Chapter 257: Who is interrogating whom?

Zhou Wanting has lived at the lumber mill for this many days.

Although they couldn't see where Li Jiaci was dissolute, they could see that ruthless streak in him.

If anyone accidentally crosses his bottom line,

the consequence is a dead end.

Zhou Wanting deeply understands this.

She hesitated a moment, then nodded in compromise.

"Got it, I'll go find him right now!"

Shiqiang Mu Cai Chang.

A minivan slowly drove in.

Hong Bo laughed and said, "My wife has arrived!"

All I saw was Hong Sao parking the car in front of the dormitory.

Everyone immediately gathered around.

"Hong Sao, why are you alone?"

"Where's our little nephew?"

Hong Sao got out of the car.

Smiling, she took off her gloves and explained, "The kid is at my parents' house, happily playing with peers his age, so I didn't bring him along!"

After saying that, she opened the trunk and had a few people move the goods.

The entire trunk was stuffed full of her hometown's specialty products.

Plus a whole large lamb leg.

At the very bottom were all crocks of medicinal liquor.

Even before opening the lids, the aroma began to waft out.

Hong Bo let out an amazed "yo."

"You brought all this old stuff?"

"My father-in-law went to a lot of trouble, haha!"

Hearing that, Hong Sao said on the side, "My dad knows you've got a good boss, so he specially had me send these things over—consider it our family's goodwill!"

"Good, good, good!"

Hong Bo nodded repeatedly.

This really lets him save face.

Li Jiaci came out of the office just in time to see this scene.

He hurriedly poured Hong Sao a cup of hot tea.

"You've worked hard, sister-in-law!"

Hong Sao took the teacup and waved her hand.

She took a sip of tea and asked, "How much longer before you start work?"

"Soon, soon!"

"It should be just a matter of these few days!"

Li Jiaci replied.

After everyone had unloaded the specialty products from the vehicle,

Hong Bo gave Li Jiaci a thoughtful look.

"Well..."

"Boss!"

"What about Moji? Hurry up and send the sister-in-law back!"

Li Jiaci waved at him.

Then I saw Hong Bo smile gratefully and say, "Okay, I'll send her back, grab a meal, and return right away!"

"You're not going to stay there for a few days, are you?"

"Perfect, please thank your father-in-law for his gift on my behalf!"

"Whenever I need you, I'll give you a call!"

Li Jiaci said very candidly.

With that said,

Hong Bo and his wife exchanged a glance, and they both felt relieved.

The two drove off in the car.

Zhao Chen came out of the warehouse, hands in his pockets, and said, "Brother, this warehouse is completely overflowing—we need to think of a solution fast!"

Li Jiaci entered the warehouse to take a look.

The specialty goods Xiao Cui had sent earlier already occupied two-thirds of the warehouse.

Adding the hometown specialties Hong Sao just sent, the warehouse door can barely close now.

Li Jiaci immediately beckoned to Zhang Chuqiang.

"Qiangzi, go get money from Xiaoalan and buy a few refrigerators!"

"While you're at it, wholesale some popsicles and drinks!"

Zhang Chuqiang gave an OK sign.

Soon after, he drove off in the cargo van.

At this moment.

Wang Yingna walked out of the dormitory with sleepy eyes.

She was like a lazy cat.

Her whole body was hanging on Li Jiaci.

"Are you cold?"

Li Jiaci touched her face.

It was somewhat warm.

Wang Yingna whispered: "Brother Jiaci, you smell like sunshine, it feels so nice to smell!"

"Haha, that's because I've been standing under the sun!"

Li Jiaci was warm all over from being basked in the sun.

The two of them lingered for a while.

Zhao Chen was tidying the pots and pans nearby, saying: "Brother, we'll have roasted lamb leg for dinner tonight; I'll call Brother Wang Zhen later to join the fun!"

"Okay!"

Li Jiaci had no objection.

By afternoon.

Zhang Chuqiang dragged back five large freezers, and two boxes of ice pops and four boxes of drinks.

Everyone was busy tidying the warehouse, completely unaware that a car had quietly stopped at the office door at that moment.

Zhou Wanting got out of the car.

Familiar with the way, she walked into the office, picked up the cigarette box on the desk, and took out a cigarette to hold in her mouth.

Then she rummaged through the drawer for tea leaves and brewed a pot of tea.

She smoked while shaking her leg.

It was as if she had returned home.

Li Jiaci broke off an ice pop, slung his jacket over his shoulder, and walked into the office with his head down.

"It's this hot just after spring began; what are we going to do when summer arrives?"

Wang Yingna followed behind, smiling: "When summer comes, we'll just install air conditioning; I won't suffer that!"

"Heh, really pretentious!"

Suddenly a sound came, startling both of them.

Li Jiaci looked at the woman who had suddenly appeared, frowning deeply.

"When did you arrive?"

Wang Yingna also asked: "You came, why didn't you say anything?"

Zhou Wanting found it funny, glanced at her car just parked at the door, and said: "Who let you two have such poor eyesight, such a big thing parked at the door and you didn't notice it!"

Upon hearing that, Li Jiaci turned his head to look at the car outside.

During this period, Zhou Wanting's car had always been parked at the office door.

He had long been accustomed to it.

Even if he had just noticed it, he didn't react.

Wang Yingna pursed her lips, not very happy about Zhou Wanting's arrival.

Because this woman never comes to the Three Treasures Hall without a purpose.

Every time she comes, she brings an agenda.

So Wang Yingna asked indirectly: "Has that guy confessed?"

Zhou Wanting shook her head.

"Not yet."

"He's even tougher than Lin Niansheng; he won't yield to either soft or hard tactics, damn it!"

Wang Yingna understood in her heart.

Her face darkened involuntarily.

She looked at Li Jiaci, who was gnawing on an ice pop.

"Sigh."

Good fortune never comes his way.

Whenever trouble arises, it all comes knocking at his door.

Zhou Wanting stubbed out her cigarette and poured a cup of hot tea.

By the time she finished her cup of tea, Li Jiaci had almost finished his ice pop.

The two of them stood up at the same time.

Zhou Wanting then grabbed his arm.

Without warning, she pushed him toward the car.

"What are you doing?"

Li Jiaci looked bewildered.

Zhou Wanting said: "Bureau Chief Wu ordered you to interrogate Xu Bin; I'm here to take you!"

"Who is interrogating whom?"

Li Jiaci asked in surprise.

"Are the people in the Anti-Corruption Bureau all gone crazy, damn it!"

"To have an outsider like him interrogate Liu Yunshen's secretary?"

Wang Yingna ran after them.

She stepped in front of Li Jiaci, glaring fiercely at Zhou Wanting as she shouted, "You've had enough—just to help your Anti-Corruption Bureau, our factory has been shut down until now and still hasn't resumed, and now you want to let my Jiaci brother be a pawn? People need face, trees need bark; you settle your own problems that you can't handle, don't mess with us!"

「What do you know? 」

Zhou Wanting stepped forward and said, "Xu Bin is our last chance!"

Upon hearing that, Wang Yingna let out a scornful laugh.

Mockingly she asked, "Is that all the ability you Anti-Corruption Bureau have? Not being able to handle Lin Niansheng is forgivable, but now you can't even hold onto a little secretary; if it gets out, people will laugh their heads off!"

「You can't say that... 」

Zhou Wanting was about to explain a few words.

But Wang Yingna suddenly covered her ears and rolled her eyes.

「I won't listen, I won't listen! 」
