"Okay, I know. This will teach him a lesson!"
Gao Qiqiang nodded and hurriedly went to find An Xin and Li Xiang.
Whether Tang Ping's warning was heeded or not, nobody knows.
When Tang Ping went downstairs, he originally planned to chat with Gao Qilan for a while longer, but when he knocked on the door, Gao Qilan's voice came out: "Who is it?"
"It's me."
"Brother Ping, I'm taking a shower, can you wait a bit?"
Gao Qilan said shyly.
"Never mind then, I'm going back too. You should get some sleep."
Tang Ping confirmed that the iron gate was tightly closed before leaving.
Back home, lying in bed, Tang Ping suddenly realized that he was a womanizer.
Having one sister-in-law, Chen Shuting, wasn't enough for him; he also liked Meng Yu, and then there was Gao Qilan. Although he tried to be more devoted, Gao Qilan's pure and innocent appearance always lingered in his mind.
Perhaps this is just a man's nature.
When wealth reaches a certain level, no one can control their desires.
Moreover, controlling desires is too exhausting.
Tang Ping didn't want to be a saint, so he decided to be an ordinary person, even if he was called a womanizer.
Do whatever makes you happy.
The night was long. Tang Ping kept dreaming that he was as rich as those on the Forbes list, that he had a big villa by the sea, and that Chen Shuting, Meng Yu, and Gao Qilan lived with him and had several sons.
While Tang Ping was sound asleep, Gao Qiqiang had already approached An Xin.
"Is the information accurate?" An Xin asked excitedly.
Gao Qiqiang assured him, "Absolutely accurate, Officer An, I can guarantee it with my life!"
Standing to the side, Li Xiang frowned and said, "Wan Shi Hao Ting has a lot of illegal and disorderly conduct, but the crime of detaining and trafficking underage girls is very serious. If there is evidence, they can definitely be convicted. However, every time we conduct a surprise inspection, the place is very clean. Moreover, it seems that Wan Shi Hao Ting received advance notice."
"I have a way."
"What?"
An Xin said, "We'll bring in people from other police stations in different districts. In addition, we'll go undercover beforehand to gather evidence before making the arrests."
“It won’t work, will it? First of all, you need to apply, and even the bureau might not approve it. Secondly, you argued with him face to face last time, so he definitely knows you, and your face is too familiar,” Li Xiang said.
"Then what should we do?"
Gao Qiqiang was also stunned. He didn't expect such a simple matter to become so complicated. He thought that as long as he provided clues and information, that would be enough.
An Xin said, "Don't worry, Lao Gao. There are difficulties, but we can solve them one by one. I'll figure out how to handle the application. As for the undercover operation, it's not easy for Li Xiang and me to get in. Lao Gao, I'll have to trouble you with that."
"Am I capable?"
“Of course you can. Think about it, you can teach him how to use that device.”
Gao Qiqiang was left in the office, where Li Xiang was teaching him how to use a voice recorder. As for a video camera, it was too conspicuous and difficult to bring in. Gao Qiqiang only needed to record evidence and find the exact location of the girls who were being held back in the basement.
An Xin waited in the director's office until Meng Dehai was gone before daring to knock on the door and go in.
"Please come in!"
There was only An Changlin inside. When he saw An Xin, who was looking furtively at the door, he immediately closed the door after entering. An Changlin immediately criticized him, "What are you doing? Just say what you want. This is the police station. You don't need to hide anything from anyone."
"Uncle, I have a favor to ask of you. I'd like to submit an application for you," An Xin said with a grin.
"What are you applying for? Do you want to be transferred?"
"No, Li Xiang and I discovered a case..."
An Xin briefly explained the situation, then looked at An Changlin and said, "Uncle, you must help me this time."
After listening, An Changlin glared and said, "Nonsense! Moving police forces across jurisdictions? What, do you suspect there's something wrong with us? You don't even trust your own comrades?"
"Uncle, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that what happened with Xu Jiang last time scared me. This is the best way to prevent the news from leaking out, please."
An Xin clasped his hands together, adopting a pleading posture.
An Changlin glanced at him and asked, "Then why didn't you apply to Director Meng for this?"
"I'm afraid of him, but isn't this because I'm close to you?"
"Am I easy to talk to? Don't try to sweet-talk me, kid."
An Xin's words struck a chord with An Changlin. Though he appeared serious on the surface, he was secretly pleased. After a pause, he said, "Alright, I can write the transfer order for you, but there's one condition: you must catch the person and have irrefutable evidence. If there's a mistake, I can't protect you either."
"Please rest assured, Director, I guarantee with my life that there will be absolutely no mistake!"
An Xin immediately saluted and said excitedly.
With the transfer order in place, things became much easier.
Carrying a recording pen, Gao Qiqiang entered Wanshi Mansion that very evening.
He didn't try to hide anything, and walked into the lobby openly, ordered a large private room, and then ordered a few hostesses.
One of the underlings recognized Gao Qiqiang and immediately notified the bald man.
Tiger wasn't in the office, so Baldy, upon hearing this, immediately said with a grin, "Alright, you finally decided to come. I'd like to see what this 'godfather' bastard really has up his sleeve!"
Baldy was very interested in messing with Gao Qiqiang, so he called Tiger in advance to find out Tiger's conditions before taking a bottle of red wine and walking into the private room.
"Oh, isn't this General Manager Gao from the Construction Group? Hehe, why didn't you call me beforehand so I could make arrangements?"
As soon as he entered, the bald man said with a grin.
Gao Qiqiang looked up at him and said directly, "Fourth brother, enough with the nonsense. I'm here to take my brother home. Tell me, what are your Tiger's conditions?"
"Oh, our Tiger said he wants ten million. Once the money arrives, he'll be released immediately," the bald man said.
"Ten million? Are you crazy? Where would I get that much money?"
Gao Qiqiang never expected that Tiger and his gang would be so ruthless.
Even if you killed him, he couldn't come up with ten million. Besides, there's no hope with Uncle Tai; he's unlikely to come up with that money.
At the same time, he felt a little lucky that he had found Tang Ping; otherwise, if he had come to negotiate on his own, the negotiations would have reached a stalemate, and Gao Qisheng would not have come out at all.
The bald man sneered, "You don't have it, but your godfather from the construction group does, doesn't he? Besides, if you don't have enough money, you can use projects to pay for it. Your troublesome brother caused our Tiger to lose the Old Street project, and the loss is more than ten million."
"That's too much, you should take less." Gao Qiqiang's face was very grim.
This bald man keeps talking about his godfather, clearly mocking him for acknowledging Uncle Tai as his godfather.
The bald man sneered, "Do you think this is a vegetable market? You think you can haggle over prices? Ten million, not a penny less. Tiger ordered that your brother's finger be chopped off every other day. You'd better watch out!"
