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

Huang Kun and Qin Xiaoming stepped off the stage. Huang Kun, with a big smile, said, "Secretary Liu, what song would you like to sing? I'll pick one for you."

Fang Min spoke first: "Secretary Liu, let's sing 'The Love of the Swimmer' together."

Fang Min learned from Huang Kun that Liu Youguang always sang "The Love of the Swallow" and probably wouldn't refuse her.

Huang Kun said with a smile, "I'll request 'The Love of the Swallow' for you."

Fang Min took the microphone and handed it to Liu Youguang. Liu Youguang took the microphone, smiled, and said, "Don't sit down, all of you get up and dance."

Xu Min had just danced with Zhang Xiangdong, then walked over to Qin Xiaoming and invited him to dance.

Chen Shi glanced at Huang Xin, and seeing that she was sitting still, he stood up, sat down next to Zhang Xiangdong, and chatted with Zhang Xiangdong.

Huang Xin is the kind of woman who is aloof and doesn't like to be indulged. The more you ignore her, the more interested she will become in you.

If you act like a simp, she'll become indifferent to you.

Huang Xin glanced at Chen Shi and was somewhat disappointed to see that he hadn't invited her to dance.

Having physical contact with Chen Shi gave me an indescribable feeling, a ticklish sensation that lingered in my mind.

She doesn't have this feeling with any man.

Huang Kun walked up to Huang Xin, extended his hand, and said with a smile, "Minister Huang, don't sit down, come up and dance."

Huang Xin didn't want to dance with a greasy middle-aged man like Huang Kun. Liu Youguang had spoken up earlier, inviting people to dance, and Chen Shi hadn't taken the initiative to invite her. How could she lower herself to invite him?

She wanted to deliberately annoy Chen Shi, implying that even if he didn't invite her, plenty of others would.

He reached out and placed his hand on Huang Kun's, and the two walked onto the stage and began to dance.

Liu Youguang sang two songs with Fang Min, and then sang two more solo songs. Fang Min also sang one song.

Fang Min's voice was very pleasant; she clearly had a professional voice. Chen Shi said to Zhang Xiangdong, "County Chief Zhang, do you know the beautiful woman singing with Secretary Liu?"

Zhang Xiangdong glanced at Chen Shi: "You have a girlfriend, don't do anything inappropriate."

Chen Shi smiled and said, "County Chief Zhang, where are you thinking? I've never seen this beautiful woman before. She seems to be quite familiar with Secretary Liu."

"Her name is Fang Min. She is the deputy mayor of Heyuan Town. She is not only familiar with Secretary Liu, but also with me."

Chen Shi thought to himself, "Why didn't she invite you to dance? It seems we're not very familiar with each other."

A smile appeared on his face: "Fang Zhen sings very well, he has a great voice."

"Fang Zhen graduated from a music academy and previously worked as a music teacher at a primary school in Heyuan Town. When Secretary Liu went to Heyuan Town for inspection, he discovered Fang Zhen's talent from among the vast sea of ​​people."

Chen Shi nodded. No wonder he was so familiar with Secretary Liu; he was a talent that Secretary Liu had discovered.

Chen Shi looked at Fang Min singing on the stage. He hadn't looked at her closely before, but now he realized that this woman had a very sexy figure, comparable to Huang Xin.

Zhang Xiangdong whispered, "You better not get any funny ideas. I heard Fang Min is pulling strings to get transferred to the county party committee office as deputy director."

Chen Shi knew that Zhang Xiangdong was reminding him not to let things escalate, and that it was for his own good.

Li Yuezhong, deputy director of the county party committee office, was transferred to Fushan Town as mayor. The county party committee office is still short of a deputy director. Under normal circumstances, Liu Feng has a high chance. He is Liu Youguang's secretary. The secretaries of previous county party secretaries are usually promoted to deputy director of the county party committee office.

Liu Feng has only been in the county party committee office for a short time and lacks sufficient qualifications. He will not be promoted to deputy director of the county party committee office for at least another six months.

There are always exceptions. Now, a Cheng Yaojin has appeared out of nowhere, intercepting the position halfway. By the time Liu Feng has enough seniority, the leadership position will be gone.

It's unusual that Fang Min came in with Huang Kun, Qin Xiaoming, and Huang Xin.

