"This." Zhou Qiang stammered. He could shout in front of the common people, but in front of higher-ups, he didn't dare speak.
"Zhou Qiang, would you like to repeat the events?"
This was another chance for him, but Zhou Qiang, having lived this long, was always pampered. He certainly wouldn't seize the opportunity.
"Leader, everything I said is true."
"Then I won't ask further. Your testimony won't be accepted."
"Leader, I'm an employee; they're just peasants. Why would you choose to side with them? You should believe me."
Li Yunqiao stood up, "Comrade Zhou, is this how you serve as a public servant of the nation? What qualifies you to serve the people when you belittle the common folk?"
That was harsh. Li Yunqiao meant that no matter how powerful his family was, he couldn't survive here.
Zhou Qiang also realized he misspoke. But he had been pampered, unable to reflect properly. He didn't know how to counter, just standing there stubbornly.
