23: Chapter 23: Peacekeeper, A First-Class Femme Fatale!

Liang Yueru?

Xu Qianli secretly thought it was a case of speak of the devil, and he would appear.

Regarding this famous businesswoman from Jiang City, Xu Qianli had also heard some information about her.

She was the owner of the largest hotel in the county, Jiang City Hotel, and her business was not limited to the hotel industry, as she also ventured into real estate and department store retailing, among other fields.

Her business was extremely large, with assets rumored to be more than ten billion yuan.

In a small county city like Jiang City, she was definitely a prominent figure.

Not only was she rich, but she was also stunningly beautiful and sexy, full of feminine charm, which made countless men drool over her and pursue her desperately, yet failed to win her affections.

She even had no scandals to speak of.

Xu Qianli had heard people discuss her, mentioning her deep background, yet no one knew exactly what that background was.

Moreover, there were rumors that beneath her outward appearance as a successful businesswoman, she had another identity, a peacekeeper, who specialized in helping people settle troublesome matters.

Just as Xu Qianli had heard from Wu Kai that Wei Yong saw Liang Yueru before his death, he was wondering if her death had any connection to Wei Yong.

And now, this woman had actually shown up at his door, which was definitely not a mere coincidence!

Xu Qianli ended the call with Wu Kai first, unplugged the USB drive, put it away, and then went to open the door.

Upon opening the door, he saw a top-rate beauty standing in front of him, dressed in a fiery red gown, with delicately perfect features, and exuding a strong aura of a female mogul, smiling comfortably.

He had long heard of Liang Yueru’s beauty, being a top beauty in Jiang City, but sadly had never had the chance to see her in person.

Now that he saw her, her beauty was beyond Xu Qianli’s imagination, and the rumors were indeed true.

“Ms.

Liang, it’s a rare pleasure to have you visit.

It’s hot outside, please come in.”

Xu Qianli gestured for her to enter and made way.

“Then I won’t stand on ceremony and will intrude.”

Liang Yueru covered her red lips with a light laugh, striding into the office with her long legs.

Xu Qianli closed the door, invited Liang Yueru to take a seat, handed her a cup of tea, and began to make idle conversation, all the while observing the woman.

The red dress was dazzling, something not just any woman could pull off, especially in the heat of summer.

But Liang Yueru managed it perfectly, and the red gown added much to her luster.

Sitting on the sofa with her legs pressed together, speaking eloquently and with intelligence and dignity, she exuded an impressive air.

Xu Qianli sat opposite Liang Yueru, admiring her flawless appearance.

She really was a natural beauty, not only beautiful but also composed and graceful, truly deserving of being Jiang City’s famed beauty and businesswoman.

As he continued to look, Xu Qianli’s gaze fell on Liang Yueru’s plump knees when she suddenly crossed one leg over the other.

Boom.

Xu Qianli felt a surge of adrenaline and became impulsive.

My god, in that fleeting moment, she was going commando!

This woman had dressed up so beautifully to come over, and she had even deliberately made such a move.

What on earth was she planning to do?

Surely, she wasn’t just here to seduce me?

Xu Qianli considered himself decent enough looking, certainly handsome, and as the youngest department-level cadre in Jiang City, he felt he had a decent appeal to women, but he didn’t believe it was enough to have someone like Liang Yueru, a stunning businesswoman, come over to seduce him proactively.

There must be a purpose to this woman’s visit!

Liang Yueru sipped her tea and chatted casually with Xu Qianli, talking about work, life, and even inquiring about Xu Qianli’s love life, seeming quite interested in him.

But she danced around the topic, never mentioning her purpose for coming.

As Yueru didn’t bring up her intentions, Xu Qianli didn’t ask either, just let the conversation drag on.

After all, she was beautiful to look at, and it wasn’t bad to entertain her with some aimless chat.

Chatting away, Liang Yueru suddenly tugged at her neckline and fanned herself on the inside.

“Yikes, it’s so hot, do you always keep the air conditioning so high, Director Xu, or can the County Government not even afford the electricity bill?”

Liang Yueru’s coquettish voice rang out, her pretty face devoid of a single bead of sweat, yet she acted as if she were truly overheated.

Her figure was naturally impressive, the front of her dress conspicuously taut, and the neckline of her red dress was a low-cut style; without any effort, a glimpse of snowy white was already eye-catching.

With this tug at her neckline, a large expanse of white fiercely assaulted Xu Qianli’s vision.

Damn, what on earth is this woman trying to do?

Caught up in his impulses, Xu Qianli just couldn’t understand.

Why would such a beautiful woman, who could be doing anything else, come over and deliberately tease him?

For what purpose?

Watching her act like that, Xu Qianli really felt like tearing that annoying red dress to shreds right then and there.

But reason urged him to stay calm, the situation felt like a trap was waiting for him to step into and he must not be hooked.

He picked up his teacup and downed it in one gulp, Xu Qianli forcibly shifted his gaze from Liang Yueru’s chest to her beautiful yet inscrutable face, and started with a smile.

“Ms.

Liang, as a major businesswoman, you must be incredibly busy with work.

It’s an immense honor that you took the time to come here today and chat with me.”

“It’s just that government work tends to be rather busy, and I still have some matters to handle.

What do you say we chat another day?”

Xu Qianli was clearly giving her the boot; this woman deliberately plays coy and teases without stating her intentions, and he couldn’t understand her endgame.

He refused to play along anymore; she could go wherever she pleased!

Being given the boot by Xu Qianli, Liang Yueru let out a chuckle, a laugh more radiant than a blossoming flower.

She dipped her fingers in the teacup, flicked a drop at Xu Qianli, and giggled as she began.

“You really are interesting, having a great beauty like me to chat with, and yet you’re not even happy.”

“Don’t be scared, but in all these years, this is the first time I’ve received a boot in Jiang City.

You’re my first.”

“Director Xu, you’re so bad, I’m truly heartbroken – you have to take responsibility.”

“Look at you, your face is all red, you’re so easily teased.

And to think you’ve had girlfriends before.

Anyone who doesn’t know you would think you’re a greenhorn, never having touched a woman.”

Liang Yueru smiled playfully as Yanran would, her figure now crawling onto the coffee table, kneeling on it, deliberately leaning forward, tilting her head to look up at Xu Qianli, her eyes full of slyness, her entire presence exuding a strong foxy allure, almost like a true siren.

Xu Qianli had seen his fair share of grand events; over the years, quite a few women had hovered around him, attempting to seduce him, and there were even those who stripped naked and propositioned him outright.

But compared to Liang Yueru’s maneuvers, those other women were leagues apart.

This woman was truly a living, breathing siren!

Seeing Xu Qianli mute, solely fixated on her, Liang Yueru reached out and tapped lightly on his forehead.

“Why so silent, huh?

Has a woman scared you into speechlessness?”

Her tongue slipped across the corner of her mouth as Liang Yueru pouted at Xu Qianli.

“Hee hee hee, am I really that frightening?”

“Or is it that you, as a man, are just a coward?”

What, coward?

In a flash, Xu Qianli lost control, raised his hand, and delivered a slap onto Liang Yueru’s ample buttocks.

“Knock it off, talk business if you’ve got something to say, stop flaunting yourself!”

“If you keep it up, watch out, I might just eat you up!”
