It was a quiet bedroom with dark red lights and a pink bed. The whole bedroom was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere. Li Haocheng was lying down leisurely. There was a pack of Yellow Crane Tower cigarettes on the bedside table. If one looked closely, one could tell that it was a limited edition Yellow Crane Tower with 8500 cigarettes. The price of a pack of cigarettes was 800 to 900 yuan.
Li Haocheng smoked from time to time. The sound of water coming from the bathroom occasionally attracted Li Haocheng's attention. In the past, Li Haocheng could not wait anymore. But now, Lin Qing's face appeared in Li Haocheng's mind from time to time. These days, even he was a little distracted from his work.
That Celestial Master Zhang said that I have fate with women with the surname Lin in my life. Damn, is it really so accurate? Li Haocheng remembered that when he was young, he once followed the old leader Wang Qinghai to the Taoist temple as a guest. The old leader had a good relationship with the Celestial Master Zhang. Li Haocheng used to laugh at the old leader's superstition in his heart. He also disdained the so-called Celestial Master Zhang, thinking that he was just a quack. The old leader was an official of the GC party. He should be an atheist, but he actually believed in those illusory things. Now that he thought about it carefully, he remembered that Celestial Master Zhang said to him with a smile when he saw him following the old leader Wang Qinghai. He said that he would be entangled with women with the surname Lin in his life. Then, there was a mysterious smile. Although Li Haocheng did not care about it at that time, he still remembered this sentence. Now that he thought about it, he felt that the old quack was really mysterious.
When I have time, I really should go to Nanfu Mountain again. If that old quack is not dead, he should be in his seventies or eighties. Li Haocheng thought so.
Lin Qing's delicate face appeared in Li Haocheng's mind from time to time, followed by Lin Hong's beautiful face. The two faces alternated in his mind. Li Haocheng found that he had been deeply fascinated by Lin Qing in these few days. Comparing Lin Hong with Lin Qing, Li Haocheng suddenly felt that Lin Hong was useless.
One was a highly educated woman who was born and educated abroad and had an MBA from a world-renowned university. The other was a country girl who had only finished primary school. When Li Haocheng compared Lin Qing and Lin Hong, he increasingly felt that Lin Hong and Lin Qing could not be compared. Lin Hong was not that bad. Those who did not know Lin Hong's past would not think that Lin Hong had only graduated from primary school. Lin Hong, who was well-dressed and liked to pursue fashion from head to toe, looked like a fair-skinned, rich, and beautiful urban girl. No one would associate her with the word 'country girl'. Even if she was, she still wasn't.
But in Li Haocheng's eyes, Lin Hong would forever be a country girl who came from the countryside. If he had not taken a fancy to her from the acrobatic troupe and taken her in, who knew what Lin Hong would be like right now? How could she have the life she had now? Li Haocheng compared Lin Hong and Lin Hong, infinitely magnifying Lin Hong's shortcomings. Li Haocheng did not know that his mentality was quietly changing. For the past two days, Li Haocheng's thoughts had been on Lin Qing's heart. He no longer cared about Lin Hong. If it were not for Lin Qing's constant indifference, other than expressing some ambiguous expressions, she would not allow him to go any further, Li Haocheng would not even have come to Lin Hong's place for the past two nights. His fire was ignited at Lin Qing's place, so Li Haocheng could only come to Lin Hong's place to extinguish the fire.
What Li Haocheng did not realize was that Lin Hong was a woman that he could get whatever he wanted with his power. He could use his power and status to make Lin Hong his exclusive lover, but his power could not affect Lin Qing at all. On the contrary, he even had to beg Lin Qing to persuade Gray Corporation to open a branch in Nanzhou City.
Without a doubt, for a man, a woman that he could not get was the best. If the two women, Lin Hong and Lin Hong, stood side by side, Lin Hong's appearance was definitely not inferior to Lin Qing's. She might even be prettier than Lin Qing. However, to Li Haocheng, Lin Hong came and went at his beck and call. And back then, Li Haocheng had also forced himself on Lin Hong, so Li Haocheng had no qualms at all. However, if it was Lin Qing, Li Haocheng did not dare to do it at all. Lin Qing's identity was also something that Li Haocheng treasured. When Li Haocheng thought about Lin Qing's identity, he thought that if he could get a woman like that, it would be worth it.
