Mayor, what's wrong? Lin Libin looked at his leader strangely.
Li Baoguan, that bastard, went to my house. Ning Shuangqi said through gritted teeth. If Li Baoguan was in front of him now, he would want to tear him apart.
How … how could this be? Lin Libin was shocked.
This bastard must have done it on purpose. He turned off his phone and went missing, but in the end, he went to my house. If the police found out, I wouldn't be able to clear my name even if I jumped into the Yellow River. Ning Shuangqi's face was filled with anger.
Lin Libin listened to his leader's anger and could only keep quiet at the side. He couldn't help but criticize Ning Shuangqi's words in his heart. Even if Li Baoguan didn't go to your house, you weren't clean.
It was silent all the way. Because Ning Shuangqi was angry, Lin Libin didn't say much. When they arrived at the Zijing District where Ning Shuangqi lived, Lin Libin carefully looked at Ning Shuangqi and tentatively asked, "Mayor, I'll wait for you downstairs?"
Well, you wait downstairs. Ning Shuangqi hesitated for a moment, then nodded. He liked Lin Libin's quick-wittedness.
Watching the leader enter the building, Lin Libin curled his lips. He thought to himself that as a secretary, he was glorious in front of others, but behind others, he was sad. Being Ning Shuangqi's secretary was not as good as others thought. Now that he had encountered a crisis with Ning Shuangqi, Lin Libin could not help but ponder. He was clear about the relationship between Li Baoguan and Ning Shuangqi. If Ning Shuangqi was dragged into this, he was afraid that he would not be able to stay out of trouble.
Upstairs, Ning Shuangqi lived in Room 808. Li Baoguan and his wife were sitting in the living room.
This was a large duplex apartment. There were no units on either side and it occupied an area by itself. This had to do with the design of the building. Houses like this were usually reserved by the developers from the beginning and not sold to the public. However, if one looked at the property prices here, one would know that the price would be ridiculously expensive. This was because the Zijing District was one of the few high-end districts in Yuntian City. Of course, Ning Shuangqi claimed to the public that the apartment was rented and not owned by herself.
Ning Shuangqi took the elevator upstairs and practically jogged into his home. Then, he shut the door tightly. Seeing Li Baoguan and his wife standing up when they saw him, Ning Shuangqi immediately scolded them. "Li Baoguan, you bastard! Why did you come to my house at this time?"
I can't go anywhere but to your house, Mayor. Li Baoguan looked at Ning Shuangqi pitifully. Ning Shuangqi was so angry as soon as she came back, which really shocked him. After all, she was the mayor and had accumulated a lot of power.
You can go anywhere, but you can't come to my house. Ning Shuangqi said angrily.
Mayor Ning, we were also forced to come here, so we hope that you can understand us. Li Baoguan's wife, Ceng Rong, said. At this point, Ceng Rong wasn't that afraid of Ning Shuangqi anymore. They were already facing the situation of being arrested, so why would they care about the mayor?
Ning Shuangqi glared at Ceng Rong angrily. It wasn't good to get angry at a woman, so Ning Shuangqi didn't say anything else. He had vented a lot of his anger after coming back. Now that he had calmed down a little, Ning Shuangqi also knew that it was useless to get angry at this moment. Anger couldn't solve the problem. The most important thing now was to find a way to solve the problem at hand.
Shuang Qi, what's going on? Zhang Tingxue looked at her husband in confusion.
Tingxue, go back to your room first. I'll talk to them. Ning Shuangqi glanced at his wife and waved his hand. He didn't want her to get involved.
After sending his wife away, Ning Shuangqi then looked at Li Baoguan and his wife again. The two of them looked like they were standing humbly, but Ning Shuangqi didn't like them no matter how he looked at them. Moreover, from their respectful expressions, Ning Shuangqi felt a sense of threat.
Tell me, why did you come to my house? Ning Shuangqi walked to the sofa and sat down.
Mayor, the inspection team has their eyes on me. You should know this. I have no way out now, so I can only come to find you. Li Baoguan told the truth.
How did you know that the inspection team was looking for you? Even I only knew about it after I received a call from Chen Xing. Where did you get the news in advance? Ning Shuangqi stared at Li Baoguan. This was the biggest question in his heart.
I knew that the inspection team had come to Yun Tian two days ago, but I didn't think that they would target me. Li Baoguan smiled bitterly and briefly told him what had happened. "When it was almost noon, when my son went to a woman named Zheng Jing's house, he was ambushed by the people of the inspection team. If he hadn't seen a few gangsters he knew on the street, my son found an excuse to get off the car to go to the toilet, and then ran away with the help of those gangsters, I might have really fallen into the hands of the inspection team."
You've escaped for now, but how long do you think you can hide for? Ning Shuangqi snorted coldly. He was still angry at Li Baoguan for coming to his house at this time. His tone became angry again. You shouldn't have come to my house at this time. What do you mean by this? Are you trying to drag me down with you?
Mayor, no, I didn't mean that. I had no choice but to come to your house. I hope that you can help me. How would I dare to drag you down with me? That won't do me any good. Li Baoguan smiled. Ning Shuangqi suddenly said it so bluntly that Li Baoguan's expression was a little unnatural.
Ning Shuangqi looked at Li Baoguan coldly. He didn't know if Li Baoguan had the guts, but he knew better than anyone that a dog bites when it's cornered.
You said that Zheng Jing is Chen Xing's classmate? Ning Shuangqi suddenly asked.
Yes, that was confirmed by my son from Zheng Jing. Li Baoguan nodded.
So, your matter was caused by your son forcibly occupying someone else's property and then you guys sent him to jail? Ning Shuangqi frowned.
This … this shouldn't be the case. Li Baoguan laughed dryly. Mayor, it's hard to explain this now. I think it's just a coincidence.
Hmph, coincidence? That's easy for you to say. Ning Shuangqi glared at Li Baoguan.
Mayor, no matter what the reason is, things have already come to this. What do you think we should do? Li Baoguan said helplessly.
What should we do? What else can we do? Of all the things you shouldn't have done, you shouldn't have come to my house. Ning Shuangqi scolded angrily.
Mayor Ning, since we're already here, there's no use scolding us now. If scolding us can appease your anger, then scold us a few more times. Ceng Rong sneered.
Ignorant woman. Ning Shuangqi looked at Ceng Rong with a sullen face.
Ceng Rong shrugged her shoulders indifferently after being scolded by Ning Shuangqi. She nudged her husband with her elbow and gave Li Baoguan a look.
Mayor, there's something I don't know if I should say. Li Baoguan saw his wife's hint and quickly said.
If you have something to say, just say it. Ning Shuangqi looked at Li Baoguan.
Mayor, I think that the inspection team couldn't have come to Yun Tian just for a small fish like me. To put it bluntly, I'm just a deputy leader. If they really wanted to take me down, they could have just passed the materials to the local disciplinary committee. Why did they have to mobilize so many people? Li Baoguan stared at Ning Shuangqi and said.
What are you trying to say?
What I want to say is that they might be working on a big case that involves you, Mayor Ning. I'm just a small fish. If they want to take me down, they're just following the clues and digging deeper. Think about it, once I'm involved, many people will be implicated.
