The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Not long after Xie Meilan sat back at her workstation, Lu Jie's secretary hurried over.

"Manager Xie, Mr. Lu asked you to come over for a moment."

"Me?" Xie Meilan asked in surprise, "Isn't Mr. Lu entertaining people from the Regulatory Bureau?"

The secretary looked at Xie Meilan with a strange expression and said, "The details of the matter were never explained."

Xie Meilan said helplessly: "Okay, I'll be there right away."

The secretary turned and left. Xie Meilan took out a makeup mirror, touched up her makeup, and then rushed to the meeting room.

Lu Jie stood at the door of the conference room, seemingly waiting for Xie Meilan.

"Mr. Lu, do you have something to talk to me about?" Xie Meilan glanced at her colleagues and spoke normally.

Lu Jie pulled Xie Meilan to a corner and said, "Did you know that Shen Lei was transferred to the Financial Regulatory Bureau?"

"What, who was transferred to the Supervisory Bureau?" Xie Meilan thought she had misheard.

Lu Jie said angrily: "Shen Lei is in the conference room. As a commissioner of the regulatory bureau, he is investigating our acquisition of Du's case."

Xie Meilan widened her eyes, thinking Lu Jie was joking with her!

"Are you sure? Shen Lei? A commissioner from the Regulatory Bureau, how is that possible!"

Lu Jie said speechlessly: "Tell me honestly, does Shen Lei have any connections in the Regulatory Bureau?"

Xie Meilan shook her head blankly and said, "What kind of connections can Shen Lei have? He is usually like a piece of wood. I asked him to find a leader to make connections, but he refused to go."

Lu Jie said with a gloomy face: "I called a friend in the regulatory bureau and asked him. Shen Lei was transferred here just two days ago. As soon as he arrived, he took over the special task force to investigate our company."

Xie Meilan now feels that it is a bit magical. How could her useless ex-husband be able to enter the regulatory bureau and even lead a special task force?

Is she crazy, or is the world crazy?
At this time, the door of the conference room opened and Mr. Chen walked out with Wang Gang.

When Xie Meilan saw Wang Gang, her eyes widened.

Wang Gang also saw Xie Meilan, and with a smile on his face, he came over and said hello: "Xie Meilan, we meet again."

Xie Meilan was surprised and asked: "Shen Lei, are you really here to investigate my company?"

Mr. Chen said unhappily: "Xie Meilan, this is Commissioner Shen."

When Xie Meilan came to her senses, she felt as sick as if she had eaten a fly, but she could only obediently call Wang Gang "Commissioner Shen".

Wang Gang smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, we have brought back the information about the Du Corporation acquisition. You also need to send someone to follow up."

Mr. Chen nodded and said, "I will ask Mr. Lu to follow up personally. You can talk to him if you have any questions."

Wang Gang glanced at him and said with a half-smile: "The Du acquisition case is handled by Mr. Lu. We will have to deal with each other in the future."

Lu Jie felt a chill in his heart and secretly groaned inwardly.

Xie Meilan also looked at Wang Gang with a complicated expression and was speechless for a long time.

Mr. Chen respectfully sent Wang Gang and the people from the Regulatory Bureau out, and when he came back he called Lu Jie to his office.

"Xie Meilan's promotion to director is on hold for now."

"Ah, Mr. Chen, Xie Meilan's promotion process has been completed!" Lu Jie said hurriedly.

"The Supervisory Bureau has come with ill intentions this time. I'm worried that with Xie Meilan here, Shen Lei won't let it go. Find a reason to suspend Xie Meilan first and wait until the investigation is over!"

"This is so unfair to Xie Meilan!" Lu Jie frowned.

Mr. Chen snorted coldly: "Lu Jie, I don't care if you want to pick up girls, but if it affects the company, can you bear the responsibility?"

Lu Jie argued: "Don't worry, Mr. Chen, I will find my friends in the regulatory bureau right away and suppress this matter. Shen Lei is just a small commissioner and can't touch our company."

Mr. Chen said with a gloomy face: "Lu Jie, I don't know why you like Xie Meilan, but I want to remind you that in our industry, we must not offend anyone but the people in the regulatory bureau."