As Li Haocheng was lost in his thoughts, the bathroom door opened. Lin Hong, wrapped in a pink bath towel, appeared at the bathroom door. Li Haocheng then turned his head.
You little vixen, you're really getting more and more attractive. Li Haocheng smiled.
No matter how attractive she is, she can only attract you. Look, she doesn't even have a good male friend now. Lin Hong snorted and walked to the bed. She stretched out a pair of slender hands and gently massaged Li Haocheng's shoulders, making Li Haocheng feel comfortable.
Brother Haocheng, you've been a little absent-minded these two days. Don't tell me you have another woman? Lin Hong asked in a seemingly casual manner.
Women would think too much. There's no such thing. Li Haocheng waved his hand impatiently. Even if there's another woman, it's just an act outside. I'm the Deputy Mayor. You should know that I have a lot of social engagements outside. There are many times when I have an act. Other than you, who else can enter my heart?
Really? Who asked you to be so careless these two days? You're different from before.
Really? You're thinking too much. Li Haocheng was stunned. He was surprised by a woman's keen intuition.
We've been together for so many years. How can I not know if you've changed a little? Besides, you're the first man in my life and also my only man. I know you more than you can imagine. Lin Hong smiled charmingly. Looking at the man in front of her, a trace of complexity flashed through the depth of her eyes. There was also a kind of anger that even she herself didn't notice.
Anger could make a woman lose her mind.
…
The sun rose. The sun crossed the horizon and slowly climbed up from behind the mountain. A brand new day began.
After a busy morning, Chen Xing went to a hotel at noon. The hotel was not very eye-catching. It was in the less prosperous area of the city. When Chen Xing arrived, he was quite confused.
He went straight to the second floor of the hotel. As soon as he went up the stairs, Chen Xing saw Lin Hong standing at the door of the private room and smiling at him. Chen Xing was stunned for a moment and nodded to return the greeting. He had to admit that Lin Hong was a beautiful woman.
He smiled and made an inviting gesture. Lin Hong took a step back and let Chen Xing enter the private room first. Then, she followed him in. After the door of the private room was slowly closed, Lin Hong smiled and said, "Thank you, Mayor Chen, for taking time out of your busy schedule to meet me today.
It's rare for a beautiful woman to invite me. Of course, I have to come. " Chen Xing smiled indifferently.
After hearing Mayor Chen's praise, I'll be happy for the whole day. Lin Hong walked to Chen Xing with a smile and poured a glass of water for Chen Xing. Intentionally or unintentionally, when Lin Hong bent down, she deliberately moved her body close to Chen Xing. As long as Chen Xing turned his eyes slightly, he could see the full view of Lin Hong's chest.
Seeing that Chen Xing didn't turn his head, Lin Hong was a little discouraged. She walked to the opposite side and sat down. As Lin Hong sat down, Chen Xing observed Lin Hong for a while. Lin Hong was wearing a white shirt and a pair of black trousers. Today, Lin Hong was dressed like an office OL. The black underwear under the white shirt was faintly discernible. Chen Xing didn't dare to look at it and looked away.
Seeing that Chen Xing's eyes stayed on her for a while, Lin Hong's eyes flashed with a trace of complacency. She had always been very confident about her appearance and knew how to show her beauty and how to tease men. Today, her dress was not very sexy, but it undoubtedly had a different kind of attraction for men.
Mayor Chen's wife was really beautiful. Lin Hong glanced at Chen Xing with a smile. Thinking of Zhang Ningning that day, Lin Hong felt a sense of helplessness in her heart. That was another woman who made her feel inferior from the bottom of her heart.
"Miss Lin is also very beautiful." Chen Xing replied with a smile.
"Right, I don't feel anything when others praise me, but I'm very happy when Mayor Chen praises me." Lin Hong was very excited. Whether it was fake or not, Lin Hong had a different kind of charm at this time.