Qin Xiaoming is the head of the Organization Department. All cadre promotions must go through him. Huang Kun is Liu Youguang's chief steward and has a lot of say in Liu Youguang's eyes.

Chen Shi observed carefully and saw that Liu Youguang was in a good mood, which meant that he was very satisfied with Fang Min.

It seems Fang Min has a sure thing about getting the important position of deputy director of the county party committee office. In her heart, she silently mourned for Liu Feng for a minute.

But he smiled and said, "County Chief Zhang, I'm very loyal."

Zhang Xiangdong's voice was very soft, and only Chen Shi could hear it: "Leading cadres, even if they are not dedicated, must show that they are dedicated. They must have a bottom line on what they can and cannot do."

"If you walk by the river often enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet. You should have a sense of awe towards power."

Chen Shi nodded.

At this moment, Liu Youguang finished singing and saw Zhang Xiangdong and Chen Shi sitting below chatting. He called out, "Give Xiangdong and Chen Shi two songs. Everyone else is either singing or dancing. It won't do for them to be the audience."

Fang Min smiled and said, "County Chief Zhang, I'll request two songs for you."

Liu Youguang handed the microphone to Zhang Xiangdong, who took it with a smile and went over to request a song.

Chen Shi picked up his beer glass: "Secretary Liu, your singing is so beautiful. I'm tone-deaf, so I won't go up and embarrass myself. But I'm good at dancing, so I'll go up and be a backup dancer for County Chief Zhang."

"Dancing and singing are both fine, just don't sit down."

Qin Xiaoming and Xu Mei came downstairs. Qin Xiaoming raised his glass to toast Liu Youguang, and the two started chatting.

Xu Mei walked to Chen Shi's side: "Director Chen, you've rested for so long, it's time to dance."

Chen Shi extended his hand, and Xu Mei placed her hand on his. The two then went up to dance.

Huang Kun couldn't dance, and his steps were stiff. He stepped on Huang Xin's feet a few times. Huang Xin was tired and said softly, "Director Huang, I'm a little tired. I'd like to go and rest for a bit."

Huang Kun smiled and said, "Okay."

As the two stepped off the stage, Huang Kun had just sat down when Fang Min approached him and said, "Director Huang, dance with me."

Despite being very tired, Huang Kun did not refuse the invitation from the beautiful woman. He stood up, took Fang Min's hand, and went up to the stage to dance.

As Huang Xin watched Chen Shi dancing on the stage, her mind wandered. After meeting Chen Shi once before, she had a wet dream in which she had a passionate encounter with him, and the bed collapsed.

She had never had such a dream before, and when she thought about the dream she had last time, she suddenly blushed.

On stage, Chen Shi danced gracefully. He held Xu Mei's waist, smelling her perfume, without having any romantic thoughts.

Xu Mei smiled and said, "Director Chen, you danced wonderfully."

"When I was in college, I was the lead dancer in the dance club. After graduation, I didn't dance much, so I've become a bit rusty."

Xu Mei chuckled and said, "Director Chen, you should come to the guesthouse more often and dance with the guests."

Chen Shi replied dismissively, "I'll come whenever I have time."

Chen Shi disliked the scent of perfume on Xu Mei and said softly, "Director Xu, you seem a little tired. Take a break before you jump again."

The two walked off the stage, and Huang Kun and Fang Min also came down. Just then, Zhang Xiangdong finished singing his two songs.

Huang Kun looked at Huang Xin: "Minister Huang, go up and sing two songs."

Huang Xin quickly said, "I'm tone-deaf and don't sing well, so I'll just be your backup dancer."

Xu Mei said, "I'll sing two songs."

Fang Min walked up to Zhang Xiangdong and asked, "County Magistrate Zhang, would you like to dance with me?"

Zhang Xiangdong smiled and said, "How could I refuse an invitation from such a beautiful lady?"

Zhang Xiangdong extended his hand, and Fang Min placed her hand on his as they walked onto the stage.

After ignoring Huang Xin for a while, Chen Shi felt it was about time, so he walked over and extended his hand: "Minister Huang, don't sit, come up and dance."

Huang Xin put her hand on Chen Shi's hand, and the two walked onto the stage.
