"I reserve my opinion and will report it to my superiors."
Du Wanzhe was not convinced at all. He kept staring at Sun Yue's eyes, said something unsatisfactorily, turned around and left the award ceremony, heading towards the police station.
All eyes turned to the bureau chief on the stage again, and no one dared to leave until the bureau chief spoke.
"Let's disperse!"
What should have been a happy occasion turned into a source of frustration for Lao He, who felt ruined by this rotten apple. He waved his hand and said...
After saying that, he walked towards the police station. Sun Yue looked at the people present and followed the chief out.
"Close the door!"
After arriving at his office, Director He put his hat on the coat rack and angrily said to Sun Yue while taking off his coat.
"Director, please calm down."
After closing the door, Sun Yue quickly poured a glass of water and handed it to the bureau chief.
"How could I possibly calm down, you little bastard! You actually embarrassed me right there in front of everyone!"
Director He took the water glass, took a sip, and, remembering Du Wanzhe's appearance earlier, began to loudly curse.
"Okay, it's not good if others hear this."
Hearing Director He speak so loudly, they quickly stopped him and said something to him.
The police officers passing by the door heard noises coming from the chief's office, but they couldn't make out what was being said through the door.
“You need to be careful in the interrogation department from now on. I’ve looked into this Du Wanzhe, and he’s a mad dog who bites people indiscriminately.”
Director He looked at Sun Yue, then spoke to her with a somewhat serious expression.
“I don’t go to the interrogation department often, and when I do go, it’s usually to see my master. What’s the background of this Du Wanzhe?”
Seeing that even the bureau chief dared to talk back, and noticing the serious expression on Director He's face, she asked Director He in confusion.
"He's a loner who doesn't like to socialize and spends all his time working. It's normal that you haven't met him. If it weren't for his personality, he would be the head of the interrogation department. His mother's surname is Nangong."
When Sun Yue asked him a question, he took out a cigarette and lit it, then told Sun Yue about Du Wanzhe's situation.
"His surname is Nangong, so he is a member of the Nangong family."
Upon hearing that Du Wanzhe's mother was Nangong, Sun Yue's eyes widened, and she exclaimed in surprise.
I never imagined that such a small police station could harbor so many powerful and capable individuals.
"It's just a branch of the Nangong family, nothing to worry about. When the Nangong family first learned that Du Wanzhe had entered the police station, they started to pave the way for him in secret. But you've seen Du Wanzhe's personality; he's unwilling to get too close to the Nangong family. So the Nangong family stopped supporting him. But they're all known for protecting their own, so I don't want to bother with him."
Mentioning Du Wanzhe gives me a headache; he's a weirdo in the whole police station. He said to Sun Yue with a hint of helplessness.
"This Du Wanzhe is quite interesting."
After listening to what Director He said, Sun Yue also admired Du Wanzhe from the bottom of her heart. She no longer had the great hostility she had before. She felt that the other party was someone who would strive for success through his own efforts, not the kind of person who would submit to power. She also understood why her mentor had chosen him to be the deputy section chief.
"It makes me happy to see Sun Yue get his comeuppance."
Liu Zheng followed Sun Dahai into the office. Once inside, Liu Zheng couldn't hold back any longer and quickly closed the door, smiling as he spoke to Sun Dahai.
"What's there to be happy about in getting the short end of the stick? He's a section chief now, and you're still just a team leader. You don't even have the foresight to think things through!"
Seeing Liu Zheng's gloating expression, Sun Dahai felt speechless and rolled his eyes at Liu Zheng.
"Yeah! I still had a chance to try, but now he's already taken the position. All our previous efforts have gone down the drain."
Upon hearing Sun Dahai mention that Sun Yue had become a section chief, Liu Zheng, who had been happy, suddenly turned pale and sat down on the sofa with a dejected expression.
"Just stay put for now. We can talk about the promotion later."
Seeing Liu Zheng get discouraged after a little setback, Sun Dahai began to miss his apprentice Du Feng.
However, there was nothing they could do. In order to avoid implicating him, they arranged for him to be sent to the grassroots level. Sun Dahai said helplessly about Liu Zheng.
"Isn't there any other way? If I can't get the position, I can't let Sun Yue be comfortable in it either."
During the days Liu Zheng had been following Sun Dahai, his mindset had gradually changed. He suddenly sat up and looked at Sun Dahai with a sinister gaze, asking a question.
"This method exists, but isn't it a bad idea to do it this way?"
Sun Dahai was secretly pleased to see Liu Zheng gradually losing his principles; if things continued this way, he wouldn't be far from controlling him. He then feigned embarrassment and said to Liu Zheng...
"Captain, you and Sun Yue are like oil and water, why are you still worried about this? Now that we've made him a section chief, we're the ones who will suffer in the future."
Seeing Sun Dahai's expression, Liu Zheng hurriedly walked over and explained the pros and cons to him.
"Okay, go and find Du Wanzhe later. If he can stand on our side, then even if Sun Yue is the section chief, it won't make a difference."
Hearing Liu Zheng's words, Sun Dahai was also very happy. This was like having a powerful subordinate. He then told Liu Zheng his idea.
“But that Du Wanzhe is completely unyielding! He even dared to go against the director just now. If he gets out of our control and tells others about our dealings with Sun Yue, then we'll be in a very difficult position.”
Upon hearing that Sun Dahai intended to use Du Wanzhe to deal with Sun Yue, Liu Zheng recalled Du Wanzhe's appearance outside earlier and said to Sun Dahai with some concern.
"This Du Wanzhe is no ordinary person!"
Sun Dahai smiled, knowing that Liu Zheng had underestimated Du Wanzhe, and then, with the same solemn expression as Director He, he said to Liu Zheng.
"Not simple? He must have some big shot backing him, otherwise who would dare to embarrass the bureau chief in public?"
Upon hearing what Sun Dahai said, Liu Zheng quickly came over and whispered to Sun Dahai, "What do you mean?"
"He has no powerful backing; he's from a collateral branch of the Nangong family."
Sun Dahai told Liu Zheng about Du Wanzhe's identity.
"Is Du Wanzhe out of his mind? The Nangong family gives him resources, but he doesn't cherish them. If the Nangong family supported me, I might have become a section chief long ago."
After listening to Sun Dahai's words, he realized that Du Wanzhe was wasting resources in such a way, and said in disbelief.
"That's why I look down on him, but if we want to deal with Sun Yue, Du Wanzhe had better be on my side, otherwise it will be very dangerous."
Sun Dahai didn't want to provoke someone like Du Wanzhe, and said solemnly to Liu Zheng.