Chen Xing nodded with a smile and turned to look at the private room. The private room was very ordinary, almost like an ordinary restaurant. The environment of the private room was very ordinary. This hotel was in an inconspicuous location. Before coming here, Chen Xing guessed that Lin Hong asked him out because she had something to do. This undoubtedly confirmed his original guess. Calmly looking at Lin Hong, Chen Xing said with a smile, "The environment of Miss Lin's restaurant by the sea is very good. Why didn't you go to your own place? Instead, you asked me to come here.
I'm afraid that Mayor Chen wouldn't dare to go there if I asked Mayor Chen to go there. " Lin Hong said with a smile.
"Since Miss Lin dared to ask me out, why wouldn't I dare to go?" Chen Xing stared at Lin Hong and said.
Lin Hong felt very uncomfortable being stared at by Chen Xing. She didn't go to her own place because she didn't want others to know. Li Haocheng knew that the restaurant belonged to her and would occasionally eat there. Lin Hong didn't want any accidents to happen. If someone saw her and gossiped about her to Li Haocheng, it would be terrible for Lin Hong. At this moment, Lin Hong didn't intend to tell the truth to Chen Xing. He smiled unnaturally and said, "There are too many people there. I'm afraid Mayor Chen won't like that kind of noisy environment."
Chen Xing observed the change of Lin Hong's expression and a trace of mockery flashed across his eyes. Chen Xing didn't want to beat around the bush and said directly, "Miss Lin, let's not talk about these useless things. I think Miss Lin didn't ask me to have a meal today. Miss Lin, if you have something to say, just say it."
Mayor Chen was really straightforward. Lin Hong was surprised by Chen Xing's straightforwardness and chuckled. Lin Hong said, "If I say that I want to make friends with Mayor Chen, I wonder if Mayor Chen will believe me?"
"Of course I'm willing to believe you, but I'm afraid that Miss Lin won't." Chen Xing smiled and looked at Lin Hong meaningfully. "I heard that Miss Lin has a good relationship with Deputy Mayor Li?"
"I don't know where Mayor Chen heard it from." Lin Hong was shocked and glanced at Chen Xing intentionally or unintentionally. He didn't know if Chen Xing had any deeper meaning in his question. Seeing Chen Xing's calm face, Lin Hong suppressed the surprise in his heart and said with a smile, "I don't know how people outside spread the rumor that I'm friends with Mayor Li, but it's not like what others say."
"Really? I didn't say anything, but Miss Lin seems to be deliberately explaining something?" Chen Xing looked at Lin Hong with a faint smile. "I think Mayor Chen has misunderstood.
I'm just telling the truth. A senior government official like Mayor Li, many people will compete to make friends with him. Of course, I'm no exception. I'm just a person who runs a small business. If I can make friends with a high-ranking official or a noble person, it will also be a lot of benefits for me. For example, I sincerely want to make friends with Mayor Chen, but I'm afraid that Mayor Chen won't give me the chance. "
"If Miss Lin is really sincere, then I'll also welcome you. It seems that I should be very honored to have such a beautiful friend like Miss Lin." Chen Xing smiled and curled his lips. Lin Hong didn't tell him the truth.
"If Mayor Chen's words are sincere, I will be very moved." Lin Hong said with a smile.
"If Miss Lin is telling the truth just now, I will also be very moved." Chen Xing smiled and said the exact words to Lin Hong.
"Well, I'll stop joking with you, Mayor Chen. To be honest, I'm not a good person, but at least I'm a real villain. I'm much better than those hypocrites. I really have something to discuss with Mayor Chen today. Just like what Mayor Chen said, let's not beat around the bush." Lin Hong finally decided to get to the main topic. His expression also became serious. "Today, I asked Mayor Chen out because I want to discuss a business with Mayor Chen. I wonder if Mayor Chen is interested?"
"That depends on what Miss Lin wants to talk about." Chen Xing said calmly. As expected, he secretly thought in his heart. He also became very alert. Lin Hong, who had a special relationship with Li Haocheng, had asked him out in private. Chen Xing had to take it seriously.
