Chapter 228: Visitors Arrive
“Don’t splash shit here! When Father was playing this trick, you were fucking playing with piss in the mud!”
Ding Mocun glared at Director Li and cursed, “Yu Xiangqin is your woman, you’ve known her for 8 years, not 8 days!
You want to find the Military Statistics Bureau Shanghai District through her, if you really wanted to find it you would’ve found it long ago! Just find any excuse to let Yu Xiangqin set up and lure their division chief out, and you can easily pull out a string!
Why not do it? Isn’t it because you’re secretly letting your woman work, selling out Shanghai’s intelligence to Boss Dai on the surface, acting as a two-faced traitor, trying to please both sides?
You think your little schemes can fool who?
And you still want to pin the shit pot on my head?
What the hell are you!”
Director Li’s anger was also about to erupt, “You’re really an idiot, Yu Xiangqin is not my woman!”
“You fucking opened a room and slept with her, you think I don’t know?” Ding Mocun retorted.
Director Li was just about to speak.
Gu Yansheng, who was watching the show, saw the woman coming from the door and stammered a bit, “Sister-in-law.”
Behind Ye Jiqing was also a female staff member, this woman seemed to be Director Li’s secretary, Gu Yansheng had seen her, but now looking at her expression, she was about to cry.
Ye Jiqing’s expression was somewhat solemn, staring at Ding Mocun and asked: “What woman? Who did Director Li sleep with?”
“Yo, sister-in-law is here.” Ding Mocun’s attitude suddenly improved, he sighed and tsked, “Sister-in-law, Director Li has a mistress from the Military Statistics Bureau outside, called Yu Xiangqin, and she’s also a senior lawyer.
You shouldn’t blame him too much for this, men, you know, home flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers, seeing an old lover, old feelings reignite, couldn’t hold back, it’s inevitable, he hasn’t gone many times, from what I’ve seen, he only stayed in the hotel for two hours.”
“She’s not my woman, Ding Mocun, don’t stir up trouble here!”
Ye Jiqing ignored Director Li’s anger, just with an expression of neither joy nor sorrow, staring at Ding Mocun, “What woman, what old feelings reignite, do you have documents?”
“Yes, I’ll get you the documents.” Ding Mocun quickly took out a folder and handed it to Ye Jiqing.
Ye Jiqing silently flipped through the documents, then raised her head and stared at Director Li, “Where is this woman?”
Director Li had a helpless expression and explained: “Don’t listen to his nonsense, she’s not my woman.”
“I asked you where she is.”
“I don’t know!”
“You’re good, you’re really good.” Ye Jiqing sneered, suddenly slamming the folder onto Director Li, “How much have I done for you, and this is how you treat me?”
“What did I do? This matter is not what you think.”
“Then what is it? I’m asking you now, where is this bitch? Why are you panicking?”
“I’m not panicking! How would I know where this bitch is, and besides, she’s not a bitch.”
“So you’re speaking from the heart, huh, protecting her so much, Director Li! I’ve followed you through life and death, given you my money and my life, and now this is how you treat me?”
A cursing battle ensued immediately.
Gu Yansheng now had time to ask this little secretary, “Was the show good? Who told you to bring sister-in-law here.”
The little secretary felt wronged, “I accompanied Division Chief Ye upstairs, and happened to see Director Li storming over here angrily, Division Chief Ye wanted to come see for herself, it wasn’t me who called her.”
You accompanied Division Chief Ye upstairs, this little secretary is probably specially sent by Ye Jiqing to keep an eye on Director Li.
“Go call Wu Sibao over.”
“Yes.”
“Also, tell those people to shut their mouths, don’t spread idle talk outside.”
“Yes.”
Afterwards.
Wu Sibao dragged Ye Jiqing away.
Gu Yansheng dragged Director Li away.
Director Li sat in his own office, full of pent-up frustration and anger.
His face still faintly hurt, it was scratched by Ye Jiqing.
Gu Yansheng had to reproach him a few times, “Sigh, Director Li, why did you have to mess with a woman from the Military Statistics Bureau, if you’d picked anyone else, Ding Mocun wouldn’t have photos of you.”
“I didn’t mess with her! I’ve said it several times, I wasn’t there to mess around! It was for work! Why don’t you believe me, why side with Ding Mocun?” Director Li was burning with anger.
“What do you mean side with you?” Gu Yansheng was unhappy to hear that, although it was true, it was not his intention, “If you hadn’t provoked Ding Mocun, I’d be too lazy to get involved in your infighting crap!
If I didn’t get involved, Ding Mocun was ready to report this to the Japanese! If this guy gets dragged into the Japanese interrogation room, can you escape responsibility? Wasn’t I just trying to cover for you?
I spent so much effort persuading Ding Mocun to hold back, and now you blame me for getting involved? Do you have any reason or not?”
“I really…” Director Li was so angry he laughed, rubbing his forehead to calm down, finally suppressing his turbulent emotions.
Calming his tone, he said properly to Gu Yansheng: “Yes, I do know Yu Xiangqin, but it’s definitely not the kind of man-woman relationship you all think.”
Gu Yansheng sneered, “What other relationship can there be between man and woman? You gonna tell me it’s pure friendship?”
Director Li’s words were on the tip of his tongue, then he swallowed them back, “This matter is very complicated, can’t explain it in a short time.”
