The game of power begins with the police officers at the local police station.

Even after Chen Jianhua left, Chen Shi was still worried, so he called Chen Jianyong and asked his wife to keep an eye on things at home and report any misbehavior by Chen Jianhua to him immediately.

What Chen Shi needs to do now is to keep a low profile, and his family should keep an even lower profile, so as not to cause trouble for themselves and give their political enemies a handle to use against them.

A week later, at 10 p.m., Chen Shi's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Zhang Hu calling.

Answer the phone.

Zhang Hu said excitedly, "Chief Chen, I have something important to report to you. Are you asleep?"

"Not yet, I'll come to your dorm."

Chen Shi grabbed a coat and put it on. Wang Yanhong asked, "Where are you going so late?"

"I have something to take care of, I'll be going out for a bit."

Chen Shi arrived at Zhang Hu's dormitory. Zhang Hu locked the door from the inside and whispered, "Director Chen, you asked me to keep an eye on Wang Jianming and Xu Linlin. I have made a major discovery. Xu Linlin went to the pharmacy to buy Viagra and did not go home. Instead, she went to Wang Jianming's apartment at the station."

Wang Jianming rushed over from home earlier; the two of them must have been doing *that*. Should we go and catch them in the act?

Zhang Youcai's logistics team had a spare key to his apartment; I got it from him.

As Zhang Hu spoke, he took out the key.

"What kind of business is it for us to catch someone cheating? It's like a dog trying to catch a mouse, meddling in other people's affairs."

Go and call Xu Linlin's husband and Wang Jianming's wife, and tell them they've been poisoned by carbon monoxide in the apartment and are unconscious. That's what catching them in the act is all about."

Zhang Hu acted immediately, running to inform Xu Linlin's husband and Wang Jianming's wife.

They should know about the two of them, but they're turning a blind eye. If they saw it with their own eyes, it would be completely different. It would be hard to deceive themselves.

Chen Shi waited patiently to see what would happen.

A short while later, Zhang Hu arrived in a hurry with Xu Linlin's husband and Wang Jianming's wife.

Zhang Hu took out his key and opened the door directly.

In the living room, there were two glasses of unfinished red wine and lit candles, a romantic candlelight dinner for two.

On the ground lay women's underwear and other men's and women's clothes, undoubtedly belonging to Wang Jianming and Xu Linlin.

The two were so engrossed in their conversation in the room that they didn't notice someone entering.

From inside the room came Xu Linlin's soft moans.

Xu Linlin's husband and Wang Jianming's wife rushed into the room and saw a disgusting scene.

Even though I knew they were having an affair, seeing it with my own eyes still made it hard to control my anger.

Chen Shi pretended to be passing by and asked, "What's going on here?"

Zhang Hu shouted, "I don't know!"

Chen Shi walked in, and it was a live broadcast.

Xu Linlin was on top of Wang Jianming when she suddenly saw her husband and Wang Jianming's wife rush in, and her mind went completely blank.

How careless of you to not lock the door! If you walk by the river often enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet.

Wang Jianming's wife started cursing, while Xu Linlin's husband froze, clenching his fists.

Chen Shi walked in, calmly took out his phone, and took a few photos of the two of them. These would be evidence to use against Wang Jianming later.

Wang Jianming's wife rushed forward, grabbed Xu Linlin's hair, and the two began to fight.

Xu Linlin was completely naked and was scratched and bruised all over by Wang Jianming's wife.

Wang Jianming was so frightened that he couldn't get an erection. He hurriedly got up to find clothes to wear, but there were no clothes in the room; they were all outside. He quickly pulled the blanket over himself to cover himself.

Hearing the commotion, the people living in the dormitory rushed over to see what was going on.

Chen Shi looked at Zhang Hu: "Go and guard the door, don't let anyone in."

Wang Jianming glared at Chen Shi with resentment, "This is all your doing, kid."

Chen Shi picked up the clothes from the ground, but was blocked outside the door by a large crowd.

