A man in Handong: living off Zhong Xiaoai

Lin Yaodong was sitting opposite Qi Tongwei, with a humble and refined smile on his face.

"Lin Yaodong, what brings you here? Have you found Yang Xiaobei?"

Qi Tongwei spoke while looking down and revising the documents.

Lin Yaodong smiled.

"Director Qi, after I went back and investigated carefully, I actually found Yang Xiaobei."

Upon hearing Lin Yaodong's words, Qi Tongwei finally stopped what he was doing and looked up at Lin Yaodong.

"Found them? Where is the person?"

"Director Qi, we have found her, but I may not be able to bring her to you."

"What do you mean? The person is dead?"

A look of surprise appeared in Qi Tongwei's eyes.

After hearing Qi Tongwei's words, Lin Yaodong shook his head with a helpless smile.

"Director Qi, no, that's not it either."

"The person isn't dead, so why can't we bring them here?"

"Director Qi, from what I understand, Yang Xiaobei was accidentally shot in the head at Guying Ridge that day. Later, I don't know what methods the drug dealers at Guying Ridge used, but they managed to take Yang Xiaobei to Hong Kong."

"Xiangjiang?"

Seeing Qi Tongwei's surprised expression, Lin Yaodong nodded.

"Yes, Director Qi, I heard that after Yang Xiaobei arrived in Hong Kong, she was shot in the head and survived, but she unexpectedly lost her memory."

"Amnesia?"

“That’s right, what happened next was even more bizarre, although it sounds like a story. But Director Qi, I swear what I said afterward is true.”

"You said."

"Yes, later, for some reason, Yang Xiaobei caught the eye of Jiang Tiansheng, the leader of the Hung Hing triad in Hong Kong, and she is now Jiang Tiansheng's girlfriend."

Upon hearing Lin Yaodong's words, Qi Tongwei frowned.

"You mean, Yang Xiaobei lost her memory and then became Jiang Tiansheng's girlfriend?"

"That's right, I bought this information from a Hong Konger at a high price, and it's 100% authentic."

Qi Tongwei now understands very well that Lin Yaodong, who is standing in front of him, is a drug dealer.

However, under the current circumstances, Lin Yaodong could not possibly lie to himself.

In other words, Yang Xiaobei has now truly become Jiang Tiansheng's girlfriend, and thus, the sister-in-law of Hung Hing.

If that's the case, should I still try to bring Yang Xiaobei back?

Should we let her forget the past and live a carefree life as a wealthy wife in Hong Kong?

Or is it the right thing to forcibly bring Yang Xiaobei back and make her put on her armor again to face the test of life and death amidst gunfire?

Qi Tongwei remembers clearly that in the original film "Drug War," not only Yang Xiaobei, but also Zhang Lei, the current captain of the anti-drug squad, sacrificed himself at the end of the film.

If finding oneself ultimately leads to certain death, then isn't letting Yang Xiaobei stay in Hong Kong the best option?

Lin Yaodong looked at Qi Tongwei, who was hesitating, and took a deep breath.

Then, he asked tentatively.

"Director Qi, I brought you some local specialties from Tazhai. Would it be convenient for you to put them in the trunk of your car?"

Upon hearing about the local specialties of Tazhai, Qi Tongwei couldn't help but smile slightly.

"What local specialties did you bring me? Are they drugs you produce yourself?"

Upon hearing Qi Tongwei's words, Lin Yaodong's face turned deathly pale.

"Director Qi, how can you say that? Our Tazhai people are truly all good citizens, our village..."

Before Lin Yaodong could finish speaking, Qi Tongwei waved his hand at him, interrupting him.

Qi Tongwei is not trying to give Lin Yaodong any leeway, but rather he has seen that Lin Yaodong has a complex network of backers, including Sha Ruijin and Liu Yuyan.

Qi Tongwei believed that the Uncle Dong he was facing was definitely the most difficult one to deal with among all the Uncle Dongs in the various timelines.

Because he wove a large net, he dragged many people into the mess.

If Lin Yaodong is forcibly removed, it will inevitably cause a major political upheaval.

Qi Tongwei's foundation is currently unstable, and his own Qi family faction only consists of Ji Changming.

Therefore, Qi Tongwei does not want to confront Lin Yaodong directly at this time.

