In the world of officialdom,
The higher one’s position, the more protection they received from the Power of the Nation’s Fate.
Generally, officials rarely suffered from sudden serious illnesses; their fates were strong.
Although Chen Guoan had been seriously ill before, he encountered Xu Wendong, which seed like a destined event.
Though Shen Wenhui had a sudden stroke and nearly died,
It was also related to the Power of the Nation’s Fate.
If not for its protection, he would have surely perished.
"Can I take a look at that mory?" Xu Wendong asked.
Shen Wenhui incredulously said, "mories can be viewed?"
"Of course, provided you don’t resist." Xu Wendong, now a cultivator at the Qi Refining Stage Level Six, couldn’t forcibly read others’ mories.
But if he received soone’s consent, he could indeed view their mories.
At that mont,
Shen Wenhui realized Xu Wendong might not be an ordinary person. He agreed to Xu Wendong’s proposal, then closed his eyes and relaxed as instructed by Xu Wendong.
Next,
He felt a slight coolness at the center of his forehead.
Then a ridiculous feeling surged into his heart.
It was as if a deity had entered his mind, peeping into his mories.
This was a real yet absurd feeling, causing Shen Wenhui intense unease.
It was as though in front of this deity, he had no secrets at all.
anwhile,
Xu Wendong also read the mory before Shen Wenhui’s incident.
He saw the ghostly woman in red.
He also saw a world of dark crimson.
He saw the corpses hanging before his eyes.
Calling them corpses wasn’t quite right.
To be precise, they were spirits.
They were suspended there, all with expressions of pain and ferocity.
Beneath them lay an endless Blood Sea.
It looked shocking, truly the Mortal Purgatory Shen Wenhui had ntioned.
Sohow,
The background seed sowhat familiar to him.
As if he’d seen it sowhere before, yet he couldn’t recall where.
Monts later,
He withdrew his Soul Force, ending the viewing of Shen Wenhui’s mories.
"Director Shen, did you notice one thing?" Xu Wendong said in a low voice: "Including that ghost woman, there were eighty-three bodies."
Shen Wenhui asked wearily, "Is there a problem with that?"
"Not only is there a problem, but it’s a major one." Xu Wendong’s eyes were solemn: "Think back to Mo Village ten years ago, how many people died in that village overnight?"
Hiss!
Shen Wenhui gasped sharply, feeling a tingling at the nape of his neck.
Few people knew about the Mo Village case, but he had heard so things.
Thinking carefully,
Didn’t eighty-three people die in Mo Village at that ti?
His mind was a muddled chaos.
It was the kind of cluelessness that left him with no direction.
Xu Wendong asked, "Director Shen, before the incident, did you offend anyone?"
Shen Wenhui: "No!"
Xu Wendong continued, "Then did you make a series of plans for Haicheng?"
"There were so, indeed." Shen Wenhui recalled: "Last year, I proposed five plans, among which..."
As he reached this point, a shiver ran through him, his eyes showing undisguisable fear: "I... I know who I offended, but it absolutely shouldn’t be him."
Xu Wendong quickly asked, "Who are you referring to?"
Shen Wenhui nervously swallowed: "Jiang Yuanbo!"
Xu Wendong couldn’t help but frown.
Previously, Chen Guoan had also cautioned him to be wary of Jiang Yuanbo.
Now Shen Wenhui ntioned Jiang Yuanbo as well.
What secrets did this Vice Mayor Jiang hold?
Shen Wenhui continued: "Before my incident, I had proposed building a seawater power station, which would save energy and be a good deed benefiting the country and its people."
Xu Wendong asked, "You weren’t planning to build the seawater power station in Jiang Family Village, were you?"
Shen Wenhui retorted, "Is there any place in Haicheng more suitable for building a seawater power station than Jiang Family Village?"
"Indeed there isn’t." Though Xu Wendong had just arrived in Haicheng and hadn’t yet visited the coastal fishing villages, he had surveyed those villages’ locations on the map.
Truth be told,
No village was more suitable for constructing a seawater power station than Jiang Family Village.
After all, Jiang Family Village was situated beyond the mountains, so even constructing a seawater power station there wouldn’t impact the environnt.
He lit a cigarette and shared his view: "Even if you wanted to build a seawater power station in Jiang Family Village, even if it was the Vice Mayor’s hotown, he couldn’t bear a grudge over such a matter!"
"For instance, if I were him, I would definitely take the lead in carrying out such a project. For anyone in the system, such a beneficial deed is a stepping stone to climb higher."
Shen Wenhui’s face turned sallow: "So, as I said earlier, it absolutely couldn’t be him."
"Director Shen, until this matter is thoroughly investigated, you’ll have to pretend to be ill!" Xu Wendong offered his opinion: "I fear if the person behind the scenes learns of your recovery, it might work against you!"
Shen Wenhui asked anxiously, "Are you really going to investigate this matter?"
Xu Wendong grinned: "I’ve been trying to understand Haicheng, but I hadn’t found a suitable entry point. However, constructing a seawater power station is a perfect opportunity!"
Shen Wenhui sighed: "I hope you’ll seriously consider this matter. I don’t want you taking risks!"
He had already realized Xu Wendong wasn’t an ordinary person.
But,
What he experienced couldn’t be explained by science!
A faint, intriguing smile appeared on Xu Wendong’s lips: "It’s no big deal."
After dinner,
Shen Shiwu drove Xu Wendong and Liu Shii back to the civil servant residential area, then returned to the sanatorium.
Xu Wendong and Liu Shii went to their respective hos.
There was no choice.
They were currently residing in the civil servant complex, and if they returned together to his ho, it would inevitably fuel speculation.
Not long after he finished his shower, Liu Shii sneaked upstairs through the fire escape and opened the door to Xu Wendong’s apartnt.
Then she eagerly climbed onto the bed, for which Xu Wendong had spent over eighty thousand yuan, and began their shaless tryst.
She was deeply addicted to the pleasure Xu Wendong brought, a feeling that made her lost in it, wanting to be with him every mont.
With Xu Wendong, she unleashed her feminine nature, embodying wantonness to its fullest, like a charming enchantress, even captivating Xu Wendong.
The ecstasy of a married woman’s pleasure was indeed boundless and indescribable.
Afterward,
She lay weakly on the bed, while Xu Wendong sat at the desk drafting a proposal.
He intended to restart the seawater power station project.
Yes.
In fact, he had reviewed the proposals during Shen Wenhui’s tenure, but the seawater power station project was missing.
It was evident that his sudden stroke had a direct connection to this project.
What Xu Wendong needed to do was simple.
Restart the project, and then wait for trouble to manifest.
