Xu Suyi was uneasy, "Secretary Song..."

"Drink up, whatever you have to say, say it after you finish drinking."

Song Guanchao's smile appeared like a demon to her.

She knew that she had to drink this wine today.

If she didn't, he would directly investigate her parents!

Xu Suyi wanted to plead for his forgiveness, "Secretary Song..."

"Drink!"

Song Guanchao interrupted her again.

Xu Suyi felt a chill in her heart.

She understood, even if she wanted to seek forgiveness, she had to drink first.

In a brief moment, many thoughts flashed through her mind.

Leave here immediately and contact Director Ding!

But, would Director Ding protect her?

Would she offend Secretary Song for a mere small secretary?

No, there's also Secretary Chu, the deputy director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, and the director of the Tax Bureau...

She definitely wouldn't.

After all, Ding Lingyan herself was just a deputy director.

Quickly analyzing the pros and cons, Xu Suyi knew that she had no retreat and no right to negotiate with him.

All she could do was follow Song Guanchao's instructions.

Whatever Song Guanchao wanted her to do, she had to do.

She grabbed the wine glass, closed her eyes, and forced it down.

"Ugh~"

Xu Suyi felt nauseous, quickly covered her mouth, and forcibly suppressed the urge to vomit.

Si Qingqing looked drunkenly at the documents on the table, wanting to know what was on them.

Why, after seeing these, did she suddenly choose to drink?

Song Guanchao didn't give her time to think and said, "Director Chen, pour them some wine."

Chen Jie came over and filled their glasses with white wine, feeling a bit sympathetic.

Meanwhile, she was curious about how these two had offended Song Guanchao.

Looking at the filled glasses, Si Qingqing, without hesitation, grabbed hers and drank, perhaps embracing recklessness.

Xu Suyi looked pitifully at Song Guanchao.

She had already drunk over half a kilogram and drank so fiercely that her pupils were slightly dilated.

If she continued drinking, she feared she'd need to be hospitalized.

But no matter how she looked, Song Guanchao remained silent.

Xu Suyi felt desperate and could only take her wine glass and sip it slowly.

"Bang!"

Beside her, Si Qingqing's wine glass shattered on the ground, and she collapsed on the table, unconscious.

Song Guanchao didn't even glance at her.

When Xu Suyi had drank only half, she couldn't hold back any longer, bent over and vomited all over the floor.

The room was filled with the strong scent of wine.

Song Guanchao extinguished his cigarette, saying, "Director Chen, Director Yu, you can leave now; I'll invite you for dinner another day."

"Alright."

"Secretary Song, we'll take our leave."

The two women left respectfully, feeling significantly more relaxed.

They knew that Song Guanchao invited them tonight just to back things up.

After the two women left, Song Guanchao said, "Take her home first."

Chu Xiao'e glanced at the still-vomiting Xu Suyi, nodded, and went over to support the half-conscious Si Qingqing and took her away.

Song Guanchao walked over to Xu Suyi and grabbed her hair to lift her head, making her face look up at him.

Xu Suyi's skin was already fair, but now she appeared even more pale after vomiting.

Her dilated pupils regained focus, and remnants of vomit lingered at the corners of her mouth.

"Secretary Song..."

Just as she started to speak, Song Guanchao suddenly grabbed the wine bottle and forced it into her mouth.

"No, please, no..."

She struggled desperately, but Song Guanchao's hand felt like an iron clamp, making her powerless to resist.

White wine poured into her mouth, she desperately spat it out, soon choking till her mouth and nose were covered, violently coughing.

Song Guanchao didn't stop and didn't care how much she could hold. He emptied one bottle, then continued with a second.

Then a third...

When the last drop of wine was poured out, Xu Suyi was soaked with white wine—on her face, clothes, and hair.

She kneeled on the ground, clothes disheveled, hair scattered, face full of fear and terror, arms hugging herself, body trembling, looking like she had been abused.

Song Guanchao pulled up a chair, sat in front of her, took out his phone, turned on the recording mode, and placed it aside, saying, "Speak."

"Secretary Song..."

"My patience is limited; you have only one chance."

"You can choose not to speak; just bear the consequences yourself."

Having said all he needed to say, Song Guanchao waited for her decision.

Though Xu Suyi had drunk a lot, her mind was extraordinarily clear.

She knew what Song Guanchao wanted to ask.

She also knew she had no choice.

"It was Director Ding..."

"Full name."

"Director Ding Lingyan asked me to keep an eye on Director Si Qingqing and get some leverage from her."

"Last Monday, Director Si Qingqing took me to the beauty parlor for a SPA, and I felt it was an opportunity, so I told Director Ding Lingyan."

"Director Ding Lingyan instructed me to find a way to videotape Director Si Qingqing's private SPA process, so I did, and handed the video to Director Ding Lingyan."

"Director Ding Lingyan then used the video to blackmail Director Si Qingqing..."

She narrated it in detail, from the start to the process, telling the story in full.

"Secretary Song, I've told you everything I know. Please spare me and don't go after my parents; they have nothing to do with this..."

"Take off your clothes."

Xu Suyi was dumbfounded, "Wha... what?"

Seeing Song Guanchao's expression, she suddenly felt desolate.

She had said everything, but he still wasn't going to let her go.

She clutched her wine-soaked shirt, undoing the buttons one by one, taking it off.

Under the white shirt was a light-colored bra.

Her chest wasn't large, but was small and perky.

"Continue." Song Guanchao said.

She felt humiliated inside, yet dared not refuse.

Removing the bra, she used her hands to cover herself, her body trembling.

"Continue."

Continue... beyond that was below.

Drip, drop.

Xu Suyi bowed her head, tears dripping onto the floor, but it did not elicit any compassion or empathy from Song Guanchao.

She swayed, stood up, turned aside, covering her chest with one hand, the other undoing the buttons on her pants, slowly taking them off to reveal the light-colored underwear.

She lifted her legs out of the fallen pant legs, filled with anger, humiliation, and sorrow.

"Continue."

Again she heard the word and, despite having guessed Song Guanchao's final intent, she couldn't help but feel utterly hopeless.

She clutched her underwear, just about to remove it, when Song Guanchao suddenly said, "Go lock the door, lest someone sees later."

Xu Suyi's lips were nearly bleeding from the biting.

She went over to lock the door and when she turned back, she suddenly raised her head and with tear-filled eyes, stared straight at Song Guanchao.

Her eyes held despair and humiliation, finally transforming into resentment.

She seemed to embrace recklessness, releasing the hand on her chest, walked up to him, and took off the underwear, displaying her naked body before him.

Song Guanchao tapped the table, "Lie down."
