The Beauties Help Me Become the No.1 Official-Chapter 295: Shatter the Enemy from the Middle

The luxurious mansion naturally had a luxurious banquet hall.

As the protagonist of the evening, Lin Fan sat to the right of Gao Sheng. Of course, this was a result of his deference; otherwise, with his current popularity, it would have been completely reasonable for him to take the seat of honor. Gao Min accompanied him by his side, and below them were Gao Shan and his second son, Gao Meng. As for Gao Yan, he was not present.

Soon, the large table that could fit twenty people was filled with precious and delicious food. Whether it was mountain delicacies or seafood, everything was available. Looking at the enticing dishes, Gao Sheng picked up his wine glass. After giving Lv Pingping, who sat beside him, a knowing look, he turned to Lin Fan and said, "This first glass was originally to welcome Mayor Lin’s gracious presence. However, I didn’t expect my careless wife to cause a misunderstanding, so let this glass serve as our apology to you!"

"Exactly, exactly... I really had no idea... Mayor Lin was so young... It was my lack of insight... I hope Mayor Lin is magnanimous and won’t stoop to the level of a housewife like me. I’ll drink to that!"

At this moment, Lv Pingping also put on a kindly smile. With her every move, who could tell that behind it was the face of someone vicious and brutal.

"I believe Aunt Lv is kind-hearted at heart, it’s just that she’s been used by some people with ulterior motives!"

Lin Fan drained the wine in his glass, bringing the topic once again to the butler. Hearing this, Gao Sheng’s expression changed.

"Indeed, there was a scoundrel working in the shadows. I was planning to show Mayor Lin after the meal, but now I think it would be more appetizing to see the outcome beforehand."

Gao Sheng exchanged a glance with Gao Shan, who immediately nodded, walked out of the dining hall, and in a little while, two burly men dragged in the butler, his face covered in blood, no longer able to move. His swollen face had lost all human shape, a scene that made both Lv Pingping and Gao Min inhale sharply.

Gao Shan then placed a tray in front of Lin Fan, which held several teeth still attached to bits of flesh; it was evident that they had been knocked out from the bloodied mouth of the butler.

"President Gao truly is a decisive and swift acting figure, no wonder he accomplishes great things."

Lin Fan nodded with a smile, glancing at Lv Pingping, whose face had turned pale. He couldn’t smack her face, but the butler had taken her place in punishment, serving as a chastisement for her.

"Mayor Lin, please don’t flatter me... If a dog I’ve raised bites people, of course, it needs to be disciplined... As long as you are appeased, that’s what matters most. I’ll punish myself with three more glasses, as an apology to you."

Gao Sheng, ever the people-pleaser, picked up his glass and downed three drinks in quick succession. Lin Fan naturally didn’t refuse and also raised his glass for three drinks. Once the two had finished, Gao Sheng finally set down his glass and turned to Gao Shan, "From today on, kick him and all his relatives out of the company, and never employ them again."

"This..."

Gao Shan looked embarrassedly at Gao Sheng and said, "Dad... the matter of personnel has always been under Aunt Lv’s jurisdiction... I honestly don’t know how to differentiate!"

"From today on, the HR department is under your control."

With a single, nonchalant statement from Gao Sheng, Lv Pingping’s power over personnel was revoked. She could only clench her teeth, not daring to speak. Thus, the banquet, seemingly inconsequential, yet fraught with undercurrents, continued until late into the night when Lin Fan, intoxicated, was finally assisted to the guest room for rest by Gao Min and Gao Shan.

"Master... was it really necessary to treat Sun Sheng like that..."

Only after everyone had dispersed did Lv Pingping dare to speak. But as soon as she had finished, Gao Sheng’s hand had already slapped across her face: "Remember from now on, I don’t want to hear that name again, or don’t blame me for disregarding the affection of a husband and wife!"

Gao Sheng, with eyes red with anger, scared Lv Pingping into silence. She rarely saw Gao Sheng this furious, but having suffered a great loss today, she still couldn’t help but sit on the side, wiping away tears and muttering, "It’s just a Mayor... what’s so great about that... Even the County magistrates and District chiefs were not so arrogant when they met you... how can a mere Mayor treat you like this now."

"You know nothing. Do you think it’s his position that I fear? Do you know who is behind him? Everyone knows now; he is Zhu Defu’s man, and he has connections with Guo Baoming. That means he has two Deputy Mayors behind him. No matter who eventually moves up, he will be the favored one. Do you think he cares about your meal? His presence for dinner signifies that he’s bringing you money to spend!"

Gao Sheng’s face darkened, his words causing Lv Pingping to become even more fearful, as her retired bureau chief father seemed completely powerless.

"But... but now Gao Min has become his woman... and the looks between him and Gao Shan are somewhat ambiguous... This whole thing today was a trap he set to bully me... I... am I not having a hard time?"

"If it’s hard, then endure it. It’s your own fault for being aggressive and domineering all the time. This is karma!"

Gao Sheng stood up and walked out towards the dining hall. He too could see that today was clearly a setup. But into this pit, he had to jump, whether he wanted to or not.
