Chen Xing entered the hotel and took the elevator to the third floor. When Kang Jicheng saw the number on the elevator, he heaved a sigh of relief and quickly ran up the stairs. When he reached the third floor, he hid at the corner of the stairs and peeked. There was no sign of Chen Xing in the corridor. Kang Jicheng couldn't help but frown. It seemed like Chen Xing had entered a room. Kang Jicheng didn't know which room it was. This was going to be troublesome. After hesitating for a moment, Kang Jicheng turned around and returned downstairs. He wanted to find out which room Yang Hong had booked at the service desk.
In the hotel room, Yang Hong, who had opened the door for Chen Xing, waited for Chen Xing to enter. She leaned against the wall behind the door and looked at Chen Xing seductively. I thought you wouldn't come. I was thinking that I would have waited for nothing this afternoon. I didn't even want to take a shower. I didn't expect that the more disappointed I was, the more pleasantly surprised I was.
Is that so? Chen Xing leaned against the wall with one hand and lowered his head to look at Yang Hong. He was much taller than Yang Hong. Since Yang Hong wasn't wearing heels in the room, the difference in height between them increased.
What else can I do? You didn't say that you would definitely come. Yang Hong chuckled and reached out to touch Chen Xing's face.
While Chen Xing and Yang Hong were in the room, Kang Jicheng was jumping up and down outside. He used Yang Hong's name at the service desk to find out which room Yang Hong had booked. Kang Jicheng took out a few red notes and gave them to the two staff at the service desk as tips. He asked them to keep it a secret and not say that anyone had asked about it. Then, he immediately returned to the third floor.
On the third floor, Kang Jicheng tiptoed to room 307. This was Yang Hong's room. Standing at the door, Kang Jicheng's expression was uncertain. He leaned against the door and eavesdropped for a while. Kang Jicheng cursed under his breath. He wasn't sure if the door was soundproof or if there was no commotion inside, but he couldn't hear anything.
Kang Jicheng didn't dare to stay at the door for long. He quickly walked away, but he didn't leave the third floor. He just stood at the corner of the stairs and looked around with an ugly expression. Kang Jicheng realized something that made him feel helpless. It was very difficult for him to take a photo of Chen Xing and Yang Hong together. The two of them entered the hotel one after the other. If the two of them were doing it in the room, they definitely wouldn't leave at the same time after they were done. He guessed that Chen Xing left first again.
Under such circumstances, Kang Jicheng had no way of taking a photo of the two of them together. Moreover, Kang Jicheng had to admit that even if he managed to take a photo of the two of them together, as long as it wasn't a photo of them in bed, it wouldn't be too damaging. Imagine the two of them dressed neatly. He said that they were here to have an affair, but when they said that they were here to discuss business, what could he say?
I've worked so hard to follow them for so many days. Today, I finally bumped into the two of them having a rendezvous at the hotel. Am I supposed to return empty-handed without even taking a photo? Kang Jicheng thought angrily. He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of any way to take a photo. Unless he entered the room, what else could he do? But entering the room was impossible.
Kang Jicheng's eyes were blinded by the light. He turned to look at the window beside the stairs. His eyes lit up. He walked to the window and looked out. He wanted to see if there were any buildings opposite the hotel. After taking a look, Kang Jicheng cursed his bad luck. There was a plaza opposite the hotel. But even if there were buildings, as long as Yang Hong and Yang Hong put on the curtains, he wouldn't be able to see anything even with the help of a telescope. In the blink of an eye, Kang Jicheng's joy at seeing Chen Xing enter the hotel disappeared.
Kang Jicheng didn't know how long he stood there, but he went downstairs again with a gloomy expression. This time, Kang Jicheng booked a room at the service desk. After confirming that there was an empty room next to Yang Hong's, Kang Jicheng immediately asked for that room.
In Yang Hong's room, the two of them were talking. They didn't know that there was a pair of eyes staring at them from outside.
How long has your husband been away from home? Chen Xing saw Yang Hong's fiery gaze and teased her. Don't mention it.
