Chapter 1299: Make He Haiyang Lose Experience Points!

The next morning, Du Chengfeng headed to Qiongjin to pay a special visit to Zhou Chengwu.

Zhou Chengwu received Du Chengfeng in his office. Upon seeing Du Chengfeng, his face was full of smiles. "Congratulations to you. I heard you've become a grandfather."

Du Chengfeng laughed. "Thank you, Mayor Zhou."

Zhou Chengwu had his Secretary serve tea to Du Chengfeng.

Du Chengfeng took a sip of tea, his tone turning serious. "Mayor Zhou, I came to see you today mainly to report something. When my granddaughter was born, there were some minor twists and turns in the process."

Zhou Chengwu was somewhat surprised. "What kind of twists and turns?"

Du Chengfeng sighed. "My granddaughter was almost swapped by someone!"

Zhou Chengwu was puzzled. "Swapped?"

Du Chengfeng then told Zhou Chengwu about the Hidden Plot of Shen Mingcheng.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chengwu was quite shocked. "This Shen Mingcheng was already acting recklessly during his previous term; I didn't expect him to become even worse now. I remember the amount involved in his case back then was not small. How did he get out so quickly?"

Du Chengfeng took the materials Tang Ye had collected yesterday and gave them to Zhou Chengwu.

"These are the materials for Shen Mingcheng's sentence reduction. Every piece of evidence can be verified, but these materials all show signs of being fabricated."

A cold look appeared in Zhou Chengwu's eyes. "His brother-in-law is He Haiyang, who was just transferred to Runzhou to serve as Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Was he the one stirring up trouble behind the scenes?"

Du Chengfeng nodded. "Yes. That real estate project in Runzhou is suspected of misappropriating 300 million in special funds. The developer has already voluntarily confessed, and He Haiyang had put in a good word for this project in advance."

A cold expression appeared at the corners of Zhou Chengwu's mouth. "I will report this matter to the Provincial Party Committee. Rest assured, you will definitely get a satisfactory answer."

Du Chengfeng then reported the recent situation in Hanzhou to Zhou Chengwu.

Hanzhou had continued many of the policies from the period when Zhou Chengwu served as Municipal Party Secretary.

Zhou Chengwu knew this was due to Du Chengfeng's efforts, and he felt quite comforted in his heart!

Zhou Chengwu beat around the bush, asking Du Chengfeng if he had any thoughts of moving to a new position.

Du Chengfeng expressed his opinion, saying he would follow Zhou Chengwu's arrangements...

Although Zhou Chengwu was several years younger than Du Chengfeng, he still quite admired Du Chengfeng's character.

There is no lack of excellent cadres in the civil service; some are far ahead from the very beginning, while others are late bloomers!

After Du Chengfeng left, Zhou Chengwu dialed the phone number of the Provincial Party Secretary's Chief Secretary.

"Director Hao, this is Zhou Chengwu."

"Mayor Zhou, is there any situation?"

Zhou Chengwu said, "Regarding the case of the 300 million in special funds being misappropriated, I would like to report to Secretary Wen in person."

Secretary Hao said, "Secretary Wen is very concerned about this matter. He has ten minutes at three o'clock this afternoon. I will report this to Secretary Wen."

"Thank you, Director Hao."

"You're welcome."

Secretary Hao is often called 'Little Hao' in front of Wen Zhengming, but in reality, he is the number one favorite in Huai Province.

Who the Provincial Party Secretary meets every day and what information he comes into contact with are all arranged by him.

Therefore, Zhou Chengwu was extremely polite when communicating with him.

In the afternoon.

Zhou Chengwu met with Wen Zhengming on time.

Wen Zhengming's expression was very serious. "The misappropriation of 300 million in funds and the bank president's attempted suicide by jumping off a building have caused a bad public reaction. How is the investigation into this matter going?"

