Wen Yuan looked at Qiao Liang and said cruelly: "Qiao Liang, are you still burning buns? Are you still screaming? You are a good and honest cadre at the department level, and now you are in such a miserable state, you are really to blame."
Qiao Liang laughed angrily: "Mr. Wen, today I finally saw your true face. I can't figure out how a pretty face can be so disgusting?"
Wen Yuan was angry: "You bastard, you are still so arrogant at this point today. I think you deserve it. You deserve to get out of the officialdom, and you deserve to go home and farm!"
After saying that Wen Yuan followed Cheng Min and left, Qiao Liang looked at Wen Yuan's back coldly.
Si Shengjie looked at Qiao Liang and hesitated for a moment: "Qiao Liang, I didn't want to harm you. You can only blame yourself for your misfortune. Your affairs have nothing to do with me."
Qiao Liang chuckled: "Director Si, did I say it was related to you? Are you too sensitive? Is there something behind your words?"
"Well, you're overthinking this. I'm not sensitive in any way, and there's nothing in my words." After speaking, Si Shengjie hurriedly left.
Watching their leaving figures, Qiao Liang gritted his teeth and clenched his fists vigorously.
After leaving the hotel, Qiao Liang walked aimlessly along the sidewalk. The road in front of him seemed very long, just like his own life, but he couldn't seem to find the direction to move forward at the moment.
When he reached an intersection, Qiao Liang stopped and looked blankly at the busy traffic in front of him. Where should he go next?
While he was hesitating, a domineering car stopped beside him, and then the passenger window rolled down, revealing Tang Chao's grinning face. Then two burly men jumped out of the back of the car, blocking Qiao Liang one after another.
When Qiao Liang saw this posture, he knew something was wrong. He looked at Tang Chao and said, "Boss Tang, what do you want to do?"
"What for? Hehe, I want to talk about life with you. Come on, get in the car and follow me." Tang Chao waved his hand.
Tang Chao has always had a grudge against Qiao Liang, and has always wanted to fix him, but due to Qiao Liang's status, it has been difficult to do so. Now he happened to meet this kid on the street, so he took him away to find a place where no one was around and beat him up.
Teach him a lesson. There is no need to worry about teaching him a lesson now. This kid has already left the officialdom and is a homeless man.
Qiao Liang knew that being taken away by Tang Chao would definitely bring no good results. He had now roughly understood that Tang Chao should be involved in the plot against him, and even be the mastermind at the front desk. For him, such dirty tricks as operating the bar and the bar girls
Handy.
Qiao Liang really wanted to settle accounts with Tang Chao, and wanted to beat him up to vent his anger, but now that we were outnumbered, we couldn't defeat them forcefully.
A good man doesn't want to suffer the consequences. Qiao Liang said coldly: "I'm sorry, Boss Tang, I'm not interested in talking about life with you. Just go and do what you're supposed to do."
Tang Chao's face tightened: "Damn, this is not your decision, come on -"
The two men were about to take action. Qiao Liang stepped back, took a stance, and said sternly: "How dare you take action in broad daylight?"
Tang Chao laughed arrogantly: "Nima, what happened in broad daylight? Qiao Liang, do you know the consequences of offending me now? Hey, it's a piece of cake for me to mess with a small official like you. But it's too late for you to regret it now.
Come on, you have offended me, and you think it’s the end of the world if you leave the officialdom? It’s not over, I have to break both of your legs today.”
Qiao Liang nodded secretly. As he expected, it was obvious from Tang Chao's words that the plot against him was closely related to him.
Tang Chao plotted against him and made him leave the officialdom. It wasn't over yet, he still wanted to kill everyone.
Qiao Liang was filled with anger and numbness. Since you are so ruthless, I will fight for it.
Qiao Liang was heartbroken, clenching his fists and preparing to fight. If he couldn't win today, he would have to fight. At worst, it would be a fight to the death.
At this moment, a Land Rover suddenly stopped nearby, and then Lu Qian jumped out of the car and shouted: "What are you doing? You want to stir up trouble and disturb public order in public?"
Seeing Lu Qian's sudden appearance, Tang Chao was stunned for a moment, and then became timid. Not only was this woman very skilled, she was also the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, so she could not be offended easily.
Tang Chao hurriedly waved to his subordinates: "Hurry, get in the car, go quickly——"
The two men jumped into the car and ran away quickly.
Qiao Liang breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Lu Qian: "Why are you here?"
Lu Qian waved to Qiao Liang: "Let's get in the car first."
Qiao Liang got into the car and saw that the driver was the third child.
The third child immediately started the car and said as he drove: "I asked Bureau Lu to go out to do some errands today. When I passed by here, I happened to see you and those two people about to start a fight on the side of the road, so Bureau Lu came down."
Lu Qian sighed: "Mr. Qiao, this is the third time a beauty has saved a hero."
Qiao Liang was embarrassed for a moment, and the third child laughed.
Lu Qian continued: "Why is Tang Chao looking for trouble with you?"
Qiao Liang said: "Of course it's because of what happened before, and he's not done yet."
Lu Qian snorted: "If this kid dares to do anything else again, I won't be able to spare him next time. I'll report him to Minister Tang later."
The third child said while driving: "It is the fault of a son not to teach his father. Director Lu, I think the next time you teach Tang Chao a lesson, you should also teach Minister Tang a lesson."
Lu Qian shook her head: "I don't have this ability. Minister Tang is a big leader. Although Tang Chao is a jerk, Minister Tang still understands the principles and talks about the general principles."
Qiao Liang didn't say anything. Lu Qian had not been in Jiangzhou for a long time, so she naturally didn't know Tang Shusen.
In fact, not to mention Lu Qian, even those officials in Jiangzhou officialdom, except for high-level officials and individual cadres, may not be able to see through Tang Shusen. After all, he is too good at disguising. In public, he always looks righteous and sanctimonious.
.
Thinking of this, Qiao Liang exhaled: "What are you trying to do?"
Lu Qian said: "The third child and I are together, so naturally we have to deal with matters related to Jin Tao's death, and investigate the clues about the squint and the whereabouts of the knife."
"You haven't found their whereabouts yet?" Qiao Liang said.
Lu Qian nodded: "Yes, it's ongoing."
The third child said at this time: "Qiao Liang, where are you going?"
Qiao Liang sighed: "Where else can I go? Now that I have no official position, I can just wander around on the road."
The third child frowned: "Looking at how lost you are, isn't it true that you can't join the officialdom? What a big deal, you can't live without the officialdom? I haven't been in the officialdom for a day, so I can't live happily."
Lu Qian nodded and praised: "Lao San has a good attitude, but Lao San, it is precisely because you have never been in the officialdom that you don't understand the mentality of people who have been in the officialdom. I actually understand Qiao Liang's mood now. After all, I work in the officialdom."
After so many years, we have finally gotten to this point, and now we are all gone, who would be willing to do so?"
"So what if you don't give in? Who makes you a nobody? Since you are a nobody, you have to accept your fate. There is no point in refusing to accept it." Lao San argued.
"Hey, kid, your brother is in trouble. Not only did you not comfort him properly, but you also said that. It's really not fun." Lu Qian hit the third child.
The third child chuckled: "I say this to keep him clear-headed and not to get addicted to it, otherwise it will not do him any good."
Listening to what Lao San and Lu Qian said, Qiao Liang suddenly felt annoyed: "Stop the car——"
