Qiu Tu is no longer a newcomer to officialdom.

After these few months, he has almost a basic understanding of some of the unspoken rules and slang of official circles.

There seems to be no problem with Yan Ai's words. After all, he is the director of the Investigation Agency, and Tang Feifei and Qiu Tu are both his subordinates.

So now that the two of them have made great contributions, his words of encouragement are very reasonable.

But if you look carefully, you will find the key point of this sentence: you have not betrayed the "trust" that "I" have placed in you.

This is actually a hint to the outside world that tonight's operation was authorized and arranged by Yan Ai.

Then most of the credit goes to Yan Ai.

After all, Yan Ai has leadership merits.

With just one simple sentence, most of Qiu Tu, Tang Feifei and Liu Xiongyuan's plan to trick Yan Ai was ruined.

When the time comes to report it to the shelter, the shelter will only attribute everything that happened tonight to the New Territories City Investigation Department, which is also the credit of Yan Ai's leadership.

I will no longer criticize Yan Ai for being promoted at a critical moment like Moonlight Lake.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu, who understood the deep meaning of Yan Ai's words, quickly shook his head towards Tang Feifei and signaled.

Qiu Tu could hear the meaning of taking credit in Yan Ai's words, how could Tang Feifei not hear it.

Seeing Qiu Tu's signal, she nodded slightly towards Qiu Tu, and then said with a cold face, "The director is joking."

"We suddenly encountered such a big accident, and we were very panicked tonight."

"We wanted to ask for your instructions immediately, but we remembered that you were in retreat and couldn't contact you at all."

"So when we were solving this matter, we forcibly took over the site without your consent. We also used the names of Director Liu, General Ye, and Colonel Wang to say that they authorized us to control the three major institutions!"

"Let all the troops of the three major agencies obey our command!"

"Here, Minister Qiu and I would like to apologize to the Director first."

"Emergency matters, some things we do may not comply with regulations. Tomorrow, we will personally write a written review and submit it to the director, and we will ask the director for approval at that time."

Tang Feifei's Tai Chi skills were also very beautiful. She first set the tone for everything tonight: emergencies.

Because it was an "emergency situation," there was no question of leadership arrangements or command.

Immediately afterwards, she started self-criticism in advance. She said that in order to save Moonlight Lake and capture the elite team of the RUF, she and Qiu Tu had made some actions that may not have been in compliance with the regulations, so they needed to conduct a review.

This serves two purposes.

First, proactively admitting your mistakes when you first make a meritorious service can effectively minimize the impact, and also avoid Yan Ai from using it to cause trouble later.

Second, writing this review is equivalent to once again confirming in writing that this incident was entirely the fault of Tang Feifei and Qiu Tu.

Yan Ai understood what Tang Feifei meant.

He is not a person who likes to face someone head-on. In addition, he forcibly stopped the promotion and his body has not fully recovered yet.

So he just remained silent for two seconds, and then said in his unique low, hoarse voice, "It's understandable that the situation is urgent."

"No one expected this unexpected situation tonight. It is understandable that some of the department's advance arrangements were flawed."

"You are able to adapt to changes, handle things flexibly, and help the department check for deficiencies. You have done a great job."

"For the next thing, I will arrange for Director Lai to take over and negotiate with the military and Dongcheng City. I will also personally discuss the issue of the share of Moonlight Lake."

"You have worked hard tonight. Come back early and rest."

After explaining his arrangements in a low voice, Yan Ai hung up the communication without waiting for Tang Feifei's reaction.

After hearing Yan Ai's last words, Tang Feifei's face turned cold as if it could freeze.

Although Yan Ai gave up his "leadership merits", he still played a trick of "internal problems".

To put it bluntly, he cut himself off from this mistake and made Lin Ting and Tang Feifei become antagonists.

The mistake was made by Lin Ting, and the credit belongs to Tang Feifei, but regardless of the credit or the mistake, they are internal issues within the department and cannot be listed separately.

This is righteous and high-sounding.

In addition, Yan Ai is the director and has the final say. Therefore, Tang Feifei has no way to refute.

Otherwise there will be no unity and it will be ugly up there.

Therefore, after hanging up the phone, Tang Feifei's face was as cold as ice and she said nothing.

