Chapter 1748: Chapter 1748:

Wu Qiangwei’s hand trembled as she grabbed her phone.

A report!

Another report!

Wu Qiangwei rarely lost control of her anger: "Whose report?"

Ji Wei said, "It involves 22 enterprises accusing Director Song of soliciting bribes. And there’s evidence."

Wu Qiangwei’s eyelid twitched heavily, she laughed in anger: "Evidence? What evidence?"

"Sorry, Mayor Wu, we can’t say for now. We’ll communicate with the city once we complete our investigation."

"Alright, is there anything you need me to do?" Wu Qiangwei didn’t press him. He had given enough face by saying this much.

"For now, we don’t need to trouble the city government, just wanted to give Mayor Wu a heads-up."

"Have you contacted Director Song?"

"Not yet."

"I’ll send someone to bring him over."

"Thank you, Mayor Wu."

Wu Qiangwei put down the phone, Wu Ming tilted his head: "Sis, that kid got reported again?"

Wu Qiangwei ignored him, adjusted her mindset in the car, and opened the door to exit.

She went to Song Guanchao’s office, opened the door, Song Guanchao was busy with work.

"Why are you here?" Song Guanchao put down the documents and walked over, noticing her unusual expression, thinking she might have suffered at the meeting: "Did Secretary Zhou disagree?"

Wu Qiangwei quietly looked at him, a touch of guilt surfaced on her face.

If it weren’t for her, Song Guanchao wouldn’t have put so much effort into handling this matter, wouldn’t have offended this group of enterprises, and wouldn’t have faced this series of unwarranted disasters.

"You’ve been reported, 22 enterprises jointly accuse you of soliciting bribes. And there’s evidence." Wu Qiangwei said in one breath.

Song Guanchao was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "I thought it was something serious, just this?"

The tactics these enterprises could use were just these, Song Guanchao had long prepared for it.

"They have evidence." Wu Qiangwei said worriedly.

"It’s just false accusations, the clean will prove their innocence, I’m not afraid of investigations. Since they want to play dirty with me, let’s play till the end. Falsely accusing a government official is a grave crime."

Song Guanchao smirked and asked, "Is Secretary Bao in charge?"

"It’s the Central Disciplinary Inspection Committee."

"Then I’ll head to the hotel now."

"Take my car, Wu Ming will drive you."

"Alright." Seeing her spirit somewhat downcast, Song Guanchao went over, closed the door, gently embraced her, and pecked her lips: "It’s basically certain that it’s directed by Lin He. The so-called evidence surely exists, but spontaneously generated evidence can’t withstand scrutiny. Lin He merely wants to take this opportunity to press me, force me to cooperate."

"Later, have Director Liang send some people over, ensure I can communicate with the outside, don’t worry about other matters."

Wu Qiangwei embraced him in return, standing on tiptoe, kissed his lips.

She seldom took the initiative, while Song Guanchao was stunned, she had already stepped down: "Be careful."

As soon as she finished speaking, Song Guanchao suddenly lowered his head and kissed her again.

The two kissed for a few minutes before Song Guanchao let go of her, she was weak, barely able to stand.

"I’m leaving."

Song Guanchao opened the door.

Once in the car, Wu Ming asked, "Is the situation serious?"

"I can handle it."

"Really confident." Wu Ming asked, "What are the plans for New Year?"

Song Guanchao looked at him: "Why, is there something during New Year?"

Wu Ming said, "By New Year, my sister will be 31. Aren’t you anxious at all? Oh, I forgot, you’re only 28. I mean, if you have no intention, better let go soon, don’t keep clinging to my sister, making her lose interest in dating."

Song Guanchao frowned slightly, when it comes to relationships, he indeed didn’t have a concrete goal.

But Wu Ming wasn’t wrong either; he could wait, but can Wu Qiangwei?

He recalled faces of Liang Jiajia, Qu Xiangru, and others in his mind.

His relaxed mood instantly turned irritable.

Seeing him silent and deeply furrowed, Wu Ming smirked and wisely refrained from further talk.

Soon, the car arrived at Fuli Hotel.

Ji Wei and two colleagues were already waiting there.

Upon alighting, Ji Wei greeted him with a bitter smile: "Director Song, apologies for making you come again."

Song Guanchao felt nothing against him, though annoyed, he wouldn’t vent at him.

It’s the same room as last time.

Ji Wei’s attitude was much better than the last two times.

Probably because previous reports didn’t uncover evidence.

He specifically poured a cup of tea for Song Guanchao, sat across from him: "Chairmen of 22 enterprises reported that you solicited bribes, and they provided you with cash or gold."

Song Guanchao repeated: "Fabrication."

"Mr. Ji, I want to call the police."

Ji Wei was slightly stunned, evidently not expecting such a strong reaction from Song Guanchao.

He reassured: "We’ll investigate to find out the truth."

Song Guanchao said, "I’m cooperating with Mr. Ji’s investigation now, but I also have the right to call the police, right?"

"You do."

Ji Wei didn’t dare to act too tough, he knew well, the evidence those enterprises claimed wasn’t resistant to investigation. Song Guanchao wouldn’t be detained here for long.

Moreover, he couldn’t appear too abnormal, lest Song Guanchao sense something was amiss.

During this period, he had been keeping an eye on happenings in Jiangzhou City.

Song Guanchao was fearless, had solid methods, not someone easy to deal with.

Besides, he was extremely perceptive, detecting any minor movement.

Though Ji Wei wanted to profit from the situation, he didn’t want to dig too deep.

What Chairman Fang and others wanted to do, he could lend a helping hand, but only that.

He wouldn’t engage in activities that might offend others.

Song Guanchao took out his phone and called Liang Jianfeng right in front of him.

This matter was sensitive and crucial.

Chairman Fang and his group had been pushed to the limit, they were capable of anything.

When they claimed to have evidence, there was definitely some evidence.

Whether the evidence was fake or not, they could make it appear genuine.

As he was on the defensive, he couldn’t rely on regular police to investigate, having Director Liang as the best arrangement.

The consequence of carelessness might lead to failure.

He couldn’t afford to bet on this outcome.

"Mr. Liang, I’ve been falsely accused and slandered..."

Song Guanchao straightforwardly highlighted the key points.

"Where are you?"

"At Fuli Hotel, undergoing investigation by the Central Disciplinary Inspection Committee."

"Send me the room number."

"Alright."

Song Guanchao put down his phone, looked at Ji Wei: "Mr. Ji, Director Liang is coming over."

"You take a rest, when Mr. Liang arrives, I’ll notify you." Ji Wei smiled, stood up, and left the room.

Song Guanchao lit a cigarette, squinted his eyes, feeling murderous intent.

One week since the meeting concluded.

Chairman Fang and his group showed no movement, he’d thought they had accepted their fate.

Seems they were still unwilling.

Fine, showing themselves earlier would be better, defeating them at once to prevent such minor actions in the future.

Liang Jianfeng arrived quickly, bringing along several police officers.

Ji Wei guided them into the room and retreated outside.

He stood aside smoking, two junior officers placed a camcorder at the corner of the table, aimed at Song Guanchao.

Opened the notebook, unscrewed the pen cap, said, "Director Song, please describe the process."
