Chapter 489.
Two steaming bowls of wontons were delivered into the conference room.
Cheng Mo had a bowl, She Aizhen had a bowl, large wontons with chestnut pork, purple cabbage, shrimp, a little bit of sesame oil drizzled on, and sprinkled with cilantro.
That tantalizing aroma instantly stimulated one’s taste buds appetite.
“Eat, this bowl of wontons counts as my treat for you, regardless of your family’s Captain Wu asking for money.” Cheng Mo sat down, picked up the spoon and ate.
Seeing She Aizhen not eating, Cheng Mo said, “Don’t look at it, Mrs. Wu, eat it, this is the famous Xiao Yang wontons, your favorite, it won’t taste good if it gets cold in a while.”
She Aizhen eyes flashed a trace of panic, even his favorite food “Xiao Yang wontons” investigation so detailed, what secrets he still do not know the other side.
“Mrs. Wu won’t eat it, is she afraid that I will poison it?” Cheng Mo stopped and looked at She Aizhen and said, “You don’t have to worry, I’m here, Captain Wu can know at any time, if you die, he will be reckless to storm the Jing’an Temple Constable’s Office, and at that time, it will just give you guys an excuse to expand the conflict, I’m not that stupid.”
She Aizhen was also hungry, tossing around for these few hours, she just wanted to go to Paragon to get her hair done, and she ended up making a mess like this.
This was not what she wanted either.
Picking up the spoon on the table, she also ate, she didn’t eat fast, unlike Cheng Mo who swallowed in big gulps.
After all, it is a rich girl, this innate temperament that has been developed since childhood.
Of course, Cheng Mo will only appreciate, this woman does have her superiority, otherwise, just by virtue of those things she did, actually can still good end, really damn is God does not open eyes.
Of course, women have a natural advantage, there are some things that can’t be said clearly, and can’t be said clearly.
After Cheng Mo finished eating, he also drank not a drop of the soup left, wasting food is shameful, especially now that many people do not have enough to eat.
As for She Aizhen, she ate seven or eight wontons and then put them down, not knowing if she couldn’t eat or didn’t want to eat anymore.
Cheng Mo pulled out a handkerchief and handed it over, “It’s unused.”
“Thanks.” She Aizhen gave Cheng Mo a surprised look, but still reached out and took it, wiping her mouth.
Cheng Mo waved his hand, signaling She Aizhen to return it to him.
“Mr. Xiao Cheng, I’ve used this handkerchief.”
“If Mrs. Wu can’t be misunderstood by Captain Wu, keep it, I don’t mind.” Cheng Mo laughed.
She Aizhen froze for a moment, and immediately released her hand from the handkerchief.
“Has Mrs. Wu considered it, the conditions that I have proposed are not difficult for you to accept, there are some things that we each take a step back, the sea is wide open, isn’t it?”
She Aizhen was silent.
It would be nice if we can really each take a step back, are you willing to write off your previous grudges with Wu Sibao? “If I promise to sign the settlement, will Mr. Xiao Cheng let me go immediately?” She Aizhen asked.
“Of course, I, Cheng Mo, have always been true to my word in the inspector’s office, if you don’t believe me, Mrs. Wu can inquire with anyone to see if I am lying.” Cheng Mo said.
“What if I don’t sign?”
“Early tomorrow morning, all the newspapers in the tenement will publish the news that Mrs. Wu has been arrested by the Patrol Office, the reason is that Mrs. Wu you intentionally broke the tenement regulations, refused to accept the inspection, and attempted to provoke a conflict between No. 76 and the Patrol Office ……”
She Aizhen sniffed and instantly changed her face, provoking a fight between 76 and the inspector’s office, she was not afraid, but if it was widely publicized, then the reputation would be outside.
She a woman, don’t look at what she did are some unseemly things, but the reputation is still quite important.
You see that Wang obviously became a traitor, his reputation has long been stigmatized, if any bad news is spread about him, do you see him in a hurry if he doesn’t care?