"I believe that the business I want to discuss will interest Mayor Chen." Lin Hong was full of confidence.
"Miss Lin is so confident?" Chen Xing glanced at her indifferently. He didn't like her confident look. "If I turn around and leave now, I don't know if Miss Lin will still be so confident."
Chen Xing's words made Lin Hong's face stiffen for a moment. Knowing that she actually didn't have much qualification and confidence to negotiate with Chen Xing, Lin Hong restrained her expression. She didn't mind putting herself in a weak position. "Mayor Chen, I know you are very dissatisfied with Zheng Guangfu and Zhang Qingyang. You have always wanted to deal with them, but you can't do it because you don't have evidence. Moreover, Mayor Chen, you have just arrived in Nanzhou, so you can't direct people to investigate them. But I can provide some evidence for Mayor Chen."
"Really?" Chen Xing was shocked and looked at Lin Hong in surprise. Chen Xing tried hard to control the surprise in his heart. "If Miss Lin hadn't been sitting in front of me, I would have suspected that I was hallucinating."
"Mayor Chen, you didn't hear me wrong. I can indeed provide you with evidence of Zheng Guangfu and Zhang Qingyang's crimes." Lin Hong looked at Chen Xing and nodded. She became more and more confident. Chen Xing's reaction made Lin Hong believe that Chen Xing would definitely be interested.
"Miss Lin just said that you want to do business with me. Is this what you mean?" Chen Xing looked at Lin Hong calmly.
"Yes, but I can't give these things to Mayor Chen for free. I think Mayor Chen should know better than me that there is no free lunch in this world. I can provide what you need, Mayor Chen, but Mayor Chen has to meet some of my conditions. Let's consider it an equal exchange." Lin Hong said with a smile. She believed that Chen Xing would be interested in the business she proposed.
"Then what do you want?" Chen Xing looked at Lin Hong.
"If I say that I want to get the Gold Capital Hotel, Mayor Chen will ask your friend to be merciful and stop fighting with me. I wonder if Mayor Chen will agree?" Lin Hong looked at Chen Xing with a smile. She got up and walked to Chen Xing. Lin Hong pulled a chair next to Chen Xing and sat down, almost sticking to Chen Xing.
"I can't represent Huang Ming. You can talk to him yourself." Chen Xing said coldly.
"Ha, I'm just joking with Mayor Chen. Mayor Chen, you are so unreasonable. How can I trust you to do business with me?" Lin Hong said with a smile.
"It's still unknown whether Miss Lin's words can be trusted. It's too early to make a request." Chen Xing was unmoved.
"Mayor Chen, you can rest assured. Since I want to do business with you, Mayor Chen, of course, I dare not lie to you. Otherwise, how can I stay in Nanzhou City?" "Mayor Chen, you are a dignified mayor. As long as you move your finger, there will be no place for me in Nanzhou City. I still have to make a living here. I dare not offend Mayor Chen." Lin Hong smiled and leaned closer to Chen Xing.
"Miss Lin, please behave yourself." Chen Xing frowned.
"Okay, okay, I'll sit better. Mayor Chen, you are really unromantic. You are like a wooden man." Lin Hong became bold at this time. She teased Chen Xing intentionally or unintentionally.
"Miss Lin, do you look like you are talking business with me?" Chen Xing sneered.
"It's too boring to talk about business. I need to relax." Lin Hong rolled her eyes. "Mayor Chen, I see that you seem to have a close relationship with a lady surnamed Chu and a lady surnamed He. By the way, they seem to have come from Hai City with Huang Ming. I heard that they have a good relationship."
"You investigated me?" Chen Xing was stunned. He looked at Lin Hong, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Mayor Chen, don't misunderstand. I don't dare to investigate you. I just happened to know about you." Lin Hong was shocked by Chen Xing's gaze. She smiled and shook her head. How could she admit to this kind of thing? Besides, she didn't investigate Chen Xing on purpose. When she asked people to investigate Huang Ming, she accidentally saw that Chen Xing also went in and out of Nanzhou Hotel several times and had an ambiguous relationship with Chu Rong and He Li.
