When he analyzed that the shipment was a play directed and performed by Shen Qing herself, he guessed that Chairman Tan probably already knew his true identity.

Sure enough, she admitted it.

"Does Chairman Tan have something for me to help with?"

"District Chief Song is very clever."

Chairman Tan was a bit surprised.

She thought that once Song Guanchao realized the truth, he would be very angry and think she was deliberately messing with him.

However, she underestimated Song Guanchao's intelligence.

Song Guanchao was not deceived by the appearance.

He saw through her real intentions.

"I'm a very easy person to talk to. If Chairman Tan wants my help, I'd be very willing. But Chairman Tan's way of doing things is a bit over the top."

Asking for help without discussing a reward, she instead created a play, putting the blame for the missing 200,000 worth of goods on him, tarnishing his reputation right off the bat.

Although Song Guanchao knew that Chairman Tan did this probably to test him.

But that was Chairman Tan's business. As someone involved, Song Guanchao was very dissatisfied with her actions, extremely dissatisfied!

Chairman Tan sensed his dissatisfaction and said with a bitter smile, "I had no choice, and I hope District Chief Song can understand. Of course, I will give District Chief Song a satisfactory explanation."

"Could you please give the phone to Shen Qing, District Chief Song?"

Song Guanchao didn't say any harsh words over the phone. Since he was sure that Chairman Tan's ulterior motive was not for its own sake, he decided to see what she really wanted to do.

He returned the phone, and Shen Qing and Chairman Tan talked for a few minutes. It was more like Chairman Tan was talking all the time, while Shen Qing just kept responding with "hmm."

After hanging up, Shen Qing said, "Chairman Tan is coming over soon."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Song Guanchao, "Turn around."

Song Guanchao gave a skin-deep smile, as if he didn't hear her.

Seeing that he was unmoved, Shen Qing glared at him with resentment, grabbed a towel, straightened herself out under the covers, and then got out of bed.

She went to the bathroom, put her clothes back on.

However, when she came out, she saw Song Guanchao walking completely naked from the bed.

Naked, unhidden in the slightest, standing confidently in front of her.

This scene left her a bit stunned.

She instinctively wanted to curse, but held back, pursed her lips, and turned her head away not to look at him.

Song Guanchao chuckled coldly and walked towards the bathroom.

Whether it was Shen Qing or the as-yet-unseen Chairman Tan, to be honest, he had no particular regard for these two women.

No matter what Chairman Tan wanted to discuss, it didn't change the fact that she was dealing in drugs.

This identity naturally opposed Song Guanchao.

If it wasn't for investigating the source of the grams of drugs framing Yan Han, Chairman Tan would never have had the chance to intersect with him in this lifetime.

Song Guanchao came out fully dressed.

About twenty minutes later, there was a knock on the door.

Shen Qing went to open it, "Chairman Tan."

Song Guanchao, sitting on the bed, raised his head upon hearing the address.

The visitor looked no older than thirty, standing at around 1.65 meters, which wasn't short for a woman.

She wore a pair of wide-legged, pure white tailored pants, with wide pant legs covering a pair of high heels, immediately raising her height by six or seven centimeters, reaching about 1.70 meters, exuding an impressive aura.

Her top was a soft and draping white chiffon blouse.

The scale of her bust was slightly exaggerated, and through the chiffon blouse, the outline of her bra was visible.

As his gaze traveled upward, when he saw her face, Song Guanchao was momentarily dazzled.

Her eyes sparkled, brows like distant dark silk, a small upturned nose, thin lips, giving an overall impression of an imposing presence.

Such extraordinary beauty made average men lack the courage to look her directly in the eye.

Song Guanchao, however, fixed his gaze on her until she came over.

"District Chief Song."

Chairman Tan stood in front of him, extended a hand and smiled.

Song Guanchao reached out, shook her hand, and said, "I hope Chairman Tan's explanation will satisfy me."

"District Chief Song will certainly be satisfied."

Chairman Tan's expression was very earnest, then she turned to Shen Qing and said, "Go book a suite and have the hotel send over a pot of tea and some snacks."

"District Chief Song, let's change places. This is not suitable for conversation."

Song Guanchao nodded and left the room with her.

Ten minutes later, they arrived at the presidential suite.

The hotel had prepared tea and snacks.

Song Guanchao and Chairman Tan sat face to face on single sofas, while Shen Qing sat beside Chairman Tan, silent and trying her best to be like air.

