Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Official Path, Using Leverage to Exert Force

When Lin Fan’s car stopped inside the villa courtyard, the sky had already turned completely dark.

Looking at the brilliantly lit entrance of the small two-story building, Chen Jiayi and Zhao Jiaqi had already excitedly run out.

"The busy man is finally back."

The slender Zhao Jiaqi threw herself into Lin Fan’s arms. At that moment, Lin Fan thought of something Jiayi once said, that in order to completely subdue a woman, there were only two ways: either give her enough money, so much that it breaks her spine, or be wild enough in bed to make her weak at the knees whenever she sees you.

"How about it, did you miss me?"

Lin Fan gently stroked Zhao Jiaqi’s thin back and couldn’t wait to plant a kiss on her red lips before embracing the slowly approaching Chen Jiayi and also giving her lips a peck.

"Of course, I missed you. Otherwise, why would I take pictures for you? Have you been up to any mischief with our photos?"

Like a tamed little pony, Zhao Jiaqi would send Lin Fan a picture of them in their sexy underwear every night. Those imaginatively tempting slim waists and perky rears were something Lin Fan had to glimpse at before bed.

"What do you think? Tonight, I must show you just how formidable I am."

Lin Fan laughed and pinched her perky rear. She must be starving after this week, her tight yoga pants today outlining a deep groove in her buttocks—a firmness that fully made up for the scarcity on top. Chen Jiayi’s breasts, perfectly fitting in a hand’s grasp, also had their own captivating cleavage. It truly was a case of complementing each other, mutual fulfillment.

"You think I’m scared? Tonight, Jiayi and I will drain you dry so you won’t be able to move."

Zhao Jiaqi pouted; in her thirties, she was in her fiercest years. Ever since she was ’unlocked’, she was not someone easily satiated.

"Alright then, you’re not allowed to beg for mercy later on."

Lin Fan smiled and looked toward Chen Jiayi on the side. "So, who will you be supporting tonight?"

"Whoever you want me to support, I’ll support."

Chen Jiayi stuck out her tongue playfully. "You rushed back here in such a hurry, you must not have eaten yet. Jiaqi has made soup, and I also made some side dishes. Let’s fill you up first, then you can work like an ox and horse."

"Great, I also have some things I want to discuss with you."

Holding hands with the two beauties, the trio made their way to the dining room. This golden hiding place for beauties was surely what every man dreamed of—looking at the feast with dishes full of color, aroma, and taste, accompanied by two charming mature women, was a moment of sheer delight.

They opened a bottle of red wine, chattering and sipping. After Lin Fan replicated County Magistrate Luan’s ambiguous words to Chen Jiayi, she immediately understood.

"You rushed into this too eagerly. And just like County Magistrate Luan said, you’ll leave grounds for others to criticize you, and the longer it drags on, the bigger the issue becomes."

"Was I wrong for investing the money and taking the lead?"

On the way back, Lin Fan had spent a long time pondering where he had gone wrong.

"Yes, you’re indeed wrong because if such matters fall into the mouths of the scheming, then it’s seen as exploiting the mayor’s position for personal gain, anticipating the profits to line one’s own pockets. At the least, it’s called taking advantage, and at most, it’s using one’s power for personal gain. If it gets into an enemy’s hands, no matter what you argue, it’ll be useless."

Chen Jiayi’s words stunned Lin Fan. After a long while, he finally said, "But without my leadership, production wouldn’t increase, and the purchasing price wouldn’t rise. It’s a significant investment—others wouldn’t be willing to do it so readily. How could this be considered using power for personal gain?"

"This matter has two sides, as do the words surrounding it. Plus, you need to understand the basic nature of humanity—the fear is not of scarcity but of unfairness. If this fails, people will only laugh at you, but once it’s successful, jealousy will be enough to drown you. That includes the villagers in your village—they’ll say you fattened your own pockets because, in their eyes, a good official’s primary attribute is to be poor. Only poverty can prove their integrity, so they will never thank you."

Chen Jiayi swirled her wine glass, pointing out the most sordid part of human nature, which is also a common trait—everyone cries out for good leadership, but once they become leaders themselves, they are greedier than anyone.

"Okay, so does that mean I shouldn’t do this?"

Chen Jiayi’s analysis left Lin Fan deflated, feeling his fervent enthusiasm was thoroughly wasted.

"One must consider the method and approach in doing things. The summer insect cannot speak of ice, just like the well frog cannot speak of the sea. Don’t overestimate others’ greed, and don’t underestimate the malevolence of human nature. If this matter is to be done, it can only be done by leveraging external forces—using borrowed force not only helps to achieve the goal but also reaps better rewards."

Her words made Lin Fan’s eyes widen; after her reminder, he felt a sudden burst of enlightenment.

"Tell me your ideas in detail."

Lin Fan eagerly grabbed Chen Jiayi’s hand, asking with urgency.

"This involves the county’s investment attraction task next week, right? Well, this can be used as a selling point. Naturally, someone will take over, and whoever does will have to be grateful to you. Isn’t that the best way to use borrowed force?"

Chen Jiayi’s words excited Lin Fan to the point of slapping the table: "Tonight, neither of you is going to sleep."