Chen Shi took the clothes, threw them on the bed, and said with a smile, "Commander Wang, quickly put your clothes on, don't expose yourself."

Xu Linlin's husband stared intently at Wang Jianming. "Is he even a man? Go up and kill him!"

Chen Shi, always eager for drama, really wanted to hand a knife to Xu Linlin's husband.

Brother, you can tolerate this? I respect you as a coward. You'll never be able to hold your head up again, being pointed at and talked about by others. You'll never have a moment's peace.

Wang Jianming quickly put on his clothes and ran to separate his wife and Xu Linlin. Xu Linlin's face was covered in scratches, and she stood naked in front of Chen Shi.

She hurriedly ran to bed and put on her clothes, without even glancing at her husband.

Wang Jianming's wife plopped down on the ground and shouted, "You bastard, you've been seeing other women behind my back! I'm going to the police station to find your superiors and demand an explanation!"

Wang Jianming, his forehead covered in sweat, whispered, "Please, stop this nonsense. With so many people around, if word gets out, I'll lose my position as director. What good will that do you?"

Let's talk about it when we get back, okay?

"I don't care whether you become the director or not, it's none of my business."

Wang Jianming panicked; if he continued to cause trouble, his career would be over.

"I'll kneel down and beg you, okay? Stop messing around, let's go back and talk."

His wife yelled, "Kneel down!"

Wang Jianming immediately knelt down, clasped his hands in a gesture of respect, and said, "My dear aunt, please stop this nonsense."

His wife's anger subsided a little.

Xu Linlin put on her clothes, glanced at Wang Jianming, and thought, "He's a real bastard, he'll do anything for his career."

Xu Linlin's husband's face turned ashen. He glared at Xu Linlin, his lips trembling, "Xu Linlin, you'd better leave with nothing. We're getting a divorce."

Xu Linlin didn't take her husband seriously and snorted coldly: "I don't care about your family's little bit of property. Whoever doesn't divorce me is a coward."

Xu Linlin walked out as if nothing had happened.

Chen Shi, of course, wouldn't miss such a wonderful scene and filmed it all.

Xu Linlin's husband clenched his fists, lowered his head, and followed her out, as if he were the one who had made a mistake.

Wang Jianming's wife shouted, "Slap yourself in the face! Don't stop until I'm satisfied!"

"That's enough, stop fooling around."

"Who's causing trouble? You did something shameless and you still say I'm causing trouble? You won't slap me, huh? I'll slap you for you."

Several slaps landed on Wang Jianming's face, causing both cheeks to swell.

Wang Jianming stood up, head bowed, and quickly walked out.

His wife followed him, cursing and swearing.

What a show! It was so exciting!

Chen Shi gave Zhang Hu an approving look, saying, "You did a good job, kid."

Upon reaching the entrance, he called out to the onlookers, "Disperse, everyone. This is a family matter between Director Wang and Team Leader Xu; they will handle it themselves."

Back home, after finishing her lesson plan and taking a shower, Wang Yanhong asked, "Who's making that noise outside?"

"Your cousin and Director Wang were caught driving on the highway by their spouses. It was broadcast live, quite a spectacle."

If you see it, you'll never forget it.

"My cousin and Director Wang are really having an affair."

"The two were playing cards in bed. How could that be fake? Their colleagues living in the dormitory all came to watch. If I hadn't asked Zhang Hu to block the door, they would have been seen naked."

"How embarrassing!" Wang Yanhong had been skeptical before, but she didn't expect it to be true. How could her cousin possibly stay in the police station after doing something like this?

Chen Shi's lips curled up. The photos and videos in his hand would be the evidence to hold Wang Jianming accountable. Suddenly, he felt that he might be a little wicked and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Wang Yanhong looked at Chen Shi: "What are you laughing at?"

"I suddenly remembered a joke, and I found it really funny."

Wang Yanhong walked back to her room with a worried expression.
