Chapter 406 - Refusal
Chapter 406 – Refusal
Fang Tiancheng was stunned by the sudden report. Then his eyes were filled with interest. It seems that this young man treats me as a leader who knows nothing. Does he really think that I will uphold justice as long as he reports it? He glanced at the chief, who silently swallowed the words he wanted to say.
However, in Lin Ji’s opinion, this old leader’s trusted aide seemed to be on his side. He continued, “The chief wants this medicine to pass the review but it does not meet the standards of all passing standards at all. You can imagine how many innocent people will die from the side effects if it is officially released!”
He paused for a moment and continued, “What I said is not groundless. I have this report as evidence! It’s clearly written that the ingredients of the preventive medicine are used to treat colds, but because of the excessive starch and saccharin, their original remedial properties are gone! The nature of this matter is extremely grave! Please punish these people severely!”
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the chief. However, the chief put on a nonchalant expression. His eyes were filled with undisguised mockery that lingered for a long time. He sneered and said, “This world is not as simple as you think. Smart people should choose to ignore this matter. Only now do I realize that education doesn’t mean anything. However, it’s understandable. There are more or less idiots in every place!
I just didn’t expect you to need me to remind you…”
Before he could finish, Fang Tiancheng took the report that was full of red flags and interrupted him, “Chief, what’s wrong with you? Didn’t you tell me that the pills had been recalled? It’s impossible for anyone to do the test. Then what’s with this report?”
These words made the sharp Lin Ji realize that something was wrong. The speculation in his mind gradually took shape, and his pupils constricted slightly. Then he looked at this big shot in disbelief and thought to himself, Are these two people in cahoots? Otherwise, after hearing what I said, his expression should be angry, not calm like now.
The chief’s fingers kept pulling his sleeve as he said nervously, “It’s the people under me who are not efficient. They were a step too late. It’s not like I didn’t ask those inspectors if they had made a report, but the answer I got was no. I thought that they wouldn’t dare to defy my orders. I didn’t expect them to make a mistake!”
“Heh, looks like I overestimated your ability.”
Fang Tiancheng concluded. Although this chief was obedient, he couldn’t help but go crazy from time to time. If he were to fail, it would be bad! No one present knew that he was already considering whether to replace him. After all, many people had given him a lot of money just to get a promotion and a raise.
“Have you… been bribed too?!”
Lin Ji thought to himself that it was impossible. Who is that Xingwei Medical Group? Not only could they make the chief stand against justice, but they also have the old leader as their backer? They can’t be the relatives of some big shot, right? No matter how he thought about it, he couldn’t figure out the real relationship between these people. He was just increasingly disappointed with this place.
If even the officials had been corroded by the darkness, was there any place that was clean? He suddenly felt a little breathless. The mountain in front of him was really as that person had said in the testing department. It was not something an ordinary person like him could resist!
The corners of Fang Tiancheng’s mouth curled up, and he nodded maliciously, as if he was deliberately destroying Lin Ji’s last delusion. He said, “Congratulations, you guessed right. But there’s no reward. In fact, I asked the chief to do this. I was the one who was bribed by Xingwei, not him. He is just following orders.”
Chief…

Did I misunderstand!?
Lin Ji gasped. He thought he could seek justice with Fang Tiancheng, but he didn’t expect the two of them to be birds of a feather?! Before he could think further, his rationality was drowned by his emotions. He asked angrily, “Do you really know what you’re doing? This is not a small matter! People will die if they take it!
What do you take them for?! Even if you’re a trusted aide of the old leader, I don’t think you have the right to rob others of their lives! I think you’re executioners. Anyone who tacitly agreed that this inferior medicine should be released is their indirect murderer!”
His voice echoed throughout the office, followed by a dead silence.
Just as the three of them were in a deadlock, Fang Tiancheng spoke first. “Lin Ji, right? I don’t know who gave you the guts to speak to me like this, but I have to admit that your courage is commendable. I think you need to understand the difference in status between us. If I say there’s no problem, there’s no problem. If I say this medicine has to pass the review, it has to pass!”
He smiled viciously and said, “I’ll get rid of whoever stands in my way! Because I’m your superior! I’ve been in this position for so many years. Do you think a newbie like you knows more than me? This report is nonsense! You guys made it up! I’ve already tested this medicine with someone outside. They all say it’s a qualified product!
And it will definitely have a positive effect on the epidemic! In my opinion, it’s just sour grapes on your part!”
Lin Ji was so angry that he laughed. In any case, the situation could not get any worse, so he might as well say what was on his mind! Hence, he said bluntly, “Are you sure you’re not lying to yourself? If there’s really no problem, why did you specially do the test outside? Is it because you can only bribe the people outside? Because no one can guarantee that no one in the review center will expose this matter!”
It is easy enough for them to force one person to disappear. But a group of people?
He did not think that Fang Tiancheng was powerful enough to suppress so many people by himself without alarming the outside world!
His words seemed to have hit a raw nerve. Fang Tiancheng flew into a rage out of humiliation and said, “Shut up! I think you’re tired of living! Is this how you treat your leader? Would you believe that I won’t let you return to the capital for the rest of your life! If you kneel down and beg me, I don’t mind giving you a chance!”
He had already made up his mind not to let Lin Ji have an easy time. The outcome would be the same whether he stayed in the capital or not. He had said those words with the intention of making fun of him.
How could Lin Ji be afraid of this person? He straightened his back again and said, “Since things have come to this, there’s no way for me to turn back. Didn’t the chief say just now? If you want to send me to the countryside to be a station commander, so be it! I won’t regret it! Anyway, I don’t think I did anything wrong! But I also have something to say to you!”
He took a deep breath and said, “Don’t let me find an opportunity. Otherwise, I won’t let you stay in this position in peace! Even if I die, I’ll bite off a piece of your flesh! What can’t kill me will definitely make me stronger!”
Such arrogant words shocked the chief and Fang Tiancheng! This person really doesn’t know his own limits, they thought. A mere mortal wanting to pull us down? Why doesn’t he look himself in the mirror and ask if he is worthy!
