Please, mature women, have some self-respect. I just want a raise and a promotion.

Chapter 204 Opening the Door Face to Face

Qiu Xiuqin bit her lip, her face full of excitement.

She knew that Lin Zheng was retaliating.

They were retaliating against Yang Wanshan for not taking action, for Yang Wanshan for backing down, and for Yang Wanshan for leaving them to shoulder the burden alone.

But her hands involuntarily wrapped around Lin Zheng's neck, thoroughly enjoying the feeling.

"hurry up......"

These words were a signal that quickly entangled the two of them.

Qiu Xiuqin's voice went from suppressed to unrestrained, and from unrestrained to frenzied.

She stopped holding back and started shouting and yelling whenever she wanted.

Anyway, Yang Wanshan is downstairs, and the soundproofing is good, so he can't hear it.

The two struggled for nearly an hour before collapsing on the carpet, panting heavily.

Qiu Xiuqin leaned against Lin Zheng's chest: "Lin Zheng, do you really hate Lao Yang?"

"I don't hate."

"Then why are you like this?"

"I just want him to know that I can still make him wear a green hat right under his nose."

Qiu Xiuqin sighed and remained silent.

She knew that Lin Zheng was venting his anger.

To vent one's dissatisfaction, grievances, and anger.

"Lin Zheng, don't worry, I will help you."

"How will you help me?"

"If Old Yang won't make a move, I will."

Lin Zheng was taken aback: "You?"

Yes, it's me.

"Don't forget, I haven't been in Dianhai Town for nothing all these years."

Lin Zheng looked at Qiu Xiuqin and felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

"Sister Xiuqin, thank you."

"Don't thank me. Thank me properly after things are done."

Qiu Xiuqin kissed him, then sat up and got dressed.

"It's getting late, you should go now. Old Yang should be up soon."

Lin Zheng nodded, sat up, and put on his clothes.

The two walked to the door, and Qiu Xiuqin opened it for him.

"Be careful on the road."

"Um."

Lin Zheng walked out of the room and had just reached the top of the stairs when he heard footsteps coming from downstairs.

Yang Wanshan has arrived.

Lin Zheng's heart skipped a beat, and he turned and hid in the corner of the corridor.

Yang Wanshan went upstairs and pushed open the door to the master bedroom.

"Xiuqin, you're still awake?"

"I was asleep, you woke me up."

"Old Zhou called and said he was investigating Qiu Ruiming's case, and told me to be prepared."

"What preparations?"

"Ready to take over."

Yang Wanshan's voice carried a hint of excitement.

"It seems Qiu Ruiming is doomed this time."

After discussing Qiu Ruiming's matter, Yang Wanshan suddenly had a whim and wanted to have sex with Qiu Xiuqin.

But Qiu Xiuqin had no interest in spending those two or three minutes with Yang Wanshan and made up an excuse to get rid of him.

Lin Zheng hid in the corner of the corridor, holding his breath and not daring to make a sound.

Yang Wanshan didn't look in his direction, but went straight to the study and closed the door.

Lin Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and was about to slip downstairs when the door to the master bedroom opened again.

Qiu Xiuqin poked her head out and waved to him.

"come over."

Lin Zheng was taken aback: "Again?"

"No, I have something to tell you."

Lin Zheng hesitated for a moment, then tiptoed over.

Qiu Xiuqin pulled him into the bedroom, closed the door, and pushed him next to the wardrobe.

"Don't move, I'll talk to him for a bit."

"What are you going to do?"

"Didn't you want some excitement? What are you standing there for?"

Lin Zheng took a deep breath and immediately pressed himself against it.

Qiu Xiuqin bit her lip, trying her best to make herself look normal.

She savored the moment, then opened the door and called out towards the study.

"Old Yang, come here for a second."

Lin Zheng's heart jumped into his throat when he heard this.

"Lin Zheng, you can continue."

