You were put undercover, and you've risen to become the boss.

Tang An was the deputy director of Yangcheng in charge of drug enforcement and other matters. His murder was taken very seriously by the provincial department, which immediately ordered a thorough investigation.

Within a day, the truck driver was found, but there was no evidence to suggest he was involved in the murder. He was simply drunk driving, causing a crash and fleeing the scene. The nearby surveillance cameras had also been destroyed, so no evidence could be found immediately.

Inside the villa.

Chen Hui was playing games out of boredom when his phone received a text message.

Within two days, Zuo Min began to trust him, and the signal jammer was temporarily turned off.

Peng Ying and her group followed him all day long. When she picked up her phone, she saw a message from Xu Qingyan.

"Brother Hui, have you been missing her?"

Upon seeing the text message, Chen Hui immediately understood that something must have happened, otherwise Xu Qingyan would not have contacted him first, and quickly replied.

"Of course I want to! I'll be there tonight, so you'd better wait for me at the shop!"

Peng Ying immediately came over, glanced at the text message, but didn't notice anything amiss.

"Brother Hui, your wife misses you."

Chen Hui shoved his phone away and glared at him.

"You son of a bitch, don't you know anything about other people's privacy? You were peeping!"

"Brother Hui, I'm just helping you choose!"

"Stop talking nonsense, get out!"

Xu Qingyan arrived at the store with practiced ease, wearing a black spaghetti strap fitted dress that perfectly showcased her figure, making her incredibly alluring.

"Brother Hui!"

Xu Qingyan came up, extremely charming, and spoke in a delicate, high-pitched voice.

Without saying a word, Chen Hui picked him up and carried him to the room on the second floor.

This time, Peng Ying was far away outside, and the sounds coming from inside the room made him feel distracted. It was better not to keep eavesdropping.

"You called me because Director Qi and the others have given you some instructions?"

"Yes, Director Qi wants you to use Zuo Min's support to take control of the market in Yangcheng. Wild Boar died, Butcher died, and then there was Leopard. Their men are in complete disarray, and drugs have been found in their respective territories."

"With Zuo Min's support, you can control all their drug channels and bring them together. This will make it easier for Director Qi and his men to deploy and manage these drugs, preventing them from entering the market."

Chen Hui nodded.

"I'll try my best!"

"Oh, right, there's one more thing. Tang An, the deputy director of Yangcheng, was shot and killed last night."

Upon hearing this, Chen Hui's eyes widened, a glint of disbelief flashing in them.

He knew who Tang An was: a deputy director in Yangcheng who was also in charge of drug enforcement.

He was actually shot dead! This was a deputy bureau chief! These people are insane!

"Not only Director Tang, but I heard his wife also hanged herself at home!"

Chen Hui narrowed his eyes and said with great certainty.

"Clearly, this was premeditated."

"Yes, Director Qi and the others think so too. However, Director Tang's house was set on fire, and there were no clues whatsoever. Let me ask you, do you have any leads?"

Chen Hui's expression changed slightly.

"Does Director Qi and the others suspect it was Zuo Mingan?"

"Yes, Director Tang took the lead in every step of the arrest of Butcher and Leopard's men, and he was also very dedicated to investigating your case."

Chen Hui nodded.

"That's probably related to Zuo Min. He said before that he would help me solve the problems in Yangcheng and let me take over the position of Butcher smoothly. I originally thought it was just to solve some problems, but now it seems that he has solved the problems at the Yangcheng Police Station as well. I haven't seen him these days. Aung San has been by his side and hasn't shown his face."

Xu Qingyan gasped, her expression grave.

"It seems that the affair between Director Tang and his wife is very likely related to Zuo Mingan. I will report this information to Director Qi and General Manager Tan."

"If that's the case, these people are truly lawless."

If they dare to take action against even a deputy director in charge of narcotics enforcement, what else wouldn't these drug dealers dare to do?

Chen Hui squinted, lost in thought. He couldn't help but sigh, realizing that these drug dealers' methods were indeed unlike those of ordinary criminal gangs.

These people have no bottom line, no regard for any underworld rules, and no humanity whatsoever.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly looked at Xu Qingyan.

"You're only twenty-six this year?"

Xu Qingyan looked at him in surprise upon hearing this.

Why are you asking this?

"You're still young, and you haven't even settled down and started a family yet. I think you can apply to be transferred back to Ningcheng."

Xu Qingyan was taken aback, her beautiful eyes flickering a few times.

Are you worried about me?

"Zuo Min and her gang are no ordinary people, especially since you're a woman. If you're exposed one day, you won't be able to escape, and you might even face their retaliation. Their methods are utterly ruthless and inhumane!"

Xu Qingyan looked solemn.

"It's true that I'm a woman, but I'm also a police officer. As a police officer, I'm not afraid. If you can carry out a mission, so can I. Besides, if I leave now, who will contact you?"

Chen Hui looked at her resolute gaze and shook his head helplessly.

Why are you staring at me like that?

Chen Hui asked with a serious expression.

"Where's the money I gave you?"

Xu Qingyan was puzzled, her beautiful eyes flickering a few times.

"I've already handed them all over to Director Qi!"

"Have they all been handed in?"

Xu Qingyan nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"Of course, this is all embezzled money, and I've definitely turned it in!"

Chen Hui said in a serious tone.

"You don't need to hand over the money I give you; just spend it all!"

Why?

"Don't forget your current status, and don't underestimate Zuo Min. You are now nominally my woman. I've given you so much money, but you haven't bought anything for yourself. Don't you think people will become suspicious?"

"Once I officially replace the Butcher, you'll be the boss's woman. If you don't have any luxury items on you, it'll naturally arouse suspicion."

Xu Qingyan suddenly realized, her beautiful eyes widening in surprise. She hadn't really considered this issue, and she quickly nodded.

"What should I buy?"

"Look at other women, whatever luxury items they have, you buy them all—necklaces, watches, clothes, cosmetics, and so on!"

"Last time I gave you so much money, and you didn't buy a single thing. You can't even explain where you spent it, and people will definitely be suspicious."

Xu Qingyan nodded, her beautiful eyes flickering as she looked at the clothes she was wearing.

"I just bought this dress, it should be fine, right? It was purchased with funds that Mr. Tan helped me apply for, it cost several thousand yuan."

"No, from now on, do as I say. Don't underestimate Zuo Min and her gang. Any small clue will arouse their suspicion. If we're not careful, we're all finished!"

Xu Qingyan nodded seriously.

"Okay, but I need to report this to Director Qi and General Manager Tan when I get back!"
