When Qiu Tu made the phone call just now, he actually wanted to take advantage of Tang Feifei's guilt and feel guilty to fool her.
Then, I'll switch roles with her, climb over her head, and take over the "emperor's throne" in the family!
But... to everyone's surprise, Tang Feifei didn't fall for it at all. She didn't give Qiu Tu any chance and firmly maintained the initiative in this cooperation, and... the relationship between the two of them.
'Winning over this woman will be really difficult...'
Thinking this, Qiu Tu shook his head slightly, not really caring.
After all, if Tang Feifei is a tireless cheetah, then Qiu Tu is a patient hunter.
Even the most agile cheetah will eventually get tired.
As long as the hunter stays close to the cheetah, he will eventually find the right opportunity to capture her!
After all, as time goes by, Qiu Tu and Tang Feifei's strength and position will become increasingly similar.
Qiu Tu's opportunities will increase...
Therefore, Qiu Tu believed that sooner or later he would be able to capture this cheetah...
With that in mind, Qiu Tu composed himself and decided to go find Tang Feifei.
Tang Feifei kept this a secret from him, quietly creating such a big news story. As a business partner, he still needs to explain and let him know.
This includes the future power distribution in the New Territories; how to deal with Yan Chen's old forces; and the two's next goals.
It might even include their future relationship.
Therefore, tonight's conversation between the two will determine Qiu Tu's situation for the next year or two, and his attitude towards Tang Feifei.
He left the office, took Tan Huimin downstairs, got into the car, and headed towards Tang Feifei's villa.
Tan Huimin was driving, and Qiu Tu didn't sit in the back seat, but in the passenger seat, touching Tan Huimin's smooth thighs.
While driving silently, Tan Huimin considerately moved her leg closer to Qiu Tu.
After driving for a while, Tan Huimin finally spoke gently.
She said, “Sir, today I spread the news that Deputy Director Lai was attacked and that Director Yan is likely to be held responsible and resign.”
Qiu Tu leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes to rest, gently stroked Tan Huimin's thigh, and then gave a soft "hmm".
Yan Chen wanted to leave the New Territories City unscathed, but Qiu Tu was not about to give him that chance.
By informing Yu Zhengyi about Yan Chen sending Lai Shun to his death, Qiu Tu was blocking Yan Chen's future; and by having the New Territories City Investigation Department "reorganize" Yan Chen's transfer into a demotion for misconduct, Qiu Tu was also blocking Yan Chen's escape route...
The former would prevent Yan Chen from gaining factional support, while the latter would make it difficult for Yan Chen to remotely control his confidants in the New Territories.
This way, Qiu Tu can deal with him more easily.
While Qiu Tu was thinking this, Tan Huimin whispered, "However, when I was spreading the news, I overheard a secret."
Qiu Tu closed his eyes, touched his thigh, and uttered a soft "Hmm?"
Tan Huimin said softly, "Do you remember the rumors that suddenly circulated in the department a few days ago that Director Yan was disliked by the higher-ups at the shelter? The higher-ups were preparing to take action against him. And promoting you was just the first step?" (Chapter 321)
Qiu Tu nodded.
Tan Huimin said, "I heard that this was secretly released by Director Tang's people."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu paused slightly, then chuckled softly.
He wondered why this news had suddenly spread, and why it had been so detailed and seemingly plausible. Now he realized... it turned out Tang Feifei had been planning this all along.
Qiu Tu speculated that this might be a microcosm of the power struggle between Tang Feifei and Yan Chen.
However, due to a lack of political awareness, I didn't pay much attention...
With that thought in mind, the car slowly moved forward in the darkness. Soon they arrived at Tang Feifei's villa.
Perhaps because of the attack on Lai Shun earlier today, there is much more security and vigilance around Tang Feifei's house than usual.
Guards can be seen standing guard and patrolling everywhere.
Of course, this had no impact on Qiu Tu.
Upon seeing Qiu Tu's car from afar, the guards all stood at attention, saluted, and watched him leave.
They arrived at Tang Feifei's villa without any obstacles. Qiu Tu got out of the car.
The rain in the New Territories hadn't stopped; a light drizzle fell silently in the darkness, shrouding the world in a hazy mist.
The streetlights in front of the villa cast a cold light through the rain, adding to the chill of this late autumn night.
A gentle breeze rustled the leaves, adding a touch of desolation and mystery to the night.
Qiu Tu looked up at the sky. Ever since La Ri Luo lost control of the New Territories, the sky over the New Territories City seemed much clearer.
The azure moon hung in the sky, which was like a piece of glass, and seemed to become exceptionally vivid in the misty drizzle.
After watching the night sky for a while, Qiu Tu said to Tan Huimin, who was standing beside him and supporting him, "Alright, you can go back now. I'll go in by myself."
After speaking, Qiu Tu stepped onto the steps of the villa's awning and then entered the villa's hall.
Hearing the sound of a car starting outside, Qiu Tu also saw Tang Feifei.
Tang Feifei looked beautiful tonight. She wasn't wearing her uniform or her usual tight-fitting yoga clothes; instead, she wore a loose-fitting white leotard that was only tied at the waist with a single belt...
Moreover... this woman doesn't seem to be wearing a bra strap today, and since her clothes are a bit loose, her plump breasts always playfully peek out in a half-circle.
That alluring, half-hidden beauty is, to be honest, very tempting.
Therefore, Qiu Tu looked Tang Feifei's newly unlocked "skin" up and down and gave a fair evaluation: it looks better than the "original skin".
Sure enough, once you reach a certain level of favorability, you'll unlock new skins and new poses.
Thinking this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but compliment, "Very beautiful~ New clothes?"
