Official Career Storm
Chapter 328

Chapter 328: Chapter 328

He had barely rolled over when Song Guanchao lifted his foot and stepped on his shoulder, pinning him in place.

"Young Master Tian, my apologies, I didn’t aim properly and hit you off target."

"Give me another chance, I believe me, this time I definitely won’t miss."

Song Guanchao held the baseball bat, gently tapping the back of his head with the tip of the bat, then slowly lifted it up a bit before letting it fall down slowly.

This action looked like he was aiming and preparing to smash his head.

A group of ruffians all watched in dumbfounded silence.

Where did this brash young man come from?

To say they would fight, and then really to start swinging!

That hit just now had not held back even a little bit of strength.

They all heard the sound of bones breaking.

Lu Xiaotian’s half shoulder must be broken.

At Song Guanchao’s words, Lu Xiaotian’s swearing came to an abrupt halt.

He struggled to turn his head and saw Song Guanchao’s aiming motion, his soul almost leaving his body.

He tried hard to twist his body to escape from under Song Guanchao’s foot, but Song Guanchao’s leg was as heavy as a thousand jun, as if it was trapped under a mountain.

"What the hell are you all standing around for? Get him, kill him, just kill him!"

Lu Xiaotian, indeed a man of the underworld, didn’t even plead for mercy in such a situation.

"Grab this bitch, seize her! If I don’t die today, I will definitely kill you all!"

Listening to his words, Song Guanchao was somewhat surprised; this bastard was actually quite tough.

Was he betting that I wouldn’t dare to make a deadly move?

"Clang!"

Song Guanchao knocked on the ground with the bat, silencing those who were about to charge over.

He initially intended to use Lu Xiaotian to control the crowd, but now, they weren’t subdued.

So he had to change his tactics.

"Young Master Tian, do you know who I am?"

"I don’t give a damn who you are, you dare to hit me, you’re finished, I’m telling you! Either you kill me today, or I’ll kill you!"

He was angry to the extreme.

He had never suffered such a loss in his entire life.

"Kill me?" Song Guanchao chuckled, "Secretary of the City Committee, you dare to kill? Young Master Tian, you really do have guts!"

Secretary of the Municipal Committee?

Lu Xiaotian was taken aback, "You’re the Secretary of the City Committee?"

Song Guanchao spoke up, "Allow me to introduce myself: I am Song Guanchao, Secretary to Secretary Wu of the City Committee."

Liu Lanzi saw him revealing his identity and knew that he was trying to use his status to extricate himself.

Liu Lanzi said, "Young Master Tian really thinks that I came alone, with no precautions?"

Lu Xiaotian originally had his doubts, but then felt that the other party didn’t seem to be lying.

He shouted to the crowd, "Scar, call Uncle Hou, tell him I’ve been hit by Secretary Song of the City Committee! Let him bring the police over! And call the TV station as well! Damn Song Guanchao, you dare to hit me, if I don’t take you down a notch, my name isn’t Lu Xiaotian!"

A tall and burly man immediately took out his phone to make a call.

Song Guanchao was shocked; was this Young Master Tian so overbearing?

My status as the Secretary of the Municipal Committee was of no use?

But he wasn’t panicked.

If County Magistrate Hou could really come over, that would be ideal.

Lu Xiaotian was a fool, but County Magistrate Hou was definitely not.

Today’s incident, Liu Lanzi had evidence.

Moreover, the entire conversation in between had been recorded by Song Guanchao.

In other words, the beating Lu Xiaotian received was for nothing.

...

County Magistrate Hou had already gone to sleep.

After receiving the call, he immediately sat up in bed.

He realized that something significant had happened.

This Lu Xiaotian was becoming more lawless by the day!

He had told him to stay calm and avoid trouble.

Instead, he had stirred up trouble again!

And he had provoked the Secretary of the City Committee!

He thought for a moment, then dialed Tu Zhaorui’s number.

