That night, Zeng Pengchao, accompanied by his secretary, quietly arrived at Hong Ke’s ho.
Hong Ke was already very nervous. After seeing Zeng Pengchao, her face turned pale with fright.
After all, it was the first ti she faced such a high-level leader.
Combined with the guilt of her actions, her heart was filled with panic.
With Chen Bin’s assistance, Zeng Pengchao finally printed out the materials to report Lan Hui in front of Hong Ke.
After signing and pressing her handprint on the docunts, Hong Ke vowed confidently.
"Secretary Zeng, I assure you, everything I said is true. If there’s even a single error, I’m willing to face the consequences."
Nodding slightly, Zeng Pengchao turned to Chen Bin.
"Walk out."
Inside the elevator, Zeng Pengchao asked, "How’s the preparation for the gala coming along?"
"It’s in the final rehearsal stage. If all goes as planned, it will be a great success."
"This is Yanxi TV Station’s first gala since its establishnt. Make sure you take it seriously. By the way, you’ve been working at the provincial TV station for a while now, write a reflection for . Submit it in three days."
The elevator reached the ground floor, and Zeng Pengchao left with his secretary.
The next morning, after arriving at his office, Zeng Pengchao summoned Kang Kecheng, the deputy secretary of the Provincial Disciplinary Inspection Commission.
He handed over the report materials, complete with Hong Ke’s handprint.
Upon seeing the docunts, Kang Kecheng showed no signs of surprise.
He simply said flatly, "I’ve seen too many similar complaint letters."
"Then why don’t you investigate them?"
"I have investigated, but I couldn’t find anything at all."
"Is it truly impossible to find evidence, or are you just brushing it off?"
Closing his mouth, Kang Kecheng didn’t respond.
Zeng Pengchao continued, "The materials in your hand were written by Hong Ke, the forr director of the advertising departnt at the provincial TV station. This ti, she used her real na to report Lan Hui. Conduct a secret investigation and rember to use trustworthy people."
"Understood. I know what to do."
As undercurrents surged at the provincial TV station, Shen Chengbao was feeling extrely frustrated.
Whenever he visited Yan Hanlu’s ho before, she was always welcoming.
However, recently, her attitude had grown cold.
Shen Chengbao went to her house several tis, but Yan Hanlu wasn’t around.
Whenever he called, she claid she was at a friend’s place.
A couple of tis could be dismissed, but after it happened repeatedly, he sensed sothing suspicious.
From then on, Shen Chengbao started secretly following Yan Hanlu.
Sure enough, three nights later, after work, Yan Hanlu imdiately got into a man’s car.
Shen Chengbao investigated the license plate through his contacts in the traffic police and discovered the car belonged to a businessman nad You Bilin.
At this point, Shen Chengbao was almost certain that Yan Hanlu had betrayed him.
The following noon, when Yan Hanlu returned ho, she was startled by Shen Chengbao sitting on the sofa.
"Oh my God, what’s that expression on your face? You scared to death!"
Shen Chengbao stared at her intensely, his gaze icy cold.
"Where were you?"
"At my friend’s house, of course! Where else would I be?"
As she spoke, Yan Hanlu casually grabbed so pajamas and walked into the bathroom.
It seed she intended to take a shower.
Shen Chengbao quickly followed her, his face darkening further.
"Oh really? That guy nad You, is he your friend too? Judging by your state, you must’ve just co from a hotel, right?"
These words visibly flustered Yan Hanlu.
She snapped, "Are you following ? We’ve been together for so many years, and you can’t even offer basic trust. You stooped to... Ah!"
Before she could finish speaking, Shen Chengbao slapped her hard across the face.
"Goddammit, I trusted you too much, and you took for a fool. Now you have the nerve to spout this nonsense?!"
His anger erupted violently. Grabbing Yan Hanlu by the hair, he began punching and kicking her.
The two had t at a bar, and after getting involved, Shen Chengbao’s arrangents helped Yan Hanlu join Tianhai City’s song and dance troupe as a singer.
From that mont on, Yan Hanlu’s life trajectory completely changed.
She went from being a nobody to a star.
Moreover, Shen Chengbao had doted on Yan Hanlu in every way.
He bought her a car and a house and gave her spending money every month without fail.
So upon discovering her betrayal, Shen Chengbao’s fury was uncontrollable.
To him, this wasn’t rely about infidelity—it was about Yan Hanlu betraying his wholehearted devotion.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he beca. After knocking Yan Hanlu to the ground, he climbed on top of her and started punching her furiously.
At first, she pleaded for rcy, but eventually, she stopped moving altogether.
Afraid he might have killed her, Shen Chengbao hurriedly took out his phone and called for an ambulance.
Soon after, an ambulance arrived and took Yan Hanlu away.
Even then, Shen Chengbao’s anger was far from subsided.
That night, You Bilin was heading ho after work.
Just as he stopped his car, a group of masked n wearing baseball caps suddenly appeared.
They attacked him brutally with sticks.
Afterward, the group swiftly got into an unlicensed van and drove away.
When You Bilin arrived at the hospital, tests showed he had multiple fractures and wouldn’t recover for at least three to four months.
Yan Hanlu had only been knocked out by Shen Chengbao; her injuries weren’t severe.
Upon learning that You Bilin was hospitalized, she imdiately realized Shen Chengbao was behind it.
She called him directly.
"Shen, you can beat up, but now you’ve gone after my boyfriend. I must’ve been blind to ever choose soone like you."
Since they had already fallen out, Shen Chengbao laughed angrily.
"You whore! If I hadn’t cleaned up your past, you’d still be a prostitute used by everyone! Now you’ve lived the easy life for a few years and dare to talk back to like this?"
"I admit I’m no saint, but what about you? Spending your wife’s money to support another woman. Shen Chengbao, let tell you: because of this, I’ve never had the slightest respect for you!"
"Damn it! Keep talking like that, and I’ll go to the hospital and kill you right now!"
"This is a law-abiding society. Stop throwing the word ’kill’ around. Since you hit , you owe compensation for emotional distress. Prepare 10 million within three days, or else you’ll see what happens!"
"If you kneel down and beg , maybe I’d give you tens of thousands in pocket money. But if you threaten , I won’t even give you a di!"
To Shen Chengbao, Yan Hanlu was simply trying to extort him one last ti.
After all, what could a prostitute possibly do to stir trouble?
"You won’t pay? Alright then, let’s see what happens!"
Indeed, Yan Hanlu was a prostitute, and she certainly loved money.
But she also had her dignity.
Since Shen Chengbao looked down on her so much, she decided to make a scene.
She wanted the old bastard to see what happens when you cross her!
