The beautiful CEO falls in love with me
Chapter 470 - 470 455 Earthquake

470: Chapter 455: Earthquake 470: Chapter 455: Earthquake Ye Chen, Da Xia, and others gathered on the second floor of the Heavenly Reversal Gang.

“Big brother, killing Liu Jiangqiu this time is probably going to trigger an earthquake in Jianghuai City!” Haozi seriously looked at Ye Chen.

“Mm!” Ye Chen nodded and said, “But there’s no need to worry too much!”

“Why?” Haozi was startled.

“Liu Jiangqiu had offended many people in Jianghuai City.

No one will bother to crack the case for him.

Even if they wanted to, Jiang Zhonggen would suppress it.” Ye Chen smiled faintly and said, “Jiang Zhonggen is not going to let the Jianghuai Party turn the tide so easily.

Besides, Liu Jiangqiu’s criminal record is all over the scene.

Anyone astute will know at a glance and definitely won’t delve deeper, because once they start investigating, too many people would get implicated!”

Haozi and Da Xia, as if enlightened, nodded and said, “This does make sense.

China’s bureaucracy is really baffling.

Even though he was once their companion, as soon as he dies, they immediately disassociate themselves from him, as if they never knew him at all!”

“That’s China for you!” Ye Chen nodded.

As expected, the death of Liu Jiangqiu was only briefly reported—Xue’er’s online column was probably the one that reported most about Liu Jiangqiu, mostly tangling over some interests.

Lin Xue’er, although matured, had become even more righteous and just.

She was enumerating Liu Jiangqiu’s “great accomplishments” when he was alive and was furthermore boldly criticizing him.

Watching the television, Ye Chen shook his head.

This little girl, although those people didn’t dare to stand up for Liu Jiangqiu, that didn’t mean they wouldn’t help him secretly.

Now, hardly anyone dared to discuss Liu Jiangqiu, because, being the chief of the Jianghuai Party, his ability to stay in Jianghuai City for so many years without incident naturally demonstrated his capabilities.

Lin Xue’er, this little girl, fearlessly continued to criticize Liu Jiangqiu and those connected with him by nepotism.

The matter of Liu Jiangqiu was considered past, but what Ye Chen hadn’t expected was that the very next day after Liu Jiangqiu’s incident, Jiang Zhonggen urgently summoned him.

“Secretary Jiang, you wanted to see me?” Ye Chen asked cheerfully.

“Xiao Ye, you’re here, come in and have a seat!” The living room was beautiful, and Mrs.

Jiang’s face was brimming with a smile, the image of affluent homeliness.

She hurried to help Ye Chen with his shoes, then served him tea and water.

Such attentive service made Ye Chen exclaim in admiration, “Secretary Jiang, to have such a virtuous wife really makes one envious!”

“Haha, Xiao Ye, you flatter me!” Jiang Zhonggen was momentarily startled, and then laughed heartily.

At that moment, Mrs.

Jiang came over carrying a tray of fruits and said with a smile, “Xiao Ye, eat some fruit to cool down.”

“Thank you, Mrs.

Jiang!” Ye Chen unceremoniously took a slice of watermelon and started eating.

Watching Ye Chen eat the watermelon, Mrs.

Jiang was very pleased and couldn’t resist asking, “Xiao Ye, I wanted to ask how our Jiang Wei is doing?”

“Oh, he has gone abroad and won’t be back for a while!” Ye Chen replied with a smile.

“Ah?

He went abroad?

How come there’s no record?” Mrs.

Jiang was startled.

Jiang Zhonggen quickly nudged her, signaling her not to pursue the matter further, as these things involved privacy issues.

Mrs.

Jiang promptly shut her mouth, and Ye Chen laughed and said, “Actually, they went to a place for training.

I wanted to enhance their capabilities overall.

Jiang Wei is doing quite well now, much sturdier and also darker!”

“Really?” Mrs.

Jiang was delighted.

The old Jiang Wei didn’t like to exercise; it almost seemed like it was killing him.

Now he actually thought about going abroad for training?

That must be something very secretive, which explains why there was no record of Jiang Wei’s entry and exit.

“Yes, truly, madam!” Ye Chen tossed the watermelon rind into the trash can, then wiped his mouth and lit a cigarette, saying with a smile, “Jiang Wei’s achievements will only grow from here.”

“But, I’m somewhat worried about him mixing in those circles!” Mrs.

Jiang sighed, adding, “There’s a saying, ‘Those who come out to mix, will eventually have to pay.’ I’m afraid…

Jiang Wei is our only son.

All our hopes are pinned on him!”

After a moment of silence, Ye Chen replied, “Don’t worry, once they return, I’ll have him come home, and you can have a proper talk with him!”

“That’s great!” Mrs.

Jiang immediately exclaimed joyfully, “Xiao Ye, have some more fruit!”

“Alright, go to your room now, don’t disturb us while we talk,” Jiang Zhonggen, seeing that his wife had finished her piece, immediately ushered her into the bedroom.

Mrs.

Jiang, knowing and understanding as she was, knew to stay out of men’s discussions and thus promptly excused herself.

Now, only Jiang Zhonggen and Ye Chen were left in the living room.

Jiang Zhonggen smiled faintly and said, “Ye Chen, to be frank, the reason I called you here was to ask if Liu Jiangqiu’s affair was your doing?”

