Villain: Starting as a Corrupt Tycoon's Wife

Page 116

Upon seeing the familiar walls and ceiling, Wang Mahua's face turned pale instantly!

"Mr. Gao, I have always respected you very much."

Ye Chen looked into the camera and said calmly, "I've had a dream since I was little: to become an excellent police officer. So when I was very young, I bought a lot of books about detective work, and I've long heard of your name. It's just a pity that I lost the opportunity to become a police officer because of some things that happened to my elders."

"I know the 'Dragon Kingdom Criminal Investigation Manual' that you helped compile by heart. If I were to fight you with equal information, you would definitely have me completely under your control."

Gao Zhenping, the head of the task force, frowned and stared at the advertising screen, a string in his heart suddenly tightening.

He immediately realized what was happening and quickly contacted the men guarding the Wang brothers.

"It's a pity that you wanted to help him protect his treasure, but he's not on your side."

"The luminous pearl in the exhibition hall is just a high-quality fake, only good for fooling laymen like you who know nothing."

Ye Chen put the bead away and blew a kiss to the screen.

"Mr. Wang, I'll accept your treasure. Until we meet again!"

"goodbye!"

The screen went black, and the crowd below was already in an uproar!

Seeing Wang Mahua's legs go limp and he can't even stand up, Gao Zhenping was so angry he wanted to slap him twice!

He had planned everything meticulously, but he never expected that the beads at the exhibition would be fake!

In the past few days, some people online have reported that something is not quite right about the luminous pearl in the exhibition hall, but since it cannot be observed up close and the exhibition is held during the daytime, no one has really noticed anything amiss.

"It's all over, everything is over..."

Wang Mahua slumped to the ground, her eyes lifeless, repeating the same words over and over.

A voice came through Team Leader Gao's earpiece.

"Boss, we've caught the person who played the video. It's the employee on duty inside the building. He's a fanatical follower of Ye Chen, and the video he played was pre-recorded, so..."

Therefore, even if they went to Wang Mahua's house now, they would only find it empty, because Ye Chen had already left.

"Where did he get this video?"

"It was just sent to him by Ye Chen, but it was sent to him using a woman's account. I've taken a screenshot and sent it to you."

"woman?"

Gao Zhenping looked at Wang Mahua on the ground, opened his phone's chat interface, and showed the other party the account information: "Do you know her?"

"It's...it's Shi Cuihua."

"What's your relationship with me?"

"She is my... my little girlfriend."

Team Leader Gao didn't concern himself with his personal affairs. Now that the luminous pearls here were confirmed to be fake, he personally led a team to the residence where Gao Zhenping had hidden the luminous pearls.

This is a rather ordinary residential area, with property management and security that are practically non-existent. No one would have imagined that Wang Mahua would hide a luminous pearl worth hundreds of millions of yuan here!

The tall male team member kicked open the door and found Shi Cuihua, who had been knocked unconscious and tied up, in the bedroom.

Now that things have come to this, the task force can only determine where Ye Chen fled to based on the traces he left behind.

But all of them were furious, because despite their heavy encirclement, Ye Chen still managed to steal the treasure!

Inside an ordinary house, a young man looked at the beads in his hand and smiled disdainfully.

What others treasure is worthless in his eyes.

He enjoyed the thrill of stealing the treasure, not the treasure itself.

He gripped the luminous pearl tightly in his hand, then smashed it into powder with force!

Now, no one will know the whereabouts of the luminous pearl anymore, because it no longer exists in this world...

Chapter 189 A Joyful Christmas Night (Part 1)

12 month 24 day.

Tomorrow is Christmas Day in the West, and tonight is their night of reunion, also known as Christmas Eve.

The women in the manor were busy decorating it, and it was beautifully arranged inside and out.

Even the old locust tree in the yard was decorated like a Christmas tree.

A car stopped outside the manor, and the driver's side window rolled down, revealing Liang Man's elegant and capable face.

