Free Web NovelChapter 439: Chapter 439 Director Liu Intervenes
Director Liu was the influential figure that Mr. Gao had previously mentioned; naturally, at his age, he was falling behind in certain aspects. Despite his high status outside, he could never raise his head in front of his wife at home.
Once at a gathering with a friend, someone gave him a few Pure Yang Pills, which had great effects after use, making the relationship with his wife feel like they were back in their passionate early days. This sudden turnaround made Director Liu exude pride and confidence.
However, his friend had no stock left, so he had to come over and use his old face to cut in line at Mr. Gao’s to buy a few more.
Unexpectedly, on his first visit, he encountered Cheng Yin causing trouble for Wang Hao. freewebnσvel.cøm
After listening to Mr. Gao’s explanation, Director Liu followed him down very forcefully. His achievements today were all thanks to the support from his father-in-law.
Moreover, the relationship with his wife had slowly recovered to its previous warmth, and now anyone who tried to disrupt their relationship would be making a mortal enemy of Director Liu.
"Who reported a false case?"
Director Liu immediately followed with an angry shout.
"It was this man!"
Zhou Yingying quickly seized the opportunity and dragged the man sent by Cheng Yin to Director Liu.
"Did you report the aphrodisiac pills sold here as drugs? Do you have any evidence?"
Director Liu glared fiercely, and his usual stern and upright demeanor scared the man into the weakness of his knees.
"I..."
"What ’I’? If you have evidence, show it now. Are you making a false report, or are you implying that I, the police chief, knowingly break the law? That I’m consuming drugs here as well?"
Director Liu’s expression darkened, and he questioned with anger on his face.
"I... I didn’t..."
The man answered, trembling with fear. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
"Hmph! You know what? If you can’t produce evidence now, I can sue you for defamation!"
Director Liu didn’t give the man a chance to argue and simply gestured to Officer Luo to come over.
"Quickly arrest this man who’s spreading rumors, take him back for a good interrogation, detain him for ten to fifteen days. We must find out who sent him to slander me!"
With Director Liu’s words, Officer Luo was no longer afraid and went forward to handcuff the man.
"Stop, you don’t need to detain me for so long. I’ll confess now; I intentionally framed Wang Hao. Isn’t confession supposed to be met with leniency? I’ve confessed already; you don’t need to interrogate me anymore!"
The man, sensing the bad turn of events, thought about escaping the situation first.
Since his framing of Wang Hao hadn’t caused any major harm and he had already confessed, he believed he would receive a light sentence, especially with Cheng Yin backing him. He trusted he would be released soon.
But he was thinking too simply, as he had offended not just Wang Hao but also Director Liu.
"It’s not your place to tell us what to do. Since you’ve mentioned the procedural process, we’ll follow it thoroughly without skipping a single step. Take him away and lock him up for fifteen days first!"
Director Liu said angrily, as buying these medications was somewhat damaging to his reputation.
But now, to maintain a harmonious relationship with his wife, he couldn’t do without Wang Hao’s Pure Yang Pills.
Director Liu’s intentions were now very clear; he wanted to protect Wang Hao.
But protecting Wang Hao came with conditions. As the chief of police, Director Liu knew about all the major events in Zao City, and he couldn’t find any dirt on Wang Hao.
Especially after the traditional Chinese medicine auction, the Blood Ganoderma had fetched a price close to ninety million, making Wang Hao’s reputation in Zao City very high, which also contributed positively to the city’s development.
Plus, in the following boxing match, Wang Hao had fought for the honor of China, defeating the arrogant Thai boxing champion, Billy.
Any of these achievements were enough to command respect from others, and Director Liu’s fondness for Wang Hao only increased after personally experiencing the effectiveness of the Pure Yang Pill.
"I won’t accept this! Why do you arrest me without an investigation? I’ll report you for corruption and favoritism, I’ll take it up with the province!"
The man, realizing he was in a disadvantageous position, threatened Director Liu with a complaint.
