The Strongest Master Venturing Urban

Chapter 992 994: Tell Me, What the Hell Happened?!

After reading the text message, Chen Bin comforted Wen Wan not to be afraid.He first called Mu Yun and asked her to secretly send Wen Wan away.

Then, he instructed someone to investigate based on the message number.

Feedback arrived that afternoon.

The person who sent the harassing message to Wen Wan is Zhou Yunfeng, the son of Zhou Datian.

If it were someone else, Chen Bin would just deal with them.

But being fellow deputy ministers, he had to consider too many factors.

Offending Zhou Datian easily could likely bring about retaliation.

If caught in a conflict then, he might not be able to focus all his energy on work.

Additionally, the investigation showed that Zhou Yunfeng is already engaged to Ju Jun's second daughter.

This inevitably reminded Chen Bin that Wu Xiao had warned before that Ju Jun takes Zhou Datian's opinions very seriously.

Turns out, they are also in-laws!

Taking a deep breath, Chen Bin felt increasingly that he shouldn't act rashly.

Offending Zhou Datian would be akin to offending Ju Jun, so how could he continue in the Security Department in the future?

But if Zhou Yunfeng wasn't dealt with, Wen Wan would be harassed continuously.

What should he do?

After some careful deliberation, Chen Bin suddenly had an idea.

After sharing the plan with Wen Wan, he started to arrange other matters.

That evening, Wen Wan sent a message to Zhou Yunfeng.

"I'm going to Tianhe for a business trip in a couple of days. If you want to meet me, we can arrange to meet somewhere then."

Zhou Yunfeng appeared very excited upon seeing it and immediately dialed back.

After confirming it was Wen Wan's voice, he was completely at ease.

Zhou Yunfeng secretly guessed that Wen Wan wanted to meet him in Tianhe probably to avoid being found out in the Imperial Capital.

But that's also fine—it can be a trip to Tianhe disguised as tourism.

Being able to sleep with a domestic popular actress, this trip is definitely a sure-win.

Due to his special identity, Zhou Yunfeng even brought along two bodyguards when going to Tianhe.

However, what he absolutely did not expect was that just as the three got out of the taxi at Tianhe Hotel's entrance, a runaway car suddenly crashed over from afar.

The two bodyguards agilely turned and dodged, but Zhou Yunfeng got hit directly without deviation.

After the ambulance took him away, the bodyguards immediately informed Zhou Yunfeng's mother, Gao Molly, of the situation.

Gao Molly was utterly shocked and immediately flew to Tianhe with Zhou Datian.

Seeing Zhou Yunfeng lying on the hospital bed, her nose sore, tears streamed down.

Upon learning that Zhou Yunfeng's condition was very serious, with his left leg possibly needing amputation, she fainted on the spot.

Zhou Datian dared not delay and immediately called for several of the best orthopedic doctors from Imperial City.

Yet, after discussions, the experts ultimately decided that amputation was necessary.

Receiving this news, Zhou Datian went into a rage.

He grabbed a bodyguard by the collar harshly and questioned.

"Tell me, what the hell happened?!"

The person dared not hide anything and revealed Zhou Yunfeng's main purpose for going to Tianhe.

Zhou Datian's face turned dark instantly, and he roared from the depths of his throat.

"Damn, paying such a heavy price for an actress, useless waste!"

Meanwhile, Chen Bin received news from Cheng Zhuang.

"Zhou Yunfeng's left leg is ruined; he'll be a cripple for life."

Originally, he just wanted Zhou Yunfeng slightly injured, lying in the hospital for a few days to calm down.

Unexpectedly, the outcome turned out to be so severe.

But since it's already like this, it's hard to pursue anything further.

The reason Chen Bin figured out how to get Zhou Yunfeng to Tianhe was mainly because he felt the Imperial Capital belonged to Zhou Datian's sphere of influence, making action very dangerous there.

