The Strongest Master Venturing Urban-Chapter 383: Do You Dare to Get Close to Miss Ben?

Zhao Xinmei held Chen Bin tightly, her delicate body convulsing for over ten seconds before collapsing powerlessly onto the bed.

Looking at her dazed expression, Chen Bin had no intention of letting her off so easily.

After taking a deep breath, he slowly began to move again.

Soon enough, as friction deepened in Yugou, the "dragon" hardened once more.

Immediately after, the two began another round of battle.

It wasn’t until the early hours of the morning when Chen Bin had spent all his reserves completely that he finally relented.

Over the next week, the family of three toured Beihuang County thoroughly.

As the weather grew colder, Chen Bin worried Zhao Xinmei and her daughter might fall ill. Reluctantly, he saw them off.

In December, Dagu City held its annual Two Sessions, attended by Shi Baocong and Gu Kong.

Compared to Shi Baocong, Gu Kong’s thoughts weren’t focused on the meeting at all.

That evening, under the veil of darkness, he secretly visited Secretary Duan Baijian, the head of Dagu City’s Municipal Committee.

"Why bring something when you’re just coming over?"

After letting Gu Kong into the house, Duan Baijian’s gaze shifted to the bag in the latter’s hand, silently speculating on its contents.

"Secretary Duan, nowadays no one visits empty-handed. I didn’t bring anything fancy, just picked up some fruit."

As he spoke, Gu Kong respectfully handed over the bag.

Upon hearing it was "fruit," Duan Baijian’s face immediately darkened.

Sensing this, Gu Kong quickly opened the bag to reveal its contents.

To Duan Baijian’s surprise, it was bundles of foreign banknotes.

Judging by the feel of it, there were roughly fifty thousand.

If exchanged for Huaxia Coins, it’d easily amount to over three hundred thousand.

Taking the bag, Duan Baijian’s face lit up with a smile.

"County Magistrate Gu, please, have a seat!"

After a brief exchange of small talk, Gu Kong disclosed the true purpose of his visit.

"Shi Baocong will be stepping down after the Spring Festival. I wonder who his successor will be?"

Chuckling, Duan Baijian replied.

"Is there even a question? Of course, it’s you! You’ve worked in Beihuang County for so many years; all your hard work hasn’t gone unnoticed by the Municipal Committee."

Reassured by the response he was hoping for, Gu Kong breathed a sigh of relief.

"Rest assured, Secretary Duan. Once I become secretary of the County Committee, I will work hard and make sure to regularly bring fruit to visit you."

"Do a good job. I have high hopes for you. But until you’re officially appointed, keep a low profile. Avoid making waves; it wouldn’t look good."

"No problem. My best trait is keeping my mouth shut!"

After the holiday break, Chen Bin finally managed to get through to Xu Ruoxuan’s phone.

That’s when he learned that during the last paternity test, Xu Ruoxuan had begged Yuan Qian to alter the results.

In exchange, Yuan Qian demanded Xu Ruoxuan stop seeing Chen Bin.

With Yuan Qian keeping her company this entire time, Xu Ruoxuan hadn’t dared to contact Chen Bin on her own.

Now, with year-end conferences keeping Yuan Qian busy, Xu Ruoxuan seized the chance to secretly call Chen Bin.

Upon understanding the entire sequence of events, Chen Bin was utterly stunned. He now realized that Cai Lixia’s child was indeed his!

After consoling Xu Ruoxuan, Chen Bin immediately reached out to Cai Lixia.

Through their conversation, he learned that she’d already picked a name—Cai Zhucheng.

On the call, Cai Lixia was sobbing uncontrollably.

She said that even though Ye Pei was now imprisoned, she still couldn’t bring herself to divorce him.

She tried filing for divorce in court, but the judge denied it, citing the child was too young.

"Don’t worry. Just focus on living a good life with the child. Once I get back, I’ll take care of you both."

Upon hearing this, hope returned to Cai Lixia’s heart.

Throughout December, Chen Bin dedicated his time to handling matters involving these women.

On the final day of the month, yet another woman showed up unexpectedly!

In his office, Chen Bin was visibly surprised when he saw Liao Ruoli suddenly appear.

"Why are you here?"

Liao Ruoli laughed and said, "What, not happy to see me?"

"Of course not! Sit down; I’ll get you some water."

At those words, Liao Ruoli nodded in satisfaction.

"Good, you still care about me. It was worth coming all this way."

As he handed her the glass of water, Chen Bin’s heart warmed.

He never expected that after relocating to such a remote place, the second person to visit him would be Liao Ruoli.

"What have you been up to lately? Haven’t heard much about you."

With a smug tone, Liao Ruoli scoffed.

"I went abroad to study. Just got back a few days ago and made my way here after tracking you down."

Taking a sip of hot water, she began grumbling again.

"I have to say, this Beihuang County is absolutely terrible. The whole county, only the places where you leaders work are somewhat decent."

"What can you do? This is the poorest region in Yanxi Province."

"It’s not just poor; even the planning is nonsensical..."

At that moment, Liao Ruoli’s professional instincts kicked in, and she began passionately sharing her thoughts.

Chen Bin listened intently, nodding occasionally in agreement.

After finishing, Liao Ruoli poked Chen Bin’s chest.

"Working here must be hard, huh? Do you want to leave?"

"No way! Sure, it’s a bit impoverished here, but it’s peaceful. I barely have to do anything each day. It’s like early retirement."

She poked him again forcefully, raising an eyebrow disdainfully.

"Alright, keep being stubborn. I don’t believe a word of that nonsense you just said!"

"Well then, tell me—what do I need to do to convince you?"

As he spoke, Chen Bin seized her wrist.

She struggled to break free but couldn’t escape his grip.

With a slightly flushed face, she snapped back, "What are you playing at? Trying to take advantage of me now?"

Chen Bin exerted a little force, pulling her onto his lap.

"It’s been so long since we’ve seen each other. Can’t I show you some affection?"

"Hmph! Affection for me? Do you dare?"

"Why wouldn’t I dare?"

Without hesitation, Chen Bin planted a kiss on her delicate cheek.

First stunned, Liao Ruoli quickly shoved him away.

"Get lost! I was joking, and you actually took it seriously!"

"Come on, don’t be mad. I was joking too."

Folding her arms, she said sharply, "Want me to not be mad? Then take me out for dinner tonight."

"No problem!"

That evening after work, Chen Bin took Liao Ruoli to the same restaurant known for its specialty dishes he’d visited earlier.

Unexpectedly, as they walked in, they ran into Hou Haoyu and Wan Yuwei.

"Chairman Chen!"

The two greeted him while sizing up Liao Ruoli.

Especially Wan Yuwei, who stared more intently.

Women tend to instinctively compare themselves to one another.

Not only was Liao Ruoli beautiful, but she also had an air of elegance.

After comparing herself, Wan Yuwei suddenly felt like an ugly duckling.

Soon, a question rose in her heart.

"Could this stunning woman be Chen Bin’s girlfriend?"