Don't even mention it. I stayed at home for five or six days during the Spring Festival. Then, I went out again. He said that he was running his business all over the world. I was too lazy to ask him how much money he made in a year, and if he was going to be on the Forbes list soon. Hmph, on New Year's Eve, he went out to drink with a few friends. When he came back, he wanted to be intimate with me, but as soon as his hand touched me, I slapped his paw away. He lost his interest and fell asleep after glancing at me. For the next few days, he simply slept in the guest room.
Yang Hong pursed her lips. Other than the marriage certificate that symbolized their relationship, she and her husband had no other feelings for each other. In her eyes, other than their son, all that was left was power. Her son was her flesh and blood, and power was something she was obsessed with.
Your husband wants to live a married life with you. That's only right and proper. How could you refuse? Chen Xing heard Yang Hong's words and couldn't help but laugh.
In my eyes, he's no different from a stranger. I haven't seen him many times in a year. When we lie together, I feel like I'm lying next to someone I don't know. If he wants to do it with me, do you think I'll agree? I don't even know how many women he has seduced outside. Now that he's back, he wants to touch me? Yang Hong's face was cold.
Chen Xing didn't say much. As an outsider, he didn't have much to say about other people's family matters.
Let's not talk about him. It'll affect my mood. If it wasn't for the fact that I don't want to affect my future, I would have divorced him directly. Yang Hong snorted. A stable family was also the standard of a government official. Yang Hong didn't want to have the word 'divorce' hanging over her head. That wouldn't be good for her future.
Looking at Chen Xing, Yang Hong's gaze turned charming. Chen Xing, you've seen how hard I've worked these two days.
What hard work? Chen Xing was taken aback.
Didn't you want me to prove my ability? These two days, I started a competition for primary and secondary school teachers in the city. I even invited the city's television station to report on it. Why aren't you concerned at all? Yang Hong pouted, acting coquettishly.
It's only been a few days. You're too impatient. Chen Xing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. You can't achieve results in a day or two. You should calm down and do your work patiently. As long as you have the heart, I believe that you will achieve results. Your current impatient attitude won't do.
Fine, fine. I won't be impatient. I'll take it slow. That should be fine. Anyway, I remember your promise to me. You have to help me get back on track. Otherwise, women tend to hold grudges. If you don't fulfill your promise, I'll remember it. Yang Hong chuckled.
If I really don't fulfill my promise, what will you do? Chen Xing looked at Yang Hong with interest.
If you don't fulfill your promise, I'll … I'll … Yang Hong hesitated for a while. She didn't know what to say. She thought about it carefully. She really didn't have anything to threaten Chen Xing with. What she said just now was just a casual remark. Chen Xing's question really made her speechless. Her gaze fell on the thing in her hand. Yang Hong smiled charmingly. I'll bite off that thing of yours. Let's see what you'll do in the future.
It's said that a woman's heart is the most vicious.
I can't bear to spout nonsense.
Yang Hong's expression was charming. The two talked slowly. Unknowingly, they moved to the side of the bed.
…
When everything calmed down, Chen Xing was so tired that he didn't want to move. He didn't have any energy left in his body. He hadn't had lunch yet. His stomach was growling with hunger.
Chen Xing, what's wrong? In the past, you were always full of energy and vigor after your business. Why are you so tired today? Yang Hong leaned over from behind.
I haven't had lunch. How can I not be tired? Chen Xing said weakly.
You haven't had lunch? Yang Hong was surprised. Then, she asked with concern. Do you want me to call to order food for you? It'll be here soon. Just fill your stomach first.
Forget it. There's no need. I'll eat something on the way back. Chen Xing shook his head.
Then remember to eat. Don't go hungry. Yang Hong said with concern. Then, she smiled. Don't tell me you didn't even have lunch just to see me earlier.
If you think that makes you feel a little more satisfied, then you can think that way. Chen Xing rolled his eyes. He wouldn't say that he was forced to pretend to be her boyfriend. He didn't even have lunch after failing to pretend to be her boyfriend.
You men are like this. You don't even know how to say something to make a woman happy. Can't you just let me be satisfied? Yang Hong pinched Chen Xing and chided.
Alright, I have to get up and wash up. It's already 1pm. Chen Xing ignored Yang Hong's words. He looked at the time and smiled.
