It certainly won't be that easy for either of them, but it is indeed quite challenging for Chen Xijiu.
Even so, his attitude toward Li Ze remained unclear.
"Ninth Brother, what do you think about doing this as the Governor of Hong Kong said?"
"There's no need for our two companies to fight each other. We're both companies with businesses that are thriving in the real estate sector, so why should we be at odds?"
As Li Ze spoke, he sat down next to Chen Xijiu.
His heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally calmed down a little. No one knew better than him what kind of impact Chen Xijiu's position would have on him.
"You do know when to advance and retreat, but since this has already happened, it certainly won't be resolved so easily. You should have known that."
Upon hearing this, Li Ze quickly expressed his opinion to Chen Xijiu as well.
In any case, the losses I caused to Chen Xijiu this time can be wiped clean.
It would be better to turn hostility into friendship.
"Don't worry, Ninth Brother. As long as you let me off this time, I will have my men sort out the real estate business as soon as possible and will definitely not cause you any trouble."
These words made Chen Xijiu laugh in anger.
Many of the effects of the real estate business have already taken place, and Chen Xijiu would never waste time on unnecessary things.
"You had Wang Wu deliberately cause these two to commit suicide by poison, and now your influence over the entire Hong Kong Island is so strong. You still have the nerve to try and get close to me here."
Chen Xijiu was determined to investigate this matter thoroughly and bring justice to the two deceased.
As the commissioner of the police station, he naturally couldn't turn a blind eye.
"It would be better to go and compensate them sooner rather than later. This matter is closely related to you. Just tell me where Wang Wu is now."
Li Ze gritted his teeth and glanced at the Governor of Hong Kong beside him with a complicated expression.
The Governor of Hong Kong frowned.
"Chen Xijiu won't even give me face? I've already said this matter should just be forgotten and there's no need to dwell on it. Why are you still thinking of investigating it further?"
Chen Xijiu turned to look at the Governor of Hong Kong, his expression unchanged.
The police have been cornered by the Independent Commission Against Corruption's investigation, and Chan Sai-kau doesn't want to let things settle like this.
“Governor, I was also thinking of the police department. The Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) is also closely monitoring the outcome of this case.”
“If I were to engage in any favoritism or corruption, it would become a handle for the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), and what kind of situation would the police station be in then?”
Chan Sai-kau deliberately brought up the matter of the police station and the Independent Commission Against Corruption, and sure enough, the Governor's face became increasingly grim.
"The Governor knew perfectly well that I was absolutely not deliberately making things difficult for him."
Li Ze never expected that Chen Xijiu would not give him any face at all.
The Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) is not something ordinary people can resist.
Moreover, if he were to encounter someone as upright and incorruptible as Lu Zhenglian, he would immediately investigate any matter that showed even the slightest sign of trouble.
"Chen Xijiu, you really don't give me any face at all. I've already agreed to make compensation, so you don't need to dwell on this anymore."
Li Ze was extremely anxious and spoke without thinking.
"Just say they fell from a height, and cover it up."
Chen Xijiu glanced at him indifferently and scoffed. He wouldn't do something like not valuing human life.

"So this is how you used to handle cases. It's truly an eye-opener for me."
Chen Xijiu wore a hint of mockery on his face, and the Governor of Hong Kong glared fiercely at Li Ze.
"Don't listen to his nonsense. Some things need to be investigated thoroughly to give Hong Kong Ming justice. Since you've made your decision, then do as you say."
Chen Xijiu smiled faintly and turned to leave.
When Elena saw Chen Xijiu off at the door, she was filled with worry. She could tell that the Governor was in a bad mood today, and she was afraid that Chen Xijiu would be implicated because of it.
"Can we find Wang Wu? If we can't, your company will have to bear all the responsibility."
Chen Xijiu pulled Elena into his arms and kissed her to reassure her.
“Even if Li Ze sets up a trap, I have a way to find Wang Wu. He is the key to solving the case.”
Elena looked at Chen Xijiu intently, feeling immense admiration for him.
I was right; Chen Xijiu is a promising talent.
“The Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) has been watching me for a long time. Even so, I absolutely cannot show weakness.”
Chen Xijiu got into the car as he spoke, and Elena waved to him as he left.
In the car.
Chen Xijiu immediately mobilized all the assassins on Hong Kong Island to search for Wang Wu's whereabouts.
"Announce this: whoever finds Wang Wu will be rewarded with a bottle of enhancement potion."
With such a huge temptation in front of them, the assassins became even more serious about their work.
Even Ah Long wanted to get involved.
The enhancement potion, once ingested by the assassins, would increase their strength a hundredfold—something they had always dreamed of.
Sure enough, a generous reward will surely attract brave men.
When Chen Xijiu returned to his office, he immediately received the latest news from the assassins: Wang Wu's whereabouts had been found.
“Wang Wu is currently being held captive in the basement by Li Ze, but we have already intervened and will be able to rescue him soon.”
Chen Xijiu listened to A Long's report without changing his expression, and gradually he had figured out everything.
This must have been Li Ze's doing.
He was worried that Wang Wu would expose him, so he had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure. Little did he know that the net of heaven is vast and its meshes are wide, yet nothing escapes it.
"Bring him here as soon as possible, and get all the police officers involved in the rescue."
Ah Long quickly sent Wang Wu's exact location to Chen Xijiu, who immediately instructed the police station to dispatch officers.
Overnight, a large number of police officers and assassins gathered at one of Li Ze's villas.
What they didn't expect was that there were quite a few bodyguards hiding there.
As soon as the police car approached, the bodyguards quickly moved out and even drew their guns in an attempt to stop the police car from getting any closer.
"Bang bang bang..."
The gunfire ahead was deafening, and the police officers in the police car were incredulous.
They did not back down and quickly continued driving forward.
The confrontations with the bodyguards along the way made these police officers begin to have some fear of Li Ze's men.
"Suddenly..."
Bullets rained down on the police car, shattering several windows.
Fortunately, the police officers were wearing bulletproof vests; otherwise, several people might have died here today.
"They're inside, everyone come with me!"
The police officers ahead suddenly saw Ah Long appear. Ah Long was Chen Xi Jiu's subordinate, and they trusted him implicitly.
So he immediately followed Ah Long inside, by which time the bodyguards' firepower was already insufficient.
The overwhelming force of the assassins left them utterly powerless to reverse the situation.

Chan Sai-kau waited at the police station for his last chance.
Many media outlets have heard about this and are now staking out the location of the information that Wang Wu is about to find, making their final preparations.
The media has already begun to discuss it, whispering among themselves.
I'm worried this is another scam.
After all, the police station had never handled a case so cleanly and efficiently before, and they even thought it was a gimmick.
"Since Chen Xijiu became the director, the police station's case-handling speed has increased significantly, and this time he must have been prepared for it as well."
"This is completely different from what we expected. The police station is indeed much better than before. It was never this grand when Chief William was in charge."
"It seems that the Governor's decision to promote Chan Sai-kau to Director was indeed a good one."
The media outlets are fully prepared this time, determined to get their hands on the latest news. 077
Only in this way can we guide the flow of traffic.
Because of the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) incident, Hong Kong Island has many connections with the British side, and this time they need to obtain a press release.
Everyone who arrived was waiting for things to be settled, as the commercial building had already captured the attention of many.
They certainly don't want their real estate business to be hampered at this time.
Chen Xijiu sat calmly in the chair, waiting for news from Ah Long.
An hour later, Ah Long indeed brought good news.
