Arranged marriage, love blossoms; a fiercely devoted soldier dotes on her alone.

at this time,

Xiao Zhan stared coldly at the burning wreckage of the car. The firelight in the darkness reflected on his handsome, angular face, and the flickering flames gave him an air of mystery.

Xiao Zhan's brows furrowed slightly, and a murderous aura flashed in his deep eyes...

Xia Keke whispered, "Xiao Zhan, they're declaring war on us. Should we take immediate action?"

"Let's go all the way and start a massacre."

Xiao Zhan shook his head, the murderous intent in his eyes suddenly disappeared, and he said in a very calm tone: "There is a saying that goes, 'If you want to destroy someone, you must first make them crazy.' This also shows that our actions have made them feel fear and unease. They have begun to take the initiative to attack, which means that our 'beating the grass to scare the snake' has been successful. As long as the other party makes a move, it will leave clues. This is a good start for us."

Xia Keke said somewhat sullenly, "I thought you were going to go back and fight right away. How boring."

Xiao Zhan looked into Xia Keke's eyes and said, "Director Xia, you're very emotional today. You were shouting about turning Li Chaobing into a eunuch, and now you're impulsively wanting to go on a killing spree. This is the first time I've seen you act like this."

Xia Keke blushed slightly and said softly, "Oh, I'm sorry, every woman has a few days each month when she's in a bad mood. I saw Zhao Ruirui being bullied so badly by Meng Jianping and Li Chaobing, and as a woman, my sympathy was instantly overflowing. I was also enraged by their filth and shamelessness."

Xiao Zhan glanced at Xia Keke's lower body subconsciously, then said, "A small act of impatience can ruin a big plan. I'll handle the rest. You should go back and rest."

Xia Keke said reluctantly, "Xiao Zhan, what do you mean? Are you implying that I'm not calm? I promise I won't say anything reckless later. You can make all the decisions."

At this moment, Wang Ming'an came out of the room and said to Xiao Zhan, "Young Master Xiao, Meng Jianjun just confessed. He was terrified. He originally asked Li Chaobing to come and pick him up so they could leave together, but Li Chaobing's car was bombed beforehand. He almost died but came back."

Xiao Zhan: "Deputy Secretary Wang, please be careful when you leave. Tonight will definitely be a sleepless night."

Wang Ming'an laughed and said, "Hehe! In our kind of work, danger is commonplace. Some people jokingly call us, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, superheroes who work on the edge of a knife."

Looking at the burning wreckage of the car, Wang Ming'an asked, "Young Master Xiao, who do you think did this?"

Xiao Zhan cannot tell Wang Ming'an now, because it is not yet time to make the matter fully public.

Xiao Zhan shook his head and said, "That's hard to say. After all, I've offended too many people, and there are quite a few who want to get rid of me."

Those who reach the level of Wang Ming'an are all seasoned veterans in officialdom, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they are shrewd and calculating. How could they not understand Xiao Zhan's meaning?

So he stopped questioning Xiao Zhan and, gazing at the firelight, casually remarked, "Being Deng Zhi's enemy is dangerous, but being his friend is fatal."

This statement is profound and philosophical.

Being an enemy is dangerous but not necessarily fatal, but being a friend will definitely lead to death.

At first glance, this statement seems to be reversed.

But upon closer examination, it's terrifying...

Wang Ming'an seemed to be conveying some kind of message to Xiao Zhan...

Xiao Zhan and Xia Keke exchanged a glance after hearing this.

"Woo-la~ woo-la~".

At that moment, two fire trucks came rushing in.

"squeak!"

The fire truck came to a stop in front of the flames.

"Splash!"

Several firefighters rushed out of the vehicle and swiftly began extinguishing the fire…

Xiao Zhan extended his right hand and said, "Vice Secretary Wang, I have other matters to attend to and will take my leave first."

Wang Ming'an grasped Xiao Zhan's hand and whispered, "Meng Jianping just gave you a lot of valuable information. According to the instructions from above, I need to report the specific details to you. I'll compile the documents and send them to you later. Hehe! I hope you won't take what I said earlier to heart, Young Master Xiao. I just felt something and said it casually."

