Chapter 949: The Opponent's Level is Too High!

Cao Yunfan gave an awkward smile: "I drank too much the day before yesterday and accidentally bumped into a flower bed."

"Oh my, that's too dangerous! Director Cao, you must be more careful next time!"

Wu Yongping found it secretly amusing; Cao Yunfan's face was most likely scratched by Xie Miao!

Cao Yunfan's luck at cards was exceptionally good today, though he could tell that Yang Hong was intentionally feeding him tiles.

"Director Cao, your promotion is truly fast; in less than half a year, you've been promoted another rank."

"Heh, the salary is only so much; even with a promotion, how could it compare to you businessmen who are so carefree!" Cao Yunfan sighed.

"Director Cao, your official position is getting higher and higher, and you hold the power of tax management. As long as you are willing to speak up, why worry about not having good things?" Yang Hong said with a smile.

Cao Yunfan waved his hand: "You don't know, how many people are watching me! I dare not act recklessly."

Yang Hong smiled: "Director Cao is indeed cautious; you will surely have great development in the future."

Cao Yunfan stood up: "I'm going to use the restroom, wait a moment."

After Cao Yunfan walked into the restroom, Yang Hong asked in a low voice: "Town Mayor Liu, why haven't you gotten to the point yet?"

Wu Yongping gave a faint smile: "I know you want to get to know Department Head Du, but if you don't feed him well, how will he help you bridge the connection?"

Cao Yunfan returned to the card table, and Yang Hong intentionally dealt him a winning hand a few more times.

Wu Yongping took the opportunity to say with a smile: "Director Cao, when will there be a chance to meet Department Head Du and have a meal? President Yang has work he wants to report to him in person!"

Cao Yunfan muttered to himself; since he and Xie Miao had been at such odds lately, how could Du Chengfeng casually interact with these people?

Naturally, he wouldn't tell the truth, so he replied casually: "Sure, let's wait for a suitable opportunity. Meeting Department Head Du really does require picking the right time."

Wu Yongping smiled: "Having your promise is enough."

After finishing mahjong, Yang Hong suggested: "Shall we go for a soak? I heard the service at Jile Port is quite good."

Jile Port was an old-established bath center in Hanzhou; the boss had a deep background and handled relationships very well, and Yang Hong was already a regular here.

Just as Cao Yunfan walked into Jile Port, Tang Ye also received a call from Wan Ming.

……

Although it was Cao Yunfan's first time here, he didn't seem unfamiliar; he went straight to the third floor, lay down, and started smoking.

Before long, the Manager brought in several young female technicians, looking to be in their twenties. Although they wore heavy makeup, they still couldn't hide their youthful aura—this type was exactly what Cao Yunfan preferred.

After picking and choosing, he finally selected the youngest one.

Once inside the room, the girl said: "Sir, you need to take a bath first."

Cao Yunfan smiled and invited: "Let's bathe together."

The girl wasn't shy either; she followed him into the bathroom, adjusted the water temperature, and called out: "Sir, the water is ready."

Cao Yunfan took off his clothes and walked into the bathroom. Seeing the girl testing the water temperature, his gaze swept over her skin and figure, secretly marveling at the creator's masterful craftsmanship.

Afterward, when the girl was washing his body, his hands were also very restless.

The girl was ticklish and giggled, and after washing for a while, she said: "Sir, that's enough, please lie on the bed."

Cao Yunfan lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and enjoyed the comfort of gradually entering a land of gentleness.

Suddenly, the room door was kicked open with a "bang," and three or four people rushed in.

Someone was holding a camera to take pictures, and someone shouted sternly: "Police! Don't move!"

Cao Yunfan was so scared he quickly covered his face with a pillow, and a cold sweat broke out along his spine!

He knew clearly in his heart that he was completely finished this time!

……

Cao Yunfan saw Xie Miao at the Detention Center.

"I really just went to take a bath; I didn't expect the Police to catch me."

