He didn't say it because Wu Qiangwei was still there.

There were many things between him and Qu Xiangru that she didn't know.

Song Guanchao didn't plan to tell her either.

He intended to find a time to talk to her alone.

As they left Qu Xiangru's office, Wu Qiangwei suddenly said softly, "Thank you for today."

Song Guanchao turned his head to look at her and saw a faint blush on her face.

Song Guanchao's smile was gentle, and although he didn't speak, the smile struck a chord in Wu Qiangwei's heart.

Her cheeks quickly warmed up visibly.

She quickened her pace and walked towards the office.

Song Guanchao chuckled and called from behind, "Secretary, I'm going to handle the case first."

"Okay." Wu Qiangwei hurried away.

Song Guanchao turned around and returned to Qu Xiangru's office.

Jiang Yiren thought he was looking for her: "Song..."

"I have something to discuss with Secretary Qu."

Song Guanchao didn't say much to her and directly pushed the door open and walked in.

Qu Xiangru wasn't surprised, as if she had guessed he would come back.

"The person behind it should be Secretary Tian," Song Guanchao expressed his suspicion.

Qu Xiangru said, "Knowing doesn't help. Secretary Tian does things cleanly and won't leave traces."

Song Guanchao said, "He must have someone in Lingjiang. I need to get this person out."

"It's meaningless," Qu Xiangru shook her head.

Initially, she was also very angry because it related to her future.

But after calming down, she realized there wasn't much she could do about this matter.

At most, she could convict Qin Yuejin.

Even knowing it was Secretary Tian pulling the strings behind the scenes, she was powerless.

Because Secretary Tian would never admit it.

Song Guanchao rubbed his chin and said, "Whether it's meaningful or not, we must find this person, at least to know who our enemy is."

"Moreover, there are ways to resolve this matter."

Qu Xiangru raised her eyebrows slightly, "You have a way?"

"Yes!" Song Guanchao's tone was filled with strong confidence.

Qu Xiangru was very curious. She could see that Song Guanchao wasn't just bragging; he really had the confidence to solve the problem.

"What's the method?"

"Want to know?"

Song Guanchao pointed to his face, "Give me a kiss, and I'll tell you."

"Haha." Qu Xiangru leaned against the back of the chair, motionless.

Song Guanchao sighed, "Owing me so many favors, is it that hard to give me a kiss?"

Qu Xiangru suddenly stopped speaking.

Indeed, she owed Song Guanchao too many favors.

This time, when Qin Yuejin held a gun to kidnap her, Song Guanchao chased after them without regard for his own safety.

Even a heart of stone would be moved, let alone hers, which wasn't made of stone.

"Forget it, let's talk tonight."

"Make some time tonight to go to Secretary Wu's house so we can talk in-depth."

After saying this seriously, Song Guanchao got up and left.

After he left, Qu Xiangru's face turned slightly red.

She naturally understood what Song Guanchao meant by "in-depth talk."

But suddenly, she realized that Song Guanchao just mentioned going to Wu Qiangwei's house?

This bastard... did he want to do it again like last time, in front of Wu Qiangwei?

His courage was really getting bigger and bigger!

...

Song Guanchao arrived at the office on the first floor, and after a short time, Jiang Yiren and Wu Yun came over.

Both were assigned to the special task force, and on the police side, Captain Shi from the criminal police team was in charge.

From the City Government, Secretary Sun was assigned.

Song Guanchao led them out, heading to the criminal police team.

After reaching the place, Secretary Sun arrived simultaneously.

Walking into the office of the criminal police team, Song Guanchao didn't delay and got straight to the point, "Don't send too many people over in Lingjiang. If the body can be found, find it; if not, let it be; this isn't the focus."

Captain Shi frowned, "The body is still important."

"Not as important as the case," said Song Guanchao, "Captain Shi, you investigate Qin Yuejin's case. I believe it shouldn't be difficult to investigate."

Captain Shi nodded. It was indeed not difficult to investigate. With Qin Yuejin's high-profile style, even a fool could find issues.

Song Guanchao asked, "Where is Zhang Yulin now?"

Captain Shi replied, "He has been dismissed and expelled from the party."

"Contact him, get him over here... forget it, don't contact him; go straight to his place and arrest him, bring him back."

"District Chief Song thinks Zhang Yulin is connected with Qin Yuejin?"

"Bring him back first, then discuss."

"Okay, I will arrange for his arrest shortly."

"Where is Qin Yuejin's wife?"

"She is arranged to stay at a hotel, and the police are responsible for guarding."

"Send me the address... write it down for me."

He just remembered his phone was taken by Qin Yuejin when he jumped into the river.

Captain Shi wrote down the address, and Song Guanchao took it and left.

Once in the car, Song Guanchao glanced at Wu Yun in the passenger seat, "Got money on your phone?"

"Yes."

"Buy me a phone, and I'll pay you back later."

"Sure."

Jiang Yiren, in the back seat, couldn't help but glance at Wu Yun, listening to their very familiar conversation tone.

Driven by a woman's intuition, she felt there was something going on between the two.

Soon, they arrived at the mall.

Song Guanchao bought a new phone but didn't get a replacement for the previous SIM card; instead, he got a new number.

He thought, if Qin Yuejin were still alive, he might be able to contact him through that phone.

His phone was waterproof, so it would be fine if it fell into the water.

After leaving the mall, they immediately headed to the hotel.

"Wait for me outside."

Song Guanchao didn't let them in.

If anyone experienced being kidnapped and then their husband committing suicide within one day, they would break down.

Too many people would easily make this woman feel nervous.

He knocked first, telling the person inside he was coming in, avoiding triggering an extreme reaction.

Inside the room, there was a woman in her forties and a boy about thirteen or fourteen.

The middle-aged woman was well-maintained, with a good appearance and figure.

For her age, it was already very rare.

At this moment, the woman was sitting on a chair, her pupils slightly out of focus.

The boy was leaning on the sofa, playing games on his phone.

He seemed unaware of what had happened.

"Mrs. Qin." Song Guanchao sat down, smiling, "I'm Song Guanchao, responsible for Director Qin's case."

The woman was visibly uncomfortable, with restless eyes, appearing unsettled.

Song Guanchao asked, "Has Director Qin met anyone these past two days?"

The woman shook her head; no matter what Song Guanchao asked, she always responded with a shake of her head as if she didn't know anything.

Although he didn't get any information, Song Guanchao wasn't in a hurry.

After routinely asking what needed to be asked, Song Guanchao said, "I heard the last call Director Qin made."

The woman suddenly looked at him, her hands subconsciously clenched, as if trying to determine whether the man in front of her was telling the truth or was just trying to trick her.

Song Guanchao seemed unnoticed by her scrutinizing gaze, continuing to speak on his own, "Director Qin transferred his assets."

The woman's eyes trembled slightly.

Song Guanchao continued, "He told you someone would contact you and provide some compensation."

The woman subconsciously opened her mouth as if to deny it. Song Guanchao smiled and said, "There's no need to deny it. I was right next to him when he made the call, and I heard it all."

Of course, he couldn't have heard it, but at that time, Qin Yuejin making a final call was naturally to arrange his affairs.

He hadn't heard it, but Song Guanchao could guess.

Judging from the parents' reaction, his guess was correct.

"I will apply to freeze Director Qin's assets, as they're all illegal gains."

"Knowing Director Qin for so long, this sudden accident saddens me too."

"Out of friendship, I'll try to look after you as best as I can. But first, I hope Mrs. Qin can cooperate a little."
