Chapter Twenty-Three: Making a Big Move
After hearing He Jun's words, Zhang Qiu smiled slightly and replied, "I've already thought this through. A reporter from Beijing saw the post I made in the forum. Tonight, she's coming to interview me. You can grab the person later, and in the evening, I'll tell her the details. Once she reports it, the matter will be exposed."
"You really have a plan!" He Jun chuckled bitterly; he had never realized that his nephew had such capabilities.
Zhang Qiu grinned, and He Jun continued, "This is a make-or-break situation. Wang Guodong has been in business for so many years; he won't be easy to deal with. But you—he would never expect a high school student to be after him."
The real reason He Jun was determined was because of Wang Guodong. If it were just a few thugs, they wouldn't pose a threat to Wang Guodong's position. However, Zhang Qiu was targeting Wang Guodong's brother-in-law, which made all the difference. Everyone in the bureau knew that Wang Guodong's wife was famously protective of her brother. This time would be no exception. As long as things were handled well, if Wang Guodong lost his position as director, no matter who came from outside to take over as director of the Beilan County Public Security Bureau, it would stir up a storm in the stagnant waters.
"I understand." Zhang Qiu hung up the phone with a smile on his lips and immediately called Yang Yu. When the call connected, Yang Yu asked, "Brother Qiu, have you changed your mind?"
"I have, but we need to come up with a new plan; this one is a bit thrilling," Zhang Qiu replied calmly. With his uncle's arrangements in place, everything was set on his end.
Yang Yu perked up at once: "Thrilling? Brother Qiu, just tell me what to do; I love thrilling stuff."
"Liu Xiaolong has a younger brother named Liu Xiaofei. Right now, he's blocking me at the county hospital..." Before Zhang Qiu could finish, Yang Yu interrupted him, "Damn! Brother Qiu, wait for me; I'll bring people over right away."
"Hold on; let me finish." Zhang Qiu could tell that Yang Yu was genuinely anxious, and warmth filled his heart. True feelings are revealed in times of trouble; it was evident in their conversation.
"Brother Qiu, I'm listening."
"Do you remember what I told you before? My uncle is with the Public Security Bureau," Zhang Qiu asked.
On the other end of the phone, Yang Yu paused for a moment, as if recalling, "I think it was a while ago; I don't have much impression of it."
"He's now the deputy director. I've contacted my uncle; you bring people over to mix it up with Liu Xiaofei's crew. At that time, my uncle will bring the police to catch all of you."
"Haha, Brother Qiu, you wouldn't want to catch me too, would you?" Yang Yu joked.
"What about you?" Zhang Qiu also laughed. The playful banter reminded him of their middle school days. After a while, Zhang Qiu returned to reality and continued, "After your uncle takes you away, he will let go of your people midway and only take Liu Xiaofei and his accomplices."
"That works, but Brother Qiu, I don't understand; isn't this too complicated? Why not just go find him directly and beat them up? Wouldn't that be more satisfying?" Yang Yu preferred a straightforward approach.
"This is just the beginning. Among those involved are Liu Xiaolong's people. We’ll link them to the demolition issue and drag them all into it. I've also contacted a reporter; if we handle this well, we can create a big event targeting Police Chief Wang Guodong." Zhang Qiu laid out the plan for Yang Yu without holding anything back. After a pause, he added, "Think about it; isn't it exciting enough?"
"Alright, Brother Qiu, let's do it!" Yang Yu said excitedly. "It's always great working with Brother Qiu; you're amazing."
"Okay, then come over now to the entrance of the county hospital lobby. Call me when you arrive," Zhang Qiu instructed.
With everything arranged, Zhang Qiu looked at Wang Jinghan and waved his hand in front of her eyes, saying, "What are you daydreaming about?"
"You just... um, shocked me," she replied. In truth, she had been thinking how cool he was. Zhang Qiu's demeanor and words made Wang Jinghan recall a poem often recited by her grandfather: "Just like young students in their prime; full of vigor and ambition, pointing out the landscape."
Is he praising himself? Zhang Qiu smiled appreciatively but didn't notice Wang Jinghan's change in mood. She felt an inexplicable sense of loss regarding Zhang Qiu. She had a feeling about him; however, even if Zhang Qiu liked her back, she wouldn't be with him.
"How long does it take to get from here to the lobby?" After running hurriedly and turning so many corners earlier, Zhang Qiu wasn't even sure where he was in the hospital now.
Wang Jinghan looked around and thought, "About ten minutes. If there are many people waiting for the elevator, it might take a bit longer."
Zhang Qiu calculated the time; it wouldn't be long before his uncle would bring people over. Yang Yu noted that they would arrive here quickly. Once everything was ready, it would be his turn to appear. "Let's head to the lobby entrance now," Zhang Qiu said.
"Okay, follow me," Wang Jinghan replied, pulling Zhang Qiu's arm as they walked toward the elevator entrance.
