Chapter 350 Zhao Lichun is appreciated
However, Zhao Lichun's words did not arouse anyone's sympathy.
The investigators in the interrogation room looked at him with indifference and disappointment in their eyes.
"Zhao Lichun, don't make excuses for your mistakes."
An investigator said solemnly, “Corruption is corruption, and breaking the law is breaking the law.
No matter what your starting point is, it cannot change the fact that you committed a crime."
Zhao Lichun widened his eyes and looked at the investigators, "You don't understand me.
You only see my mistakes but not my efforts.
Those who are lazy and do nothing are the real problem.
They are undermining the foundation of the country and harming the interests of the people."
"Zhao Lichun, your actions have seriously damaged the interests of the country and the people."
The investigator pulled no punches, saying, “You can’t blame others for your mistakes. You must take responsibility for your own actions.”
Zhao Lichun remained silent, knowing that his defense was futile.
He lowered his head, his heart filled with regret and helplessness.
After a while, Zhao Lichun raised his head again, and the previous anger and unwillingness were no longer in his eyes.
"I was wrong. I was really wrong. I shouldn't make excuses for my mistakes. I should face my crimes bravely."
He sighed, "I hope those cadres who are still on the job can learn from my mistakes.
Don't repeat my mistakes, but truly serve the people and contribute your own strength to the development of the country.
Don’t be one of those lazy and inactive people. Be a good cadre who is responsible and capable.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a staff member came in and motioned Zhao Lichun to follow him.
Zhao Lichun felt a little doubtful, but he still stood up obediently and followed the staff out of the interrogation room.
They walked down a long corridor and finally came to a seemingly ordinary room.
However, this room gives people a mysterious feeling, with dim lights and a solemn atmosphere.
Zhao Lichun looked around, feeling uneasy.
He didn't know what was waiting for him.
At this moment, the door of the room suddenly closed, and he was left alone in this small dark room.
Zhao Lichun's heartbeat began to accelerate, and he didn't know whether this was a punishment or something else.
As time passed, Zhao Lichun became more and more nervous.
He began to reflect on what he had done, and his heart was filled with anxiety and fear.
However, just when he was about to despair, things took an unexpected turn.
The door opened again and a serious-looking man walked in.
The appearance of this person surprised Zhao Lichun. He didn't know who this person was or what his purpose was in coming here.
However, the man's first words shocked Zhao Lichun.
"Zhao Lichun, you passed the test." The man's voice was steady and powerful.
Zhao Lichun's eyes widened, he couldn't believe his ears. "Test? What test?" he asked doubtfully.
The man smiled slightly and said, "This is a test from above for you.
Your abilities and achievements have always been noticed by those above you, and they believe that you are a cadre with potential.
However, they also need to be assured of your loyalty and commitment.
So, they designed this test, using Chen Yanshi's incident as a trigger, to see if you can stick to your principles and tell the truth when facing pressure and difficulties. "
After hearing what this person said, Zhao Lichun felt a complex emotion in his heart.
He was both surprised and ashamed.
He didn't expect that he would become the object of a test.
At the same time, he was also ashamed of his past mistakes.
He knew that although he was capable, he had also made unforgivable mistakes.
"Did I really pass the test?" Zhao Lichun asked uncertainly.
The man nodded, “Yes, you passed the test.
Your performance allows those above you to see your potential and value.
They decided to give you a chance to continue to serve the country and its people.”
Zhao Lichun's heart was filled with excitement and gratitude.
He didn't expect that after experiencing so many setbacks and difficulties, he would still get such an opportunity.
He secretly vowed to cherish this opportunity, perform well and live up to the trust and expectations of his superiors.
Just then, the man's cell phone rang.
He picked up the phone, listened for a while, and then handed the phone to Zhao Lichun. "It's a big boss calling you." He said.
Zhao Lichun took the phone tremblingly and put it to his ear.
A majestic yet kind voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Zhao Lichun, we have all seen your performance.
Although you made mistakes, your ability and responsibility are undeniable.
We have decided to give you an opportunity to continue to develop your talents and make greater contributions to the reform and development of Handong Province.
You have to remember that this opportunity is hard to come by, you have to cherish it and don’t make the same mistake again.”
Zhao Lichun listened to the words of the big boss, and his heart was filled with emotion and determination. He quickly said: "Thank you for the trust and support of the leader, I will definitely not let you down.
I will contribute to the reform and development of Handong Province with greater enthusiasm and firmer conviction.
I will bear in mind my mission and responsibilities and be a good cadre who is responsible and capable of doing things.”
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Lichun breathed a sigh of relief.
He felt as if he had been reborn, his heart filled with hope and motivation.
At this moment, he finally understood that his every move was under strict surveillance from above, and everything he did had far-reaching consequences.
In this case, he decided to work hard, start from scratch, and live up to the trust and opportunity given by his superiors.
At the same time, Chen Yanshi was admitted to the hospital.
Despite his background as a founding father, he was seen by some as just an old fogey.
In this power game, he seemed to have become a stepping stone for Zhao Lichun and did not receive the care he deserved.
Chen Yanshi lay alone on the hospital bed, feeling helpless and desolate.
His son Chen Kai, disappointed and helpless about his father's situation, took his mother to Myanmar to try to rescue his sister Chen Yang.
They struggled forward on the road in a foreign country, their hearts full of worry and anxiety.
On the other side, Qi Tongwei was shocked when he learned that Chen Hai had brought his mother with him.
He didn't expect that Chen Hai would appear at this time, which made him and Zhao Ruilong fall into extreme panic.
They knew very well that Chen Hai had been pursuing their illegal and criminal activities, and his arrival now undoubtedly brought them tremendous pressure.
