Qu Xiangru and Wu Qiangwei appropriately showed expressions of surprise.
"Scammed?"
Qu Xiangru's voice carried a hint of confusion, as if asking or confirming.
Zheng Bihui nodded, and recounted the whole incident in detail.
As he narrated, the two Secretaries' expressions finally showed some change.
After finishing, Zheng Bihui took out a cigarette and lit it.
Now, the two Secretaries also knew about the matter.
Although the greatest responsibility still lay with him, as the leading figure in Lingjiang, Qu Xiangru certainly could not stand by idly.
There is power in numbers.
Wasn't his coming to the City Committee precisely to gather collective wisdom and discuss strategies?
Qu Xiangru's expression turned somewhat grim, looking at Zheng Bihui with an unkind gaze.
The two of them, knowing they were at fault, looked embarrassed and avoided meeting his eyes.
After a long silence, Qu Xiangru picked up the landline.
"Secretary Wang, come over here."
