The beautiful CEO falls in love with me
Chapter 45 - 45 43 42 Five Million Dollars

45: Chapter 43 Chapter 42: Five Million Dollars 45: Chapter 43 Chapter 42: Five Million Dollars “Ye…

Ye Chen!” Zhang Yantong’s face turned pale with fright, and her soul seemed to scatter.

She swallowed hard; for the first time, she felt death was so close, almost as if she had taken a tour at the gates of hell.

“Hehe!” Ye Chen chuckled and said, “Don’t chase so hard next time.”

“Captain!” Fang Qin immediately caught up.

“Fang Qin, immediately take your men and arrest Zhang Dadan.

We must not let anyone escape!” Zhang Yantong ordered firmly.

This time, they had to make a statement no matter what.

It was necessary to severely strike the dark forces of Jianghuai City.

To bring a clear blue sky back to Jianghuai City.

“Yes!” Fang Qin nodded, leading a dozen police officers in hot pursuit.

Zhang Yantong let out a long sigh of relief, looked at Ye Chen with gratitude, and said, “Thank you for saving my life just now.

If it wasn’t for you, I probably wouldn’t be in this world anymore!”

“Haha, what are you talking about!” Ye Chen actually blushed.

“I’m truly thankful to you!” Zhang Yantong looked at Ye Chen earnestly and said, “Just now, I thought I was going to die, but then you saved me at the most critical moment.

So, I offer you my sincerest thanks!”

“Really want to thank me?” Ye Chen was startled.

“Uh-huh!” Zhang Yantong nodded.

“Hehe…

sure, I’ll take thanks.

You know, I’m already in my twenties without a wife.

How about…

you just be my wife, and it would be great if you could bear me a big fat son…

then carry on the lineage for the Ye Family…” Ye Chen was dreaming the impossible dream, drooling while he was at it.

“…” Zhang Yantong’s face immediately turned as white as a sheet, and a dark line appeared on her forehead.

Inside, she was infuriated.

Her teeth gritted in anger as she glared at Ye Chen, who was utterly oblivious, still rambling on.

Finally, Zhang Yantong couldn’t contain her inner rage any longer: “Ye Chen, you bastard, I’m going to kill you!”

Suddenly, the dock witnessed such a scene, with Zhang Yantong chasing after Ye Chen with a submachine gun.

Ye Chen was fleeing helter-skelter, looking extremely wretched.

This time, the crackdown was a complete success, with Zhang Dadan and dozens of his minions all captured alive.

This news instantly caused a massive sensation throughout Jianghuai City, with all major underworld powers immediately paying great attention.

From petty thugs to well-established gangs, everyone took notice.

The fall of Zhang Dadan unquestionably served as a barometer for the sentiment of Jianghuai City authorities.

This operation clearly showed Jianghuai City’s tolerance threshold for gangsterism.

Jianghuai City authorities congratulated the success of the operation and demanded that commendations be given to Comrade Zhang Yantong.

Jianghuai City Secretary Jiang Zhonggen made a speech, vowing to eradicate the evil forces from Jianghuai City and return a clean sky to the citizens.

And it was this very speech that endearingly won the hearts of Jianghuai City’s citizens.

“What a good Secretary!

That’s what our great Secretary looks like!”

“Yeah, having such a Secretary is a blessing for our Jianghuai City!”

“That’s right, I propose we sign a petition to commend him!”

The citizens’ fondness for Jiang Zhonggen sparked a wave of positive discussions.

At the City Committee, in Jiang Zhonggen’s office.

“Secretary, it seems this move was the right one!” Secretary Liu chuckled.

“Xiao Liu, there’s much you need to learn!” Jiang Zhonggen laughed and said, “Now that the matter has broken out, all we can do is go with the flow.

Whether Zhang Dadan lives or dies is beyond our control.

He’s a small-fry, not worth much attention.

But, this can also serve as a warning to others!”

“Huh?

If Zhang Dadan is the chicken, who is the monkey?” Secretary Liu was puzzled.

“Hehe, the monkey…

should be calling me about now!” Jiang Zhonggen sat back comfortably, looking at the phone on his desk with a smug expression.

Sure enough, it wasn’t long before the mobile phone rang.

Jiang Zhonggen gave Secretary Liu a knowing glance.

Without hesitation, Secretary Liu stepped forward to answer the call.

“Hello, is this ***?” The voice on the other end belonged to a middle-aged man.

“Oh, I am ***’s Secretary Liu.

May I ask who is calling?” Liu asked with a smile.

“Secretary Liu, ah, haha, I’ve long admired you, I’m Yan Bu’er, the general manager of Honghai Building Materials Company!” Though Yan Bu’er’s public identity was the general manager of a building materials company, in reality, he was the boss of the Flame Dragon Gang, controlling the entire building materials market in Jianghuai City.

It was a perfect monopoly business; how could he not make a fortune?

Yan Bu’er’s business not only enveloped the whole of Jianghuai City but also did not spare the surrounding cities.