Tang Feifei hummed in agreement, her wheat-colored face showing a hint of coldness as she said, "They were specially transported from the shelter."
After saying that, she paused for a moment, then added, "I also prepared one for you."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu blinked, just about to ask the purpose of preparing training clothes for himself.
As a result, Tang Feifei immediately offered an explanation. She said, "Your current cultivation level is not low, but your martial arts foundation is still a bit weak."
“I’ve taught you a lot recently and laid a solid foundation for you.”
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but recall the steamy teaching scene between the two of them not long ago.
For no apparent reason, a picture came to mind.
Tang Feifei continued, "Now that you've laid a solid foundation, I'll teach you some basic martial arts techniques and combat skills."
Qiu Tu immediately got it!
The affection level has been reached, and a new CG has been unlocked!
Thinking this, Qiu Tu coughed and said, "Okay. So... now?"
Tang Feifei shook her head, "Let's eat first."
"I bet you have a lot of questions for me, right? And... I also have a gift for you."
Qiu Tu was stunned for a moment.
Goodness, this new storyline and new pose aren't exactly a gift?
Then I'll have to look forward to it!
Thinking this, Qiu Tu followed Tang Feifei to the restaurant.
At this moment, hot food was already laid out in the restaurant, obviously brought out by the maid while Qiu Tu and Tang Feifei were chatting.
Upon arriving at the restaurant, Tang Feifei took a seat at one side of the table first.
Her body lines are smooth and strong, as agile as a cheetah, and every turn and every movement is full of power and beauty.
Add to that her wild, tanned skin. To be honest... she was far more alluring than the table full of delicious food.
Thinking this, Qiu Tu also sat down on the other side of the dining table, opposite Tang Feifei.
Once they were both seated, Tang Feifei gestured with her hand before starting to eat.
Because of the connection, Qiu Tu didn't need to hide anything, so while eating his food, he naturally asked, "When did you start thinking about getting rid of Yan Chen?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Feifei wiped her mouth with a napkin and said coldly, "La Riluo has fallen."
Qiu Tu was surprised and looked up at her. "So early?"
Tang Feifei nodded slightly.
Then she said with a deep gaze, "The fall of an evil god will inevitably free up control of the boundless sea of the mind."
"Whether it's my family or other factions, they all want to gain control of this area."
"Therefore, each company will send experts and elites to conduct research."
"Everyone starts from roughly the same point; the competition comes down to luck, ability, and sustainable research capabilities."
"At this time, if I could become the director of the New Territories City Investigation Department, I would definitely be able to provide more help to my family."
"I don't need to disrupt or interfere with the research of other factions. Providing various forms of assistance to the family within the scope of authority is enough for the family to stay ahead of other factions."
After hearing Tang Feifei's words, Qiu Tu's face showed a hint of realization.
No wonder the "Fengtian Clique" made its move at this time, transferring Yan Chen away and putting Tang Feifei in charge.
It seems that in addition to clearing the way for Tang Feifei, it was also for the "Boundless Heart Sea Development Plan".
However... in that case, the goals of the "Fengtian Clique" and Qiu Tu would clash...
Even worse... the outcome might be.
Thinking this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but tentatively ask, "You wouldn't happen to be the person in charge of this operation in your family, would you?"
Tang Feifei already valued Qiu Tu highly, but... no one would have thought that a second-tier Cataclysm with no background would be eyeing the "Boundless Heart Sea Region Control" just like her.
So she nodded without any hesitation, her eyes sharp as blades, and said with a hint of arrogance, "I'm not only in charge of this operation, but also the family's chosen candidate for 'Regional Controller'."
Qiu Tu:......
Qiu Tu sighed inwardly.
He knew... Murphy's Law would definitely come into play.
The thing he least wanted to happen still happened...
However, this can't be blamed on Tang Feifei. After all, even he knew the importance of controlling the Boundless Heart Sea region, so how could someone with Tang Feifei's powerful background not know?
You can't have all the good things in the world secretly by yourself, can you?
However... although he understood all of this, the thought that he might eventually have to stand on the opposite side from Tang Feifei still made him feel a little worried.
After all, Tang Feifei was his benefactor and the backbone that enabled him to thrive in the Investigation Bureau in the early stages.
Yan Chen's attempts to sow discord hadn't caused any rift between the two, but unexpectedly, they are now going their separate ways because of interests.
Although his mind was racing, Qiu Tu showed no emotion on his face. He smiled, raised his glass, and congratulated the director on his further advancement and increased importance within the faction.
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's congratulations, Tang Feifei politely thanked him, raised her glass to clink glasses with Qiu Tu, and took a small sip.
Then he looked at Qiu Tu and said with a hint of anticipation, "Qiu Tu, I've told you everything."
"So... I need your help."
"My help?" Qiu Tu blinked.
Tang Feifei nodded, then said earnestly, "In the New Territories, you're the person I trust the most."
"Moreover, we've been working together for so long that we know each other quite well."
Qiu Tu nodded slightly.
The two were indeed quite familiar with each other. Tang Feifei knew Qiu Tu's "background," and Qiu Tu knew Tang Feifei's "background."
Tang Feifei continued, "Moreover... I've also witnessed your abilities and wisdom during this time."
"Furthermore, you are the person in the New Territories who knows Laura best. You know many of her secrets."
"I believe that if there is anyone who can help me gain control of the boundless sea of my heart, it can only be you."
At this point, Tang Feifei's gaze hardened. Then, looking at Qiu Tu, she continued, "So, I've also prepared a gift for you. Come on... to 'bribe' you~"
Tang Feifei was clearly in a good mood tonight, so she made a rare little joke.
Tang Feifei put down her chopsticks and clapped her hands.
