His mouth twitched slightly. In the end, Ding Weiguang chose to remain silent. He could not extricate himself from this matter; any further suggestions might only bring more trouble upon himself.
Back in his office, Nie Zhenbang picked up the red secure telephone and dialed a number. After two beeping sounds, an extremely serious voice came from the other end, "Hello?"
Nie Zhenbang recognized the voice immediately. It belonged to an old acquaintance, Liang Yuan, who had been the secretary of President Qiao during his tenure in Minan.