Upon seeing that it was him, Jiang Meng and the others immediately let them pass.

After the car came to a stop, An Xin and Liang Man, who looked somewhat haggard, got out.

The operation ended in failure, but the fault lay not with them, but with Wang Mahua. Had he not tried to settle the matter privately while also trying to cover it up, the luminous pearl would never have been stolen under the protection of the special task force.

Gao Zhenping took all the blame upon himself, facing the anger of his superiors and the accusations of the public alone. He quietly gave the members of the special task force a break, allowing them to go back and rest for a few days.

Some team members were unwilling to leave, so they followed behind Gao Lao and continued to be responsible for capturing Ye Chen, who had escaped, in an effort to arrest him before his next operation.

Liang Man and An Xin were originally police officers in the capital. This transfer was also Director Cai's way of giving them a chance to "gild their resumes," since they were both beauties that Ling Yun had his eye on.

"Anxin!"

Fang Muqing saw the policewoman from inside the house and immediately ran out with a smile.

Upon getting closer, she spotted Liang Man and added, "This must be Officer Liang, right?"

"Hello." Liang Man didn't recognize Fang Muqing and gave An Xin a questioning look.

"This is Mr. Fang, the general manager of Dingsheng Group."

"Oh~ So it's the legendary third leader."

Liang Man deliberately dragged out her words. The operation had failed, and the two of them were very discouraged. But as police officers, they couldn't let temporary setbacks get them down. They needed to adjust their mindset quickly, which was why they accepted Ling Yun's Christmas Eve invitation to relax.

The women knew in advance that the two women were coming, so they kept quiet about the words "luminous pearl" to avoid upsetting them.

If An Xin and Liang Man knew, they would only smile helplessly; they are not as fragile as women think.

"Officer An, Officer Liang."

Ling Yun came out of the room at some point and greeted the two women on the sofa in the living room.

Seeing that the two of them still wanted to stand up, Ling Yun waved his hand, sat down next to An Xin, and told the maid to bring some food.

"Don't overthink it now that you're here. Just have some fun." Ling Yun acted casually and didn't deliberately avoid mentioning what happened that night. "By the way, how many days off do you guys get this time?"

"Director Cai told us to rest until next Monday before going back to work."

"It's been quite a while~" Ling Yun glanced at his watch. Today was only Wednesday, which was considered a short holiday.

Yue Jia brought over some pastries and gestured for them to try them.

Liang Man readily accepted it, and after taking a bite, her eyes lit up. She exclaimed, "It tastes so good! Did you bake it yourself?"

“Yes.” Ling Yun pulled Yue Jia over and introduced her to the two women. “Her name is Yue Jia. She used to be the executive chef at a five-star hotel. Now she’s my personal chef.”

An Xin searched for her target among the women: "I remember you had a bodyguard who was a great cook, where is she?"

Anxin felt somewhat apologetic towards Linglan and had been wanting to apologize to her in person, but she could never find the right person.

"I am here."

Ling Lan, dressed in a super short maid dress, walked over and stood gracefully beside Ling Yun.

Before An Xin could speak, Liang Man smiled ambiguously and said, "Everyone says that capitalists lead corrupt and decadent lives. It seems that Chairman Ling has quite a few wild games to play too~"

“It’s consensual, legal and reasonable.” Ling Yun put Yue Jia and Ling Lan in his laps, one in each arm. “Aside from being a bit of a womanizer, I don’t have any other flaws, and I won’t force them.”

The policewomen had no objection to this. From the way they looked at Ling Yun, it was clear that they genuinely liked him and were not being coerced.

Unless, of course, the beauties' acting skills are enough to fool them.

Tonight's feast is also entirely in accordance with the Western Christmas Eve tradition, featuring Christmas turkey, smoked ham, salmon, pudding, and more.

Lingyun didn't celebrate Western holidays much before, but women love romance, and celebrating holidays together is naturally a manifestation of romance, so he would choose some internationally well-known holidays to get together with the beauties.