Zhou Chengwu said, "The case has been handed over to the Provincial Public Security Department for supervision. It has now been uncovered. These funds were used for a real estate project in Runzhou. And this project is related to Runzhou Municipal Party Committee Deputy Secretary He Haiyang."

"He Haiyang?" Wen Zhengming immediately had an impression. Some time ago, an old leader had called him to recommend He Haiyang for the position of Acting Mayor of Runzhou.

Zhou Chengwu nodded and said, "He Haiyang was once a Deputy Minister of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee. He was just sent down to Runzhou at the beginning of this year. However, after arriving in Runzhou, he did not adjust his mindset well. Here is a confession, which is the content voluntarily admitted by the developer Lian Kaisheng."

Wen Zhengming took the confession from Zhou Chengwu's hand, a cold look appearing in his eyes. "This He Haiyang is truly disappointing!"

Zhou Chengwu sighed and said, "There are many more twists in the whole affair. He Haiyang's brother-in-law, Shen Mingcheng, is suspected of illegal activities and hired human traffickers Ge Shu and Lan Yi to try to steal Du Chengfeng's newborn granddaughter. Fortunately, they were prepared in advance, so Shen Mingcheng did not succeed!"

Upon hearing this, Wen Zhengming could not help but continue to ask, "Is Shen Mingcheng's father Shen Baoshan?"

Zhou Chengwu nodded. "Yes!"

Wen Zhengming said speechlessly, "Comrade Baoshan is very upright; how did he produce such a wicked son!"

After speaking, he instructed Secretary Hao, "Little Hao, have the Provincial Party Committee Inspection Office set up a special investigation team for this matter. You must investigate the ins and outs of the matter clearly. Especially He Haiyang—get his issues cleared up."

Because his brother-in-law Shen Mingcheng was arrested, President Zhu attempted suicide by jumping off a building, and Lian Kaisheng turned himself in...

He Haiyang had been in a state of terror for the past few days.

He had originally come to Runzhou with ambition.

He did not expect that in just a few months, such a huge mess would be stirred up.

He Haiyang tried to tell himself not to panic so much.

After all, he himself had no economic problems.

Even if someone investigated him, he could still escape being held accountable!

The landline suddenly rang.

He Haiyang answered the phone.

He knew the number of the Provincial Party Committee by heart.

This number was from the Provincial Party Committee Supervision Office.

"May I ask if this is Secretary He?"

"I am Chen Feng from the Provincial Party Committee Supervision Office. According to the instructions of the Provincial Party Secretary, we are investigating the case of the misappropriation of 300 million in special funds. We need you to cooperate with our investigation."

"Alright, I will come to the Provincial Party Committee immediately."

Hanging up the phone, He Haiyang sighed!

The storm that was bound to come had finally arrived!

He Haiyang rushed to the Provincial Party Committee Inspection Office.

Deputy Director Chen Feng spoke with him in a small conference room.

"We have received a report that in a project in Runzhou, Lian Kaisheng claimed that you had put in a good word. Please explain this!"

He Haiyang said, "My brother-in-law was very interested in this project at the time, so I intervened a little. I admit that I have certain issues regarding this matter. However, I did not expect that he would collude with the bank president and misappropriate 300 million in special funds."

Chen Feng said in a deep voice, "Secretary He, according to what you mean, this matter has nothing to do with you?"

He Haiyang sighed and said, "It still has something to do with me. I was not cautious enough. But I absolutely did not interfere excessively. If you have relevant evidence, you can bring it out, and I will explain them one by one!"

Seeing that He Haiyang was being very stubborn, Chen Feng took out a photograph and placed it in front of He Haiyang.

"Secretary He, how do you explain this photograph?"

He Haiyang widened his eyes, shocked!

This photograph was actually the scene of him having laid Xiaowu down on the bed after he had eaten snake soup and become drunk that day.

Among the people present, besides Shen Minghan,

there was also another person, and that was Mingcheng's assistant, He Yu!

In other words!

This photograph was secretly taken by He Yu at that time...
