Chapter 1827: Warning

Liu Fusheng said, "The favor I want my cousin to help me with is related to the Second Young Master Tang. I'm sure my cousin won't refuse, right?"

Bai Rufeng nodded and said, "As long as it is good for the Bai family and does not violate party discipline and national laws, I will definitely cooperate with Secretary Liu."

Liu Fusheng said: "Okay, the heat is not yet enough, please wait for my news, cousin."

Bai Rufeng said, "No problem. I still have official business to attend to, so I won't see Secretary Liu off. Bye."

Liu Fusheng smiled slightly. This Bai Rufeng was really a stubborn person. He had obviously been beaten to a pulp by him, but he always addressed himself as Secretary Liu from beginning to end, as if warning him that he was not a member of the Bai family yet and should not be so ruthless in doing things.

Watching Liu Fusheng slowly leaving the office, Bai Rufeng seemed to be exhausted. He leaned back in his chair and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Liu Fusheng’s performance just now had already frightened him.

The deal between him and Tang Shaoxiong was extremely secretive, but Liu Fusheng knew it so clearly.

Once Li Jianjun withdraws from the investigation and proves his innocence, he will be in an absolutely passive position.

Therefore, Bai Rufeng must listen to Liu Fusheng and cooperate with Liu Fusheng, perhaps there is still a way out. If he refuses to cooperate, there will be a dead end ahead.

……

When Liu Fusheng returned to Chaojiang, the first thing he did was to find Chen Zixing, the secretary of the Jiangtou Municipal Party Committee.

Chen Zixing was very polite to Liu Fusheng, but his words were a bit slippery and he didn't say any valuable information.

Liu Fusheng thought for a moment and asked, "Secretary Chen has been working in Jiangtou City for many years, right?"

Chen Zixing said: "Yes, I have been working in Jiangtou City. Thanks to the support of the leaders and the love of the people, I have come to where I am today step by step."

Liu Fusheng said: "So Secretary Chen has made an indelible contribution to the development of Jiangtou City."

Chen Zixing said modestly: "No matter where, we are all serving the people."

The two spoke in a neutral tone, as if they were competing to see who could keep calm longer.

Liu Fusheng sighed and said, "Someone told me that Secretary Chen has a very good relationship with Deputy Secretary Tang of Guangdong Province. Because of this, Secretary Chen was able to rise to the top in just a few years and became the top leader of Jiangtou City."

Chen Zixing's face changed slightly: "Secretary Liu, it's better not to listen to these rumors. Do you think I'm the kind of villain who relies on currying favor with leaders to get to the top?"

Chen Zixing's words were a routine counterattack. If the other party had evidence, he would directly produce the evidence. If he had no evidence, he could only apologize immediately and change the subject and talk about something else.

Chen Zixing didn't expect that Liu Fusheng didn't play by the rules at all. He nodded and said, "Yes, that's what I really think."

Chen Zixing was stunned. What did Liu Fusheng mean? Was he going to break up with him?

Could it be that he has evidence that I am currying favor with Tang Shaoying?

No, there is nothing wrong with currying favor with the leader. This alone cannot give Liu Fusheng the confidence to turn against him.

While Chen Zixing was thinking about the problem, Liu Fusheng continued, "People go to higher places and water flows to lower places. This is a normal phenomenon. Secretary Chen wants to make progress and maintain close relationships with some leaders. This is understandable. I can understand it."

Do you understand why you talk so much nonsense?

Chen Zixing said in a deep voice: "Secretary Liu, what do you mean by saying this? If you think there is something wrong with me, please show me the relevant evidence. If you are just joking, then this joke is not funny at all. Instead, it makes me feel insulted. I hope Secretary Liu can apologize to me for this matter."

Chen Zixing's words were quite firm.

Liu Fusheng said calmly: "Secretary Chen, you misunderstood. I said this not to insult you, but to remind you. After all, some things can be used as a life-saving straw."

Chen Zixing frowned: "What life-saving straw?"

Liu Fusheng said with a smile: "You are in great danger now. If you have any tricks, use them now. If you don't, you may not have another chance!"

Chen Zixing was terrified, but he pretended to be calm on the surface: "Secretary Liu, please don't be so mysterious."

Liu Fusheng said: "I have always had a good relationship with Chen Minghao, the general manager of Shengtang Group's Chaojiang branch. We performed skydiving together and created the Chen Minghao spin that made Mr. Chen famous all over the world."

Chen Zixing said: "What does this have to do with my impending disaster?"

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "Chen Minghao's last name is Chen, and Secretary Chen's last name is also Chen. When I was chatting with Mr. Chen, I mentioned these things before. Guess what Mr. Chen said?"

"I'd like to hear the details." Chen Zixing waited patiently for him to continue.

Liu Fusheng said: "Mr. Chen told me that he is a member of the Chen clan. Secretary Chen personally presided over the ceremony for him to recognize his ancestors. His name has been written into the Chen family genealogy."

"..."

Liu Fusheng's words made Chen Zixing's eyes widen.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with this matter. Chen Zixing even hopes to make it public.

After all, Chen Minghao is a successful businessman and holds a senior executive position in a company as large as Shengtang Group. If people spread the word about him, it will also bring honor to the Chen clan.

However, Chen Minghao had concerns. After recognizing his ancestral roots, he repeatedly told Chen Zixing that the matter must not be made public, otherwise he would have to withdraw from the Chen family and make a public statement to the society. That would not be a credit to the Chen family, but would bring shame to it.

Chen Zixing knew that there were some grievances between his own elders and Chen Minghao's elders, and he thought that Chen Minghao was just taking care of the emotions of his parents' generation, so he didn't think too much about it.

But now, he never thought that Chen Minghao would actually tell Liu Fusheng about this matter.

Chen Zixing was confused, but he couldn't help but answer Liu Fusheng's question.

Since Chen Minghao had already said it, there was no need for him to keep it secret any longer: "That's what happened."

Liu Fusheng said: "So, Secretary Chen is in big trouble."

Chen Zixing said, "I beg you, please stop keeping me in suspense. I am tired of listening."

What does Chen Minghao's joining the Chen clan have to do with his currying favor with Tang Shaoying? Which of these two things violated the party's discipline and the law of the country?

Liu Fusheng said, "Secretary Chen, Chen Minghao has done a lot of things behind your back. I advise you to cut ties with him as soon as possible... If we hadn't worked together for so long and had a certain emotional foundation, I wouldn't have bothered to remind you of this kind of thing."

"Could it be that Chen Minghao has committed a crime that could even bring harm to the Chen family?"

Chen Zixing asked in disbelief.

Liu Fusheng said: "That's right. The mastermind behind the arson case in Jiangtou City is most likely this executive of Shengtang Group."

Chen Zixing shook his head and said, "No way? Chen Minghao is just a businessman, and he has just arrived in Chaojiang District. He has no conflict of interest with the special task force of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. How could he take such a huge risk to plan an arson case?"
