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

Upon hearing this, Chen Lianghai was first stunned, then his facial features contorted in shock.

"Team Leader Lin, are you sure the information you heard is reliable?"

After holding it in for several minutes, Chen Lianghai finally managed to squeeze out these words through gritted teeth.

"Director Chen, I heard this from someone else, and I can't guarantee it's reliable."

"However, given how many incredible stories people are telling, I think there's some truth to it."

"Furthermore, it's easy to figure this out; just take some time to get a paternity test done."

Hearing this, Chen Lianghai also felt that it made sense.

Whether it's your child or not, a paternity test will tell you everything.

Filled with doubts, Chen Lianghai lost his appetite for drinking and made an excuse to leave the private room.

Chen Lianghai had just left the private room when Yang Dong called.

At this moment, he was in a private room with Tan Huafeng, and Zhang Hong and Zhou Dezhu were also present.

The scheme orchestrated by Yang Dong was actually devised by Tan Huafeng.

According to Tan Huafeng's calculations, as long as Chen Lianghai and Lin Zheng really start fighting, he can secretly fan the flames. Even if Chen Lianghai can't deal with Lin Zheng, he won't suffer any losses.

If Chen Lianghai can deal with Lin Zheng, that would be even better, then he can free up his hands to deal with Lin Lanxin.

He was confident that he could easily get rid of Lin Lanxin, a woman who had only gained status through connections.

Tan Huafeng's plan was extremely insidious. Once the plan succeeded, he could not only reap the benefits but also drive Lin Zheng away.

But to his utter surprise, Chen Lianghai was so clever that he didn't rush to settle scores with Lin Zheng, but instead reached an agreement with Lin Zheng and even formed a cooperative partnership.

Lin Zheng sneered as he saw Yang Dong's call, but he pretended not to know anything and said into the phone, "Yang Dong, today is your last day to deal with Chen Lianghai."

Hearing Lin Zheng's words, Tan Huafeng and the other two were stunned.

Lin Zheng was still threatening Yang Dong, which meant that Chen Lianghai had not yet turned against him.

Yang Dong held his phone for a long time without saying a word, his eyes fixed on Tan Huafeng, waiting for his instructions.

Tan Huafeng dipped his hand in alcohol and quickly wrote a few words on the table.

Upon seeing the words written by Tan Huafeng, Yang Dong immediately changed his tune.

"Team Leader Lin, I've already fallen out with Chen Lianghai and even used his weaknesses to threaten him, but he's having trouble accepting it right now and there's nothing I can do."

"Do you have time now? Let's come out and talk, and see how we can get Chen Lianghai to compromise."

Hearing this, Lin Zheng sneered, thinking that he was trying to trick him by repeating the same old tricks.

Since you want to play, then don't blame me for being impolite.

Thinking of this, Lin Zheng nodded: "Okay, you can book a private room, you'll be there in a bit."

"Then the Sheraton Hotel, room 808, I look forward to your visit."

After hanging up the phone, Yang Dong looked at Tan Huafeng.

"Secretary Tan, Lin Zheng has agreed. What's the next step?"

Tan Huafeng handed Yang Dong a cigarette and then said, "Of course, we'll set him up at the dinner party."

"Find women for him to play with, and then film them?" Yang Dong said, thinking himself clever.

"Finding a woman? That kid's already exhausted all those dirty tricks."

"We need to come up with some new tricks, otherwise we won't be able to get rid of that kid at all."

Zhou Dezhu chimed in, "Secretary Tan, do you have any new ideas?"

Hearing Zhou Dezhu's question, Tan Huafeng was furious. He thought to himself, how could his subordinates be so stupid? They didn't even have a basic brain. If they had a third of Lin Zheng's intelligence, he wouldn't have to worry about this.

Zhou Dezhu, who had been given the cold shoulder, didn't dare to say a word, worried that Tan Huafeng would make him sell his ass again.

Although Zhang Hong was somewhat intelligent, he wasn't much better. To avoid being scolded, he simply buried his head in his pocket and acted like a coward.

Seeing Zhang Hong's pathetic state, Tan Huafeng was so angry he almost had a heart attack.

If it weren't for the fact that the Yangxi Village Committee needed the two of them to cooperate, he would have liked to slap them both to the sky.

He turned his gaze to Yang Dong, then took out a document and handed it to Yang Dong.

"These are shares of the Sheraton Hotel. Use these to make a deal with him. Tell him that you still need some time regarding Chen Lianghai's matter, and these shares will serve as compensation."

Upon hearing this, Yang Dong immediately understood what Tan Huafeng wanted to do. However, he did not expect Tan Huafeng to play such a big game, using his own hotel shares as bait in order to frame Lin Zheng.

Yang Dong took the documents from Tan Huafeng and said, "Secretary Tan, are you trying to get me to use my shares to trap Lin Zheng, and then report him, right?"

Tan Huafeng nodded, thinking that he had finally met someone with a brain, and then said, "Since you didn't do what Lin Zheng asked, offering shares as compensation is reasonable and compliant, and it will greatly reduce his suspicion."

"As a businessman entering politics, I don't believe Lin Zheng wouldn't be greedy for this kind of money that's been handed to him for free. As long as he dares to reach out, I can get him arrested."

"He likes to report people to the disciplinary committee, doesn't he? This time the boomerang has hit him. Let's see what he can do about it."

After hearing Tan Huafeng's arrangements, the three of them clapped and flattered him.

"Secretary Tan's actions are truly exceptional; Lin Zheng is bound to get caught up in this high-level situation."

"This time, we not only need to send Lin Zheng to jail, but we also need to settle that messy debt on his head."

Tan Huafeng was very pleased with Zhou Dezhu and the other man's flattery, nodded, and turned his gaze to Yang Dong.

"There's no time to lose, go and make the arrangements immediately."

"Remember to act like you're very worried about things being exposed, otherwise you'll have to comply with all of Lin Zheng's demands."

"The Sheraton shares must be transferred to Lin Zheng, even if it means forcing them into his hands."

"As long as you get this done, I'll take care of your relationship with Chen Lianghai's wife and then transfer you to the Land and Resources Bureau."

Upon hearing this, Yang Dong's eyes lit up immediately, and he patted his chest to guarantee that he would complete the task.

After ensuring the mission was completed, Yang Dong immediately went to the Sheraton Hotel.

To put Lin Zheng at ease, he went to great lengths, ordering a table full of sumptuous seafood.

Eighteen dishes and two soups cost him 30,000 yuan, but when he thought about being able to transfer to the Land and Resources Bureau, a lucrative department, he suddenly felt that 30,000 yuan was nothing at all.

He can earn back ten times his initial investment from any project he undertakes.

In addition to the abundant seafood, he also spent 20,000 yuan on Wuliangye liquor.

We've already spent a fortune on food, so we can't skimp on drinks either.

Without alcohol, how could Lin Zheng make a mistake?

Just as Yang Dong was plotting how to set a trap, the door to the private room opened and Lin Zheng walked in.

Looking at the table full of sumptuous seafood and the box of Wuliangye liquor, Lin Zheng was first stunned, then sneered inwardly.

He threatened Yang Dong to do things for him, and it was already a miracle that Yang Dong didn't hate him to the core.

Now they've prepared such a lavish feast to entertain him; this is quite a trap.
