Chapter 90: Chapter 90: You Harm Me, I Play You

"Oh, so that’s the situation. Da Gui is quite generous, has many friends, and is quite enthusiastic about his work, so he’s a pretty decent person. The only thing is that he doesn’t seem to get along well with the leaders in town, and over the years, he’s only been a publicity committee member."

Ms. Liu’s ambiguous words revealed a sense of helplessness. Perhaps Zhou Daguai was alright in the eyes of his colleagues, but it was clear that he wasn’t highly regarded by Li Haiping, so Lin Fan probably understood that he might not be the right candidate for the position of resident secretary this time.

"Alright, I think I understand now. Thank you, Ms. Liu."

After receiving this information, Lin Fan showed a slight smile. He wasn’t afraid of Da Gui having a poor relationship with the leaders; he was more concerned that Da Gui might be too close to Li Haiping, which would leave no room for him to maneuver. Now, it seemed he could indeed stir some things up.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

Not long after Ms. Liu had left, the office door was knocked on again, and Zhou Daguai entered with a smile.

"Mayor Lin, I just came to confirm if you’re free tonight."

"I am free, but it might be troublesome for your wife; why don’t we go to a restaurant and have the fish stewed instead? There’s no need for such trouble."

Lin Fan said with a deliberately humble smile.

"How could that be? My wife’s family lives right beside the reservoir and her cooking skills, especially with fish, are absolutely superb. Plus, I’ve already told her about tonight, and she’s really looking forward to Mayor Lin’s visit, so you must come to my house tonight for a good drink among brothers."

Zhou Daguai cheerfully invited.

"Zhou, my tolerance for alcohol isn’t great either. Just half a glass of white wine put me to sleep all afternoon yesterday. I’m afraid I might not be good company. How about I bring Mayor Li along?"

Since the other party wanted to play a part, he might as well play along. He really wasn’t an opponent when it came to acting dumb.

"Let’s not invite him then. After all, if Mayor Li comes and others aren’t invited, wouldn’t it seem like I’m neglecting others? Besides, I get along better with you. Let’s keep this gathering small, and maybe some other time when there’s a big occasion, we’ll get everyone together."

Zhou Daguai, having witnessed Lin Fan’s alcohol tolerance the previous noon, was confident he could get Lin Fan utterly drunk, as half a glass of white liquor was already too much for him. Once Lin Fan was inebriated, Bai Xue would be able to help him into bed, and with video evidence left behind, he would have Lin Fan completely trapped.

"That’s fine then."

Lin Fan finally nodded, though it seemed a difficult concession. Watching him agree, Zhou Daguai exited with a grin, thinking he had completely fooled this fool from the city.

"Ah, they say rural folks are simple, but it seems they’re not that simple."

Lin Fan shrugged his shoulders. Since he wanted to play, he would play along. As he was thinking about his actions for the evening, Bai Xue sent him a message: Zhou Daguai had asked her to take the day off to tidy up the house. She had checked and actually found a hidden camera in her small room and was unsure how to handle it.

"Keep it, since I’m not planning to sleep in your room tonight anyway."

Lin Fan replied with a chuckle, ready to play a bigger game since Zhou Daguai wanted to play.

"Wait... you’re not planning to sleep in the living room, are you? I just changed the sheets."

Bai Xue also made thorough preparations for the evening, considering it Zhou Daguai’s provocation first. He wouldn’t expect how crazy a woman’s hatred could make her.

"You’d better change the sheets in his room."

Lin Fan texted back with a mischievous smirk, and after a long pause, Bai Xue replied.

"I’ve already changed them. Anything else you need?"

"You might want to prepare some Golden Throat Lozenges; tonight I’ll take you to another peak."

As the evening wore on, the town quieted down.

Zhou Daguai had been waiting outside Lin Fan’s office early on and immediately approached him with enthusiasm reminiscent of a ruffian spotting a young girl, his wide grin exposing his back molars.

Thus, the two walked side by side out of the town hall, turned a corner, and arrived in a flat-roofed area. As a remote rural area, Lotus Town had a sparse permanent population and lacked high-rise buildings, being almost entirely composed of two-story houses. These two flat-roofed buildings were indeed unremarkable.

"Bai Xue, Mayor Lin is here."

Zhou Daguai pushed open the wooden door and called inside. Hearing the voice, Bai Xue immediately came out of the kitchen.

She was dressed casually in a blue tank top, her delicate collarbone and snowy shoulders exposed, her sleek hair cascading beside her swan-like neck. Her graceful figure enhanced by a bare midriff, revealing a well-toned abdomen from continuous exercise and a slender waist rising to a shapely bust, creating an enchanting curve, while her wide-legged white lounge pants elongated her already imposing stance.

This leisurely attire, coupled with her youthful face, trendily beautiful with cherry lips and bright teeth, and her soulful eyes so lively they captivated one’s gaze, made it undeniable that even in a bustling street, Bai Xue would easily attract the shutterbugs.
