The Strongest Master Venturing Urban-Chapter 24 Older Sister

In order to avoid awkwardness, Chen Bin quickly changed the topic.

"Director Xu, how’s your back feeling now?"

"Much better compared to before, thank you."

Previously, Xu Ruoxuan thought she was just grasping at straws when she asked Chen Bin to try.

Unexpectedly, his technique turned out to be quite skilled—just two sessions of massage, and her condition had improved significantly.

"Junior, how about you come over every evening to help me massage? I’m often busy during the day."

Seeing Xu Ruoxuan’s somewhat evasive gaze, Chen Bin couldn’t help but wonder if her intentions were less than pure.

Of course, the thought flashed by quickly.

After all, Xu Ruoxuan was already married, and her husband was incredibly capable.

She certainly wouldn’t cross the line.

Thinking of this, Chen Bin replied as usual.

"Sure, as long as it’s not a weekend or holiday, I’ll come over after dinner."

Nodding slightly, Xu Ruoxuan casually asked.

"Your massage skills are exceptional. Besides your grandfather, is there anyone else in your family who’s a doctor?"

"No, after my grandfather passed away a few years ago, I became an orphan."

Hearing this, Xu Ruoxuan froze slightly.

She quickly said, "I’m so sorry, I didn’t know about your family situation."

Chen Bin waved it off calmly.

"It’s fine. I’ve already come to terms with it after all these years."

Seeing this scene, Xu Ruoxuan felt a pang in her heart.

She never imagined that Chen Bin’s life would be so tragic.

If it were her, she might not even have had the courage to keep living.

After a moment of hesitation, she couldn’t help but say.

"Since you don’t have family, how about I be your sister?"

Hearing this, Chen Bin felt a slight tremor in his heart.

Instinctively, he responded, "But you’re so noble, I..."

"We’re all human. There’s no such thing as noble or not noble. From now on, you’re my godbrother."

By all accounts, Xu Ruoxuan’s family background was rather sensitive.

Her parents usually wouldn’t allow her to grow close to others.

As for recognizing someone as a godbrother? That was out of the question.

But Chen Bin was kind-hearted and had helped her so much.

Faced with this orphan who had no one to rely on, Xu Ruoxuan couldn’t stop her overflowing sympathy.

Chen Bin nodded deeply and responded earnestly.

"Sis, I will definitely repay your kindness in the future."

"Little brother, let’s keep our relationship under wraps. Otherwise, there might be unnecessary trouble later on."

"Alright, I’ll listen to you!"

Though he said this aloud, Chen Bin couldn’t help but feel a bit odd inside.

Recognizing this kind of sister... why did it feel a bit like a secret lover?

After saying goodbye to Xu Ruoxuan, he returned to the office building.

Over the next two days, everything was calm, as if nothing had happened.

Until the afternoon of the third day, when Sun Cheng, seemingly agitated by something, suddenly had a heart attack and was taken away by an ambulance.

Soon after, Cheng Zhuang sent Chen Bin a message explaining what had transpired over the past two days.

He had followed instructions to keep surveillance on Dong Lili outside the government building every day.

After tailing for two whole days, he finally captured evidence of Dong Lili and Sun Cheng being intimate in a car.

He then submitted the photos directly to the disciplinary inspection office and key leaders in Qingshi County.

A short while ago, he received confirmation from above that the matter would be thoroughly investigated.

With the mission complete, Cheng Zhuang finally contacted Chen Bin.

"Nice work. Go home and wait for my update."

After putting away his phone, Chen Bin immediately knocked on Wang Jun’s office door.

Upon entering, he locked the door behind him.

At the moment, Wang Jun was staring blankly at his desk.

On top of it lay a photograph.

The photo showed Sun Cheng pressing down on Dong Lili, both appearing to enjoy the moment.

It had to be said—Cheng Zhuang’s photography skills were impressive.

Not only did he capture Dong Lili and Sun Cheng’s faces, but he also managed to photograph their lower bodies joined together.

Faced with such irrefutable evidence, Sun Cheng had no grounds for argument anymore.

"Xiao Bin, sit down and let’s talk."

Wang Jun immediately stood up and poured Chen Bin a glass of water.

He never expected Chen Bin to actually get the job done so effectively.

For him, this was clearly a golden opportunity.

As soon as Chen Bin sat down, Wang Jun asked, "What’s your plan for step two?"

"Give Secretary Li a gift."

"A gift?"

Frowning deeply, Wang Jun looked puzzled.

"He’s about to be transferred out. Why should I give him a gift?"

Chen Bin explained, "Sun Cheng’s promotion is basically out of the question now. Secretary Li, as the top leader of Qingshi County, must have strong connections to be promoted so quickly. If you curry favor with him, your chances of promotion will greatly improve."

Hearing this, Wang Jun nodded repeatedly, agreeing with the logic.

Unable to help himself, he asked, "What do you think would be an appropriate gift?"

Chen Bin curled his lips and cast a sidelong glance at him.

"You’re a leader, after all. Do I need to teach you how to prepare a gift?"

Clearing his throat, Wang Jun looked a bit embarrassed.

Even he wasn’t sure why he felt the need to consult Chen Bin before taking action.

But he had to admit—Chen Bin’s strategies were brilliant.

Not only did they reveal his opponents’ weaknesses, eliminating them from the competition, but they also pinpointed key figures who could help him rise to power.

If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would never have imagined that this young newcomer in the political arena had such cunning methods.

Back when he first entered politics, he had believed that hard work alone would carve out a path for him.

Instead, his impatience led to offending his superiors, which caused him to be gradually sidelined.

Now, in Qingshi County, he was essentially a figurehead.

Chen Bin’s emergence gave him hope again.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Jun couldn’t hold back his next question.

"When do you think is the best time to give this gift?"

"The sooner, the better. Secretary Li is leaving soon. If you keep waiting, you might miss your chance entirely."

"Alright, I’ll go tonight."

Realizing it was Friday, Chen Bin couldn’t help but ask.

"My godmother mentioned last time that she wanted us to come home this weekend to have a nice meal. If you go visit Secretary Li..."

"I won’t be going back this weekend. A meal is nothing compared to a promotion!"

Hearing this, Chen Bin decided not to say more.

Just as he was about to leave, he remembered something about Cheng Zhuang and spoke up immediately.

"The photos were taken by my friend Cheng Zhuang. He’s ex-military with solid skills. I promised him that once things were settled, he could work as a driver at the County Committee. Can you handle that?"

Nodding, Wang Jun replied in an even tone.

"No problem. I can arrange it. Have him report next Monday."

"Great!"

With that, Chen Bin left the office.

After texting Cheng Zhuang, he felt a wave of melancholy.

He initially thought that with Wang Jun accompanying him, at least there wouldn’t be awkward silence during dinner.

But now... it would just be the two of them at home tonight.

What was he supposed to do?!