Xie Miao sneered, "You don't need to explain so much to me. I'm notifying you of one thing: be prepared, as soon as the Civil Affairs Bureau opens, we are getting a divorce!"

Cao Yunfan said in a deep voice, "Can you really not give me another chance?"

Xie Miao sighed, "No need. We've been at each other for so many years, my heart is tired."

Cao Yunfan slammed the table heavily, gritted his teeth, and said angrily, "Fine, let's divorce then! You go pay the fine for me!"

After paying the fine, Cao Yunfan was allowed to leave.

Cao Yunfan didn't go straight home but came to Yang Hong's residence.

He reunited with Yang Hong and the others who had been caught together.

"Jile Port has always been safe, why was it such a coincidence this time?" Yang Hong asked, puzzled.

"You mean, we might have been framed?" Cao Yunfan said in surprise.

Wu Yongping gritted his teeth, "I'll go find out!"

Wu Yongping dialed an acquaintance's number.

A moment later, Wu Yongping received the news.

"The Police Station Chief of the jurisdiction where Jile Port is located has been replaced. The new Chief is trying to set an example; he has been taking people to rectify the atmosphere in entertainment venues these past few days."

Cao Yunfan didn't quite believe this conclusion.

He thought of a possibility.

The opponent's level was too high!

They had designed the trap to be so reasonable and seamless,

that even Wu Yongping could only learn the surface!

……

Cao Yunfan returned home.

His mother-in-law and father-in-law were waiting for him.

Facing an atmosphere like an ice cellar, Cao Yunfan was pushed to the edge of a cliff.

"Yunfan, when I married Xie Miao to you back then, it was because I thought you were a very honest person. But, you turned out to be this kind of person! I am truly heartbroken and regretful; I shouldn't have done that back then!" Du Xiaofeng said indignantly.

Cao Yunfan steeled his heart, "Mom and Dad, the affection between Xie Miao and me has long since vanished. She has also been cheating on me behind my back. We can't go on like this. I agree to her divorcing me. However, I have one request: the assets must be split equally!"

Xie Miao stood up without the slightest hesitation, "I agree!"

It took a long while for Du Xiaofeng to recover!

"Since your minds are made up, I have no objections.

Yunfan, for the sake of you having called me Mom for so many years.

I still want to advise you: be more steady in your actions in the future."

Cao Yunfan's lips trembled!

He clearly knew where he had gone wrong!

But, it was too late to regret it now!

The next morning, Tang Ye and Du Chengfeng met for their morning exercise.

After running a few dozen meters, Tang Ye brought up the matter of Cao Yunfan to Du Chengfeng.

"Dad, let me tell you something! Yesterday, Cao Yunfan was arrested at Jile Port!"

"What? Could they have arrested the wrong person?" Du Chengfeng stopped in his tracks, looking at Tang Ye in disbelief.

Tang Ye shook his head: "There is no mistake!"

Du Chengfeng suppressed his anger: "I really didn't expect this; he is so disappointing!"

Tang Ye sighed: "I spoke with Xie Miao on the phone last night; Cao Yunfan has already agreed to the divorce."

Du Chengfeng nodded slightly: "It's better to divorce! Since the auras don't match, let each other go!"

Du Chengfeng knew clearly in his heart that Cao Yunfan's arrest was definitely orchestrated by Tang Ye behind the scenes.

Although Tang Ye's method of handling it was somewhat direct, it was still better than being caught off guard by someone later on.

Sometimes, when you know there is a mine nearby, you have to arrange for sappers to clear it; blindly avoiding it is never the right choice.

Tang Ye still highly approved of Wan Ming's method of handling things; this was a once-and-for-all solution.

If Cao Yunfan could submit anonymous materials to Du Chengfeng this time, he might submit materials to the Discipline Inspection Department next time.

There is no need to sympathize with someone who attacks their own family behind their backs.

One should be kind, but one cannot be soft-hearted!

Du Chengfeng was a 'main account' that he had worked hard to cultivate!

Tang Ye could not allow him to suffer any mishaps.
