"I've also resolved my worries, it's a complete win-win situation."
Lu Zhenglian looked at Chen Xijiu with complicated emotions. He suddenly realized that he was unsure which side Chen Xijiu was on.
The police department and the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) are clearly mortal enemies.
“We now understand that peaceful coexistence is impossible, and the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) will definitely tell the police to continue their investigation.”
Lu Zhenglian has already planned to bring Chen Xijiu into the game, making him an inside man for their Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC).
Such a good opponent, if we could become friends, would definitely bring a lot of intelligence to their Independent Commission Against Corruption.
"If we discover even the slightest instance of corruption or illegal activity, we will immediately launch a thorough investigation."
Chen Xijiu understood his implied meaning and refused him directly without any politeness.
"I will naturally not grant your request in this matter. I will not participate in the work of your Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), but I will not help you either. This matter is purely for the sake of the people of Hong Kong."

Chen Xijiu's words made Lu Zhenglian look at him with new respect.
However, the current situation seems to be different from what they had anticipated. In order to have enough advantages, Lu Zhenglian quickly resolved the situation on both the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) and the police station.
With the help of the information provided by Chen Xijiu, a thorough investigation of the police station has begun, but the death of Chief William has already caused quite a stir.
"I am very satisfied with this cooperation. I believe that as long as you are in the police station, it will not be as dark as when Brother Lok was there."
Lu Zhenglian's words made Chen Xijiu laugh out loud. He would never exploit the people of Hong Kong like Brother Le.
In any case, I'm just an ordinary person.
In this conflict, Chen Xijiu had already clearly seen the situation and was forced to act.
"Our current cooperation is solely for the benefit of the people of Hong Kong. I hope you won't push your luck. There's still no way we can compete."
Chen Xijiu's words instantly put Lu Zhenglian on his guard.
Fortunately, this time, Chen Xijiu did not kill him.
He cannot rely on the influence of others. At this critical moment, only by truly transferring the entire plan to the property management can he gain an absolute advantage.
Quickly set everything up.
They would never allow any drawbacks to occur in these areas.
After Chen Xijiu finished speaking, he turned and left. Lu Zhenglian watched Chen Xijiu's back, lost in thought.
Chen Xijiu and Ah Long were preparing to go back, but unexpectedly they received a call from the Governor of Hong Kong at that moment.
"Come to my office right now, I have something to ask you."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Xijiu's expression became increasingly complicated, and Ah Long, who was driving, also became more composed as he watched Chen Xijiu.
“Master, why don’t we get rid of the Governor of Hong Kong now? With him around, there will be someone to keep you in check throughout Hong Kong Island.”
"The cooperation with Lu Zhenglian will definitely not go smoothly. Our real estate business has also been greatly affected by this A Fund."
Ah Kun did indeed invest in Fund A when he was making investments before.
He saw the huge profits that Fund A could generate after its listing, so he invested all his savings into it.
But this is the result I never expected.
Chen Xijiu was disappointed when he found out, but fortunately the losses had been recovered.
Hearing Ah Long's words, Chen Xijiu frowned, but didn't take them to heart.
"The Governor of Hong Kong was appointed by the British Empire himself. His ability to establish himself on Hong Kong Island was not due to our strength at all."
"With Great Britain as a backer, dealing with him won't be easy; we can only proceed step by step."
Chen Xijiu instructed Ah Long to drive directly to the Governor's home.
An hour later, Chen Xijiu was already standing at the door.
Chen Xijiu was somewhat surprised when he saw Elena.
As soon as Elena saw Chen Xijiu, she ran over and threw herself into his arms.
“We haven’t seen each other for almost half a month, and you don’t even seem to miss me. It’s really awful that you had to have my father call you to come back for dinner.”
Chen Xijiu kissed Elena on the cheek, and looking at her beautiful face, he held her in his arms and coaxed her for a while.
"The police station has been incredibly busy lately, as you probably know, with the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) investigating Foundation A."
As Chen Xijiu spoke, he and Elena walked into the house.
That's why I haven't had time to look for you.

Elena did not blame Chen Xijiu. On the contrary, she treated Chen Xijiu with courtesy. She had already considered that many situations had arisen, which were beyond their expectations.
