Chapter 2025: Previously on His Side
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Therefore, Lan Weisong thought that the Nangong family still had the upper hand on the Shi family and had beaten them in this battle. That was why the Shi family had specially summoned everyone back to meet in person.
He had only briefly reminded himself not to get into a conflict with the Nangong family. He spent the rest of his time and energy on colluding with the Shi family and their powerful and influential side branches. He did not take their warning to heart at all.
Therefore, when he came up against Nangong Nuannuan, he deliberately ignored the fact that she was a member of the Nangong family. He thought that she would never put her family in danger over the mere Wu family. He thought his status was powerful enough. Once the Shi family found out that Nangong Nuannuan had interfered with his plans, they would definitely help him, and if the Shi family got involved, the Nangong family would naturally weigh the pros and cons of getting involved themselves.
He thought that he had an airtight plan. He did not bother with treating Nangong Nuannuan well. He thought she would be satisfied with the bare minimum. Who could have guessed that the Shi family was not afraid of the Nangong family, but Nangong Nuannuan? After all, the Shi family and the Nangong family were still a little lacking when compared to each other. However, if they were considered as evenly matched, if the Nangong family had, Nangong Nuannuan, the chairman of Tianheng Holdings and the Imperial Phoenix Group, the Nangong family had a tiger with wings on their side. With her involvement, the Shi family could not afford to provoke the Nangong family.
Lan Weisong was foolish and did not take the Shi family’s words to heart. He was foolish enough to go up against Nangong Nuannuan. He thought that Nangong Nuannuan would not allow the Nangong family and the Shi familyto fight each other for the sake of the mere Wu family. Who could have guessed that she was not afraid of the Shi family at all:? She was from a super wealthy family and also a super hacker!
No wonder Chi Yang was so arrogant!
Thinking about how he was competing with the sun and the moon as a grain of rice at the moment, he wanted to jump off the building and end it all.
However, he knew that he could not do that. He still wanted to save his life to do one last thing for the Shi family: allow Shi Maowen to make a comeback, so the public would not be angry with the Shi family over this.
The knocking on the door had been going on for a long time. Lan Weisong took out the card that he had spoken to Shi Maowen on the phone about, broke it, and threw it into the office’s bathroom. He flushed it down before opening the door.
The heads of Sea District’s various departments surrounded the entrance of the office. Those who were on good terms with Wu Jingzhong and Xu Binren especially looked at Lan Weisong like he was their enemy.
Wu Jingzhong’s friends were mostly idiots who followed routines and would never take a single cent more no matter how high their positions were. They were headstrong and did not know how to be flexible. Witnessing this obvious injustice now, they were naturally filled with anger.
There were another group of people there too. They were Xu Binren’s friends. Xu Binren was actually the one who started this, while Lan Weisong had only been .playing along. These people who were close to Xu Binren had gotten a lot of things from him. But now that Wu Jingzhong was about to be released and Xu Binren was not, they hated Lan Weisong for ruining everything. They wished they could tear him to shreds.
“Comrade Lan Weisong, now we suspect that you’re related to the sub-contracting case in Wangcheng Area and the murder of Wu Zongxu. Please follow us to the Ministry of Justice.”
......
The people who were now showing him their documents were a few people from the Ministry of Justice that he was familiar with. These people were distantly related to the Shi family. Previously, they had been on his side, preparing to close the case. Who could have guessed that the tables would turn so drastically after that conference?
