Chapter 1760: Chapter 1760
Until the interview ended, Fei Shuo still hadn’t decided what to choose.
"Director Song, today’s interview... I’m afraid the Propaganda Department might not approve it."
He spoke tactfully, but he believed Song Guanchao would understand the meaning he wanted to convey.
Song Guanchao said, "Send me the interview video later, don’t release it yet, wait for my call."
"Okay." Only then did Fei Shuo breathe a sigh of relief. He also took this time to learn more about Song Guanchao.
After he left, Director Ma came in and said, "I’ve reported to Director Liang and Mayor Wu."
"I was wondering why the phone kept ringing non-stop." Song Guanchao took out his phone and saw several missed calls.
"You should go back and rest."
"I’d better stay here." Director Ma was worried there might be trouble again at night.
"This is a hospital, no one would dare cause trouble. The law and order in Jiangzhou is still very good."
With Song Guanchao’s repeated persuasion, Director Ma finally left.
After he left, Song Guanchao dialed Wu Qiangwei’s number.
"Are you hurt?" Wu Qiangwei’s tone was anxious.
"It’s just a little prick, like a needle, nothing serious." Afraid she would worry, Song Guanchao added, "I got hurt on purpose. Otherwise, would two people be able to get close to me?"
After chatting for a few minutes, dispelling her worries, Song Guanchao said, "This time they handed the initiative to me, there’s no more obstacle in this matter."
Wu Qiangwei also understood his intention, but still reproached him, "Don’t be so impulsive in the future, what if something unexpected happens..."
"Yeah, yeah, I’ll definitely tell you first next time."
Wu Qiangwei knew that despite his comforting words, if a similar situation occurred in the future, he would surely do the same, feeling a bit helpless.
"Go to bed early."
"You too, sleep early."
...
Early the next morning.
Secretary Pan made tea for Zhou Zheng and came out, receiving a call that changed his expression. He knocked and entered, "Secretary Zhou, Director Song was kidnapped at knifepoint last night."
Zhou Zheng’s eyes lit up, "What happened?"
He didn’t expect to hear such news that would lift his spirits so early in the morning.
Secretary Pan briefly explained the situation. Learning that Song Guanchao was only stabbed once and was not seriously hurt, and the kidnapper was apprehended, Zhou Zheng looked disappointed, making no effort to hide it.
"Has the police interrogated them?"
"They have, but there’s no result yet."
"Keep me updated on any progress."
"Understood."
Secretary Pan gently closed the door. Zhou Zheng grabbed his phone and called Wu Qiangwei.
"Mayor Wu, I heard Director Song was injured?" Zhou Zheng’s tone was concerned.
"It’s nothing serious, thank you for your concern, Secretary Zhou."
"As long as he’s fine." Zhou Zheng turned and angrily said, "These kidnappers are too audacious, daring to kidnap even City Government officials!"
Wu Qiangwei wasn’t in the mood to hear his hypocrisy, so she said a few perfunctory words and hung up the phone.
...
"Quite resilient." Sun Jiajun’s mood was just like Zhou Zheng’s, a roller coaster from excitement to disappointment.
When he calmed down, he immediately guessed that it must have been Chairman Fang’s doing.
Really foolish, to be ruthless enough to hire thugs for kidnapping but not enough people?
...
"Brother Du, what do you need me for?"
Su Rong walked into the room, looked at Du Canyang, who was waiting for her with a towel wrapped around his waist, on the bed, and did not step forward.
In her eyes, Du Canyang’s utility value was depleted, not worth her continued investment.
However, since he called for her, there must be some good news.
"Sit."
Du Canyang patted the spot next to him.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Rong still walked over.
Seeing her cold expression, Du Canyang chuckled lightly, "What, can’t I call you for nothing, or do you think I’m of no use anymore?"
As he laid it all out, Su Rong wasn’t embarrassed, merely repeating softly, "Is there anything?"
