40: Turning the tables

Jiang Yufei seized the opening, grabbed the opportunity, and fiercely scratched Yu Hualin's face with one hand.

Immediately, five long, bloody scratches appeared on Yu Hualin's face.

The fiery pain on his face made Yu Hualin cry out. He instinctively retracted his hand to cover his cheek.

At that moment, Jiang Yufei viciously drove her knee upward, striking Yu Hualin right in his vulnerable spot. He cried out again, tumbling off her and onto the floor, clutching his lower body and beginning to wail.

Jiang Yufei quickly stood up, spat at Yu Hualin lying on the ground, and said through gritted teeth, 'Yu Hualin, you beast in human skin! You actually wanted to force yourself on me?

I'm going to report you and have you sent to jail.'

Yu Hualin, one hand clutching his stomach, pointed at her with the other and said viciously, 'You're finished, you little bitch. How dare you injure me? Don't even think about having an easy time in Yushu County from now on.

I'll definitely make you, this little bitch, pay a painful price.

You failed to seduce me, got angry out of shame, not only slandered me but also injured me. I'll have the police station arrest you and detain you. Just wait and see how I'll deal with you then!'

Jiang Yufei hadn't expected that even at this point, Yu Hualin would have the shamelessness to maliciously turn the tables.

So, she was so furious her face turned ashen. Not knowing how else to curse at Yu Hualin, she stepped forward and viciously kicked him twice before quickly opening the Office door, slipping out, and leaving.

However, Yu Hualin's words also reminded her. She knew Heping Town was Yu Hualin's territory. If she stayed in Heping Town and handled this matter step-by-step, there really was a possibility he could turn black into white.

Even in Yushu County, it wasn't necessarily safe. She knew full well that Yu Hualin and Yu Guodong had a deep relationship. Although her cousin's aunt was the Organization Minister, she didn't have the ability to challenge Yu Guodong.

So, she decided to leave Heping Town immediately and go directly back to the City Level, not giving Yu Hualin the slightest opportunity. She absolutely could not stay here and suffer an immediate loss.

Thinking of this, she took out her phone, stopped the recording, saved the audio file, and then called Lin Zifeng.

In Heping Town, aside from Lin Zifeng, she dared not trust anyone.

The call was answered quickly. Before Lin Zifeng could even speak, Jiang Yufei said in a tearful voice, 'Zifeng, something urgent has happened. Can you accompany me to the City Level right now?'

Hearing Jiang Yufei's tone and recalling that her family was in the City Level, Lin Zifeng thought something had happened at Jiang Yufei's home!

So, without asking further, he quickly said, 'Yufei, don't panic. I'll call the Office to report my absence, then I'll accompany you to the City Level.'

'Then hurry up, Zifeng. I'll wait for you outside the compound, in front of the post Office by the roadside.'

Lin Zifeng agreed and hung up the phone.

While calling the Office, he walked out of his own Office.

He called out for Wang Zhongyu, told him to get the driver Li Qiang, and continued his phone call as he headed downstairs.

Once downstairs, the three of them got into the car together. Li Qiang drove, leaving the government compound.

Wang Zhongyu turned his head and asked Lin Zifeng, who had just hung up the phone, 'Chief, where are we going?'

'First, to the town post Office to pick up Committee Member Jiang. We're going to the City Level with her. Something might have happened at her family's place.'

As he spoke, Li Qiang had already spotted Jiang Yufei standing near the post Office. He drove over and stopped beside her.

Jiang Yufei opened the rear door and sat beside him.

Seeing Jiang Yufei's somewhat disheveled hair and the wrinkled parts of her clothing, he asked with confusion, 'What happened to you, Committee Member Jiang?'

With Wang Zhongyu and Li Qiang present, he reverted to the formal address.

'Chief, I'll explain in detail once we reach the City Level. First, listen to this.'

As she spoke, she handed him the earphones plugged into her phone, gesturing with her eyes for him to put them on.

Lin Zifeng did as instructed. Jiang Yufei pressed the play button on the recording and then added, 'Don't be surprised by anything you hear!'

After saying this, she glanced at the two men sitting in front.

Lin Zifeng understood and nodded, then began listening attentively.

Meanwhile, Yu Hualin had been wailing on the floor for over ten minutes before the pain subsided enough for him to slowly stand up.

Jiang Yufei's hate-filled knee strike had been truly vicious. He was even a little worried she might have permanently damaged him.

He had specifically had his Office renovated with soundproofing materials back then, precisely to indulge in certain hobbies of his.

Just moments ago, he had brazenly said that even if Jiang Yufei screamed her lungs out, no one would hear!

Who would have thought, she hadn't screamed her lungs out, but he himself had been groaning and shouting on the floor for quite a while, and indeed, no one had heard.

Qian Ke, not wanting to disturb him, hadn't come to check either.

Seeing in the mirror that half his face was scratched up, with five bloody marks clearly visible, his anger flared. He picked up his phone and called Qian Ke.

As soon as the call connected, he yelled into the phone, 'Where the hell have you been? Be in front of me within one minute.'

Not long after, Qian Ke pushed the door open and quickly walked in.

Seeing Yu Hualin's state, he was taken aback for a moment, then quickly put on a concerned expression and asked, 'Secretary, what happened to you?'

'What do you think happened? It's all that Jiang Yufei's doing!

I called Jiang Yufei over to discuss the town's publicity work. Who knew she would take the opportunity to seduce me? After I sternly rejected her, she became angry out of shame.

Not only did she turn around and slander me, saying I tried to force myself on her, but she also injured me.'

Hearing what Yu Hualin said, Qian Ke thought to himself, who would believe such nonsense?

A beautiful young woman like her, already a substantive deputy section level Cadre at a young age, would seduce a pot-bellied middle-aged man like you?

Seems like you tried to force yourself on her, not only failed, but got your face scratched up!

For some reason, Qian Ke felt a faint sense of satisfaction inside.

Perhaps even the worst person doesn't want to see a good girl they can't have be ruined by someone like Yu Hualin.

Although Qian Ke thought this, he didn't dare show it in the slightest. He quickly chimed in, 'This Committee Member Jiang has really gone too far.

'Secretary, let's go to the hospital to treat those wounds first!'

'Are you trying to make me lose even more face? Who has time for such trivial matters now? Call Police Station Chief Jiang Shenzhi immediately and tell him to come to my Office.

'Jiang Yufei failed to seduce me, then tried to slander me and injured me. She must be dealt with severely.'

Yu Hualin said viciously.

'Secretary, I saw Committee Member Jiang quickly walking towards the main gate downstairs earlier. Not long after, the Chief also left by car.'

Qian Ke didn't dare hide this and quickly reported.
