Chapter 229 Establishing Rules



Ning Zhiheng smiled slightly, leaned back in his chair, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and said calmly, "Of course I won't actually report it. Yu Cheng is insignificant, so it's fine to offend him. But I can't afford to offend Gu Zhengqi behind him. If that old fox has his eye on you, he might bite you at a crucial moment, and you won't be able to defend against it!"

I just wanted to give Yu Cheng a warning, to make him behave himself in front of me. Just you wait, Gu Zhengqi will call me soon, and I'll naturally give him face then. Sometimes people are just like that—they're so shameless. If you don't teach them a lesson, they'll really think everyone has to fawn over them! I'm just setting some rules for them!

Upon hearing Ning Zhiheng's words, Wang Shucheng and Huo Yueze realized that their team leader was not only decisive in killing, but also had excellent skills in handling affairs. They couldn't help but feel a sense of awe. Even people like Gu Zhengqi and Yu Cheng were nothing more than that in Ning Zhiheng's eyes, and he could deal with them without hesitation!

When Yu Cheng heard Ning Zhiheng hang up the phone, he was completely stunned.

Ning Zhiheng is a young man who has achieved success and is full of ambition. He is naturally driven and impulsive. I'm afraid that if he doesn't consider the consequences and actually reports the situation, it will only make matters worse for the intelligence department, which is already in a difficult situation. I must stop him in time, but I certainly don't have that kind of authority.

Yu Cheng dared not delay. He stood up, strode out the door, and headed straight for Section Chief Gu Zhengqi's office, knocking on the door before entering.

This is Gu Zhengqi, who has just returned from the interrogation room. He poured a cup of tea and placed it on the table, then leaned back on the sofa to rest.

In the past two days, Gu Zhengqi has focused his energy on interrogating Gu Wenshi. He has sent people to take turns to wear down Gu Wenshi, hoping to get him to talk in a short time. However, Gu Wenshi has a strong will and there has been no progress yet. But this is a slow and steady process and cannot be rushed!

Suddenly seeing Yu Cheng rush in, she couldn't help but ask, "What happened? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Yu Cheng hesitated for a moment, but dared not delay any longer, and reported the phone call from Ning Zhiheng to Gu Zhengqi.

"Section Chief, this Ning Zhiheng is reckless and doesn't care about anything. I'm afraid he'll complain to the Director or Zhao Ziliang directly, which will cause a lot of trouble!" Yu Cheng said hurriedly.

Upon hearing Yu Cheng's account, Gu Zhengqi's expression grew increasingly grim. He snorted coldly and said to Yu Cheng, "Ning Zhiheng is right. In the end, you haven't taken this seriously enough, which is why you're so slow in doing things!"

I promised Chief Chu that I would catch this high-ranking spy within two days, but now the Operations Division has already completed its investigation, and you still haven't made a result! And you still have the nerve to come to me to complain!

As Gu Zhengqi spoke, he grew increasingly annoyed. The intelligence department was in a difficult situation, which worried him greatly, and he even took the initiative to personally lead the investigation.

You have to understand, given his status, he hasn't appeared on the front lines for many years, yet his subordinates have no sense of crisis whatsoever, procrastinating in their work. Now that the action department has caught them red-handed, they still have the nerve to come to him and complain. It's utterly absurd!

Yu Cheng knew that the section chief was extremely dissatisfied with his work. It was only because he was Yu Cheng's confidant that he was dealt with; otherwise, Yu Cheng would probably have dealt with him by now. He quickly explained, "Section Chief, Nanjing has a population of over a million, and there are countless tailor shops. We arranged for people to investigate separately, and there was indeed no delay at all. It's just that the Action Section acted faster, and Ning Zhiheng made a mountain out of a molehill. I hope that you, Section Chief, can step in and stop him. Otherwise, a small matter will escalate into a big one. Our Intelligence Section is in a critical period and cannot afford any more trouble!"

Gu Zhengqi sneered and cursed, "Don't you use your brain when you do things? Don't underestimate Ning Zhiheng just because he's young. He always plans things carefully before acting. Believe me or not, he hasn't done anything at all. He's just sitting in his office waiting for me to call him! You idiot, you messed things up and now you've made me bow down to a junior. You've made me lose all face!"

Gu Zhengqi, as expected of a cunning old fox, immediately understood Ning Zhiheng's intention with a glance. He wanted to give Yu Cheng a warning, to make him understand who was in charge of the case, and also to make him owe him a favor.

Ning Zhiheng is surprisingly adept at using the tactics of pushing, pulling, and obstructing in officialdom. I really don't know how this kid has been trained!
