The Strongest Master Venturing Urban-Chapter 845: There’s No Woman You Can’t Handle

In the afternoon, Ouyang Tianxiong suddenly received news that many industries under the Ouyang Group were simultaneously sealed off.

And the reason was all due to fire safety violations.

Sensing something wrong, he immediately called Gan Qiu.

"Hello, Mayor Gan. Calling now, am I disturbing you?"

Gan Qiu replied coldly, "What is it?"

"With the year-end nearing, many of my industries have been investigated. I don't know what's going on?"

"Oh, aren't you Chen Bin's father-in-law? Who would dare to seal your industries?"

"I asked Haitang. She said that didn't happen; those are just rumors."

"Whether or not they are rumors, you'd better go to Chen Bin. He's the head in Tianhe now."

With those words, Gan Qiu directly hung up the phone.

Ouyang Tianxiong's face looked extremely grim as he slammed his fist on the table.

He had shown respect to Gan Qiu for so many years, yet the other party started troubles over a rumor.

However, after his anger subsided, he could only sigh helplessly.

No matter how arrogant Ouyang Tianxiong usually was, in the end, he was just a businessman.

Regarding Gan Qiu, he had no choice but to admit defeat.

Driving to the city government, after checking in with the person at the front, Gan Qiu replied that he was busy and had no time to meet.

Ouyang Tianxiong knew this was intentional, so he sighed and waited at the city government gate for Gan Qiu to finish work.

In the mayor's office, the secretary said.

"Mayor Gan, Ouyang Tianxiong is waiting for you downstairs."

Gan Qiu said coldly: "If he wants to wait, just let him. I have to work overtime anyway."

At the end of the workday, he had nothing important to do.

So he turned on the computer and started watching a TV series.

Episode after episode, he seemed quite engrossed.

Until he felt hungry and realized it was already eight-thirty.

He stood up and stretched.

Feeling the time was right, he then left the office.

Ouyang Tianxiong, waiting downstairs, was already filled with resentment and inwardly cursing Gan Qiu's ancestors.

Just then, the driver suddenly pointed outside the window and said.

"Mr. Ouyang, Mayor Gan's car is coming out!"

Ouyang Tianxiong immediately glanced outside and, after confirming the license plate, quickly said, "Honk the horn!"

"Beep beep!"

After the driver honked twice, Gan Qiu's car indeed stopped.

Seeing this, Ouyang Tianxiong immediately got out of the car and walked over quickly.

At this time, Gan Qiu had already lowered the rear window.

"Oh, isn't it Mr. Ouyang? What do you need from me?"

Ouyang Tianxiong immediately replied flatteringly, "Mayor Gan, you must be hungry after finishing work. How about I treat you to some food?"

"Better not. My wife just called to say dinner is ready and waiting for me to return."

"Please don't say no! I've also prepared a meal, and I need to report some work to Mayor Gan."

After hesitating, Gan Qiu nodded.

"Alright then, since Mr. Ouyang is so hospitable, it would be impolite for me to refuse."

Nodding, Ouyang Tianxiong immediately turned and went back to the car.

After getting in the car, he led Gan Qiu's car to a resort hotel.

After entering a private room, the waitstaff began serving dishes.

Both were already hungry, so they didn't engage in much conversation.

After eating some, Ouyang Tianxiong wiped his mouth with a napkin.

He said first: "The rumors about Haitang and Secretary Chen are all false. If it weren't for Mayor Gan telling me, I wouldn't have known such rumors existed."

"There's no smoke without fire. I heard she met Chen Bin in private many times on Lion King Mountain. Chen Bin is in a top position now; you surely want to marry your daughter to him, right?"

"How could that be? Chen Bin and I are enemies. He sent my woman to prison, and I can't hate him enough. How could I marry my daughter to him?"

"Really?"

"Of course, it's true. How could I dare to lie to you!"

"Whether it's true or not, I hope you understand. As long as I, Gan Qiu, am the mayor of Tianhe City, this place is my domain. Anyone who dares to play tricks on me, serving two masters, will meet a miserable end!"

"Absolutely. In my heart, you are always the helmsman of Tianhe. Chen Bin has only been here for a few days. Even if he causes a fuss, he's still nothing."

"Well then, I can call the city's fire department and see when they can lift your restrictions."

Without a definite timeline, these words were meaningless to Ouyang Tianxiong.

So he continued negotiating: "As the new year approaches, how about I send them some shopping cards?"

"How much are shopping cards worth? Do you think they'd risk their positions for that?"

"What do you suggest I do then?"

"Take ten percent of the future monthly revenue from those sealed stores and use that to appease them. After all, if they're sealed for a month, you'd lose everything. Spending that money can avert disasters, so why not?"

Hearing this, Ouyang Tianxiong immediately understood.

It wasn't the fire department people who wanted money, but Gan Qiu himself!

Ten percent of the revenue, Gan Qiu truly dared to ask for it.

But under these circumstances, disagreeing meant losing the remaining ninety percent as well.

"That's a good idea. Let's do as Mayor Gan says!"

After dinner, Ouyang Tianxiong personally sent Gan Qiu to his car.

Once the other party left, his expression immediately turned grim.

"Damn it, you bastard! I will definitely take revenge for this!"

At the same time, Chen Bin, who had just laid down at home, received a phone call.

Seeing the caller ID, he promptly answered.

"What's the matter?"

Cheng Zhuang's voice came through the phone, "Bro, are you seeing Ouyang Haitang?"

These words left Chen Bin confused, "What are you talking about? When did I get involved with her?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Who knows? Ouyang Haitang is young and pretty, and should suit your taste."

Not annoyed by Cheng Zhuang's teasing, Chen Bin explained.

"That woman is not simple; I always feel she has another agenda for approaching me."

"In my heart, there isn't a woman you can't handle. If you're interested, go for it."

"With the current instability in Tianhe, I can't let Mayor Gan catch me off guard because of a woman. Forget it, let's not talk about this. Help me investigate my housemaid, Ji Ruyi."

These words immediately made Cheng Zhuang's tone tense.

"Did you find something wrong with her? I've long suspected she might be a spy planted beside you by someone."

Chen Bin laughed and explained, "Not really. I just want to learn about her family background, just in case."

"Okay, I know what to do now…"
