I had said before, Zhu Hanmin took over Lin Duangxiong's position.

After Lin Duangxiong was transferred away.

He never gave up control of Wulan City.

Even later when Zhu Hanmin had become the top leader.

Many major and minor affairs in Wulan City still required consulting Lin Duangxiong, and only with his approval could these matters proceed.

Winning people over.

There were only two ways.

One was conquest through personal charm.

The second was aligning interests.

Compared to the former, the latter was obviously easier to achieve.

But at that time, most of the interests in Wulan City were held in Lin Duangxiong's hands, and it was nearly impossible for Zhu Hanmin to do anything.

At this time.

Zhu Kuang proposed the Starlight Night Market concept.

Zhu Hanmin saw profitability in this project.

After the establishment of the Starlight Night Market project, this government investment project was completely revamped into a privately-contracted market.

Along with cooperation from other units.

The Starlight Night Market became Zhu Hanmin's little goldmine for winning people over.

Using the money earned there.

He built his own team.

It's not an exaggeration to say that without the Starlight Night Market, Zhu Hanmin would still have little influence in Wulan City.

Of course, Zhao Yiping was well aware of the shady dealings involved.

The reason he had not taken action was firstly because he didn't have any evidence of the scandals related to the Starlight Night Market, and secondly, although Zhao Yiping had backing, he also did not dare to blatantly attack the Starlight Night Market due to the broad implications and extensive connections involved.

Messing with someone else's interests was no different from desecrating their ancestors' graves.

He didn't dare to touch it.

Now Chen Fang, the naive newcomer, had barged in.

He played along.

Even if something went wrong, the blame would fall solely on Chen Fang's shoulders, and it would have nothing to do with him.

"Then what should we do? We can't just do nothing, right?"

Secretary Lin Xia asked nervously.

Zhu Hanmin's gaze deepened.

He said, "Chen Fang is not to be feared, he is just a buffoon. The most fatal issue is Zhao Yiping behind him. Once we handle him, resolving the matter will be much easier."

"But... Zhao Yiping has backers, so we can't take action against him."

Lin Xia said.

Zhu Hanmin smiled wickedly.

He said, "Whatever Zhao Yiping has, I have too, and what he doesn't have, I also possess. Can't the people behind him become my people too?"

Having said this.

He returned to his desk.

Pulled open a drawer.

Took out a business card.

And slipped it into Lin Xia's hand.

He said, "Help me arrange a meeting with the person on this business card."

Lin Xia looked at the business card in her hand.

Besides a phone number, there was nothing else on it.

Although doubtful.

She still nodded her head.

She said, "Okay, leader, I'll handle it right away."

That night.

At eight o'clock in the evening.

In a secluded farmhouse private room.

Zhu Hanmin had already been waiting for almost fifteen minutes.

You should know, he was the top leader of Wulan City.

There weren't many people in the whole of Wulan City who could make him wait.

Yet, in such a wait, Zhu Hanmin did not show any signs of impatience.

With a creak.

The door of the private room was pushed open.

A woman dressed in a cheongsam elegantly walked in.

At that moment, even Zhu Hanmin, who wasn't particularly lecherous, couldn't take his eyes off her.

As the Municipal Party Secretary,

he had seen plenty of beautiful women, but this one in front of him was simply a natural stunner.

Curves where there should be curves, and slim where she should be slim.

Her figure was graceful and alluring, with a face that could bring a city to its knees. With every move she made, she radiated a seductive charm, the kind of woman that ignites a flame in one's heart with just one glance.

He instinctively stood up.

The woman took the initiative to extend her slender fingers and said in a coquettish voice, "Hello Secretary Zhu, my name is Yinyin."

"Um...where is brother Bao?"

Zhu Hanmin asked.

Yinyin gave a coy smile that brought all her charms to bear.

She said, "Brother Bao had to go to Jianning for some work. He planned to rush back after receiving your call, but he was too caught up to leave. So he sent me to accompany you, Secretary Zhu. You don't mind, do you?"

"Oh, oh, oh, not at all, not at all. I've long heard of Sister Yin's reputation, and seeing you today, I can truly say your reputation is well-deserved."

Zhu Hanmin politely said.

Yinyin, wearing a smile, gestured for Zhu Hanmin to sit down.

Zhu Hanmin said, "Regarding my visit here…"

Just as he was about to continue,

Yinyin suddenly interrupted him.

She said, "Secretary Zhu, let's not talk business just yet. Let's have dinner first, I'm starving."

Upon hearing this,

Zhu Hanmin quickly replied, "Then let's have the staff serve the dishes."

Yinyin smiled and said, "You really are considerate, Secretary Zhu."

After speaking,

she snapped her fingers.

A young waitress walked in.

Yinyin commanded, "Serve the dishes."

The waitress nodded.

After a few minutes,

the door to the private room was pushed open.

Several waitresses quickly set the table.

Yinyin personally poured Zhu Hanmin a glass of wine, and just as he was about to raise his glass,

she pressed down his hand and said, "Secretary Zhu, hold on, it's no fun to drink just the two of us. How about we find a few people to drink with us?"

"As the host wishes. If Miss Yinyin thinks it's necessary, then let's call them over."

Zhu Hanmin said.

Yinyin nodded her head,

and snapped her fingers again.

Footsteps could be heard outside the corridor.

Suddenly, four girls entered the private room, lined up neatly, bowed deeply at ninety degrees to Zhu Hanmin, and chorused, "Good evening, honored guest."

Seeing these four women, Zhu Hanmin found it hard to look away.

Their bodies were diverse, as were their clothes.

Even just standing there, the charm and aura each exuded were distinctly different.

The first woman had fiery red lips and hair styled in big waves; she wore a strappy body-hugging dress, standing gracefully, both sexy and commanding, exuding a strong mature appeal that stirred a powerful desire to conquer.

The second woman sported twin ponytails and wore a full set of a short JK skirt.

Especially the skirt,

it looked both fluffy and short.

Her long, slender legs had a breathtaking beauty.

Without a doubt, she was the so-called Lolita-style beauty.

The third beauty leaned more towards a sporty style.

Wearing a ponytail,

she had on a crop top and tight yoga pants.

Perhaps because she wasn't wearing underwear, the gap between her legs was accentuated, appearing quite full.

The last one,

was the kind of uniformed woman that Zhu Hanmin often saw within the system.

Wearing a white blouse and a black body-hugging skirt,

her figure tended more towards voluptuous.

Especially her large breasts, which pushed the blouse upwards.

The button at the chest endured immense pressure, stretched tight, as if it could burst open at any moment.