Lu Jie fell silent. He certainly knew how powerful the regulatory bureau was. If Shen Lei was determined to keep biting him, he might even freeze the company's accounts. That would be a big problem. In the financial industry, no company with a clean bottom could withstand an investigation. In the past, Lu Jie had to bow and scrape when facing people from the regulatory bureau.

"You can talk to Shen Lei privately and see if he is willing to reconcile. It would be fine if he gave him some money." Mr. Chen said, "In short, I hope the Du case will end as soon as possible."

Lu Jie said seriously: "I will go to find Chief Ma, Shen Lei's direct supervisor, and ask him to transfer Shen Lei away."

Mr. Chen frowned, knowing that Lu Jie still couldn't let go of his pride and refused to bow to Wang Gang.

"It's up to you to do whatever you want. I only care about the results." Mr. Chen waved his hand and signaled Lu Jie to go out.

Lu Jie walked out of Mr. Chen's office and immediately loosened his tie, feeling extremely aggrieved. He never thought that one day he would be controlled by a small civil servant.

Xie Meilan had been waiting for Lu Jie, and went to meet him when she saw him come out.

"Mr. Lu, are you okay?"

Lu Jie sighed and said, "Let's go back to the office and talk."

The two returned to the office, Lu Jie closed and locked the door, pulled down the curtains, and then told Xie Meilan about the suspension.

"Why should I be suspended? I didn't do anything wrong." Xie Meilan got furious on the spot.

"Meilan, go home and rest for two days. Come back to work after I resolve this matter." Lu Jie comforted her softly.

Xie Meilan said aggrievedly: "It is so unfair to me what the company did."

"I know, I know everything." Lu Jie said, "Don't worry, I will go to the supervisory bureau today, and the matter will be settled in three days at most."

Xie Meilan asked in confusion: "How do you want to deal with Shen Lei?"

Lu Jie said gloomily: "I will find a way to transfer him out of the supervision bureau."

A trace of struggle flashed across Xie Meilan's face, and she seemed to want to plead for Wang Gang, but in the end she didn't say it.

Lu Jie comforted Xie Meilan and sent her home first, then drove to the Regulatory Bureau to have a good talk with Section Chief Ma.

Section Chief Ma did not reject Lu Jie, and the two met in a private club outside.

"Chief Ma, what's going on with Shen Lei?" Lu Jie poured a glass of Moutai for Chief Ma.

"Shen Lei is a newcomer who was parachuted into my department. I heard that it was arranged by the director. There's nothing I can do about it." Section Chief Ma sighed.

"Is Shen Lei Director Liu's man?" Lu Jie asked doubtfully.

Seeing that there was no one around, Section Chief Ma asked Lu Jie to come closer, and then whispered: "Shen Lei used to work in the archives, and the director and Director Liu are brothers-in-law."

Lu Jie's eyes lit up, and he murmured, "Did Shen Lei get into the Supervision Bureau through the relationship with the director of the archives?"

Section Chief Ma nodded and said, "That should be correct."

Lu Jie asked: "Chief Ma, can you transfer Shen Lei to another department and not be in charge of our company's case?"

Section Chief Ma said in embarrassment: "The Du acquisition case is a bit difficult to handle. We have received a report from above and we have to do something."

Lu Jie calmly reached down and handed a card to Section Chief Ma.

"Chief Ma, can you help me? Our company is not afraid of being investigated, but can we get someone else to investigate?"

Section Chief Ma raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "That's easy to say. We are actually very busy at work. We have to take on several cases at the same time. We are really overwhelmed."

Lu Jie also laughed.

After the deal was settled, the two played in the club for a few hours. Lu Jie specially found a few beautiful women to keep them company, and they didn't leave until after midnight.

The next day, Lu Jie was still drunk when he heard a knock on the door. He opened the door impatiently and saw a large group of people in uniform standing at the door.

"Are you Lu Jie? We need your help in investigating something."

When Lu Jie saw the other party's ID, he was stunned. (End of this chapter)
