Chapter 610: Chapter 591: Conscience

Ye Chen looked up, and the female secretary’s neckline revealed a void, "Shit, isn’t this blatant seduction?" Unable to resist, Ye Chen pinched himself and chuckled, "Sister, you must not be envious or jealous, little brother really can’t handle it!"

"Hehe, Mr. Ye, how could that be? You’re a delegate of the National People’s Congress, a member of the Political Consultative Conference!" The female secretary clicked her tongue, "In the future, your prospects are limitless. Ah, unlike your sister here, who will be unwanted when she gets old and faded!"

"How could that be!" Ye Chen wickedly slipped his hand under the female secretary’s short skirt, which hugged her perky buttocks, feeling very full and firm. Ye Chen gently pushed aside the secretary’s panties, and inside was all slippery. He slipped two fingers straight in.

"Yi..." The female secretary immediately inhaled a cool breath, her whole body leaning on Ye Chen, her rosy lips whispering into Ye Chen’s ear, "Mr. Ye, you’re really amazing, making me feel so comfortable!"

Ye Chen’s scalp tingled at the thought that she probably said the same thing to Jiang Zhonggen. He immediately withdrew his hand and wickedly said with a smirk, "Get me cleaned up!"

The female secretary shot Ye Chen a mournful look, probably because he hadn’t satisfied her, leaving her quite dissatisfied. Biting her lip, she got up and took Ye Chen’s finger into her mouth, working it until Ye Chen’s finger felt utterly numb. He quickly pulled back and laughed, "That’s enough!"

"Mr. Ye, why stop?" The secretary’s plaintive look made Ye Chen feel somewhat guilty.

"That... Just take good care of Secretary Jiang, everything else, don’t mess around!" Ye Chen felt extremely awkward for having riled her up and then leaving her high and dry.

"Sigh... Secretary Jiang never satisfies me, so I was thinking about Mr. Ye..." The female secretary, seeing Ye Chen’s robust figure, wanted to try out his skills. But Ye Chen was too crafty, having just started and then stopped abruptly, leaving her deeply dissatisfied.

Fortunately, Ye Chen didn’t go too far, and while they were just flirting, Jiang Zhonggen came out, his face full of joy. Today’s meeting topic was about strengthening the economic construction of Jianghuai City and promoting the socialist process. Because Jianghuai City had Ye Chen, Jiang Zhonggen planned to set Ye Chen up as a figurehead, a symbol to be promoted as part of Jianghuai’s city image.

"Xiao Ye, you’re here?" Jiang Zhonggen came in with a cheerful smile.

"Oh, Secretary Jiang, has the meeting finished?" Ye Chen hurriedly asked.

"Yes, the content of this meeting is very important!" Jiang Zhonggen sat down and smiled, "In this meeting, we set three goals. One is to make Jianghuai City into the economic center of Z Province within three years. Another is to establish you as an outstanding entrepreneur. So, Xiao Ye, you must work hard!"

"I’m dizzy, what’s this got to do with me?" Ye Chen was startled.

"How can it not be related?" Jiang Zhonggen eagerly said, "As the general manager of Black Water Security Company and the chairman of Si Yang Group, you have made significant contributions to our Jianghuai City. Thus, the government has decided to award you the title of Outstanding Entrepreneur. Moreover, as a pillar enterprise, Si Yang Group will also be recognized as a model enterprise by Jianghuai City. Xiao Ye, strive hard!"

While speaking, Jiang Zhonggen’s cunning smile made Ye Chen somewhat puzzled, he exclaimed, "Why am I suddenly getting all these benefits?"

"This is what you deserve!" Jiang Zhonggen patted Ye Chen’s shoulder and said, "Also, you have been awarded the title of Philanthropist of the Year. Do some more good deeds. Haha!"

"Yes, I definitely won’t let the nation down!" Ye Chen naturally agreed on the spot. Doing good deeds naturally brings good karma, which is normal. Besides, Ye Chen did indeed plan to generously donate and renovate Fuxing Orphanage.

"Alright, go back and make a good showing!" Jiang Zhonggen got up, shook hands with Ye Chen, and said, "At the end of the year, it will be time for evaluation and rewards!"

Ye Chen couldn’t decipher the meaning behind Jiang Zhonggen’s four words, but he nodded and said, "Alright."

Leaving the City Committee, Ye Chen began contemplating how to make a good impression. Although he understood why Jiang Zhonggen was suddenly so ’friendly’, after all, it was for his own good.

Ye Chen immediately drove to the Heavenly Reversal Gang headquarters. Xiao Bai and the Four Heavenly Kings had already gone ahead to the gang. The account books of the past few days needed to be sorted, and some internal affairs had to be handled. When Ye Chen arrived at the headquarters of the Heavenly Reversal Gang, there had occurred an incident that was neither trivial nor major. The Four Heavenly Kings and Xiao Bai, among others, were gathered in the office, with several little brothers standing with their heads hung.

