Chapter 72 Lu Qian wants to see Jian Ruochen

Li Maoying said: "Once you sign the contract, the Hong Kong British faction that wants to split will definitely target you."

His heart was in turmoil.

A man who is almost fifty years old was confused by the young man who did not play by the rules, and he suddenly felt a little guilty.

Le Jinwen refilled Li Maoming's glass of red wine, "5.9 billion. What? Do you think our police station is a money-printing machine?"

Li Maoming laughed dryly: "Haha. Of course not, how could that be possible?"

He raised his glass and took a sip of wine, savoring Le Jinwen's words.

Yige changed the subject from Jian Ruochen to the police station, and the meaning was very clear, he wanted to protect Jian Ruochen.

Le Jinwen smiled and said, "Do you mind if I take a look at the contract?"

Li Maoming: "Please."

Jian Ruochen responded by releasing his hand that was holding down the contract.

Le Jinwen raised his hand and flipped through it.

The terms are quite practical, and the funds required are not particularly large.

It’s just that Jian Ruochen is young, so it seems like he is bullying others.

In fact, as early as 1988, British Hong Kong businessmen saw the development prospects of the mainland and invested a large amount of capital in Guangdong Province.

In comparison, 5.9 billion is nothing.

Le Jinwen took out the pen from his suit pocket, pressed it on the contract and handed it back. "Not bad, sign it. The progress of the project is entirely in your hands."

Jian Ruochen signed his name without hesitation.

Li Maoming breathed a sigh of relief.

The eldest brother was very imposing, and his nephew and wife were no less so. God knows how nervous he was when the only sound of the contract flipping on the table was just now.

Jian Ruochen sat in the middle of the family, looking clean and amiable, and seemingly harmless, which made her seem a little out of place.

After Jian Ruochen signed his name, he raised his eyes and smiled, "Mr. Li can rest assured now, right? Why don't we talk about business?"

It would be good to be able to invest in promising projects, but he is now on the side of the Hong Kong police.

Appropriate concessions can be made during negotiations, but Commissioner Le and the Kowloon Regional Police Station must not be made difficult.

"Mr. Li." Jian Ruochen picked up the wine glass on the table and saluted Li Maoming from a distance. "I know that the mainland must want to use this videotape to replace the drug addicts in the Hong Kong British government and insert a group of their own people."

"I have no objection to the replacement of political officials, but after this incident, the Kowloon Region has become the outcast. I don't mind the British targeting me, but what about the other police officers?"

Li Maoming: ...

He wanted to take back what he had said about Jian Ruochen's conspiracy!

Jian Ruochen smiled and said softly, "Mr. Li should also consider the difficulties of our Kowloon Regional Police Station. Kowloon is so poor now..."

Li Maoming was sweating as he held the newly signed 5.9 billion contract in his hand.

Hong Kong just gets hot quickly.

The winter is very short and the spring is hotter than other places.

As soon as he started talking to Jian Ruochen, he became even hotter.

How can someone who just spent 5.9 billion feel so at ease crying poor for others?

Jian Ruochen said, "But I am just suggesting that if it embarrasses Mr. Li, then I will apologize first. After all, I haven't even graduated from college and I'm still a non-staff member. Good things like salary increase and funding will not fall on me."

Li Maoming took a breath.

What a good move of retreating to advance!

He raised his glass and clinked it with Jian Ruochen's. "The Regional Police Station is all about getting down to business. The higher-ups will definitely take it seriously. I'll bring it up."

The glasses made a pleasant clinking sound.

Jian Ruochen smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Whether there is additional sponsorship or not, whether it is a videotape or a mainland project, we will do it as usual, and STN News will also fully cooperate with the mainland official media in reporting."

“The truth is what matters.”

Guan Yingjun looked at Jian Ruochen, lowered his eyes, picked some shrimps and put them in a bowl to peel them.

The corners of his lips curled up.

Jian Ruochen was so confident of victory and looked so high-spirited, like a pearl destined to shine.

Li Maoming was a little dizzy.

He drank the red wine in one gulp, "I believe you."

He invested 5.9 billion as soon as he said so. What's wrong with him finding a strong backer for West Kowloon? It's his duty!

The temptation is over.

Guan Yingjun spoke up and got straight to the point: "The release of the videotape cannot be delayed any longer. The British Hong Kong government has its own information channels. If time passes, a lot of evidence will be disposed of, and they may even find an excuse to kill Lu Qian, so it's best to release the videotape within 36 hours."

He glanced at his watch. "It's been 10 hours since we got the tape. There are 26 hours left."

Li Maoming shuddered.

Time is running out.

Guan Yingjun ignored Le Jinwen's glance and said bluntly, "The Central Bureau should not test the position of our consultant here."

"Why not send more people to help the Kowloon Region collect evidence of Lu Qian's crimes, prepare a prosecution report before the videotape is released, and prosecute Lu Qian before the Hong Kong politicians can respond. What do you think?"

Li Maoming didn't have a chance to speak at all.

Guan Yingjun handed over a file on Lu Qian's case, "Mr. Li, we are still lacking evidence of Lu Qian's drug trafficking."

