Chapter 883: That Night, There Were Two People!

Zhang Tongshan smelled the scent of money.

Full of joy, he canceled his card game and rushed to Ding Family Kitchen.

After entering, he discovered that Qiao Lin had brought another person along.

This person was tall and looked very familiar!

"Who is this?" Zhang Tongshan asked cautiously.

Qiao Lin hurriedly introduced: "This is the Deputy County Party Secretary Tang Ye. You wanted me to introduce you before, and today we finally have the chance!"

Zhang Tongshan reacted immediately and said busily: "Secretary Tang, I've long admired your name! I've always wanted to find an opportunity to get to know you."

Zhang Tongshan had long known Tang Ye's identity; the current favorable situation in Dayu County was inseparable from Tang Ye's efforts.

He had always wanted to befriend Tang Ye, but Qiao Lin had always found excuses to decline; today, he had finally gotten his wish.

It seemed Qiao Lin hadn't been fooling him.

Perhaps he would make a fortune today!

After sitting down, Zhang Tongshan smiled and said to Qiao Lin: "Director Qiao, when you set up this meeting today, you should have at least given me a heads-up! I haven't prepared anything; this is so embarrassing."

Tang Ye waved his hand and took over the conversation: "President Zhang, you are too polite. Inviting you to dinner today is actually because there is a matter I would like to help you resolve."

Zhang Tongshan smiled immediately: "Since Secretary Tang has spoken, as long as it is something I can handle, I will certainly do my utmost."

Tang Ye sighed softly: "This afternoon, my Liaison Officer Xiao Ma took away a little girl. I hope President Zhang will step in and resolve the matter."

Zhang Tongshan was stunned for a moment and subconsciously glanced at Qiao Lin.

Qiao Lin hurriedly explained: "The one who took the person from Lu Lu's beauty salon is Secretary Tang's Liaison Officer."

Only then did Zhang Tongshan fully realize what was happening.

This meeting was not simply to introduce them to each other.

Rather, Secretary Tang wanted to "smooth things over" for his own people!

This was a good opportunity to get to know Tang Ye!

He immediately picked up the wine glass on the table, faced Tang Ye, and beamed: "I wondered what big deal it was; it turns out to be just this little thing! Since you've spoken, let's just pretend it never happened."

Tang Ye also picked up his wine glass and clinked it lightly against Zhang Tongshan's: "President Zhang is a straightforward person; I like making friends with people of your character!"

As they spoke, the two drank the wine in their glasses in one gulp.

Watching Tang Ye and Zhang Tongshan successfully "break the ice," Qiao Lin sneered inwardly.

Zhang Tongshan was very conceited and would never guess that he was cooperating with Tang Ye in an act to betray himself!

Furthermore, Tang Ye's acting was too realistic.

If he didn't know the "script," he would probably have been fooled by him too.

After a few glasses of wine, Zhang Tongshan's words gradually increased, and his habit of boasting and bragging was exposed along with them.

"Secretary Tang, I won't dare say anything else, but in this area of Yanzhou, if you run into any trouble, just come directly to me; I guarantee I can help you resolve it."

Tang Ye smiled faintly and followed up by asking: "I heard that President Zhang's uncle is a leader in the city?"

Zhang Tongshan waved his hand and lowered his voice: "My uncle has always told me not to use his name; we have to be low-key. After all, the business I do cannot see the light of day."

Tang Ye immediately put on a sincere expression: "President Zhang, you have quite a lot of assets now; why not do some legal projects?"

Zhang Tongshan curled his lips: "Secretary Tang, these days it's 'the timid starve to death, the bold are stuffed to death.' Anyone can do legal things, but there are too many monks and too little porridge; how can it be as profitable as 'special industries'?"

Tang Ye sneered inwardly, but on his face, he feigned a look of admiration and envy: "President Zhang is truly a man who does big things."

Zhang Tongshan smiled and waved his hand: "Secretary Tang, you are the one who does big things! My uncle has mentioned you many times in private, saying you will surely rise step by step in the future. I will have to rely on your care in the future!"

Tang Ye picked up his wine glass: "Easy to say!"

Zhang Tongshan drank another glass, and seeing that he had become familiar with Tang Ye, he simply pushed the boundaries: "Secretary Tang, I heard you came to Dayu County alone; do you feel lonely? I'll give you a card; all consumption can be free."

Tang Ye took the card, looked at it, and then smiled as he handed it back: "No need, thank you for your kindness, President Zhang."

Zhang Tongshan was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud: "How about this then, I will regularly arrange for someone to come to your place to cook for you, and I guarantee the quality of the food will be first-class."

Tang Ye naturally understood the subtext of Zhang Tongshan's words.

The so-called "coming to cook" was nothing more than a code word.

He said calmly: "President Zhang, I am a civil servant and must pay attention to my lifestyle and conduct; I cannot be as unrestrained as you."

Zhang Tongshan instead felt that Tang Ye was "flattering" him and became even more smug:

"Secretary Tang, living in this world, one must learn to enjoy life!

Don't worry, I am tight-lipped and will never let anything slip."

Tang Ye smiled and deliberately changed the subject: "President Zhang, I heard that the little girl Ma Ran brought out is not yet an adult."

Zhang Tongshan waved his hand indifferently: "That was because I didn't know at the time! Your Liaison Officer has quite a temper and caused a bit of unpleasantness. I have plenty of girls in my hands, of all styles, and I guarantee I can satisfy you."

Seeing that the topic had reached the point, Tang Ye followed up: "Is that so? But I also heard that these girls were all abducted. President Zhang, aren't you afraid that one day the matter will be exposed?"

Zhang Tongshan suddenly sensed that Tang Ye's tone was wrong.

The drunkenness on his body sobered up by more than half in an instant.

Before he could react, Tang Ye stood up abruptly and deliberately kicked over his chair.

Hearing the commotion, Xing Zhijun from next door immediately led his men and rushed in!

Zhang Tongshan stared at the police who had descended from the sky!

A chill shot straight from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

He looked at Qiao Lin and Tang Ye in shock and anger: "Th-this, what is going on?"

"Hahahaha!" Qiao Lin sat in his chair, looked up at the ceiling, and laughed loudly: "Zhang Tongshan, you've been set up! You can't escape now!"

Zhang Tongshan stared fixedly at Qiao Lin: "Y-you, what do you mean?"

Tang Ye put away his smile and said sternly: "Zhang Tongshan, you are now being arrested in accordance with the law."

Only then did Zhang Tongshan fully realize what was happening; he instantly flew into a rage, pointed at Qiao Lin's nose, and cursed: "Qiao Lin, you bastard! Aren't you afraid that I'll spill everything about you?"

Seeing Zhang Tongshan rush toward Qiao Lin, two Police officers grabbed his arms tightly from the left and right.

One of the Police officers kicked Zhang Tongshan in the back of the knee, while the other stepped forward to search him, pulling a switchblade from his pocket.

Qiao Lin could no longer suppress the rage pent up in his heart; he rushed over and swung his fist hard into Zhang Tongshan's face:

"This punch is for Lu Yun!"

Zhang Tongshan spat out a mouthful of blood, stared viciously at Qiao Lin, and deliberately provoked him with his words:

"Why not throw another punch? There were two people that night. Aren't you going to take revenge for your sister-in-law too?"

Qiao Lin was so angry his eyes turned bloodshot, his fists clenching with a creaking sound.

Tang Ye and Xing Zhijun exchanged a glance, looking at each other in dismay!

The conflict between Zhang Tongshan and Qiao Lin.

It really was related to the pair of sisters, Lu Yun and Lu Lu...
