Chapter 1065 - 1063: Biting Back
"Why do you hate Secretary Tang?" Xiao Xue asked Xiao Qiao curiously.
Xiao Qiao's pretty face showed an angry expression as she said, "I hate her because she stole the man I love."
As soon as she said this, the three were stunned, and Xiao Xue said, "Secretary Qiao, you must be mistaken. How could Secretary Tang compete with you for a man unless the man you're talking about is Lin Chuan."
Xiao Qiao said, "That's right, the man I love is Lin Chuan."
Song Xiaojia, disregarding the relatively quiet environment, stood up and shrieked, "You're talking nonsense! When has Lin Chuan had feelings for you?"
Song Xiaojia's scream drew the attention of everyone around. Zhang Wenhui hastily tugged at her sleeve and said, "Girl, sit down. What are you yelling for?"
Song Xiaojia sat down angrily, glaring at Xiao Qiao.
Xiao Xue also didn't believe Lin Chuan could be in a relationship with Xiao Qiao, but she was stopped by Luo Guoqing's gaze when she wanted to say something.
Luo Guoqing had clarity in his heart; he knew Lin Chuan's relationship with Yang Zi, even if others didn't. Knowing that Xiao Qiao didn't want to drag Yang Zi into it, he said, "Secretary Qiao, you should think clearly about the consequences. Accusing a City Committee leader falsely is a very serious crime."
Xiao Qiao said, "Since I've done it, I'm not afraid of any consequences. Let's go, take me to the police station."
Zhang Wenhui said, "Secretary Qiao, if you've decided to admit it yourself, then we have no other way but to handle it according to the legal procedures."
Xiao Qiao showed no fear on her face and said, "I have a condition. If you agree to it, I can immediately clarify the facts for Tang Yumeng and restore her to innocence."
"What condition?" Luo Guoqing asked.
Xiao Qiao said, "The matter of the anonymous letter was my doing. If you track it to me, stop right here. If you don't agree, then I won't clear Tang Yumeng's name so easily."
Luo Guoqing was about to speak when Zhang Wenhui said, "Alright, I agree to your condition."
At the Jiangbei City Committee guesthouse, Hu Xuefeng, the head of the investigation team, and two other team members were discussing the issue of the anonymous letter when they suddenly heard a knock on the door.
One of the team members got up to open the door, and Luo Guoqing and Xiao Xue brought in Secretary Xiao Qiao.
Hu Xuefeng had seen Xiao Xue before and knew she was the secretary to Tang Yumeng. Looking at her, he asked, "What brings you here?"
Xiao Xue said, "Minister Hu, regarding that anonymous letter falsely accusing Secretary Tang, we found the person who wrote it, so we brought them to you."
Hu Xuefeng uttered an "oh," his gaze shifting between Xiao Qiao and Luo Guoqing, and he said, "You mean one of them?"
Xiao Xue pointed to Xiao Qiao and said, "It's her. Ask her any questions you have. We'll take our leave now." Finished speaking, she and Luo Guoqing turned and left the room.
The matter was quickly confirmed; the anonymous letter was a deliberate attempt to frame Tang Yumeng. After receiving Hu Xuefeng's investigation report, the Provincial Committee immediately informed Tang Yumeng, restored her reputation, and allowed her to continue presiding over the daily work of the Jiangbei City Committee.
Tang Yumeng received a call from Secretary Liu of the provincial discipline committee. Knowing she was framed, she felt a huge burden was lifted. Learning from Secretary Liu that the quick resolution was thanks to Xiao Xue, she called Xiao Xue to the office to first express her gratitude and then asked about the course of events.
Xiao Xue recounted the events to Tang Yumeng without any exaggeration. Tang Yumeng, knowing so many people helped her, was filled with gratitude and asked Xiao Xue to inform Luo Guoqing, Song Xiaojia, and Zhang Wenhui that she was inviting them to dinner that night.
The news of Xiao Qiao being taken away by the police quickly reached Yang Zi. She understood that Xiao Qiao didn't want the blame to reach her, so she took all the guilt upon herself.
At that moment, she was extremely angry, attributing everything to Tang Yumeng. The office was a mess, and to vent her anger, she took it out on some items in the office.
After venting for a while, Yang Zi calmed down a bit, but her hatred for Tang Yumeng didn't diminish even a little. She bit her lip and muttered to herself, "Tang Yumeng, this isn't over."
...
Fukuoka, Japan.
Lu Dapao was strolling with his Japanese girlfriend, Miyako.
To be honest, although Miyako wasn't considered a beauty, she exuded a very feminine charm, with no shortage in the right places and no extra fat where it should be lean.
What made Lu Dapao feel most at ease was Miyako's exciting performance in bed. Besides having a gentle side, she had an indescribable wildness.
The encounter between Lu Dapao and Miyako was in a bar.
