The Beauties Help Me Become the No.1 Official

"Mayor Hou has been placed under 'shuanggui'!"

Hiding behind the screen, Lin Fan was startled, piecing together Chen Jiayi's recent advance towards him, he vaguely sensed something was amiss. Still, there was much he didn't understand and could only continue to sneak peeks through the crack.

Upon hearing the news, Chen Jiayi didn't show the slightest surprise; she calmly sat back on the sofa, "Perhaps it's just for assisting in an investigation."

From her nonchalant tone, she must have already received the news. Or perhaps, all of this was within her expectations.

"What assisting in an investigation? I've already found out, it's about the corruption in the demolition compensation funds. All the project bosses have backed out, so this time, it looks set in stone."

Guo Baoming sat down beside Chen Jiayi, his rat-like eyes greedily gaping at her loose neckline: "But don't worry, I've been in cahoots with Old Hou, we're practically brothers. I'll surely find a way to fish him out, and even if I truly can't, I'll take good care of my brother's wife."

As he spoke, he actually placed his hand on Chen Jiayi's knee and began to inch towards her thigh.

"Vice Mayor Guo, are you planning to take care of your brother's wife in bed?"

Chen Jiayi swatted away Guo Baoming's hand.

"Your Old Hou can't come out. As a woman, you need a backer for the future, and I am your best support. Shouldn't I take good care of you, in and out of bed?"

Guo Baoming licked his lips, reaching for Chen Jiayi's cheek: "I know that since you found out Old Hou has other women, you haven't let him touch you. These past few years, you've been husband and wife in name only. Rest assured, whatever Old Hou owes you, I'll make it up to you!"

"No need!"

Again fending off Guo Baoming's lascivious hand, Chen Jiayi coldly eyed Guo Baoming: "Even if there's no love left between me and Old Hou, I won't go to bed with someone who's sent him to jail..."

"Slap—"

Before she could finish her words, Guo Baoming had already slapped her, flipping Chen Jiayi over the sofa and, without giving her a chance to react, grabbed the loose neckline of her shirt.

"You damned bitch, are you trying to refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit? Now that Old Hou is gone, do you still fucking think you're the Mayor's Wife? It won't be long before I'm the top man in Jiangning. Whoever I want to sleep with, I will sleep with. Today, I'll let you taste what I'm like!"

Enraged, Guo Baoming forcefully tore at Chen Jiayi's thin clothing. Hidden behind the screen, Lin Fan clearly saw that pop of pink atop her bursting hills, so dazzling against her snow-white skin.

He never would have expected the Deputy Mayor to be so barbaric. Watching from behind the screen, Lin Fan felt his blood boiling, rushing to his crown. Never mind his past grudges over a former girlfriend—just the profanation of his Goddess, especially this woman who had just provocatively tempted him, was unbearable. Thus, he reached out and grasped an antique vase from the nearby shelf.

"Ha ha ha, Guo Baoming, Old Hou was right about you; you truly are an old lecher."

Chen Jiayi suddenly burst into laughter. "Haven't you forgotten? Old Hou has been contending with you for so many years. Do you think he doesn't have any dirt on you? Do you really think sending him in is the end of it? I'll tell you, if you dare touch me today, I'll make sure you end up disgraced!"

"Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? If he had any dirt on me, he would have taken me down with him long ago. Why didn't he implicate me when the discipline commission took him away? His connections have long been severed. Do you think anyone will believe what you say?"

Guo Baoming, his eyes bloodshot, stared at Chen Jiayi as she lay halfway on the sofa. For years, he had been itching to devour her. Now that she had finally fallen into the abyss, this was the perfect chance.

"True, he might not be able to land you in prison, but he could tarnish your reputation. Once it spreads, it will be enough to stigmatize you. By then, if the negative news breaks, you won't become the top man, and all the plans you've painstakingly laid out for so many years will go to waste."

Chen Jiayi clutched at her fiery chest, her beautiful eyes fiercely glaring at Guo Baoming, "So you want to sleep with me, then come on, sleep with me once and lose your position as a Deputy Mayor, I'll consider it a service to the people by removing a scourge!"

Chen Jiayi didn't struggle anymore, just coldly smiling, although that smile appeared incredibly sinister.

Her words indeed struck at Guo Baoming's heart. Compared to sleeping with a woman, the position of Mayor was clearly more enticing. He could not afford to throw away a mountain for a single ear of corn.

But the woman before him was just too charming, like a piece of meat tempting a starving wolf. He really didn't want to let go. But as he wrestled with his inner demons, suddenly a vase flew across the room and crashed on the floor of the living room.

"Crack!"

The sharp sound shocked Guo Baoming like an electric jolt. Instinctively, he pulled up his pants and looked around but couldn't see anyone. The shattered vase obviously hadn't flown by itself, which meant there were others in the room.

So he pointed at Chen Jiayi, unwilling to accept defeat, "I warn you, with Old Hou gone, it's impossible for you, a woman, to fight against me in Jiangning. If I so wish, I can make you beg for life yet beg for death even more!"

"If you're done, you can leave!"

Chen Jiayi, using her torn clothes to shield her chest, watched Guo Baoming coldly.

"Fine, remember this—I will make you lie on the ground like a dog, begging me to sleep with you one day!"

Guo Baoming had to reassess the beauty, who was as beautiful as a goddess. Her mind was intricately meticulous, sending shivers down one's spine. No wonder Hou Changyao respected and feared her so much. She indeed had a shrewd heart.

Although he was unsure whether her words were true or false, he couldn't do much until he attained the position of Mayor. For the time being, he could only temporarily swallow his pride. Once everything had settled, he would turn back and take care of this woman. The things she held in her hands were of utmost importance to him.

As Guo Baoming angrily closed the door behind him, Lin Fan finally walked out from behind the folding screen, spitting in the direction of the door, "He's truly a beast!"

"How could he be the only beast? How many humans are there in your building?"

Chen Jiayi somewhat tidied up her torn collar before speaking, "You've seen what has happened. With Old Hou likely gone for good, Guo Baoming has long been eying me. We now share the same enemy, so do you want to join forces with me to take him down?"

"Why would you choose me?"

Lin Fan looked at Chen Jiayi. He knew the importance of his value in the world of officialdom. As the Mayor's Wife, if she had to find a collaborator, it shouldn't be someone insignificant like him.

"Because your official career is bleak and unpromising."

Chen Jiayi straightened her slightly disheveled hair and said, "In that building, even the janitor has their own connections, the only exception is you. Aside from your integrity, you have nothing. However, I have a USB drive left to me by Old Hou, documenting the dirt on many people. The video you just saw is only one of them. If you do as I say, with the information I have, I can assure your official career will soar, making you the next Old Hou."

"To become a prisoner?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Fan hesitated. His current life, although not satisfying, was still far better than being locked away.

"He didn't listen to me, touched a woman he shouldn't have, took money he shouldn't have, and that's what led to his downfall."

Chen Jiayi stood up as she spoke, spreading her arms, allowing the torn strap of her nightgown to slide down her body like snow, cascading to the floor, leaving only a last trace of dark silk guarding her final sanctuary, her exquisite figure fully revealed before Lin Fan. She then grabbed his hand and placed it on her chest.

"As long as you don't mess around, I promise you can take over everything he had, including possessing me!"
