Liu Liang had been with the Bureau of Industry and Commerce for over a decade without a single promotion, working as a frontline enforcement officer.
Why? Because he was too impartial, never bending the law for personal gain, which meant he'd offended a lot of people.
But he was also undeniably competent, so the bureau's leadership couldn't bring themselves to fire him. Instead, they just kept him on the front lines.
As it happened, Liu Liang and Liu Tianwang were distantly related—cousins several times removed. This whole affair had been instigated by Liu Tianwang, partly as a way to help out his relative.
After all, besides their salaries, frontline officers earned bonuses, and those bonuses came from busting business owners for illegal operations.

'This is a sure thing.'
'If that certificate isn't fake, he'd do a handstand right here and wash his hair in the gutter.'
