The Beauties Help Me Become the No.1 Official

Chapter 15: Chapter 15 His Background is Very Strong

On the pitch-black dirt road, an off-road vehicle finally stopped in front of a village.

"Zhao Jiaqi is right there, why don’t you call Zhu Defu now? That way, you can get his attention," Chen Jiayi suggested, pointing towards a two-story building in the distance, speaking indifferently to Lin Fan.

"I never thought about notifying Zhu Defu. I just felt that since you and she are best friends, and she is in trouble now, naturally she needs your help."

Lin Fan paused, taken aback, as he had never considered that from the beginning to the end.

"But if you hand her over to Zhu Defu, couldn’t it smooth the way for your official career? Don’t you feel tempted at all?"

Chen Jiayi looked at Lin Fan with a curious interest, but he shook his head seriously, "I admit, I’ve lived quite stifled these years, and I’ve wanted to be a top official to raise my spirits, but if it’s by selling out a woman, then forget it—let’s pretend we were never here."

As Lin Fan spoke, he was about to start the car to leave but was stopped by Chen Jiayi grasping his wrist. She smiled, her eyes shimmering with a certain light: "Just kidding with you, I just wanted to see if you were a person blinded by greed. Now it seems I’ve worried unnecessarily. I’ve been best friends with her for over a decade. Some things are better discussed between us alone. You wait for me in the car. If there’s anything, I’ll call you."

After Chen Jiayi finished speaking, she pushed the car door open, got out of the car, and as Lin Fan watched her disappearing figure in the beam of the car lights, he furrowed his brows. He hadn’t expected that what had just happened was a test—what would have happened if he had made the wrong choice? The political scene is indeed fickle, including the women involved, it seems.

Chen Jiayi walked down the village road and entered a house expertly. When she pushed the door open into the living room, she saw Zhao Jiaqi sitting on the couch: putting down the kitchen knife in her hand upon seeing Chen Jiayi.

"With our friendship of over a decade, such a serious matter arises, and you don’t think you should discuss it with me? Or do you not even trust me, thinking that I’d betray you?"