Just lie down for a while more. When you're done, you have to be affectionate for a while. That's the way to be truly considerate to a woman. You guys always like to fall asleep after doing it, or just leave after patting your butt. Actually, what women care about the most is the warmth at the end, understand? Yang Hong said coquettishly.
As soon as Yang Hong finished speaking, Chen Xing's phone on the bedside table rang. He took it and saw that it was Xiao Yuanqing. Chen Xing picked it up. Yuanqing, what's up?
Mayor Chen, Chief Prosecutor Cheng was in a car accident. He's in the hospital now. Xiao Yuanqing sounded anxious over the phone.
What? Chen Xing sat up in shock. Yang Hong, who was leaning on his back, fell onto the bed. She almost screamed. Luckily, Yang Hong quickly covered her mouth.
Chen Xing couldn't care less about Yang Hong. He sat on the bed in a daze. Then, he jumped up from the bed and said to Xiao Yuanqing, "Yuanqing, go to the hospital first. I'll be there soon. We must try our best to save him.
Mayor, I know. I'm already on my way to the hospital. " Xiao Yuanqing nodded. This was a serious matter. Anyone would know that they had to save Cheng Rong Jiang's life first.
Chen Xing hung up the phone and rushed into the bathroom to take a shower. Then, he came out and put on his clothes. He wanted to rush to the hospital immediately.
Chen Xing, who's in trouble? Yang Hong asked curiously.
Cheng Rong Jiang was in a car accident. I have to go to the hospital immediately. Chen Xing answered absent-mindedly. Why would Cheng Rong Jiang get into a car accident out of nowhere? This was like a bolt from the blue to Chen Xing, who had just pulled Cheng Rong Jiang to his side.
Cheng Rong Jiang? Chief Prosecutor Cheng? Yang Hong opened her mouth in shock. This was a serious piece of news.
Seeing Chen Xing put on his clothes and leave in a hurry without saying goodbye, Yang Hong didn't say anything. This was a serious matter. She could understand Chen Xing. Of course, Yang Hong didn't know about the fight between Chen Xing and the other city leaders. She also knew that Cheng Rong Jiang had just been pulled to his side by Chen Xing.
Chen Xing had just stepped into the elevator when the door next door opened gently. Kang Jicheng stood at the door with a gloomy and slightly flushed face. Kang Jicheng had drunk. Knowing that Chen Xing and Yang Hong were in the room next door, Kang Jicheng's body couldn't help but move. He drank all three cans of beer in the pantry in the room.
He stared at room 318. Chen Xing had already left. Yang Hong was still there. Kang Jicheng was silent. No one knew what he was thinking. Occasionally, a hint of madness flashed across his face. Then, there was a hint of struggle. Desire and rationality were fighting in his mind.
I didn't get the photo today. I have to collect some interest. Kang Jicheng's lips curled into a cold smile. His desire had won over his rationality. He had been drooling over Yang Hong for a long time. Last time, he dared to drug Yang Hong, which proved that he was a person who would stop at nothing. Today, he followed Yang Hong and failed to take a photo. He was not willing to leave empty-handed. Now that Yang Hong was alone in the hotel room, how could Kang Jicheng miss such a good opportunity?
Kang Jicheng knocked on the door of Yang Hong's room and waited quietly.
Weren't you in a hurry to go to the hospital? Why did you come back? When Yang Hong heard the knock on the door, she mumbled to herself while still lying on the bed. She casually wrapped herself in the white bedsheet and walked over to open the door. At this moment, Yang Hong wasn't vigilant at all. Her first reaction was that Chen Xing had returned. She thought that Chen Xing had left something behind. As she walked over to open the door, she subconsciously glanced at the head of the bed. After all, besides Chen Xing, no one knew that she had booked a room in this hotel. Furthermore, the hotel staff wouldn't disturb her for no reason. Yang Hong wasn't vigilant at all. Other than wrapping herself in the bedsheet, she opened the door without wearing any clothes.
Seeing Kang Jicheng standing at the door, Yang Hong was stunned for a moment. She couldn't react in time.
Just as Yang Hong was about to scream and close the door, Kang Jicheng had already squeezed his way in. At fifty years old, his movements weren't any slower than a young man's.
