Chapter 281 Director Zhou Arrives

After speaking, Wu Tian added, "Didn't you want to resolve this matter through the public security system?"

"Alright, no problem. Once Director Zhou arrives, won't everything be resolved?"

Zhou Mingxue's gaze grew increasingly surprised.

He had initially thought that as long as he called the police, no matter how capable Wu Tian was, the matter could be settled.

But he hadn't expected Wu Tian to be so extraordinary, capable of summoning the esteemed Director Zhou himself.

He was momentarily speechless, his eyes gradually darkening.

For now, he could only take things one step at a time. If the situation got out of control, he would have to resort to his trump card.

With this thought, he retreated to the side, waiting for Zhou Mingxue to arrive.

About twenty minutes later, Zhou Mingxue drove into the village.

As soon as he got out of the car, he hurried over and asked Wu Tian, "Wu Tian, how are you? Are you alright?"

Wu Tian smiled and shook his head, saying, "Director Zhou, I'm fine. Thank you for your concern."

After confirming Wu Tian was unharmed, Zhou Mingxue turned to Yi Kaicheng and the others with a stern expression and asked, "What is the meaning of this?"

The policeman, naturally unwilling to get involved, quickly moved aside and did not respond to Zhou Mingxue's question.

Upon seeing Zhou Mingxue, Yi Kaicheng hesitated.

Then, he smiled and said, "Director Zhou, hello, hello. It's been a long time!"

Zhou Mingxue looked coldly at Yi Kaicheng and said, "Boss Yi, I understand the situation here. What you're doing doesn't seem quite right, does it?"

Yi Kaicheng continued to smile, "Director Zhou, who is this Wu Tian? You probably don't have any close relationship with him, do you?"

"We've shared meals and drinks before. You know my status, so perhaps you shouldn't interfere in this matter?"

"Don't worry, I've always been a man of discretion."

"I will definitely handle this matter properly and won't cause you any trouble, Director Zhou."

Zhou Mingxue snorted coldly and said, "Not interfere? You're probably thinking too simply!"

"You were in the wrong from the start. I haven't even sought trouble with you yet, and you dare to cause trouble for Wu Tian? You are truly audacious!"

Yi Kaicheng said with a grin, "Director Zhou, don't be so angry."

"As far as I know, Wu Tian is just a village doctor. There's no need for you to act like this for a mere village doctor."

"Don't worry, I understand the rules. If you don't interfere today, I will definitely visit you tomorrow to express my gratitude. What do you think?"

As he spoke, Yi Kaicheng's eyes flickered slightly, clearly hinting that he would offer Zhou Mingxue significant benefits.

However, Zhou Mingxue remained unmoved by such behavior and sternly rebuked, "Yi Kaicheng! You are too bold!"

"What do you mean? Are you openly trying to bribe me!"

"Let me tell you, based on what you just said, this matter is far from over!"

"Moreover, Wu Tian is my elder brother. Would I stand by and let you disrespect my elder brother!"

"B-Brother!" Zhou Mingxue's angry outburst startled Yi Kaicheng considerably.

Wu Tian is Zhou Mingxue's elder brother? How could that be!

Regardless of age or status, Wu Tian was far below Zhou Mingxue. How could he be Zhou Mingxue's elder brother?

He couldn't help but say, "Director Zhou, are you joking? Even if you want to help him, isn't this reason too far-fetched?"

His tone was filled with doubt, clearly showing his disbelief.

In response, Zhou Mingxue merely glanced at him indifferently and said, "What do you mean by that? If Wu Tian is my elder brother, then he is my elder brother. Do you think I would lie to you?"

Yi Kaicheng's gaze became even more shocked.

He knew that Zhou Mingxue would not make such a joke in public, as it would not lead to anything good.

But since Zhou Mingxue had admitted it twice, it was clear that what Zhou Mingxue said was true!

He mechanically turned his head to look at Wu Tian, and the more he looked, the more he felt that Wu Tian was a man of hidden depths.

This young man possessed a strength that ordinary people could not possess, and he also had such a relationship with Zhou Mingxue. This was definitely not someone to be trifled with.

Under normal circumstances, faced with someone like Wu Tian, he would have stopped in time and not provoked him further.

But this situation was different. This time, he wanted to secure the investment from Tianbao Group.

Tianbao Group's investment was substantial!

Companies that received their investment would generally take off, with their annual income at least tripling or quadrupling.

Currently, many groups in the county were eyeing this lucrative opportunity.

If he didn't act quickly, the investment would surely be snatched by someone else.

Moreover, he had Secretary Xu supporting him from behind, which made him feel much more resolute.

He looked at Zhou Mingxue, took a deep breath, and said, "Director Zhou, even if this person is your elder brother, I'm sorry, but please forgive my bluntness. No matter what, I will not back down."

Zhou Mingxue's brows furrowed immediately.

He hadn't expected Yi Kaicheng to be so audacious, daring to defy him.

He stared at Yi Kaicheng and said, "Yi Kaicheng, I advise you to act wisely and not go too far."

"I've already told you that your unauthorized construction of a factory in Taohua Village is already an illegal act!"

"I haven't even settled this matter with you yet, and you dare to oppose me?"

Facing Zhou Mingxue's gaze, Yi Kaicheng felt a sense of pressure.

He knew that as a private entrepreneur, offending Zhou Mingxue would definitely have dire consequences.

But even so, he gritted his teeth and said, "Director Zhou, this is not my personal matter. I cannot make the decision."

"Since you insist on interfering today, then fine. I will call Secretary Xu over now and ask him to see how this matter should be handled!"

"Secretary Xu?" Zhou Mingxue was slightly taken aback, and his expression turned even more somber.

"What do you mean by that? Are you trying to pressure me with Secretary Xu?"

"If you think I'll be intimidated by that, then you're underestimating me as the County Public Security Bureau Director!"

"Let me tell you, even if you call Secretary Xu here today, I won't let this matter go."

Yi Kaicheng said, "Is that so? Then I apologize. In fact, Secretary Xu is resting not far away, precisely to prevent any unexpected situations."

"Since Director Zhou has said so, I will call Secretary Xu over."