"What happened?" Ye Chen asked curiously.

"Brother Chen, there’s over a million missing from the company accounts!" Xiao Bai, very angered, threw the account book onto the table, and roared, "These bastards are cooking the books and still dare to argue they didn’t take the money? If you haven’t taken the money, then what’s with the fake accounts? Do you think you can just erase this million-plus from the books in confusion? Let me tell you, every penny here is the retirement and bereavement funds for the brothers of the Heavenly Reversal Gang. Can you live with yourselves stuffing it into your own pockets?"

"Big brother, we really didn’t take the money!" A few little brothers in charge of the accounts said with great grievance, heads bowed, "We only decided to cook the books to cover it up because we were afraid of being discovered by big brother after we realized the money was missing!"

"Bullshit!" Xiao Bai exploded with rage, "You still dare to argue?! Do you want me to throw you into the Punishment Hall?"

"Big brother, we... we really are innocent!" The little brothers immediately begged for mercy.

"Let me ask them!" Ye Chen immediately glanced at the few men, then asked, "You guys organize the accounts every day, correct?"

"Yes, Brother Chen!" The little brothers immediately nodded.

"When did you notice the money was missing?" Ye Chen pressed on.

"Just the day before yesterday. After we organized the banknotes they brought up and put the cash in the safe, but when we took it to the bank, we found over a million missing!" The little brothers spoke in unison, and Ye Chen did not spot any flaws.

He continued to interrogate them with a few more questions and still found no issues. He walked around the room for a bit, then immediately said to Xiao Bai, "Investigating this issue is actually quite simple, just screen the little brothers below to see who has been acting unusual lately, especially those who are spending extravagantly!"

"Brother Chen, I’ll investigate this issue!" As soon as he said it, Xiao Bai started to act as if nothing had happened and began to screen the little brothers, also recruiting a few trusted, loyal little brothers to join in the investigation.

Ye Chen then began discussing the donation to the Fuxing Orphanage with the Four Heavenly Kings.

The next day, the lead on the missing million-plus quickly emerged, pinpointing a suspect, his real name Yang Pai Feng, nicknamed Yang Pigu. The guy was skinny, but he was all brute strength, having learned martial arts, he was considered quite powerful within the Heavenly Reversal Gang. However, contrary to Ye Chen’s expectations, this guy was not at all flashy as imagined, but dressed in plain clothing.

When Yang Pai Feng was brought in, he was wearing the Black Water Security Company uniform, with a pair of boxing gloves on his hands, and his shoes were falling apart. There were also some loose threads on them, seemingly self-stitched but torn open again.

"Did you steal the company’s money?" Ye Chen sat in the boss’s chair, putting on an air of authority, with the Four Heavenly Kings standing behind him and Xiao Bai standing at the door, blocking the man’s escape route. Originally, Ye Chen thought the man would deny it, but to his surprise, he admitted it without hesitation, "Yes, Brother Chen! I stole the company’s money!"

Yang Pai Feng’s attitude stunned Ye Chen and even the Four Heavenly Kings and Xiao Bai looked taken aback by his straightforward confession. He could have easily denied it. Was there some unspeakable secret involved?

"Tell me how you stole the money?" Ye Chen toyed with a cigar in his hand.

"The money flowed into the finance department from the casino, and I personally handed it over. I secretly memorized the safe’s password!" Yang Pai Feng didn’t hide anything and confessed everything. Ye Chen asked with a smile, "It’s my first time seeing someone who stole money be so honest. Now, tell me, why did you steal so much?"

"I..." At this point, Yang Pai Feng took a deep breath, his eyes becoming moist, and said, "My mom’s in the late stages of cancer and we had no money for treatment, so I stole over a million from the company. I’ve already spent more than fifty thousand on her treatment, but my mom’s condition hasn’t improved at all, she’s still undergoing chemotherapy every day."

Seeing Yang Pai Feng’s demeanor, Ye Chen roughly understood the situation. In other gangs, the rule would be to chop off an arm to set an example. However, Ye Chen found himself in a state of reluctance. Cutting off his arm wouldn’t recover the money, nor retain the person, such a fine man with strong capabilities, who could make significant contributions to the gang; but if they didn’t cut off his arm, it would be against the gang’s principles. If the other little brothers found out, anyone would dare to boldly steal money from the company. Without appropriate punishment, there would be no way to make an example of him.

"Brother Chen, according to the gang’s rules, we should break one of his arms and then expel him from the gang!" Xiao Bai immediately stepped forward.
