At the Pinnacle of Power: The Female Leader and Her Chief Advisor

Five men, all staring wide-eyed at their wives.

Faced with their questions, the five women were speechless.

That was brilliant, absolutely brilliant!

Everyone in the department cheered with delight; those who missed the day had wasted a whole year's work.

Some people, not wanting to miss out on the excitement, hurriedly called over people from other departments to come and watch the spectacle.

A large crowd of onlookers quickly gathered again at the entrance of the secretariat.

These men were really going all out, vividly recounting their wives' scandalous affair with Li Ping in front of everyone, making everyone want to grab some melon seeds.

When Li Ping heard the commotion outside, he was about to go out and check it out.

But when they learned the other person's identity and purpose for coming there, they were so frightened that they dared not show themselves.

He slept with someone else's wife, and now he goes out like that—it's like lighting a lamp in the toilet—he's asking for death!

He paced anxiously in his office, not knowing what to do.

Call the police?

No!

This is the city government, and this is such a shameful incident; we absolutely cannot call the police.

He hurriedly called Wang Qiang: "Director Wang, you really have to save me this time!"

Upon learning about the matter in the secretariat, Wang Qiang's first reaction was that Li Ping had offended someone and that someone was trying to get him.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that five men came to the city government at the same time demanding an explanation?

"Who have you offended recently?"

"I...I haven't offended anyone!"

At this point, Li Ping had automatically excluded Lu Ming from his considerations.

In his view, the conflict between Lu Ming and himself was over.

After all, he had already received the appropriate punishment.

Moreover, killing someone is just a matter of beheading them; Lu Ming couldn't possibly be unaware of this principle.

Wang Qiang also didn't suspect Lu Ming; he just thought it must be that idiot Li Ping who offended someone without realizing it.

"Are you an idiot?"

"Even rabbits know not to eat the grass near their burrows, yet you specifically target people in your own department?"

Wang Qiang was filled with regret. How could he have promoted such an idiot?

He can't get anything done right and keeps causing trouble for himself!

"Yes, yes, I'm an idiot, a moron, but Director Wang, you can't just stand by and watch me die!"

Now, as long as Wang Qiang is willing to save him, he wouldn't hesitate to scold him or even hit him.

"Stay in your office and don't come out!"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Qiang immediately went to the secretariat.

This matter absolutely cannot be blown out of proportion; it must be handled discreetly and as quickly as possible!

However, the other party came prepared, so it might not be so easy to resolve the situation.

Inside the secretariat, five men were still causing a ruckus.

They initially thought only their wives had been taken advantage of, but they never expected there to be so many victims.

That damn Li Ping, a mere department head, actually treats this place like his harem?

Li Yue grabbed his wife Ma Rongrong's hair, his eyes bloodshot, and said viciously, "Where is that adulterer?"

Ma Rongrong was so frightened that she dared not speak.

The situation has already escalated to this point; if Li Ping really shows up, things will become completely unmanageable.

"Director Li is in his office inside."

Someone in the crowd whispered something.

Everyone loves a good show, so they naturally didn't mind adding fuel to the fire.

Moreover, everyone had long suffered under Li Ping's rule, so they naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity to kick him while he was down.

Li Yue released Ma Rongrong and walked towards the office with the other four men.

The office door couldn't be opened; it had been locked from the inside.

Five men pounded on the door frantically.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Li Ping, I know you're in there. Open the door for me!"

"Get out here!"

"Damn it, now you're acting like a coward, trying to act tough like a woman?"

"Open the door!"

Li Ping was trembling with fear inside, not daring to utter a single sound.

Director Wang, come quick!

Just as Li Ping was praying in his heart, the office door was kicked open.

Startled, Li Ping quickly explained, "Please don't get agitated, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding..."

"I misunderstood you, you idiot next door!"

Li Yue was the first to rush forward, swinging his fist at Li Ping.

Li Ping was so frightened that he covered his head with his hands and crouched on the ground, not daring to fight back, and could only scream in agony.

People gathered around, taking photos and videos with their phones.

"What are you doing? Okay, everyone disperse, go back to work!"

Wang Qiang finally arrived. He wanted everyone to go back, but no one listened.

This is a free spectacle; you won't find another chance to see something like this.

Seeing that he couldn't get rid of them, Wang Qiang didn't continue. He hurriedly squeezed into the office and stepped forward to persuade them, "Everyone, don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive. Let's sit down and talk things over."

The men were furious and glared at Wang Qiang, asking, "Who the hell are you?"

Fearing that the other party might act impulsively and attack him as well, Wang Qiang quickly identified himself: "I am Wang Qiang, the office director. I'm here to solve your problem."

To his surprise, the five men didn't give him any face at all, cursing and saying, "Get the hell out of here, or we'll beat you up too!"

Wang Qiang was anxious, but he dared not stop them anymore.

At the same time, Luo Shuixian rushed back to the office excitedly: "Old Lu, Old Lu, Li Ping is almost beaten to death."

Lu Ming chuckled and said, "While this is a good thing, aren't you getting a little too excited?"

I checked the time; it was about time for me to make my appearance.

Lu Ming got up, stretched, and said, "Let's go take a look."

Arrived at the Secretariat.

"Make way, everyone."

The crowd automatically made way for Lu Ming.

Someone, fearing that Lu Ming might not be aware of the situation, quickly explained the whole story to him.

As soon as Lu Ming entered the office, he saw five men beating Li Ping.

These people knew their limits; although they fought hard, they only caused superficial injuries.

After all, they didn't have a good relationship with their wives, so there was no need for them to go to jail for such a fickle woman.

Two or three of them had known all along that their wives were having affairs, but they had been pretending not to know in order to maintain harmony in their families.

But this time, Su Ran promised them a sum of money after the matter was completed, which is why they came.

"Gentlemen, if you keep fighting, someone will die."

"It's not worth it to ruin yourself for a woman who cheats on you."

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Lu Ming.

Lu Ming introduced himself: "Let me introduce myself, I am Lu Ming, the mayor's secretary."

"I understand your situation. If you want a divorce, I can help you contact the Civil Affairs Bureau and get you through the fast track."

"If you simply want to vent or get revenge, I have a better suggestion."

Upon hearing Lu Ming's identity as the mayor's secretary, the crowd immediately became less arrogant and asked, "What suggestion?"

Lu Ming said, "Director Li's illicit sexual relationship with his subordinate is a matter of personal conduct. I suggest you report it to the Discipline Inspection Commission and let them handle it."
