"Everyone, stop!"
A calm yet commanding voice rang out, instantly bringing everyone to a halt.
Everyone turned toward the voice and saw a slightly balding middle-aged man in a Tang suit approaching, his face full of arrogance.
Pang Xiao narrowed his eyes and immediately recognized him. "Well, if it isn't Chief Tang! You're finally here. You have to stand up for me today."
The man addressed as Chief Tang held his nose in the air, looking down on everyone. One glance was enough to tell he was no good.
Seeing Pang Xiao, Chief Tang replied coldly, "Oh, President Pang. I was wondering who it was. The Dihao Group invited me here today to maintain order. The banquet is about to start. What are you all doing?"
Chief Tang was Tang Hualong, the current chief of the Public Security Bureau in Zhonghai City's Songjiang District.
Although Pang Xiao headed one of the Four Major Conglomerates, even the richest men feared officials. No matter how unhappy he felt, he still had to show Tang Hualong some deference.
He put on an aggrieved expression and said, "Chief Tang, don't misunderstand. We aren't causing trouble. Someone else is."
As he spoke, Pang Xiao directed his gaze toward Chen Hao.
Tang Hualong glanced at Chen Hao. Not recognizing him, he couldn't even be bothered to address him and casually asked Pang Xiao, "What exactly happened?"
Pang Xiao then gave an embellished account of what Chen Hao had done, occasionally having Pang Jiawei step forward to play the victim.
If he could use Tang Hualong to deal with Chen Hao today, that would be ideal. It would also save him the trouble of cleaning up Pang Jiawei's mess himself.
Standing nearby, Chen Hao almost laughed as he listened to Pang Xiao rant, spittle flying.
No wonder
