It was getting dark.
Wang Xiaohai drove the car back to Qingliu University.
"Haven't Fang Fang and Qin Jie returned yet?" Wang Xiaohai asked Cheng Yan, "Call them and ask."
Cheng Yan immediately called both of them, but the reply came: Sorry, the number you dialed is turned off.
"Nothing will happen, right?" Yunmei worried.
"It should be fine." Wang Xiaohai comforted him, "Fang Fang is a very clever magician. If he encounters danger, he will be the first to turn around and run away. He will never take risks."
The three of them found a restaurant on campus to have dinner.
"Is it tiring to be a mayoral candidate?" Cheng Yan asked after finishing his meal.
"It's much more tiring than practicing martial arts," Wang Xiaohai said. "It mostly uses your brain. It's not like fighting an enemy where you just charge in with brute force and don't have to think too much!"
"So, both civil and military are equally important. No one can say one has it easier," Yun Mei concluded. "It's just that martial artists are more likely to lose their lives, while civil artists are more likely to lose their hearts."
"Life isn't easy," Cheng Yan said. "Living like me is the most comfortable. The Alliance has geniuses like Yun Mei governing the country and experts like Wang Xiaohai guarding the country. The rest of us can just sleep peacefully!"
"Yunmei is more suitable to be a mayoral candidate than me. What a pity, she is very talented." Wang Xiaohai picked up a piece of cooked beef with chopsticks.
"She's not popular," Cheng Yan said. "If she doesn't bribe people, she can't even get a hundred signatures. She needs to bury her head in her books and study. She doesn't care about other types."
"My mother has urged me to study since I was young. She hopes that my grades can surpass those of my royal brothers from Yueying Kingdom." Yunmei said.
"Did you surpass your royal brothers in the end?" Cheng Yan asked.
"There's no need to surpass them, because none of my brothers are interested in studying, and their levels are about the same as yours." Yun Mei said, "Don't reveal my identity!"
"No, you've been reminding me all day!" Cheng Yan said, "I wouldn't have been so curious to ask Fang Fang about your identity. It's a bit uncomfortable to have a secret in my heart that I can't tell you."
"Curiosity kills the cat, I'm talking about you." Wang Xiaohai drank the egg and seaweed soup in the bowl in one gulp.
Just then, his cell phone rang.
Wang Xiaohai picked up his brick-sized phone and saw Fang Fang’s profile picture, so he chose to answer the call.
"Hello, is this Brother Xiaohai?" Fang Fang's voice was obviously a little excited.
Wang Xiaohai: "It's me, what's the matter?"
Fang Fang: "I used Peeping Magic to investigate Yu Tu's residence, and indeed, I made a significant discovery!"
Wang Xiaohai: "Why do you always like to learn these obscene magics? Tell me the reason."
Fang Fang: "That's not the point. Are you listening carefully? My phone bill is low."
Wang Xiaohai: "Okay, tell me, what secret did you discover?"
Fang Fang: "This old guy Yu Tu is actually colluding with the Bullet Group."
Wang Xiaohai: "Everyone knows this. He plans to lure Zidan to invest in Qingliu City."
Fang Fang: "That's not what I'm talking about. He accepted bribes from the Bullet Group."
Wang Xiaohai: "What! Is there any evidence?"
Fang Fang: "The evidence is there. It's in his safe."
Wang Xiaohai: "Can you see it inside the safe?"
Fang Fang: "My Peeping Magic has the ability to see through things up close."
Wang Xiaohai: "You're amazing! You're worthy of being called a little gangster. You even managed to develop this kind of magic! Do you often use this magic to go to the girls' dormitory?"
Fang Fang: "Please, I tried, but all I saw were skeletons. It's no use."
Wang Xiaohai immediately heard the sounds of punches and kicks coming from the other side, as well as Qin Jie's curses: "If you dare to use this kind of evil magic on me, I will kill you!"
Then Wang Xiaohai heard Fang Fang explain loudly: "Don't worry, you are my sister-in-law, I will never use it on you!"
Then Wang Xiaohai heard Qin Jie calling someone her sister-in-law, and heard a few dog barking.
Wang Xiaohai: "Fang Fang, can you still hear me?"
Fang Fang's voice came from the other end of the phone: "The hounds at Yu Tu Villa have spotted us. I'm hanging up now. Don't worry, I'll definitely get the documents for you."
Then there was the sound of the phone being hung up.
"There's more news that slanders you!" Yunmei said to Fang Fang, handing him the phone to look at.
Wang Xiaohai handed over the phone and saw that it was Qingliu Online Times again. The headline was even more explosive than the last time - Candidate No. 5 Wang Xiaohai abandoned his wife and son for fifteen years. His wife cried all day long and his son picked up garbage to make a living.
The report outlines the following: Wang Xiaohai and his wife, Jenny (a pseudonym), met and fell in love in the countryside fifteen years ago. They had a son. A few years later, Wang Xiaohai went to the big city of Qingliu to work, where he met a wealthy woman. He married into the family and cut off all contact with his wife, who lived in the countryside, and stopped sending money home. Without a husband, his wife and children also lost their source of income, leading to an extremely difficult life. The following excerpts describe the hardships of their life, including selling blood and kidneys and scavenging garbage! The conclusion is that Wang Xiaohai is a complete scumbag!
Wang Xiaohai wanted to laugh after reading this: "This editor is quite talented. He wrote such a ridiculous story to deceive people, but he forgot one thing. Fifteen years ago, Wang Xiaohai was only three years old. How could he get married?"
I guess the editor received a news assignment to discredit him. When he heard that it was a mayoral candidate, he thought he must be in his thirties or forties, so he didn't do any research and just made up a story.
What Wang Xiaohai could think of, others could think of as well, so a comment appeared under the news:
Reader: Times editor, are you stupid? Fifteen years ago, Wang Xiaohai was only three years old. How could he have gotten married?
The Times editor panicked, realizing he'd made an oversight! How could he cover up his lie? Then, with a sudden inspiration, he responded to the comment: "Mayoral candidate No. 5 has been exceptionally gifted since childhood, growing up incredibly fast, looking like an adult by the age of three. It's no surprise he'd tricked a woman into marriage!"
