“You’re still the most thoughtful. Lang Nan did deserve to die, but the others are innocent after all.”
Just as Zhou Xuan finished speaking, the television switched to what the bodyguard had said during the interview. “The brothers behind Deputy Governor Lang will not let you off.”
The scene in front of him attracted Zhou Xuan’s attention again, and his eyes narrowed unconsciously.
“Lang Nan’s people are too bold. Now, they even dare to threaten you in front of the entire country. They don’t care about the laws of the Federation’s Central City. How can this be?”
Zhou Xuan was very angry at the bodyguard’s words. Touching Shan Yue in front of him was the same as touching her brother in front of Shan Yue. The outcome could not escape one word: death.
“It’s fine. This is the outcome I want. I want to take this opportunity to wipe out Lang Nan’s forces in the Federation’s Central City in one fell swoop and eliminate them all to avoid future trouble.”
There was no fluctuation in Shan Yue’s eyes. “It’s best if everyone comes. That will save me more trouble.”
“How can that do? Even if it’s to take them down in one fell swoop, you can’t take such an extreme approach. This is equivalent to using yourself as bait to lure those who are tempted.” Zhou Xuan shook his head firmly, his tone very serious. No matter what, he would not let Shan Yue take the risk. “If anything unpredictable happens, it will be too late to regret.”
“You don’t have to worry. I’m not stupid enough to deal with dozens of bodyguards around Lang Nan alone. Wouldn’t that be making things difficult for me?”
Shan Yue raised her slightly confident red lips, as if everything that happened next was under her control. “In just a short period of time, such a big thing happened in the Federation’s Central City. The press conference is enough to make Lang Nan lose his title. At the same time, it is also a wake-up call for the people in other official positions. At this critical moment, no one will bump into the gun again.”
“That’s why someone will definitely protect your life and suppress the pressure of public opinion since Lang Nan’s bodyguards publicized that they wanted to attack you during the live-stream.” Zhou Xuan went along with her words.
“You’re right. The press conference was originally a showdown between me and Lang Nan. Lang Nan is dead, if I’m dead, people will definitely start to wonder if those high-ranking people in the Federation City have the ability to ensure the safety of the city.”
Shan Yue said calmly, “In order to continue protecting their positions, they will definitely not allow anything to happen to me.”
As she spoke, she took two steps forward and turned off the television, as if it had nothing to do with her. It could only be said that Shan Yue’s prediction was godlike and she guessed others’ thoughts very clearly.
As soon as she finished speaking, a group of people in police uniforms ran in.
Shan Yue roughly observed with her peripheral vision. All of them were armed. Although they had the trigger safety on, it was obvious that they were real guns.
That alone was enough to tell how serious the matter was.
After everyone was in position, a person with an armband two levels higher than these people walked in. He looked straight at Shan Yue and never stopped walking.
“Hello, President Shan. I’m the newly appointed police chief of the Federation’s Central City, Li Yong. This is the first time I’ve sat in my current position. If I do anything wrong in the future, please guide me.”
Li Yong was very respectful and did not have the airs of a leader at all. “I’m not the same kind of person as the previous Chief Wang, so you can rest assured.”
These words clearly revealed his intention to surrender to Shan Yue. Shan Yue’s status in the Federation’s Central City was not low to begin with, and there’s Zhou Xuan supporting her.
As long as the antidote for the virus was given to people, her reputation and support rate would definitely rise. At that time, she would definitely become a strong contender for the new governor.
Li Yong had seen through this, so he could use this opportunity to show his loyalty to Shan Yue and find a way out for his future self.
How could Shan Yue not hear such obvious words? However, she did not say it especially clearly in front of so many people..
