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

Foreword: The previous version underwent major revisions, with many detailed descriptions removed, hence the late release date.

I haven't quite mastered these details yet, and I'll pay more attention to them in the future to ensure timely updates.

At the same time, this chapter has also been slightly deleted. While ensuring continuity, some sensitive content has been removed. Now the detection has been cleared of any risks, and it should be able to be updated at the scheduled time as normal.

At the same time, I would like to thank all the readers for their love of this book. I will definitely write more books in the future and strive to write plots that everyone will like even more.

...............

Lu Ming stood at the door, listening to the commotion inside, and knew that things had gone well.

After going downstairs, he called Mu Xueqi and said, "Have someone come over."

Ten minutes later, the lobby manager led the police straight to room 606.

After confirming the house number, the police officer ordered, "Open the door!"

The lobby manager nodded repeatedly, but cold sweat was already beading on his forehead.

This is a five-star hotel, and someone actually reported that there was prostitution going on here?

The police have arrived, and they're even live-streaming a raid on prostitution!

When he took the elevator up just now, he glanced at the live stream and saw that there were tens of thousands of people in the room!

He took out his room card, swiped it, and the door opened with a beep.

The police rushed in quickly, with the officer who was broadcasting live at the very back, holding his phone high with both hands.

The appalling scene in the room came into everyone's view.

At that moment, the live stream chat exploded.

At first, the comments were all about how exciting and fun it was, but then someone revealed the identities of the three people, and the tide turned instantly.

"Wow, isn't that Wang Qiang, the director of the municipal government office?"

"Don't tell me, you really shouldn't tell me."

"Guys, hurry up and record the screen!"

"..."

Wang Qiang and his two companions, who were immersed in their joy, finally came to their senses when they saw a group of police officers.

The three were initially bewildered, then filled with anger.

Wang Qiang, as expected of a leader, still maintained his imposing manner even at this moment.

He was naked, pointed at the lead policeman, and yelled, "Who let you in? Get out!"

The policeman calmly replied, "We received a tip that there's a group of people causing a disturbance here!"

"Also, I'd like to remind you that we are currently live-streaming a crackdown on prostitution!"

live streaming?

Wang Qiang hurriedly covered his face and shouted, "Get out! All of you, get out!"

Li Ping was so frightened that he grabbed the blanket and covered his head, trembling all over.

Ignoring Wang Qiang's identity, the police officer said to the men behind him, "Make them put on their clothes and take them all back to the station."

……

Jiang Ling is attending a dinner party tonight. She has just finished showering and is leaning back on the sofa applying a face mask.

Suddenly, the cell phone on the coffee table rang.

He picked it up and saw that it was a call from his secretary, Chen Pei.

"explain."

"Mayor, Director Wang has been arrested!"

Chen Pei quickly explained the situation, and Jiang Ling simply hummed in response before hanging up.

She closed her eyes again, then opened them a moment later, found the phone number of Wei Heping, the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, and dialed it.

"What? Director Wang has been arrested?"

Wei Heping was shocked, and then quickly said, "Mayor Jiang, don't worry, I will handle this matter."

The person who could become the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau was certainly not a fool. After listening to Jiang Ling's brief explanation, Wei Heping realized that there was something fishy about the matter.

After making several phone calls and learning the details, he became even more certain that Wang Qiang had been set up.

Wang Qiang and the other two were taken away by officers from the Chaoyang Street Police Station in Haiyuan District.

So he immediately contacted Zhao Bing, the director of the Chaoyang Street Police Station.

"What's the current situation with Director Wang?"

"I just finished giving my statement and I've already been sent to the detention room."

"Who gave you permission to detain him?"

"Huh? He... he's inciting a mob to chant hymns, of course he has to..."

"What do you mean by 'gathering a crowd in a disorderly manner'? They were just having a legitimate hotel room appointment. What are you doing here, sneaking around like dogs? Release them right now!"

"Director Wei, I'm afraid we can't release it now."

"Zhao Bing! Does my word no longer carry weight?"

"Director Wei, that's not what I meant. It was a live-streamed raid on prostitution, with tens of thousands of people watching. Viewers even recognized Director Wang. If I released him and then the public reported me, I... I can't bear that responsibility!"

Wei Heping's lips twitched, and he cursed, "Live-streaming a crackdown on prostitution? Who gave them permission to do that?"

