"It's not that your words don't carry weight, but rather..."
On the other end of the line.
Shao Huai'an hadn't finished his sentence.
Another voice piped up.
"Minister Li, it's not that I want to arrest Manager Pang, but he turned himself in voluntarily, so... simply releasing him might not be appropriate..."
Hearing this sentence.
Li Xuan was stunned.
The voice on the other end of the line belonged to Chen Fang.
She could certainly recognize it.
Thinking of her forceful stance towards Shao Huai'an earlier.
She immediately changed her tone, saying, "Oh, it's Secretary Chen. You know how it is in official circles, all about relationships and favors. His family contacted me, and I thought it wasn't a big deal. Since Secretary Chen is personally handling the case, however it should be handled, it should be handled."
"Alright, with Minister Li's assurance, I'm relieved."
Chen Fang replied with a smile.
He hung up the phone.
Li Xuan's mind began to swirl in confusion.
