Chapter 441: Anxious to Disassociate from Minister Xu
"Deputy Director Zhang, it seems like you’re here to find someone. Do you want my help?" Huo Chen asked.
Deputy Director Zhang shook his head and walked directly into the house. When he saw there were no places to hide, he felt a panic in his heart.
Huo Chen noticed his concern and spoke provocatively, "Deputy Director Zhang, are you looking for the person who helped you come up with strategies to steal someone else’s job?"
"Come on, Huo Chen, what nonsense are you spouting? I’m just here to catch up with an old friend," Deputy Director Zhang said, trying to keep his composure, but the sweat on his forehead betrayed his guilt.
Huo Chen actually knew about that matter. Who else knew about it, and where had that couple gone? Could they have already been turned by Director Gu?
Deputy Director Zhang was sweating profusely.
Huo Chen continued, "Deputy Director Zhang, let’s cooperate. I’ll take care of that couple for you, and you release my father-in-law.
We could also work together concerning the food factory. My wife is already married to me, and our child is about to be born. Family must come first, and from now on, a man like me has to fight hard for it.
So I could also help you with the food factory business. It’s all up to Deputy Director Zhang now."
"So they are with you after all! Well, Huo Chen, I must admit I underestimated you. Zhang Jiujiang was right: you’re as crafty as the Zhou family," Deputy Director Zhang said with a smile on his face, but inside, he was still on guard.
