"No need, I'll go myself!"

Chen Fang quickly shoved Du Hongchun behind him and strode towards the county mayor's office.

Under urgency, Du Hongchun shouted in the corridor, "Mayor Ding, Vice Mayor Chen is looking for you."

As soon as his voice fell,

Chen Fang pushed the door open.

The scene before him made him freeze.

He saw a woman sitting on Ding Mengxiang's thigh, her upper garments already undone, while Ding Mengxiang held her breasts, playing with them.

The woman wrapped her arms around Ding Mengxiang's neck with a coy look and spoke in a whiny voice, "Leader, stop playing, if you keep going, your little sister is going to get all wet... "

As soon as her voice fell,

The door suddenly opened.

Both of them separated as fast as if they had been electrocuted.

The woman quickly turned around and started fixing her clothes.

Ding Mengxiang was about to get angry when he saw the person in front of him was Chen Fang and started feeling a headache coming on.

"Comrade Chen Fang, don't you understand any rules? Entering someone's office without even knocking?"

Ding Mengxiang asked with some displeasure.

Chen Fang didn't say a word; after watching the woman hurriedly fix her clothes and rush out, he dragged the elder Yan Lao'ai into the room and said, "There's a reason for my intrusion, I ask for Mayor Ding's understanding."

Seeing Yan Lao'ai, Ding Mengxiang figured out most of it.

He frowned and asked, "What are you doing here again?"

Clearly, the identity of the county mayor still held significant deterrence for people like Yan Lao'ai.

He stammered, "Mayor Ding, the situation in Houtang Village has become very serious. If it's not addressed soon, there is bound to be an accident."

"An accident? What kind of accident? I've sent experts to deal with it, and they've said that Houtang Village will be safe at least until the summer arrives,"

Ding Mengxiang said nonchalantly as he lit a cigarette.

Yan Lao'ai looked anxious and said, "Mayor Ding, our families have lived on the mountain for generations; we know better than the experts whether the mountain will slide. At most, within a week, the landslide will happen, and then the entire Houtang Village will be gone."

With a "smack,"

Ding Mengxiang slapped the table,

and stood up abruptly,

yelling, "Yan Lao'ai, where do you think you are? This is the county government. If you keep spreading rumors, do you believe I can have you arrested?"

Being rebuked like this,

Yan Lao'ai was so scared that he dared not speak.

Chen Fang said, "Mayor Ding, given that Houtang Village has these concerns, I believe the county government should take action. If a serious accident does happen, none of us can bear the consequences."

"Take action? How to take action, you make it sound so easy,"

Ding Mengxiang said angrily and then suddenly had an idea.

He looked at Chen Fang and said, "Comrade Chen Fang, you are the vice mayor in charge of agriculture and rural areas. Logically, this is within your responsibilities. Since you have concerns, how about you take care of this matter?"

"Fine, I can go take a look first,"

Chen Fang agreed.

Upon hearing Chen Fang's agreement,

Ding Mengxiang couldn't conceal his joy. After thinking a moment, he said to his secretary Du Hongchun, "Go and call in Vice Mayor Wang."

"Yes!"

Du Hongchun nodded and left.

Chen Fang was surprised and asked, "Vice Mayor Wang? Which Vice Mayor Wang?"

At that, Ding Mengxiang laughed, sat down on the sofa, and said, "You might not know yet, but Director Zou of the Propaganda Department has been transferred. The Municipal Committee has decided that Vice Mayor Dai Lu will replace the director position, and the city has also sent someone to take over Vice Mayor Dai's position. Her name is Wang Yiyi; she just arrived this morning. It's the perfect opportunity for you to meet."

During the conversation,

a bustling woman walked in through the door.

She appeared to be in her mid-thirties,

wearing a loose ponytail that seemed very casual.

She wore a black tight-fitting sweater on her upper body and a pair of black straight-leg pants for the bottom.

Say what you will, although her outfit was quite plain, she had a sophisticated look, especially the rimless glasses on the bridge of her nose paired with her cool face, giving both a competent and pure desire vibe.

If anything caught the eye most, it was the full, prominent breasts in front.