That day, Zhou Kai and the others were not around. He went to the bar alone to drink, and Miyako came over to keep him company. They drank until they were both fuzzy-headed, and then ended up in bed at a hotel.
After the first time, Lu Dapao became infatuated with Miyako. After a few intimate encounters, Miyako became Lu Dapao's girlfriend.
Regarding Miyako, Lu Dapao only knew that she was from Kyoto, Japan. He knew nothing else about her.
Zhou Kai had seen Miyako once. He always felt this woman didn't look like a proper woman, and advised Lu Dapao several times to stay away from her.
But Lu Dapao was not willing to listen. As long as he was in Fukuoka, he felt uneasy if he didn't see Miyako for a day.
Miyako walked ahead, and Lu Dapao followed behind carrying several paper bags. Just as they exited a mall, several people suddenly rushed out, wielding baseball bats, and began attacking Lu Dapao without saying a word.
Caught off guard, Lu Dapao was knocked down by a guy with a baseball bat, and then these people surrounded him and started punching and kicking him.
Lu Dapao was beaten half to death. At this moment, a man in his forties walked over. Miyako saw this man and looked terrified.
"You bitch, I've had such a hard time finding you. Didn't expect you'd come here to seduce men," the man cursed, raising his right hand and slapping Miyako across the face.
Miyako was knocked to the ground, ignoring the pain, she clung to the man's leg and said, "Jiro, it was this Chinese man who forced me to be with him. I was coerced, please forgive me."
Though Lu Dapao was beaten half to death, his mind was still clear. Hearing Miyako say this, he felt a stabbing pain in his heart, and couldn't help but curse loudly, "You shameless woman, when did I ever force you to be with me?"
The man named Jiro walked up to Lu Dapao, stepped on his face, and cursed, "You dead Chinese bastard, how dare you touch my woman. Let me tell you, I'm Aoki Jiro from the Yamaguchi gang."
The Yamaguchi gang is one of Japan's famous gangs, mainly active around Tokyo and Nagoya.
Lu Dapao didn't show weakness, even though he was being stepped on by Aoki Jiro, he still said defiantly, "I'm Lu Dapao from the Jvyi Gang. If you dare, kill me; otherwise, you'll regret it."
"Have you ever heard of Jvyi Gang?" Aoki Jiro asked his subordinates.
Several of his subordinates shook their heads, indicating they hadn't heard of it.
Aoki Jiro laughed contemptuously at Lu Dapao and said, "A little-known gang dares to act tough with me. Kid, let me tell you, you slept with my woman, you must compensate for my loss. I'm not unreasonable, just compensate me thirty million."
Thirty million yen, equivalent to CNY 1.8 million, Lu Dapao cursed, "Damn Japanese, I won't give you money. If you have the guts, kill me."
Lu Dapao was assaulted as people watched from a distance. Among them, a Chinese worker at the dock recognized Lu Dapao, knowing he was from the Jvyi Gang, hurriedly ran back to the dock and found Zhou Kai, telling him about Lu Dapao's beating.
Hearing Lu Dapao was beaten, Zhou Kai immediately gathered dozens of people and rushed towards the mall.
At this time, Aoki Jiro's group still hadn't left, probably intending to force Lu Dapao to pay up. Seeing Lu Dapao being stepped on by Aoki Jiro, Zhou Kai shouted and rushed towards Aoki Jiro's group with dozens of people.
Aoki Jiro's side had only seven or eight people, unable to withstand an attack from dozens of people, and were quickly beaten down by the Jvyi Gang.
Zhou Kai helped Lu Dapao up, seeing he was covered in wounds, he urgently asked, "Da Pao, let's quickly get to the hospital."
Lu Dapao, gritting his teeth, glared angrily at Miyako hiding nearby and said, "Kai, this Japanese woman's heart is really poisonous, damn it..."
Before he finished speaking, he felt a severe pain in his chest, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fainted.
Zhou Kai disregarded Aoki Jiro's group, telling his brothers from the Jvyi Gang, "Take these bastards and this woman back, I'm taking Da Pao to the hospital."
At the hospital, Zhou Kai and the others awaited anxiously outside the operating room.
After about an hour, a nurse came out of the operating room, and Zhou Kai hurriedly went up to ask, "Nurse, how is the patient inside?"
The nurse glanced at Zhou Kai and the others and said, "The patient suffered three broken ribs, causing massive internal bleeding. The operation was somewhat successful, but the patient hasn't passed the danger zone yet, you need to be prepared."
Zhou Kai was stunned. If anything should happen to Lu Dapao, how would he explain to Lin Chuan?
A doctor came out of the operating room, and Zhou Kai grabbed the doctor's hand forcefully, with a fierce expression, saying, "Doctor, you must save my brother."
The doctor was startled by Zhou Kai's expression, and said nervously, "The patient is still in a coma. If he wakes up tomorrow, his life will basically be out of danger."
