Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

The vehicle headed north all the way.

"You've followed Zhang Sheng for so long; you should have quite a bit of dirt on him, right?"

Wang Xiaohua asked Wu Moli this question at this moment.

Wu Moli's lips moved slightly, wanting to speak, but at the very moment the words were about to leave her mouth, she restrained herself.

She thought that the dirt she knew on Zhang Sheng was more or less connected to herself; if things really blew up, would she have to go in too?

So in the end she actually said:

"Zhang Sheng keeps a tight lip; as for any illegal or disciplinary dirt, I really don't know any."

Anyway, the 800,000 that Wang Xiaohua proactively paid — getting her to cough it up is impossible.

Additionally, she didn't believe Wang Xiaohua would resort to unscrupulous means like Zhang Sheng.

When she was at Liguo Mountain, she had heard of Wang Xiaohua; this person was not only academically outstanding, but is now a Civil Servant in Shangang Town, and definitely wouldn't do the things the Underworld would do.

So she had nothing to fear!

"I helped you pay 800,000, keeping you out of prison, showing such great sincerity, and you actually talk to me like this now?"

Wang Xiaohua was also stunned for a moment, his face revealing a hint of displeasure.

Wu Moli, however, wore an icy expression:

"I never asked you to help me pay this money, either; besides, I'm telling the truth, okay? If I really held dirt that could put Zhang Sheng in a dead end, would I still need you lot to act?"

Wu Moli indeed did not possess dirt that could put Zhang Sheng in a dead end; she was very afraid of Zhang Sheng's retaliation, so even when she was caught and detained for quite a few days, she did not choose to tell the Police about Zhang Sheng's wrongdoings.

After all, trivial minor dirt could at most only scratch Zhang Sheng's surface.

Besides, Zhang Sheng had many informants in the County Town; the County Public Security Bureau might well have his people too, so even when Deng Hongyun messed with her like that, she didn't choose to go all out in desperation.

Wang Xiaohua suddenly turned the steering wheel, pulled over to the right, then turned his head to look at her:

"You really don't have any dirt on Zhang Sheng?"

Wang Xiaohua's gaze was like a knife.

Wu Moli couldn't help but dodge it slightly.

It was very obvious — she was lying.

It wasn't that she didn't know Zhang Sheng's dirt.

Rather, she had reservations and was unwilling to speak it.

This might involve her own vested interests.

So Wang Xiaohua said again:

"You can selectively tell some that have nothing to do with you."

However, Wu Moli still refused to speak.

Wang Xiaohua laughed in anger:

"So, do you still want to deal with Zhang Sheng or not? Don't forget, right now you have absolutely nothing; don't you want to fight for some benefits that originally belonged to you?"

"I do!" Wu Moli finally spoke.

Wang Xiaohua looked at her again:

"Is it that you want to deal with Zhang Sheng, or that you want to fight for your own benefits?"

Wu Moli hesitated a moment, then said:

"Both, but..."

Wang Xiaohua still looked at her:

"But what?"

Wu Moli still chose to be hard-mouthed:

"But I really don't have any dirt on Zhang Sheng."

Wang Xiaohua couldn't help but let out a sigh.

It seems he had miscalculated.

He thought that with how Zhang Sheng treated Wu Moli, her resentment toward Zhang Sheng must have reached its peak, and she might even be willing to perish together with Zhang Sheng!

However, Wu Moli was not that kind of woman.

What she prioritized was whether she herself would get dragged in.

Some dirt really cannot be exposed.

So she weakly said:

"Is there really no method to fix Zhang Sheng without me having to expose his dirt?"

Hearing her say this, Wang Xiaohua only then fully understood her petty calculations.

He instantly didn't know whether to cry or laugh:

"You sure know how to wish for the best! Isn't that wanting to have it both ways? Do you think you can have both the fish and the bear's paw?"

Wu Moli, however, said:

"Aren't you pretty clever? Why don't you help me think of a way."

Wang Xiaohua was rendered speechless by her.

How can a person be this shameless?

