Zhang Wen's name

Hou Liangping's appointment came down quickly. The higher-ups saw Zhong Zhengguo's maneuvering but did not object, after all, it was only a deputy director-level position.

Hou Liangping was very excited as he held the appointment letter. "I'm finally back!"

Everyone was completely dumbfounded when they saw Wang Shan bring Hou Liangping in.

When Lu Yike saw Hou Liangping return, she felt as uncomfortable as if she had eaten dog shit.

"Prosecutor Wang, have you brought the wrong person? Isn't he the director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau of Z Province?"

Wang Shan almost laughed when he heard Lu Yike's words. He had even investigated Hou Liangping's potential transfer, and the result nearly gave him a fright. This guy dared to arrest a Standing Committee member's wife without a warrant!

"Lu Yike, how could I have brought the wrong person? This is your new director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau. I hope you will support his work."

The crowd still gave Wang Shan face after hearing this.

"Okay, Prosecutor Wang, we will definitely cooperate fully with Director Hou's work."

After speaking, Wang Shan immediately left the office. He didn't particularly like Hou Liangping either. He hoped Hou Liangping wouldn't cause him trouble in the future, otherwise he wouldn't be like Ji Changming.

As Wang Shan walked out of the office, Lu Yike looked Hou Liangping up and down.

"Director Hou, you look like you've lost a lot of weight. Looks like you've been doing a lot of exercise."

Hou Liangping couldn't stand the sarcastic remarks.

"Lu Yike, mind your place. I'm your boss now."

Lu Yike was already in a bad mood lately, and seeing Hou Liangping made her even more upset.

"Hou Liangping, you bastard, how dare you come back? You violated regulations by leading people to arrest Ouyang Jing. You're back now, but your colleagues who went with you are still stuck in the judicial office. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"

Hou Liangping was also a little surprised after hearing this. He really hadn't noticed that.

"Lu Yike, why are they still at the judicial office? It's been several years."

"You know it's been several years. Now that you're back, why don't you bring those colleagues back as well? If you can't even protect your own subordinates, who will dare to go on missions with you?"

Hou Liang found this situation rather troublesome; if this problem wasn't solved, he would be nothing more than a figurehead.

"Lu Yike, I'm not going to argue with you. I'm going to make a phone call."

After saying this, Hou Liangping went into his office.

As soon as Hou Liangping walked into the office, Lin Huahua and the others immediately surrounded him.

"Director Lu, weren't you being a bit too harsh this time? He's still our superior, after all."

"Yes, Director Lu, if we offend him like this, will he make things difficult for us?"

"Yes, do you think this guy can bring those colleagues back?"

"Alright, I know what I'm doing. If I don't teach him a lesson this time, he'll definitely try to ruin us next time."

Everyone agreed with this, after all, Hou Liangping was too unruly.

Hou Liangping, still in his office, dialed Zhong Xiaoai's number.

"Hey, Xiao Ai, I feel like things are getting really complicated here. Do you have a way to get rid of Lu Yike, that troublemaker? Ideally, you could get her to guard the reservoir."

Zhong Xiaoai was speechless after hearing this.

"Liangping, don't even think about it. Lu Yike's father also has connections."

Hou Liangping felt utterly hopeless after hearing this.

"Xiao Ai, you have no idea how awful that old woman Lu Yike is. She gave me a hard time as soon as I took office, making me lose face."

"Alright, Liangping, just let her have her way. Our Zhong family can't afford to offend anyone else."

Hou Liangping fell silent immediately after hearing this.

"Xiao Ai, can we bring back the people I implicated back then?"

Zhong Xiaoai hesitated for a moment.

"Ryoping, these people seem to have been suppressed by people from the banking system. If I help you bring them back, what if they come after you again?"

Hou Liangping was a little annoyed after hearing this.

"Xiao Ai, this won't work, that won't work. If I don't bring those people back, how am I supposed to get to work? Do you want me to be a commander without any troops?"

After thinking about it, Zhong Xiaoai decided to help.

"Alright, Liangping, wait for my news. I'll transfer the person back to you in a few days."

Hou Liangping's expression softened considerably upon hearing this.

"Xiao Ai, oh, thank you."

After finishing the phone call, Hou Liangping walked out of the office with an arrogant expression.

"Lu Yike, in a few days, those few sympathizers will be transferred back. From now on, you old woman, show me some respect."

Upon hearing the words "old woman," Lu Yike suddenly went berserk. She rushed over and unleashed a series of lightning-fast five-whip strikes and a Buddha's Shadowless Kick.

Hou Liangping didn't expect Lu Yike to go crazy, and ended up getting beaten black and blue.

When everyone saw Lu Yike beating Hou Liangping, they immediately came over to intervene and take his side.

Five minutes later, the crowd pulled the frenzied Lu Yike to her feet, leaving Hou Liangping lying on the ground with a bruised and swollen face, groaning in pain.

Hearing that there was a fight, Wang Shan immediately ran over. In his haste, he accidentally stepped on Hou Liangping's leg.

Wang Shan looked down and saw that Hou Liangping's face was swollen like a pig's head, and two of his teeth had been knocked out.

Wang Shan couldn't help but laugh out loud. Realizing it was inappropriate, he immediately looked at Lu Yike with a serious expression.

"Lu Yike, why did you beat up Director Hou?"

"Prosecutor Wang, you have to be my judge. He actually called me an old woman. I'm only 36, how am I old?"

After hearing this, Wang Shan curled his lip and said, "You're not that old. If you had married earlier, you could be someone's grandmother."

"Lu Yike, even if he calls you an old woman, you can't hit him. Look how badly you beat him, even his own mother wouldn't recognize him."

Lu Yike's face showed her dissatisfaction.

Hou Liangping, who was on the ground, saw Wang Shan arrive and hurriedly spoke.

"Prosecutor Wang, you have to stand up for me! This old woman has gone mad; look, she's trying to hit me again."

Wang Shan was speechless. Why do you have such a sharp tongue?

"Comrade Hou Liangping, I'll have someone take you to the hospital. Lu Yike will pay your medical expenses later."

Lu Yike objected after hearing this.

"Prosecutor Wang, why should I pay for her medical expenses? It's because she called me an old woman."

After hearing this, Wang Shan said with a serious expression.

"Lu Yike, who told you to lay a hand on him? If he insulted you, you could have insulted him back. But you beat him up like this; what will the higher-ups think of our procuratorate? You'll have to write a 1-word self-criticism later."

Lu Yike looked dejected after hearing this.

Seeing Lu Yike like this, everyone immediately comforted her.

"Director Lu, we beat him up too. We'll split the medical expenses. We've wanted to beat this bastard up for a long time."

Hou Liangping, who had just reached the door, fainted upon hearing this.

When Hou Liangping arrived at the hospital, he ran into Chen Hai.

Chen Hai wanted to laugh when he saw Hou Liangping's injured face, but he held back with great difficulty because he was concerned about Hou Liangping's feelings.

Hou Liangping was furious when he saw Chen Hai like this.

"Chen Hai, how did you manage the anti-corruption bureau? It's full of thugs! Look how badly they beat me up."

Chen Hai was a little surprised after hearing this.

"Liangping, you said it was our anti-corruption bureau that beat you up."

"It was Lu Yike who hit me. I just called her an old woman."

Chen Hai was speechless after hearing this. This is no way to court death! Don't you know she's been in a bad mood lately?

"Ryoping, take good care of your injuries. I'm leaving now."

After watching Chen Hai leave, Hou Liangping could only feel powerless rage.
