Chapter 452: Choose Sides
t go…… Yanyan's back of her hand was grasped by Ye Fan, and a blush immediately appeared on her face. She desperately tried to pull her hand out, but Ye Fan held it tightly, still rubbing it lightly a...The next moment, the two looked at each other without a word, both seeing doubt in each other's eyes, more so, fear!
“I've turned on the hands-free now, he can hear you. Please use the website.” Ye Fan said nonchalantly, “Li Secretary, Director Si as the director of the Public Security Bureau, a servant of the people, I, a humble citizen, cannot command him.”
Ye Fan's words sounded casual, but Si Chantao's body trembled violently! Just moments ago, he had made up his mind to take sides, but now a phone call completely shattered his thoughts.
Although Li Secretary didn't understand what happened, he knew that if it were an ordinary matter, Ye Fan wouldn't call him. Moreover, in this storm, the kid displayed his skills with cunning and decisiveness. With a few arrangements, he simultaneously struck the political, business, and underworld circles with thunderous force, changing the long-maintained peaceful situation. And many more officials are still under investigation because of this kid, perhaps they will never get out for the rest of their lives
He certainly didn't want Ye Fan to continue making a scene. After all, the term was about to change soon, and maintaining stability was paramount right now; stability trumped everything else. But judging by his tone, he seemed to be angry, as if he were about to unleash a storm. This would inevitably draw more people into the fray.
Even Li Shugi wouldn't want to see such a thing happen. So, he felt it was necessary to stop this from escalating immediately.
Having made up his mind, he adjusted his state of being and said in a deep voice, "Si Chantao, I'll give you three seconds to calm down. Otherwise, get out of here in your uniform."
In his eyes, Si Cantuo was just a police officer. But Ye Fan was different. He was not only a member of the Ye family, but he had also served in Longya, China's most mysterious organization. Li Shujing believed that if Ye Fan wanted to, those policemen under Si Cantuo's command wouldn't be able to hold him at all.
Hello!
His whole body trembling, Si Cantiao stiffened upon hearing Li's words. His throat went dry and he swallowed hard.
Then, as if summoned, his slightly plump body surged toward Ye Fan at a terrifying speed.
At this moment, his reflexes were pushed to the limit, as if proving that he was once an excellent police officer. But with the passage of time, the corruption of wealth and power, the expansion of authority, the once-excellent police officer disappeared without a trace, leaving only Chief Si, who spent more time pleasing his superiors than caring about the case.
Secretary Cai stared at the scene with a grim expression, but there was nothing he could do. Although Secretary Li was only speaking on the phone, everyone held their breath. Especially Wang Dong, and people like Lu Dawei and Lily, their faces showed a look of despair.
They suddenly realized that they seemed to have underestimated this Ye Fan. He didn't seem to be just Si Kong Yanran's nephew, that was all. If he were only Si Kong Yanran's nephew, why would Secretary Li personally call It was impossible, absolutely impossible.
At first, Wang Dong thought dealing with Ye Fan would be as easy as sweeping the floor. However, in less than a minute, eight people were lying on the ground before him. Later, even the big shots of the Nanlong Gang appeared and knelt before him begging for mercy. Even Huang Bureau Chief, Si Bureau Chief, and Cai Secretary arrived, but they didn't dare to speak out of turn either
One second, two seconds.
In just two short seconds, Si Chantao rushed out of the crowd and came to Ye Fan's front, snatched the phone away, with beads of sweat dripping down his forehead, gasping for breath: "Li... Secretary Li."
"Tell me, what's going on" Secretary Li's voice came through the phone, laced with an authoritative questioning tone that left no room for ambiguity.
"Yes, that's how it happened." Si Chantao's face turned pale, his body trembling as he recounted the events truthfully, not daring to conceal anything.
On the phone, Secretary Li's face was slightly angry as he said, "Alright, I know about this. I'll call Secretary Wang Hongwei now."
"Yes, yes." Si Cantiao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Since Li Shuji had directly called Wang Hongwei, this matter should probably end here today. But Si Cantiao couldn't figure out why Ye Fan was so close to Li Shuji.
"If you don't want this uniform ripped off, you and your people better not make any rash moves, understand" Secretary Li said faintly.
"Crystal clear!"
Si Chantao answered trembling, cold sweat trickling down his fleshy face, along his nearly invisible neck and into his clothes, like a chill running through him, sending shivers down his spine.
"Give the phone to Ye Fan."
"Yes, yes!"
Si Chantao's face was pale, his eyes fearful as he lifted his head and looked at Ye Fan, tremblingly handing his phone to Ye Fan.
Ye Fan didn't make things difficult for Si Chantao anymore. Instead, he took the phone and said with a calm face, "Secretary Li, can I go back now"
Lee, the secretary, let out a wry smile and said, "Wait a moment, I'll give Wang Hongwei a call."
"Alright." Ye Fan hung up the phone.
Seeing this scene, Si Cantao's body trembled again!
The tone in which Secretary Li and Ye Fan spoke earlier had already filled him with apprehension about Ye Fan's identity. Now, this small detail made him even more certain that Ye Fan was not an ordinary person. Coupled with Secretary Li's display of iron-fisted leadership during this storm, and the shadows of several prominent families in Beijing lurking behind it all... At this point, he seemed to understand something, his face drained of all color, his breath coming in heavy gasps!
Secretary Cai's face was ashen. Things had escalated to this point, it seemed Wang Dong's beating today had been for nothing, and some involved parties would likely continue to have trouble. Although today's events had nothing to do with Si Chantao, it now appeared that his political career had reached its peak.
Perhaps, in this reshuffle, the new head of the Public Security Bureau who just took over from Jiang Gang will be sidelined by internal methods within the system, or he may choose to retire early.
Seeing Huang Wei's complex expression, Ye Fan reached out and patted his shoulder, smiling slightly: "You only strictly executed Director Si's orders. You have nothing to do with this now."
Huang Wei was stunned by Ye Fan's words and froze on the spot. Cai, the secretary, and Si Chantao both changed color, especially Si Chantao, whose face turned pale and he trembled uncontrollably.
"Alright, take your people and leave." Ye Fan waved his hand directly at Huang Wei, saying: "I see that you're pretty skilled, but you lack the bloodiness a policeman should have. But this is normal in Huaxia as well. Go back."
Huang Wei looked at Ye Fan with a complicated expression, but his heart suddenly dawned: Ye Fan was not the kind of dude who did bad things because he had a background, otherwise, based on his attitude towards Ye Fan just now, Ye Fan would not have spoken to him like this, but would choose to retaliate!
And Ye Fan blurted out these words on the spot. Even if he continued to stand with Si Chantao's faction in the future, it would probably be impossible. Even more so, he knew that something was fishy about today's events.ie Xiong”Tei Xiong leads the Ninth Column to find trouble with the Night Force.
