Chapter 91: Chapter 91

"Sis, what’s he doing here?"

Wu Ming leaned in to ask.

Wu Qiangwei quickly hid the small umbrella behind her but Wu Ming still saw it.

"Damn," Wu Ming held back his words for a while before blurting out five words, "He’s really damn considerate!"

Wu Qiangwei’s gaze swept over him like a knife, and Wu Ming immediately coughed to change the subject, "Right, something happened tonight."

"Speak."

Wu Qiangwei walked toward the room, with Wu Ming following behind, "Some cops were giving Song Guanchao trouble."

"Continue." She entered the room and tossed the condom into the bedside drawer.

Wu Ming detailed the events of the evening.

In conclusion, he said, "Those cops were clearly targeting Song Guanchao, and they kept following him."

"Sis, should we have Uncle Hong investigate?"

"No need," Wu Qiangwei said, "He can handle it himself."

"You have that much confidence in him?"

"You can leave now."

"Sis, you are so heartless..."

...

Song Guanchao arrived outside the police station to wait for Liang Jiajia.

Wu Ming, that sissy, had put him in a really bad mood.

He couldn’t figure out what Secretary Wu was thinking to let a sissy bewitch him so thoroughly.

The mind of a woman was truly a mystery to him.

Liang Jiajia seemed especially busy tonight, not entering the police station in a squad car until nearly eleven o’clock.

"Jiajia, go home and rest early," Chief Qi said.

"Okay."

Liang Jiajia looked outside, and as Song Guanchao approached, she asked, "Was there a case tonight?"

It was nearing midnight, and still being out in the field was tough indeed.

"Yes."

Liang Jiajia sat in the passenger seat, closing her eyes to rest.

Song Guanchao drove home, and after Liang Jiajia took a shower, she flopped onto the bed, letting out a contented sigh.

"Let me give you a massage." Song Guanchao flipped her over, sat on her slender waist, and began kneading her shoulders with just the right amount of pressure.

As he massaged, he became restless and lay on Liang Jiajia’s back, his knees wedging into the gap between her legs, parting them.

He pressed gently against her raised buttocks.

Liang Jiajia let out a moan.

The sound grew louder with the increasing intensity of Song Guanchao’s movements.

In a high-pitched, prolonged moan, the storm abruptly ceased.

Song Guanchao held her in his arms, pecking at her flushed and satisfied face, "Why were you so busy tonight?"

"It’s that gun misplacement case from last time."

Liang Jiajia said, "A week has gone by, and the gun still hasn’t been found. It’s already known at the provincial level. Director Qin directly had my dad... Mr. Liang sign a military order, if the gun isn’t found within half a month, Mr. Liang’s position will be stripped!"

Song Guanchao said, "Mr. Liang is a deputy director after all. Isn’t Director Qin being too harsh?"

He was aware that Liang Jiajia’s father was the Executive Deputy Director of the Police Department, responsible for daily management and operational deployment, overseeing criminal detection, drug control, smuggling, and forensic evidence.

Besides the deputy director who also serves as political commissar, Mr. Liang had the most power, being the third-in-command at the city bureau, a true authority holding actual power.

Liang Jiajia: "Mr. Liang comes from a military background, he’s the technical backbone of the city bureau, and he reached his current position by always being at the forefront. But such a person doesn’t fare well in politics, and definitely not as quickly promoted as those who rely on relationships and connections."

"Don’t let his title of Executive Deputy Director deceive you; whenever there’s a major case in the city, he’s always the first one to be pulled out to take the blame."

"Moreover, if this case isn’t solved within the deadline, Director Qin will certainly use it as an excuse to push him into early retirement."

Song Guanchao did not voice his opinion.

He had never dealt with Mr. Liang, but to be able to raise a daughter like Liang Jiajia, he suspected that Mr. Liang was also someone with a strong sense of justice.

Holding onto one’s initial convictions at the deputy director level was rare.

Yet in Lingjiang’s murky political waters, a person like him was doomed to advance no further.

When murkiness became the norm, innocence was a sin in itself.

Director Liang, an able, firm, and ambitious police officer, was out of place in Lingjiang.

Similar to him was the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, Secretary Wu.

He put his arms around Liang Jiajia’s shoulders, "The case will be solved. You have to believe in Director Liang."

Liang Jiajia closed her eyes and said, "I’m tired."

The next day.

Song Guanchao still arrived early at Wu Qiangwei’s apartment.

At six-thirty, Wu Qiangwei changed into her jogging attire and looked around. She didn’t see Song Guanchao.

When she entered the park to jog, Song Guanchao finally appeared in the distance, following behind her.

The pretty boy Feng Sheng arrived as scheduled, and Song Guanchao had no expression on his face.

Not until Wu Qiangwei finished jogging and he saw her go upstairs did Song Guanchao turn away and leave.

The city leaders start work early, normally at nine o’clock, but the leaders usually arrive half an hour early.

When Wu Qiangwei arrived at her office, Song Guanchao was already sitting in the outer room.

Seeing her, he smiled, "Secretary, good morning."

"Uh-huh." Wu Qiangwei’s expression was as indifferent as usual.

Song Guanchao pulled out his phone and made a call to Lu Feng, "Madman, help me check on someone."

"Damn, boss, are you really a secretary at the City Committee? Why are you always checking on people?"

Lu Feng was shocked.

You’re a big-shot secretary at the City Committee, today checking on this person, tomorrow on another.

Those who know think you’re a secretary; those who don’t would think you’re a spy.

"Cut the crap. I’ll send you the information in a bit."

He sent the information about Wu Ming over.

He wanted to see just who this Wu Ming was.

If nothing unexpected, he should be someone placed by Director Qin.

Secretary Wu is really confused, isn’t she? Such obvious deliberate closeness, yet she can’t see through it?

He shook his head, feeling for the first time that this young secretary was somewhat incompetent.

"Secretary Song."

Director Liu ran over, holding a cup of coffee in his hand, "I bought an extra coffee this morning, Secretary Song, I hope you won’t disdain it."

Song Guanchao looked at the coffee in front of him, then back at Director Liu.

He had almost forgotten about this sly fox.

Which faction was this guy from?

Although he worked for the comprehensive department of the City Committee, that didn’t necessarily mean he was one of their people.

Leaders of various bureaus and committees liked to pull people over to their side and plant informants everywhere.

When Tian Xue was a secretary, he did all sorts of things to please and get close to her.

The very first day Wu Qiangwei rented a place outside, the news leaked.

If he said Director Liu wasn’t involved, Song Guanchao wouldn’t believe it.

Being watched by him made Director Liu very uncomfortable, "Secretary Song, I should get going. Take your time drinking. If you need anything, just command me."

"Director Liu," Song Guanchao called after him, his smile beaming, "Your monthly salary isn’t a small amount, is it?"

Director Liu, puzzled, forced a smile, "Secretary Song overestimates me. I’m just a small-time director. A few thousand a month is only just enough to make ends meet."

"Then Director Liu’s family must be quite wealthy."

"I’m from an ordinary family, from the countryside. I even applied for a student loan to go to university."

"How many years have you been with the City Committee, Director Liu?"

"It’s only my second year this year."

Only two years?

This was actually quite surprising for Song Guanchao.

"Before being transferred to the City Committee, where did Director Liu work?"

"I used to be a teacher. I was seconded here, and my official position is still at the school."

Song Guanchao took a sip of coffee and said indifferently, "That gold bracelet of Tian Xue’s, it wasn’t cheap, was it?"

Director Liu’s body tensed up instantly, and a pang of anxiety hit his heart.
