The Bureau Chief looked at Tang Zheng and didn't answer the question directly. Instead, he asked, "Then, do you think I should believe him?"
"If it's a foolish person, he will naturally believe it. If it's a wise person, he will scoff at it," Tang Zheng said bluntly.
Other people would be in awe of high-ranking officials, but Tang Zheng was already holding back his anger. He didn't hold back at all when he spoke.
The Bureau Chief's eyelids twitched and returned to normal. He said earnestly, "Tang Zheng, things aren't as simple as you think. You're too young."
Tang Zheng curled his lips and sneered. "Then, you don't believe me?"
"So what if I believe you?" The Bureau Chief stared at Tang Zheng with a burning gaze.
"If you believe me, then kill Xing Feng and take revenge for those who died unjustly," Tang Zheng said firmly.
The Bureau Chief chuckled. "Is this the result you want?"
"The heavens are clear. Xing Feng brought this upon himself. Why can't I?" Tang Zheng retorted.
"The heavens, hehe …" The Bureau Chief laughed meaningfully. "Ask Xu Yingtian to come and see me. I'll tell him that I'll return everything he lost to him."
The government didn't know that Xu Yingtian was already dead.
Tang Zheng's expression darkened. "He's dead."
≧,
"Dead?" The Bureau Chief was stunned. Xing Feng's report was that Xu Yingtian and his gang attacked the Dragon Team and escaped after killing and arson.
"Yes, it's all Xing Feng's fault. So, I must get justice for him." Tang Zheng's gaze was firm. The Bureau Chief was slightly moved.
"Nonsense. A bunch of people are fooling around. We're all from the same root. Why are you in such a hurry to kill each other?" The Bureau Chief slammed the desk and said angrily.
"Some people don't think that we're all from the same root. We've tolerated him time and time again, but what we got in return was Xing Feng's arrogance. Not only did he abandon his comrades in the middle of the sea and flee, but now he's trying to kill his comrades. This kind of person is a scourge in this world."
The Bureau Chief was silent, and his eyes kept changing. As a leader, he was naturally more intelligent than others. From the fact that Xu Yingtian and the rest had returned to the capital safely, it had already explained many things.
Xing Feng's report could not be trusted. There must have been many unknown things happening on the sea. Xing Feng had deliberately concealed the truth.
But so what?
The government chose to believe Xing Feng's words. If they immediately investigated him, wouldn't it be a slap to their own face?
Although they were fighting tigers everywhere and controlling corruption, they could not let the government lose face. Otherwise, the gains would not make up for the losses. No one could bear this responsibility.
"Tang Zheng, you go back first. After we've done our research, we'll naturally come up with a countermeasure. We won't let those people die in vain." The Bureau Chief comforted him.
Tang Zheng was greatly disappointed. Xu Yingtian was right about this result.
The so-called research was just an excuse. They must have weighed the pros and cons. In the end, it was still impossible to conclude what would happen to Xing Feng. Moreover, Xing Feng had the support of a high-ranking official. He would not watch as his people were destroyed.
Seeing Tang Zheng's nonchalant expression, the Bureau Chief's eyes turned cold. He said sternly, "Tang Zheng, Xing Feng is an official. If he has done anything wrong, the government will come to a conclusion and punish him severely. Do you understand?"
What he meant was to remind Tang Zheng not to act rashly.
Tang Zheng did not comment and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."
Seeing Tang Zheng resolutely turn and leave, the Bureau Chief leaned back and leaned against the leather chair. He pinched his eyebrows and thought to himself.
Xu Yingtian had once strongly recommended Tang Zheng and felt that the government should rope him in. This person was born and raised under the red flag. He still had feelings for the country.
If he could rope in such a strong helper, it would definitely be beneficial to the country.
But Tang Zheng's only flaw was that he was too undisciplined. He did not have the sense of restraint of a soldier. If he thought of something, he would do it himself. He might not even inform the government. He did not even respect the powerful officials.
This was the pros and cons. If it was not used properly, there would be problems. But if it was just right, it would be of great use.
But the government had never come to a conclusion on how to treat Tang Zheng. Seeing Tang Zheng's performance today, the Bureau Chief regretfully shook his head and drew a big "x" on the paper.
Outside the courtyard, Tang Zheng saw Martial. Martial immediately asked about the situation.
Tang Zheng shook his head with a serious expression and said, "It's not optimistic. It seems that the government will not touch Xing Feng for the time being."
"Then what should we do?"
Tang Zheng was silent, but he had already made up his mind. The government would not care, but he would not forget Xu Yingtian's dying instructions.
"Let's go home first. We've been out for so long this time. They must be very worried." Tang Zheng said.
When the two of them pushed open the door, everyone was stunned. Their expressions were different, but Nanna was the first to react. Her figure flashed and she flew into his embrace. She hugged his neck and rubbed her head non-stop. She was overjoyed and said, "Brother, you're finally back. Nanna missed you so much."
Looking at her delicate face, the killing intent in his heart was temporarily thrown to the back of his mind. He carried her and walked towards the crowd. Seeing that everyone's expression was strange, he could not help but ask, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Wah!"
