Who will have the last laugh
He Shaochen's appearance made Deputy Director Xiao's expression change drastically.
Qiao Qiao was shocked to see He Shaochen walking towards her. She was still in a daze. He actually came looking for her!
"He Shaochen..." Qiao Qiao suddenly felt touched. The moment she saw him, the string that was still tight just now suddenly loosened.
He Shaochen nodded at her with a gentle expression. Then, he walked over and pulled her into his arms. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Didn't I say that I would rush over immediately? He didn't go back on his word, did he? “
Not only did he not break his promise?
Qiao Qiao nodded heavily. Suddenly, she felt that He Shaochen's image in her heart had become lofty. She smiled and said, "He's like a prince surrounded by light. So handsome!"
He Shaochen was obviously pleased by these words. His thin lips hooked up, with a full smile.
Then, his gaze shifted to Deputy Director Xiao, whose face was pale. His gaze turned cold, and he asked calmly, "Deputy Director Xiao, you haven't answered my question. Do you need me to repeat it?"
It was just a simple question, but it made Deputy Director Xiao, who had put on airs in front of Miss Qiao, tremble all over. The muscles on his face twitched violently as he said, "He Shao, I was just joking with Miss Qiao …"
"Oh?" He Shaochen smiled emotionlessly and said lightly, "But I'm not joking with you."
Deputy Director Xiao trembled even more violently.
He Shaochen's men had all taken control of his subordinates, and now the situation was overwhelmingly in Qiao Qiao's favor.
He Shaochen retracted his gaze and looked at Qiao Qiao. He asked, "How about I leave him to you to deal with?"
"Eh …"
Qiao Qiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this huge difference. She once again experienced the pleasure of power. No wonder so many people would do anything for power. It wasn't without reason.
She saw Deputy Director Xiao looking at her with trepidation, and Qiao Qiao smiled in her heart.
Before He Shaochen came, this person was still calm and collected, with the attitude of a superior. She really thought that this person was really indifferent. She didn't expect that he was also targeting people.
He pretended to be high and mighty in front of people who were lower than him, but when he met people who were richer and more powerful than him, he lowered his head and bowed.
How ironic.
He Shaochen said that he would leave Deputy Director Xiao to him, but Qiao Qiao didn't know what to do.
She lowered her head and pondered for a moment before coming to a decision.
She said to Deputy Director Xiao, "I can let bygones be bygones. I can even plead with He Shaochen about Xiao Ning …"
Deputy Director Xiao looked at her in surprise with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
He Shaochen frowned.
Did this wretched girl have to be so kind? These people made her so miserable? She still wanted to let bygones be bygones. Was she out of her mind?
People could be kind, but if they hurt themselves because of kindness, then it was no longer kindness, but foolishness.
He made up his mind. Even if Qiao Qiao begged him, he wouldn't agree. This wretched girl was stupid, and he couldn't be stupid with her.
However, Qiao Qiao's tone changed. "But Xiao Ning must apologize to me personally and accept the punishment!"
Deputy Director Xiao's smile froze on his face. He Shaochen was still frowning.
Even so, he still felt that it wasn't enough. He still felt that Qiao Qiao had suffered a great grievance.
Qiao Qiao turned to look at him and asked, "You don't have a problem with me doing this, do you?"
He Shaochen looked unhappy. He snorted but didn't object or agree. However, Qiao Qiao knew that he was giving her room to maneuver. As for what she wanted to do, it was up to her.
Qiao Qiao sighed and said to Deputy Director Xiao, "If you agree, today's matter will end here."
Deputy Director Xiao's face darkened. No matter what, he was still in a high position. Now that he was being lectured by two juniors, it was obvious that he couldn't take it lying down.
The more he thought about it, the more upset he felt. In the end, he sneered and said to He Shaochen, "He Shao, although you are the eldest son of He Clan and will be in charge in the future, I am still a Deputy Director. Aren't you being too arrogant by doing this?"
It was reasonable to say that they didn't have a superior and subordinate relationship. However, He Clan's people were involved in various fields of the country and had a lot of connections. In addition, they controlled the economic lifeline. If he wanted to be promoted, huge financial support was necessary. That was why Deputy Director Xiao was afraid.
However, he didn't have to rely on He Clan. He could still be promoted to Director through other channels. Therefore, although Deputy Director Xiao was afraid of He Shaochen, it wasn't that he couldn't afford to offend him.
He Shaochen's dark eyes flashed with a cold light. He chuckled and asked, "So, you are rejecting Qiao Qiao's offer. Can I take it that way?"
Although he was smiling, there was no trace of a smile. Deputy Director Xiao's body couldn't help but tremble again.
He glared fiercely at He Shaochen. He had been in the political scene for so many years. How could he lose to this young boy in terms of aura?
But the reality was that he couldn't.
He Shaochen's imposing manner had been nurtured since he was a child. His behavior and behavior were all raised according to the standards of a superior person. It was difficult for someone like Deputy Director Xiao, who had climbed up step by step from the bottom, to imitate He Shaochen's style.
"Let's go." He Shaochen led Qiao Qiao and prepared to leave.
"Leaving just like that?"
Qiao Qiao thought that He Shaochen would negotiate with Deputy Director Xiao. Judging from Deputy Director Xiao's tone, he didn't seem to be afraid of him. So, who was more powerful, He Shaochen or Deputy Director Xiao?
Qiao Qiao couldn't figure it out.
"Do you really want to stay for dinner?" He Shaochen's words made Qiao Qiao speechless.
After the two of them left, Deputy Director Xiao's legs turned to jelly, and he sat back down on the stool. His forehead was covered with sweat.
His heart was beating wildly, and he couldn't calm down for a long time. His face was gloomy.
It wasn't certain who would have the last laugh. His Clan? Just wait and see!
But at that moment, Deputy Director Xiao didn't know that Yu Pingfeng, who had been his subordinate for half a month, was about to bring him a disaster.
It wasn't that he didn't know who would have the last laugh, and it was never up to him to decide. Because there was only one person who would have the last laugh, and that was He Shaochen.
After the negotiation with He Shaochen fell through, Deputy Director Xiao went straight to the prison.
Xiao Ning's situation was very bad these days. Because Director Ye had informed her, the prison guards didn't treat her well at all because she was Deputy Director Xiao's daughter. Her food was terrible.
Her face was pale, and her hair was disheveled. She didn't look like her usual swaggering self.
"Xiao Ning, come out." The prison guard's voice was cold. Xiao Ning was terrified of these people these days. She once saw a person who spoke out against these people, and in the end, he was beaten half to death. She hadn't seen that person's shadow in the past few days.
Xiao Ning walked out, trembling with fear. After walking down a corridor, she looked up and saw Deputy Director Xiao looking at her through the glass.
