"Pei Zilai?"
Chen Fang asked in surprise.
Xu Jianfeng replied with a slight smile, "Minister Chen hasn't heard of this na? I heard that he ca over from Yong'an Province with you."
Chen Fang, of course, recognized Pei Zilai.
The husband of Li Weiyang.
He seed to rember that Pei Zilai was the acting deputy district chief of Qingling District in Wulan City.
But why him?
Chen Fang nodded and said, "I know him, District Chief Pei is quite enthusiastic. I heard he studied in Wulan City before. The hotel I stayed in on my first day in Wulan City was found by him."
"So Minister Chen has no objections, right?"
asked Xu Jianfeng.
At this mont, Chen Fang's emotions were extrely complex.
Pei Zilai had told him that his move to Wulan City was for an acting position to study.
With his current rank, if he were transferred to Guyang City to take up the position of Secretary of the Economic Developnt Zone, it ant that he would be entering the permanent ranks, basically taking over ng Zheqing's position.
After a pause, he said, "Since Secretary Xu believes this person is suitable, then he must be suitable. The Organization Departnt will coordinate with the City Organization Departnt to investigate."
"Good, then I'll wait for the good news from Minister Chen."
Xu Jianfeng patted Chen Fang on the shoulder and then left.
After returning to his office.
Chen Fang was still pondering this matter.
It so happened that Yu Zhengchuan ca in at this ti.
"A Chuan, help look into sothing,"
Chen Fang suddenly said.
Yu Zhengchuan nodded and said, "Go ahead."
"Go find out what the relationship is between Pei Zilai, the acting deputy district chief of Qingling District, and Xu Jianfeng, and do it as quickly as possible."
"Alright, I'll do it now."
After saying this.
Yu Zhengchuan turned and left.
Before his seat got warm.
The phone began ringing.
Looking at the number, it was surprisingly a call from Ji Yu.
Chen Fang had an inkling.
Picking up the phone, he said, "Mayor Ji, hello."
"Comrade Chen Fang, you really have so clever tactics,"
said Ji Yu in a sardonic tone over the phone.
"Mayor Ji, I'm sowhat at a loss by your words."
"You don't understand? No matter. The Dynamic Fitness Center, co here, and I'll explain everything to you in detail."
After saying this.
The call was disconnected.
From the start of Chen Fang's plan, he had anticipated that Ji Yu would take action sooner or later. Now that the joint investigation team was established, it wouldn't be long before they would arrive. At that point, whether Xue Bo could keep his position was uncertain. With no other option available, Ji Yu could only seek out the instigator.
When he arrived at the fitness center, it was only half-past seven in the morning.
This suggested that Ji Yu must have rushed to Guyang City imdiately after a eting in the city.
At such a critical mont.
She had to strategize for Xue Bo's sake; otherwise, it would truly be a total collapse.
Upon reaching the entrance.
A young woman dressed in a won's suit approached and asked, "Are you Comrade Chen Fang?"
"I am Chen Fang."
"Comrade Chen Fang, hello. I am Mayor Ji's secretary. My na is Lan Yingying. Mayor Ji is already waiting for you. Please follow ."
Guided by Secretary Lan Yingying.
Chen Fang walked down a corridor.
It was then that he realized, the vast fitness center was completely empty.
Soon.
Lan Yingying ca to a halt and pointed at the running area, "Minister Chen, please!"
Chen Fang hesitated, and just as he stepped in, he heard the distinct sound of running.
After a few more steps, he finally noticed a woman jogging on a treadmill in the corner of the running area.
It was Ji Yu.
At that mont, she was wearing a tight sports vest that snugly wrapped around her breasts, bouncing up and down with the rhythm of her jogging—quite a sight for the eyes.
Below, she wore a pair of yoga pants.
They were also tightly hugging her body.
The shapely curves of her buttocks were outlined, and between her legs, a clear crease was defined—perhaps, that's the charm of yoga pants.
"Mayor Ji."
Chen Fang called out.
Ji Yu turned her head for a look and directly hopped off the treadmill.
Wiping the sweat with a towel, she pointed to a bench beside her and said, "Let's sit and talk."
Chen Fang had just sat down.
Ji Yu in front of him started to stretch, and every ti she bent over, the cleavage of her chest beca vaguely visible, with her soft and fair peaks wobbling tantalizingly, seemingly beckoning Chen Fang.
And truth be told, Ji Yu's figure was quite voluptuous.
"Speak up, what do you want?"
Without any pretense, Ji Yu asked bluntly.
Chen Fang smiled and said, "I don't quite understand what Mayor Ji ans."
With a cold laugh, Ji Yu said, "Chen Fang, things have reached this point, there's no point in hiding anything anymore. The special investigation team will arrive in a few hours, Xue Bo is now powerless. With your trap perfectly set, don't you have any demands?"
"Does Mayor Ji an to protect Mayor Xue?"
Chen Fang asked.
Ji Yu replied, "Do you have any other choice to offer?"
With a slight smile, Chen Fang asked, "Hasn't Mayor Ji considered that I might be more valuable than Mayor Xue?"
Once he said this.
Ji Yu's movents stopped instantly.
She sized up Chen Fang seriously, then suddenly sneered and said, "So, this is your aim."
"The fact is just as it is, Mayor Ji is only interested in the interests of the Economic Developnt Zone. What Mayor Xue can do, I, Chen Fang, can do too, and what Mayor Xue can't do, I can also achieve. I believe you can see that," Chen Fang elaborated.
After a pause, Ji Yu said, "But I don't really like working with despicable people."
"A person who climbed up revealing fraudulent acts of bravery, isn't that despicable?"
Chen Fang retorted.
Ji Yu's face was increasingly turning unsightly by the mont.
With a stern expression, she said, "Are you threatening ?"
Chen Fang slowly stood up.
Walking right up to Ji Yu, nose almost to nose.
He said in a cold voice, "Yes, I am threatening you."
"Chen Fang, you're not just playing with fire, you're courting death. Do you really think I, Ji Yu, will fall for this? Don't forget, with your status, you're not qualified to talk to like that."
Clearly, Ji Yu was getting angry.
Chen Fang laughed and said, "Fine, then I won't involve myself in this matter anymore. Since Mayor Ji has such powerful ans, you handle it yourself then. However, I still need to remind Mayor Ji, if Mayor Xue can't protect himself on your side, he might seek help from soone else, just like your forr driver Bai Lang did…"
On the ntion of Bai Lang.
Ji Yu shuddered.
It was also why she hurried to Guyang City to find Chen Fang.
She had run out of options.
The pressure was coming down from the provincial legislature, and even as the mayor, she couldn't interfere rashly.
Chen Fang made sense.
If Xue Bo couldn't find help with her, he would surely seek it from others.
In such a case, Sister Hua would likely be his best option.
"Hehe, Hua Rui won't help him, don't forget, everyone suspects that Xue Bo is behind the death of ng Zheqing," Ji Yu stated.
Chen Fang burst into loud laughter and said, "Mayor Ji, don't you feel guilty saying such a thing? From start to finish, this whole affair was orchestrated by Sister Hua. Do you really think the death of ng Zheqing was an accident?"