Gu Yansheng saw he wouldn’t say and didn’t bother to press, “Alright, no need to explain to me, I don’t care which woman you sleep with, I just ask, can you and Ding Mocun ease your relationship?”
“No!” Director Li was firm on this, frowning coldly as he said: “He ruined my good thing, and I should still give him face? No such good deal in the world!”
Gu Yansheng got angry upon hearing that, “I was the one who mediated this, I stepped in to suppress the evidence in his hands, and now you’re making it hard for me?”
Director Li frowned, he did have to consider Gu Yansheng’s attitude, thought for a moment and said: “We’ll talk after this period passes.
I really need a lot of manpower right now, I’m digging out the entire Shanghai District bit by bit, you know how many people I need?
He doesn’t do work himself anyway, I borrow a few of his people, where does he get so many opinions?”
Gu Yansheng was blunt, “Don’t make it sound so noble, can’t you recruit your own? You’re just robbing his people, you think I can’t see that?”
Director Li stopped arguing, “Fine, my fault, one week, I’ll return the people to him, alright?”
Alright my ass, Gu Yansheng was still unsatisfied, “Next time you beg me to mediate, I won’t do it, you two are both troublemakers.”
Knock knock knock, knocking sounded.
“What is it?” Director Li barked.
The subordinate bowed his head and reported: “Director, number three has been brought back.”
Director Li instantly switched to work mode, stood up and said: “Don’t send to the interrogation room, send to the reception room, did you bring his family documents? Is there a radio?”
The subordinate reported: “Follow-up personnel are intensifying the search, we brought him back first to prevent accidents.”
“Mm, good, send him to the reception room and watch him, I’ll be right there.”
“Yes.”
Director Li saw the subordinate leave, turned to Gu Yansheng and said: “See, I’m doing work, not dating.”
Gu Yansheng sneered, walked over and patted his shoulder, smiled and said: “You can fool your brothers, but think about how to fool your woman.”
Director Li looked speechlessly at the clearly disbelieving Gu Yansheng.
Gu Yansheng left, looking down from upstairs, he saw a man being brought in from the car in the courtyard.
Wearing a suit, with glasses, under thirty years old.
Gu Yansheng glanced once and didn’t look again, went to eat with Ding Mocun.
“Let’s go, to my place, time for proper business.”
Ding Mocun was in a good mood now, regardless of whether Director Li was telling the truth or not, he had gained something.
If it was true, he’d ruined Director Li’s merit, if fake, he’d still watched the big tantrum drama, absolutely not a loss.
“What did he say?”
“One week later, he’ll return the people to you.”
Hearing that, Ding Mocun was even happier, “Haha, Yansheng, you’re the reliable one.”
“Doing some business and getting squeezed by you guys, do you know how hard it is for me?”
Went back to the tea house for the address, the room arranged by Ma Shiqi was ready long ago, when Gu Yansheng arrived, someone reported that Ma Shiqi had come to relay the message.
Took the address and set off directly, the residential building location was in Zhabei.
After Gu Yansheng arrived, Ma Shiqi got off the car at the door and reported to him.
“Division chief, the person lives not far, can bring him over anytime.”
“Mm.” Gu Yansheng acknowledged, said to Ding Mocun, “Then I’ll go in first, you come in after you see the person arrive?”
“Sure.”
“Let’s go.”
Gu Yansheng walked through the courtyard gate, Ma Shiqi whispered a report: “All prepared, I tested it personally, no problem.”
Gu Yansheng showed no reaction, walked into the room, an ordinary house with front and back rooms, wine and dishes already on the table.
Ma Shiqi lifted the curtain to the inner room, gestured to the cabinet against the right wall, then opened the cabinet door to let Gu Yansheng see, inside was a tape recorder.
The tape recorder’s size wasn’t too big now, length about as long as a forearm, but if not hidden, it would be too disrespectful to people’s eyes.
Gu Yansheng nodded up, signaling he could start.
Ma Shiqi nodded and walked out.
Fifteen minutes later, two footsteps entered the room, from the low voices judging, it should be the CC people and the middleman Zheng Weimin arranged by Ma Shiqi.
Just two minutes later, another set of footsteps, Ding Mocun walked in.
“Wu Kaixian? The one who came is actually you?” Ding Mocun’s surprised voice rang out.
“Hahaha, Mocun, long time no see.” Wu Kaixian’s hearty laugh rang out.
“I really didn’t expect CC to send you to Shanghai, you’re the organization’s vice minister.”
“Haha, since my little brother invited me, if Chongqing sent some small fry, wouldn’t that be slighting you, Director Ding?”
“Impressive, entering the tiger’s den, come, please sit, eat and talk.”
“Good.”
Ding Mocun poured a glass of wine and asked: “CC sending you this time, probably not just for business matters, right?”
Wu Kaixian smiled faintly without speaking, glanced at the person nearby.
Ding Mocun smiled indifferently, “Rest assured, brother, one of us, he handles the business, he’ll know plenty in the future.”
That’s the reason, but Wu Kaixian was cautious, smiled and said: “I still have some words with you, little brother, how about we step aside? Some things really don’t need so many people knowing.”
“Sure, let’s step aside.”
Ding Mocun didn’t know what was worth stepping aside for, the biggest ears were right next door anyway.
