Chapter 683: I Am Also on the List

The intimacy with Chen Meng only stopped at a light hug and half-embrace; I couldn't go any further. No matter what the situation, after all, she was my sister-in-law and Huang Weiwei's best friend. I couldn't hurt He Jiaxiao, let alone Huang Weiwei; of course, I didn't want to hurt Chen Meng or myself either.

The joy between men and women is only in the flash of lightning. Only emotion is like a clear spring in the mountains that never dries up for thousands of years, washing away the complexity of the world and cleaning the dust on the soul. However, human ethics are like strange rocks and peaks on the road of clear springs, dangerous and standing.

I am a sentimental man, and a brave sentimental man. I am willing to love all the women worth loving, and I dare to break through thorns in the eyes of the world, even if I am covered in bruises.

Many years later, I suddenly understood that a man's love, a man's sentimentality, only when built on the foundation of money and power, will be tenacious and invincible.

Lacking money and power, no matter how capable a man is, he can only sigh at the sky.

In this world, the things that attract women are nothing more than money, power, and talent. Money and power require strategy. On the road to obtaining money and power, how many stories of one general's success and ten thousand bones drying up! And talent is the foundation born with, plus the result of persistence after birth, which often only flashes in the eyes of women.

A man without the support of money and power is an ordinary man. A woman without the support of money and power is a woman who will never be reconciled in her life.

I let go of the hand hugging Chen Meng's shoulder, pretended to light a cigarette, walked to the window, looked at the bustling crowd below, and felt infinite emotion.

These people, if they weren't forced, who would come to the foot of the Son of Heaven from thousands of miles away to call for grievances? These simple elders of mine, they always have a "Blue Sky Master" in their hearts, and no one is willing to push down the last statue in their hearts. But the fact is, the blue sky is still there, but the dark clouds are even more prosperous.

"Are they here because of demolition problems?" I asked, frowning. This is no different from the fire in the backyard. The late Zhongzheng Master said, "Resist the outside, first pacify the inside." I suddenly felt the charm of it.

"Didn't you see the Beijing Office Director putting out the fire?" Chen Meng sneered, sighed long and said, "These are all the disasters caused by Guo Wei. My old man is blaming himself very much now."

"What does it have to do with Secretary Chen?" I said indignantly, "Some people always want to clear themselves. Secretary Chen is the main official of Hengyue City, there are so many things he needs to handle, how could he be connected to these small things?"

"When Guo Wei took office as the Deputy Director of the Industrial Park, my father made the decision."

I was speechless. After thinking about it, I said, "Secretary Chen is also thinking for the country. After all, Guo Wei is a cadre cultivated by the Party, young and promising."

"Indeed promising!" Chen Meng sneered, "Abandoning family and business, betraying the motherland. This person should be cut into a thousand pieces."

I laughed, "Mengmeng, I can't see that you are more vicious than some men."

She smiled embarrassedly, curled her lips and said, "Without him, would we come to clean up the mess today?"

"If you want to clean it, clean it. I won't clean it, it's disgusting," I said.

"You have to clean it even if you don't want to," Chen Meng suddenly said fiercely, "If you don't clean it, I'll make you unable to sleep for a lifetime."

"Why?"

"No reason, you must clean it."

"What if I don't clean it?"

"It doesn't matter. However, if you want to do a big career in the future, it's just a daydream." Chen Meng got up and walked to my side, looking at the crowd downstairs with me.

"Are you threatening me?" I asked unhappily.

"No," she said faintly, "No one can threaten you. However, if someone gives you an unwarranted charge, do you accept it or resist it?"

"Of course resist," I had a premonition of something ominous.

"What if you can't resist?"

"The clear are clear," I said with a guilty smile, "Is there no place to reason in this world?"

"You are right. Some things really can't find a place to reason," Chen Meng pushed me, stared into my eyes and said, "Chen Feng, tell me honestly, do you have any relationship with Qilin Villa?"

