Chapter 236: Here I have the final say

Only saw Zhou Wanting carrying two suitcases, her face equally grim.

She whispered, "Find me a job."

What?!

Speak louder!

What, you didn't have breakfast?

Li Jiaci didn't hear clearly.

Upon hearing that, Zhou Wanting tilted her head and muttered a few curses.

Only then did she clear her throat and loudly say, "I said, find me a job!"

Li Jiaci heard it clearly this time.

But he couldn't understand.

"Say something I can understand!"

Zhou Wanting gave him a fierce glare, then threw her luggage to the ground, angrily bumped his shoulder aside, and strode straight into the office ahead.

Bang.

She also closed the door.

Hey?!

"Who let you in?"

Li Jiaci turned his head to look at the tightly shut door.

He was even more baffled.

He hurriedly pushed the door open and followed inside.

He saw Zhou Wanting sitting on the sofa with arms crossed, constantly shaking her leg.

That expression was as if Li Jiaci owed her 1.8 million.

Li Jiaci only felt utterly bewildered.

He stepped forward and said, "Explain yourself—what do you mean by having me find you a job? Aren't you giving up your iron rice bowl?"

Zhou Wanting snorted coldly, replying angrily, "Don't ask me—this is Bureau Chief Wu's decision!"

The Anti-Corruption Bureau chief?

Li Jiaci dragged a chair over and sat down.

"No, what the hell are you guys up to?"

"Lin Niansheng suddenly died, and at this time you're not busy investigating his cause of death, why are you giving a businessman like me a hard time?"

"Besides, I don't have any work for you to do here!"

Zhou Wanting irritably dug at her ear.

Just mentioning Lin Niansheng made her head throb, her inner fire rising uncontrollably, impossible to suppress.

"Don't mention that person to me!"

"Damn it, the Police Bureau has already ruled his death a suicide!"

"What the hell, still investigating?"

Suicide?

Li Jiaci was dazed.

Going by Liu Yanxi's temperament, this is absolutely impossible.

Unless, the higher-ups were involved.

Using absolute authority, they forced them to close the case.

Thinking that way.

Li Jiaci suddenly understood.

With Lin Niansheng's death, all leads were completely cut off.

And the Police Bureau, pressured from above, could make no progress.

Thus, the Anti-Corruption Bureau planned to reuse its old trick, getting Li Jiaci involved.

Li Jiaci gave a light laugh.

He then had Zhou Wanting dial Wu Jiangshan's number.

He took the phone and put it to his ear.

"Bureau Chief Wu, what do you want me to do this time?"

"To cast a brick to attract jade."

Wu Jiangshan's simple four characters.

It confirmed Li Jiaci's suspicion.

"Heh."

"What a fine case of casting a brick to attract jade!"

"I have to say, Bureau Chief Wu, you really have a good abacus, good schemes!"

"I willingly admit defeat!"

Li Jiaci said this through gritted teeth.

Without waiting for Wu Jiangshan's reply, he hung up directly.

Zhou Wanting couldn't help but ask him, "What attitude is this?"

"What attitude do you want me to have?"

"Damn it, Lin Niansheng is the one I helped you catch!"

I found all the evidence!

Your ineptitude led to someone secretly killing Lin Niansheng!

I haven't settled this with you yet!

Now you damn well want to make me a live target, handing a knife to the killer behind the scenes!

You still want me to greet you with a smile?

I damn well am not a sucker!

What gives you the right to push me around?

Li Jiaci's mouth is like a machine gun.

Every word he spoke left Zhou Wanting speechless.

The atmosphere reached an impasse.

At that moment, Zhou Wanting's phone suddenly rang.

The caller was Wu Jiangshan.

She answered the call, but the other party told him to hand the phone over to Li Jiaci.

Perhaps he had anticipated this situation.

Zhou Wanting handed over the phone and said, "Bureau Chief Wu is looking for you."

Li Jiaci's face darkened, he exhaled a turbid breath, then took her phone, stood up, and went outside.

The cold wind was bleak.

On the phone, Wu Jiangshan whispered, "I believe our goals are the same!"

Li Jiaci did not respond.

He naturally knew that the person the Anti-Corruption Bureau wanted to catch was the same person he wanted to catch.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have helped them find evidence against Lin Niansheng earlier.

Wu Jiangshan let out a heavy sigh.

Sigh...

Li Jiaci, besides us, no one else can help you!

Only by joining forces strongly can we achieve a great victory!

Think it over carefully!

Listening to these words.

Li Jiaci tightly closed his eyes, clenched his left hand into a fist, making a creaking sound.

This is the last time.

……

Approaching noon.

Li Yihu brought Wang Yingna back to the lumber mill.

The two parked their motorcycle at the office entrance and walked in, chatting and laughing.

Brother-in-law, next time I'll take you to the harbor for a spin; the motorcycle can glide right on the ice—what a great feeling!

Wang Yingna laughed and nodded: "Okay, that's settled then!"

Just as she turned her gaze to Li Jiaci...

The smile on her face suddenly froze.

Because Li Jiaci had seated beside him a woman dressed extremely revealingly and with a bewitching appearance.

Li Yihu recognized her first.

Yo, isn't that Deputy Section Chief Zhou from the Anti-Corruption Bureau?

What wind blew you in here?

Zhou Wanting frowned, her expression displeased, and said, "You think I wanted to come to this dump?"

Hearing that, Li Yihu let out a scoff.

I was just being polite for a moment, and you got all full of yourself!

A big living person placed in your hands, and you damn well say he's dead just like that!

What are you doing here again?

You still want my older brother to work for you?

Zhou Wanting opened her mouth.

She looked as if she wanted to speak but held back.

Wang Yingna came over and sat beside Li Jiaci.

Seeing his uneasy expression, she put her arms around him and cooed, "Jiaci bro, I'm hungry, my stomach's growling—did you hear that?"

Zhou Wanting gave her a complicated look.

She could never fake that kind of sound.

Li Jiaci, however, found it very pleasing.

Taking Wang Yingna's hand, he stood up and said, "Spring Happiness Restaurant has a few new signature dishes; let me take you to try them!"

Don't just go by ourselves; bring the brothers along too!

Wang Yingna quickly waved at Li Yihu and instructed, "Huzi, call the others to meet at Spring Happiness Restaurant at twelve!"

Got it, sister-in-law!

Li Yihu nodded, took out his phone, and started calling people.

At that moment, Zhou Wanting hesitated several times, then rose and followed.

Wu Jiangshan had her keep a close watch on Li Jiaci's movements.

She had to comply.

However, just as several people were about to get in the car, Wang Yingna suddenly turned her head and said to her, "Your surname is Zhou, right? Miss Zhou, my family is going out to eat; I suppose you're also quite busy, so we won't keep you!"

"No, you want to drive me away?"

Zhou Wanting was torn between laughter and tears.

She put her hands on her hips and asked Li Jiaci, "What about you, what do you mean?"

Li Jiaci was about to reply.

But Wang Yingna directly shoved him into the car.

Then she closed the car door, crossed her arms, and turned around.

She gave Zhou Wanting a faint smile.

"Here, I have the final say."

"Asking others is useless."
