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

Su Hengyue stared in disbelief.

Liu Zi's red lips were wide open.

Su Ran also covered her mouth in surprise.

What... what's going on?

Lu Ming's single sentence caused Secretary Wang to slap himself in the face?

Snapped!

clap clap!

clap clap clap!

Wang Yanchun was still slapping himself because Lu Ming hadn't told him to stop.

He smoked while forcing a fawning smile, not daring to show any emotion even though he wanted to tear Lu Ming to pieces.

Liu Zi glanced at Lu Ming with her beautiful eyes, already having a guess in her mind.

It seems that Lu Ming has something on Wang Yanchun, which is why he can make Wang Yanchun so subservient.

Lu Ming ignored Wang Yanchun, looked at Su Hengyue, and said, "Uncle Su, let's go somewhere else to eat."

Su Hengyue glanced at Wang Yanchun, who was still slapping himself, and nodded.

Lu Ming led Su Ran and Su Hengyue out of the private room.

Liu Zi glanced at Wang Yanchun, and without any hesitation, followed him.

Soon, only Wang Yanchun remained in the private room.

Only then did he stop slapping himself.

By this time, his face was badly swollen, but he didn't feel much pain because all he felt now was unprecedented anger!

……

Soon, the group arrived at another restaurant.

As soon as they entered the private room, Liu Zi began, "Secretary Lu, just now I..."

Lu Ming didn't let her finish speaking and coldly said, "Get out."

Liu Zi's face instantly froze, and she looked at Su Hengyue for help, but Su Hengyue ignored her completely.

She looked at Su Ran again, but Su Ran turned her head away.

Liu Zi was furious, but she didn't dare show it in front of Lu Ming. She could only maintain a polite smile and leave.

As soon as she left, Lu Ming spoke up, "Uncle Su, I'm sorry, I've dragged you into this."

Su Hengyue shook his head: "Let's not talk about this anymore."

He glanced at his daughter standing behind Lu Ming and sighed softly.

Just now, Lu Ming had Wang Yanchun firmly under his control, which means the company's funds are not a concern.

But now, he is more worried about Su Ran.

As a secretary, Lu Ming was able to force the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee to slap himself in front of everyone, which shows how ruthless he is.

Su Ran couldn't handle a man like that.

He wondered if he should find an opportunity to talk to Su Ran about it.

But... daughters grow up and leave home, will she listen to what I say?

Sorrow!

With no outsiders present, the meal went very smoothly.

After finishing his meal, Lu Ming stood up to say goodbye: "Uncle Su, I have something to attend to, so I'll head back now. Please enjoy your meal."

"Ranran, see Secretary Lu out."

"it is good."

Su Ran escorted Lu Ming to the restaurant entrance, exclaiming excitedly, "Brother Lu Ming, you look so handsome today!"

Lu Ming laughed and said, "Alright, no matter what happens in the future, remember to tell me immediately, okay?"

"Okay."

"Okay, then you can go back now."

"Brother Lu Ming, please... please kiss me."

Su Ran looked up, her face shy yet full of anticipation.

Lu Ming looked around to make sure no one was watching, then leaned down and kissed her on the cheek.

Su Ran said with satisfaction, "Drive carefully on your way back."

"Um."

Su Ran returned to the private room, and seeing her daughter's overjoyed expression, Su Hengyue became even more worried.

He sighed and asked, "Ranran, how far have things progressed between you and Secretary Lu?"

Su Ran blushed and asked knowingly, "What do you mean, 'at what stage'?"

"You two... haven't slept together yet, have you?"

Su Ran said shyly, "Oh dear, Dad, why...why are you asking me that?"

Su Hengyue said seriously, "Ranran, if you haven't slept together yet, then listen to your father's advice, pull back from the brink in time, and break up with Secretary Lu as soon as possible."

Su Ran was taken aback: "Why, Dad? Why don't you even think highly of me?"

Su Hengyue sighed and said, "It's not that I don't think it's a good match, but you two are not suitable. I'm worried that you'll suffer if you stay with him."

Su Ran retorted, "No way! Brother Lu Ming is so good to me!"

Su Hengyue said helplessly, "It's not about whether he's good to you or not, it's just that he's too capable, and you can't subdue him."

"Song Chuhe committed suicide out of fear of punishment. Logically speaking, he should be the next person to be held accountable."

"But instead of being marginalized, he was reappointed as Mayor Yu's secretary."

"As you saw today, even Wang Yanchun was completely subdued by him."

"How could a guy like that not have a shortage of women around him in the future?"

"There is no future for you being with him, and he will never marry you."

"What if you waste your youth following him, and then you're older and have no official status? What will you do then?"

"Am I supposed to be his mistress for the rest of my life?"

Su Hengyue's words were quite blunt and straightforward, but the reasoning behind them was sound.

He meant that he had made himself clear, and Su Ran would surely come to her senses.

Unexpectedly, she seemed to have already made up her mind, replying without hesitation, "Isn't it normal for someone as outstanding as Brother Lu Ming to have many women around him?"

"Besides, I never intended to possess him entirely; as long as he has me in his heart, that's enough."

"As for titles and such, I don't care."

Su Hengyue could hardly believe that his daughter had said those words.

"Ranran, you..."

"Dad, don't think I don't know. Aren't you having other women behind Mom's back too?"

Su Hengyue's lips twitched, and he couldn't help but blush.

"Okay, I'm full, I'm going back now."

Su Ran turned and left the private room.

……

Upon returning to his office, Wang Yanchun immediately called the Economic Crime Investigation Team to unfreeze Hengyue Group's accounts.

He is now extremely anxious, fearing that Lu Ming will hand over the video of his confession to the disciplinary committee.

If he really hands it over, then I'll be doomed.

Just as he was feeling uneasy, Secretary Xu rushed in, saying in a panic, "Secretary Wang, something terrible has happened!"

Wang Yanchun's heart jumped into his throat. Could it be that Lu Ming would report him as soon as he got back?

What a fucking beast!

At that moment, Xu Lei handed him a cell phone, on which a video was playing.

In the video, a fair-skinned woman is leaning against a wall, with a tall man standing behind her. The two are enthusiastically learning English.

Wang Yanchun was stunned, then cursed, "What the hell did you show me?!"

Xu Lei cautiously asked, "Secretary Wang, take a closer look at this woman. Does she look familiar?"

look familiar?

Wang Yanchun stared at the screen for a few seconds, and sure enough, it did look somewhat familiar.

When the woman revealed her profile, Wang Yanchun's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Holy crap!

Isn't this my wife?

He hurriedly dragged the progress bar, and when the two finished their battle and the woman turned around to reveal her face, it was none other than his wife's face.

Wang Yanchun was instantly filled with rage.

His anger wasn't because his wife was unfaithful.

In fact, he had known all along that his wife was having an affair.

However, he didn't care, since he wasn't exactly clean outside either.

They had long since developed a tacit understanding to each do their own thing.

He was so angry because his wife's infidelity had been filmed!

And it's an unfinished building!

Embarrassing.

This is so embarrassing!
