"Secretary Zheng, even if you threaten me, it's useless. Facts are facts, and since you've done it, you should understand the consequences."
Wu Cheng not only didn't back down, but stepped forward to face Secretary Zheng. He spoke with righteous indignation and then produced a document, "This document is the procurement report for the cross-river bridge project. Some of the procurement companies over the years were owned by your wife, Mrs. Zheng."
From my spot in the audience, I saw Secretary Zheng's fingers twitch slightly—an obvious sign of his nervousness. I've long known about the benefits Mrs. Zheng received.
Cheng Yu had told me before that Master Zhao was able to secure the project from Secretary Zheng because he was willing to give up ninety percent of the profits to her.
Mrs. Zheng couldn't resist such a huge temptation and went back to whisper in her husband's ears.
