From the photos provided by Wu Zhiqi, it was indeed suspicious that Zhou Yihong and He Ying had some sort of relationship. However, Lu Tao knew that there was something going on between Zhou Yihong and He Ying. There was no way they were lovers …
After looking at all the photos carefully, Lu Tao asked, "Chief Wu, where did you get these photos?"
Wu Zhiqi had a ferocious look on his face as he explained the origin of the photos in a furious tone.
As it turned out, he had failed to catch He Ying and Zhou Yihong in the Green Coast Mansion. The next day, after he found traces of Zhou Yihong by checking the neighborhood's CCTV, he found a small company that engaged in illegal secret investigations and hired a so-called "investigator" from the company. He arranged for the investigator to follow He Ying and Zhou Yihong's whereabouts. Soon, he made a major discovery.
One day in mid-July, the investigator followed Zhou Yihong and He Ying to Songshan City's Hongsha County. However, they didn't enter the city. Instead, they went to a cemetery in the suburbs. The investigator didn't follow Zhou Yihong and He Ying into the cemetery because he was worried that following them too closely would arouse suspicion. He only took photos of them getting into and out of the car …
One day in early August, the investigator followed He Ying to the provincial capital and booked a room in the hotel where she was staying to keep an eye on her. At around nine o 'clock at night, Zhou Yihong arrived at the hotel and entered He Ying's room. He didn't leave until ten thirty …
One day in September, Zhou Yihong used the opportunity of inspecting Taolin County to sneak into Green Coast Luxury Mansion at around nine o 'clock at night. He entered He Ying's room and didn't leave until eleven o' clock …
According to Wu Zhiqi, other than the photos, he also had some videos that could prove Zhou Yihong and He Ying's "rendezvous" …
After Lu Tao finished looking at the photos, Wu Zhiqi said angrily, "Chief Lu, that old bastard Zhou Yihong is too much! Not only did he steal my wife, but he also used his power to suppress my promotion. He's too despicable, too evil! I know you have a good relationship with him, but I still have to say this. I'm not afraid that you'll tell him. Also, I'd like to remind you that Zhou Yihong's character and morals are rotten. He's been in Songshan for less than a year, but he's already left a bad reputation among the masses. Most of the leaders in Songshan have opinions about him. I reckon that he won't be able to stay in his position for long. Director Lu, you have to understand the situation clearly. It's best to draw a clear line between you and Zhou Yihong as soon as possible. Otherwise, it's very likely that it will affect your future … "
Li Xiangdu saw that the more he spoke, the more explicit and agitated he became. He couldn't help but frown. He coughed lightly and interrupted him, "Section Chief Wu, regarding Secretary Zhou's evaluation and the conflict between the leaders of the Municipal Party Committee, we shouldn't easily believe the rumors. Even if you hear some news, you have to speak carefully. Otherwise, trouble may come from the loose lips. It's fortunate that Director Lu and I heard what you said. If it were someone else and they really went to Secretary Zhou to complain about you, you might not even be able to keep your current position. "
Lu Tao knew that Li Xiangdu's words were to shut him up, so he smiled and said, "Director Li, Section Chief Wu, don't worry. I hate people who complain about others behind their backs. I'll keep Section Chief Wu's words to myself and won't report it to Secretary Zhou. However, I'd like to know, how did Secretary Zhou suppress Section Chief Wu's promotion? "
Li Xiangdu explained, "Last month, the Municipal Bureau of Cultural Affairs wanted to promote a Deputy Director. Mayor Li Haiping personally recommended Section Chief Wu to the Municipal Party Committee. After a democratic evaluation and inspection, Section Chief Wu was selected as the Deputy Director. However, Zhou Yihong insisted on not promoting Section Chief Wu during the five-man committee meeting. The reason was that Section Chief Wu's character wasn't good, he was narrow-minded, and his work performance wasn't outstanding. Because of his objection, the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and the Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection all agreed with his opinion and directly rejected Section Chief Wu. "
Wu Zhiqi angrily interrupted, "Zhou Yihong rejected my nomination to be the Deputy Director. In fact, it proves that he has an affair with He Ying. Director Lu, think about it. Zhou Yihong and I don't know each other. He doesn't even know me. If he didn't have an affair with He Ying, why would he say that I have a bad character and narrow-minded? I think these words were all said by that stinky He Ying.
Bitch.
She blew wind on his pillow. Stinky.
Bitch.
Zixin is too cruel. She has an affair, and in turn, she wants to put her own husband to death. She's simply the modern version of Pan Jinlian! "
Lu Tao heard him repeatedly call He Ying a "stinky bitch."
Bitch.
He frowned and wanted to scold him, but on second thought, he controlled himself and asked calmly, "Section Chief Wu, you specially came here today to look for me and even brought me two cartons of cigarettes. Don't tell me you're here to complain to me and tell me that Secretary Zhou and Political Commissar He are having an affair? If there's anything you need me to do, feel free to tell me. "
Wu Zhiqi glanced at Li Xiangdu and saw him nod slightly. Wu Zhiqi said, "Director Lu, I did come here today to ask you for a favor. I firmly believe that when I went to Green Coast Mansion to catch the adulterers, Zhou Yihong was hiding in my house. According to my brother, when I went downstairs to call someone, He Ying called you into her room and closed the door. You stayed in the room for more than ten minutes. If I'm not wrong, you must have seen Zhou Yihong at that time and helped He Ying move Zhou Yihong.
"I don't have any other requests. I just want you to be a witness to prove that you saw Zhou Yihong in my house that night. Now, I have already collected photos of Zhou Yihong and He Ying fooling around together, but these photos can only prove that they are intimate. They can't prove the fact that they are having an affair. However, if you stand up and testify that they were alone in the room that night and locked the door, you will have all the evidence. They won't be able to deny it even if they want to. "
Lu Tao saw that Wu Zhiqi had actually come up with such a clumsy and childish idea. He wanted him to stand up and testify that Secretary Zhou and He Ying were having an affair. Lu Tao despised Wu Zhiqi even more, but he said politely, "Section Chief Wu, I'm really sorry. I can't be your witness because I really didn't see Secretary Zhou in your house that night. At that time, Political Commissar He asked me to go in because she wanted to tell me about the conflicts and disagreements between the two of you. At the same time, she wanted to give her courage because she was worried that you would kick the door and beat her up again. As for the affair between her and Secretary Zhou, I only learned about it from you today. I've always lived next door to her, and we often talk, but I really didn't find anything between her and Secretary Zhou. "
Wu Zhiqi looked extremely disappointed. He wanted to persuade Lu Tao again, but Li Xiangdu stopped him.
