Name: The Holy Son of the Energy Department Enters Handong

Qi Tongwei, supporting his back, left his and Liang Lu's small home.

Yesterday, I inexplicably returned here. As for what happens next...

Liang Lu happened to be having a drink on her own, and Qi Tongwei joined her for a few drinks.

Without really understanding what was going on, I did some things that adults should do that night.

It's truly remarkable how well Liang Lu has maintained her youthful appearance despite her advanced age!

Taibai.

Qi Tongwei picked up his phone and looked at it as he got behind the wheel.

Hundreds of missed calls, all from the same person, Zhao Ruilong.

"Hehehe, are you in such a hurry already?"

I just want to withdraw my shares.

This young master Zhao became anxious.

Sure enough, the Zhao family's ship had already started to develop holes.

"If I don't jump, I'll just fall into the endless abyss with this ship!" Qi Tongwei gave himself a high-sounding reason for jumping ship.

He knew that jumping ship at this point would indeed be somewhat unethical.

But Zhao Ruilong has benefited greatly from me over the years, so it's time to stop here. Your father can't help me, and I have no obligation to help you anymore.

Qi Tongwei, without hesitation, took the initiative to call Zhao Ruilong.

"Beep beep beep beep beep!!!"

The phone rang three times before being answered immediately, followed by a hoarse and furious voice.

"Qi Tongwei, you finally decided to call me. What? Are you regretting it?"

"You still want to get back on the Zhao family's ship? Let me tell you, if you want to come back, you'll have to kowtow to me a hundred times!" Zhao Ruilong's furious words came through the phone receiver.

Qi Tongwei was completely confused.

Then he let out a low, cold laugh:

"You're too stupid to even kowtow to get on your Zhao family's sinking ship. Don't you understand the current situation?"

"I'm calling just to tell you that I, Qi Tongwei, am not afraid of you, I just didn't have time to answer your call yesterday!" Qi Tongwei said sarcastically in a sharp tone.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ruilong was instantly enraged.

He sneered repeatedly:

"Fine, fine, Qi Tongwei, you've really grown wings. I'll call Gao Yuliang, I refuse to believe Gao Yuliang can't deal with you!"

Qi Tongwei frowned deeply when he heard the name Gao Yuliang.

In a cold tone:

"Don't involve Teacher Gao in our relationship!"

Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!

Zhao Ruilong listened to his words without the slightest doubt.

"Hahaha, now they're panicking, now they're scared!"

Zhao Ruilong chuckled with satisfaction.

He had never taken Qi Tongwei seriously from the beginning, and Qi Tongwei's threat at this moment was nothing but a joke to him.

"Qi Tongwei told me, 'How can you be so rude to me? Do you dare to touch me?'"

Or are you going to kill me?

"Hahahaha!" Zhao Ruilong laughed and clutched his stomach.

Qi Tongwei's face darkened as he listened; he really had no way to deal with Zhao Ruilong.

"I'm going to withdraw my shares. This is a notice. I hope you'll do as I say, or I won't hesitate to take you down with me!"

Your life, Young Master Zhao, should be more important than mine, so don't push me.

"I am not a coward, but a hero who can fight drug dealers to the death and survive three gunshot wounds!" Qi Tongwei said with great determination and resolve, his words even carrying a hint of murderous intent.

He hung up the phone immediately after saying that.

Zhao Ruilong listened to Qi Tongwei's voice coming from the phone.

His face turned extremely gloomy.

Qi Tongwei's last words truly stunned him.

Qi Tongwei guessed correctly; he indeed dared not gamble his life on whether Qi Tongwei would dare to perish with him.

Zhao Ruilong may be arrogant and greedy, but he is not stupid.

When it comes to things that could potentially land him in jail, Zhao Ruilong has never taken any risks.

"This is outrageous! Knowing that my Zhao family is in trouble, they all want to jump ship!" Zhao Ruilong roared, smashing his phone.

The maid at the door immediately called out.

"Young Master, what is it?!"

"If there's nothing else, get out of here!"

Zhao Ruilong roared.

Venting his anger, he picked up the landline and called Gao Yuliang.

"Beep beep beep beep beep!!"

He had to ask whether this was Qi Tongwei's personal idea or Gao Yuliang's instigation.

He could assume the former was something Qi Tongwei did in a moment of folly, but he really needed to think about the latter.

If this is Gao Yuliang's intention, then it means that the Zhao family's biggest backer in Handong Province is no longer prepared to help them.

Zhao Ruilong can no longer run rampant in Handong Province.

"Ruilong, what's the matter with you calling me?"

Gao Yuliang answered the phone, his voice revealing a mixture of refinement and doubt.

Zhao Ruilong usually doesn't call him.

But calling him is not a good thing.

The two first met when they were both serving as the Party Secretary of Lüzhou City.

Zhao Ruilong wants to approve the establishment of the Luzhou Crescent Lake Food City.

From then on, Gao Yuliang felt the allure of serving the people and embarked on a path of no return.

"Secretary Yuliang, thankfully your phone went through, unlike Qi Tongwei, whom I called all night and he only called me back this morning."

"It seems his intentions weren't at your behest, so I'm relieved?" Zhao Ruilong exhaled slowly, his tone slightly relaxed and relieved.

Upon hearing this, Gao Yuliang slowly frowned: "What did Tongwei say to you?"

"What is he trying to do?" Gao Yuliang immediately realized that Qi Tongwei must have gone to see Zhao Ruilong and said some unpleasant things.

So Zhao Ruilong called me directly.

"It seems that Qi Tongwei doesn't really want to stay on our Zhao family's ship anymore."

"He told me some things!" Zhao Ruilong said carelessly, not daring to let Gao Yuliang know that Qi Tongwei had shares in his Shanshui Group.

Gao Yuliang knew he would be furious afterward.

Although this was easy to guess.

But whether or not to say it is another matter entirely.

If Zhao Ruilong and Qi Tongwei didn't say anything, Gao Yuliang could pretend he didn't know.

If Gao Yuliang found out, he would strongly oppose this matter.

"Your conduct over the years, Young Master Zhao"

Now that the new secretary has taken office, he doesn't know his place yet. Who wouldn't want to get off the Zhao family's ship?

"If I could, I'd like to try it too!" Gao Yuliang exhaled slowly, his tone serious and tinged with emotion.

This is his true thought, and also his helplessness.

Zhao Lichun is such a kind person. Gao Yuliang is a man of integrity and character, so how could he not be kind?

Besides, he's already reached this position.

This change of position is not something that can be done so easily; this ship is not something that can be disembarked from so easily!

"Haha, Secretary Gao, please don't joke with me." Zhao Ruilong laughed awkwardly.

He knew that Gao Yuliang's situation was getting out of control.

He quickly reassured him, "Don't worry, my old man has been promoted, he's not dead!"

"Nothing will happen. You can just focus on being your full-time deputy secretary; there won't be any trouble."

"Hehehe, I hope so..." Gao Yuliang sighed as he looked out the window in his office.

The view from this high place is breathtaking and incredibly tempting, but he has already fallen.

Whether we can climb out of this quagmire or not is up to fate.

"Alright, that's settled then. Qi Tongwei can step down if he wants. Even if he does, he'll still be my student, and our teacher-student relationship can't be severed!"

"I'm still here." Gao Yuliang reassured Zhao Ruilong before hanging up the phone.