The purpose wasn't to eat, but to throw a party!

Lingyun bought a small gift for all the women, including the policewomen and the security personnel outside.

After receiving the gifts, everyone's faces showed joy to varying degrees. Then, led by Bai Xin, they lined up to kiss Ling Yun in the order they had received their gifts.

The young man sat there with an imposing air, smiling as he looked at them.

The first to receive the gift was Xiang Yao, who walked towards him with her blonde, wavy hair and voluptuous hips, leaning down slightly to leave her mark on his lips.

"I want it at least twice tonight!"

After saying that, she winked at Ling Yun and then turned to leave.

The second one is Ling Shuang, followed by Liu Ye...

Ling Yun didn't force Liang Man and An Xin to do these things, but Liang Man still took the initiative to go over and kiss Ling Yun.

An Xin immediately felt the pressure and quickly got up, following closely behind, and also kissed Ling Yun.

The women all smiled broadly, and after the farce ended, they began to enjoy their feast.

Because there were so many beauties, they were all sitting scattered around. Later, they got a little tipsy and all of them lay down in all sorts of crooked positions.

Ling Yun drank the most, but for him, alcohol was like drinking plain water; he didn't feel anything no matter how much he drank.

After finishing our meal, Lingyun's grand feast officially began!

An Xin and Liang Man were put in the same room. It wasn't the first time they had showered together, so they didn't shy away from it.

After rinsing, Anxin dried her wet hair, her cheeks flushed a slightly tipsy pink, and picked up her phone to check messages.

She received a lot of phone calls while she was taking a shower.

That person persisted and sent her many more text messages.

"The failure of the operation is not your fault. You can only blame Ye Chen for being too cunning and Wang Mahua for being too beastly."

"Auntie told me you went to a party tonight?"

"Don't drink tonight, go home early, don't worry your parents..."

These sweet nothings had no effect on An Xin. She didn't even finish reading the rest of the messages before deleting them all and then blocking the number.

"Did that person message you again?"

"Ah."

An Xin tossed her phone aside, wrapped herself in a bath towel, and sat on the bed: "I really don't know why he's so insistent?"

Liang Man chuckled, wiping her proud, delicate body with a towel before tossing it into the laundry basket and picking up the hair dryer.

"Who told you to be so good-looking and have such a good personality? If it were me, I'd just throw in a couple of lines of classical Chinese poetry and then insult his mother, and I guarantee he wouldn't dare come near me again."

An Xin chuckled lightly. Knowing that person as she did, she knew that even if she said that, it wouldn't have much effect.

Just then, a slight noise came from outside.

Chapter 190 A Joyful Christmas Night (Part 2)

The soundproofing here is excellent; the sounds coming from outside are very faint, but the two of them still managed to pick them up.

Liang Man had already guessed what was going on, and winked at An Xin: "Did you hear that?"

An Xin hurriedly shook her head and shrank back onto the bed: "I didn't hear anything."

Liang Man smiled and turned on the hair dryer; the noise from the appliance drowned out the sounds outside.

Watching Liang Man's retreating figure, An Xin couldn't help but feel a pang of emotion.

Even her female colleagues probably wouldn't have guessed that "tomboy" Liang Man would have such a great figure.

She was nearly ten centimeters taller than me, with excellent body proportions, long legs, and well-proportioned, firm muscles, with almost no useless excess fat.

Her full, firm buttocks are plump and fleshy, tending towards a peach shape.

Wearing a uniform on weekdays, outsiders are unaware of Liang Man's exaggerated waist-to-hip ratio. Her waist is supple and slender, with an almost perfect curve that extends upwards. Even from behind, the outline of her large breasts can be vaguely seen.

An Xin also has a great figure, but she hopes she can be taller; she would be very satisfied if she could reach 1.72 meters.

Liang Man has short hair, so it didn't take long to dry. By the time she put down the hairdryer, the noise outside had increased considerably.