"Fine, if you’re not satisfied, you can file a complaint with my father-in-law after you’re released. Let’s see if you really have the ability to make it heard!"
Director Liu said dismissively.
Upon hearing that the high-ranking leader from the province was none other than Director Liu’s father-in-law, the man completely gave up hope.
"Please, let me go, I really realize my mistakes now, I swear I’ll never bother Wang Hao again!"
Seeing he had no way out, the man could only plead desperately for them to let him go.
"Do you think this is a game of house? We are national police officers, all acting with integrity and according to protocol! Take him away immediately!"
Director Liu was clearly getting impatient and shouted loudly at Officer Luo.
Upon receiving the order, Officer Liu didn’t say another word, went straight up to the man, covered his mouth, and took him away.
Zhou Yingying also followed Officer Luo back, but Wang Hao clearly saw Zhou Yingying turn her head and glare at him fiercely before she left, as if to say, "I’ll let you off this time, but I’ll settle the score with you later."
Wang Hao knew that after this incident, Zhou Yingying would surely get to the bottom of everything and ask all sorts of questions. It seemed that he could only be honest with Zhou Yingying now, but he wasn’t sure if the young girl could accept it all at once.
"Wang Hao!"
Just as Wang Hao was lost in thought, Elder Gao suddenly called out to him, signaling him to hurry over.
After being awakened by the call, Wang Hao then realized that Elder Gao had already gone upstairs with Director Liu, so he quickly followed.
Previously, when Elder Gao mentioned that an important figure had arrived, Wang Hao thought it was some wealthy businessman or a major buyer.
He never expected that it would be Liu Songlin, the Chief of Zao City Public Security Bureau. Had Wang Hao known that such an important figure was here, he wouldn’t have been so worried from the start.
"Director Liu, I really can’t thank you enough for this time!"
Elder Gao directly handed a box of Pure Yang Pills to Liu Songlin.
"It’s just a small matter, let me thank Elder Gao first!"
Liu Songlin was quite hearty and accepted the Pure Yang Pills immediately, but he didn’t plan to take them for nothing. He turned to Wang Hao and said.
"Wang Hao, your pills have such strong effects, you can’t keep selling them secretly like this, otherwise people who don’t understand will target you. I’ll say a word to the Drug Supervision Bureau on behalf of you, so hurry up and get all the relevant documents sorted out!"
Wang Hao was always hesitant because he feared Cheng Yin would steal the formula and process of the Pure Yang Pill.
"Haha, rest assured, I guarantee that all information about your pills will not be disclosed to anyone, and especially not fall into Cheng Yin’s hands," Liu Songlin assured, seeing right through Wang Hao’s worries.
With that, everything was settled, but Wang Hao still couldn’t understand. Director Liu had only met him for the first time, so why was he willing to go out of his way to help him?
"Isn’t this causing you too much trouble?"
Wang Hao deliberately hesitated, wanting to further gauge Director Liu’s attitude.
"Haha, you’re quite thoughtful, boy!"
Director Liu pointed at Wang Hao and said.
"If you have any doubts, just speak up. Beating around the bush isn’t being honest. Let me tell you the truth, I don’t really like Cheng Yin either; he’s narrow-minded and ruthless."
"But he has a military background, so even I don’t dare to offend him lightly."
"But by helping me this time, won’t you have offended him and might that not cause you trouble?" Wang Hao asked, concerned.
However, Director Liu couldn’t help but smile and his lips curled up upon hearing what Wang Hao said.
"No trouble, no trouble at all. I’ve helped you this time; if Cheng Yin really decides to make things difficult for me, you won’t just stand by and watch, will you?"
Wang Hao was still somewhat confused. Cheng Yin had a powerful background with military support, but he, Wang Hao, was just a farmer who came from the countryside.
If Cheng Yin ever called upon his military connections, Wang Hao didn’t know what he could use to fight back with.