"What relationship?" I asked suspiciously, shaking my head firmly.

"You haven't received their money, right?" she asked tentatively.

"Nonsense!" I was furious, stared at her fiercely, and said word by word, "Comrade Chen Meng, what kind of person do you think I am?"

"It's not me," she said calmly, her tone flat, slowly saying, "The problem is that someone has dragged you in."

"Who?" I was almost jumping up. Qilin Villa was taken down by my own arrangement. If I had shit in my pants, would I do such a stupid thing?

"I don't believe it either," she smiled lightly and said, "You know why my Aunt has been refusing to take out the list, right?"

I shook my head and said, "I don't know. Because it has nothing to do with me."

"Self-righteous," Chen Meng glared at me and said, "I tell you, it's because your name, Chen Feng, is on the list."

"How could my name be on it?" I was puzzled, and at the same time, I cursed Lao Can's ancestors a thousand times. Damn Lao Can, this was deliberately setting a trap. Did he foresee that something would happen? So he put me on the list, making people unable to distinguish true from false?

"So, yellow mud fell into the crotch, it's shit even if it's not shit," Chen Meng laughed gloatingly at my angry look.

I said desperately, "I still say the same thing, the clear are clear."

"People are dead, who will clear your name?"

I was speechless.

Ten thousand alpacas roared across my chest, and my chest seemed to be filled with blood. There was even a smell of blood, and as long as I opened my mouth, I would spray blood and die.

The sudden grievance filled my heart, my eyes went black, and I almost fell down.

Chen Meng reached out and helped me, saying softly, "Chen Feng? Is this all the ability you have?"

I said disheartenedly, "I have felt the feeling of helplessness now. Let everything be up to heaven!"

"Is it worth it?" Chen Meng looked at me with a smile.

"What else can I do?"

"There is only one way," Chen Meng laughed, "Let the list never see the light of day."

My heart stirred, looking at her smiling face, I couldn't say a word.

"Have you seen the list?" After a moment of silence, I asked tentatively.

"What do you think?" she asked back with a smile.

"Must have seen it," I asked, "Who else is on the list?"

"Those who should be are all there," she looked at me with a smile and said, "Who do you hope is there?"

"I don't hope anyone is there," I sighed and said, "This Lao Can, people are dead, and he left a time bomb."

"That's right. This person is insidious! Old Jianghu, calculated it long ago," Chen Meng sighed and said, "Chen Feng, I don't want to see you troubled by this bomb, so I went to find my Aunt and begged her for three whole days. Now, everything is clear."

"What do you mean?"

"This bomb, I made it a dud."

"Is Secretary Chen's name on the list?" I asked carefully.

"What do you think?"

"Shouldn't be," I shook my head and said, "Lao Can, this dog, deliberately made a smoke bomb."

"Since it's a smoke bomb, it will deceive everyone," Chen Meng said, "As for who is there and who is not, it doesn't matter."

I smiled, looked at my watch, and said, "Mengmeng, if you make it a dud, isn't it contrary to your justice?"

"Perhaps, behind some seemingly justice, there is more ugliness hidden."

I smiled noncommittally. Chen Meng's words made me walk from the cold winter to the spring, and let me perceive the heat of summer in the autumn wind. This is a strange woman, always making me unexpected, and always making me calm down in the complicated thoughts.

"You accompany me out now," she said after tidying up.

"Where to?"

"Take these people back to Hengyue City," Chen Meng pointed to the crowd of petitioners and said, "I want to clear all obstacles on your way forward."

I was full of mixed feelings and sighed to the sky, "What virtue and ability does He Jiaxiao have to marry a woman like you, how much blessing did he cultivate in his previous life."

"You have Xiao Mi, you also cultivated a lot of blessings in your previous life," she said with a grin, "We sisters are here to save you two stinky men." ===== CHAPTER 684 =====