"Secretary Tu, I hope I’m not disturbing you?"

"What’s the matter, County Magistrate Hou?"

Receiving a call from County Magistrate Hou so late at night came as a surprise to Tu Zhaorui.

"It’s like this, there has been a bit of an issue with Lu Xiaotian..."

He meticulously explained the situation.

After listening, Tu Zhaorui’s tone remained even, "Where is he?"

"Huangni Village."

"Alright, I understand. You should get some rest early, County Magistrate Hou."

Get some rest early...

County Magistrate Hou looked at his hung-up phone, his brows tightly knitted.

With this kind of incident, how could he possibly sleep?

But with Secretary Tu saying that, the message was clear: do not meddle in affairs that weren’t his concern.

After much hesitation, he decided to wait and see.

He called Scar back, instructing them to not stir up trouble for the time being and to report immediately if anything came up.

Huangni Village.

In the courtyard.

Liu Lanzi and Yang Yongcai sat down, and Song Guanchao carried a baseball bat, waiting quietly.

Scar had finished the phone call, but County Magistrate Hou had told them not to cause any trouble.

Obviously, he couldn’t just say that outright; where would that leave Young Master Tian’s face?

"Young Master Tian, County Magistrate Hou is aware."

Lu Xiaotian, thinking County Magistrate Hou would come at once, sneered, "This is Dujiang County, not your Lingjiang City! Song Guanchao, prepare to be stripped of your position!"

"Heh." Song Guanchao didn’t bother to argue with such trash.

About half an hour later, the sound of a car approaching could be heard.

Ten seconds after, footsteps neared the courtyard gate, and a man’s deep voice followed: "Open the door."

A lackey pulled open the gate.

Two men in casual clothes stood outside.

Both men wore masks and hats, making them unrecognizable.

The older-looking man slowly surveyed the courtyard and finally fixed his gaze on Song Guanchao.

"Uncle Hou!" Lu Xiaotian shouted loudly.

The man walked over, and people immediately cleared a path for him.

He glanced at Liu Lanzi, then took another look at Song Guanchao, said nothing, and walked toward the living room.

Song Guanchao understood the man’s gaze and lifted his foot to follow him.

Lu Xiaotian, regaining his freedom, immediately struggled up from the ground, one arm completely immobile.

A lackey helped him to sit down.

He glared at Liu Lanzi ferociously, "You stinking woman, just wait and see what I’m capable of!"

Liu Lanzi felt very uneasy.

Lu Xiaotian was excessively arrogant, abnormally so!

Normally, when the second-in-command of the county intervenes, she should be safe.

But now, with County Magistrate Hou coming in person, he was still not holding back, acting as if he had nothing to fear.

As if even with County Magistrate Hou present, nothing would change.

She looked toward the living room where Song Guanchao and County Magistrate Hou sat face to face, their conversation unknown.

In the living room.

Song Guanchao looked at the man before him and said, "I’m surprised, I thought County Magistrate Hou would be coming, but to think Secretary Tu would personally make the trip."

Yes, the man before him wasn’t County Magistrate Hou, but Secretary Tu!

Song Guanchao remembered his eyes and recognized him immediately.

Secretary Tu asked, "Secretary Song, why didn’t you mention that you were visiting today?"

Song Guanchao replied, "Heh, I thought it was just a minor issue; I didn’t expect it to escalate to this point."

Secretary Tu stated, "Indeed, it’s a minor issue, a business dispute, unavoidable. But now that I am aware, the issue will be resolved properly."

"Properly resolved?" Song Guanchao smiled, "How so? Secretary Tu, could you give me a standard?"

Secretary Tu replied, "There won’t be similar issues on Chairman Liu’s construction site, that much I can assure."

Song Guanchao glanced toward the outside at Lu Xiaotian, then suddenly changed tack, "Does Secretary Tu know that County Magistrate Hou has been deceiving his superiors and concealing the truth?"
