Chapter 88: Walking While Holding the Wall
Zhuang Yuelong's face was full of pride as he sneered, "Now you realize I'm the boss, but it's too late. Even if you let me go, I won't let you off. Gu Qiancheng, you'd better watch out because when I'm out, I'll make sure you rot in jail for life!"
Arrogant.
It's undeniable, Zhuang Yuelong is indeed arrogant now, but it's understandable. His father's position is several levels higher than Gu Qiancheng's, so usually, Gu Qiancheng can only look up to him.
His son, Gu Qiancheng, dares to make a move?
Slap~
However, just as Zhuang Yuelong was basking in his smugness, Gu Qiancheng delivered a resounding slap. If it weren't for Leng Rushuang holding Zhuang Yuelong, he would've surely landed on his back.
Stunned.
Zhuang Yuelong clutched his face, utterly bewildered. Wasn't I the boss? How dare you hit the boss? Aren't you afraid of dying?
The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved Zhuang Yuelong felt, so he shouted angrily, "Gu Qiancheng, you..."
Slap~
Before he could finish, Gu Qiancheng landed another slap. This time, even Leng Rushuang didn't manage to hold onto Zhuang Yuelong, and his body flew out like a dead dog, crashing into and breaking a table.
This slap wasn't light, causing several of Zhuang Yuelong's teeth to fall out, adding to the two knocked out earlier by Xiao Tianyu, leaving his mouth almost empty.
"Say one more word, and I'll shoot you right now, believe it or not!" Gu Qiancheng was already in a foul mood because of Xiao Tianyu, and with Zhuang Yuelong flaunting his power in front of him, who else would he take it out on?
Hearing this, Zhuang Yuelong immediately deflated, staring blankly at Gu Qiancheng. Wasn't I supposed to be the boss? Wasn't the boss hard to challenge? Why is it different for me?
Boo hoo~ Dad, come save me quickly, or else your son might end up crippled.
Now, Leng Rushuang was also bewildered, unable to keep up with the rapid development of events. She seemed to vaguely realize that Xiao Tianyu's identity was extraordinary. Was he really just Gao Shaoyang's friend?
As for Gu Qiancheng, he was utterly frustrated. Someone had provided him information claiming the president of Chenfeng was a major drug lord. An arrest would mean a promotion, so he assigned this task to Leng Rushuang. Unexpectedly, Leng Rushuang brought back the informant.
Detaining them was one thing, but then Zhuang Yuelong produced evidence of Lingxiao Association's destruction, pointing directly at Xiao Tianyu. Gu Qiancheng had his doubts about this evidence, but by procedure, he still detained Xiao Tianyu.
Detaining him was one thing, but who knew Xiao Tianyu's identity would be so terrifying? He was the head of Tianyu International and the boss of the Divine Protection Security Department.
How could such a high-profile figure from Tianyu International commit murder? Even if he did, would he personally do it? Ridiculous. So Zhuang Yuelong's false testimony collapsed on its own. If it were possible, Gu Qiancheng would wish to die.
Of course, even if Xiao Tianyu did commit murder, despite being their boss, it should still be handed over to the police department. But that's an entirely fictional scenario, purely the defamation of Divine Protection Security's rogue agents.
"Leng Rushuang, you brought him here, so handle it yourself. Whether he wants to kill or cut, you'll have to endure, or else you can forget about working for me!" Gu Qiancheng coldly snorted at Leng Rushuang, his eyes nearly sparking with fury.
Hearing this, Leng Rushuang was even more bewildered, feeling immensely wronged, she said, "Minister Gu, I was just following procedures, and instead of praising me, you want me to beg a prisoner? That's unfair!"
With that, tears welled up in Leng Rushuang's eyes.
Prisoner?
Oh my goodness, does this woman still want to finish me off with another kick? At this point, she still thinks Xiao Tianyu is a prisoner. Heaven and earth, strike me down with thunder and take me, this foolish subordinate, away.
Seeing Leng Rushuang's aggrieved expression, Gu Qiancheng was infuriated, "Cry, cry, cry~ What good does crying do? If this matter isn't handled well, I won't have anywhere to cry, and you still have the nerve to cry?"
"Minister, why? I'm just fulfilling my duty as part of the Divine Protection Security Department. Our department's main role is to assist the police and eradicate evil to the best of our ability. Why scold me like this? Xiao Tianyu embezzled 2.4 billion, and all that money was from Chenfeng International, essentially black money. Was I wrong to arrest him?"
"Black money, who said it was black money?" Gao Shaoyang snorted coldly from the side, "Chengfeng Group owed Qingcheng International a debt, and my friend was just collecting it. That money rightfully belonged to Qingcheng International, what evidence do you have to slander it as black money? Besides, that money was just Qingcheng International's loan to Chenfeng, now it's returned to its rightful owner!"
Gao Shaoyang was actually full of admiration for Xiao Tianyu. During the journey, he had already heard from Luo Bing that it was just six million, but Xiao Tianyu extorted it into 2.4 billion. Probably no one in the world except Tianyu can pull off such an unbelievable feat.
"..." Upon hearing this, Leng Rushuang was rendered speechless. If what Gao Shaoyang said was true, then the money was indeed not black money but Qingcheng International's. Could it be that Qingcheng's money, when placed in Chenfeng, was black money? Impossible.
"Now that everything is clear, it's someone else's money. Are you satisfied now?" Gu Qiancheng snorted coldly, continuing, "Why are you still standing there? Go and take off his handcuffs!"
"I... I..." Leng Rushuang seemed unwilling, but Gu Qiancheng interrupted, "Forget it, I'll go myself. Gao, why don't you come with me!"
The more people, the safer it is.
"You want to go, you go by yourself. My friend's not the type with a good temper, and he's most annoyed about being falsely accused. You're on your own!" Gao Shaoyang maintained a serious expression, thinking to himself, "Do I look stupid to accompany you and get yelled at?"
Gu Qiancheng was dumbfounded, not even able to find someone to back him up. Oh well, if I'm going to get yelled at, it's not a firing squad, I won't lose a piece of flesh... but... why the hell are my legs still feeling weak?
Even so, Gu Qiancheng swayed as he walked towards the interrogation room, Leng Rushuang following behind, and Gao Shaoyang also took steps, but only to stand guard outside the door.
Soon, the group arrived at the interrogation room. What's even more impressive is that Gu Qiancheng was walking the whole way with support from the wall, leaving Leng Rushuang a bit frustrated. Is the usually mighty Minister too exaggerated, even holding on to the wall while walking.
"Why aren't you coming to support me!" Gu Qiancheng shouted coldly at Leng Rushuang, who replied, "I have a prisoner in my hands!"
"Shoot him!"
"..." At these words, Zhuang Yuelong collapsed to the ground completely.
What, shot?
I... I don't want to die, my dad hasn't arrived yet, how can you shoot me? No... no... this is too wrongful for me to die.
"Really shoot him?" Leng Rushuang was also taken aback.
"Can't you just cuff him to the railing?" Gu Qiancheng was mentally on the verge of breaking down, his subordinate was really too incompetent.