Tianhe was not only far from the Imperial Capital but also had Cheng Zhuang in charge.

Even if Zhou Yunfeng was crippled, it would be easier to manage.

Zhou Datian remained depressed after his son's injury and, after some thinking, returned to the Imperial Capital and told Ju Jun everything.

Ju Jun was very surprised upon hearing, but it wasn't exceedingly hard to accept.

Actually, Ju Jun understood Zhou Yunfeng very well and intrinsically looked down on this prospective son-in-law.

His daughter was also unwilling to marry Zhou Yunfeng.

The two families were primarily engaged because Ju Jun believed Zhou Datian had great upward mobility.

If he was to be transferred, with Zhou Datian's qualifications, he had the highest chance of succeeding the position of Head of Security Department.

Now that Zhou Yunfeng became crippled, the marriage alliance had to be reevaluated.

Zhou Datian obviously saw the concern on Ju Jun's face and took the initiative to speak.

"If you want to annul the engagement, you can do it anytime."

He found it tough to utter this sentence but had to face these realistic issues.

"I can't decide this matter; let's discuss it later."

Actually, Ju Jun wanted to agree directly, but doing so would seem very cold-hearted.

Intending to let the matter sit on his daughter's shoulders in a few days, making it acceptable for both parties.

Just as Zhou Datian left Ju Jun's office, he encountered Chen Bin head-on.

Chen Bin immediately greeted him, "Minister Zhou!"

Zhou Datian said nothing, only forcing a slight smile.

Watching Zhou Datian's hurriedly departing figure, Chen Bin's expression remained calm, as if nothing had happened.

Time passed quickly, and after entering November, temperatures began to drop sharply.

The once-peaceful Imperial Capital began to experience undercurrents and major events followed one after another.

At the beginning of the month, Liao Jiangming was appointed as a Standing Committee Member of the Imperial City's Party Committee and Secretary for Political and Legal Affairs.

Receiving this happy news, Chen Bin immediately held a banquet at Imperial Capital No.1 to celebrate.

"Congratulations to Secretary Liao on advancing another step in your political career. I believe it won't be long before you're governing your own faction."

Liao Jiangming raised his glass and clinked it with Chen Bin, "Cheers to your kind words! By the way, how are things going at your university job?"

Chen Bin drank his glass empty and shook his head with a smile.

"It's just so-so. Despite us having the same rank, the authority in our hands differs vastly."

"It's okay; you're still young. Hone your skills on different posts, and you'll definitely accumulate and grow."

Nodding, Chen Bin proactively changed topics.

"Your entry into the Standing Committee must have been a storm, right?"

"Actually, no! The Imperial City is unlike anywhere else; the contention is not as intense. No one dares to make a big move, worrying about no turning back."

"That's true indeed."

In reality, many things in the officialdom are exchanges of power; the higher-ups especially don't want to tear things apart.

The two didn't chat for long, when a knock suddenly came on the door—it was Zhang Zixuan.

Upon seeing the club's gold card in her hand, Chen Bin pointed at Liao Jiangming.

"This here is Boss Liao; you can give the card to him."

Zhang Zixuan immediately went to Liao Jiangming's side, placing the gold card and a business card on the table.

With a smile, she said, "Hello Boss Liao, I'm Zhang Zixuan, the club's general manager. I hope you'll visit frequently in the future. If ever you need anything from me, feel free to contact me anytime."

Liao Jiangming looked at the gold card and business card on the table, appearing slightly confused.

"This is...?"

Chen Bin immediately explained, "I have a great relationship with the club's big boss, and often come over for meals. The environment here is nice, and most importantly, it's absolutely safe, with no issues at all."

"This... doesn't seem quite right?"

"There's nothing wrong with it; between us, there's no need to be polite."

"Alright, then I'll respectfully accept your offer."

Seeing Liao Jiangming take the gold card and business card, Chen Bin's lips curled slightly, and his gaze began to deepen...