Kang Jicheng entered the room. He didn't even wait for Yang Hong to close the door. Kang Jicheng locked the door from the inside. Staring at Yang Hong's body, Kang Jicheng's pupils instantly dilated. He had been drooling over this woman for a long time. Today, he finally had the chance to have her. The light in Kang Jicheng's eyes grew brighter and brighter.
What are you doing? Yang Hong subconsciously took a step back. She gripped the bedsheet tighter. She looked at Kang Jicheng's crazed eyes and was a little afraid.
Yang Hong, what do you think I'm doing? Kang Jicheng smiled sinisterly. In the past, I thought that you were pure and innocent. I hinted to you several times, but you were always indifferent, which made me think that you were a decent and chaste woman. I didn't expect that I was wrong. You're not a decent woman, but a hypocrite. You didn't even bother to talk to me, and in the blink of an eye, you hooked up with Chen Xing. Yang Hong, do you think that my position is too low and you don't care about it? If that's the case, you should at least tell me.
You … you're spouting nonsense. Who said that I'm in a relationship with Mayor Chen? Yang Hong glared at Kang Jicheng. Her cover was so feeble. Kang Jicheng had already appeared here. Then, the fact that she and Chen Xing had gotten a room at the hotel definitely couldn't be hidden from Kang Jicheng.
Ha, Chen Xing just walked out of your room. Do you still need to quibble? Kang Jicheng laughed mockingly and stared at Yang Hong. Don't tell me that you were talking business with Chen Xing in the room. Tsk tsk, talking business in bed. If word got out, it would probably be the headline of tomorrow's newspaper. Why don't we talk business in bed as well?
Kang Jicheng, I advise you not to do anything rash. If you dare to do that, you should know that you won't have a good ending. Mayor Chen might be fine, but you won't be able to keep your official title. Do you think that you can touch Mayor Chen with just this bit of evidence? Don't let your imagination run wild. Yang Hong looked at Kang Jicheng coldly and said with disdain.
However, even if I can't touch him, I think it's enough to cause a bad impact on him. Heh, I'm already an old man. In this lifetime, I'll probably stop at the deputy office. Anyway, I don't care about this official title anymore. Chen Xing is different. He's the representative of the younger generation. He has a strong background and a bright future ahead of him. Do you think Chen Xing is afraid of such things? Kang Jicheng sneered. Yang Hong, I don't ask for much today. I just want you to accompany me once. Just once, and I'll be satisfied. I promise I won't say anything after that.
So what if you say anything? You don't have any evidence. Do you think I'll believe you? If you have the ability, show me the evidence that we're together. Yang Hong took a few more steps back. She could tell that Kang Jicheng was still interested in her. At this point, Kang Jicheng knew that she was related to Chen Xing, yet he still dared to have designs on her. She felt that Kang Jicheng had lost his mind. His brain was no longer working. He was starting to stop thinking.
Without evidence, it was indeed hard to do anything. Kang Jicheng laughed.
Every time Yang Hong took a step back, he took a step forward. The closer he got to the bed, the happier he laughed. Yang Hong, even if you don't have any evidence, I'm already in this room. What do you think I should do? Can you chase me out?
I might not be able to chase you out, but I advise you to leave the room now. I'll pretend that nothing happened today. Yang Hong stared at Kang Jicheng. She clenched her fists. She was really worried that Kang Jicheng would do something rash today. Kang Jicheng was old. He was 50 years old, but he was still a man. She was just a weak woman. She might not be able to defeat him.
Pretend that nothing happened? Kang Jicheng acted as if he had heard a joke. He looked at Yang Hong, amused. Yang Hong, do you think you're a big shot now that you're with Chen Xing? Let me tell you, you're just a stinky woman who sells herself. Don't think too highly of yourself. You can be with Chen Xing, but you can't be with me? If you're willing to cooperate today, that's for the best. If not, then I'll have to use force. You're not a good woman. Why do you have to pretend to be so elegant?