Chairman Tan crossed her legs and picked up a teacup, exuding the aura of a lady from a distinguished family.

It's hard to imagine that this elegant and intelligent woman actually controls the provincial city's underground drug trade.

Song Guanchao picked up his teacup and said, "Chairman Tan, why don't you tell me."

Chairman Tan smiled and said, "I have something I'd like District Chief Song to help with."

"But before I ask for your help, I will tell you something you've been investigating."

Song Guanchao raised an eyebrow, "Chairman Tan knows what I'm investigating?"

Chairman Tan gently tapped the teacup with her slender fingers and said a name, "Yan Han."

Song Guanchao was not surprised. With Chairman Tan's capabilities, it was not difficult to find out about this matter.

However, her next words shocked Song Guanchao greatly.

"I've heard that 60 grams of drugs were found in Yan Han's car. District Chief Song wants to find the transaction records of those 60 grams of drugs from me, right?"

"District Chief Song must already have a suspect in mind, right? I guess the person you suspect is Jiangzhou City's Deputy Mayor, Zhang Yan."

Chairman Tan tilted her head playfully, her big eyes seemingly able to speak, "District Chief Song, am I right?"

Song Guanchao did not respond immediately.

He finished his cup of tea in one gulp; as he put it down, Chairman Tan took the initiative to grab the teapot and refill his cup.

"District Chief Song's investigation approach isn't wrong. Yan Han was indeed framed, and it was indeed Zhang Yan who did it."

"I can provide the transaction records."

"But the person who bought the drugs was someone arranged by Zhang Yan, she didn't show up in person. So, while Yan Han can be exonerated, there's no way to ensure Zhang Yan gets the punishment she deserves."

This woman, she really is well-prepared.

The more prepared she is, the more curious Song Guanchao is about what exactly she wants from him?

"What does Chairman Tan want me to do?"

"Don't rush."

Chairman Tan put down her teacup, smiled and stood up, "We can discuss our matters another day."

Discuss them another day?

So you came over tonight just to say this?

This could have been said over the phone, right?

Why bother going to such lengths?

Song Guanchao somewhat couldn't understand Chairman Tan's actions.

But the initiative was in her hands; since she wasn't in a hurry, Song Guanchao naturally wasn't in a hurry.

He nodded and stood up, "Then we'll..."

Before he finished his sentence, he suddenly felt his heart pounding hard twice.

The blood in his body seemingly became hot and agitated.

He suddenly had a strong impulse, an urge to vent desire.

Something's wrong, his body was really wrong!

Chairman Tan seemed to notice his abnormality, but showed no surprise, instead smilingly said, "Shen Qing, take good care of District Chief Song."

Shen Qing bit her lip, stood up from the sofa, and gently replied with an 'um'.

Song Guanchao instantly understood what was happening to his body.

This woman had drugged him!

"Chairman Tan, what do you mean?" Song Guanchao struggled to suppress the drug's effects in his body, his voice tinged with anger.

"I don't trust District Chief Song enough, so I've resorted to this, and hope District Chief Song can understand."

Chairman Tan apologetically smiled, "Shen Qing is still a virgin; District Chief Song isn't losing out."

"I wish District Chief Song a pleasant evening."

Leaving those words, Chairman Tan turned and left.

"Damn it!"

Song Guanchao cursed, and rushed up in a few steps.

Chairman Tan had already reached the door, grabbed the door handle ready to open, but suddenly heard a commotion behind her.

She turned around just as Song Guanchao reached her.

Song Guanchao breathed like fire, his eyes bloodshot, like a wild beast.

He grabbed her wrist.

Feeling Song Guanchao's hand like an iron grip tightly clamping her wrist, Chairman Tan was startled.

Her eyes, which were calm from start to end, now showed slight panic.

But she still forced herself to remain calm, "District Chief Song, you..."

Before she could finish speaking, she felt her body lighten, as Song Guanchao directly hoisted her up over his shoulder.

Chairman Tan hesitated, seeming to guess what he intended to do, panic surged in her heart, "Song Guanchao, what are you doing!"

"Doing you!"

Song Guanchao slapped her hard on the butt, turned and strode towards the somewhat dazed Shen Qing, then scooped her up into his arms as well, sneering while heading towards the room, "Chairman Tan, you've delivered yourself to me, if I refused, it'd be a bit impolite."
