Chapter 586: Find Him One Step Earlier!

~8 min read 1,540 words

Chen Fei walked into the office and said with a fawning smile, "Director Wang, do you have any instructions?"

Wang Guopeng said, "Are you in contact with Zhang Jinan?"

Chen Fei's expression changed slightly, and he shook his head with a bitter smile, "Ever since he fled, I haven't been able to contact him. I'll be honest with you, he borrowed a million from me a while ago. I know he's on the run, and I'm more anxious than anyone."

Wang Guopeng warned in a deep voice, "I just received news that the County Public Security Bureau is already tracking Zhang Jinan's whereabouts. If Zhang Jinan is caught and brought back, I'm afraid many things will be exposed, including the problems at your company."

A look of gravity appeared in Chen Fei's eyes, and he probed, "Director Wang, please point me in the right direction."

Wang Guopeng said, "You must find him one step earlier than the police."

A cold look appeared in Chen Fei's eyes, "Don't worry, I know what to do. However, I have no leads right now."

Wang Guopeng handed a slip of paper to Chen Fei, "This was given to me by someone inside the County Public Security Bureau; I believe it will certainly be of help to you."

Chen Fei opened the slip of paper, and a sharp look appeared in his eyes.

Wang Guopeng continued, "By the way, how are things being handled over at Xiaoguo Village?"

Chen Fei said confidently, "The few people who were caught are trustworthy. After this incident, that old thing Guo Shulin certainly won't dare to spout nonsense anymore."

Wang Guopeng breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as it's handled well. The New Year is almost here. Everyone should just stay steady!"

After getting off work, Wang Guopeng drove his sedan to a small villa located by the side of Mingyue Lake in Hanzhou.

Just as Wang Guopeng got out of the car, a petite and pretty woman walked out of the villa, took Wang Guopeng's arm, and leaned her face against his shoulder.

The woman led Wang Guopeng to the second-floor terrace, where a table of delicacies was set under the sunroom; the sunset glow burned the horizon a deep red, and one could see the flickering fishing lights on the lake, while tourists on the fishing boats docked at the shore were endlessly tasting the delicious catch.

Wang Guopeng actually really wanted to take the woman to the shore, walk onto a fishing boat, and eat some lake delicacies.

If anyone else saw a beautiful young beauty by his side, they would certainly show looks of envy.

It is said that a beautiful woman is a man's best cosmetic, and this saying is not false at all.

Of course, Wang Guopeng would absolutely never do such a flashy thing.

He is a person of status and reputation in Suiyuan; if he appeared in public in a high-profile manner, there would be a high probability of being recognized.

After eating, Wang Guopeng carried the woman into the room...

The woman's surname is Guo, and she is an art teacher at a primary school in Hanzhou; she is lively and knows how to act coquettishly.

Once, while eating, a leader in the education system brought her to the table; at the time, she took the initiative to ask Wang Guopeng for his contact information, and later they had a private meal together. That day, both of them drank alcohol, and the woman threw herself into Wang Guopeng's arms.

After a period of contact, Wang Guopeng gradually came to understand her.

Her family is quite ordinary, and her parents had high expectations for her. After reaching university, many of her female classmates had good family conditions and often consumed luxury goods and bought high-end clothes, which greatly stimulated her.

Because of her constant need for material things, she was so proactive toward Wang Guopeng.

Wang Guopeng had also thought about ending the relationship with her, but having met many women, none seemed to make him as happy and relaxed as the woman before him, so the relationship had been maintained, and when he had needs, he would have secret trysts with her.

However, this recent period of time has made Wang Guopeng feel uneasy.

So Wang Guopeng decided that he still needed to find an opportunity to put an end to the relationship with her.

Although she could bring him happiness, he knew that if he were trapped, he would be doomed forever, and these joys would also vanish completely.

Of course, the beautiful Teacher Guo was completely unaware of Wang Guopeng's thoughts.

She suddenly grabbed Wang Guopeng's arm, "Lao Wang, why don't we go for a walk by the lake? I've bought this villa for so many years, and I've always walked alone; I often feel quite lonely."

Wang Guopeng pulled away Teacher Guo's hand, "Stop messing around! In a while, let's go travel to Yun Province together, and I'll properly spend time with you, how about that?"

Teacher Guo suddenly hugged Wang Guopeng's neck, "This isn't the first time you've brushed me off. Every time I'm with you, I feel like a thief. To satisfy your requirements, I can even marry someone I don't love. I've given so much for you, and you can't even satisfy my request to walk by the lake with you?"

Wang Guopeng gently broke free from Teacher Guo's arm, "Xiao Guo, you are very sensible and should know what I am worried about. For so many years, I have always treated you well, and I thought we had reached a tacit understanding. By bringing this up again, aren't you trying to create conflict?"

Teacher Guo knew in her heart that Wang Guopeng was the turning point of her fate and also the great tree of her life.

She had been with him for so many years without status or title, always responding to his every request, but what she received was very limited.

For example, although Wang Guopeng bought her a house and a car, he always kept a hand in it and only paid the down payment.

Moreover, Teacher Guo felt that if she could legitimately become Wang Guopeng's wife.

She wouldn't have to be secretive and could live the life she dreamed of.

"That's because I love you too much. I want to be with you forever."

A look of astonishment appeared in Wang Guopeng's eyes, and he thought to himself, did Xiao Guo take the wrong medicine today? He and she were just putting on an act, each getting what they needed; she wouldn't be trying to force him to marry her, would she?

Wang Guopeng told himself in his heart that starting from today, he must completely cut off the relationship with her.

"I still have some things to handle and need to return to Suiyuan. You stay here tonight, and I will have the driver take you back tomorrow morning."

Teacher Guo sensed a crisis and said with red eyes, "I won't allow you to leave. You are a great Director; you should just have your subordinates handle things."

Wang Guopeng was eager to get away and patted Teacher Guo's back with a smile, "I really have an urgent matter. We'll meet again in two days, and I promise to give you a gift."

Teacher Guo acted coquettishly, "Are you leaving just because you've had your way with me? I refuse to let you leave today."

Wang Guopeng smiled helplessly, "I am always interested in you. I really have an urgent matter."

At this moment, his phone rang.

Wang Guopeng, as if grabbing a straw to save his life, spread his hands helplessly toward Teacher Guo, "I really did steal some time to see you. Look, the call is urging me. Be sensible, be good!"

Teacher Guo leaned over to take a look and saw the label 'Xiao Chen' on the display screen, which was the only reason she let Wang Guopeng go.

"I'll allow you to answer the phone, but if it's not an important matter, you must stay the night."

Wang Guopeng made a shushing gesture toward Teacher Guo, then lowered his voice and answered the call, "Hello, is there something?"

Chen Fei's voice came through, "Director Wang, I just received news that the police already have a lead and have tracked Zhang Jinan to Yu Province."

Wang Guopeng gasped, "Take a few people to Yu Province, find Zhang Jinan, and resolve this matter completely."

Chen Fei said softly, "Understood, Director Wang. I will handle this matter cleanly, so don't you worry."

Wang Guopeng gave a grunt of acknowledgment, "Alright, the problem is that serious! I'm heading back right now!"

Chen Fei: "???"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Guopeng kissed Teacher Guo on the forehead.

"My dear, I really have to go back to handle an urgent matter. To express my apologies, I've decided to buy you a bag as compensation. When I clear my schedule next month, let's go to Hong Kong together."

Teacher Xiao Guo felt a surge of joy in his heart, but a helpless expression appeared on his face, "Fine, important matters come first, I'll let you off this time!"
