Special forces soldier demobilization: Starting from the county government compound, a meteoric rise

Liu Ming swept into the bathroom like a gust of wind and locked the door behind her.

He leaned against the cold marble sink, panting heavily, a fine layer of cold sweat beading on his forehead. What he had just experienced was even more dangerous than defusing mines in Death Valley.

Three women make a drama. These three exceptional women, with their powerful backgrounds and distinct personalities, coming together is like a nuclear explosion capable of destroying the entire capital!

"What kind of mess is this?" Liu Ming turned on the tap, scooped up a handful of cold water and splashed it hard on her face, trying to calm her heart, which was about to jump out of her throat.

He had even mentally rehearsed countless tragic endings that would follow the outbreak of a chaotic battle.

Xi Wanqing would use her cold, institutional jargon to launch a comprehensive attack on him, Lin Xiaoxiao would take direct action and dismantle his office with her special forces combat skills, while Nangong Yao would fan the flames from the sidelines and make the situation even more chaotic with her sharp tongue.

"Phew..." Liu Ming let out a long breath and pulled out a tissue to wipe her face.

"What is meant to be will be, and what is meant to be will be."

He gritted his teeth, like a condemned prisoner about to be executed, opened the bathroom door, and walked out with a stiff upper lip.

He was prepared for the storm.

However, when he returned to the banquet hall and his gaze swept across the crowd to the corner he had just been looking at, he was completely stunned.

The anticipated tension did not materialize; there was no argument, no physical altercation, and none of the dramatic scenes that would have made those around them laugh.

There, three women, Nangong Yao, Xi Wanqing, and Lin Xiaoxiao, were sitting around an exquisite small round table.

Nangong Yao swirled the red wine in her glass, a bright smile on her face that she only wore when signing big deals.

Although Xi Wanqing remained aloof, a slight smile played on her lips as she held a glass of champagne, her eyes revealing a rare hint of relaxation.

Even Lin Xiaoxiao, who is usually as fiery as a firecracker, sat there obediently, holding a piece of mousse cake in her hands, eating while listening to Nangong Yao talk with great interest, and occasionally letting out a crisp laugh.

What the hell is going on? Is this a hallucination?

Liu Ming rubbed her eyes hard, making sure she wasn't seeing things.

Instead of fighting, the three women sat together drinking and chatting like best friends who had known each other for years. The atmosphere was so harmonious that it made him feel a little... creepy.

He cautiously moved closer.

"Um... what are you guys talking about? You seem so happy?" Liu Ming asked tentatively, her voice tinged with guilt.

The three women simultaneously stopped talking and turned to look at him. Their three beautiful eyes, each carrying a distinctly different scrutinizing gaze, were like three X-rays, scanning him from head to toe.

"We were talking about..." Nangong Yao spoke first, her tone tinged with a hint of mockery, "A certain great hero, who commands respect and is incredibly powerful outside. But when he encounters even the slightest trouble, all he knows is to resort to such a despicable trick as 'making a scene to pee'."

"Exactly! Master, you're such a coward!" Lin Xiaoxiao swallowed the cake in her mouth and echoed, her big eyes full of contempt.

Xi Wanqing didn't say anything, but simply picked up her glass and took a small sip of champagne. Her gaze, however, was more lethal than any words could convey.

Liu Ming awkwardly touched her nose and chuckled dryly, "I... I really had to pee. Everyone has to go, who can hold it in?"

"Alright, stop pretending." Nangong Yao put down her wine glass, stood up, walked over to Liu Ming, and straightened his slightly disheveled collar. Her movements were extremely natural, just like a wife taking care of her husband.

"We have just reached a consensus."

"A consensus?" Liu Ming's heart skipped a beat.

"Yes." Xi Wanqing also stood up, walked to Liu Ming's side, and said in a calm tone as if she were reading out meeting minutes, "From today onwards, we will establish a 'united front' in the capital."

"I'm in charge of intelligence and policy support within the system, Yao Yao is in charge of business operations and financial security, and Xiao Xiao is in charge of security and handling emergencies."

Xi Wanqing looked at Liu Ming, her eyes flashing with an undeniable determination, "The three of us are your strongest support in the capital. Anyone who dares to trip you up behind your back will not be let off lightly."

Looking at the three women and listening to their outrageous and defiant words, Liu Ming suddenly realized that his greatest fortune in life might not have been obtaining high office or great wealth, nor possessing any formidable power.

Instead, I met them.

"You..." Liu Ming's voice was a little hoarse, as if something was blocking her throat.

"Touched?" Nangong Yao raised an eyebrow, leaned close to his ear, and whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear, "If you're touched, don't go back to your courtyard house tonight. Come to my place; I've left the door open for you."

Liu Ming's heart skipped a beat. He was about to speak when he caught a glimpse of a commotion at the entrance of the banquet hall out of the corner of his eye.

"Get out of the way! All of you, get out of the way!"

A man in a black trench coat, looking flustered, pushed through the crowd and, ignoring the security guards' attempts to stop him, desperately rushed towards the gate.

The man was wearing a hat and a mask, completely obscuring his face. But Liu Ming still recognized him at a glance!

He was a deputy director of the High-Tech Department of the National Development and Reform Commission, and one of the comprador groups that had been purged earlier who had managed to escape the net!

According to the intelligence just sent by Ghost Hand, this person has access to an extremely crucial list of top-secret transactions involving several higher-level moles!

"Trying to run away?"

The warmth in Liu Ming's eyes vanished instantly, replaced by the extreme coldness of a "Shura".

He didn't explain a single word to the three women. He didn't even go through the main gate.

Liu Ming suddenly took a running start, braced himself with one hand on the long table in front of him that was covered with champagne towers, and leaped into the air from the table like a black cheetah!

"Crash!" The champagne tower collapsed with a loud crash, the sound of shattering glass echoing throughout the banquet hall!

Amid gasps from the guests, Liu Ming landed, rolled to dissipate the impact, and instantly closed the distance with the fleeing man.

"stop!"

The deputy director, hearing the voice behind him, was terrified. He knew he was doomed if caught, so he pulled a pistol from his pocket, turned around, and was about to fire!

But to try and use a gun in front of Liu Ming? That's like showing off your skills before an expert.

The moment the other party raised their gun, Liu Ming had already moved in close!

He didn't try to dodge the gun at all. Instead, his left hand shot out like lightning, precisely grabbing the other man's wrist holding the gun and twisting it upwards!

"Crack!" A crisp sound of bone breaking rang out. The deputy director screamed in pain as his pistol flew from his hand.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Ming clenched his right fist, exerted force from his waist, and slammed it hard into the opponent's abdomen with a terrifying, devastating power!

"Bang!"

Liu Ming didn't hold back with this punch. The deputy director was like a boiled shrimp, his feet leaving the ground as he flew backward three or four meters, crashing heavily into the marble pillar of the banquet hall, before sliding to the ground like a lump of mud.

He coughed up mouthfuls of blood and immediately lost consciousness.

The entire place fell silent. Everyone was stunned by the sudden violence. They stared at the man standing at the door, radiating a chilling aura.

Now I understand why this young man was able to stir up such a huge storm in the capital.

Liu Ming stepped forward and took a black USB drive from the unconscious deputy director's arms.

He turned his head and looked at the silent guests in the banquet hall, as well as the three women who were looking at him with an extremely complex and extremely proud gaze.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, tossed the USB drive in his hand, and a helpless, bitter smile appeared on his lips.

"Um..." "I'm doing this to catch bad guys." "It's definitely not an excuse to pee."
