Let them offer their loyalty!-Chapter 366 - 273: The Birth of Moonlight Lake! (10,000 Words for Monthly Ticket!)
....
Meanwhile, as Liu Xiongyuan initiated his actions and began to catalyze Moonlight Lake,
Qiu Tu also arrived at the Investigation Bureau.
The current Qiu Tu and the one who first came to the Investigation Bureau were in completely different states.
His neat black investigator’s uniform now bore the insignia of three bars and one flower on his shoulders; division heads and agents along the way all stood to salute him.
Wherever he went, Qiu Tu began to enjoy the attention and deference befitting a high-ranking official of the Investigation Bureau.
Secretary Tan Huimin was obviously more diligent today. She waited early in the parking lot, and as soon as Qiu Tu’s car stopped, she promptly came forward to open the door for him.
After picking up Qiu Tu, she took the initiative to lead the way elegantly, all the while briefing Qiu Tu on the day’s schedule and arrangements.
She epitomized the level of excellence expected of a secretary.
Only, perhaps because her attire was too glamorous today—not only had she dressed up, but she also wore a light makeup and applied bright red lipstick—
every time his gaze fell upon her seductive lips, Qiu Tu couldn’t help but recall the scene where she swallowed his "provision" from the day before.
’I’m still influenced by this woman…’
While contemplating that beauty was like a double-edged sword, Qiu Tu joined Secretary Tan in the elevator and went upstairs.
Given Qiu Tu’s current status, no one of equal or lesser rank would take the initiative to ride the elevator with him. Therefore, the spacious elevator contained only Qiu Tu and Secretary Tan.
Perhaps perceiving Qiu Tu’s unusual gaze, Secretary Tan took the initiative to ask, "Chief, why do you keep looking at my mouth?"
With that, she extended her index finger and gently pressed her delicate lips, inquiring, "Is my lipstick smeared by accident?"
Qiu Tu:….
Qiu Tu was 99% certain that this woman was trying to seduce him.
Well, the remaining 1% was wondering if she was hinting at wanting to have a quick encounter right there in the elevator!
Yesterday, although Secretary Tan acted convincingly, she was clearly sober. Being so, she must be aware of what happened between them.
If she was behaving like this now, she was no doubt attempting seduction.
As Qiu Tu was thinking this, Secretary Tan spoke up.
In a soft voice, she said, "Yesterday afternoon, when I was sleeping, I felt like I had a long dream. I dreamed that Ah-Tao had left Xinjie City."
"That was the most comfortable sleep I’ve had in recent days."
"I wonder when that will become a reality."
"By then, I guess my sleep will be even more comfortable."
Qiu Tu:….
Although Secretary Tan spoke vaguely, she was actually reminding Qiu Tu to fulfill his "promise."
And she continued to tempt Qiu Tu with promises—the "comfort" she referred to was likely not about how comfortably she slept, but rather how comfortable it would be to sleep with her, right?
However, for some reason, Qiu Tu, who had been eager a moment earlier, suddenly cooled down.
Although Secretary Tan was indeed tempting, Qiu Tu had his own principles about certain matters.
Oh, it wasn’t that those who sided with an Evil God must die, but rather... if they are enemies, they must be eliminated without leaving future troubles!
Even though Zheng Tao might not have intentionally opposed him and might have many compelling reasons,
Qiu Tu never spared in contemplating the most venomous perspective of a person.
—Zheng Tao had offended him. Even if he was prepared to forgive Zheng Tao from the bottom of his heart, would Zheng Tao truly believe it?
And having delivered his wife right to Qiu Tu’s lips—although he hadn’t completely devoured her but had already tasted her—would Zheng Tao genuinely be indifferent?
Qiu Tu, if placed in that situation, certainly would not simply put aside such animosity.
He would certainly bear the grudge, gather his strength, and find satisfaction in eventually killing his enemy.
Therefore, although Secretary Tan had good intentions, what she didn’t know was that from the moment she tasted Qiu Tu, Zheng Tao’s fate was truly sealed….
Thinking this way, Qiu Tu showed nothing on his face.
He joked, "Director Zheng will certainly be safe. It’s just that Secretary Tan may need to dream a few more times."
Hearing Qiu Tu’s overt flirtation, Secretary Tan’s expression tensed for a moment and her hand involuntarily tightened into a fist, but she soon returned to normal.
She was intent on probing further, but at that moment—
With a "ding," they arrived at the ninth floor.
Qiu Tu stepped out of the elevator, and seeing this, Secretary Tan quickly followed.
Arriving at the office, Qiu Tu soon immersed himself in a day’s work.
As the vice-minister of the Political Department, especially one with extensive authority, Qiu Tu had a lot of work that was also highly valuable.
Especially now that he had officially taken over the intelligence department, the Intelligence Section began delivering daily important intelligence summaries, allowing him to understand comprehensively the events occurring in Xinjie City each day.
Just like yesterday, perhaps due to changes in Yan Chen’s Illusion of the Law, The military dispatched a battalion to be stationed around Garden Villa.
Like the Security Department, which had recently been actively planting agents within the United Front.

Like City Hall, which had successfully partnered with a wealthy Eastern City businessman yesterday to handle the redevelopment of an abandoned area of the city.
The overall terms were not particularly generous; the businessman would probably not make much profit through normal operations.
However, outside of this partnership, Commissioner Jiang from City Hall also gave the nod to allot a plot near Xinjie’s east gate to that wealthy businessman.
