93: Chapter 93 Using Another's Strength to Fight Back

After seeing this scene, Wang Xiuming knew that this matter was likely Director Bai's doing.

He didn't know what Director Bai was thinking, to actually set his sights on Hongqi.

Now he had lifted a rock only to drop it on his own feet; he really had tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice instead!

"Is this matter resolved just like that? Won't he come looking for trouble with me in the future? If he uses his authority to make things difficult for me, what should I do? I don't want to get dealt with by someone before the matter is even resolved!"

At this moment, Wang Xiuming put on an expression of being very afraid and worried.

Of course, Wang Xiuming knew that this matter could certainly be resolved through the hands of Xu Qing.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have acted so forcefully.

But he needed a definitive answer right now.

If anything were to go wrong with this matter.

I'm afraid trouble would come knocking again.

So, it was necessary to resolve all issues cleanly right now.

"You don't need to worry anymore; I have resolved this matter for you. However, I must give you a heads-up in advance: I cannot help you resolve things every single time. After this, you will need to put in more effort to strive for yourself, and such situations should not happen again!"

Wang Xiuming said, "Since you are my contact person, shouldn't you secure some benefits and perks for me? That way, I won't have to wonder who to turn to for help every time I'm bullied by others."

"Since you are someone who can help me, let's be straightforward. Let's exchange contact information. If I get bullied again, I'll come to you. How about that?"

Xu Qing looked at Wang Xiuming, who was acting so slippery.

It couldn't help but frown at this moment.

"I have already said that I am only helping you resolve this matter; it does not mean that I will help you resolve every single matter. You had better get that straight!"

"Of course I know you said you wouldn't help me with everything. Since we have such a good relationship, why don't we just lay everything out on the table and be done with it?"

Wang Xiuming was still trying to cozy up to it.

Unexpectedly, a knock sounded at the door.

When the door was opened, Director Bai appeared in front of the two of them, sweating profusely.

"Director Bai, you are getting on in years, so you shouldn't be running around for no reason. Just tell us what we need to do to satisfy you. If you can be satisfied and help us resolve these issues cleanly, I guarantee we won't bother you again in the future!"

"Besides, for such trivial matters, we shouldn't keep bothering you. No, really, just tell us what we should do so you won't be angry anymore!"

Wang Xiuming spoke bluntly to Director Bai.

He even took out an envelope that had been prepared well in advance.

Inside was a thick stack.

Wang Xiuming acted very savvy.

"Do you remember? This is what you told me last time, that I need to show some appreciation. You even lectured me, saying that I, as a junior, was ignorant and didn't know how to show appreciation when meeting an elder."

"At first, I didn't understand what was going on, but after some guidance from my colleagues, I realized that this is what you needed!"

Wang Xiuming 'inconspicuously' stuffed the envelope into Director Bai's hands.

Seeing Wang Xiuming pull this stunt, Director Bai's expression turned somewhat ugly.

He never expected this brat to be so troublesome.

He had indeed mentioned such a thing before.

But to stuff an envelope into his hand in front of an investigator...

This was clearly trying to send him to prison.

"I have never said any such thing. Xiao Wang, you are joking a bit too much. I am a person in charge appointed by the higher-ups; how could I accept these things?"

"Aren't you joking with me? If I accepted these things, it would be a violation of discipline. I absolutely cannot accept them!"

At this moment, Wang Xiuming put on an expression of sudden realization.

He blurted out, 'straightforwardly'.

"Don't worry, in order to get you to show mercy, I didn't just want to give this to you in person; I've also put a lot of good things in your car, and I've already sent people to your home. Rest assured, I guarantee this was done flawlessly!"

Wang Xiuming was relentlessly framing Director Bai.

Director Bai didn't even know what to say at this point.

He had indeed accepted benefits, but these benefits were not from Wang Xiuming, but from those foreign merchants.

Seeing that Hongqi was regaining vitality, especially with its new energy vehicles becoming better and better, the foreign merchants were worried.

At this time, they showed a strong desire to suppress it.

The most direct method was the charging fees.

They bribed Director Bai and wanted him to exert pressure to ensure that the electricity costs for Hongqi vehicles were half as high again as other vehicles.

In this way, they could completely extinguish the desire of a large number of people to purchase Hongqi.

This was a legitimate-looking plan.

When Director Bai saw this plan, he felt it was foolproof.

He simply went along with it and staged this scene.

But who would have thought that Wang Xiuming would not play by the rules at all.

With just a few sentences, he dragged these matters back to the negotiating table.

Moreover, Director Bai was now like a mute eating coptis—suffering in silence.

The matter of Director Bai previously accepting fees from foreign merchants would inevitably be dug up now.

This matter hadn't even been resolved yet.

Wang Xiuming was adding fuel to the fire by stuffing a red envelope into his hand in front of Xu Qing.

This was clearly trying to drive Director Bai to his doom.

"Director Bai, don't you need to explain this matter properly? How come I never knew that there was such a thing as accepting benefits? Isn't what you've done a bit too much?"

Xu Qing spoke up directly and calmly at this moment.

As it spoke, it frowned slightly.

Director Bai broke into a cold sweat, hurriedly pushing his hands away, indicating that he knew nothing about these matters and that he had been framed.

"Investigator, you must believe me. These matters have nothing to do with me at all. I have never asked him for any benefits!"

"This was all voluntary on his part... no, that's not right. This was not my intention; he forced it into my hands himself!"

"I guarantee I haven't received a single bit of benefit. I, I am not that kind of person!"

Director Bai hurriedly spoke up to state his position.