To say she was the cream of the crop among married women would not be an exaggeration.

"Mayor Ding, you called for me?"

As soon as Wang Yiyi came in, she asked Ding Mengxiang without looking around.

When Ding Mengxiang saw her, his eyes lit up, and he stood up with a smile, saying, "Vice Mayor Wang, please take a seat."

Wang Yiyi remained unmoved.

She said, "I'll stand, it's fine as long as County Chief Ding has instructions for me."

"No rush."

Ding Mengxiang approached, grabbed Wang Yiyi's wrist, and it was clear that a look of disgust appeared on her face. However, she didn't resist and, following his pull, sat down on the sofa.

Ding Mengxiang pointed at Chen Fang, who was standing to the side, and said, "Comrade Yiyi, let me introduce you, this is Comrade Chen Fang."

"Deputy County Chief Chen, hello."

Wang Yiyi stood up and greeted Chen Fang with a nod.

Chen Fang also nodded back at Wang Yiyi.

Then,

with a smile on his face, Ding Mengxiang briefly introduced the situation in Houtang Village.

He said, "Comrade Yiyi, you're in charge of the county's emergency management department. Since the situation in Houtang Village has been reported, why don't you and Comrade Chen Fang make a trip there and handle the matter, can you?"

Without hesitation, Wang Yiyi nodded and asked, "When do we leave?"

"In a bit. Comrade Chen Fang, could you step out for a moment? I have something to discuss with Deputy County Chief Wang."

Since Ding Mengxiang had already agreed,

Chen Fang didn't have any further demands.

Once he turned and left and the door was closed,

Ding Mengxiang inched closer to Wang Yiyi.

Knowing what Ding Mengxiang intended, Wang Yiyi promptly said, "County Chief Ding, just give the order if you have any instructions, I'll gather my things and head out soon."

Ding Mengxiang suddenly placed his hand on the back of Wang Yiyi's hand.

Wang Yiyi flinched and instinctively withdrew her hand.

Seeing her reaction,

Ding Mengxiang wasn't angry.

He smiled and said, "Comrade Yiyi, we are old acquaintances. Sending you to Houtang Village is all for your own good."

"Oh? What do you mean by that, County Chief Ding?" she asked, somewhat puzzled.

Ding Mengxiang replied, "I've already sent experts to Houtang Village, and there are basically no issues. Your going there is just a formality, to give the villagers an explanation. Just have a quick look and come back. I'll credit you for it."

Soon as he finished speaking,

Ding Mengxiang's hand moved towards hers again.

Upon seeing this,

Wang Yiyi immediately stood up and said, "If there's nothing else, County Chief Ding, I'll be going then."

"Alright... sure, then off you go. We can talk more when you get back."

While it was a pity,

Ding Mengxiang wasn't in a hurry.

Watching Wang Yiyi's ample figure as she turned to leave, he couldn't help licking his lips and murmured, "Pretending to be prim and proper! Do you think you can escape from the palm of my hand? Sooner or later, I'll have you."

Downstairs at the county government building.

Two cars were already waiting at the entrance.

One was Wang Yiyi's official car, and the other belonged to Chen Fang.

After a short wait,

Wang Yiyi appeared at the entrance carrying a bag.

Chen Fang promptly called out, "Deputy County Chief Wang," but Wang Yiyi acted as if she hadn't heard him, got straight into her car, and didn't even nod her head.

"What's the situation? Why the cold shoulder?" Chen Fang muttered.

Standing beside him, Qin Yi said, "She's not just cold; she's also in a bad mood."

"Why is she in a bad mood?" Chen Fang asked.

Leaning close to Chen Fang's ear, Qin Yi disclosed, "Her husband had an affair, she caught him red-handed in bed, just got divorced, gave up her chance to become head of the city's Women's Federation, and was transferred to our Jinde County."

"Hm? How do you know all of this?" Chen Fang asked curiously.

Qin Yi chuckled and said, "Good news stays inside; bad news travels a thousand miles. She hadn't even arrived, and the gossip had already spread through the office."

Chen Fang sighed and shook his head, "Ah, another bitter woman. It looks like this assignment won't be easy..."
