Time seemed to stand still for two seconds as the two looked at each other, and the air around them seemed to freeze, with a suffocating silence. But soon, under the urging of the Discipline Inspection Commission staff, the two were pulled back to reality at the same time.
Even a department-level boss like Wu Chengzhu seemed so powerless when facing an investigation by the Commission for Discipline Inspection.
At this moment, he was like a leaf falling in the wind, and could only follow the direction of the wind involuntarily. His former majesty and control seemed to be shrouded by an invisible haze and dissipated completely.
The elevator door slowly closed, separating him from the depressing third floor. He prepared to leave the Provincial Public Security Bureau without looking back, trying to get rid of this suffocating atmosphere as soon as possible and find the dawn of hope for a breakthrough.
However, just at the entrance of the hall, fate seemed to play a joke on him again, and he met a person of the same level as Wu Chengzhu.
Just as the two passed each other, the man suddenly turned around and said to Li Lin's back, "Are you Li Lin? I was wondering why you looked so familiar!" There was a hint of surprise and inquiry in his voice, echoing in the empty hall.
Li Lin turned around in surprise, his eyes fell on the tall and thin man in front of him. He subconsciously glanced at his epaulettes and found that he was at the same level as Wu Chengzhu.
Although he looked familiar, Li Lin quickly searched his memory, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.
He had no intention of talking to this person. He just nodded slightly at him and said "hello" out of basic courtesy, then planned to turn around and leave. At the moment, he was full of anxiety and just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible to plan his next move.
However, his action seemed to offend the authority of the tall and thin man. The man stared at Li Lin's departing back with an unhappy look on his face, a scornful smile on the corner of his mouth. That smile was like a sharp blade, bitingly cold. He said, "Hey, wait a minute! Are you here to see Director Wu? Have you seen him?" There was an obvious provocation in his words, breaking the original tranquility of the hall.
Li Lin stopped again, turned around slowly, frowned slightly, looked at the tall and thin man with puzzled eyes.
I thought that everyone in the provincial department knew that Director Wu was being investigated by the Commission for Discipline Inspection, but this person asked if he had seen anyone? What was he thinking? A trace of vigilance flashed in Li Lin's eyes, and he looked at the other person calmly.
But soon, Li Lin saw the clue from the tall and thin man's malicious smile.
This is a mockery of him!
Li Lin felt a surge of anger in his heart, his brows furrowed even tighter, and he said coldly, "We don't seem to know each other? What do you want to say?" His voice was low and cold, with an inviolable aura, trying to intimidate the other party.
"Oh, you're just a small department-level cadre, but you have such a bad temper! I'm the deputy director of a provincial department, and I called you to talk to you for a few words. That was to give you face, but you don't appreciate it? Ha, you have personality!" Wang Qirui looked Li Lin up and down slowly, his eyes full of contempt and arrogance, and spoke in a sarcastic tone, as if he was looking at a little person who was inferior to him, wantonly trampling on the dignity of others.
"If you have nothing to do, I'll leave first!" Li Lin was disgusted by the way Wang Qirui looked at him, and felt extremely disgusted in his heart, but he couldn't figure out who he was and what his relationship with Wu Chengzhu was, so he suppressed his impatience and spoke to him while trying his best to control his emotions.
Although his tone was a bit cold, he had already been very restrained. If he met someone who spoke to him in such a sarcastic tone somewhere else, he would respond mercilessly with a "get out"!
Wang Qirui put his hands behind his back and took two big steps towards Li Lin. He still had a contemptuous smile on his face, which became more and more glaring, and said, "My surname is Wang, and I'm a good colleague of Director Wu, hehe... a very good colleague... I just want to tell you that he made a mistake and is being investigated by the Yanjing Discipline Inspection Commission. I guess you won't see him in the provincial department in the future. If there is anything, I can help you..." His words were full of the boasting of a villain who had succeeded, as if he was announcing that he was about to take control of the power, and from now on this provincial department would be his world.
This tone really deserves a beating!
Li Lin finally couldn't help but frowned and said, "Deputy Director Wang, right? I was wondering why you were so high-profile when Director Wu was here? Why did you come out so suddenly after he left? To be honest, you can't help me with my affairs!"
Li Lin raised his voice a few notches, his eyes full of disdain. He would never allow this man to be so arrogant in front of him, wantonly trampling on Wu Chengzhu and trying to humiliate him.
After saying that, Li Lin glared at Wang Qirui fiercely, turned around and strode out of the hall. Every step he took was filled with anger and determination, and his back revealed a stubbornness.
Originally, Wang Qirui wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate Li Lin.
Although Li Lin didn't know him, he was impressed by Li Lin.
Especially during the process of arresting Lu Yuanfeng, Li Lin was able to show off his fame in front of all the leaders, and Wu Chengzhu even made the decision on his own and gave Li Lin the identity of a "special commissioner", which shows how much Wu Chengzhu cares about Li Lin!
Since you are in cahoots with Wu Chengzhu and are also Lu Chengze's enemy, I'm sorry, but I, Wang Qirui, will not let go of any opportunity to step on you. Today is just the beginning. From now on, I will make sure that Li Lin will never be able to enter the gate of the provincial department!
He seemed to want to return all the oppression and pain that Wu Chengzhu had inflicted on him to the people around Wu Chengzhu twice as much. Only by doing so could he experience the pleasure of revenge. His twisted psychology was fully exposed at this moment.
