This question was too sharp, and Lieutenant General Jin wasn’t prepared for it. His face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
“What do you mean? !”He could only bluff and blame He Zhichu to divert attention away from this question.
However, He Zhichu not only had He Chengjian’s support, but he also had his own skills as a lawyer. He could not let Lieutenant General Jin brush over this matter just like that.
“I don’t mean anything by it. I just want to know why this female reporter was looking for you to leak the information to,” He Zhichu said calmly. “Even if she were to leak the information online, it would be more understandable than telling you directly.”
He Chengjian sneered and said, “It’s probably because Lieutenant General Jin is very likable… General Ning, I think it’s necessary to investigate Lieutenant General Jin’s social connections.”
“I, I, I… I didn’t do anything wrong!” General Jin was a little flustered. “That female reporter called me herself! As for why she called me, how would I know?! You guys go ask her!”
As he said that, he reported the female reporter’s name and number.
He Zhichu originally thought that General Jin had a lot to do with this matter, but when he saw that he immediately revealed the female reporter’s number and name, he was a little confused.
WAS it really just a coincidence?
Was it that Lieutenant General Jin despised him, or was it because he didn’t like the He family and was deliberately making things difficult for them?
He Zhichu was unable to come to any conclusion at this time.
He took down the female reporter’s name and phone number Lieutenant General Jin had mentioned and said, “If the military summons this female reporter, I hope Lieutenant General Jin will appear in court to testify.”
“Definitely, definitely…” Lieutenant General Jin wiped the sweat off his forehead and lowered his eyes to hide the hint of joy in his eyes.
Prime Minister Xie Beichen was very shocked. He did not expect that this matter was related to Xie Qingying.
Moreover, he knew that Xie Qingying clearly had a good impression of He Zhichu. Why would she do such a thing?
However, Lieutenant General Jin had vowed that this matter had something to do with Xie Qingying’s employees. Xie Beichen couldn’t refute him at the moment. He only wanted to personally ask Xie Qingying what was going on after the meeting ended.
After He Zhichu’s questioning ended, General Ning and He Chengjian discussed for a while and said, “The Qin family has requested for Qin Yaoguang to go to the hospital to perform surgery on Old Masyer Qin. The military has already agreed.”
He Zhichu immediately said, “I want to personally escort Qin Yaoguang to the hospital. Moreover, I want the hospital where Old Master Qin performs surgery to be transferred to the military hospital.”
General Ning shook his head in a somewhat awkward manner and said, “We have already promised the Qin family to let Qin Yaoguang go to the Qin family’s own hospital to perform the surgery.”
He Chengjian also said amiably, “Major General He, in view of Old Master Qin’s serious injuries, it’s better to perform the surgery in their own hospital.”
If they moved him to the military hospital, in the event of a mishap, some things would be hard to explain. When that happened, the public would also be very unpleasant.
He Zhichu knew their concerns, but he didn’t care.
However, he couldn’t oppose the decision of his superior.
Even his father supported this decision, so he had nothing to say.
“Then I will be responsible for escorting Qin Yaoguang.” He Zhichu made the final decision.
“Okay, I agree.” General Ning nodded. “Immediately go to the detention center and escort Qin Yaoguang to the Qin Corporation’s Private Hospital’s headquarters. Remember to bring her back intact.”
“Yes, Chief.” He Zhichu stood at attention and saluted. Then, he accepted the mission and left.
..
Xie Beichen didn’t bother to look at the data analysis of the bomb scene. After the meeting, he left in a hurry.
When he returned to the Prime Minister’s residence, the first thing he did was to call Xie Qingying.
Xie Qingying’s father, Xie Dezhao, was only a member of a branch of the Xie family. However, when Xie Qingying returned from studying media and communication overseas, then took the initiative to help Xie Beichen run for the election, she became a great contributor to his campaign team. Therefore, the two families were very close.
He knew that Xie Qingying was a very clear-headed person, so he didn’t understand why she would do this.
At this moment, Xie Qingying was editing the news footage from her company that day, especially the footage of the fire in the building. She looked for many angles, trying to present the situation in all aspects.
When she received Xie Beichen’s call, Xie Qingying was very surprised.
“Uncle, is there something you need me for?”
After Xie Beichen became the prime minister, Xie Qingying retired. She didn’t enter the cabinet and instead started a new media company. Her business was doing well. Of course, with Xie Beichen backing her, her business path was smoother than others.
