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

Lu Ming wasn't in a hurry. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Take me to the casino first."

"Yes."

Upon arriving at the casino, Lu Ming asked, "Where do we exchange our chips?"

"Secretary Lu, please wait a moment."

The woman in the cheongsam swayed her hips as she walked towards the chip exchange area, and soon returned with a box of chips.

"Secretary Lu, this is a token from Chairman Qian, worth one million."

"Chairman Qian said that Secretary Lu can play as much as he wants; if he loses, it's on him, and if he wins, it's all yours."

"This...isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Lu Ming responded politely, but was secretly shocked, thinking that Qian Kuo really didn't lose his mind when it came to spending money.

Faced with such temptation, most people probably wouldn't be able to resist.

Even he felt a surge of excitement at that moment.

"You are Chairman Qian's distinguished guest, so it's only natural. Secretary Lu, what would you like to play, poker or dominoes?"

Lu Ming glanced around and asked, "No mahjong tiles?"

"Yes, Secretary Lu, please wait a moment."

The woman in the cheongsam turned and left, then returned and led Lu Ming into a private room.

There was a mahjong machine in the private room, along with two women and one man.

The woman appeared to be in her thirties and had an average appearance.

The man was probably in his forties, with dark skin and a somewhat honest appearance.

After Lu Ming sat down, the others didn't say anything and immediately began.

At first, Lu Ming thought this was just a game where they were short one player, but as he played, he realized something was wrong.

He kept winning hands and couldn't even turn the tables on the dealer. Only then did he realize that these three people were definitely rich and had come specifically to give him money.

In less than an hour, Lu Ming's chips had increased from one million to more than one and a half million.

Lu Ming deliberately feigned excitement, and after winning another hand, he reached out and violently grabbed and kneaded the voluptuous buttocks of the woman in the cheongsam, asking, "Can all these chips be exchanged for cash?"

The woman in the cheongsam deliberately flattered him, saying in a sweet voice, "Of course, Secretary Lu can change anytime he wants."

"Secretary Lu is really amazing. This is the first time I've ever seen someone win so much at mahjong."

Lu Ming laughed loudly, "Hahaha, luck, luck!"

Lu Ming continued playing while smoking, and after less than half an hour, he pushed the mahjong tiles in front of him, stood up, and said, "I'm not playing anymore, I'm not playing anymore."

While playing mahjong, Lu Ming had already come up with a plan.

Since Qian Kuo wants to corrupt me, then I'll show him how depraved I can be.

If he's willing to give me money, then I'll take it; it's free money anyway.

You're rich, aren't you? Then I'll come over every day to play mahjong!

Let's see how long you can keep up this arrogance!

Upon arriving at the chip exchange counter, Lu Ming received a text message from the bank shortly afterward.

He deliberately acted excited and agitated, as if he were truly captivated.

"Secretary Lu, shall we go upstairs to rest now?"

"It's getting late, I have to go back."

After Lu Ming finished speaking, he asked, "Are you going to work tomorrow?"

"Up."

"That's good. Come serve me again tomorrow."

After saying that, Lu Ming reached out to touch her buttocks again.

Suddenly, he paused, looked around, and finally glanced at the security camera in the corner. He then gave an embarrassed smile and withdrew his hand.

"Please give me a ride."

The two arrived at the lobby, and Lu Ming deliberately led her to a blind spot in the surveillance cameras.

As soon as he was out of the surveillance range, he impatiently reached out to grab and rub, causing the woman in the cheongsam to let out a soft cry.

"Secretary Lu, others will see this."

"If you'd like, let's go to the private hot spring room downstairs."

Lu Ming chuckled: "No need, no need, I just wanted to touch it."

After seeing Lu Ming off, Lu Ming said, "Alright, you can go back now."

The woman in the cheongsam said with a resentful look in her eyes, "Secretary Lu, I'll be waiting for you tomorrow."

Lu Ming scratched his butt again before leaving, satisfied.

Little did they know, Mu Xueqi had seen all of this.

"This guy..."

She muttered a couple of things, then packed her things and went downstairs.

After watching Lu Ming drive away, the woman in the cheongsam returned to the club and went to a private hot spring room.

Inside the private room, Qian Kuo lay naked on the bed.

Beside her was a completely naked woman who was massaging her back.

The woman in the cheongsam walked up, knelt on the ground, and reported softly, "Chairman Qian, Secretary Lu has left."

Qian Kuo closed his eyes and said lazily, "Gone? Didn't leave?"

The woman in the cheongsam replied, "No, he was very careful. He avoided the surveillance cameras when he tried to touch me inappropriately."

Qian Kuo chuckled and said, "Cautious? Hehe, caution is good."

Why would someone be cautious?

It's because he had the desire to steal, but not the courage!

If someone has thieving intentions, they are easy to control.

The woman in the cheongsam continued her report: "As you instructed, all the money Secretary Lu won has been transferred to his bank card."

"Just before leaving, Lu Ming told me to wait for him tomorrow."

"Oh? He really said that?"

"Yes."

"Alright, then you'd better serve him well."

……

Not long after leaving Qingwufang, Lu Ming received a call from Mu Xueqi.

"You go home first, I'm going to see the mayor."

After hanging up, Lu Ming called Yu Wei again.

"Mayor, I've come out of Qingwufang."

Yu Wei was very decisive this time, saying, "Come over here."

"Yes."

Upon arriving at Yu Wei's home, Lu Ming recounted what he had witnessed that evening.

"You mean Mayor Jiang's secretary is also here?"

"That's right, I didn't expect Qian Kuo to even get Mayor Jiang under his control."

Yu Wei shook her head and said, "Don't rush to conclusions. Just because Chen Pei is in Qingwufang doesn't mean Mayor Jiang is necessarily there."

Lu Ming was taken aback, and then realized that he had a prejudice against Jiang Ling, so when making a judgment, he would naturally be prejudiced.

"The mayor is right."

Lu Ming added, "Qian Kuo asked me to come over today, but he didn't say anything serious."

"I felt he was trying to test me further, so I played mahjong for a while at the casino in Qingwufang."

Yu Wei asked, "How much did you win?"

"Less than 600,000."

"Tsk tsk, this guy is really willing to spend money."

"Mayor, I plan to go again tomorrow."

"Um?"

Yu Wei looked puzzled.

Lu Ming explained, "Since he's willing to invest so much, I'll go every day."

"This will definitely make him much less wary of me."

"Besides, I've been winning money all along. If he really wants me to do something, he'll definitely show his true colors soon enough."

"At the same time, I can also take a look at who else in officialdom has already mingled with him, so that we can have a clear understanding of the situation."

Yu Wei thought about it and felt that it was indeed feasible, reminding her, "Be careful not to exaggerate too much."

"Mayor, rest assured."

After the report concluded, Lu Ming was about to get up and leave when Yu Wei suddenly asked, "I heard from Xiao Luo that you haven't been going back to stay during this time?"

"Is it because she moved in, and it's inconvenient?"

Lu Ming was taken aback. He hadn't expected that Luo Shuixian and Yu Wei would talk about these things in private.

So, their relationship must be very good.

Lu Ming shook his head and replied, "It has nothing to do with her."

Seeing that it didn't seem like a casual excuse, Yu Wei nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

If it's really because of Luo Shuixian that Lu Ming can't go home, then she has to find a way to get Luo Shuixian to come back and live with her.

But if that's not the case, then let's leave it at that for now.

Half an hour later, Lu Ming arrived at Mu Xueqi's house.

As soon as she entered, Mu Xueqi said sarcastically, "Oh, Secretary Lu is here. How soft are the girls' butts at Qingwufang?"