Li Maoming had no choice but to follow the pace of Jian Ruochen and Guan Yingjun and said, "Just do your work, I'll figure out the rest."

Jian Ruochen listened with his ears perked up while he opened the crab and ate it.

Chen Yunchuan lowered his eyes and smiled, then asked in a low voice, "Is it so delicious? It seems my cooking skills are pretty good."

Jian Ruochen praised: "This table was prepared by Officer Chen? Great."

"I only steamed the crabs. Director Le did the rest."

Chen Yunchuan lowered his voice and asked inquiringly, "Guan Yingjun and Le Jinwen made a batch of candy some time ago, and he specially ground vitamin powder and mixed it with lemon powder. Do you know who he gave it to? Is he pursuing someone?"

Jian Ruochen suddenly bit the tip of his tongue and hissed in pain, "Sir Guan can also make candy..."

Chen Yunchuan: …

What Le Jinwen told her turned out to be true. He really likes Jian Ruochen.

Sure enough, he gave the candy to Jian Ruochen.

But...it's not without trace.

When Jian Ruochen picked up the second crab and was about to eat it, the bowl was taken away by Guan Yingjun beside him and replaced with a bowl of peeled shrimps dipped in sweet and sour sauce with toothpicks stuck on the side.

Jian Ruochen picked up one and put it in his mouth, and tasted the scent of grapefruit vinegar.

Quite delicious.

The dinner at Li Jin International Garden was a joyful occasion.

Kowloon Regional Police Station.

Inside the detention center.

Lu Qian sat on the one-person-wide bed in the single cubicle, digesting the curry, potatoes, peanuts and a pair of braised chicken wings he had swallowed that night.

He had never eaten anything so bad in his life.

It's bland, soft, shabby and disgusting.

The slap that Jian Ruochen slapped on his face, along with the entire meal, knocked his dignity into the mud.

What is even more frightening is that Liao Yanchou was arrested.

Lu Qian tightly grasped the cold bed rails and looked at the washbasin and toilet in the room.

This is simply where livestock live.

He hated Liao Yanchou for not being able to escape the police.

He hated Guan Yingjun, hated Lu Jingchen who never showed up, Jiang Hanyu who didn't care, Lu Rong who sat on the mountain and watched the fight, and hated Jian Ruochen who brought him in.

Damn them all!

Lu Qian walked to the sink and looked at his haggard and angry face in the mirror.

He was unwilling to let it end like this. He had been fighting with the Kowloon Regional Police Station for so many years, but in the end he was defeated by the person he used to look down upon the most.

Lu Qian felt a little regretful again. If he had chosen Jian Ruochen back then, would everything be different?

As he thought about this, he couldn't even remember how much he loved Jiang Hanyu.

Jiang Hanyu is not as rich as Jian Ruochen.

Not as smart as Jian Ruochen.

No one can act as well as Jian Ruochen.

Not as useful as Jian Ruochen.

Not even as much as Jian Ruochen loved him before.

Lu Qian washed his face with water, took off the engagement ring on his middle finger, and threw it on the sink with a slight "ding" sound.

He wants to take a gamble.

·

The next day.

Jian Ruochen put the investment contract worth 5.9 billion yuan on Luo Binwen's desk and went to school at a brisk pace.

After the dinner yesterday, the videotape was burned into several copies, one was taken back to the mainland by Li Maoming overnight, and the other was sent to the STN News Department.

Tonight at 18:30, prime time.

This news will be broadcast simultaneously by STN News Department and the mainland evening news official media.

6:20 pm.

After a day of classes, Jian Ruochen rushed to the police station.

He threw his schoolbag on the sofa in the A team's living room and turned to look at Zhang Xingzong, "How is the case going?"

"Everyone except us from the Federation worked overtime last night, wow!" Zhang Xingzong looked gossipy, "You wouldn't know if you didn't check... All the bathing centers under Lu Qian's name are involved in pornography. The special police department arrested 300 men and women, and they are still taking statements."

"He also evaded taxes. That karaoke bar is even more bizarre. It doesn't even have a fire license. It's full of losers who are chasing after the dragon. Tsk tsk tsk, it's crazy..."

Ding held up a Hong Kong-style grilled sausage and ate it while saying, "Liu Sir from the ICAC has not slept for 36 hours. There is no way he can finish the investigation."

He picked up the oil-paper package and asked, "Do you want to eat it?"

Zhang Xingzong stretched out his hand: "Eat."

Jian Ruochen looked back and saw that the door of Guan Yingjun's office was closed, so he said, "Give me one."

Zhang Xingzong smiled, "Why are you doing this secretly? Are you afraid that Sir Guan will find out when you eat this? He won't care."

"Sir Guan took me to see a doctor the other day, and the doctor told me not to eat this kind of food." Jian Ruochen took a bite of the sausage, which was so fragrant, "What is it made of? So juicy."

"Salmon and grilled sausages." Ding Gao whispered, "Follow the doctor's orders. I won't bring them anymore."

Jian Ruochen uttered "Oh".

