Song Chaoyang stood up with a smile and said, "Yes, I guessed that you didn't know, so I specially told you."
Yu Heping also stood up and nodded. "Then I'll leave you to work. I'll go back too."
It was rare that Song Chaoyang didn't see him off. He said indifferently, "I'm very busy, so I won't see you off. Take care!"
Yu Heping's heart sank. He knew that Song Chaoyang's patience with him had reached its limit and was on the verge of breaking off. This was the last time that Song Chaoyang would give him face. If this happened again, Song Chaoyang would definitely fall out with him. With his dwindling power and Song Chaoyang's growing prestige, if he really broke off with him, the political environment he would face would worsen to an unacceptable level. Why should he ruin his current good situation for a small secretary like Li Rui?
He thought this through and took a deep breath. He opened the door and walked out without looking at Li Rui, who was busy at his desk.
"Mayor!" Li Rui suddenly called out to him.
Yu Heping looked back and asked with a sullen face, "Why did you call me?"
Li Rui walked up to him and asked with a smile, "Mayor, do you remember that Qingyang Hotel used to have a waitress named Zheng Meili?"
Yu Heping's heart skipped a beat when he heard Zheng Meili's name. He looked at him deeply and asked, "Who is Zheng Meili? How come I don't remember? Why are you asking me about her? "
Li Rui pretended to look at the door first. Yu Heping followed his gaze and looked back, but the door was empty. There was no one there.
Li Rui lowered his voice and said, "Zheng Meili used to be a receptionist in the Qingyang Hotel's VIP building. She was pretty and smart. I heard that the city leaders liked her very much. However, because of this, she was very arrogant and offended many colleagues in the Qingyang Hotel …"
Yu Heping frowned. He knew that Li Rui wasn't finished. The main point was at the end, so he didn't ask and listened patiently.
Li Rui continued, "Many people are watching her in the dark. Once, someone saw her coming out of the East Side of the third floor of the VIP building. She was acting sneakily and threw a plastic bag into a trash can outside the VIP building. As soon as she left, a stray cat came out of nowhere. The stray cat thought that she had thrown food, so it went into the trash can and took out the plastic bag. It tore it open and saw that there was no food inside. The stray cat left again. The person who witnessed this was very curious about what Zheng Meili threw, so he sneaked over to take a look. He didn't know if he didn't see it, but he was shocked when he saw it … "
Yu Heping's heart was pounding when he heard this. His face was a little pale. He forced himself to remain calm and asked, "What was inside?"
Li Rui said casually and casually, "There was a used condom inside. There was also a pack of wet wipes."
Yu Heping suddenly shuddered, as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his head. His whole body instantly turned cold. Others didn't know about Zheng Meili's relationship with the so-called city leaders, but he knew. Zheng Meili only had a relationship with one city leader, and it was an intimate relationship. That city leader was himself. He and Zheng Meili had been lovers for half a year. During this period, they had been intimate in the room of Qingyang Hotel. That room was on the third floor. Every time they did it, Zheng Meili was the one who prepared the contraceptives, and she was the one who personally threw them away and destroyed them. She had always been very secretive and would never let outsiders know. But now that Li Rui said this, it meant that her relationship with him was already known. Hiss … It can't be?
Yu Heping secretly sucked in a breath of cold air. His heart was shaken, and his mind was in a mess. For a moment, he lost the ability to think. After a long time, he came back to his senses and thought carefully, Who witnessed this? Did he see Zheng Meili go out from my room? If he didn't see it, it means that this person didn't know that Zheng Meili was in a relationship with me. Even if he saw it and knew that Zheng Meili was in a relationship with me, he couldn't use that condom as evidence to do anything to me. If he really wanted to do anything to me, he would have done it to me or Zheng Meili long ago. Now that nothing has happened, does it mean that the person also knows that there is no evidence?
He understood this point and felt relieved. He thought again, It must be like this! That person just happened to see Zheng Meili's little trick, but he didn't have any bad intentions towards Zheng Meili and me. Otherwise, he would have taken that condom to a hospital to do a DNA test. After confirming that it was my DNA, he would have taken the opportunity to blackmail me. But until now, nothing has happened. In other words, I am still very safe. Thinking of this, there was still a trace of fear, Sure enough, there is no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world. It's just like the old saying, 'If you don't want people to know, don't do it in the first place.' Either don't do it, or if you do it, it will definitely be known. Damn, I was so careful with Zheng Meili, but someone saw it and found out. What else can I say?
