Chapter 308 - 309: Admitted Defeat
At that moment, Tian Huayuan felt a chill run down his spine. He was just a minor deputy head, while the other party was the deputy chief of the bureau, and from Bureau Chief Sun’s attitude, it was clear he was protecting Song Xiaodong. There was no way he could challenge Bureau Chief Sun.
Chu Kewei and the other three, though they hadn’t heard clearly what was said on the phone, already sensed that something was amiss, each of them showing an ugly expression.
After wiping the sweat from his forehead, Tian Huayuan looked at Song Xiaodong and stammered, "This... this... Mr. Song, it seems there has been some misunderstanding, definitely some misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding?" Song Xiaodong squinted his eyes looking at Tian Huayuan.
"Absolutely, can we just let this matter go?"
"Okay," Song Xiaodong grinned, then glanced over at Chu Kewei and the others before pulling the door open and walking out.
Chu Kewei and Tian Hao’s father both had an ominous feeling. Tian Hao’s father quickly whispered, "Does Bureau Chief Sun have some connection with this young man?"
Tian Huayuan said, "He must, Bureau Chief Sun wouldn’t stand up for someone lightly, and given his direct words, obviously this young man... has significant backing."
"What should we do?" Everyone looked at each other, now all somewhat at a loss. However, after a moment’s hesitation, they hurriedly followed out, feeling that letting Song Xiaodong go now would certainly lead to trouble.
"Uncle Zhao, sorry to bother you to come here," Shen Yue was speaking to a middle-aged man in the corridor, and the man was none other than Zhao Yongbo, the Director of the Municipal Party Committee Office.
