu had committed a crime, and Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi, as a father, did not educate his son but instead thought about how to let his son escape legal punishment. Even a blind person could see that such an official was not a good one, so he didn't need to be polite in front of Deputy Minister Jiang Dezhi.

"Take them away!"

Director Sun Yongkang didn't say anything more and directly ordered the arrest of Li Zhigang, Jiang Zhengqiu, and Deputy Captain Wu Jianfeng.

As he was leaving, he said to Chief Wu Kai, "Chief Wu Kai, during this period, you'd better not go on any business trips or anything. You will likely have to accept an investigation by the organization! If you flee, that will be a serious crime."

Soon, Jiang Zhengqiu and the other two were pushed out of the room by Director Sun Yongkang's subordinates. Mr. Zhou Lang, Young Miss Li Mengxue, and Captain Tang Fei also left the bureau chief's office.

Captain Tang Fei seemed to have something to say to Mr. Zhou Lang, but seeing Mr. Zhou Lang, Young Miss Li Mengxue, and Director Sun Yongkang walking side by side, she didn't say anything. She just assisted Director Sun Yongkang's subordinates in escorting Jiang Zhengqiu and the other two to the police car.

"Mr. Zhou Lang, Young Miss Li Mengxue, scum like Deputy Captain Wu Jianfeng appeared inside our police System, causing you suffering. On behalf of the police, I apologize to you," Director Sun Yongkang said to Mr. Zhou Lang and Young Miss Li Mengxue. "I will arrange a car to send you back."

Secretary Lei Gang valued Mr. Zhou Lang so much; he knew Mr. Zhou Lang was probably not simple, especially that calm demeanor on Mr. Zhou Lang, which made him believe Mr. Zhou Lang was a Dragon among men. For such a person, he naturally wanted to make friends.

"Director Sun Yongkang, you go ahead and get busy. We can go back by ourselves," Mr. Zhou Lang smiled slightly and said.

"Alright then." Director Sun Yongkang nodded. In his heart, he was actually very surprised about what kind of relationship Mr. Zhou Lang had with Secretary Lei Gang. For a moment, his mind wandered; he really couldn't figure out which big shot's Young Master Mr. Zhou Lang was.

"Bureau Chief, if there is nothing else, I will leave too." Just as he was wandering, the Tyrannosaurus Policewoman, Captain Tang Fei, walked in front of him.

"Okay, Captain Tang Fei, you performed meritorious service today. You are a young person with principles, and your future is limitless."

Director Sun Yongkang praised Captain Tang Fei. He knew that if it weren't for Captain Tang Fei letting Mr. Zhou Lang make that call to Secretary Lei Gang, this case might have really turned into a miscarriage of justice today.

Soon, Director Sun Yongkang left with his subordinates, and Mr. Zhou Lang and Young Miss Li Mengxue also got into a taxi.

However, Captain Tang Fei was watching Mr. Zhou Lang leave.

"Mr. Zhou Lang, although your background is not small, you teased me today, and I will definitely not be done with you," Captain Tang Fei muttered as Mr. Zhou Lang got into the taxi. She only left after the car carrying Mr. Zhou Lang and Young Miss Li Mengxue disappeared into the night.
