Rebirth of Corrupt Officials - Chapter 70

Qiao Yusheng pulled him to run in the corridor, but Jiang Xiaochuan couldn’t run.

A bullet that penetrated the heart was fatal.

Qiao Yusheng noticed something unusual about him and stopped. Today he was not wearing a white coat but an ordinary beige jacket. Rong Shaobai’s accident did not make him lose his calmness – at least his superficial calmness.

He stopped and looked at Jiang Xiaochuan.

Jiang Xiaochuan’s expression was dull. He remembered Rong Shaobai saying that Qingtuan and Hong wanted to attack him, but why did it end with Rong Shaobai dying?

He asked, “Who did it?”

Qiao Yusheng sneered, “If they want to kill you, it must be Qingtuan and Hong group; if they originally wanted to kill Rong Shaobai… then… it’s…”

It was someone he couldn’t tell to Jiang Xiaochuan.

Both of them were in the room, but the one who died was Rong Shaobai. Qiao Yusheng had to doubt that person because Xue Yan was almost assassinated before.

Jiang Xiaochuan didn’t ask who it was because it was obvious that Qiao Yusheng didn’t want to say.

He took out his mobile phone and Wei Lai called.

He said to Qiao Yusheng, “Rong Shaobai said, I can ask you something.”

“You want to ask – did Xue Yan’s knife come from me?” Qiao Yusheng knew very well that Rong Shaobai had already told him. But he didn’t expect after he received a text message from Rong Shaobai, when he opened the door, he saw a blood-stained Rong Shaobai.

Although people in the underworld had long been mentally prepared for such a life and death situation, seeing an outstanding person suddenly collapse felt like someone punched him hard in the heart and he couldn’t breathe.

Since he asked it first, it must be him.

Jiang Xiaochuan didn’t ask anymore, he just turned around and walked quickly toward the elevator. Rong Family Club’s was also a dangerous place now. Even if his heart was turbulent, he would never lose his calm. If it was Qingtuan and Hong who took action, then – Xue Yan was in danger!

Rong Shaobai could be targeted by the high-range sniper rifle from the opposite side, so what would Xue Yan encounter in the hospital?

His heart felt cold. Qiao Yusheng couldn’t figure out where Jiang Xiaochuan was going at this time. He grabbed him and shouted, “Do you know what kind of chaos is happening outside? As soon as you go out, you could be stabbed, and they could use a scapegoat, but they would kill you directly!”

“I want to see Xue Yan, please let go.” Jiang Xiaochuan’s eyes were cold. He seemed safe in Rong Family’s Club, even if Jiang Xiaochuan cherished his life. What he cherished more was Xue Yan’s life. Xue Yan knew too much. Chengzhou was in chaos now. Who could guarantee that nothing would happen to Xue Yan?

“…”

Xue Yan.

Qiao Yusheng paused.

‘I mistrusted you.’, Xue Yan said that he was mistaken in trusting him.

Qiao Yusheng raised his head, stood on the edge of the corridor, and suddenly asked, “Where are the files?”

Files?

Jiang Xiaochuan’s pupils shrank, his whole body tensed up, and there was a hint of evil in his eyes. He actually smiled slightly: “What did you say?”

“Xue Yan once asked me to send you the file. Didn’t you receive it?” He still said, “Speaking of which, why did you do such a thing at that time?”

That file was what Qingtuan and Hong longed for, and it would have become a fatal weapon in Rong Shaobai’s hands. However, he followed Xue Yan’s wishes and violated Rong Shaobai’s original instructions and sent the file to Jiang Xiaochuan.

Rong Shaobai was very kind to him, but at the critical moment, he turned to that damn Xue Yan.

Jiang Xiaochuan naturally received the file, but he asked Wei Lai to hand in a file, and now it mysteriously disappeared. “The file was handed in, but it disappeared again.”

“I’m going down to see Wei Lai, President Rong…” He was obviously ready to withdraw completely, but now he left so lightly.

“This is the underworld. The young boys in Hong Kong had a saying: When you go out to hang out, you always have to pay back. Many things are out of your control, and the mud you stained will never be washed away. There are many talented people in the Rong family who will step on Rong Shaobai’s cold corpse, build the foundation of the Rong Group on his sacrifice and blood, and then proudly tell future generations that this is a great and glorious sacrifice.”

It should have been a very emotional sentence, but it was extremely sarcastic in Qiao Yusheng’s mouth.

He lit the cigarette, took a long puff, and said to Jiang Xiaochuan, “I agree for you to see Xue Yan at this time. But you must ask your secretary to leave immediately. This is not the place where he should stay. This is a murder case of Mr. Rong. You go call him. I still have something to do, two minutes, we only have two minutes.”

Qiao Yusheng ignored Jiang Xiaochuan and walked quickly along the corridor, pushing open the central control room door.

Jiang Xiaochuan called Wei Lai.

“Mayor Jiang, I’m here, you-”

“You leave Rong Family’s Club immediately and go back to your own home. You haven’t been here tonight.” Jiang Xiaochuan also knew this matter was of great importance and he absolutely couldn’t let Wei Lai be implicated. He ignored Wei Lai’s questions and continued, “Don’t tell anyone about the files. Chengzhou’s situation is going to change. Wei Lai, keep your eyes open. Maybe you will see this once in your life. After that, just resign. The position of secretary is not suitable for you.”

Wei Lai was silent on the other end. He didn’t know what had happened, but listening to Jiang Xiaochuan’s words, he felt that everything had come to an end.