Xiao Zhan raised an eyebrow and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Secretary Wang."

When Wang Ming'an heard Xiao Zhan address him as Secretary Wang instead of the previous Deputy Secretary Wang, his expression froze for a moment, then he was overjoyed.

But he remained calm and said, "Young Master Xiao, when do you have time? I'd like to have tea with you. No, no, I'll treat you to a meal. Hehe, everyone knows that inviting someone to tea by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection means they're going to be arrested."

Xiao Zhan said calmly, "I don't mind. Whether it's tea or a meal, it's fine. Goodbye, keep in touch."

Xiao Zhan got into Xia Keke's car.

Xia Keke had overheard the entire conversation between Xiao Zhan and Wang Ming'an, and couldn't help but ask, "What did you mean by addressing Wang Ming'an as 'Secretary Wang' at the end? What about the 'Deputy' part?"

Xiao Zhan smirked and said, "Of course it means exactly what it says. You don't think I'm implying anything about Wang Ming'an, do you?"

Xia Keke said incredulously, "Aren't you one too?"

Xiao Zhan sneered, "You're overthinking it."

"Drive me to the hospital."

Xia Keke was stunned for a moment and said, "Xiao Zhan, what do you mean? Aren't we going to take action tonight?"

Xiao Zhan scoffed, "The Li Chao soldiers have all been silenced, what's the point of you taking any action?"

Xia Keke was momentarily stunned and asked, "So, we'll just leave it at that?"

Xiao Zhan: "Tonight was just a small test, I didn't expect it to cause such a big commotion. I'm already very satisfied. Oh, you should tell Zhang Guoqiang and the others to call it a day. They won't find anything of value if they continue searching. Besides, Li Chaobing is already dead. There's no way to verify anything. Death solves everything. The sins are absolved."

Xia Keke blinked her beautiful big eyes, looked at Xiao Zhan thoughtfully, and said, "Why do I feel like you've used me?"

Xiao Zhan laughed and said, "What you said leaves me speechless. We are the best partners. What do you mean by 'taking advantage'?"

Xia Keke rolled her eyes and said, "Wait, I feel like I've fallen into a trap you dug."

Xiao Zhan smirked and said, "Director Xia, stop being so suspicious. Are you driving or not? If not, I'll take a taxi myself. Go home, wash up, and go to bed. You should stay home as much as possible these next few days, so you don't end up finding fault with everyone. You're either trying to turn this person into a eunuch or suspecting that someone is setting you up."

Xia Keke lost her confidence after Xiao Zhan's words, and muttered to herself while driving, "Could it be that my intuition is wrong? No, my intuition has always been accurate."

Xiao Zhan chuckled to himself.

Sometimes it feels quite fun to tease Xia Keke.

When the first rays of morning sunlight shone on Qin Huanhuan's rosy face, her long eyelashes fluttered. Feeling a little cold, she snuggled closer to the man's embrace.

Last night, Xiao Zhan picked up Qin Huanhuan from the hospital, and the two returned to Xiao Zhan's place.

The two of them didn't fall asleep until dawn, exhausted, embracing each other.

I don't know how much time has passed.

Qin Huanhuan was awakened by a tingling, itchy sensation. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Xiao Zhan gently brushing her ear with his hair, looking at her with deep affection.

Qin Huanhuan rolled her eyes at the man's eager gaze and muttered, "You jerk, you're up to no good just by looking at me. I'm warning you, don't even think about doing *that* thing* so early in the morning!"

Xiao Zhan reached out and put his arm around the woman's slender waist, whispering in her ear, "I suddenly remembered a few sentences I saw online."

Qin Huanhuan instinctively asked, "What did you say?"

Xiao Zhan lowered his head and whispered a few words in his ear.

Qin Huanhuan was still half asleep and her brain was in a daze. She didn't react immediately and instinctively said, "Did you say that backwards?"

Xiao Zhan: "To prove that I'm not being sarcastic, we two must verify it ourselves."

As Xiao Zhan spoke, he pressed down on her...

Qin Huanhuan realized she had fallen for that scoundrel's trick again...
