When the police walked up and tried to take him away, Jiang Sheng suddenly snapped back to reality.

He fell into the trap!

"Song Guanchao, I, I damn it..."

He wanted to curse but forcefully held back.

Song Guanchao smiled gently and said, "Mr. Jiang, I'm not someone who bullies when in the right. If you apologize to me now, I'll pretend this never happened."

"Don't even think about it!"

"Oh? Not willing to apologize?"

Song Guanchao glanced at the police officer: "Officer, for defamation and insult, how many days of detention?"

"Seven days to half a month."

Song Guanchao said, "Mr. Jiang, you're quite a man, would rather sit for ten days to half a month than apologize. I admire you, take care!"

"I, I... I apologize!"

He knew that Song Guanchao could really get him detained.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have cursed at you."

Jiang Sheng lowered his head and said with humiliation.

He told himself that this wasn't cowardice; it was flexibility.

"What is Mr. Jiang saying? Your voice is too low, I didn't hear it."

"Sorry!"

He said through gritted teeth.

"Hehe, Mr. Jiang, don't be so impulsive in the future. Whatever issue you have, we should resolve it amicably. I'm just a secretary, can I decide on this money? Even if you're angry, you shouldn't take it out on me, wouldn't you agree?"

"Yes."

Song Guanchao said whatever, he would comply now.

"Officer, sorry for the trouble."

"It's okay."

With the matter peacefully settled, they both breathed a sigh of relief.

One was the City Committee's secretary, the other, clearly not an ordinary individual either.

If absolutely necessary, they didn't want to offend either.

The police left, and Song Guanchao also departed.

In the parking lot, Song Guanchao smiled and said, "Those two billion, if you want it, remember what I've said."

Jiang Sheng's just calmed emotions were immediately stirred up again.

"Song Guanchao, don't go too far!"

Jiang Sheng glared at him: "You, a mere secretary, do you know the consequences of offending the Jiang family?"

Song Guanchao looked intrigued: "I don't know the consequences on my end, but here in Lingjiang, I'm very clear on what will happen if you offend me. Mr. Jiang, want to give it a try?"

Jiang Sheng held back the urge to curse: "Don't think I don't know you're trying to provoke me! You're just a secretary, can you decide on this money? Hmph! Thinking you're something special!"

Song Guanchao seriously said: "Mr. Jiang got it right, this matter is actually something I can decide on. I'm not afraid to tell you that this money is currently under my control, and without my word, it won't return to the country."

"If you don't believe me, you can ask the City Committee to check the transaction records to see if I'm telling the truth."

"Remember, if you want the money, come and bow, one bow costs ten million. But only this week. After this week, even if you break your head bowing, there won't be money."

Song Guanchao patted his shoulder with a smile and drove away.

Jiang Sheng, with a dark face and boiling anger, finally left without a word.

He didn't know how much truth there was in what Song Guanchao said.

But as far as he knew, it was improbable that Song Guanchao had the authority to directly control this embezzled money.

He felt that Song Guanchao might be bluffing him.

Moreover, he didn't believe that Song Guanchao dared to embezzle those two billion.

Such a large amount, even if the Provincial Committee Secretary dared to embezzle, once exposed, would also have to step down.

...

In the afternoon, at New City Company.

Song Guanchao sat in the office, with Liu Lanzi sitting on his lap.

"No need to make a budget?"

"Those two government buildings, not going to be built?"

Song Guanchao told her not to continue making the budget, which confused Liu Lanzi.

"Temporarily not building."

Song Guanchao said, "In a while, Tongchi District will hold a land auction, and you should free up the company's cash and find a way to secure those two plots."

Liu Lanzi's delicate eyebrows furrowed, "Land in Tongchi District isn't very valuable."

She was being somewhat tactful.

Though the two had a close relationship, she didn't hope for Song Guanchao to interfere in business matters.

Song Guanchao showed remarkable talent in politics, but being an official and starting a business are two different things.

She didn't think Song Guanchao was more professional in business than she was.

Song Guanchao patted her butt with a mysterious smile: "Right now it's not very valuable, but once you get it, it'll be worth a lot."

Liu Lanzi was intrigued: "Is the city planning to focus on developing Tongchi District?"

Song Guanchao shook his head: "The city won't give too much support, and even if they wanted to, with the city's financial situation, they couldn't."

Finally, he added, "In a few days, the city will promote me to be the district chief of Tongchi District."

Liu Lanzi was surprised, and then enlightened: "You want me to help you develop Tongchi District?"

She bit her lip, feeling a bit hesitant.

As she said, she's always kept feelings and business separate.

She could help Song Guanchao, but not at the risk of the company's future.

"Currently, the company account has over seventy million in liquid assets, at most I can only secure one piece of land."

Liu Lanzi took a deep breath and decided to support him anyway.

Song Guanchao's eyes were tender; he kissed her on the cheek and said, "I asked you to buy land not because I'm going to be district chief. But because..."

He deliberately left the sentence unfinished.

Liu Lanzi was listening intently, but then he suddenly stopped talking.

"Because of what?"

"Hehe."

Song Guanchao chuckled mischievously, stood up and placed her on the desk, spreading her legs and thrusting forward.

"Mmm ah~"

He was too sudden, leaving Liu Lanzi caught off guard, her body trembling.

Song Guanchao held her waist, exploring her, while nibbling her ear and softly whispering, "Because Tongchi District is going to build a subway."

"Ah?"

Liu Lanzi was surprised, but the next second, Song Guanchao thrust forcefully, sending her into a violent shiver, her voice altering in pitch.

While enduring the physical sensation, she was shocked inwardly.

Tongchi District was going to construct a subway!

Having been in real estate for so many years, she understood even better than Song Guanchao that once news of subway construction spread, Tongchi District would quickly become a darling of the real estate market.

The prices of old houses along the subway line would increase sharply.

A lot of demolitions would create a large number of multimillionaires.

Lingjiang, unlike other first- and second-tier cities, has maintained a steady economy.

Steadiness means potential.

Experiences in property development that have been proven in other cities don't need to be studied in Lingjiang, could be directly applied.

They just need to methodically build the subway, sell land, demolish, construct buildings…

By then, demolition residents will benefit.

The value of the plots of land will skyrocket, and property developers will make a fortune.

The government sells land, bringing in substantial land financial revenue.

Tongchi District… no, the entire Lingjiang economy will experience explosive growth in the next three to five years due to subway planning.

The blueprint drawn by Song Guanchao sparked ambition in Liu Lanzi's heart.

The mental stimulus combined with the current physical satisfaction took her to the peak in an instant.

Her body trembled violently, her abdomen contracting and heaving.

Ning Lin watched the fiery passion between the two through the blinds, instinctively squeezing her thighs together, her face blushing, her breath hot, eyes thick with allure.
