Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lang Nan said tentatively, “i won’t let you work for me for nothing. After this is done, I’ll definitely thank you heavily.”
“Deputy Governor Lang, if there’s anything, just say it.” Wang Ming was secretly delighted. If Lang Nan could owe him a favor, his future career as an official would be smooth sailing. “As long as it’s something 1, Wang Ming, can do, 1 won’t hesitate to come to hell or high water.”
“Chief Wang, it’s not that serious. Why would i let you risk your life?”
Lang Nan stubbed out the cigarette in his hand and paused for a moment before saying, “Actually, Cheng Yan has a backer you can’t afford to offend. Her status is not inferior to mine. That person has already found me through some connections and wants to make things convenient for Cheng Yan.”
He was very careful with his words. In order not to directly get involved with Cheng Yan, he didn’t directly say that she was his man, but casually brought up a non-existent person to put pressure on Wang Ming to release Cheng Yan.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a very obvious pause in Wang Ming’s originally confident tone.
He had never dreamed that this was Lang Nan’s ultimate goal. As the chief of the police station, doing this was simply breaking the law. Once he was discovered or reported, his career would be ruined.
Even though he was facing Deputy Governor Lang and the big shot he said was comparable, Wang Ming still didn’t dare agree easily. At this moment, he was completely caught in a dilemma. However, no matter what, he had to make a choice in the end.
It was the pause on the phone that made Lang Nan guess what Wang Ming was thinking. After all, he was also someone in a high position, so he could completely understand these concerns.
“Chief Wang, I understand what you’re thinking, but 1 can tell you firmly that you don’t have to worry about this.”
Lang Nan’s voice gradually rose. “You only need to be responsible for the situation in your police station. I’ll arrange everything else for you. It can be said that only the three of us know about this. There will definitely not be a fourth.”
Even though Lang Nan was very certain, it still couldn’t completely dispel Wang Ming’s concerns.
“But,” Wang Ming thought for two seconds before saying what he was thinking. “The higher you stand, the worse you fall. It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but this concerns my entire life, so I have to be careful.”
“Chief Wang, it’s too late to be cautious now. Without you, we can still pressure you through other channels until you let Cheng Yan out.”
Now, Lang Nan’s tone was no longer negotiating, but threatening. “This is a heaven-sent opportunity for you. If you choose to refuse, your career will also end here. But if you agree, I can guarantee that you’ll soar within a few years.” At this point, Wang Ming finally understood.
Lang Nan had never had the attitude of discussing it with him from the beginning. To put it bluntly, it was no different from forcing him. But even so, there was nothing he could do. It was because the officials protected each other.
Lang Nan was right. As long as he rejected him today, the position of police chief would definitely change in a few days. Therefore, from the looks of it, the only and best way was to agree to him and become a grasshopper in the same boat from now on, or even walk a path of no return.
For himself, but also for his family, Wang Ming had no other choice.
“Deputy Governor Lang, is what you said true?”
Wang Ming had no way out, so he could only confirm that his future would be smooth sailing. “As long as 1 help you, my status definitely won’t be threatened in any way. 1 don’t beg for my future to be rich and prosperous. I just hope it’ll be safe and sound.”
“Of course, there’s no problem. If you work for me, you can have some bold ideas.”
From his question, Lang Nan knew that his heart was beginning to waver.. “Don’t forget, according to the current situation, who is the most popular candidate for the next governor?”
