Wang Defa had chosen those few sentences carefully.
First, he had mentioned Qin Siyang's good relationship with the Zhao Family, making it clear that he had no intention of driving a wedge between them. Then he had said that someone in the Zhao Family might have caused problems while carrying out the work, damaging relations between the two sides.
As the saying went, an outsider should not come between those who were close. Wang Defa's relationship with Qin Siyang certainly wasn't as close as Zhao Longfei's or Zhao Sifang's.
That was why he had been particularly cautious with his wording.
He hoped Qin Siyang would catch his unspoken meaning.
Qin Siyang naturally sensed the problem. "Someone in the Zhao Family is making trouble?"
Wang Defa hurried to explain, "No, no, it's nothing that threatens our Qin Character Special Brigade. It's really just a minor issue."
Qin Siyang frowned. "A Fa, why are you talking like a Paper Tiger? You won't let anything out unless I squeeze you?"
Wang Defa looked troubled. "Brigade Commander, the main thing is..."
"What about the Zhao Family? Business is business, and personal matters are personal matters. My closeness with members of the Zhao Family is my own affair. Our Qin Character Special Brigade involves thousands of people, not just me! If I were going to put my relationship with the Zhao Family first, I might as well have appointed their people as regiment commanders. Why would I have brought the four of you in?!"
Qin Siyang slapped the table. "In everything you four do, you must ensure absolute unity throughout the brigade. No mistakes will be tolerated! Understood?!"
"Understood!"
The four men immediately stood at attention and answered in unison.
With Qin Siyang's instructions, Wang Defa felt more confident about reporting the Zhao Family's misconduct.