“What if it was, what if it wasn’t?” Ye Chen replied with a smirk, neither admitting nor denying.

“There’s nothing!” Jiang Zhonggen shook his head and said, “I just wanted to tell you that you acted too hastily this time.

I haven’t firmly established myself in Jianghuai City yet.

It would have been better if I could have replaced the heads of all major departments in Jianghuai City, even every unit, with my own people.

Now that Liu Jiangqiu is dead, many people are blaming me.

They think that I was the one scheming behind the scenes, and some of the originally neutral members of the Jianghuai Party immediately switched their allegiance to Liu Jiangqiu’s forces, and their local officials united!”

Ye Chen was taken aback, gave an awkward smile, and said, “I hadn’t thought that much at the time!”

“But it’s no big deal!” Jiang Zhonggen took a deep drag of his cigarette and said, “Now, my biggest obstacle is this group of local laborers, calling themselves the Jianghuai Party.

They think just because they’re locals, they’re something special, looking down on us outsiders who are officials.

I don’t believe I can’t subdue them!”

“Haha, with Secretary Jiang taking action, there certainly won’t be problems!” Ye Chen laughed heartily.

The two bragged for a while, then chatted about some factual information regarding Liu Jiangqiu’s crimes.

Jiang Zhonggen assured Ye Chen that there was no need to worry, as the police had already handed those materials over to the Disciplinary Inspection Committee, and their members had also gone to the scene to investigate, even making a statement in front of the press and media.

Even if Liu Jiangqiu was dead, his responsibilities must still be investigated.

Ye Chen was very puzzled at the time; Liu Jiangqiu was dead, how could they still pursue his responsibilities?

As Ye Chen left the City Committee building and returned to Xin Hai Apartment, he saw a graceful figure at the entrance of the complex.

Ye Chen stuck his head out and looked at her, recognizing her face clearly in the light of the roadside lamp.

Ye Chen grinned and said, “Xue’er, what are you doing here?”

“Ah, Ye Chen!” Lin Xue’er was startled, then immediately smiled and said, “I came especially to see you!”

“Then get in the car!” Ye Chen opened the passenger door.

Lin Xue’er hopped in.

Ye Chen drove into the complex and then took the young girl upstairs.

Entering the room, it was stuffy, so Ye Chen hurriedly opened a window to air it out, then turned on the living room air conditioning.

He handed Lin Xue’er a chilled can of drink, and smilingly asked, “What brings you to see me this time?”

“I…

I…” Lin Xue’er, looking at Ye Chen’s smiling face, suddenly went blank and forgot her reason for coming.

“Haha, why is your face red?” Ye Chen guzzled a mouthful of beer.

“You killed Liu Jiangqiu!” Lin Xue’er suddenly said through clenched teeth.

Pff…

Ye Chen immediately sprayed all the beer in his mouth all over Lin Xue’er.

Lin Xue’er was astounded, and so was Ye Chen.

He hurriedly grabbed a tissue to wipe her down.

Lin Xue’er had actually come to return an item to Ye Chen, which she had found in Liu Jiangqiu’s living room where he died.

She had recognized it as belonging to Ye Chen right away, so she secretly concealed it on her person, understanding with her wit that Liu Jiangqiu had been killed by Ye Chen.

However, she had not informed the police.

Instead, she had come to find Ye Chen on her own.

But just then, with Ye Chen looking at her, her face blushing, she had barely managed to blurt out that sentence.

Ye Chen too was shocked by Lin Xue’er, thinking that she had discovered something, so he had accidentally sprayed the beer, which landed exactly on Lin Xue’er’s chest.

In the heat of the summer, Lin Xue’er was already wearing very little, thin clothing, and her white shirt became transparent when wet.

As Ye Chen was wiping, he gazed at Lin Xue’er’s deep cleavage and those ‘weapons’!

Yikes…

Ye Chen’s hand brushed over Lin Xue’er’s chest, feeling quite nice.

Lin Xue’er sat there dumbfounded, letting Ye Chen fondle her chest.

From initially wiping, Ye Chen’s actions had shifted downright to fondling her breast.

It wasn’t until he noticed Lin Xue’er’s face turning red that he finally snapped out of it, but by then, he had already been touching her for quite a while.

Desire was burning within him.

Ye Chen grinned and said, “Maybe, should you change into something else?

Can you wear one of Momo’s shirts?”

“Mm!” Lin Xue’er nodded.

Being attentive to Ye Chen, she naturally knew about Liu Momo, and Liu Wenxiu’s incident had made Lin Xue’er aware of the poor girl Liu Momo.

Liu Momo was living with Ye Chen, and Lin Xue’er didn’t think Ye Chen would mistreat Liu Momo; on the contrary, she believed that Ye Chen would definitely take good care of Liu Momo.

Then, Ye Chen rummaged through his belongings and finally found a white Chanel T-shirt, seemingly new and unworn.

Lin Xue’er took the shirt, then went into the bedroom to change.

Inside the room, Lin Xue’er took off her clothes, releasing her jade rabbits, although restrained by her bra.

Lin Xue’er looked at herself in the mirror, her alluring and sexy figure tempting even herself.

Could Ye Chen really control himself?

Lin Xue’er took a deep breath, then put on the T-shirt.

It fitted just right, as if tailor-made for her.