“Just a moment, please!” Secretary Liu covered the mouthpiece and glanced back at Jiang Zhonggen, who nodded.

Secretary Liu hurriedly bowed and handed over the phone.

Jiang Zhonggen intentionally held the phone for more than ten seconds without speaking, then, when the timing felt right, he began, “Hello…

This is Jiang Zhonggen!”

“Haha, Secretary, how have you been recently?” laughed Yan Bu’er.

“I’m not sure if you’re free tomorrow evening?

I was thinking of hosting a dinner for the City Secretary.

Recently you’ve been working so hard; you deserve some relaxation, a balance of work and leisure, right?”

“Well…

I’m afraid that might be difficult!” Jiang Zhonggen hesitated slightly.

“Ah, my dear City Secretary, you’re working tirelessly for the nation and its people, a little relaxation is appropriate.

As a common man, I don’t have much to offer you, just inviting you for a simple meal.

Please accept my invitation!” Yan Bu’er’s words were exceedingly tactful.

“Alright, you said it now, just a simple home-cooked meal!” Jiang Zhonggen chuckled.

“Don’t worry, it will be absolutely just a simple home-cooked meal!” Jiang Zhonggen nodded.

…

On Jianghuai TV Station’s evening news, the anchor spoke with justified indignation, condemning those underworld organizations that, using improper, malicious, and illegal methods, make exorbitant profits without regard for the people’s welfare.

By employing violence, threats, harassment, and other means, they brazenly engage in extortion, market bullying, group fights, provocation, and intentional harm, gravely disrupting the economic and social order.

The TV station also broadcasted a speech by Jiang Zhonggen, calling on the police to intensify the crackdown on the underworld and requesting all departments and units to cooperate with the severe strike against the underworld by law enforcement.

Finally came the TV station’s interview with Zhang Yantong.

As the spokesperson for Jianghuai City’s police image and especially the hero of this operation, she naturally had more authority to speak.

The host smiled graciously at Zhang Yantong and asked, “Captain Zhang, I heard that the transaction amount this time reached five million dollars, is that right?”

“Yes, the other party purchased a large amount of drugs in a wide variety.

And, they were quite heavy!” Zhang Yantong nodded.

“So, I heard that there were several dozen underworld members that night, and everyone had a submachine gun, right?” the host expressed in shock.

“Um, the opponents were equipped with four rifles from the former Soviet Union; very powerful.

However, they were quickly subdued under our police’s encirclement!” Zhang Yantong smiled timidly, looking somewhat shy in front of the camera—this very shyness completely captivated the eyes of the men watching on their TV screens.

Especially the thugs snacking at the night market, each munching on barbecue and sipping chilled beer, were suddenly rendered speechless when they saw Zhang Yantong on the television.

“Holy shit, when did such a beautiful police officer appear?”

“Yeah, I might really commit a crime just for this police officer!”

“That’s right, damn it, we really have to pull something off tonight!”

Tragically, as soon as Zhang Yantong appeared on television, the frequency of minor crimes in Jianghuai City instantly rose, and every thug caught asked the same question: “Where is the team leader of your Criminal Police Team?

Why didn’t she come to arrest me?”

Because of this, Zhang Yantong was quite troubled; she didn’t expect her appearance to lead to an increase in minor crimes in Jianghuai City in such a short period.

Zhang Yantong was quite downcast for a while.

Fang Qin hurriedly consoled her, “Captain Zhang, don’t be angry; it’s not your fault!”

“Um, I know!” Zhang Yantong sighed and said, “Last night, cases of theft, robbery, and fraud actually increased by thirty percent.

It’s simply unbelievable!”

“Hehe!

What can we do about it!” Fang Qin laughed bitterly for a while; she really wanted to tell Captain Zhang that the detention centre was already full.

But after thinking it over, she decided not to mention it.

…

Elsewhere, Ye Chen was ready to depart with more than a dozen men, and Li Ruo, in a white professional outfit, came downstairs with Lin Ziwen.

A black Lincoln was parked downstairs, flanked by two BMWs in front, and followed by a Mercedes in the rear.

Over a dozen bodyguards in black suits, each with a low-frequency communicator in their ear, looked extremely professional under Ye Chen’s command as they swept their sharp gazes around the area.

Ye Chen approached with professionalism, opened the car door for Li Ruo.

Li Ruo gave Ye Chen a fleeting look, then got into the car; Lin Ziwen winked at Ye Chen with a playful smile, then followed suit.

Ye Chen, caught by Lin Ziwen’s smile, paused for a moment, then shut the car door.

“Everyone, get in the cars!” Ye Chen waved his hand.

Woosh…

All personnel promptly got into the vehicles; the BMW took the lead, the Lincoln began to slowly move.

Ye Chen, in the last Mercedes, was in charge of the overall command.

Today’s market debut was no small matter; it was a symbol of Tianya Group’s transformation and the first step into the real estate market for the group.

What consequences it would trigger was unknown to anyone, let alone what underhand tricks opponents might play.
