The pinnacle of power: starting with having sex with a female leader-Chapter 168 - 0: You Must Help with This Favor!

Chapter 168: Chapter 0168: You Must Help with This Favor!

Shen Manwen was incredibly agitated; when her grandfather was still alive, she had once heard him say.

He had high hopes for Lin Xinghe precisely because of his uncorrupted nature.

It was because he had not been tainted by the bureaucratic world, still maintaining his original intentions of serving as an official, doing real work for the people, and safeguarding their legitimate rights and interests.

It seemed her grandfather truly hadn’t misjudged him!

The governor really was a good official who served the people!

"Please rest assured, Governor! I will definitely seek justice for the common people!"

After hanging up the phone, Shen Manwen fell into deep thought, frowning tightly.

Seeing Shen Manwen with her eyebrows knitted together, Cheng Yuan felt a twinge of panic in his heart!

If they couldn’t get the Governor’s support, this matter might fall through.

"County Chief, what’s wrong? The Governor doesn’t support our work?"

"No, the Governor fully supports our work and has ordered me to investigate thoroughly! No matter who is involved, there will be no leniency!"

"Then why is the County Chief so troubled?"

Shen Manwen let out a sigh.

"On the political and legal front, I have some connections and can get forensic experts from the provincial department to come over for a re-examination."

"As long as the special investigation group finds something amiss, the provincial department will send a team immediately."

"But for the publicity side, I have absolutely no contacts."

"The provincial committee’s propaganda department is tightly controlled by Secretary Zhao, and even the Governor can’t intervene. How can we deal with the media?"

Cheng Yuan’s brow twitched, as he had no way to deal with issues concerning forensic experts.

However, when it came to the publicity department, he might have a breakthrough!

"County Chief, I have a few acquaintances at the TV station. Let me look into this matter. You go ahead and arrange for the forensic experts from the provincial office!"

"Alright, let’s act separately."

Cheng Yuan bid farewell to Shen Manwen and hurried out of the county government building, hailed a taxi, and headed straight for the TV station.

Cheng Yuan casually walked into the television building and headed straight for the reception desk.

The receptionist asked in a formulaic manner, "Hello, do you have an appointment?"

Cheng Yuan shook his head lightly.

"I am Cheng Yuan, Deputy Director of the County Government Office, here for important business with Director Fang. What floor is Director Fang’s office?"

The receptionist’s demeanor immediately became more respectful.

"Director Cheng, hello. The Director’s office is on the floor below the top. I will notify them right now."

Cheng Yuan nodded and took the elevator directly to the floor below the top.

Cheng Yuan was entitled to treatment comparable to a full department-level official, while Fang Xue, as the head of Ji County TV station, was only a deputy department-level official.

Facing the ’inspection’ by a superior, Fang Xue had to take it seriously.

After receiving the report from below, Fang Xue stepped out of her office and waited in front of the elevator.

With a ding, the elevator door opened.

Cheng Yuan was pleasantly surprised, seeing a very elegant and poised young woman.

This young woman was dressed in Chanel professional attire, with her hair done up high and styled exquisitely, wearing elegant light makeup. Everything about her, from the way she moved to her posture, radiated an intense scholarly aura.

She was like a young miss from a family of scholars.

This young woman was none other than the head of Ji County TV station—Fang Xue.

The smile on Fang Xue’s face was very warm and welcoming as she graciously nodded slightly to Cheng Yuan.

"Director Cheng, hello. A warm welcome to you for inspecting our TV station’s work."

Cheng Yuan’s pupils flickered slightly, had he not seen remarks about Fang Xue in Ma Guorong’s notebook.

He would never have imagined that this woman, who exuded intelligence and elegance to her very core, was Liu Song’s mistress!

Cheng Yuan extended his hand, greeting Fang Xue with gentlemanly manners.

"Director Fang, we are both at the deputy department level, so there’s no talk of inspections. I just need a little help with something."

A flash of confusion crossed Fang Xue’s eyes.

Cheng Yuan was Shen Manwen’s man, while she was clearly Liu Song’s. They were not on the same side, so why would Cheng Yuan seek her out?

"Director Cheng, let’s talk in my office, shall we?"

"Sure."

Under Fang Xue’s lead, Cheng Yuan entered the Director’s office.

The Director’s office was decorated in traditional Chinese style, with several pieces of calligraphy hanging on the wall and a complete set of brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone on the desk, resembling the study of an ancient scholar, with a strong literary atmosphere.

It matched perfectly with Fang Xue’s intellectual elegance.

"Director Fang has quite the taste for the arts. Your calligraphy is quite impressive, showing a master’s flair."

"You flatter me, Director Cheng. It’s just a casual hobby, nothing noteworthy. Please, this way."

Cheng Yuan followed Fang Xue to the tea table and sat down.

To his surprise, Fang Xue’s tea serving skills were exceptional!

It was an absolute delight!

Cheng Yuan couldn’t help but feel a twinge of regret; such a beautiful, intellectual, and elegant lady had unfortunately fallen into the clutches of the likes of Liu Song!

Cheng Yuan sipped the tea, and the rich aroma instantly spread throughout.

Even for someone like him, who was not well-versed in tea, he couldn’t help but give a thumbs up.

"Beautiful tea and an even more beautiful server! Director Fang truly lives up to the reputation as the leading lady of intellect in Ji County!"

Fang Xue said indifferently, "Those are just empty titles. Director Cheng, what brings you here today?"

Cheng Yuan went straight to the point.

"Director Fang, I know you have contacts at Qin Island TV and the provincial capital’s TV station. Could you introduce me to a reliable reporter?"

Fang Xue immediately understood Cheng Yuan’s intention.

It was most likely about that car accident at the entrance of the school!

Fang Xue’s heart started racing uncontrollably. This was a perfect opportunity to break free from Liu Song’s grasp!

But when the words reached her lips, they came out somewhat coldly.

"I’m sorry, Director Cheng, but I’m afraid I don’t hold enough sway to have contacts at Qin Island TV or the provincial TV station that could help you."

Cheng Yuan’s gaze suddenly became aggressively piercing.

"Director Fang, I’m afraid you must help me with this!"