Fang Shishi's tears flowed out of her eyes as she tightly hugged Tang Zheng. She and Nanna occupied his left and right.
"Wuwuwu, I knew you weren't dead. It's great that you're back."
Tang Zheng was confused. "Someone said I was dead?"
Fang Shishi nodded with tears of joy. "The government said you died in battle. I knew they were lying. You promised me that you would come back. You wouldn't lie to me."
Tang Zheng was shocked. The government had actually judged him as a dead man. They must have been under a lot of pressure. He patted her back and said guiltily, "It's all my fault. Don't cry. Didn't I come back safe and sound?"
He gently wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes. He was extremely distressed. He looked up at the others and found that apart from the Empyrean Fairy, everyone else's eyes were red. This was especially true for Liu Qingmei. Her eyes were filled with tears and her legs were trembling. She wanted nothing more than to throw herself into Tang Zheng's arms.
But she resisted. After all, there were so many people present and her identity was too special.
Princess Anne wiped the corner of her eyes and revealed a relieved smile. "Master said before that you were an unkillable cockroach. She was right."
Mu Hongyan's body went soft and sank into the sofa. During this period of time, she had been under more pressure than anyone else. This was because she had a heavy burden on her shoulders. She had to wake up early and sleep late every day. She was so busy.
Perhaps, only when she was busy could she forget about Tang Zheng.
Now that she saw him standing in front of her alive, her heart fiercely beat. Many emotions intertwined and mixed together.
"I'm really sorry for making everyone worry." Tang Zheng said guiltily.
"Your safe return is the most important. There's no need to say these words."
"Yes, everyone is happy that you're safe."
Everyone was talking at once, but it was difficult to express the joy in their hearts.
Only the Empyrean Fairy, Fu Yao, was the calmest. She glanced at him indifferently and then turned her attention to the TV. This was because she had never believed the news of Tang Zheng's death.
Fang Shishi was reluctant to leave Tang Zheng. She kept hugging his arm as if she was afraid that in the blink of an eye, he would disappear again. After confirming that all this was not a dream, her heart felt a lot more at ease. The corner of her mouth hung a smile of regaining what she had lost.
Everyone gathered together. Tang Zheng asked in detail about what had happened during this period of time. When he learned that his death had caused so many disturbances, he could not help but sigh.
If he did not show up, he was afraid that there would really be a big problem. Those who were lurking in the dark would really not be able to hold back and take action. Perhaps it would even endanger their safety.
"Sister Mu, you've worked hard during this period of time. You've supported all the matters of the group." Tang Zheng said sincerely.
Mu Hongyan recovered her mood. She smiled faintly and said: "This is not just my credit. There is the support of all the colleagues in the company. In addition, in the end, I need the help of the Yan family, Ye Tianlei and Qingmei. Only then can I persist and let the company operate normally."
Tang Zheng nodded. He already knew that Ye Tianlei and Liu Qingmei had also joined the group.
In fact, he was not very relieved that Liu Qingmei was working in other places. After all, the workplace was like a battlefield. There were too many traps. He was not willing to let Liu Qingmei take risks.
But in the past, she did a good job, so it was not easy to persuade her to come to his group. This time, she actually took the initiative to join, which was an unexpected surprise.
Tang Zheng's head warmed. He nodded towards Liu Qingmei and said: "Sister Mei, thank you."
His relationship with Liu Qingmei was not made public, so it was not good to be too intimate in front of everyone.
Liu Qingmei suppressed the impulse in her heart and pretended to be calm as she said: "This is what I should do." Finished speaking, she looked at Tang Zheng and smiled affectionately.
All the words and affection were vividly expressed in this smile. Tang Zheng understood her smile and wished that he could immediately hug her tightly in his arms.
Fang Shishi looked at the two thoughtfully but did not say anything. She was a smart girl and remembered everything. Of course, she guessed some things but did not point it out.
As long as Tang Zheng was by her side, it was the greatest satisfaction. Subconsciously, she hugged Tang Zheng tighter and let his arm press on her chest.
"Brother, Nanna is also very powerful. I didn't slack off. Master often praises me for my great progress." Seeing others chatting enthusiastically with Tang Zheng, Nanna did not want to fall behind and said.
"Really?" Tang Zheng pretended to be surprised and asked. In fact, when he entered the door, he saw the changes in her body. She was already a real cultivator. At such a young age, she had already reached the sixth grade of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
It must be known that she had not been apprenticed for long. Even Tang Zheng did not have such a fast cultivation speed.
He could not help but admire her. If he had taught Nanna at the beginning, he would not have such a good effect. The Empyrean Fairy could be said to have devoted all her efforts to Nanna. A famous teacher produces a brilliant student. This sentence was really true.
Nanna's progress could be said to be heaven defying.
It seemed that the Empyrean Fairy was not lying. Nanna's physique was indeed suitable for cultivation. However, although her cultivation was high, she was still young, so she did not have much attack power.
