In the end, Minister Li had no choice but to appease Sun Zhengguo, telling him not to act rashly and to wait for his instructions.
After the two hung up the phone, Minister Li rubbed his throbbing temples, feeling extremely worried.
He is now in a dilemma.
Sun Zhengguo's meaning was crystal clear: he was leaving the choice to the higher authorities.
You should know that this is a major taboo. No matter how capable you are, you cannot use such words to threaten someone.
"Sigh! How did things come to this? Why did it all happen?"
Minister Li closed his eyes in anguish.
Without hesitation, he picked up the red hotline and dialed the superior department…
Ultimately, the outcome is up to fate and will be decided by the power struggles among those at the highest levels.
...
After returning to work in the afternoon, Sun Zhengguo made a special trip to the solitary confinement room to see what state Huang Er and the others were in now.
Huang Er, who had arrived in high spirits, was now bruised and battered, sitting dejectedly on the ground.
He is now unable to move his legs, and his entire body is in excruciating pain.
However, these pains are nothing now, because in the afternoon, he could no longer withstand the beatings and signed the confession.
Forced into a corner, he admitted that he was an enemy agent and that his purpose in coming here was to cause sabotage.
He, who was always playing pranks on others, finally got pranked himself this time and experienced what it meant to be tortured into confessing.
Although he is in great pain, he firmly believes that the people above will come to save him, and he will repay Sun Zhengguo for all this suffering.
Just as Huang Er was lost in thought, Sun Zhengguo walked in, a victor's posture on his face.
As the saying goes, enemies are especially hostile when they meet, and Huang Er was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"What are you doing here? Are you here to laugh at me? Sun Zhengguo, let me tell you, you've been tortured into confessing. Just wait! My superiors will not let you get away with this."
"Heh!" Sun Zhengguo scoffed.
"Huang Er, seeing you like this puts my mind at ease. I'll tell you quietly, no matter what the higher-ups decide, you must die. I'm telling you, even the Jade Emperor can't save you."
What do you mean by that?
Huang Er stared wide-eyed, still not understanding where Sun Zhengguo's confidence came from.
"If you still don't understand, you shouldn't have provoked me. Just enjoy the rest of your time!"
Sun Zhengguo didn't want to waste any more words, so he left after saying that and walked outside.
After all, it's pointless for a dying person to say anything.
He came over just to check, and seeing that Huang Er was in a terrible state, he felt relieved.
"Don't go, explain yourself..."
Huang Er was still shouting, but no one paid any attention to him.
Gradually, he finally understood what Sun Zhengguo meant. It was actually quite obvious.
Even if his superiors order him to be released, Sun Zhengguo will still kill him. It's that simple.
"Why is this happening?" Huang Er trembled all over, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
He's really scared now, he regrets coming, he really regrets coming!
...
Inside the courtyard house.
Starting in the afternoon, explosive news broke: Sun Zhengguo had clashed with his henchmen and shot and injured someone.
Who are these capable men now? Everyone knows.
That was someone you couldn't afford to mess with, and the neighbors never expected that Sun Zhengguo would dare to provoke him.
Therefore, everyone is waiting to see the joke!
As evening approached, Sun Dajiang, looking worried, hurriedly rode his bicycle home.
Today, my son has made such a big fuss that almost everyone in the prominent positions in various organizations has heard about it, but no one knows the specific details.
Before long, Lin Wencui also rushed home in a hurry, her lips were covered in blisters from anxiety.
"Dajiang, I hope Zhengguo won't get into trouble this time. Why did he have to provoke those people?"
"Honey, don't worry. We need to trust our son. Look, he's doing just fine now!"
Sun Dajiang wasn't entirely sure himself, but he had to be strong in front of his family.
The couple didn't chat much or cook; instead, they went straight to their son's house.
When the neighbors saw Sun Dajiang and his wife pushing their cart out, only a very few people greeted them; the rest simply ignored them.
Because they were prepared to watch the show, wanting to see exactly how the Sun family would collapse.
After all, from the moment the winds began to blow, going against those ruthless individuals never ended well.
Therefore, they don't need to fawn over someone who doesn't reciprocate their kindness.
Sun Dajiang looked at these people's faces, but didn't bother to argue with them; instead, he silently kept it in mind...
When the couple hurriedly arrived at the courtyard, they found that quite a few people had already gathered there, all of them members of the Sun family and relatives.
Everyone looked worried, except for Sun Zhengguo, who was still carefree and telling everyone not to worry.
"Mom and Dad, I knew you were coming, so I made dinner for you tonight. Please eat before you leave."
Seeing his son's indifferent expression, Sun Dajiang didn't know what to say, and swallowed back any words of comfort.
Lin Wencui didn't care about anything else and asked immediately, "Son, tell me the truth, can you get through this? If it really doesn't work out, then we'll do what the Lou family did..."
Before Lin Wencui could finish speaking, Sun Dajiang covered her mouth.
“Wen Cui, don’t talk nonsense, and don’t cause trouble for our son. No matter what happens, we’ll face it together.”
Seeing his parents' attitude, Sun Zhengguo felt relieved.
At least there weren't any melodramatic plot twists, like drawing a line or severing ties with the father.
In fact, the moment he took action, he had already made the worst-case scenario plan.
At worst, I can expose the space, put my whole family inside, and take them to Hong Kong Island for a carefree time.
With his abilities, I believe no one can stop him.
Of course, this is the worst-case scenario. If the higher authorities can protect him, he will definitely stay and continue to contribute.
In fact, Sun Zhengguo was unaware that this afternoon, those who had once had close relationships with him were all paying close attention to this matter.
In particular, several people, led by Vice Minister Bai, also stepped forward to report the matter to higher authorities.
They said Sun Zhengguo did the right thing this time and demanded that the thugs Huang Er and others be severely punished.
Ning Dazhuang, the brother-in-law, even begged Commander Zhang and Political Commissar Yang to put in a good word for them when they met the two men.
What Sun Zhengguo was unaware of was that, after a power struggle between the two sides' high-level officials, the matter had reached the person in question.
Ultimately, it will be up to him to decide how this matter is characterized; everyone understands.
This incident may seem small, but its impact is far-reaching.
If Huang Er wins in the end, it will disappoint a large number of people, and Sun Zhengguo will leave for distant lands.
If Sun Zhengguo ultimately wins, then no one will dare to mess with him in the future, and he will become synonymous with stubbornness.
Everyone is watching with bated breath!
