Chapter 7: Ruthless Character

  Facing this 'bosomy' and sweet-looking little secretary Liu Yuqing, I smiled with an unusually 'cold' smile.

  "Some people say you are a murderer and a personal secretary, what do you think about this?"

  Liu Yuqing hastily covered her large chest, panting and jumping up and down, hurriedly saying: "It wasn't me, really wasn't me, I didn't do anything!"

  "Hmm, you didn't do it, I think you're not innocent either. The mayor is being manipulated by you, and on the outside, you're also manipulating a handsome guy. Oh, I get it, someone must have caught your little handsome guy and threatened you to pass on some message to the mayor, which ultimately led to his death. Hmm, that's definitely what happened."

  I grabbed onto something and started firing wildly, suspecting her of being the culprit.

  "No way!" Liu Yuqing whined and argued, "I've already broken up with my boyfriend from outside, he's still working at the car wash, don't believe me? You can go check if you want."

  Bang! I slammed my hand on the table and shouted: "Liu Yuqing, you're just a small secretary with over 40 million in savings. Who gave you this money? Tell me, who is the mastermind behind your plot to harm Li Ping? If you don't make it clear today, you'll be taken out of here in a police car and your next stop will be prison!"

  "Ah... Ah..." Liu Yuqing's face turned red and white, finally having to admit: "All of these were given to me by the mayor, some are handbags he gave me after I sold them to him, some are houses he gave me after I sold them to him. He rarely gives me money, but often gives me these material things."

  Oh ~ That's what it means, a lover is like a little bird, never feed it too full.

  I pretended to be incredulous on my face: "Your immediate superior Zhao Yingxue has already reported you, and you're still here pretending to be stupid. Hmph, stinky girl, I see that you won't shed tears until you see a coffin. Come on, take her away, lock her up in prison, give her a good scolding inside, make her eat some bitter fruit, and then confiscate all the stolen money!"

  As soon as she saw the four policemen approaching, they took out handcuffs and were about to arrest her. Liu Yuqing was so scared that her legs went soft: "Fourth Master, I really didn't know, please don't arrest me! Oh, right, Zhao Yingxue said I'm a bad person, but I think she's the bad one! She didn't bring the wallet that day!"

  "Hmm, wait a minute, give her another chance, speak up quickly." I said one sentence, and the four police colleagues rolled up their sleeves and roared.

  "Come on, little one, speak up quickly, otherwise I'll take you away and let you taste the severity of being in custody. You're still daring to be secretive and hide things in front of Young Master Si, aren't you tired of living?"

  I looked at that guy named Hu Er San with approval. He has been very efficient in handling things for us recently, working hard and hardly sleeping for a day or two.

  Liu Yuqing was so frightened, but instead 'exposed' a fierce and ruthless 'color': "I say, Secretary-General Zhao Yingxue that old cheap person, she's the worst, every time she comes to see Mayor Li, she'll bring a file folder, without exception, except for that day when she..."

  "Whore!" Suddenly, Zhao Yingxue appeared at the door and shouted: "You little slut, who are you calling a whore? I'll slap you to death!"

  My goodness! In front of my fourth uncle, she actually rushed up and hit me. This 'woman' really doesn't put me in her eyes at all!

  After I signaled him to stop, Hu Er San looked anxious and whispered in my ear: "This 'woman' is not easy to mess with. She almost married Liu Tong once, but later for the sake of Liu Tong's career, she slept with a top leader for one night, during which time she got pregnant. Since no one knew whose child it was, she had an abortion. Liu Tong didn't marry her in the end. Now she's the boss among the 'women' at the municipal bureau, and nobody dares to mess with her."

  "Ah! You're so promiscuous and cheap, I'll beat you to death, I'll slap you to death!"

  "Hmph! Old woman, I'm not afraid of you, come on and hit me!"

  Just as I was listening to Liu Tong's report, the two 'women' grabbed each other's hair and started slapping each other in the face, kicking with their feet, and scratching with their claws. They were fighting too fiercely!

  From this matter, I realized that the women who can stand by the leader's side are not ordinary goods. Especially those around the municipal bureau leaders, don't think they have big breasts and are lovely, with sweet voices, innocent and romantic, gentle and likable... Those are all ruthless characters, having killed countless competitors on their way to the top - absolutely ruthless people!

  "Hit it! Good~~~" I didn't go to stop them, instead I applauded and cheered: "Hey, close the big 'door' and let them fight, good, kick her, damn it, yes, you scratch like that, haha... your little secretary actually used biting, what a genius, hit..."

  In the end, the two women were exhausted from fighting each other.

  However, Liu Yuqing was very stubborn and wouldn't stop until she had knocked her down. Just as Zhao Yingxue was about to lose, the cleaning aunt Yang Xiufang stepped forward and pulled them apart: "Secretary General, Secretary Liu, stop fighting! Can't you just talk things through?"

  "Hmm~hmm~" The two of them simultaneously shook their heads, indicating that they had nothing more to say to each other.

  "You're a real talent!" I patted Liu Yuqing's shoulder: "Just because you dared to face this momentum, Fourth Master looks at you with favor, and in the future, you will definitely have more prospects than this secretary."

