At six o'clock in the morning, the dawn was just breaking and the city was still immersed in a hazy state.
Li Lin was in the cozy living room of Li Lan's home, sitting on the sofa with a cup of steaming white tea in his hand, relaxing for a moment.
At this moment, the mobile phone on the coffee table suddenly rang, breaking the tranquility of the early morning.
Li Lin glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Qiao An calling. He gently pressed the answer button.
"Brother, it's bad. I saw two gangs fighting downstairs!" Joan's anxious voice came from the receiver.
When Li Lin heard this, his face did not show much surprise.
Because just last night, Hou Yaodong called him and said that they found someone following Qian Lingyun and his lover Chen Shuping.
Li Lin was also a little worried at the time and asked Hou Yaodong how he planned to solve the problem.
Hou Yaodong just smiled, with a hint of cruelty in his smile, "To deal with thugs, of course, we should use thugs' methods."
Li Lin didn't expect that Hou Yaodong would act so quickly. He sent people to clear the area early in the morning.
Li Lin thought for a moment, then smiled and said to Qiao An, "Go eat, and just pretend you didn't see anything about this."
Qiao An on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned. He didn't expect Li Lin to react like this.
After all, the fight downstairs looked quite intense, but Li Lin's attitude was so calm.
Qiao An's worry and Li Lin's calmness formed a sharp contrast. One was so nervous that he almost went to the trunk to grab a weapon, while the other did not take it seriously at all and was as steady as an old dog.
At the same time, Qian Lingyun sat alone in the slightly dim study at home, and the sunlight outside the window had not yet fully entered the room.
In front of him was an ashtray full of cigarette butts. He smoked one cigarette after another. The cigarette in his hand flickered a faint orange-red light in the air, and the ashtray was almost full of cigarette butts.
Chen Shuping didn't go home again for another night!
Qian Lingyun's eyes revealed deep fatigue and helplessness.
He knew that this woman was beyond redemption, and the relationship between them seemed to have been shattered without him noticing.
He hated it! He hated his own incompetence. He tried hard to balance his career and family, but he was never able to do both, which led to their marriage being in this state.
He also hated Chen Shuping's indifference. All the vows and sweet words she had spoken to him had now become nothing.
He sighed, crushed the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray, and rubbed his cheeks with his yellowed hands from smoke, trying to sober himself up.
But no matter how hard he rubbed, the fatigue and vicissitudes on his face could not be wiped away.
At this moment, his cell phone suddenly rang, and the abrupt ringtone sounded particularly harsh in the quiet room.
Qian Lingyun glanced at the screen of his mobile phone. It was an unfamiliar number.
He had no habit of answering unfamiliar calls, but for some reason, at this moment, he had an inexplicable premonition in his heart and pressed the answer button.
There was first a teasing laugh from the other end of the phone, which was full of sarcasm and complacency, and then a sarcastic voice said.
"Mayor Qian, do you want to know how your wife fools around with that gigolo? If you can't imagine, I can send you a video...hahaha..."
When Qian Lingyun heard the sound, he felt a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head and he took a deep breath.
His hand was tightly gripping the phone, his knuckles turning white from the force.
After all his calculations, he finally fell into Chen Shuping's hands!
Qian Lingyun's heart was filled with anger and despair. This woman was such a disaster!
However, his many years of official career had made him calm in the face of emergencies. He pretended to be calm and said coldly, "You dialed the wrong number?" Then he hung up the phone decisively.
His hands were shaking slightly, but the anger in his heart was burning.
Immediately afterwards, Qian Lingyun called Li Lin.
The moment the call was connected, Qian Lingyun's voice trembled a little: "Xiao Lin, Chen Shuping is in trouble again..."
Li Lin listened calmly to Qian Lingyun's narration of what happened, and couldn't help frowning.
He knew that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.
What happened to Chen Shuping was most likely a carefully planned conspiracy aimed at dealing with Qian Lingyun.
Li Lin was secretly thinking about countermeasures in his heart. He comforted Qian Lingyun and said, "Mayor Qian, don't worry. I will definitely help you find out about this matter. You must not panic!"
"If they call again, try to communicate with them to find out their intentions."
After hanging up the phone, Li Lin's face became solemn.
This is a bit unusual!
If the other party just wants to force Qian Lingyun to withdraw from the mayoral election.
Then you don't need to let him know and can just post it on the website.
In this way, Qian Lingyun is bound to be affected. A cadre who is exposed in a family scandal will definitely be abandoned by the provincial party committee!
Why did they go to the trouble of calling Qian Lingyun?
What is the purpose?
With these questions, Li Lin called Hou Yaodong again.
"Brother Hou, Mayor Qian's lover was secretly photographed cheating on her. They called Mayor Qian but didn't put forward any conditions. What do you think about this?"
Hou Yaodong felt a little guilty after hearing this. He had been secretly sending people to keep an eye on Chen Shuping, but someone with ulterior motives still took advantage of the situation...
He is still a little puzzled. How did those people secretly take photos of evidence of Chen Shuping's infidelity under his nose?
He sighed, "Xiao Lin, listen to me, this matter was my negligence, but the two people I caught at the gate of Mayor Qian's community this morning are from the same group as the one who secretly photographed Chen Shuping.
