Chapter 622: Yue Bai Surrenders

My appointment hadn't come down yet, but a series of things happened in Hengyue City.

First, the deputy mayor in charge of the economy was taken to the province for investigation, and then all the files of the Industrial Park were sealed. Before anyone could figure out what was going on, Deng Hanyu came to my door, saying that Guan Peishan had also been isolated for investigation.

Guan Peishan was investigated, and Chunshan County would have an earthquake. The cadres who were promoted during Guan's tenure were questioned by the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission one by one. This time it wasn't a stick to the end, but two-pronged. The other stick was Liang Tianxing, who was engaged in real estate development in Chunshan County, who was also arrested.

News kept coming, and every piece of news made my heart jump.

Just when I was uneasy, Yue Bai came to the city and invited me to meet at the Hengyan Hotel by phone.

Township cadres coming to the city generally stay at the Hengyan Hotel. Of course, the Hengyan Hotel is not their reception hotel, and the grade of township cadres is not enough to enjoy the discounts of the Hengyan Hotel. But cadres like to open rooms here when they come, mainly for the sake of face.

It had been almost a year since I saw Yue Bai, and I missed her a bit.

Yue Bai's brows were tightly locked, and her unhappy appearance surprised me. In the past, whenever she saw me, she would definitely be smiling. I looked around the room and saw no one else, so I went straight to the point: "Secretary Liu, missed me?"

Yue Bai looked at me resentfully and sighed long.

She sat opposite me, hands on her knees, her expression incomparably lonely.

"What's wrong?" I asked gently, stood up and walked to her side, reaching out to put my hand on her shoulder.

She shook slightly, and sighed deeply again.

I began to feel unusual. Yue Bai had something on her mind. And it was a big thing!

"You called me here, but don't want to talk, what on earth is wrong." I deliberately put on a straight face. I knew Yue Bai had no secrets in front of me; a woman who could give her body to you wouldn't have any secrets from you.

"Chen Feng, something is going to happen." She finally said a sentence, raised her hand and grabbed my hand on her shoulder.

I felt her hand was very cold, seemingly without blood color and temperature.

"What happened?" I turned my hand over and pinched her slender little hand.

When Yue Bai was in the countryside, her hands were surprisingly white and slender. I once pinched her hand and sighed that her hands should be hands for art, not hands for holding hoe handles.

When I said this, Yue Bai was lying beside me, she turned on her side, rested her chin on my chest, and one hand wandered wantonly on my body, she said with a smile: "I am doing art now!"

Thinking of this, my heart jumped, and I hurriedly collected my mind.

"Secretary Old Guan had an accident, you know, right?" She asked me, because of nervousness, her hand gripped my hand tighter and tighter.

"His accident has nothing to do with you?" I said easily: "Secretary Old Guan's accident is sooner or later, but we have no half-penny relationship with him, don't worry."

"You knew?" She turned her head to look at me, her eyes full of surprise.

I avoided her eyes and said: "Although I am not an immortal, I can see the essence when looking at problems. After Secretary Old Guan was transferred from the position of secretary, even if he didn't rise, he should be at the same level, right? But he was transferred to the Municipal Economic Development Leading Group, and only responsible for Chunshan County, at that time I had a premonition."

Yue Bai pulled my hand, put her face on my palm, and said sincerely: "You are really amazing. But I'm afraid!"

"What are you afraid of?" I teased her: "You have no friendship with Old Guan, and you can't reach him with eight poles."

Yue Bai hesitated and said: "Secretary Old Guan not only knows me, but we also have things between us."

"What things?" My heart paused, I heard for the first time that Yue Bai had a friendship with Guan Peishan. I really didn't know how they were connected together. At the beginning, the infrastructure investment of the Economic Group to Suxi Town, all the work was coordinated by Deng Hanyu, and Guan Peishan didn't even show his face. When did they get tied together again?

"Money matters." Yue Bai pulled me over, she moved her face away from my palm, and put her head on my crotch, hugging me with both hands.

As soon as I heard her talk about money, my heart began to jump violently. Now cadres, as long as they are related to money, they can't be cleared.

"What money?"

"Economic Group investment funds."

"How much?"

Yue Bai stretched out two fingers, and her body began to tremble again.

"Where is the money?" I asked.

"Not credited. I treated it as a benefit and distributed it."

"You are crazy!" I threw off her hug, walked to the side angrily, and hated: "Yue Bai, you have sent yourself on a road of no return, do you know?"

I knew about this money Yue Bai mentioned. At the beginning, the investment funds brought by Deng Hanyu to Suxi Town were as much as five million. And the actual investment in Suxi Town's infrastructure was less than two million. When I was the Town Party Secretary, I expressed my position at the Town Committee meeting that this money should be returned to the Economic Group.

Because Suxi Town signed an agreement with the Economic Group, the management period of the Economic Group in infrastructure was determined according to the amount of investment. The more money, the longer the management authority of others, and the less initiative Suxi Town would have. I calculated this account very clearly.