There was no expression on his face.

But Zhang Xingzong just felt that their consultant seemed a little aggrieved.

He changed the subject, "The video will be aired soon, do you want to go and watch it?"

Just as Jian Ruochen was about to speak, Bi Wanwan came in from the door and said, "It smells good."

Ding Gao said: "The sausages are on the table, take them yourself."

Bi Qianqian took one and said, "Sir Guan asked me to come here and tell him that Lu Qian wants to see Jian Ruochen. He said he won't speak until he meets Jian Ruochen."

Jian Ruochen asked: "Where is he?"

Ding Gao said, "Interrogation room. We have been interrogating him for a day, but he is so stubborn that he won't say a word."

"I'll go and take a look."

Jian Ruochen threw away the bamboo stick in his hand, walked slowly to the interrogation room, opened the door and went in.

After just one day of not seeing each other, Lu Qian looked so haggard that he no longer looked like a human.

His neatly pressed suit, shirt and waistcoat were wrinkled and stuck to his body. Without the restraint of hairspray, the hair on my forehead fell down, sticking into messy strands.

Guan Yingjun sat in front of Lu Qian with his arms folded, then turned to look at Jian Ruochen, "Are you here?"

"Yeah." Jian Ruochen pulled the chair next to him and sat down, looking up at Lu Qian opposite him, "I heard that you want to speak after seeing me, what's the matter?"

Lu Qian raised his eyes, carefully tracing Jian Ruochen's cold eyebrows, his breathing gradually became rapid, and he said in a hoarse voice: "In fact, there is no drug leader at all. The person in the 1892 bar that day was Guan Yingjun. You sang the same tune to deceive me, right?"

Jian Ruochen raised his eyebrows, "What does it have to do with you?"

I thought Lu Qian wanted to repent and admit his mistake, and finally leave with a good reputation.

It doesn't seem so now.

He covets human power.

Lu Qian took a quick breath and yelled without warning, "These police are using you! They're using you to arrest me!"

He struggled violently, and the handcuffs on his wrists made sharp clanging sounds. "Guan Yingjun is taking advantage of your feelings!"

Jian Ruochen curled his lips incredulously, "What did you say?"

Crazy, it's so outrageous?

He smiled and said, "Go on."

Lu Qian clenched his fists tightly, "The person you liked before was me! I don't believe you have no feelings for me at all!"

Jian Ruochen stared at him and couldn't help laughing, "Haha."

"The way your eyes wandered when you said this to me shows that you have no confidence in your words and you are just acting according to the situation."

"Although you were very polite when you spoke, the corner of your mouth was slightly turned down and the muscles under your eyes were tense. This shows that you are disdainful of me."

Jian Ruochen said meaningfully: "It's been three months, and you haven't made any progress in acting out sad dramas. You always make the same mistakes."

Lu Qian said hysterically: "You no longer believe anything I say, right? I was deceived by Jiang Hanyu. I don't love him at all. I like you."

He stared at the person in front of him fiercely, "You were fucked by him, weren't you?"

Guan Yingjun didn't like people using such a frivolous tone and dirty words to slander Jian Ruochen.

He stood up suddenly and kicked the edge of the interrogation table.

squeak!

The steel table suddenly moved forward quickly, with a sharp and piercing sound, and hit Lu Qian's abdomen directly.

"vomit--"

Lu Qian retched and slid off the chair, kneeling on the ground gasping for breath in pain, with a taste of rust in his throat.

No, no…

He had to get out of the police station before the videotape leaked by Liao Yanchou was released.

Otherwise you will never be able to get out.

He will die here!

Lu Qian finally felt the overwhelming fear, and Jian Ruochen's indifference shattered the last bit of his sanity.

The man who used to be so handsome and calm crawled to Jian Ruochen's front and knelt down in a very embarrassed manner.

He couldn't even breathe.

Shame, resentment, shame, and nausea came one after another.

Jian Ruochen looked at it, but he found no regret.

Lu Qian just wanted to avoid punishment and he didn't admit his mistake at all.

Lu Qian choked up and said, "Please forgive me once, okay? It's you I love!"

"No, you are selfish and lawless. You don't love anyone but yourself." Jian Ruochen looked up at the clock. "It's half past six."

He turned to Guan Yingjun, whose eyes were stern, and said, "Sir Guan, did you bring your portable TV with you to tell our President Lu about the news?"

Guan Yingjun looked gloomy. He lowered his eyes and turned the button, hitting Lu Qian, "Look."

Jian Ruochen looked at Lu Qian and said, "Stop your disgusting performance."

"How could I dislike the police and like the criminals?"

"Tuk-tuk"

There was a knock on the door of the interrogation room.

Bi Wanwan brought in a faxed document: "The Interpol Central Bureau sent over a document that is evidence of Lu Qian smuggling drugs in the mainland. It was obtained from the mainland customs."

She really couldn't understand it.

It turns out that a videotape can actually drag the Interpol Central Bureau into the game?

Jian Ruochen is really smart and decisive, and dares to think and act.

They finally found the breakthrough.
