Chapter 71: Bai 㫅's Outburst
In the study, Bai Shaofeng smashed his fist hard on the documents, breaking the pen into two pieces.
The person on the other end of the phone apparently sensed his anger and tried to persuade him.
"Shao Feng, I know you feel bad for Qiao Qiao. As her uncle, I feel bad for her too, but you also know that this is a critical moment. The more Qiao Qiao stands out, the more dangerous she will be. So first..."
Bai Shaofeng closed his red eyes, raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose hard, and suddenly his voice became hoarse.
"Zhao Cheng."
The person on the other side paused and sighed, "Shao Feng, I know..."
"Five years."
The voice from the other end suddenly stopped, leaving behind a dead silence.
Bai Shaofeng opened his bloodshot eyes and asked, "Do you know what five years means to a girl?"
The other side remained silent.
Bai Shaofeng took a deep breath and raised his head.
"Back then, because you said you put the interests of the general public first, I watched helplessly as my daughter was sent to the countryside as a hostage, which directly ruined her future. And because you said you put the interests of the general public first, I watched helplessly as she got married and entered a family like that, which ruined her marriage. Now, you want to put the interests of the general public first again, and let her ruin her hard-earned career again..."
'No, Shao Feng, listen...'
"Zhao Cheng! Director Zhao! I know that as a public servant, I must put the people first and the interests of the country first, but I am also a flesh-and-blood person, and I am also a father. Year after year, do you know how I have survived these years? Do you know how I feel when I see Shiyun and the others suffer every day but cannot say it?"
There was silence for a long time on the other side, and the room fell into a long silence, making the rapid breathing and panting particularly obvious.
After a long time, a deep sigh came from the other side.
'Shao Feng, I know your difficulties, and I also know that Qiao Qiao has been wronged and suffered. The country will not treat her unfairly. It's just that now it has really come to a critical moment. We have been guarding for so many years, and we can't let it go at the last minute. '
Bai Shaofeng took a deep breath and raised his head again. His Adam's apple rolled for a long time before he spoke in a hoarse voice, "Zhao Cheng, I trust you, so I will wait until tomorrow. But I don't want to wait for a dead body one day. I tell you, I will not interfere in this matter, and you are not allowed to interfere. She fought for the opportunity herself, and no one can take it away. Also, I will give you a time limit, one year at the latest. If you still can't let the big fish get out of the net, then I will do it. Even if I don't have to sit on this chair, I will fight him."
"No, Shao..."
With a "bang", the call was hung up.
Bai Shaofeng slammed the table hard again. The veins on his arms bulged, showing that he was in a restless mood at the moment.
He reached out and opened the drawer, took out a bottle of medicine, opened it with trembling hands, poured out two pills, tilted his head back and swallowed them.
Then he leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes and recovered for a while, and his breathing gradually became even and steady.
After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling intently. After staring for a while, he sat up straight again and looked down at the documents on the table.
Looking at the documents about his daughter's recent situation, when he saw that she was recruited into the textile factory as an exception and might become the deputy director of a department, his eyes gradually softened and pride surged in his eyes.
This is Bai Shaofeng's daughter, who can get up even in the quagmire or adversity.
But whenever he thought of the dangers surrounding her at the moment, his heart began to ache again.
He pursed his lips and pulled out another piece of information, which was about Zhao Sihai's recent situation.
Although she was very unhappy about her daughter's arranged marriage, after several years of testing and observation, she felt that at least this man was not bad.
Otherwise, he wouldn't wait until now to explode.
But, we can’t wait any longer…
He stared at Zhao Sihai's name with a gloomy look in his eyes.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
