The Tempting Road to Becoming an Official

"Isn't this a good thing? Sacrificing for the greater good is commendable."

Chen Fang asked.

Huang Zhiyao sighed, "That's what they say, but the rumors are different. This Din'er Guli, climbing up from a prosecutor to a higher position, is said to have done it with her husband's money paving the way for her. In other words, without her husband, she wouldn't have had the opportunity to handle this case later on. What do you say to that? It's truly 'hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.' Anyone who gets involved with her is doomed."

"How do you know so much about her?"

Chen Fang asked.

Huang Zhiyao said, "When Pang Shuhai's drug trafficking network was uncovered, Longyuan Province was a hub. After the case broke, Longyuan Province cooperated with the investigation for a long time, so of course we know."

Oh, that's the reason.

Chen Fang was just joking around.

Not to be taken seriously.

After the two finished their gossip.

They packed up their luggage and left the school.

At the entrance of Qingfeng Mansion.

Huang Zhiyao shouted again.

Because right in front of them wasn't just any neighborhood, but a high-end community with seemingly strict security.

Walking into the apartment arranged by Zhong Xiqian.

Huang Zhiyao was even more ecstatic, bouncing up and down.

In front of them was a large flat apartment.

No less than 400 square meters.

And the decoration was extremely high-end.

Complete with all the necessary living supplies.

A world apart from the school dormitory.

"Fang, how much do you think an apartment like this would cost?"

Yellow Zhiyao asked, breathing in the fresh air from outside.

Chen Fang shook his head and said, "I don't know, I've never bought a house, but I think with a location this good, it must be over ten million."

"How much did you say?"

"Probably over ten million."

Chen Fang said nonchalantly.

Huang Zhiyao gasped.

Said, "Over ten million, you make it sound like a little over a thousand bucks. My goodness, I'll never earn that much in my entire life."

As the two were tidying up and joking around.

The doorbell suddenly rang.

The two had just arrived not long ago.

Who would be knocking?

Standing closer to the door, Chen Fang stepped forward, opened the door, and was immediately dumbfounded.

In front of him was a familiar face.

No one else, it was Din'er Guli, whom they were discussing in the dorm.

Except she wasn't wearing those classroom clothes.

Instead, she was only wrapped in a bath towel.

The towel wasn't long.

It covered the top.

But left the bottom quite short.

Those impossibly long legs were almost entirely visible.

Fair, straight, and plump.

Maliciously speaking, a "cannon frame" by nature.

Beads of sweat clung to her body.

A towel wrapped around her head.

Hair looked wet and damp.

Clearly having just taken a shower.

Guli, looking panicked, said, "Hello, sorry to bother you, I... I'm your neighbor from across the hall, I… went to throw out some trash, didn't bring my key, and the door locked behind me… I've already asked property management to call a locksmith, can I borrow some clothes to cover up?"

Hearing the voice, Huang Zhiyao also came over.

Upon seeing Guli, he froze for a moment, "Guli classmate."

It was clear.

Guli didn't recognize these two people in front of her.

After all, she arrived later.

Not surprising she didn't remember their faces.

Guli hesitated, "You are...?"

"We're in the same research class, we're classmates."

Huang Zhiyao said.

Guli was shocked, then overjoyed.

Quickly said, "That's great, fellow classmates, I..."

"Come in then."

Chen Fang stepped to the side.

Let her in.

Then he went into the bathroom, brought out a bathrobe.

Said, "It's clean, hasn't been used, you can wear it."

Guli thanked profusely.

Went into the bathroom.

When she came out, the men's bathrobe covered her figure completely.

Since they weren't familiar.

The three didn't talk much.

About half an hour later.

The locksmith arrived.

The door was quickly opened.

After thanking them, Guli went back into her apartment.

"Fang, what a coincidence, we were just talking about her, didn't expect she'd live right across from us."

Chen Fang teased, "Seems like you two have quite a fate."

Huang Zhiyao hastily waved, "That kind of fate, I can't handle. Not to mention her personality, just that body and face, I can't manage. But Fang, maybe you should give it a try."

"Oh, shut up."

Chen Fang punched him lightly.

Said, "Hurry up and pack, we'll go find a place to eat later..."

"You can go eat on your own, I've planned it all out, I'm going to check out the landmarks of Yuanjing, can't miss the opportunity, are you coming with me?"

Huang Zhiyao asked.

Chen Fang smiled and shook his head, "I'm not going, I've been busy all morning, want to rest for a bit."

"Alright, then I won't drag you along."

Huang Zhiyao said.

It was not yet eleven in the morning.

And he went out enthusiastically.

Chen Fang rested for a while.

Then thought of going downstairs to find a place for lunch.

Picked up his phone, just about to leave.

At that moment, the doorbell rang again.

Could it be Huang Zhiyao came back?

Chen Fang opened the door.

And there she was again, Guli.

Except this time, her hair was dry, and she had changed into comfy loungewear.

Looking quite relaxed.

She was holding a neatly folded piece of clothing, the bathrobe Chen Fang lent her, and timidly said, "Chen Fang, I've used the robe, I washed and dried it, brought it back for you."

"Oh, it wasn't necessary."

Chen Fang accepted the bathrobe, tossed it onto the sofa.

Turning back, he saw Guli hadn't left yet.

Asked, "Guli, anything else?"

Guli blushed, a bit awkward, "You guys helped me so much, I didn't know how to properly thank you, I made some food, why don't you both come over to eat?"

"No need, Huang Zhiyao went out, I'm by myself, I'll just grab a bite downstairs."

It's not that Chen Fang was listening to Huang Zhiyao, disliking Guli.

But just the two of them alone, it felt a bit inappropriate.

They had just met.

Chen Fang's not that thick-skinned.

"I... I've already cooked, Chen Fang, please don't misunderstand... I'm just... just wanting to make friends with you."

Guli blushed, speaking shyly.