Fortunately, before that, we were able to keep all these plans under control.
Even without the unexpected events, this situation might still have caused considerable impact.
“My father was very angry when he learned about the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC)’s activities. He also wanted to ask you how the ICAC found out about Foundation A.”
"You must answer seriously, and don't make him angry."
Elena was worried; she knew very well that Chen Xijiu was not the type to keep quiet.
However, the current situation has already exceeded their expectations.
The Governor of Hong Kong was furious about the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) incident. Upon hearing this, Chan Sai-kau nodded slightly and agreed.
Upon arriving at the Governor's office, the Governor got straight to the point, throwing a document directly in front of Chan Sai Kau.
Several of the photos were taken of Chen Xijiu and Lu Zhenglian meeting privately in a coffee shop.
"You should give me a proper explanation now, what exactly is the relationship between you and Lu Zhenglian?"
The Governor's face was ashen, clearly indicating that he had developed suspicions about Chan Sai Kau.
Chen Xijiu wasn't too nervous. After seeing the photo, he smiled and relaxed a lot.
When he looked at the Governor of Hong Kong, he immediately thought of the best and most suitable reason.
“As the director of the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), Lu Zhenglian has never let up on his investigation of the police department. After Henry disappeared, he met with me privately several times.”
Chan Sai-kau did not deny that he and Luk Ching-lim had met privately, after all, the Governor of Hong Kong was a naturally suspicious person.
It won't be so easy to shut him up.
"He wanted to know Henry's whereabouts from me, but I didn't tell him anything. This photo was probably taken around that time."
Upon hearing Chen Xijiu's words, the Governor of Hong Kong frowned and looked Chen Xijiu up and down, seemingly unable to believe it.
"You think I'll let you off the hook just because you said that? Even if it's because of Henry."
The Governor of Hong Kong really didn't want to let this go so easily this time.
He trusted Chen Xijiu very much and even promoted him, because he didn't want things to get out of his control.
This was a very difficult thing for him.
The Governor slammed his hand on the table with a loud bang, his gaze dark as he looked at Chen Xijiu and unleashed a wave of oppressive power.
"Henry, you failed to find him several times, but instead he showed up at the press conference. How do you explain that?"
Chen Xijiu looked up at the Governor of Hong Kong, whose expression remained calm, showing no sign of nervousness.
"If I really had a relationship with Lu Zhenglian, why would I have stepped forward and come up with the idea of the Internal Investigation Bureau when the Independent Commission Against Corruption was investigating the police station?"
Chan Sai-kau looked up without changing his expression, and his words immediately calmed the Governor of Hong Kong down considerably.
"The Governor of Hong Kong should have already had the answer."
The two men frowned and looked at each other, as if trying to find a flaw in his (Wang Hao's) words.
Ultimately, the Governor of Hong Kong chose to believe Chan Sai Kau.
He sat down in the chair and instantly deflated.
The successive misfortunes of Henry and William dealt a heavy blow to the Governor of Hong Kong, leaving him with only Chan Sai-kau as a figure he could rely on.
"Now that you've become the commissioner of the police station, hurry up and get your real estate business sorted out. Don't worry about the Independent Commission Against Corruption for the time being."
"Row!"
Chen Xijiu agreed without hesitation.
Chapter 395, the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) recovers its losses! (Please subscribe and support!)
When Chen Xijiu returned to Guangming Real Estate Company, the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) had already deepened its investigation into Fund A.
Qian Tong just happened to obtain a batch of materials.
“I was shocked when I looked into Fund A. It’s amazing that it was able to attract so much money in such a short period of time. It’s obvious that someone is manipulating things behind the scenes.”
People simply couldn't imagine how many brilliant minds in Hong Kong would be implicated if Fund A were to successfully go public.
They originally thought that by investing their money and waiting for the fund to go public, they could immediately receive a large sum of money based on their market share and realize their dream of getting rich overnight.
Unexpectedly, Fund A took advantage of their mindset.
"I had already thought that a lot of things would happen, but I didn't expect there to be so many hidden dangers in Fund A."