Qiu Xiuqin said through gritted teeth.

Lin Zheng was going all out.

Footsteps soon came from the other side, and Yang Wanshan walked out of the study and into the bedroom.

"What's wrong?"

"I have something I want to tell you."

Qiu Xiuqin held onto the door of the room.

Her angle perfectly shielded Lin Zheng from view.

Lin Zheng clung tightly to Qiu Xiuqin.

I come here every now and then.

His heart was pounding in his chest.

Yang Wanshan stood at the door, looking at Qiu Xiuqin.

"What is it? Tell me."

"What are your plans regarding Ma Hongshan's matter?"

Yang Wanshan frowned: "Why are you suddenly asking this?"

"I overheard you talking to Lin Zheng on the phone just now. He said he was going to take action against Ma Hongshan, and you told me to wait a little longer."

"Don't worry about this."

"I don't care? Old Yang, you've been the mayor of Dianhai Town for so many years, suppressed by Qiu Ruiming for so long. You finally have a chance to turn things around, but you're cowering and shirking your responsibilities."

"Do you even know what the other cadres think of you?"

Yang Wanshan's face darkened: "What do you think?"

"Other cadres will definitely say behind your back that you're a coward."

Yang Wanshan's face was ashen, and his lips trembled as he was unable to speak.

Qiu Xiuqin looked at him and continued, "Old Yang, I'm not trying to force you, I just want to tell you that opportunities don't wait for anyone."

"The district's investigation of Qiu Ruiming this time is the best opportunity to bring him down."

"If you miss this opportunity, you'll never have another chance."

"Ma Hongshan is Qiu Ruiming's staunch supporter. Taking him down is like cutting off one of Qiu Ruiming's arms."

"What are you waiting for?"

Yang Wanshan remained silent for a long time, then lit a cigarette and took a few deep drags.

"You're right, we can't wait any longer."

"Tomorrow, I will inform Lin Zheng to discuss the matter of moving Ma Hongshan."

Qiu Xiuqin breathed a sigh of relief: "That's right."

"Is there anything else?" Yang Wanshan asked.

"That's all, I just suddenly wanted to chat with you."

As Qiu Xiuqin spoke, she gestured for them to continue.

Seeing Qiu Xiuqin's actions, Lin Zheng became bolder.

He held Qiu Xiuqin down.

It moved forward a bit.

This way you can see it more clearly.

Then he confronted them.

Qiu Xiuqin froze.

He let out a shout.

"What's wrong with you?"

Yang Wanshan, standing outside the door, had no idea.

There were other people behind Qiu Xiuqin.

He looked concerned when he heard Qiu Xiuqin suddenly shout.

"N-nothing..."

Qiu Xiuqin's voice trembled, and her face flushed.

Lin Zheng's sudden action.

She almost lost her balance.

Why is your face so red?

"Do you have a cold?"

As Yang Wanshan spoke, he reached out to touch Qiu Xiuqin's forehead.

"No... um..."

"I don't have a cold, I'm fine."

Qiu Xiuqin quickly stopped Yang Wanshan.

Her angle was just right to block Lin Zheng's view; if Yang Wanshan had taken a few more steps forward, he would have been able to see the shadow on the ground.

Lin Zheng, standing behind him, did not stop.

Qiu Xiuqin's voice became intermittent and abnormal.

Hearing the strange sound, Yang Wanshan frowned, a little angry.

"Xiuqin, what's wrong with you?"

"Did I stuff something in there?"

The thought of Qiu Xiuqin using those things to prevent him from getting anything done made Yang Wanshan inexplicably angry.

Qiu Xiuqin gritted her teeth.

She forcefully suppressed that intense feeling.

"Old Yang, what are you thinking?"

"I'm just feeling a little unwell, don't overthink it."

Yang Wanshan looked at Qiu Xiuqin's face.

"You don't feel well, but your complexion clearly indicates that you feel comfortable."
