CHAPTER 434: CHAPTER 434: CAN’T STAND OTHERS BULLYING HER

After Ouyang Zhen left, Song Baiyan stood under the doorway and watched the sedan drive away, not entering the house for a long while.

He had just sat down when Ji Ming came over with a cellphone.

"Apart from the Ouyang Family, Director Han from the Judicial Administration Bureau also visited the detention center this afternoon."

Upon hearing this, Song Baiyan slowed down his tea-drinking.

Ji Ming continued, "He didn’t say anything he shouldn’t have, just inquired about some matters."

"He learned that Ouyang Hua indeed hid drugs and privately engaged in drug-trafficking deals. Without seeing anyone, he left the director’s office and departed."

Song Baiyan put down his teacup: "At least he knows what’s at stake, what to touch and what not to."

If Han Jifeng considered the grace of being promoted by the Lai Family and actually tried to mediate a relationship to fish Ouyang Hua out, it would only show that Han Jifeng was unfit for his position.

At least in his eyes, there would be no more uses for Han Jifeng.

"I don’t think this Director Han is a fool."

Hearing Ji Ming say this, Song Baiyan voiced his analysis, "At his age, one has either experienced great changes in life or been continuously suppressed before, otherwise, it would be difficult to have such composure. In the political arena, such a character lacks smoothness, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing."

Suddenly, Ji Ming remembered something and spoke, "At the state banquet that night, the marriage Councilman Lai arranged for Miss Tang could very well be Jifeng."

At that time, he went to invite Tang Li and saw Han Jifeng sitting with the Lai Family People.

At that table, only Han Jifeng was a single young man.

Song Baiyan hadn’t thought much about this before. After the state banquet, Lai Wenyan did not promise Tang Li’s hand in marriage to anyone, and along with the words Tang Li spoke at the banquet, they were neglected due to recent busyness.

Now that Ji Ming mentioned it, Song Baiyan recalled what Bai Yiqian once said here, that Lai Wenyan might marry off his daughter to draw in Han Jifeng, and Tang Li was the most suitable candidate. According to Hu Haisheng’s investigation, Han Jifeng had interactions with Lai Wenyan’s eldest daughter during his school years.

If Tang Li herself insists on marrying Han Jifeng, it’s not for others to interfere, but in fact, Tang Li’s opposition has been openly displayed.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have made such a scene at the state banquet.

Song Baiyan then asked Ji Ming, "Is our Director Han in a rush to get married?"

"About that... I’m not quite sure." Ji Ming paused, then continued, "I only know that quite a few families with daughters indeed want to introduce their daughters to Director Han, after all, in most people’s eyes, his future prospects are immeasurable."

After a while, Song Baiyan spoke up, "Judge Ji Jianguo of the Supreme Court, I remember he has a daughter."

Ji Ming nodded, "Indeed, she’s 24 years old."

"Tomorrow, give him a call and ask if his family is still in need of a son-in-law."

"..." Ji Ming looked up at his master.

Naturally, he understood the implication in his master’s words.

Was his master—

Planning on playing matchmaker for Director Han?

Ji Ming thought of Tang Li, and the doubts entangling his mind vanished.

Regardless of whether Miss Tang will marry his master in the future, as of now, Miss Tang belongs to his master.

Therefore, it’s within reason for his master to do such a thing.

After Ji Ming left, Song Baiyan stood in front of the window for a long time, gazing out at the endless night, with the image of Tang Li standing on the stage that night, her slim figure, in his mind. All emotions amounted to but a soft sigh.

Having become someone he keeps close within the palm of his hand, he could never bear to see her insulted by others.
