~7 min read 1,381 words

Brother, eat a steamed bun. Shi Yong took out a steamed bun and gave it to me to eat.

Go ahead and eat, I don't like steamed buns; I'll go have some porridge later. I said.

Steamed buns are great—lots of meat and oil, so fragrant. Shi Yong shoved the steamed bun into his mouth.

Shi Yong, Ruan Wei will contact you later. He wants to ask you about the details you learned yesterday. I told Shi Yong.

Ruan Wei, that Ruan Wei. Shi Yong was a bit dazed.

It's that Ruan Wei who used to be with Liu Shiru; I released him at the Qi He mine. Don't you remember? I told Shi Yong.

Now I remember—why is he contacting me? Shi Yong asked.

He's going to Xue County to secretly investigate Cui Chengshan. I said.

He's going to Xue County—what does it matter? He's just a little guy, not even as tall as Wu Dalang. Shi Yong looked down on Ruan Wei.

Back at Da Heng Group, Ruan Wei had once made Shi Yong lose face.

Shi Yong surely remembers that.

I laughed: "Shi Yong, it's best if no one knows about him. That way, even if something happens, it won't affect us."

Why bother with that? Just go straight ahead—kidnap Cui Chengshan, then find Cui Rulin and say if you keep causing trouble, I'll make your son see King Yama. Guaranteed nothing will happen. Shi Yong said while eating a steamed bun.

Then why didn't you kidnap Cui Chengshan yesterday, but instead drank with him?

If you don't give the order, I wouldn't dare; but since you've given the order, I'll go to Xue County right now and kidnap Cui Chengshan. Shi Yong said after swallowing a steamed bun.

Shi Yong, cut the nonsense, hurry to Xue County; Ruan Wei will contact you later—tell him what you know in detail.

You don't need to ask about anything else. We'll wait for Ruan Wei to get the evidence before we say more.

Trust Ruan Wei, Brother—I'm truly impressed by you. A guy not much taller than a bean sprout can get things done. All right, I'll finish my steamed bun and go to Xue County; then I'll point out that woman to Ruan Wei. If Ruan Wei fails, don't blame me. Shi Yong said unhappily.

Don't worry, it's not related to you; you're already excellent. You're the most awesome man in Zaocheng. I praised Shi Yong.

Shi Yong, while eating, gave an embarrassed laugh.

Shi Yong left after finishing his steamed bun.

He went to Xue County to meet up with Ruan Wei.

They didn't go together.

I won't go anywhere; I'll just wait for news in the hotel.

I sat alone in the hotel room smoking, thinking about past events.

More than twenty years ago, I also did this kind of thing,

namely, at Wu Xiezi's behest, I went to monitor the affair between Xia Yuan and Fan Shazi.

Using mi mi incense, I dazed Xia Yuan and Fan Shazi,

then put them both on the bed and took photos,

scattered the photos all over Lanling County town, so everyone under heaven would know.

Finally, I sent Fan Shazi to prison.

Alas, I never expected that twenty years later I'd still be doing this kind of thing—only I'm not doing it myself anymore, and I'm ordering others to do it.

What difference does it make? Maybe this is fate.

I sighed to myself.

But I can't not do it.

After all, if Li Ming's matter blows up, it's bad for us.

As soon as Li Ming comes out, he must be put to work; only then can he settle down.

I thought to myself.

Three days passed quickly.

For these three days I ate and stayed in the hotel, not going out.

Shi Yong also didn't return from Xue County.

Ruan Wei also didn't call me.

I was just waiting for news.

Because I believe Ruan Wei can accomplish this, I don't need to give too many orders.

Just let him free rein.

After three days, I started to feel anxious; Ruan Wei hasn't replied at all. What happened?

I took my phone, found Ruan Wei's number, and wanted to call to ask,

but I was afraid it might disturb him.

So I just walked around the room holding my phone, going in circles.

That's just how I am: when something comes up, I like to overthink and fear trouble.

The older I get, the smaller my courage.

Just then, a knocking sound came from outside the room,

which startled me.

I hurried to open the door,

After opening the door, I found Ruan Wei standing at the doorway.

After Ruan Wei saw me,

his first words were,

"Brother Zhao, we've obtained the evidence."

I grabbed Ruan Wei's hand,

"Brother, thanks for your hard work—come inside quickly, sit down, and tell me how you got it."

I let Ruan Wei into the room.

Ruan Wei took out a mobile phone from a bag,

He opened it and let me see,

"This is a video of Cui Chengshan sleeping with Li Jia. We secretly filmed it in the Xueguo Dajiudian."

Cui Chengshan doesn't care at all about his affair with this woman,

They openly live together in the hotel.

I had my men hide in the hotel room and secretly record them with a mobile phone while they were playing poker.

"You can take a look; you can clearly see both of their faces."

Ruan Wei opened the video on the phone,

Sure enough, I saw the two of them in a passionate state.

I could clearly see Cui Chengshan's appearance,

That woman is really attractive.

Although I haven't met her in person, watching the video I felt that this woman truly captivates men.

I turned off the video,

I'll leave it for Shi Yong to watch; he has such a hobby.

"Ruan Wei said, 'Zhaodage, this video is just one of them.'"

We also arrested that woman and interrogated her through the night.

She admitted it herself,

Her affair with Cui Chengshan. We also recorded audio.

This woman is not only Cui Chengshan's mistress,

She also hid illicit funds for Cui Chengshan; Cui Chengshan's bribery, she has records of.

This is a record she wrote herself.

"Her phone also contains her chat log with Cui Chengshan."

After saying that, Ruan Wei took out the woman's phone and the record book.

I opened the record book, and indeed it detailed the names and amounts of gifts given to Cui Chengshan.

The WeChat chat log on the phone shows that she and Cui Chengshan chatted very explicitly.

Seeing it made my heart pound,

I felt too embarrassed to look.

With this evidence, no matter how capable Cui Chengshan is, he cannot prove his innocence.

"I said to Ruan Wei, 'Li Jia, how did you handle her?'"

"Ruan Wei said, 'This woman, I have my subordinates detain her in a guesthouse in Xue County. Shi Yong says he's familiar with that guesthouse.'"

"I guarantee no one will find out."

"Does Cui Chengshan know about this?" I asked.

"He doesn't know; he went to the city for a meeting today and didn't return to Xue County." Ruan Wei said.

"Great, Ruan Wei, are you going back to Xue County now?"

"Wait for my notice; if Li Jia needs to be sent to Xin Cheng, you send her over. I'm leaving now with these things. Damn, Cui Chengshan is finished." I said happily.

I left my room and hurried to the city to find Tian Shi to discuss what to do.

Ruan Wei also went to Xue County.

Upon arriving in the city,

I directly called Tian Shi's mobile phone,

but no one answered.

No need to ask; Tian Shi is definitely in a meeting.

So I looked up Secretary Qin's phone number,

I dialed it,

"Hello, Mr. Zhao."

"Hello, Secretary Qin. I'm looking for Tian Shi to report an important matter. Can you notify him?"

"Well, Tian Shi is currently holding a meeting for all county-level officials in the city; could you wait a moment?" Secretary Qin said.

"Secretary Qin, we can't wait; please notify Tian Shi immediately to see me. This matter is truly important." I said in an unrefusable tone.
