"Hahaha, it seems you've put a lot of thought into me."

Jiang Chuo was not ashamed but proud, and he laughed out loud.

"Governor Jiang, if you're just here to show off your tricks, there's no need. I've been mentally prepared for a long time. If you don't take me down today, I'll definitely counterattack."

After speaking.

Chen Fang stood up.

Jiang Chuo waved his hand again and said, "Chen Fang, don't be in such a hurry. You're not like your father. Your father had a very calm demeanor, even when he died, his face was very peaceful..."

What does this mean?

Is this blatant provocation?

Chen Fang's blood boiled.

He wished he could kill Jiang Chuo right there.

But Chen Fang knew that this was the lowest and most ineffective method.

It wasn't worth taking the fall for someone like Jiang Chuo.

"From the look in your eyes, you seem to want to strangle me."

Jiang Chuo asked with a smile.

Chen Fang smiled calmly.

He said, "Indeed, I have such a thought. But you know, I won't do that. I'm not as petty as you; I'll defeat you openly in the political arena."

"With just you? Sometimes I really don't understand where your confidence comes from. Do you think those little tricks from Yong'an Province will still work? Chen Fang, you're too naive. If I wasn't at a crucial juncture back then, I would have finished you off long ago. Now look at me, I'm not only back, but this time, I've become the Governor."

"So what?"

Chen Fang asked.

Jiang Chuo suddenly turned serious.

Said, "Right now, you're just a piece of meat on the chopping board. I can cut you whenever and however I want. I can spare you, or I can kill you. The key is your attitude."

"Attitude? What attitude? Do you mean I should kneel here and beg for mercy?"

"Hahaha, what is mercy worth? If it was just about begging for mercy, would I bother so much?"

With that.

He paused for a moment.

Looked directly into Chen Fang's eyes.

Said word by word, "When Tan Yandong died, did he leave you a notebook? Hand over that notebook, and the issue with Liu Zhenping will disappear as if nothing happened. I guarantee it won't affect you."

Notebook?

Upon hearing these three words.

Chen Fang felt a chill in his heart.

He had been able to formally enter the political arena thanks to that notebook.

However, since leaving Changming County, the notebook had lost its value.

He almost never looked at it again.

It only recorded the petty scheming of those officials in Changming County. He had studied it thoroughly.

What does it have to do with Jiang Chuo now?

Back in Yong'an Province, Jiang Chuo had tried more than once to get hold of this notebook. Why is he still fixated on it even now that he's left Yong'an Province and become Governor?

It's not normal!

Could it be that the notebook contains something unfavorable to Jiang Chuo?

Something so significant that even the current Jiang Chuo finds it a major threat?

What could it be?

Chen Fang's mind kept spinning.

"How about it? It's a simple deal, right? That notebook shouldn't have much use for you."

Jiang Chuo asked again.

Chen Fang smiled.

Said, "Governor Jiang, I seem to have answered this question back then, and didn't you have Zhang Cheng probe me back in the day? If this notebook were indeed in my possession, you should have gotten it by now. Why wait until now?"

With a bang.

Jiang Chuo slammed his palm on the table.

It startled the car door to open.

Hou Liangping poked his head in.

Seeing there was nothing amiss, he quietly closed the door again.

"Chen Fang, don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. Do you really think that I wouldn't dare touch you because of that notebook? You're wrong. Even if I don't get it, I won't let it see the light of day."

Jiang Chuo shouted sternly.

Chen Fang exhaled deeply.

Said, "Governor Jiang, then I wish you success."

"Chen Fang, you're courting death!"

Jiang Chuo roared as he saw Chen Fang preparing to turn away.

Pointed at him and shouted.

Chen Fang snorted, "What fear is there in death?"

After saying that.

He opened the car door and got out directly.

"Comrade Chen Fang!"

After taking a few steps forward.

Hou Liangping suddenly shouted.

Chen Fang turned and asked, "Is there anything?"

"Mayor Chen has been promising from a young age, reaching your current position in your thirties. With just the handover of that notebook, you can rise to even greater heights. Why not do it?"

"It seems that your Hou Family is also very interested in that notebook. What exactly is inside?"

Chen Fang asked.

Hou Liangping smiled slightly.

Said, "The Hou Family isn't interested, but the leadership is."

"That's not the answer I see in your eyes."

After Chen Fang said that.

He turned and left.

Hou Liangping was so angry he was trembling all over.

At this moment.

Jiang Chuo also got out of the car.

Asked Hou Liangping, "What should we do next?"

A shadowy look flashed in Hou Liangping's eyes.

Said, "Since that's the case, let's control him first. Once he's in our hands, we'll handle him as we please. Proceed with the original plan."

Jiang Chuo nodded.

Mumbled, "Chen Fang, you brought this on yourself."

In the auditorium of the City Committee.

The leaders of the recently welcomed four groups have all taken their seats.

There were four seats on the podium.

In the middle were the seats for Jiang Chuo and City Secretary Peng Guoliang.

On each side were Mayor Zhou Nongxin and Political Consultative Conference Chairman Xiong Min.

Chen Fang had just taken his seat downstage.

Immediately, Jiang Chuo followed through the main entrance.

The three leaders who had been seated immediately stood up, greeting Jiang Chuo as he sat down.

The audience was filled with thunderous applause.

It seemed very lively.

Peng Guoliang first spoke, reporting to Jiang Chuo the development of Xiaxiang City in recent years.

Then.

Zhou Nongxin delivered a lengthy government work report.

Just as he was getting into it.

Jiang Chuo suddenly tapped the microphone, making a fufufufu sound.

This interrupted Zhou Nongxin's speech.

Everyone looked at Jiang Chuo.

Jiang Chuo pulled the microphone to him.

Said, "Mayor Zhou, I don't want to hear the pompous clichés. On my way here, I heard something. The City Committee and government need to explain it to me."

Upon hearing this.

Peng Guoliang's heart clenched up.

Many people below were puzzled.

Because the information about Liu Zhenping hadn't actually been spread out yet.

Few people knew the inside story.

Zhou Nongxin, having prepared in advance.

Feigning confusion, asked, "Governor Jiang, what is it?"
