Chapter 755: Preparing to Start Work

30 minutes later.

Sun Qiang, beaten black and blue, was hiding in a corner, no longer daring to be arrogant.

Trembling with fear, he waited until all the inmates in the room fell asleep before carefully getting up and slowly moving to an empty bed nearby.

After lying down, this young master curled up into a ball and cried pitifully.

In all his life, he had never suffered such humiliation.

He resented his family for not coming to bail him out yet.

At the same time, he cursed the inmates in his mind, thinking that when he got out, he would definitely find someone to kill them.

As Sun Qiang was about to fall asleep in a daze, he suddenly felt someone undressing him.

Sun Qiang thought he was having a nightmare and opened his eyes slightly.

As a result, he saw the cell boss who had just beaten him staring at him lustfully.

Sun Qiang instantly lost all drowsiness. He opened his mouth wide to scream, but was silenced by the other's hand covering his mouth.

"Shut up!"

A sharpened toothbrush was pressed against his neck.

"If you dare to make a sound, I'll stab you to death."

Sun Qiang turned pale with fright, desperately making muffled cries, his eyes full of pleading.

However, the boss just chuckled.

"Look at your delicate skin, your family must be well-off."

"Want to avoid a beating? It's simple. Cooperate well tonight, otherwise, I'll beat you every 30 minutes."

Sun Qiang trembled all over, not yet understanding what the other meant by cooperation.

The boss's hand had already reached his thigh.

Sun Qiang's eyes widened suddenly, instantly realizing what the other was about to do.

"Help—"

Before he could finish calling for help, two minions had already rushed over from the side, pinning him firmly to the bed and stuffing a stinky sock into his mouth.

"Hold him down... hold him down for me."

"Damn it. Daring to resist. Tonight I'll make him bleed..."

...

Deputy Mayor Sun Gang was so angry all night that his lungs were about to burst.

He never expected that even after clearly stating his identity, he still couldn't get his son out.

Especially when his secretary told him that his son had been arrested for drug involvement and carrying homemade firearms, Sun Gang was completely stunned.

He knew his son too well.

If you said he was usually unruly, he'd believe it.

But to say this kid had the guts to do such things, he absolutely didn't believe it.

His first thought was that someone was framing his son.

Why frame his son?

Could it be to target himself?

Who would target him?

Sun Gang immediately thought of Tong Haoran.

Because just two days ago, he had "attacked" him during a meeting.

But thinking carefully, given Tong Haoran's character, he shouldn't resort to such despicable means.

After a night of wild speculation.

Sun Gang became a bit restless.

Now, regardless of whether it was targeting him or not.

He had to get his son out first.

If he didn't get him out soon, once the news spread, his prestige in the city government would be ruined.

So early in the morning at work, Sun Gang didn't even use his secretary, but called the TV station himself.

First, he demanded that they not report on last night's incident.

The TV station leaders agreed very readily, and guaranteed that they would absolutely not leak the news.

Sun Gang felt slightly relieved and then called the Development Zone Police Station.

When he learned that it was Deputy Chief Pang Longhai who had been causing trouble last night, Sun Gang was even more furious.

But anger aside, the call still had to be made.

When the call reached Pang Longhai, Sun Gang had prepared a lot of arguments.

However, unexpectedly, Pang Longhai on the other end was very easy to talk to.

He kept explaining that this was just a misunderstanding, saying if he had known earlier that Sun Qiang was your son, I would have released him last night.

You're full of shit!

Sun Gang cursed inwardly.

But at this point, he couldn't be bothered with Pang Longhai's excuses.

Even if he wanted to cause trouble for him, he had to get his son out first.

"Don't worry, Deputy Mayor Sun. I'll have them release him right away!"

Pang Longhai agreed very readily on the phone.

Sun Gang could only hold his nose and say with a smile:

"My son is mischievous by nature, it's good to give him a lesson by detaining him for a while."

"Thank you very much this time, Deputy Chief Pang, I owe you a favor."

"Haha, you're too kind, Deputy Mayor Sun. Don't worry, I'll have my men release Young Master Sun right away."

After hanging up, Sun Gang angrily grabbed a teacup in front of him and smashed it on the ground.

On the other side, Pang Longhai hung up the phone and remained expressionless in silence for a while.

At this time, a subordinate knocked and entered the room, and Pang Longhai instructed:

"It's about time, release Young Master Sun."

"Yes."

Pang Longhai looked at a money tree on the balcony, playing with a cigarette in his hand.

This action had thoroughly offended Deputy Mayor Sun.

But Pang Longhai still did it.

First, it was to repay Chen Fan's favor.

Second, after weighing the pros and cons, he felt that the benefits outweighed the drawbacks in this matter.

Because by doing this, he had shown his attitude to Chen Fan, and Chen Fan's closest relationship was naturally with Mayor Tong.

Moreover, Chen Fan had connections with the provincial government behind him.

Calculating like this, Sun Gang, a mere Deputy Mayor, seemed not worth considering.

...

In fact, Chen Fan had long forgotten about this matter.

Asking Pang Longhai to arrest Sun Qiang and teach him a lesson was Chen Fan's idea.

But what happened in the cell last night was not arranged by Chen Fan, but a method thought up by Luo Wenjie.

At this moment, Chen Fan was preparing to send Su Ruochu back to Beijing.

Originally, according to Chen Fan's plan, he was going to send Su Ruochu directly to school for registration.

But because there was an additional Gao Xiaoxi still recovering from injuries at home, plus the shantytown area had recently entered the formal construction stage, Chen Fan had a lot to do every day and really couldn't get away.

In the end, he could only drive Su Ruochu to the airport. At the airport, the two embraced, and Chen Fan promised that when he was free from this busy period, he would definitely go to Beijing to spend a few days with Su Ruochu.

Su Ruochu nodded with a smile.

"It's a promise then."

"Alright. You should hurry home now. I'm a bit worried about Xiaoxi being alone at home."

"I'm going then."

Chen Fan held her hand, somewhat reluctant to let go.

Seeing this, Su Ruochu teased with a smile: "What are you doing? You're a big boss now, aren't you afraid others will laugh at you?"

"Let them laugh if they want, they can only envy me being intimate with my own wife. If they're not happy, they can go home and kiss their own wives."

Su Ruochu couldn't do anything with Chen Fan, and finally had to lean over and lightly kiss Chen Fan on the cheek.

"There, are you satisfied now?"

Chen Fan nodded with a smile.

"Very satisfied."

"Then I'm going now."

"Mm."

Watching Su Ruochu disappear with her suitcase, Chen Fan finally turned and left the departure hall.

Getting in the car and fastening his seatbelt, Chen Fan took out his phone and looked at it, then called Guo Wendong.

"How's the relocation in the shantytown area going?"

"After the new policy came out, most people have signed contracts."

"However, in Zhao Village, which is the toughest nut to crack, there are still a few households stubbornly refusing to sign contracts."

"How many households exactly?"

"A total of 5 households. All surnamed Zhao. They seem to be relatives."

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes and considered for a moment.

"Time is precious. Don't wait for them anymore. Arrange for the construction team to enter the site tomorrow and start work."

"Yes!"
