Before Lai Xueming could refuse, Ye Weiwei continued, "I believe that after what Cui Yong and his group have done, Director Lai, in order to prove the innocence of each committee and uphold their image of fairness and impartiality, you will definitely be very willing to accept my help. Otherwise, I believe that tonight's events would have already..."
Ye Weiwei held up a finger and pointed upwards, her voice slow and deliberate, tinged with a hint of boastfulness: "A few days ago I went to visit Elder Long, and he was so happy that he said I could make a request..."
The surroundings fell silent. Even Lai Xueming looked at Ye Weiwei with suspicion, as if trying to see through her!
Ye Weiwei chuckled lightly, her voice slightly nonchalant: "Old Master Long is getting on in years. If we disturb him this late at night and ruin his sleep... Sigh! I've heard that Old Master Long is a very fair man, and he can't tolerate any nonsense..."
Lai Xueming squinted at Ye Weiwei: "You're using Elder Long to pressure me? Are you trying to threaten me?"
Ye Weiwei laughed and said, "Director Lai, you can eat whatever you want but you can't say whatever you want. When did I threaten you? I admire and respect Elder Long and don't want to cause him any trouble. Is that wrong?"
Director Zhao was in a good mood when he saw that Lai Xueming had been won over by Ye Weiwei in just a few words. He added, "That's right! Oh, women are so thoughtful and considerate. Old Master Long is getting on in years, so let's not bother him so late at night. What do you say, Director Lai?"
What else can Lai Xueming say?
I could only swallow my anger in silence!
"I've long heard that the Qin family's daughter-in-law is eloquent and has a silver tongue, but today I've truly witnessed it for myself!"
Ye Weiwei seemed completely oblivious to Lai Xueming's sarcasm, her smile unwavering: "No problem, no problem."
Lai Xueming sneered: "Don't think I'm afraid of you just because you brought up Elder Long! Ye Weiwei, our committees have received reports that your Qin family is hiding a treasure vault containing many prohibited items. You have already broken the law. Even if it's Elder Long, he can't interfere with our committees' normal investigation!"
Ye Weiwei scoffed: "Fine! Then let's sort things out properly in front of Director Zhao and Minister Lin, and see if your various committees are handling cases properly!"
You said you received a report, so may I ask, who was the reporter? Did you verify the report after receiving it?
Lai Xueming said in a deep voice, "To prevent you from retaliating afterward, we have a rule that we cannot disclose the information of whistleblowers!"
Ye Weiwei sneered: "So, you didn't even verify the facts. You only received one report and convicted us, determined that we were guilty, and came to our home to arrest us? Without any evidence, is this how arbitrarily you committees arrest people?"
Lai Xueming was stumped by Ye Weiwei's question, and it took him a while to say, "Who said we don't have evidence? Of course we have evidence to arrest people!"
Once they arrest someone, with their methods, who can withstand it?
It's only a matter of time before they tell the truth.
However, he couldn't say these words in front of these people.
After all, the people living in this compound are not ordinary people. Although everyone knows the truth, there are some things that can never be brought to the forefront.
That bitch Ye Weiwei, she really knows how to talk!
This is a clever way of trying to trap him and make him jump into it!
Upon hearing Lai Xueming say he had evidence, Ye Weiwei stretched out her small hand and said, "Then I'll trouble Director Lai to produce the evidence! As long as you produce the evidence, you can do whatever you want with me, Ye Weiwei, without batting an eye!"
Lai Xueming was surprised that Ye Weiwei was still so persistent even after he had said all that, and his brows furrowed tightly.
Director Zhao fanned the flames from the side: "I'm also very curious about what kind of evidence it is. Director Lai, since Comrade Ye Weiwei has said so, then you should produce the evidence to convince her and let all the onlookers see that your committees handle cases impartially and in accordance with procedures, and there are absolutely no wrongful convictions or tortured confessions."
"That's right! If you have evidence, show it to us. If it's true, we can all testify for you!"
Someone in the crowd immediately chimed in.
Duan Yannian said in a deep voice, "As long as you can produce evidence today to prove that what you said is true, then we will not stop you from beating or killing us today. Not only will we not stop you, I will personally tie up the people and send them to you!"
"Yes! That's it! As long as you can provide evidence!"
"Isn't there evidence? Show it to her, it's not like we're missing a piece! If Ye Weiwei wants to see it, then show it to her. Since she's the one being sued, she has the right to know!"
"Who knows if they're just making things up, trying to find a reason to arrest Ye Weiwei."
"Do they intend to arrest someone and force a confession through torture?"
"Of course they are, otherwise why haven't they produced any evidence yet? If they have nothing to hide, they should show everyone the evidence!"
"..."
Hearing the growing jeers from those around him and seeing the increasingly strange looks they were giving him, Lai Xueming knew that if he couldn't produce evidence, things wouldn't end well.
Moreover, Ye Weiwei also mentioned Elder Long.
Although he didn't know whether what she said was true or false, at this moment, he had no choice but to believe her.
However, since Elder Long is fair and intolerant of any wrongdoing, if he finds out that the Qin family really has a hidden treasure trove, he can do whatever he wants to the Qin family without any problem!
The thought of being able to capture that bitch Ye Weiwei and torture her to vent his anger finally made Lai Xueming feel a little better.
I just feel sorry for half of the treasures in the Qin family's treasury.
But as long as we get through this, and everyone is safe, we'll still have our baby!
Thinking of this, Lai Xueming coldly looked at Ye Weiwei and the others and said, "Fine, since you insist on courting death, then I won't give you any face at all!"
After saying that, he quietly instructed his men to call Qin Zhenshan and Qin Zhenyue over.
Lai Xueming is a person with a strong desire for revenge.
His setback with the Qin family caused him to lose face and his treasure, a complete loss. He also harbored hatred for Qin Zhenshan and Qin Zhenyue, who had provided him with the information.
If he can't get half of the good stuff from the Qin family, then those two bastards shouldn't even think about getting it either!
Moreover, his brother-in-law was crippled by Ye Weiwei tonight and is still unconscious, so how could he possibly let Qin Zhenshan and Qin Zhenyue have a good time?
Didn't Ye Weiwei want to know who reported them?
Then tell her to let the Qin family fight amongst themselves, let the dogs bite each other!
Qin Zhenshan and Qin Zhenyue had been keeping a close eye on the military compound all night and hadn't gone to sleep yet. The commotion here was so big that they were quite anxious, but when they thought about Director Lai personally leading people there, their excitement and anticipation outweighed their unease, as if they could see countless treasures beckoning to them.
