Chapter 17

Wang Tiancheng stood outside the township chief's office, listening with his phone for a long time. He truly admired this township chief, who, despite being in his forties, had such remarkable abilities, lasting for a full half hour. Only when there was no more noise in the room did Wang Tiancheng leave and return to Miao Xiaoxiao's luxury car.

In the car, Wang Tiancheng half-lay on the back seat, speechless. As a second-generation official, he actually eavesdropped at the window. However, Wang Tiancheng felt it was not in vain, as he at least learned about the township chief's character and saw through him, which would make future actions easier.

Time passed minute by minute. Just as Wang Tiancheng was about to fall asleep, he felt a sudden brightness. The light in front of the Party Secretary's office turned on, and Sun Juan stood at the door, shouting loudly, "Someone, someone has entered the Party Secretary's office!"

As she spoke, Sun Juan directly rushed into the Party Secretary's office. The township chief, Zhou Ren, quickly followed.

Party Secretary Song Hong was woken by the noise and seemed to have been intruded upon. Fortunately, she was dressed, or she would have been exposed. Song Hong walked out of the bedroom and, looking at Township Chief Zhou Ren and Sun Juan behind him, said, "What happened? What are you doing here?"

Song Hong saw that Zhou Ren was holding a stick, looking ready to fight, which puzzled her. What was Zhou Ren up to, coming to the Party Secretary's room in the middle of the night? Wasn't that too much? Song Hong's face turned quite ugly.

"Party Secretary Song, we saw someone enter your room. For your safety, we broke in. Did they enter your bedroom?" Zhou Ren said boldly, raising the stick in his hand. He knew Wang Tiancheng was very capable.

"You are too presumptuous. What do you want? Get out," Song Hong said angrily. The bedroom was like her private chamber, and she was the Party Secretary. Zhou Ren was being too presumptuous, challenging her authority. Despite being a woman, Song Hong had been in office for many years and knew the ways of the political world. Many things could not be compromised.

"Party Secretary Song, to be honest, we saw Wang Tiancheng enter your room and didn't come out for a long time. I suspect you two were up to no good," Zhou Ren said quite rudely. At this point, Zhou Ren didn't need to be polite, and he had always been dissatisfied with Song Hong. Why should a young woman be above him? Zhou Ren wanted to completely drive Song Hong away.

Song Hong was a smart person and understood immediately. This was a trap to catch her in the act. But she knew there was no one in the bedroom. Even so, she would not back down. A woman's bedroom, especially the Party Secretary's bedroom, could not be entered so easily. Song Hong would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen.

Song Hong smiled slightly and said, "Show me the evidence, or I will report you for slander."

"Party Secretary Song, look at this. It's real," Sun Juan said, taking out her phone and showing a video.

Song Hong couldn't help but look. The video showed Wang Tiancheng helping her into the Party Secretary's office, and then it ended. Although the video was short, it was enough to prove that Wang Tiancheng had entered the Party Secretary's office.

"Party Secretary Song, for your safety, I left my phone on the wall opposite your room. But when I woke up, I didn't see Wang Tiancheng come out, so I broke in," Sun Juan said straightforwardly.

This time, Song Hong was shocked. Sun Juan had been monitoring her all along, which was terrifying. She glared at Sun Juan, and if looks could kill, Song Hong would have killed her without hesitation.

"Are you looking for Wang Tiancheng? Fine, I'll tell you. You can enter the bedroom, but if you can't find him, you'll have to give me an explanation, especially Sun Juan, for slander. I'll make sure you go home," Song Hong said fiercely, stepping aside to let them in.

"Who's looking for me? You don't even let people sleep at night. I heard you from far away," Wang Tiancheng walked in slowly from the door, smiling at the three people in the office.

Song Hong wasn't too surprised, but Zhou Ren and Sun Juan were. They couldn't understand how Wang Tiancheng could appear at the door, and Zhou Ren knew there were no windows in the bedroom. The only way out was the door, unless there was another door inside, which was impossible.

Zhou Ren glared at Sun Juan and then smiled, saying, "Party Secretary Song, it's a misunderstanding, purely a misunderstanding. I apologize for disturbing your rest." Zhou Ren wanted to leave, wishing he could disappear into the ground.

"Township Chief Zhou, why don't you check? If there's someone else, you'll have come for nothing," Song Hong said, her anger subsiding, a smile on her face, especially seeing Zhou Ren's embarrassed and ugly expression, which made her smile even more brightly.

Zhou Ren was stunned. Could there be someone else? Wang Tiancheng had only been there for a few days, and it was unlikely he was that close to Song Hong. Thinking this, he looked back at Sun Juan and said, "Go in and check." Zhou Ren didn't want to go in, as it was Song Hong's room, so he wanted Sun Juan to go.

Sun Juan looked at Zhou Ren, took her phone, and slowly walked in. A few minutes later, she came out, shaking her head, clearly indicating no one was inside.

Zhou Ren was completely deflated. Looking at Song Hong, he said, "Party Secretary Song, I won't disturb you anymore. I'll give you a satisfactory answer." Zhou Ren was about to leave.

"Township Chief Zhou, wait a moment. There's a small matter I need your help with," Wang Tiancheng said loudly, seeing Zhou Ren about to leave. Zhou Ren's actions made Wang Tiancheng very angry. Originally, Wang Tiancheng didn't want to play the recording, but seeing Zhou Ren's audacity, he decided to stand up for Song Hong, whom he now considered like a sister. In Fenglin County, Wang Tiancheng and Song Hong had a good relationship, though Miao Xiaoxiao was a different story.

Zhou Ren was stunned, not understanding what Wang Tiancheng wanted. He gripped the stick in his hand tightly, looking at Wang Tiancheng.

Wang Tiancheng slowly took out his phone, opened the recorder, and the embarrassing sounds began.

Zhou Ren and Sun Juan's faces turned quite ugly, especially when they heard the sweet, indecent exchanges. Zhou Ren felt his face burning. He glared at Wang Tiancheng and said, "You were eavesdropping. You are despicable."

"Township Chief Zhou, I can't compare to you. Your appetite is much bigger than mine. I've decided to split the recording into two parts. One will be sent to the disciplinary committee, and the other will be uploaded online," Wang Tiancheng said casually.