Moreover, this investment fund was not someone's private property, but a financial appropriation of Hengyue City.

"What on earth happened?" I suppressed my anger and asked.

"After you went to the county, I looked for Team Leader Deng and said I wanted to return this money. But Deng Hanyu said he couldn't make the decision and wanted me to find Secretary Guan. After I found Secretary Guan, Secretary Guan said that since this money had been allocated to Suxi Town, there was no reason to take it back. Let me find a way to digest it."

"How did you digest it?"

"You know, after you sent me to the position of Town Party Secretary, it was actually roasting me on fire. I, a person from a peasant background, didn't understand these twists and turns at all." Yue Bai looked at me and said: "Secretary Guan asked me to double the cost of the actual investment."

"Did you do something to the project cost?" I asked, the fire in my heart almost burning. Guan Peishan, this old fox, was he trying to harm me, or harm Yue Bai?

"And then?" I asked.

"The extra funds, half were given to Secretary Old Guan, and the other half I didn't dare to take, and at the end of the year, they were all distributed as benefits." Yue Bai's face began to turn pale, and her eyes were dim.

"Why didn't you tell me at the time?" I asked, almost roaring.

"Secretary Guan wouldn't let me say." Yue Bai said aggrievedly: "He said, if I told you, he would withdraw the investment in Suxi Town."

"Stupid woman!" I blurted out and scolded. Guan Peishan was just scaring someone like Yue Bai. This move of his was actually tying Yue Bai to his warship. Yue Bai being tied to his warship invisibly put a lot of pressure on me. After all, Suxi Town was the place where I started, and Yue Bai was a cadre I promoted, so I couldn't help but be afraid of throwing a rat.

Yue Bai heard me scold her, but she laughed instead. I could see that her mood had opened up a lot in my scolding.

A few years of training as a Town Party Secretary stripped her of her wild temptation, replaced by shrewdness and knowledge. The Yue Bai in front of me no longer had the charm I was obsessed with back then. Her body was full of beauty like Xu Meili's everywhere. This kind of beauty makes people have a distance that they dare not approach, and can only be appreciated, not romantic.

She had completely changed, changed to the point where I couldn't recognize her at all. The shyness and hotness of the year were now replaced by calmness and virtue, which would no longer make people have associations, and could only be admired.

"Is this the reason you came to find me?" I asked, sitting on the head of the bed.

"Apart from you, who else can I find?" She glanced at me and wanted to get up, but was stopped by me.

"What can I help you with?" I said irritably. Now is an eventful autumn, everyone is terrified and avoiding it. A little carelessness will lead to a disaster.

Guan Peishan had an accident, and I couldn't stay out of it. After all, I was a cadre who grew up under his hand. People who didn't know the background thought I was his person, otherwise, with my qualifications and background, how could I easily become the Deputy County Magistrate of Chunshan County?

Yue Bai said unexpectedly: "I didn't ask you to help me."

I looked at her in surprise and said: "Then what are you looking for me for?"

"Do you mean I was wrong to come to you?" Yue Bai's brows wrinkled.

"No!" I shook my head hurriedly and said: "But you have to tell me how I should help you."

"I said, I don't need you to help me." Yue Bai said stiffly: "I came to tell you, in case I really have an accident, I have to trouble you with one thing."

"What thing?"

"The future of Suxi Town, you must manage it."

I sighed and said: "It's not that I don't manage it, I can't manage it."

She looked at me deeply, stood up and said easily: "Okay, I've seen you, and I've said what I should say. Now I have nothing to do. I should go to the place I want to go."

"Where are you going?" I was startled, stood up and followed her, blocking her in front.

"Do you think I can hide?" She smiled sadly and said: "Chen Feng, finally I have a request, hug me."

I hesitated for a moment, but still reached out and took her into my arms.

She leaned quietly in my arms, breathing quietly.

My heart ached, and I couldn't say a word while holding her.

"Don't worry!" I comforted her: "Just explain the problem clearly to the organization."

She looked up, looked at me quietly, and suddenly reached out and touched my face gently.

"I don't regret it, I really don't regret it." She murmured: "Meeting you is the greatest happiness in my life. Now there is a mountain of knives and a sea of fire in front, I am not afraid."

I was moved and hugged her tighter. Yue Bai, the woman who once made me feel the most wonderful thing in the world, is now going to walk on a road that cannot see the light.

"Chen Feng!" She murmured to me: "Do you know? I really want to be with you for a lifetime."

I hummed, reaching out to wipe the tears on her face.

"I know I'm not worthy!" She smiled and said: "Chen Feng, I want to thank you. You gave me a man's love, let me know the happiness of being a woman."

I couldn't say a word anymore, so I had to lower my head and kiss the tearstains on her face. ===== CHAPTER 623 =====
