Stunning Dragon Wife
Chapter 227 - 226

Chapter 227: Chapter 226

By this time, Hu Shengli’s tone had already become somewhat impatient.

"Elder Ma, what’s the matter with you? We’re old acquaintances, are you playing dumb with me on purpose?"

"She says her name is Jiang Man. If you don’t admit she’s one of your people, don’t blame me for detaining her without mercy."

"Jiang Man?"

At the other end of the phone, Ma Zhiming’s head buzzed once again upon hearing this name.

As the township head, he had also participated in the welcome event for a deeply-connected female vice-chairperson sent by the county last time, and had the fortune to shake hands with her. Although that woman was just a vice-chairperson, everyone treated her with utmost respect. Later, he finally learned that her father was a big shot in the city.

For him, a small town leader, such a family was like a towering tree.

He didn’t even dare entertain the thought of ingratiating himself with Jiang Man because she was too high to reach. Who would have thought that Jiang Man would take the initiative to come to Qingshan Town? Yet judging by Hu Shengli’s tone, it seemed like things weren’t going well.

"Hu Shengli, I warn you, don’t mess around, or you’ll have to face the consequences."

Ma Zhiming shouted excitedly.

Yet Hu Shengli just laughed.

"Hmph, I knew she was one of yours, Elder Ma. I know you’re not happy with the Wang family, but you also know that I’m buddies with Wang Dalong. Just do me a favor and stay out of this, okay? Did you send this woman? How about I handle this, alright?"

Before Ma Zhiming from the other end could reply,

Jiang Man snatched the cellphone from Hu Shengli’s ear and spoke assertively into the phone,

"Chairman of Ma Xiang, I give you three minutes to appear before my eyes. If you’re even a second late, you will be responsible for the consequences."

After that, she hung up the phone directly.

Then she threw Hu Shengli’s cellphone onto a nearby table.

Her severe demeanor and bold stance left everyone in the interrogation room stunned.

"Sis, what’s the background of this woman? She’s so fierce. Not only did she dare to argue with Chief Hu, but she was also so harsh to the township leader?"

Wu Xiaoru shook her head, indicating ignorance.

Wang Xiaolong was somewhat puzzled.

"Uncle Hu, who exactly is this woman?"

"Wouldn’t we have brought unnecessary trouble upon ourselves?"

Hu Shengli, known for his domineering and arrogant character, having grown used to doing as he pleased in Qingshan Town, was slightly annoyed by Wang Xiaolong’s words.

"What’s the matter, Little Long, do you doubt your Uncle Hu’s abilities? This girl is just a naive newbie, clearly just started working for the people."

"Don’t mind her. It’s Ma Zhiming that you have to worry about. Your Wang family’s domineering business has upset him quite a bit. Looks like he wants to use this situation to make a point. When he arrives, give him some face, and I’ll put in a good word. After all, his family pulls the strings in Qingshan Town; it’s not so good to upset him."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaolong nodded in agreement.

In everyone’s eyes, Jiang Man was just a rookie clerk from the Qingshan Town government, seemingly dispatched by Ma Zhiming to stir up trouble.

Little did they know that disaster was already upon them.

"Release him first."

Jiang Man looked at Zhang Xiaoshan, handcuffed to the chair, with a hint of distress.

Although she appeared cold, she was actually a person with deep emotions. After she gave herself to Zhang Xiaoshan, even though the disparity in status and identity made it impossible for her to confirm a relationship with Zhang Xiaoshan, her heart had already reserved a significant place for him.

In other words, regardless of outward appearances, in her heart, she had subconsciously considered Zhang Xiaoshan her man.