  "I don't care about her at all!" Liu Yuqing said indignantly: "Fourth Master, I want to report to you that on that day, this old woman didn't bring a file folder. You should know that I've been here since I was 17 and have known her for almost three years, meeting her hundreds of times. She always brings a file folder when entering the house, without exception. But that one time she entered with empty hands to talk to Mayor Li, there must be a huge conspiracy behind this."

  "Ridiculous!" Zhao Yingxue snorted: "The Municipal Bureau has encountered such a big thing, and all the work has stopped for the first time. Why do I still need to hold onto this file?"

  "It's just that you always carry a folder, no matter what." Liu Yuqing's eyes were firm: "I've been observing these small things carefully, and I've noticed that you always carry a folder in and out of the office, whether there's something going on or not. I've secretly looked at your folder several times, sometimes there are documents that need to be signed by the leader, and sometimes they're all just blank A4 paper."

  Zhao Yingxue sneered: "I see you observe men very carefully, seeing that the young man at the car wash is handsome, and then going to seduce him into doing things for you. What's wrong, are you tired of playing with old men and want to try a new flavor? You're just 'promiscuous' and 'cheap'."

  "You fart!" Liu Yuqing burst out in anger: "I was just pretending to be nice to him, but what kind of man is he without money or power? How could I possibly look up to him? I used him to get into the car wash and help Mayor Li steal Secretary Liu's secret documents."

  "Hah!" Zhao Yingxue laughed quite ruthlessly: "You actually dare to steal things from Director Liu, don't even think about 'mixing' in the municipal bureau anymore, and you can forget about staying in Lujiang City too!"

  "Don't wait, don't wait! The sky is big and the earth is wide. I won't believe you can still cover up everything with one hand!" Liu Yuqing cursed with a 'don't-care' attitude: "Old cheap woman, you've been embezzling construction funds everywhere, taking kickbacks, using Mayor Li as a shield, profiteering behind his back... I already have evidence! Hmph! If it weren't for that old lecher taking advantage of me, when I discovered your anomaly that day, I would have stopped you right there. How could you have had the chance to harm Mayor Li?"

  At this time, Shen Feng stepped forward and said: "Zhao Yingxue, you'd better confess honestly now. If you confess now, it can be considered as surrendering yourself, and you can get a lighter punishment. You have connections, money, in short, the sentence can be reduced, and you won't need to stay in prison for long before you can regain your freedom."

  "Hmph~ I've said it before, it wasn't me." Zhao Yingxue let out a cold snort, her eyes clearly sliding to another corner.

  Just then, Yang Xiufang, who was sweeping the floor, suddenly knelt down and said: "It was I who spread a rumor that Mayor Li's family members had been kidnapped. If he didn't die, his whole family would have to die. If I hadn't spread this rumor, my whole family would also have died."

  "Ah~~~!" Liu Yuqing shrieked like a cat whose tail had been stepped on: "She's clearly just a scapegoat, Fourth Master, you're the Four Great Divine Captors, you must investigate and get to the bottom of this!"

  "It's not necessary anymore." Yu Xiao Tian, who had been watching for half a day, also spoke up: "Their ending is all the same, no one can escape, it's just that there's an extra person who went to jail for personal gain. When facing a den of thieves, my method is to catch them all in one net."

  "What does that mean?" Zhao Yingxue's face turned stern: "Do you dare to move against Liu Tong, the municipal party committee? I dare say you don't have the guts, you don't dare!"

  Lin Zhen's eyes were as cold as ice in the ninth heaven: "We won't move Liu Tong, but moving you is no problem."

  "How can you do this? You don't have any evidence..." Zhao Yingxue shouted as the handcuffs were put on her.

  "Wait a minute." I patted Liu Yuqing's shoulder: "Let this little girl off easy, if she brings out evidence of Liu Tong's crimes, it'll be considered as redeeming herself by doing good deeds."

  "Ah~" Hu Er San widened his eyes and said: "Xiao Si Ye, what about the money she embezzled? Now she's even richer than those officials!"

  "As for the money, our leader has spoken, and that's final. No one can change it. I'm just saying that regarding the crime of accomplice, a detention of around ten days or so would be enough to educate him." At this moment, my mood was exceptionally pleasant. This Hu Er San is indeed a talented person!

  "Yes, Young Master Si." Hu Er San yelled and shouted, taking all three women away.

  As Liu Yuqing was leaving, he said with a strange expression: "Thank you, Fourth Master. After I leave, I will definitely invite Fourth Master to dinner."

  "Hmm ~ If you don't invite me to dinner after going out, in a few days, you'll have to move back in." This one sentence of mine was so shocking that it stunned a group of people.

  After those people left, three companions collectively 'forced' Gong.

  Yu Xiao Tian said first: "Chuan Jie, your move is too obvious."

  Shen Feng nodded: "That's what I'm saying, you're not related to her, why are you helping her?"

  Facing doubts, I waved my hand and said: "To put it bluntly, she's just a mistress. If we cut off the money from corruption, that's it. There are so many people like this in society, how can we control them all? Besides, what they did was illegal, not criminal. There's a difference between the two. I didn't break any rules."

  "Are you trying to take advantage of her?" Lin Zhen's cold voice suddenly came over.

  "Hmm~" I smiled in a rather eerie way: "With her around, you won't have to be the 'flower' guardian anymore..."
