The pinnacle of power: starting with having sex with a female leader-Chapter 45 - 00: Are You Running a Fever?
Last night, after talking with Cheng Yuan, Ma Guorong let out a sigh of relief.
However, Ma Guorong did not blindly believe Cheng Yuan’s words and instead called Jiang Nuo.
Jiang Nuo was unreachable, but Jiang Xinyu was contactable.
Hearing that Jiang Nuo was not in the office but had gone to a classmate’s house, Ma Guorong finally felt completely relieved.
But for some reason, he suddenly saw Cheng Yuan.
Ma Guorong’s eyelids twitched violently, as if something bad was about to happen.
Ma Guorong asked with a cold face, "Cheng Yuan, what are you doing here?"
Cheng Yuan naturally did not mind; he had already dealt with Ma Guorong’s wife and daughter.
What did it matter if Ma Guorong’s attitude was a bit off?
Cheng Yuan placed the fruit basket on the bedside cabinet very formally, with a very respectful tone.
"Secretary, hearing about your car accident worried me a lot. As your subordinate, I should come and visit you. I hope you recover soon. The Weidong River project still needs you to oversee everything."
Ma Guorong was furious!
The Weidong River project had already alerted the mayor.
He, a mere small town party committee secretary, to oversee what grand situation?
Cheng Yuan, this bastard, was definitely doing it on purpose to anger him!
But Ma Guorong could not blow up.
Ma Guorong gave a cold hum, "It’s just a minor injury, I will be discharged from the hospital soon."
"It’s good that the secretary is fine, I’m relieved! This document, please sign it, Director Zhang has already stamped it for you."
Ma Guorong took the document, looked at it, and reluctantly signed his name.
Cheng Yuan finally managed to barely complete Shen Manwen’s task and let out a sigh of relief.
"Then I won’t disturb the secretary any longer, take a good rest, I need to report to the executive now."
Ma Guorong quickly stopped Cheng Yuan.
"Cheng Yuan, wait a moment. Did you go to my office yesterday afternoon?"
Cheng Yuan had already thought of a strategy and nodded naturally.
"Yes, I went to the secretary’s office, but no one responded when I knocked, so I went home."
Ma Guorong stared at Cheng Yuan with a skeptical gaze, trying to read something from his face.
But Cheng Yuan, who came from a secretary background, was cunning and watchful. Ma Guorong could not make out anything.
In the end, Ma Guorong waved his hand, "Leave, I need to rest."
Cheng Yuan bowed slightly to Ma Guorong and then walked nonchalantly out of the room.
Cheng Yuan drove his Passat towards the city government.
While waiting at a traffic light, his mobile phone suddenly rang.
Seeing the name on the caller ID, a cold and sharp light flashed in Cheng Yuan’s eyes!
Wang Shan, back then you decided to move on; I don’t blame you.
After all, everyone has the right to choose.
But to devise against me with Ma Guotao and still dare to call me?
Do you really think I’m that easy to mess with?
Believe it or not, I will find a chance to finish you off?
Cheng Yuan took a deep breath to steady his emotions and answered the phone as if nothing was wrong.
"Calling me so early? Did you miss me?"
Wang Shan playfully scolded, "Cheng Yuan, are you flirting with me?"
Cheng Yuan chuckled lightly, "Wang Shan, we are adults here, stop pretending. Didn’t you invite me to sing last night because you hoped I would flirt with you? Or perhaps, you hoped I’d skip wooing you entirely and go straight to the point?"
"You! You’re shameless!!"
Wang Shan’s face turned red with Cheng Yuan’s words.
What’s happening?
After not contacting for years, how had that refined young man become so raffish?
Thinking of Cheng Yuan’s handsome face, Wang Shan couldn’t help but squeeze her legs together.
She was actually a bit wet.
It took a lot of willpower for Wang Shan to calm her emotions.
"Cheng Yuan, let’s be serious, are you okay? I heard that the party secretary of Lingshan had a car accident, and I was worried for you all night, unable to reach you by phone."
Indeed, there were missed calls from Wang Shan on last night, and Cheng Yuan’s tone softened.
"I’m fine, thanks for your concern!"
Wang Shan hesitated before asking, "Were you out in the rain yesterday? Did you have a fever?"
Cheng Yuan’s mouth twitched upward slightly, already knowing Wang Shan was up to no good.
Calling him early in the morning was indeed to probe him.
"Don’t even say it! It’s exactly as you said, I might have caught a fever because of the rain. I felt hot all over when I got home, like I was on fire!"
"With such heavy rain last night, how did you bring down your fever? Did you go to the pharmacy for some fever-reducing medicine?"
Cheng Yuan grinned.
Of course, he had sought out Ma Guorong’s daughter to bring down the fever!
She administered quite a few fever-reducing shots!
Of course, Cheng Yuan would not say that.
Cheng Yuan came up with a bluffer’s story.
"Just a guy sweating over a fever, what’s the big deal? I used to just run and sweat it out."
"But last night, I ran for a half hour in the wind and rain, and still no fever reduction!"
"The most annoying part was that not only did my fever not go down, I started desiring women! If only you were by my side, maybe you could have helped reduce my fever! Heh heh..."
Cheng Yuan’s words left Wang Shan parched and impulsive.
"Cheng Yuan, since we didn’t make it happen yesterday, shall we continue today?"