“Chief Cheng, isn’t there any room for a little d茅tente?”
“Didn’t I say, each take a step back, you admit your mistake, we pay out money, each get what they want, as for how you go back and say it, that’s your business, forced or not, or take the initiative to admit it, this I can’t care.” Cheng Mo said smilingly. “Aren’t you afraid that old Wu hates you?”
“Doesn’t your family’s Captain Wu hate me?”
“Fine, I’ll sign.” She Aizhen considered for a while, nodded her head and agreed with a clench of her teeth, she was not a person of No. 76, and recognizing her mistake would not implicate No. 76.
At most, she would lose face herself, and if she was locked up in the patrol room, she really didn’t know what methods Cheng Mo would use against her.
Don’t look at him now with a spring in his step, this man is by no means Mr. Nice Guy, a dog that bites doesn’t bark.
“That’s right well, things are settled, hello, I’m good, everyone is good.” Cheng Mo gave a slight nod and ordered someone to fetch a pen and paper.
Half an hour later.
Cheng Mo personally sent She Aizhen out of the Jing’an Temple Patrol Room.
At this time, Wu Sibao went back to No. 76 to see that Lin Shiqun hadn’t returned yet, and Lin Zhijiang led the team to confront the inspector’s office, and he was shocked to see that Cheng Mo personally sent She Aizhen out of the inspector’s office.
“Sister-in-law, are you alright?”
She Aizhen’s face blanched and she shook her head, “It’s fine.”
“Brigade Wu went to find Director Lin, I’ll send you back now, are you going back to 76 or home?” Lin Zhijiang asked.
“Go home.”
“Hey, I’ll arrange it.” Lin Zhijiang promised.
“Captain Lin, talk?” Cheng Mo hadn’t left yet and shouted at Lin Zhijiang.
“Little Mr. Cheng, I’ve heard a lot about you.”
“I’ve also heard of Captain Lin’s name, the Blue Clothes Society cadre under Director Lin’s command.” Cheng Mo laughed, directly pointing out Lin Zhijiang’s identity as a traitor to the military junta.
“A good bird chooses a tree, why should Chief Cheng be sarcastic about Lin?” Lin Zhijiang’s face changed slightly, his reaction was extremely fast.
“The conflict between the patrol room and Mrs. Wu was a misunderstanding, Mrs. Wu’s bodyguards refused to be inspected and surrendered their sidearms, violating the regulations of the tenant community in the first place, our patrolman was momentarily nervous, his hand shook and mistakenly pulled the trigger, causing an accidental injury, which then triggered a conflict, this fact is already very clear, and Mrs. Wu has personally confirmed it.”
Lin Zhijiang looked to She Aizhen, who gave a slight nod.
Lin Zhijiang frowned, knowing that something bad had happened, if She Aizhen had admitted that it was a misunderstanding, then if No. 76 wanted to blackmail the Bureau of Public Works once and for all, that would be basically impossible, not to mention that No. 76 had always resisted the rule of entering the Concession to inspect and hand over their guns.
But the agreement was signed in this way, want to abolish, need to find an excuse to make trouble, originally is an excellent excuse.
She Aizhen so admitted, afraid of being arrested by the patrol room caught the initiative.
It is estimated that She Aizhen also did not think of this layer, but the opposite side of this small Cheng always must have thought in advance, actually came to a kettle, first the responsibility for the conflict to sit.
This was difficult to do.
“Captain Lin, Mrs. Wu we released, you should also remove the people, don’t affect the traffic.” Cheng Mo continued, “Regarding the division of responsibility and compensation, how about we find a time tomorrow to talk about it.”
Lin Zhijiang didn’t know how to reply, the bitter master wasn’t there, and Lin Shiqun didn’t give him this power, he really wasn’t in a good position to make a decision.
“Captain Lin, why don’t you give Director Lin a call for instructions, I have plenty of time to wait.” Cheng Mo took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a drag.
“Wait a bit.”
