By March, the election in Qu City had reached a fever pitch, with the campaign posters of the two assemblyn appearing both offline and online.
On the streets,
their campaign slogans were everywhere.
"Economy, economy, serving the people."
Mr. Zhao waved the flowers in his hand and said:
"Qu City is an ancient city with a rich cultural history, once known as the porcelain capital, and it even has tourist attractions like Celestial Plate Mountain."
"Our economy shouldn't be like this..."
"Only by developing industries and promoting the economy, providing people with more high-paying and quality jobs is the current priority."
"If Qu City can have a complete industrial chain and occupy upstream positions, it can continuously generate economic benefits."
"..."
"Corruption and embezzlent, once discovered, will not be tolerated," Mr. Li said gravely:
"Without a good public security environnt, a clean legal system, and an effective team, everything else is just floating duckweed, re talk."
"Eradicating corruption, maintaining fairness and justice..."
"Now with the reformation of Fuhong Steel Factory, there are too many shady things inside, and the issue of public assets being sold off cheaply hasn't stopped..."
At so point, a light drizzle started outside.
Shi Xin held a glass cup, warming his hands with the hot water inside, watching the campaign ads on TV as he pondered.
"Beep beep..."
The phone notification sounded.
He took out his phone and upon seeing it, his eyes lit up, quickly gathered his things, grabbed a raincoat, and dashed into the rain.
An hour later.
North City Suburbs.
A shady figure appeared under the bridge, holding a briefcase in his arms, occasionally glancing at passing cars.
On his face, anxiety was visible.
"It's really Zhang Yongfeng from Longgang."
Shi Xin hid in the shadows, his eyes flickering:
"What's he doing out here at a ti like this?"
"Screech..."
The sound of tires scraping the ground ca, and a black van with fake plates stopped steadily nearby, and soone stepped out of the car.
"Hmm?"
Shi Xin's eyes showed doubt:
"This person looks familiar."
The next mont.
"Puff!"
"Ah!"
A scream rang out.

In the gymnasium.
Wen Lei was sweating it out on the treadmill.
Her earphones burst with the almost distorted excitent of her colleague's voice.
"You weren't there at the ti. We saw it very clearly, that guy Ho almost knelt on the ground."
"The scene..."
"Couldn't have been more satisfying."
"Kneel?" Wen Lei asked:
"Why kneel?"
"Who knows," the colleague replied:
"The soundproofing glass ant we couldn't hear anything inside, but the chairman forgot to close the curtains, so everything inside was clear to see."
"When that guy Ho ca out, you wouldn't believe how upset he looked, like he'd just lost his mother."
"Haha..."
"At the company, he always uses his power to bully, but this ti Boss Fang Ci taught him a good lesson, which was so payback for you."
"Hmm." Wen Lei didn't express much:
"Did you see Boss Fang Ci?"
"There aren't many people in the company who haven't seen him, but you were unlucky enough to be sent away by that guy Ho," the colleague replied with energy:
"I found out Boss Fang Ci's na is Fang Zheng, not very old, probably a second-generation rich, and supposedly doesn't have a girlfriend."
"That's quite the golden bachelor!"
"Aren't you enamored by looks?" Wen Lei rolled her eyes:
"Boss Fang doesn't seem particularly handso."
"n aren't usually perfect, and anyway... how many handso rich guys have you seen?" the colleague said nonchalantly:
"Besides, Boss Fang isn't one of those guys who are off-putting, he has quite an air about him and is rather pleasant to look at."
"Hmm?"
"How do you know he's not that handso?"
"I've seen him before." Wen Lei's expression remained unchanged:
"So, Fugui Porcelain Factory was bought by Boss Fang for twenty million?"
"Right."
The colleague said:
"It's good enough that soone took over this ss; in another year or two, it might not even sell for twenty million."
"Don't overthink, just let this matter go and focus on working well from now on."
"Focus on working?" Wen Lei gave a bitter smile:
"I'm just afraid there won't be any opportunity."
"Hanging up."
"Bye..."
After hanging up, the smile on Wen Lei's face gradually faded away, she lowered her head to adjust the treadmill, biting her teeth she began to quicken her pace.
Ten minutes later.
She wiped away her sweat and approached the equipnt for working out leg muscles, just about to start when she caught sight of a familiar figure from the corner of her eye.
Fang Zheng?
How did he know she was here?
The thought spun, and a hint of sweetness crept into Wen Lei's heart, only to see Fang Zheng heading straight towards a curvaceous woman.
?
Her face turned black as she twitched her lips slightly.
At so point, high-end gyms started quietly spreading across the city.
Mai Lun Fashion is one of the high-end gyms located in the core comrcial district of Qu City's CBD, with an area large enough to rank in the top three of Qu City, offering swimming, boxing, fitness, and even so entertainnt facilities.
Compared to traditional gyms, this place focuses more on fashion, taking better care of guests' privacy and featuring a high-end ambiance.
The designers not only made the interior decoration very avant-garde but also provided special places for guests to socialize and even have afternoon tea.
Even...
They even hired singers to enhance the atmosphere.
Accordingly, the prices are also expensive, with yearly mberships starting in the thousands, and costs in the tens or hundreds of thousands are common.
Xia Hong,
is a frequent visitor here.