There was a trace of relief in his heart. "It's all thanks to the divine monk who told me my fortune. He predicted that there was a sinister person around me who brought bad omens. He told me to stay away from her. I followed his instructions and drove Zheng Meili out of the Qingyang Hotel and arranged for her to go somewhere else. If I were to still be with her, there would definitely be more evidence of my relationship with her. Who knows, I might even be caught red-handed."
After letting his imagination run wild for a long time, Yu Heping realized that he was still talking to Li Rui. Thinking that he had been in a daze for so long, he wondered if he would be suspected by this kid. His heart beat faster and faster, and he looked up at Li Rui, only to see him looking at him with a faint smile. He didn't know why, but when he saw his expression, a possibility suddenly appeared in his mind: Could it be that the so-called eyewitness in the incident just now was himself?
As Yu Heping thought of this, he suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment. He thought to himself, This kid is also often active in the Qingyang Hotel and the VIP building, so it's possible that he coincidentally saw Zheng Meili throw out the trash. But is he so bored as to stare at the trash that Zheng Meili threw out? Also, that's not right. The leader he works for is Song Chaoyang, and Song Chaoyang lives on the second floor. It's impossible for him to go to the third floor and see Zheng Meili come out from the third floor's eastern area. It's really strange.
Yu Heping pretended to be calm and sneered, "Xiao Rui, where did you hear this from? You're the First Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and you're also a man. Do you also like to gossip like those gossipy women? Also, what do you mean by telling me this? What does this have to do with me? "
Li Rui said, "The person who told me this has already resigned from the Qingyang Hotel. I was the one who asked him to resign because I found out that he knew about the private relationship between the leader and the waitress. If this matter were to spread, it wouldn't be good for the leader or himself. He would suffer crazy revenge, so for everyone's sake, I asked him to resign."
Yu Heping stared and asked, "You keep talking about the leader, as if the man who had sex with Zheng Meili was really a leader. Can't it be another male waiter? The Qingyang Hotel and the VIP building have more than just waitresses! "
Li Rui smiled and said, "That witness not only saw Zheng Meili come out from the third floor's eastern area, but also knew which room she came out from. And that room only has one leader."
Yu Heping's heart started to beat faster when she heard this. Her lips moved, but she didn't say anything. Was it really like what this thief said? Did someone really see Zheng Meili come out of her room and throw away the condom? In theory, it was possible. After all, there were many people coming in and out of the VIP building, especially waitresses. They could be seen everywhere. It was very possible that a waitress who happened to pass by saw Zheng Meili come out of her room. But even so, what could she do? Unless that person took the essence in the condom to do a DNA test, he could only say that he had no proof and couldn't do anything to her. Moreover, if that person dared to say something like that, she would arrest him for slander and send him to jail.
Yu Heping thought about this and calmed down. He looked at Li Rui and thought that this thief heard what the witness said and thought that he had something on her. That was why he suddenly made things difficult for her. But didn't he think about it? How could words based on hearsay be able to shake a mayor like her? She sneered and said, "Li Rui, you should just focus on your work. If you continue to blindly listen to rumors, you'll get yourself killed sooner or later." After she finished speaking, she ignored him and turned to leave.
He had already thought it through. He couldn't continue to be entangled with Li Rui. If he continued to be entangled with this topic, it would make him seem guilty. Since Li Rui couldn't do anything to him, he might as well leave.
Li Rui quickly chased after her and caught up with Yu Heping in the corridor outside. He said in a low voice, "Mayor, I've known about this for a long time, but I've been keeping the secret for that leader. I will continue to keep it a secret in the future. Of course, that's on the premise that that leader knows my good intentions and doesn't hurt me. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that I won't tell anyone."
Yu Heping suddenly stopped in his tracks. He turned around and looked at him with a gloomy face. After a while, he said, "What do you mean by this? Are you saying that I'm that leader? "
Li Rui faced his ferocious gaze without fear. Instead, he laughed and said, "I'm not sure about that. But I know that ever since Zheng Meili served that leader, she has been promoted like a rocket. Qingyang Hotel is a public institution under the Municipal Government's Hospitality Department. That's obvious."
Yu Heping's face darkened even more. He squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth. "Li Rui, you don't have any evidence and you're talking nonsense. Do you believe that I'll immediately have you arrested for defamation? Even Song Chaoyang can't protect you! "