Kang Jicheng, you drank in the afternoon. I think you're not sober anymore. I advise you to go back and sober up. Don't do anything that you'll regret. Yang Hong's heart trembled. She looked at Kang Jicheng, who looked like he had gone crazy. As she spoke, she moved towards the window. She was ready to open the window and shout. If she shouted in this room, no one would be able to hear her.
I'm still awake right now. If I can't get my hands on you, I won't be able to accept it. Since you can sleep with Chen Xing, why can't you sleep with me? You've already been touched by others, so why do you care about one more? If you serve me well, do you think I'll mistreat you? If you want to be the bureau chief, it's not like I can't fight for it for you. One more person means more power. Besides, even if you have Chen Xing as your backing, the Provincial Department is too far away for Chen Xing to help. I can fight for some benefits for you in the Provincial Department. Kang Jicheng smiled. He maintained that same smile on his face.
Kang Jicheng, don't think of me as such a despicable person. Just because of what you said, I can take advantage of anyone but you. You old b * stard, I haven't settled the score with you for drugging me. How dare you do this? Do you think no one can deal with you? Yang Hong said angrily.
Of course I know someone can deal with me. Isn't it Chen Xing? Aiyo, you've become his lover. I'm so scared.
Yang Hong stared coldly at Kang Jicheng. She felt that Kang Jicheng had really gone crazy this afternoon. Looking at him, he didn't look like he was drunk. However, that crazed look in his eyes made her feel fear from the bottom of her heart. Yang Hong regretted not being more vigilant and opening the door so casually. Now, she had gotten herself into big trouble.
Kang Jicheng, I don't know if you were drunk in the afternoon. It's not too late for you to leave now. We'll pretend that nothing happened this afternoon. I'll also forget about you drugging me in the past. How about that? Yang Hong looked at Kang Jicheng with a trace of disappointment in her heart.
Is that so? Should I thank you for not being calculative with me? Kang Jicheng laughed.
Yang Hong's heart tightened again. Kang Jicheng wouldn't give up. She could only think of a way to save herself. Just as Yang Hong was about to lean against the window, Kang Jicheng unexpectedly pounced on her. Yang Hong screamed, and Kang Jicheng quickly covered her mouth. Yang Hong used one hand to hit Kang Jicheng, while the other hand tightly held onto the bedsheet that covered her body. Yang Hong was already in a weak position. How could she resist Kang Jicheng's two hands with one hand? With her mouth covered by Kang Jicheng, Yang Hong stuttered and couldn't make a sound.
You want to run to the window to call for help? Do you think I can't tell? Kang Jicheng said proudly. He was hit a few times by Yang Hong, but how strong could a woman be? Moreover, Yang Hong only had one hand. She couldn't exert much strength at all. It was like she was scratching an itch for Kang Jicheng.
Since the soft approach didn't work, you had to use the hard approach. Yang Hong, why are you doing this? Would you lose a piece of meat if you just gave in to me? Furthermore, I promised to keep your secret. This isn't a loss for you at all. Why are you so stubborn? Kang Jicheng's face was ferocious. He wanted to drag Yang Hong to the bed.
You old b * stard. I'd rather sleep with a beggar on the street than let you sleep with me. Yang Hong struggled angrily. The bedsheet on her body had already fallen to the ground.
Her figure was really good. Kang Jicheng's eyes lit up. He was almost drooling.
While Kang Jicheng was distracted, Yang Hong used all her strength to push Kang Jicheng away. She ran to the window, opened it, and wanted to scream. Unfortunately, her voice was stuck in her mouth. In the end, she couldn't scream. Kang Jicheng, who had caught up from behind, once again covered her mouth and held her down with one hand.
You b * tch. You won't let me have my way. I'm going to use force today. You like to play with excitement. Do it by the window, right? I'll let you have your way. Kang Jicheng sneered.
The two of them struggled by the window. Yang Hong's body's potential seemed to explode in an instant. Her strength suddenly increased, and she broke free from Kang Jicheng. Kang Jicheng couldn't hold her down for a moment. Yang Hong shouted for help as she pushed Kang Jicheng with all her might.
B * tch, how dare you shout. Kang Jicheng's eyes were bloodshot. Yang Hong's shout would definitely attract attention. At this moment, he hated himself for only having two hands. They were not enough.
