The next morning, Chen Ze was sound asleep when a series of urgent knocks on the door woke him up.
He sat up and muttered, "Who's so rude, knocking on the door so early in the morning?"
Looking through the peephole at the door, I saw a woman standing there, about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with wavy, dyed blonde hair, a slender figure, and a delicate face.
Chen Ze was certain he didn't know this woman, and he hadn't ordered any special services. Besides, weren't those special services only available at night? Did they operate during the day?
After thinking for a while, he decided to send the woman away. "Click!" Chen Ze opened the door and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I don't need any special services. Miss, you can leave now."
To his surprise, as soon as he opened the door, the woman forced her way into the room, a seductive smile on her face: "Mr. Chen, I'm here to talk to you about business, not the kind of door-to-door service you're thinking of. Of course, if you agree to my conditions, I can accept providing you with services once."
Upon hearing the woman call out his surname, his eyes turned cold: "Who sent you? What's your purpose?" As he spoke, Chen Ze secretly turned on his phone to record a video and broadcast it on the television, in case the woman tried to blackmail him.
The woman sat on the bed and smiled, "Mr. Chen, I was sent by the leaders of Ningcheng. He asked me to tell you that he hopes you can bring your partners to invest in Ningcheng, and he can also give your company a year of tax exemption."
Chen Ze was secretly surprised. Good heavens, a year of tax exemption. It seems that the leaders of Ningcheng really went all out to win him over.
"Miss, I don't know, could you tell me which leader sent you?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, I can't tell you right now. You'll know when you go to Ningcheng to invest."
"Since you don't want to talk about it, then forget it. All my money has been invested in Shacheng, and I don't have any extra funds to invest in Ningcheng for the time being. You should go find someone else."
"Mr. Chen, I'm trying to advise you kindly. Don't be ungrateful. Don't think that just because you have a little money you can go against my boss. You need to know that in this society, money serves power. If you refuse my proposal, the consequences will be severe. I hope you will think it through before you answer me."
Chen Ze frowned, his eyes narrowed into slits, and he said coldly, "Are you threatening me?"
"Hmph! You can think of it that way. In our leaders' eyes, you're just a businessman with a little money, nothing more."
Chen Ze sneered: "Unfortunately, your threats are useless. I am a legitimate businessman. What can he do to me, no matter how high his official rank is?"
The woman took off her coat and glared at him fiercely: "Are you sure you want to refuse to cooperate with us?"
He spread his hands: "Of course, I've already made myself very clear. Do I need to repeat myself?"
As soon as Chen Ze finished speaking, the woman suddenly ripped her clothes off, took off her underwear, and then hugged him tightly, screaming, "Indecent assault!"
Chen Ze hurriedly pushed her away and threw her onto the bed.
Suddenly, the door was kicked open, and a police officer rushed up, pinned him down, and warned, "Don't move."
Chen Ze forcefully shook him off, grabbed his phone, and ran towards the door. Unfortunately, two policemen stopped him at the door and pinned him to the ground.
"Kid, you're pretty strong."
"Fuck your mother, let me go! What crime have I committed? What right do you have to arrest me?"
A policeman squatted down and chuckled, "What crime did you commit? Attempted assault on a woman is enough to get you a year in jail."
Because of their loud noise in the hotel corridor, other guests opened their doors and peeked out to see who was causing the disturbance. After discovering that it was the police arresting people, they quickly closed their doors again.
At this moment, An Yumo in the next room was also awakened by the noise. She peeked out and saw that the police had arrested her boss. She hurriedly put on a coat, came out and asked, "Why are you arresting my boss? Let him go, or I'll call the police."
"Young lady, are you blind? Can't you see we're police officers? Why are you calling the police?"
"How do I know if you're a real or fake police officer? Do you have identification?"
One of the lead police officers pulled out his badge to show her, then said coldly, "This is none of your business. Go back to your room."
After saying that, the three policemen took Chen Ze away.
An Yumo hurriedly took out her phone and called Wang Sikong.
"Hello, Deputy Secretary Wang, Chen Ze has been taken away by the police."
The voice on the other end of the phone said, "What happened? Where were you arrested? I'm coming right away."
"I don't know what happened, but the police came to the Shacheng Hotel and took Chen Ze away."
At the Furong District Police Station, Chen Ze looked at the cramped interrogation room and thought to himself: "I've been locked up in this kind of place again. This is the third time. This is really unlucky."
"Click," the door opened, and instead of the police interrogating him, the extremely arrogant woman entered.
"So, Mr. Chen, you businessmen are nothing but a lump of mud in our hands. We can mold you however we want. I'll say it again: either cooperate with us, or I'll throw you in jail for a year."
"You think you can make me submit to you by using these underhanded tactics? What a joke! Do you even know who I am?"
The woman scoffed, "Who are you? Tell me."
"I am a successor to socialism, and no evil force can make me bow down."
"Let's see if you're tougher on words or on sticks. Captain Hao, come in."
As soon as she finished speaking, the police officer who had led the group in the hotel walked in, holding a stun gun. He pressed a switch, and the stun gun instantly emitted a blue arc of electricity, accompanied by crackling sounds.
"Mr. Chen, don't say I didn't give you a chance. If you don't cooperate, I'll let you taste artificial lightning first, and then throw you in prison to enjoy the country's free food."
"You stinking woman, do you think you own the prison? That's hilarious."
Chen Ze believed that as long as An Yumo called Wang Sikong, he would definitely come to rescue him, and he would never bow down to this woman.
He glared coldly at Captain Hao, who was holding a baton, and warned, "You dare to use vigilante justice on me? Do you know who I am? Let me tell you, I am the biggest investor in Shacheng right now. If you dare to touch me, I'll strip you of your police uniform. Even if your chief comes, he won't be able to protect you."
Captain Hao, who was about to take action, hesitated upon hearing this.
Seeing his hesitation, the woman immediately said to him, "Captain Hao, don't listen to him. He's just a small businessman. What can he do to you? As long as you do as I say, I can promote you to deputy director with just one word."
Captain Hao glanced at the woman. "Can you guarantee I can be transferred to Ningcheng as a deputy director?"
"Don't worry, I keep my word. By the way, did you turn off the surveillance cameras in the interrogation room?"
"It's already closed."
"Let's do it and see if he's tough on the talk or the stun gun is tougher."
Captain Hao slowly walked up to Chen Ze, a wicked smile appearing on his lips.
