Chapter 2021: Hopes on My Shoulders

“So, do you want to seek justice for the Shi family and Lan Weisong?”

Shi Maowen was furious, but he did not dare to refute the president’s question. He could only explain with a forced smile. “President, this is Lan Weisong’s responsibility. That’s an indisputable fact. But I will definitely investigate the entire case and clear the Wu family’s name. I promise I’ll handle this matter well! I definitely won’t let this have a lasting effect on society. I won’t let Governor Wu, a good official dedicated to serving the country and its people, suffer any injustice! President, please believe me! I’ll definitely handle this matter well.”

The president looked at Shi Maowen, his expression still indifferent. He said, “I hope I won’t have to see the Shi family using their power to silence others ever again. That family will step on their own friends in their climb toward ultimate power.”

“You won’t. Don’t worry, President. This is really just a very unfortunate accident. Even though Lan Weisong is part of the Shi family, his actions don’t speak for them. But I know that no matter how much I explain things to you now, it’ll be useless. So, I ask that you and your colleagues just watch me. I’ll definitely handle this matter well. I’ll give the Wu family and the public a good explanation.”

“Then you can go and handle this matter as well as you claim you will. You don’t have to stay for the rest of the meeting.”

“Yes.” Shi Maowen bowed to the president and his other colleagues again before leaving with a solemn face.

He walked out of the executive hall and got into his car. Only then did he take out his secret phone and dial Lan Weisong’s number.

Lan Weisong was still in the meeting room of the administrative department. He was at a loss for words. When he saw Shi Maowen’s phone call, he left the meeting room, looking as if he had seen his savior. He walked into an empty office, immediately locked the door, and picked up the phone.

“Fourth Young Master, you called at just the right time. Save me! Save me!” Lan Weisong was very afraid. His voice trembled as he spoke.

He did not understand how he had been so sure of victory just a moment ago. The tables had turned on him so quickly.

Only the Shi family could keep this matter under wraps, and even then, it would not be easy. He was afraid that the Shi family would not help him, and he was even more afraid that the Shi family would kick him out.

Therefore, at this moment, Lan Weisong shifted his targets to the Nangong family.

“Nangong Nuannuan is a crazy b*tch! She doesn’t consider the Shi family human at all. Everything was going to plan, and I was very sure I would be able tocapture Wu Jingzhong and Xu Binren in one fell swoop. Once I did, the Shi family would have the final say in Sea District. However, when my people went to investigate the Wu family and find the evidence, Nangong Nuannuan got in the way. Not only did she capture Zhou Wei, but she also hacked me and threatened me to release Wu Jingzhong within a day.

“I’ve already done so much. I carry the Shi family’s and your hopes for me on my shoulders. It wasn’t easy for me to capture Wu Jingzhong, so why should I release him?

“Nangong Nuannuan has really gone too far. After threatening me yesterday afternoon, she called me an hour ago and threatened me a second time. I see that she really thinks of our Shi family as sub-human! I think the Shi and Nangong families are of equal caliber. How can I be threatened by a tiny whippet of a girl?”