“Lin Yaodong, you may not believe it, but I know you better than you know yourself.”

Hearing Qi Tongwei say this, Lin Yaodong gasped again.

"Director Qi, of course I believe you have a discerning eye for talent, but I don't know what exactly you want from me?"

"Requirements? No requirements."

As Qi Tongwei spoke, he shook his head with a smile.

"I only have one request for you, that is, don't cause any more trouble before I go to your Tazhai."

Upon hearing Qi Tongwei's words, Lin Yaodong was stunned for a moment.

"Also, take your network of interests back and compile it. When I arrive, if you take the initiative, you might be able to save your life."

Lin Yaodong stood frozen in place, though he desperately wanted to force a smile at Qi Tongwei.

However, his facial muscles just stiffened uncontrollably.

"Director Qi, I will complete all the tasks you have assigned me diligently. Actually, I am also someone who values ​​my life, and I will not cause you any more trouble."

Qi Tongwei was reviewing the documents in his hand, and without looking up, he casually replied.

"Okay, then you can go back now!"

Lin Yaodong had already returned to his car in the parking lot of the Hantong Provincial Police Department.

After Lin Yaodong got into the car, Lin Yaohua, who had been waiting inside, looked at him expectantly.

"Uncle Dong, how did it go? Did you reach an agreement with Director Qi?"

Lin Yaodong raised his hand and waved it slightly.

"Yaohua, drive to the provincial government. I need to see Governor Liu."

Lin Yaohua was taken aback when he heard Lin Yaodong's words.

"Uncle Dong, has it come to this? Didn't Governor Liu say that we shouldn't go to him unless there's something special going on?"

Lin Yaodong took a deep breath.

“Our Tazhai is about to collapse. Only Governor Liu Linzong (Liao Zhaohao) can save us now.”

"What happened? Did things fall apart with Qi Tongwei?"

"Don't ask anymore, let's drive."

Seeing that Lin Yaodong didn't want to say anything more, Lin Yaohua stopped talking.

So he nodded and slowly drove the vehicle toward the provincial government building.

That night, at Zhou Shutong's insistence, Qi Tongwei went to a private room in a restaurant.

When Zhou Shutong's father, Liu Changyong, saw Qi Tongwei, he stood up excitedly.

"Director Qi, let me introduce myself. I am Zhou Shutong's father, Liu Changyong, the captain of the Criminal Investigation Team of the Jin Hai City Police Department. I am your soldier!"

As Liu Changyong spoke, he extended his right hand.

Qi Tongwei simply smiled faintly and politely shook hands with Liu Changyong.

Zhou Shutong stood to the side, her face extremely embarrassed.

What kind of things did he just say because of his own father? It was so humiliating...

Chapter 84 Don't even tell Brother B about this.

After Qi Tongwei sat down, he looked at Zhou Shutong sitting next to him.

"What's wrong? You're usually quite lively, why are you so reserved in front of your dad?"

Upon hearing Qi Tongwei's words, Zhou Shutong blushed and smiled.

"Director Qi, please stop joking with me."

Liu Changyong, who was standing to the side, was particularly nervous because it was his first time meeting Qi Tongwei.

She saw her daughter, and there was such a familiar feeling between her and Qi Tongwei.

Suddenly, my tense nerves relaxed a little.

"Director Qi, my daughter and I invited you to dinner today not for any other reason than to express our gratitude, especially for our work."

Upon hearing this, Qi Tongwei noticed a message above Liu Changyong's head: "Want to join the Qi Family Gang (Gold)".

Upon seeing this entry, Qi Tongwei instantly understood Liu Changyong's purpose.

"Liu Changyong, how old are you this year?"

When Liu Changyong heard Qi Tongwei ask his age, he quickly replied.

"Director Qi, I am already forty-seven years old this year."

He was only forty-seven when he was promoted to the rank of section chief.

To be honest, this is already quite an old age.

However, if Liu Changyong could join the Qi family gang, under Qi Tongwei's manipulation...

As long as you accelerate every step from here on out, it won't be too late.

Qi Tongwei looked at Zhou Shutong beside him, and Zhou Shutong was also looking at Qi Tongwei.

After the two looked at each other for a while, Qi Tongwei asked with a smile.

"Zhou Shutong, do you want your father to join the ministry?"