Xie Beichen frowned and said, “Come to the Prime Minister’s residence. I have something to ask you.”
Xie Qingying was stunned. She knew something must have happened.
She immediately packed her things and left hurriedly with her Louis Vuitton briefcase.
When she arrived at Xie Beichen’s prime minister’s residence, Xie Qingying was immediately led to Xie Beichen’s study room.
“Uncle, what happened?” Xie Qingying sat down in front of Xie Beichen.
Xie Beichen said seriously, “I went to the military for a meeting today. I heard from a person that there was a female reporter in your company who complained about He Zhichu to the military.”
“What?!” Xie Qingying stood up in shock. “Didn’t you hear wrong?! Why would a female reporter in my company complain about Young Master He?! Who is she?!”
Seeing that Xie Qingying didn’t know anything, Xie Beichen breathed a sigh of relief. He waved his hand and said with a smile, “Don’t worry, don’t worry. Sit down and talk.”
“How can I not worry?!” Xie Qingying placed her hands on the table and leaned forward. She said anxiously, “Does Young Master He know? What will he think?! But I really don’t know about this! Please believe me!”
“Of course I believe you.” Xie Beichen patted the back of her hand. “Sit down quickly. It’s not a big deal. It’s fine as long as you didn’t do it. Go back and ask this female reporter about it. We’ll see what’s going on. The military will summon her.”
Xie Qingying suppressed the anger in her heart and slowly sat down. She said, “What did she complain about?”
“She said that He Zhichu used a fighter jet to save his ex-fiancée. He used his power for personal reasons, and used public tools for personal use.”
Xie Qingying couldn’t help rolling her eyes. “Gu Nianzhi was also a victim. Under those circumstances, he had to use his helicopter and fighter jet to save her. Even if Gu Nianzhi wasn’t there at the time, he had no choice but to save her.”
“You’re not jealous at all?” Xie Beichen said with a smile. He took a sip of water from his teacup. “He did go to save her…”
“People’s lives are at stake. He went to save her. Gu Nianzhi just happened to be one of the people he saved.” Xie Qingying shrugged, “And even if he went to save Gu Nianzhi because she was in danger, it shows that he’s a person of honor and righteousness, that he won’t let his personal feelings get in the way and leave her to die just because she rejected him.”
“Hahahaha, I finally understand what it means to be in love. So in your eyes, there’s nothing wrong with He Zhichu and everything he does is right!” Xie Beichen’s shoulders shook as he laughed.
Xie Qingying’s face flushed because of his laughter. “Uncle! Why laugh at me like that?! I’m telling the truth!”
“I know, I know.” Xie Beichen knocked on the table and stopped laughing. He pointed at her and said, “From now on, you can’t act alone. Even if you want to meet that female employee of yours, you have to be accompanied by at least two people. Do you understand?”
“Huh? Why?” Xie Qingying asked in confusion. “I still want to talk to her alone.”
“If that person isn’t lying, then this female employee of yours is clearly framing you. I’m worried that if you come into contact with her alone, she will play some dirty tricks and frame you.”
Xie Beichen explained very carefully.
Only then did Xie Qingying understand. Her face immediately turned livid. “I will hold a meeting throughout the company and directly question her at the meeting!”
“Okay!” Xie Beichen gave her a thumbs up. “This method is even better than mine.”
As long as Xie Qingying had a clear conscience, Xie Beichen hoped that the more people who knew about this matter, the better.
Xie Qingying left the prime minister’s residence and returned to the company quietly.
She looked at the employees who came to work today and found that the female reporter happened to be in the company today. She immediately called everyone to the meeting room and said that she had an important announcement to make.
When everyone heard that, they all ran to the meeting room enthusiastically.
Because it was a new media company, most of the staff were young people.
Xie Qingying walked in and saw that the female reporter was talking to someone proudly. Seeing her laugh so hard, she couldn’t help but feel sick to her stomach.
She walked to the stage and directly called out the female reporter’s name, then asked alooly, “I heard that you told someone in the military that Young Master He used his power for personal reasons and used a fighter jet to save his ex-fiancée. You even said that Young Master He went back on his promise to go to the ballet with me because of that? I don’t remember telling you that I’m going to the ballet with Young Master He.”
The female reporter almost fainted.
She never expected that Lieutenant General Jin in the military would be so unreliable that he would sell her out!