Qiu Tu stood beside her, silently enjoying the confrontation between the two bosses, feeling that he had benefited a lot.

Yan Ai is indeed Yan Ai. Just one phone call solved the crisis.

Fortunately, I still had a backup plan.

Thinking like this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but look up at the dark sky.

On the sky, the bright "North Star" has disappeared, obviously representing Yan Ai who failed to advance.

If you look at it this way, the dim star is obviously La Riluo.

The reason why the two people's "starlights" have different brightness is not because Yan Ai is stronger than La Riluo.

It's because of the world we live in.

La Riluo's real body is in the boundless sea of ​​​​mind, separated from the real world by a world barrier, so of course it will be dimmer; but Yan Ai is in the real world, so it will be bright.

At this time, the dim star was still shining, and the retrograde meteor that had just rushed into the sky was converging with it.

‘La Riluo’

Qiu Tu muttered something softly, and then lowered his head.

at the same time

Garden villa in the city, study room.

"Bang!" A crisp sound!

Yan Ai slammed the crystal ashtray onto Ji Chen's head!

"waste!"

Yan Ai's eyes were red, like a furious lion!

He glared at Ji Chen angrily, his eyes filled with a chill that penetrated people!

At this time, he seemed to have completely changed. He was no longer as calm and reserved as before.

Ji Chen was hit so hard that he staggered, and his head immediately became swollen.

But Ji Chen didn't dare to rub or touch him. He quickly controlled his dizzy body and tried his best to lower his head and stand straight in front of Yan Ai without saying a word.

Because he knows that Yan Ai is really capable of killing people now!

"Huchi. Huchi"

Yan Ai took a few deep breaths, glared at him fiercely, and then sat down heavily on the mahogany chair.

After that, he picked up the landline phone on the table, dialed a few numbers, and quickly made several arrangements.

These include, but are not limited to, asking Deputy Director of Operations Lai Shun to take over the Secret Service Department outside Moonlight Forest; asking Deputy Director of the Political Department Cai Peiyuan to take over the captured RUF cronies; appeasing Lin Ting; and beating up Yu Zhengyi and Shi Youxin.

After a few phone calls, the anger in Yan Ai's heart seemed to have gradually dissipated a lot.

He sat back in the darkness, and the light shone in front of him, illuminating a small circle of desks.

He closed his eyes, as if he was sorting out the troubles that Tang Feifei and Qiu Tu had caused in the investigation agency in the past few days, and thinking about how to get everything back on track.

Just like that, after thinking for ten minutes, Yan Ai slowly said, "Ji Chen, do you know why I am angry with you?"

Ji Chen had a big bump on his forehead, lowered his head, and then whispered, "I know. I didn't do what the director told me to do."

"We didn't protect Counselor Wu, we didn't arrest Qiu Tu, and we allowed Director Tang and others to take control of the Investigation Department."

Yan Ai let out a loud "hum" from his nose.

Then he drooped his eyelids and said with a disappointed look, "Not only did you fail to do this, you even forgot everything I told you."

He said, "Have I ever told you that Lai Shun is brainless and Yu Zhengyi is slippery."

"Once I'm not around, I'll have to keep an eye on Yu Zhengyi. As long as Tang Feifei uses force to force her, he will probably just sit back and watch."

"And Lai Shun alone cannot defeat Tang Feifei."

"So, as long as I'm not here and Yu Zhengyi has a tendency to be naughty, I will immediately put Yu Zhengyi up and make him the acting director!"

"Once he occupies the position, he won't be able to be cunning. In other words, even if he is cunning, he can only drag Tang Feifei with him."

"And as long as I hold Tang Feifei behind, it will create time for me, which will be beneficial to us!"

At the end of the message, Yan Ai's voice was full of suppressed anger again, "It will not be like now, letting Tang Feifei steal the position, letting that old cunning guy turn a blind eye and let Tang Feifei do whatever he wants!

"

Ji Chen quickly apologized, "It's the director. It's my fault for not being timely."

He also wanted to argue, "The main reason is that Counselor Wu's death was too sudden, and Director Tang's 'coup' was too sudden."

"Before I even had time to convey your message, she directly instigated director Yu to rebel. Then she suspended me from my post, kicked me out of the Investigation Agency, held a high-level meeting, and established her position as acting director.