You old b * stard. I'm going to shout. I'm going to ruin your reputation. Yang Hong shouted angrily.
Don't forget that you're here to get a room with Chen Xing today. The hotel's surveillance records show that Chen Xing was here as well. You can shout all you want. If this matter gets blown up, do you think it won't affect you? Kang Jicheng sneered. He could only threaten Yang Hong like this.
Kang Jicheng's words were effective. Yang Hong stopped shouting. Kang Jicheng's face lit up. He grabbed Yang Hong with one hand. You b * tch. Watch how I'll teach you a lesson today.
You old b * stard. I'll fight it out with you. Yang Hong quickly regained her composure. She glared at Kang Jicheng and pushed with both hands.
This push was like a bolt of lightning. Kang Jicheng screamed in fear. He had just grabbed Yang Hong's body. This push caught him off guard, and his body fell out of the window.
Yang Hong stared blankly at Kang Jicheng's body disappearing in front of her. What followed was a loud bang, as if a huge object had landed on the ground.
Someone had fallen from the building. Someone shouted downstairs, followed by a series of screams. Kang Jicheng's pitiful state made the women passing by scream in fear.
Yang Hong stood there in a daze. She didn't react for a moment. She had never thought of harming Kang Jicheng. Never.
I didn't do it on purpose. Yang Hong mumbled to herself.
I have to calm down. I have to calm down. A gust of cold wind blew. Yang Hong shivered. She seemed to have regained her composure. She muttered to herself and grabbed her head. Yang Hong told herself to calm down. She had to calm down. The more trouble she was in, the calmer she had to be.
She stood there and took a few deep breaths. Yang Hong didn't dare to poke her head out of the window. This was the third floor. She didn't know if Kang Jicheng had died from the fall. If he had, she was even more afraid of seeing Kang Jicheng's pitiful state. That would cause the emotions she had worked so hard to calm down to collapse again.
Yang Hong quickly walked to the bed and put on her clothes. However, when she saw the situation in the room, her brows furrowed. The bed was covered with traces of her and Chen Xing. In the bathroom, there were also towels that Chen Xing had used. When the police came, how was she going to explain herself? How was she going to say that Kang Jicheng had ill intentions towards her and that she had pushed Kang Jicheng downstairs when she resisted?
Yang Hong was unusually calm. She didn't know why she would think of these things in such a situation. However, without a doubt, these were all suspicious points that the police would find when they arrived. Yang Hong didn't want Chen Xing to be involved. She was also worried that Chen Xing would be affected. That wouldn't do her any good. It wasn't that she was so considerate of Chen Xing and was willing to sacrifice everything for Chen Xing. It was because Yang Hong understood that as long as Chen Xing was fine, Chen Xing would definitely have a way to settle the problem for her. Yang Hong was very clear about her priorities.
Chen Xing, where are you? Yang Hong called Chen Xing. At this time, she had to call Chen Xing first.
I'm on the way to the hospital. What's wrong? Chen Xing sensed that Yang Hong's tone wasn't normal, so he asked over the phone.
Just now, just as you left, Kang Jicheng came. I thought it was you, so I didn't pay attention and opened the door. I didn't think that Kang Jicheng would barge in and try to do something to me. As I was fighting with him, I accidentally pushed him downstairs. Yang Hong gave a concise and comprehensive account of what had happened.
There was a long silence on the phone. Chen Xing, who was on his way to the hospital, received a call like this midway. One could imagine how Chen Xing was feeling.
Is Kang Jicheng dead? After a long time, Chen Xing asked in a hoarse voice.
I don't know. I don't dare to look. I don't know if he's dead or alive. Yang Hong smiled bitterly. However, since he fell from the third floor, he probably didn't make it out alive.
Call the police first. I'll make the arrangements. Chen Xing said after thinking for a while.
Chen Xing, there are some traces we left in the house. What should we do? Yang Hong said worriedly.
Call the police first. It's okay. Leave the rest to me. Chen Xing comforted Yang Hong.
After receiving Chen Xing's instructions, Yang Hong heaved a sigh of relief. Even though she didn't know what would happen in the end, after hearing Chen Xing's words, Yang Hong felt much more at ease.