However, Wang Xiaohua still seriously thought it over.

He then gave an answer:

"If you don't want to expose Zhang Sheng's dirt, but still want to retaliate against Zhang Sheng, then I'm afraid the only way is for you to put yourself on the line."

Wu Moli was stunned:

"You want me to put myself on the line? What do you mean?"

Wang Xiaohua changed his tune at this point:

"Forget it, no need for that move. Next, you hide first; I'll handle the contact with Zhang Sheng."

But Wu Moli pressed:

"You want me to put myself on the line — what move exactly? You tell me first; maybe I'll agree?"

Wang Xiaohua refused to tell her.

Because this move was too vicious.

It was to have Wu Moli accuse Zhang Sheng of rape.

Under current law, the standard for judging the crime of rape relies heavily on the Girlfriend's subjective judgment, so there is very large room for manipulation.

Although Wu Moli voluntarily became Zhang Sheng's mistress, if at this point Wu Moli changes her story and says that on one or several occasions, without obtaining her consent, Zhang Sheng forcibly had sexual intercourse with her, then Zhang Sheng would need to prove his innocence; and once he falls into the trap of having to prove his innocence, that basically equals defeat.

Most importantly, this move is too vicious, too bottomless, and does not match Wang Xiaohua's style of doing things, so in the end Wang Xiaohua still chose not to use this move.

He only said to Wu Moli:

"From now on you don't need to worry about anything; I'll run the operation."

Wang Xiaohua's goal was very clear: he did not want to put Zhang Sheng in a dead end; if he put Zhang Sheng in a dead end, wouldn't the Shangang Town Real Estate Development project have to be shelved?

So, actually, controlling Wu Moli right now is enough to go negotiate with Zhang Sheng.

Whether he got Zhang Sheng's dirt from Wu Moli or not — that actually doesn't matter at all!

The most important thing is to make Zhang Sheng believe that he has already obtained his dirt from Wu Moli!

And now, Wang Xiaohua spent a full 800,000 to rescue Wu Moli from the Detention Center; to expect Zhang Sheng not to suspect that he got some information from Wu Moli — that is absolutely impossible!

So Wang Xiaohua brought Wu Moli to stay at a Small Hotel in Shangang Town, then found a remote, deserted place, dialed Zhang Sheng's number, and directly negotiated with Zhang Sheng.

"Hello, Chairman Zhang, it's me, Wang Xiaohua."

Zhang Sheng was currently anxious and busy, having people search everywhere for Wu Moli's whereabouts.

Unexpectedly, before the person was found, he received a call from Wang Xiaohua.

"Xiaohua, something the matter?"

Zhang Sheng froze for a moment; a vague ominous premonition rose in him.

"Wu Moli is with me."

Wang Xiaohua went straight to the point.

Zhang Sheng's heart gave a sudden jolt.

But he still forcibly suppressed his inner emotions.

"Hehe, Xiaohua, what's this about? You and I seemingly have no grudge, right? And I've treated your Second Brother quite well."

But Wang Xiaohua said:

"This has nothing to do with my Second Brother; it's my own decision."

Zhang Sheng then asked:

"What grievance do you have against me? Actually we can sit down and talk slowly."

Wang Xiaohua said:

"Aren't we talking right now? I originally had no grievance against you; I even thanked you for thinking so highly of me — to build a good relationship with me, you had relatives deliberately overpay to buy my Second Brother's Farm, and specially hired some old, weak, sick, and disabled people to work at the Farm; most importantly, you even Donated 1 million to Shangang Town for poverty alleviation."

Zhang Sheng chuckled:

"Good that you know; hearing you say that, I'm quite relieved. Then why did you take Wu Moli away?"

Wang Xiaohua answered honestly:

"Because of Uncle Chunsheng."

"Niu Chunsheng?" Zhang Sheng froze.

Wang Xiaohua directly stated his stance:

"In this County Town, whoever you want to eat, I can pretend not to see; but if you want to eat Uncle Chunsheng, that's not allowed!"
