Chapter 292: Chapter 292

"Disciplinary Committee?"

Song Guanchao revealed a faint smile and shook his head slightly.

Minister Zhou had, from limited information, deduced that Mayor Zheng was plotting against him. His ability to sort through such confusion was impressive.

However, his suggestion was something Song Guanchao had already considered.

It was not a good idea.

"Do you think I told you to report to the Disciplinary Committee in advance?"

Minister Zhou read his thoughts from his eyes.

Song Guanchao smiled silently; he admitted nothing.

Minister Zhou did not mind his attitude; he had guessed before coming here that Song Guanchao would never admit to it.

"You have nothing in your hands, so going to the Disciplinary Committee in advance is naturally useless. But what if you did have something?"

"What could be in my hands?"

Song Guanchao initially didn’t understand his meaning.

Minister Zhou explained, "You’re currently responsible for a research phase project, and you know what is supposed to be kept confidential during this phase, right?"

Seeing him still pondering, Minister Zhou decided to make his point even clearer.

"If you were responsible for securing exam papers for the university entrance exam and those papers got leaked on the eve of the exams, what would you do?"

"Leaked exam papers..."

Impulsively, Song Guanchao exclaimed, "Report it to the police."

Minister Zhou faintly smiled, "Right, report it. Then your suspicion is cleared; no one would suspect the leaker is you. Because there is no benefit to you at all."

His words made Song Guanchao suddenly understand.

He now grasped Minister Zhou’s meaning.

He had some admiration for this organization minister.

These past two days, he had talked to Liang Jiajia and Wu Qiangwei.

The three of them had thought for two days but had failed to come up with a good solution.

They even felt that there was no good way to entirely clear himself in this matter.

Now, Minister Zhou told him that anything could be solved and threw out a convincing solution that made him wholeheartedly admit defeat.

Song Guanchao didn’t speak, filled his cup to the brim, and toasted him.

Minister Zhou gently smiled, accepting it with ease.

After leaving the restaurant, Minister Zhou left by taxi, and Song Guanchao also took a taxi back home.

Tonight’s dinner with Minister Zhou was truly worthwhile.

A conversation with him proved to be more enlightening than ten years of reading. It couldn’t be truer.

The political wisdom of Minister Zhou far exceeded his by more than a mile.

He was somewhat glad that at this stage, he had offended only Mayor Zheng and not Minister Zhou.

Facing Mayor Zheng was already somewhat difficult; if Minister Zhou had made a move, he probably wouldn’t have noticed the problem until it was too late.

"Did you drink?"

Liang Jiajia, having finished her shower, lay beside him and sniffed.

"Mm, I had a dinner engagement."

"Did you find a way to handle the project?"

"I did."

"That fast?"

"Mm."

"What’s the solution, tell me about it?"

"Want to know?"

"Come on, tell me!"

"You have to kiss me first."

Smack!

"Not on the cheek."

Liang Jiajia’s face flushed, and she bit her lip, making a humming sound, but still obediently dove under the covers.

She knelt between Song Guanchao’s legs, her ample bust pressing against his densely hairy thighs, holding Xiao Song in her hands, her tongue wandering, allowing Song Guanchao to relax both in body and spirit, reaching the pinnacle of his life.

Song Guanchao said, "The survey report has been lost."

"How could it be lost?"

"It was stolen."

"Who stole it? Did you call the police? Did they find out?"

"It’s a case of the thief crying ’stop, thief’."

The more Liang Jiajia listened, the more confused she became. What on earth was he talking about?

She gently bit him with her teeth, "I’ll bite you in half if you speak in riddles again!"

"Ouch, gently!"

Song Guanchao was startled and said, "What I mean is, I’ll pretend to lose the report, then report to the Disciplinary Committee that the research material was stolen."

Liang Jiajia thought for a moment and understood his meaning.

"That’s a good idea!"

"How did you think of it?"

"Someone told me."

"Who? Your secretary?"

"No."

"Then who, tell me quickly, or I’ll bite you!"

"Don’t bite, don’t bite, it was Minister Zhou from the Organization Department."

"Him?" Liang Jiajia wondered, "How would he know about this?"

"I’m not sure. He invited me to dinner today and suddenly asked if I had any conflicts with Mayor Zheng and even guessed how Mayor Zheng would retaliate against me. Then he gave me this suggestion."

He speculated that Minister Zhou probably wanted to use this method to curry favor with Wu Qiangwei.

It had to be said that this time, Song Guanchao owed him a favor.

"Ouch~"

Song Guanchao suddenly gasped as Liang Jiajia wrapped her lips tightly around him, her little tongue moving around, that tight sensation almost made him lose control.

The next day.

Song Guanchao shared the plan with Wu Qiangwei.

Wu Qiangwei’s eyes shone with excitement.

This plan was simply perfect!

"Did you come up with it?"

"Minister Zhou suggested it."

"Minister Zhou?" Wu Qiangwei was stunned, "The Minister from the Organization Department?"

"Yes."

Song Guanchao explained the situation from the previous night, "Minister Zhou likely wanted to make a good impression on you, Secretary."

Wu Qiangwei also felt it was the case.

Otherwise, Minister Zhou would have no reason to do so.

But then she considered another problem.

"How would Minister Zhou know about your issue with Mayor Zheng?"

"It must have been Secretary Sun."

"Secretary Sun?"

"Yes. When I returned the car to Sister Lin at Yunhai Club that day, I deliberately mentioned the matter."

Song Guanchao said, "I wanted to see who was behind Secretary Sun. It seems now it must be Minister Zhou."

Wu Qiangwei was surprised that Secretary Sun turned out to be Minister Zhou’s man.

Does Secretary Lu know about this?

She could not quite decide.

Then she thought, if Secretary Lu’s secretary was arranged by Minister Zhou, could Mayor Zheng’s secretary, Li Jun, also have been deliberately placed by someone?

She felt it was highly likely.

After all, Secretary Lu and Mayor Zheng had been sidelined for a long time and were the easiest to be infiltrated during that period.

Wu Qiangwei asked, "How do you plan to handle the project material?"

"Hold onto it for now," Song Guanchao revealed a sinister smile, "When the time is right, it might just be the final straw to crush Mayor Zheng!"

Since he planned to feign that the project material was stolen, there necessarily had to be a thief.

But this "thief" did not exist, so even if the police were called, no one would be caught.

As for when this thief could be caught, Song Guanchao would decide.

Because the material was in his hands.

Whenever he wished, anyone could be made the thief.

Stealing such confidential project material carried a serious charge.

In other words, Song Guanchao was holding a ticking time bomb in his hands.

And this bomb could be used on someone other than Mayor Zheng.

If someone dared to offend him, he wouldn’t mind deploying it early.

Wu Qiangwei said, "Make sure to hide the material well."

"Secretary, don’t worry, I have experience in this," he reassured.

"Heh, you certainly do," Wu Qiangwei said, "You’re still holding onto the evidence against Li Fuhai, aren’t you?"