"Song Guanchao was attacked last night."
Su Rong froze, her previously gloomy eyes suddenly lit up, "Really?"
"Do you think I’d lie to you about something like this?"
Du Canyang reached out to undress her, and Su Rong instinctively retreated, then saw his face darken and forced herself to stay still.
Du Canyang removed her clothes, caressed her smooth shoulder, and slowly pressed her down.
Kissing, touching, he said, "Last night, there were two thugs hiding in the staircase outside Song Guanchao’s door."
"And then?" Su Rong urged.
"The two thugs had knives."
Du Canyang bit forcefully on her chest, the sudden stimulus made her cry out, shivering.
Du Canyang pulled down her pants, lifted her legs, and launched his assault.
After the event, Su Rong continued her inquiry, "Was Song Guanchao kidnapped?"
"No." Du Canyang leaned against the bedhead, admiring her body, full of bite marks and slap marks, "The two thugs were subdued by Song Guanchao, and then the police came and caught them."
Su Rong felt deceived and tricked!
She bit her lip and glared at Du Canyang angrily.
Du Canyang said, "But, there’s good news."
Su Rong said nothing, wanting to hear what more he could say.
"Though the thugs were subdued, during the struggle, Song Guanchao was stabbed, and he’s in the hospital now."
"Stabbed once..." Su Rong’s expression eased a bit.
Du Canyang said, "The companies’ revenge against Song Guanchao is fierce. Reporting him was just the first wave, framing was the second. As those two didn’t work, they directly hired thugs."
"Just wait and see, even if Song Guanchao escaped this time, there’s always a next time."
Du Canyang pinched her moon-like bottom, "Feeling better?"
Su Rong forced a slight smile and softly hummed.
"Good to feel better." Du Canyang pulled her onto himself, patted her bottom, "Move yourself."
Su Rong pursed her lips, moved reluctantly on him.
...
"Mr. Lin, Song Guanchao was stabbed by thugs." Chairman Fang called to test the waters.
He suspected that Lin He was the one who arranged it.
"Just stabbed? That’s a pity." Lin He’s tone seemed genuinely regretful.
Chairman Fang confirmed that Lin He was indeed the one who set it up.
"I heard those two thugs were caught by the police."
"Caught is caught. Chairman Fang, is there anything else? If not, I’ll hang up, I have some matters to attend to here."
Chairman Fang mused quietly, Lin He really is calm, he doesn’t seem worried at all.
Aren’t you afraid the police will trace back to you?
Lin He really isn’t afraid.
He’s meticulous in his work, with many layers of people between him and the deed, the police could never trace it to him.
Even if they could, they wouldn’t have the evidence.
Even if everyone knew he was the one who paid for it, he could still get away with it.
...
At the hospital, Wu Qiangwei and Han Lan came to visit him.
Seeing for themselves that the wound on Song Guanchao’s arm wasn’t large, just a cut, Wu Qiangwei finally felt at ease.
Not long after they left, Sun Jiajun came, pretending to show concern.
Soon after, several Vice Mayors came in succession.
Song Guanchao patiently dealt with them.
In the afternoon, Minister Liu Peihua from the City Propaganda Department arrived.
"Director Song, you’ve been wronged." Liu Peihua, with a caring expression and tone, said some cliche official words that even sounded awkward, finally expressing his concern, "The nature of this incident is too vile, spreading news like this is bad for Jiangzhou’s image."
He added, "Director Song, please don’t misunderstand. I just don’t want people to think that Jiangzhou’s public security is bad because of this incident. Those two thugs have been apprehended, and they’ll definitely be severely sentenced."
"Understood." Song Guanchao said with a smile, "Minister Liu, as long as you handle the propaganda tightly, I’m just worried that some with ulterior motives might intentionally make a fuss about my incident."
Seeing him so understanding, Liu Peihua said, "Rest assured, Director Song, no one dares to spread it recklessly!"
