Wu Jingzhong did not want to listen to all these empty words. He straightforwardly asked, “When Xu Yunyun was right in front of you, you didn’t arrest her. Now that I’m out, you want to dig a hole three feet deeper for yourself. Chief Wu, what have you been doing?”

Hearing Wu Jingzhong’s voice go so cold that it could freeze water over, Wu Yi’s legs turned to jelly. He pretended to ask carefully, “A-are You Governor Wu?”

“So Chief Wu doesn’t even know my office’s phone number. I thought that all the department heads in the city knew my office number.”

Wu Yi looked regretful as he scratched his head dejectedly. He knew that if he continued to pretend, he would only be slapped in the face later on. “Governor Wu, this is my fault. Back then, when you were taken away for investigation, the Wu family accused the Xu family of hiring assassins to kidnap Miss Wu. I thought… I thought it was just a civil war between two big families, so I didn’t dare to get involved.”

“Oh, so before this, when I was arrested and Xu Binren was not, you were on his side and let Xu Yunyun go. Now that Xu Binren has been arrested and I’ve been released, you’re trying to get into my good books now and dig yourself three feet into the ground promising me that you’ll find Xu Yunyun. Is that the case?

“Governor, o-of course not.”

“Really? Then tell me why when my family had solid evidence and we called the police, you guys didn’t believe us and let Xu Yunyun go free. That was all an accident?”

“I-I… Governor, I didn’t arrest Xu Yunyun at the time because of her identity, I wanted to wait until there was more evidence before arresting her. I didn’t let her go on account of Governor Xu.”

“Enough. There’s no need to say any more. This is some serious inaction.”

Upon hearing the word ‘inaction’, Wu Yi was so scared that he peed his pants. He still wanted to explain, but Wu Jingzhong said, “Director Wu, I need to solve this matter immediately. You’ve already let Xu Yunyun run free for far too long. I demand that you arrest her immediately!”

Wu Yi wanted to cry, he trembled and said, “Governor, I- I want to arrest her too! But you also know that the Xu family has people in the underworld. They’ve covered Xu Yunyun’s tracks. By the time our people started chasing her, she had already boarded a plane to Luntan. Governor Wu, why don’t… you apply for extradition. Why don’t we…”

Wu Yi wanted to say something else, but Wu Jingzhong had already hung up.

Wu Yi stared blankly at the phone call that had just ended. He knew that he was definitely done for.

Governor Wu had never used his identity to get at people. but he had always abhorred evil. Furthermore, the person who had been wronged was his niece,and he was not the kind of fool who would let others go just to prove his benevolence.

Quite on the contrary, Governor Wu was going to use this *sshole as an example of why no one should ever wrong his family.

In less than an hour, Wu Yi received a call from a comrade from the Ministry of Justice.

He was so regretful that his intestines had turned green.

If he had known this would happen, he would have already brought people to storm the Xu family. He would have detained Xu Yunyun directly.

At most, he could have detained her and not tried her yet. He could have delayed this case.

Why had he let Xu Yunyun go just to make the Xu family happy?
