Chapter 429: Chapter 429

Four days ago, Wang Shujing’s bank account suddenly received a deposit of 2 million.

Similarly, four days ago, Huang Min’s bank account also received a deposit of 2 million.

Song Guanchao carefully recalled, he had looked over the bank statements of Hou Wen’s brother-in-law and Hou Wen’s mistress.

There were no 2 million transactions.

However, these two individuals’ bank accounts did indeed have such a sum added at this time.

Despite the lack of corroborating evidence, intuition told Song Guanchao that these two amounts were definitely arranged by Hou Wen.

As for where the money came from, that would be easy to investigate.

"You help me find someone to check out the source of these funds for these two people."

Song Guanchao said, pointing to the names of these two individuals.

Zeng Li cocked her head to look, took out her phone to take a picture, and sent it off to someone.

About half an hour later, Zeng Li’s phone chimed.

She glanced at it and said, "It was a cash deposit."

"Cash?"

"Mm."

This further confirmed Song Guanchao’s suspicion.

This cash had absolutely come from Hou Wen.

It showed that Hou Wen was very cautious.

And he had overlooked something.

That was, Hou Wen, who had held a high position for many years and was a major corrupt official, would usually deposit his money in bank cards but would also keep a portion of cash in reserve.

Besides cash, there would probably also be items like gold, antiques, and calligraphy and paintings that could be quickly liquidated.

So the question arose, why would he give money to these two people?

Given money, there must be something he needs them to do.

But why, out of all people, the two chiefs of the financial bureau?

Also, with Hou Wen’s status and power in Dujiang City, if there really was something he needed his subordinates to do, it was just a matter of giving an order.

Why would he need to use money to solve it?

Unless the task was very difficult!

Or perhaps, the two chiefs of the financial bureau were unwilling to do it!

So, he had to pave the way with money.

"What else can’t you figure out?" Zeng Li saw his furrowed brow, asked curiously, wanting to offer him some clarification.

Song Guanchao said, "I’m thinking about why he’s giving them money."

Zeng Li chuckled.

"Why are you laughing?"

"Laughing at how silly you are, you’ve been in the system for so long your brain has become rigid."

"How so?"

"Let me ask you, if I were just an ordinary person and suddenly wanted to give you money, what do you think that would be for?"

"Because you’re lusting for my body?"

"Ptui, ptui, ptui!" Zeng Li said, "It’s because I want you to do something for me!"

Song Guanchao said, "I know he wants these two to do something; what I can’t understand is what he wants them to do."

Zeng Li shook her head: "For that, you need to ask the people involved."

Song Guanchao gave a bitter smile, if it were that easy, he wouldn’t have to rack his brains.

At this moment, Zeng Li’s phone rang.

"It’s Sister Weiwei’s call." Zeng Li grabbed her phone, "Sister Weiwei, what’s up? Now? I’m fine, what could be wrong with me, sure, I’ll come over now."

After hanging up, Song Guanchao asked, "Does the Secretary have something for you?"

"Mm, she asked me to go to the bathhouse for a soak."

Bathhouse...

Waves stirred in Song Guanchao’s heart.

He couldn’t help but think of the time in the bathhouse, when he lay on the same bed with Wu Qiangwei...

He cleared his throat and said, "I was planning to see the Secretary too."

"Why are you looking for Sister Weiwei? It’s the weekend, we’re not at work."

He flicked the documents in his hand: "To report on work."

"Then let’s go together."

"You go first, I’ll call her later. After all, it’s rare for the Secretary to have time to herself; best not to disturb if it’s not necessary."

"I won’t be a bother, come over and we can take a bath together. There’s mixed-gender bathing at the bathhouse."

Zeng Li said, "That’s how it is, I’ll go over first. After I meet Sister Weiwei, I’ll send you a message, and then you call. I’ll talk to her on the side, and Sister Weiwei won’t refuse then."

She wanted to bathe with Song Guanchao.

Song Guanchao pretended to hesitate for a few seconds before finally nodding, "Okay."

After leaving the restaurant, Zeng Li left first.

Song Guanchao sat in the car waiting, and after about half an hour, Zeng Li sent a message.

He immediately called Wu Qiangwei.

"Secretary, are you busy?"

"..." Wu Qiangwei had just changed into the bathhouse attire and asked, "What’s the matter?"

"It’s important."

"Then come over."

"Okay."

"I’m not at home."

"Ah? Not at home? Are you out then? If so, let’s forget it, I’ll come over when you’re back."

Song Guanchao was very understanding, but inside, he felt a bit anxious.

This tactic of advancing by retreating was now up to Wu Qiangwei to agree or not.

"Just come over," Wu Qiangwei said. "Remember the last bathhouse?"

"Bathhouse?"

"Yes, I’m here with Zeng Li. Call me when you arrive."

After hanging up, Song Guanchao felt excited and expectant.

In less than twenty minutes, he arrived at the bathhouse.

After paying, he changed into bathing attire, grabbed his phone, and entered, making the call.

"Secretary, I’ve arrived."

"I’m in Room 108."

"Okay."

He found Room 108, which was a private room.

Knock knock.

"Come in."

Pushing the door open, Song Guanchao discovered that half of the room was an indoor space, and the other half was an outdoor mini hot spring.

Wu Qiangwei and Zeng Li were soaking in the mini hot spring, only their heads showing.

He felt his throat go dry and walked over slowly.

Looking down, he noticed that both women were only wearing underwear.

Apart from sensitive areas, everything else was in plain view.

He quickly diverted his gaze, coughed lightly, and said, "Secretary, I’ll wait outside for you."

"No, let’s talk right here," Wu Qiangwei said. "Xiao Li, step out for a moment, I need to discuss something with him."

"Oh," Zeng Li drew out the sound, somewhat resentfully.

She had originally wanted to go to the mixed bath with Wu Qiangwei, but Wu Qiangwei said that there was an important matter later on, and had rented a private room.

Not being able to bathe with Song Guanchao, and now being sent out, made her a bit gloomy.

She stood up from the hot spring, originally wanting to flirt with Song Guanchao, but fearing Wu Qiangwei would notice, she could only obediently grab her clothes to put them on, not even daring to make eye contact, before hastily leaving.

After she left, Wu Qiangwei perfunctorily asked, "Want to come down and soak for a bit?"

"Sure."

Song Guanchao knew it was just a polite gesture, so he didn’t refuse.

Wu Qiangwei hadn’t really expected him to accept, so she was stupefied for a moment.

Not until she saw Song Guanchao stripping off his clothes and stepping into the hot spring in his underwear, did she blush and turn her face away.

"Ah~"

The hot spring enveloped him, making Song Guanchao comfortably let out a moan.

The hot spring pool in the private room was about three meters square, not very spacious, and their legs could touch if stretched out.

Wu Qiangwei and he each stayed at one end of the pool, maintaining distance.

She calmed herself and said, "Tell me."

Song Guanchao simply shared his findings with her and also expressed his doubts.

"Why the financial bureau and not some other department?"

Discussing the important matter, both of them automatically ignored the somewhat awkward situation of the moment.

Wu Qiangwei pondered for a while before suddenly saying, "He’s transferring assets!"
