"What he did has nothing to do with whether he's retired or not."
"There will be no more Liang family."
"Just live your own life well, you have enough money to support yourself in your retirement."
Say it.
Qi Tongwei hung up the phone immediately.
On the other end of the phone.
Liang Lu looked at the disconnected phone and wanted to call back, but in the end she didn't press the call button.
He leaned against the wall.
It gradually slid down.
Curled up in the corner, she was completely devastated and in despair!
After her divorce from Qi Tongwei, Qi Tongwei not only did not fall from his position, but the Liang family also targeted him.
They fell from the lofty Liang family into the abyss!
From then on... there was no more Liang family in Handong!

She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.
And on the other side.
Beijing!
In a dimly lit room, Zhao Lichun sat in his chair, his eyes filled with sorrow.
just now.
He received intelligence from Handong.
Following the arrest of his son, Zhao Ruilong.
Now his second daughter, Zhao Xiaohui, has also been arrested, and the evidence against her is irrefutable, leaving him with absolutely no chance of overturning the verdict!
Furthermore, Huilong Group will be completely wiped out this time.
This is equivalent to Zhao Lichun having one of his arms and legs cut off in Handong!
At a time when Zhao Lichun's control over the political scene in Handong was already at its lowest point, the complete takeover of Huilong Group was an almost unacceptable loss for him!
In Zhao Lichun's view...
Huilong Group was completely shut down, and its own children were arrested one after another.
This is already a clear signal!
His superiors might be about to take action against him! Zhao Lichun's position is likely in jeopardy!
If this continues.
His end is just around the corner, Zhao Lichun!
Therefore, he absolutely cannot sit idly by and wait to die!
We must find a way to take the initiative and change the current situation! Handong absolutely cannot continue like this, otherwise, once we lose Handong as our cornerstone, Zhao Lichun will have nowhere to stand!
But right now.
Zhao Lichun faces two major challenges.
One is that the Zhao family's influence in Handong has now been reduced to its lowest level.
Originally, they could still influence Handong through Huilong Group, but now even Huilong Group is about to be wiped out.
How will the Zhao family influence the course of the situation in Handong?
As for the high-ranking officials in Handong, Gao Yuliang had already distanced himself from the Zhao family. Now that this incident has occurred, it is even more impossible to get Gao Yuliang to obey.
Li Dakang's secretaries are even more unreliable.
The moment Sha Ruijin parachuted in, he immediately defected to him.
Currently, the Zhao family's only ally in Handong is the Zhong family.
Although the Zhao family and the Zhong family also have conflicts.
However, both sides share the same goal: Handong. Neither the Zhao family nor the Zhong family can stand by and watch someone else reap the benefits of Handong!
But even so.
Even with the Zhao and Zhong families joining forces, their influence over Handong is still too low!
It's far less influential than a special envoy stationed in Handong!
And the second question.
It's clear that the higher-ups are now being extra wary of Zhao Lichun. He already held a sinecure, and now they're making him constantly hand over his work to others.
It's as if he's being asked to retire in his old age.
This has left Zhao Lichun with less and less real power, and he is becoming increasingly marginalized!
These two difficult problems are now facing Zhao Lichun.
This makes it difficult for Zhao Lichun to surpass him.
"No... We absolutely cannot just sit here and wait to die!"
After much deliberation, Zhao Lichun finally decided to take a gamble!
He has one last card to play!
Zhao Lichun has three children: Zhao Ruilong (the youngest) and Zhao Xiaohui (the second).
There's also an older daughter!
Zhao Lichun's trump card is his eldest daughter's husband!
He is Zhao Lichun's son-in-law!
P.S.: It feels like just yesterday I was getting closer to the 500,000-word mark!!!
Chapter 224 Sha Ruijin's Attitude! Seize Huilong Group!
And on the other side.
The news of Zhao Xiaohui, Hou Liangping, and Liang Lu's elder brother's arrest did not only reach Zhao Lichun.
Sha Ruijin also received the news.
Furthermore, as the provincial party secretary, Sha Ruijin had access to much more accurate and detailed information.
For this major operation.
All parties called Sha Ruijin to report on the details of the operation.
Anti-Corruption Bureau Director Yi Xuexi, Prosecutor General Ji Changming, Provincial Public Security Department Director Qi Tongwei, and Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary Tian Guofu all reported to Sha Ruijin.
However, they were only reporting.
It is clear that Sha Ruijin did not have control over this operation.
Even as the provincial party secretary, Sha Ruijin could not directly interfere with the joint actions of these departments.
Not to mention, Sha Ruijin isn't really able to command these departments anymore...
In the past, Sha Ruijin would have been furious, since he hadn't heard a word about these important departmental actions beforehand.
Did they treat him, the provincial party secretary, as a mere figurehead?
This would definitely make the previous Sha Ruijin very angry and feel unable to accept it.
But now Sha Ruijin has changed his attitude.
He knew that now was not the time to confront Special Envoy Mu Chen head-on; such a confrontation would only bring harm and no benefit.
Just like Zhao Xiaohui, Hou Liangping, and the Liang family this time.
Even if all means are exhausted.
Once Gao Xiaoqin's defenses were breached, there would have been an immediate opportunity to bring down Qi Tongwei, but in the end, it all fell apart.
It was even uprooted!
Not a single one is left!
This is the price for openly opposing Special Envoy Mu Chen!
Sha Ruijin would not be so foolish again, but planned to endure it in secret. Endurance means being able to withstand it and think things through!
Let's wait and see what happens.
Let's wait for the future!
And right now.
A phone call suddenly came in, and Sha Ruijin answered it. The voice of Li Dakang, the Party Secretary of Jingzhou City, came from the other end of the line.
"Hello, Secretary Sha, this is Li Dakang."
