"District Chief Song, do you have any business here?"
Ji Lin asked, waiting for his response.
He actually knew why Song Guanchao was here, but even knowing, he had to ask.
Otherwise, if things just froze like this, who could bear it?
Song Guanchao said, "I heard Yan Han was arrested, Director Zhang, is this true?"
Zhang Jie snorted coldly, "Song Guanchao, do you know where you are?"
"This is the Provincial Developnt and Reform Commission, and you're facing the head of the Commission!"
"This kind of attitude..."
"Attitude?"
Song Guanchao rudely interrupted her, "Director Zhang, what kind of attitude do you want?"
"Using the tro project to threaten , is that your attitude?"
"Your nephew got caught in a DUI with drugs, and you want to confess?"
"Who do you think you are, Zhang Jie?"
"Been an official for so long, forgot how to be a decent person?"
Song Guanchao's tone was mocking and his words were harsh.
Zhang Jie was so angry her nostrils flared, her chest heaving.
Beside them, Ji Lin widened his eyes in disbelief, "Mom, you told him to confess?"
"Shut up!"
Zhang Jie scolded, looking at Song Guanchao, "The last incident is over, I didn't hold it against you, and now you won't let my nephew go..."
"The last incident is over?" Song Guanchao interrupted her again.
He chuckled coldly, "That's really sothing new."
"If it was really over, why are you still holding back the tro project?"
Zhang Jie didn't explain.
She was indeed deliberately holding it back.
Suddenly, Song Guanchao raised a finger, "I ca here today for two things."
"First, Yan Han's matter has nothing to do with . If I, Song Guanchao, wanted to deal with him, I wouldn't use such a stupid thod. If he pushed to make a move, believe , he wouldn't even have the chance to go to prison."
"Second, you can continue to hold back the tro project."
Saying that, he suddenly tilted his head to look at Ji Lin, smiled slightly, "You're holding it back as a sign of provocation against . Neither courtesy nor protocol, since you challenge , I surely have to make so gestures."
"Your nephew is in now, but you still have a son."
Ji Lin's heart jolted, this guy, using as a bargaining chip to threaten my mom?
"Bang!"
Zhang Jie slapped the table and stood up, "Song Guanchao, I dare you to try and touch him!"
With a smile, Song Guanchao stood up, "Don't slap the table at , I always an what I say."
"Three days."
He raised three fingers, "If the tro project isn't approved in three days, I'll cut off one of his fingers. Delay another day, I'll cut off another one!"
"Of course, you can also let him hide and see if he can hide forever."
To deal with soone like Zhang Jie who doesn't follow rules, only such rogue tactics would keep her in check.
Reason with her?
What a joke, if she was a reasonable person, Song Guanchao wouldn't have to co today.
Song Guanchao patted Ji Lin's shoulder, "Who told you to be her son? Since you enjoy the perks of being a second-generation official, you also have to pay the price when the ti cos."
Ji Lin wanted to retort, but when he t Song Guanchao's gaze, he suddenly shriveled.
In that instant, he had a gut feeling that three days later, if the tro project wasn't approved, Song Guanchao would really do it.
Leaving those words, Song Guanchao turned and left.
Unlocked the door, pushed it open, and left.
After he left, only then did Zhang Jie furiously slap the table, "Bastard!"
Since she beca Director, no one had ever contradicted her.
And after becoming the head of the Provincial Developnt and Reform Commission, even the Governor and Secretary would talk as equals.
But today, a re District Chief at the Standard Level, Song Guanchao, dared to threaten her!
Even boldly threatened to chop off her son's fingers!
What audacity, what swagger!
She adjusted her breathing, quickly suppressing her emotions.
She looked at Ji Lin, seeing the displeasure on her son's face, thinking he was scared by Song Guanchao, and comforted, "Ji Lin, don't be afraid..."
"Mom, can't you see clearly!"
Ji Lin suddenly shouted angrily, "This has nothing to do with Song Guanchao! Can't you calm down a bit?"
"How much trouble has Yan Han caused, every ti you clean up for him, when will you stop covering up for him?"
"Without any investigation, you assu it's Song Guanchao, and now look, you've provoked him, using as a threat against you!"
"Will you be happy when I beco disabled?"
Zhang Jie looked dumbfounded at Ji Lin, who was emotional, hurriedly said, "Son..."
However, Ji Lin turned around and left, slamming the door hard.
He was really fed up with the relatives on Zhang Jie's side.
This ti it really wasn't Yan Han's fault, but without any evidence, she went to threaten Song Guanchao.
In his view, only a brainless idiot would do such a thing.
He didn't care much about anyone being wronged, just simply because the one wronged was Song Guanchao.
This guy is a madman.
If he says he'll chop off my finger, he'll definitely do it!
Soone who dares to barge into the office of the Provincial Developnt and Reform Commission Director and make direct threats, would he be easily provoked?
But his mother just couldn't see that.
He felt both furious and powerless.
...
After casually grabbing sothing to eat outside, Song Guanchao returned to the Party School.
He decided to stay at the Party School until the Youth Class training ended, not going anywhere else.
Facing his recent threat, Zhang Jie had few options.
Either listen to him and approve the tro project application.
Or, try to take him out.
But Song Guanchao wouldn't give her that chance.
Three days later, if the project wasn't approved, he would make good on his word and ruin Ji Lin.
And once Ji Lin was ruined, it would be a fight to the death with Zhang Jie.
So, he had to think of a way to also get rid of Zhang Jie!
Thinking of this, Song Guanchao couldn't help but sigh.
The last ti he accepted Yan Han's apology was because he temporarily didn't want to offend Zhang Jie.
Unexpectedly, after just over half a month, he was about to choose to go head-to-head with Zhang Jie.
There's no other choice.
In the evening, after having dinner, Song Guanchao returned to his dorm and dialed Lu Feng's number.
"Madman, bring a few people to Jiangzhou, call when you settle down."
Although the agreent was for three days, during those three days, he had to keep an eye on Ji Lin.
If the guy ran off early, where would he find him afterward?
If he said he'd chop off a finger, he'd have to do it, otherwise Zhang Jie might think he was just making empty threats.
Close to ten in the evening, Lu Feng arrived with two others.
Song Guanchao sent over Ji Lin's photo and identity, telling them to keep a watch on him.
Ti passed day by day.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
It was Friday today, with the sun shining brightly.
After the morning classes, Song Guanchao strolled around the party school, dialing Qu Xiangru's number.
"Secretary Qu, has the tro project been approved?"
"No." Qu Xiangru's voice sounded sowhat tired.
These past two days, Qu Xiangru had probably contacted Zhang Jie as well, and it evidently didn't turn out well.
"Then let her keep holding it back."
Song Guanchao sneered, imdiately calling Lu Feng.
"Madman, grab him."
