Chapter 583: Receiving Blame From Both Sides
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Liu Guozheng’s body trembled, and Han Shangyuan’s question scared his soul away.
His heart was twitching nervously, but he was still trying his best to think of a way to salvage the situation.
Jian Changsheng didn’t ask him to do so. All of this resulted from his decision. He also thought of dragging the Jian Group down with him. After all, the other party was a celebrity corporation in Baiyun City, the leader of the real estate industry. When Senior Official Han heard the name ‘Jian Group,‘ he might consider the other party’s face and let him off.
However, if it did not work, not only would he be in a quagmire, but he would also offend the Jian Group. Wouldn’t that be equivalent to receiving blame from both sides and putting himself in a difficult position?
After struggling in his heart for a while, Liu Guozheng still removed the Jian Group and took responsibility for the consequences. “Senior Official Han, I was careless in this matter. I didn’t make the correct judgment immediately. It’s my fault. I reflect on myself!”
With that said, Bai Zhou finally raised his eyes to look at Liu Guozheng.
At this time, he still refused to let go. The person who instigated him behind his back should have an important position in the business world of Baiyun City.
This seemed to be the Jian Group.
Liu Guozheng never expected that even if he didn’t say it, Bai Zhou would have already guessed everything from various signs.
“Brother Han, I still have something on later. Please help me resolve this matter quickly,” Bai Zhou said indifferently.
He had already achieved his goal. As to whether Han Shangyuan would punish Liu Guozheng, he was not concerned.
Han Shangyuan initially wanted to teach Liu Guozheng, who had caused him trouble, a lesson in front of Bai Zhou. However, when he heard Bai Zhou’s words, he immediately changed his words. “Did you bring the public seal?”
Liu Guozheng nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes.”
Han Shangyuan gave him a look. Liu Guozheng didn’t dare to say anything. He picked up the proposal without hesitation and flipped to the last page to seal his approval.
Bai Zhou took the proposal with the public seal and stood up. He smiled at Han Shangyuan. “Thank you.”
“Mr. Bai, don’t be so polite. Our people caused trouble for your company,” Han Shangyuan stood up and apologized gently.
Bai Zhou chatted with Han Shangyuan for a while longer and left the City Hall with the document.
After he left, only Han Shangyuan and Liu Guozheng were left in the office.
Liu Guozheng looked around and carefully said, “Ah… Senior Official Han, I have work in the afternoon. If there’s nothing else…”
Before he could finish speaking, he received Han Shangyuan’s sharp gaze, scaring Liu Guozheng so much that he quickly shut his mouth.
“If I remember correctly, you only rose to this position a year ago, right?” Han Shangyuan looked at him and asked coldly.
Liu Guozheng wiped the sweat on his forehead and nodded gently.
Han Shangyuan sighed. Liu Guozheng’s action was no small matter. It was a huge taboo in the political world to practice favoritism. He had caught him this time, but he did not know if he had done anything else in private.
If such a person stayed in the station as a director, the entire Audit Bureau would be in a mess.
“Go back and wait for the notice. I’ll inform you after I have a meeting with the other leaders in the city.” Han Shangyuan did not show mercy because Bai Zhou did not pursue the matter.
He was also someone who could not tolerate sand in his eyes.