Zhao Bing said, "Director Wei, this was decided at a meeting of the Municipal Bureau two months ago. They said we need to keep up with the times, get closer to the people, and use the internet to increase our efforts to combat unhealthy practices. Have you forgotten?"

"I……"

Wei Heping was speechless for a moment, and then angrily hung up the phone.

Zhao Bing put down his phone and sighed.

He was also very upset about this.

Anyone with half a brain could see that Wang Qiang had been set up.

As for who orchestrated this scheme, everyone knows the answer.

If you, Wang Qiang, can do what's right from wrong, then others can do what's right from wrong.

Zhao Bing now only hopes that when gods fight, he, a nobody, won't get dragged into it.

……

"Mayor, Wang Qiang and two others have been arrested for allegedly inciting a public disturbance."

Lu Ming returned to his car and immediately reported to Yu Wei.

"I'll go to the police station in a bit to talk to Zhou Lin."

Yu Wei asked, "What are you talking about?"

Now that the person has been arrested and Lu Ming's plan has been completed, what else is there to talk about?

Lu Ming replied, "I'll ask her if she wants to come out."

"Do you want to come out?"

Yu Wei was somewhat puzzled.

The group was caught in the act of chanting and reciting poetry in the act, which was being broadcast live at the time. Now that the incident is gaining more and more attention, it's only a matter of time before it becomes a public opinion issue.

In this situation, even Jiang Ling's intervention wouldn't work, but Lu Ming had a way to get Zhou Lin to come out.

"You have another plan?"

"I'll go talk to her first, and if she's willing, I'll report to the mayor tomorrow."

"Are you keeping me in suspense?"

"Mayor, you misunderstand. I was just afraid that if I told you in advance and things didn't work out, I would lose face."

"Alright, you can go now."

"Yes."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Ming drove to the police station.

Seeing Lu Ming arrive, Zhao Bing greeted him with a smile, feigning ignorance as he asked, "Secretary Lu, what brings you here?"

Lu Ming said, "The mayor asked me to come and inquire about the situation, and also to check on Secretary Zhou."

"Okay, let's talk inside."

Lu Ming chatted with Zhao Bing in the office for more than ten minutes before saying, "Director Zhao, please make some arrangements. I need to meet with Zhou Lin."

"OK."

Zhao Bing made a phone call, and then took Lu Ming to the detention room.

Inside the detention room, Zhou Lin was disheveled and her eyes were lifeless.

She was now fully awake, and everything that had just happened at the hotel was still vivid in her mind, as if she had just had a dream.

I was actually... by Li Ping and Wang Qiang?!

This is unbelievable!

She didn't realize anything was wrong at the time, but looking back now, it's definitely not right.

Although she hadn't done anything pleasurable in a long time, even if she was extremely thirsty, she wouldn't be so aroused by two old men, would she?

Not to mention, being attacked by both of them at the same time...!

Zhou Lin now strongly suspects that she has been drugged.

When was it downloaded?

Zhou Lin began to recall carefully.

Before she could recall anything, the door to the detention cell suddenly opened.

Seeing Lu Ming standing at the door, Zhou Lin was first stunned, then turned her head away in shame, not daring to meet his gaze.

They were both Yu Wei's secretaries and were competitors.

But now, she has lost completely!

"Bring her out; I need to talk to her alone!"

"it is good."

After leading them to his office, Zhao Bing closed the door and left.

Lu Ming had barely sat down and hadn't even spoken when Zhou Lin said self-deprecatingly, "Did you come here specifically to laugh at me?"

She bit her lip, her stubbornness tinged with a hint of resentment.

Lu Ming shook his head and smiled, "I'm here to help you!"

"help me?"

A glimmer of hope first appeared in Zhou Lin's eyes, then she shook her head mockingly.

At a time like this, anyone might step forward to help you, but Lu Ming is the only one who won't!

Having secretly plotted against him so many times, he should be gloating and kicking me when I'm down, not helping me.

"What? You don't believe me?" Lu Ming had anticipated her reaction and said slowly, "Xiao Zhou, I personally don't have any issues with you. On the contrary, I quite admire you."

"You have a strong learning ability, but you are dishonest and always like to take shortcuts."

"If you had just done your job properly, you wouldn't be in this situation today."

"Of course, there's no point in talking about that now. Let's talk about something useful."

"I came here to help you. After all, you are Mayor Yu's secretary. If you are convicted of inciting a disturbance, it will be disgraceful for Mayor Yu."

Hearing this, Zhou Lin asked with some skepticism, "How are you going to help me?"
