Special Expert of Beauty CEO-Chapter 1537 - 1541: The Undercover Agent Beside Qin Tian

"Caught in the act?"

Qin Tian's words seemed to remind Lei Shi, who was stunned for a moment before looking at Qin Tian. He fell into silence and said, "Yes, catching them in the act is a good suggestion. These adulterers must have been sneaking around for more than just a day or two... They'll surely meet again next time!"

Qin Tian fanned the flames: "Exactly, judging by how they act, they specifically choose times when the Governor is not at home. Hehe, they're quite cunning."

"Cunning? Just wait, I'll deal with them!"

Lei Shi clenched his fist and said to Qin Tian, "Qin Tian, don't tell anyone about this matter. Even if those adulterers are dealt with, you must not speak of this to anyone. You know, in the Governor's eye, he won't tolerate any sand!"

"Rest assured, General Lei, I am not foolish."

Qin Tian nodded, and the two acted as if nothing had happened, first going to pay respects to Xiao Zhan, who had just returned to the mansion, and then leaving together,

"How did it go?"

Upon returning, Xiao Zhuang and Lin Yu asked Qin Tian.

Qin Tian smiled smugly and said, "It's settled now; we'll just wait for the news. Within ten days, the Governor's Mansion should have some news."

In fact, it didn't take ten days. Four days later, Wang Zhen and Xiao Zhan's eighteenth wife were caught red-handed by Xiao Zhan.

Qin Tian naturally wasn't at the scene, but apparently, Lei Shi invited Xiao Zhan to his house as a guest when he got word that Wang Zhen had gone again to the Governor's Mansion. He then revealed the matter to Xiao Zhan at his own house.

Then, the two left Lei Shi's residence quietly without taking any guards, heading straight to the Governor's Mansion.

In order to avoid alarming anyone, they even entered through the backdoor of the Governor's Mansion.

The two went directly to the bedroom of the eighteenth wife, catching Wang Zhen and the eighteenth wife in the act.

It's said that Xiao Zhan was furious at the scene, first stabbing the eighteenth wife with a sword, then striking Wang Zhen heavily, sending him directly to prison, awaiting judgment. If he could come out alive, it would be a miracle.

As a result, Qin Tian was one step closer to his goal.

The next step was much easier to accomplish.

Among the generals under Xiao Zhan, who wield military power, there are three: one is Lei Shi, Xiao Zhan's loyal confidant for over ten years, who is now the General at the South Gate.

The other one is Wang Zhen, who was just promoted to general but dared to mess with Xiao Zhan's wife, ruining his career completely.

The last one is Qin Tian.

The other generals don't have as much military power as the three of them.

Hence, after dealing with Wang Zhen, Qin Tian didn't need to actively apply to compete for the East Gate General position; Xiao Zhan had already sought him out.

"Qin Tian, I called you here today to discuss the East Gate Commander matter."

Qin Tian visited the Governor's Mansion to meet Xiao Zhan, who got straight to the point.

"Wang Zhen committed an unforgivable crime, and I plan to kill him. I already have a successor in mind for his military power."

"However, I previously recommended Wang Zhen for the position of East Gate General, and I didn't expect him to betray me..."

"Now, I intend for you to compete for the position of East Gate General. Do you have anything to say?"

Facing Xiao Zhan, Qin Tian hesitated briefly and solemnly said, "Governor, since graduation from East Han Academy, thanks to your promise to Miss Feili Xue's family, I was fortunate enough to join the City Guard Army."

"Since joining the City Guard Army, Qin Tian has always been under your care and promotion. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today."

"Now, I am willing to follow any arrangement from you. If you decide to recommend me as East Gate General, I will strive with all my might and live up to your trust!"

Hearing Qin Tian's words of loyalty, Xiao Zhan smiled, greatly pleased.

"Qin Tian, your achievements were earned through hard work, battle achievements, and risking your life. You deserve this. Your words today, old man very much appreciates them. Remember, since that's the case, prepare yourself. We must secure the position of East Gate General!"

At night, Qin Tian left the Governor's Mansion, exhaling slowly.

To compete for the East Gate General position, he had done everything he could. The remaining complexities of power were beyond him, leaving his fate up to chance.

However, after tonight's heart-to-heart conversation with Xiao Zhan, Qin Tian understood clearly that from then on, he was truly part of Xiao Zhan's direct lineage.

Reflecting on his relationship with Xiao Zhan, it seemed he had been promoted all along, with personal support and even preferential advancements, including command authority in battle, from Xiao Zhan.

Careful reflection showed that Xiao Zhan had indeed treated him well, with virtually no faults.

Qin Tian sincerely admired Xiao Zhan, so becoming part of Xiao Zhan's direct lineage felt natural, not forced.

Still, Qin Tian knew that on his journey to supremacy, Xiao Zhan was only a temporary stop.

...

Meanwhile, while Qin Tian was having a heart-to-heart talk with Xiao Zhan at the Governor's Mansion, Yun Luo quietly returned to the City Lord Mansion.

In the City Lord Mansion, the City Lord and Nangong Bingfeng were seated in the main hall, while Yun Luo stood in the center.

"Master, Young Master, Qin Tian currently doesn't seem to have any intentions to betray the City Guard Army. During this time, I haven't found any leverage against Qin Tian either. The detailed information is all in this report, please have a look."

Yun Luo handed over a report.

This report was entirely about Qin Tian, covering Qin Tian's personality, mindset, loyalty to the City Guard Army, and his close connections, all detailed by Yun Luo.

She had been in the City Lord Mansion for many years, purposefully planted as a mole beside Qin Tian by the City Lord Mansion!

The City Lord and Nangong Bingfeng read Yun Luo's report. Once Nangong Bingfeng saw the report, he turned pale!

"You wrote in here that Murong Fei visited Qin Tian's mansion voluntarily half a month ago? They talked for one incense stick's time in Qin Tian's study? Are you sure it was Murong Fei?"

Nangong Bingfeng was somewhat agitated as he spoke.

The report detailed all significant figures Qin Tian had received at his mansion lately.

Upon seeing Murong Fei's name, Nangong Bingfeng's eyes widened. He stood up from his seat, immediately startled!
