Reborn as a prince, achieve the pinnacle of power

After finishing his report, Xu Zhengyang went downstairs to rest.

Young Master Chu and Li Yitong came to the rooftop terrace. The sea breeze caressed them, and the blue sky and the vast ocean intertwined into a magnificent picture that was refreshing.

"Yuchen, a week has passed so quickly, and we have to go back to Beijing again."

Li Yitong leaned on Young Master Chu's shoulder, narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, and looked at the sea in the distance, feeling quite reluctant.

Young Master Chu gently hugged Li Yitong's slender waist, looked into the distance, and asked softly, "Are you reluctant to leave this comfortable environment?"

"Ah."

Li Yitong nodded gently and said softly: "Here, I can feel the long-lost tranquility and peace, without worldly disturbances, like a small world away from the hustle and bustle.

The most important thing is that you can accompany us more often, unlike in Beijing, where you would not come home for several days when you were busy."

Young Master Chu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, but deep in his heart, ripples of emotion arose, and he was filled with emotion.

Since the beginning of this year, due to many complicated reasons, the couple has indeed been spending less time together than together.

Major General Chu tightened his arms around Li Yitong's slender waist, then slowly lowered his head, leaned close to her crystal clear earlobe, and whispered softly:

"Since you don't want to go back so soon, let's rest here for a while."

"really?"

A hint of surprise that was difficult to conceal flashed across Li Yitong's beautiful eyes. Then, she raised her pretty face and gazed affectionately into Young Master Chu's deep eyes, impatiently asking:

"Can you not rush back to the capital?" His voice was clear and pleasant, full of joy and excitement.

"of course."

Young Master Chu nodded with a smile, and a gentle smile of extreme doting appeared on his handsome face. He said slowly: "Didn't I arrange for Wu Qingzhu to come?"

"Yuchen, you are so nice!"

Li Yitong smiled happily, her beautiful eyes curved into two crescents. Then she stood on tiptoe, stretched out her arms and tightly wrapped them around Mr. Chu's broad and solid neck, and took the initiative to give him a hot and sweet kiss without any reservation.

"Ouch, it seems I came up at the wrong time."

At this time, a familiar sound of footsteps was heard, and Bai Xiaolu walked onto the terrace, holding a fruit plate in both hands. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but sigh jokingly: "Look at the two of you, so romantic, I almost thought I had entered a private space by mistake."

Li Yitong smiled shyly, gently broke free from Master Chu's embrace, walked towards Bai Xiaolu, and held her arm affectionately: "Xiaolu, let me tell you, Yuchen agreed to stay here for a while longer."

When Bai Xiaolu heard this, her eyes flickered slightly, and then she revealed a knowing smile, her beautiful eyes filled with joy.

……

Before I knew it, another day had passed.

The next morning, the seaside manor welcomed guests.

"Boss Chu, this is Qin Shenghe, the special case team leader sent by the capital this time, Mr. Qin."

At the gate of the villa, Wu Qingzhu got out of the car and introduced a sixty-year-old man who came in the same car to Young Master Chu.

Although the old man is in his seventies, he is in good spirits, with a look of determination between his brows and a sense of authority that cannot be ignored in his every move.

His dress was simple but tasteful, a white shirt and light grey trousers, which made him look neat and tidy.

As soon as Young Master Chu saw him, he knew that this was a veteran who had been fighting on the front line of supervision for a long time. He was not only experienced, but also upright. This trait must have played a key role in his career.

"Hello, Mr. Qin."

Young Master Chu took the initiative to step forward, stretched out his right hand, and shook hands with Qin Shenghe enthusiastically: "Hello, Mr. Qin!"

"General Chu, you are young and promising."

Qin Shenghe also enthusiastically shook Master Chu's hand and said with a smile, "I came here uninvited, please don't be offended."

"Haha, Mr. Qin is joking."

Young Master Chu smiled and replied, "It was me who brought you here thousands of miles away, so please don't be surprised. If you need any help, just let me know."

Qin Shenghe nodded, and then turned his gaze towards the villa: "I heard that your house has a beautiful sea view here, and I have always wanted to see it with my own eyes. I wonder if it would be convenient for me to take a look first?"

Young Master Chu was slightly startled, then nodded slowly: "Of course, you can always come with me, and I will personally be your tour guide."

Qin Shenghe showed a satisfied smile on his face and followed Young Master Chu to the beach.

Young Master Chu and Qin Shenghe walked side by side on the soft and delicate beach at a leisurely pace.

Apart from the sound of waves hitting the shore, there is almost no other noise around, creating a rare tranquility and harmony.

After a while, Qin Shenghe looked at Young Master Chu and praised: "This is really a treasure land. It feels like a paradise on earth, and it makes people feel much more relaxed."

"really."

Young Master Chu smiled and responded, "The beauty of nature can always make people forget the troubles of the world for a while, especially this boundless sea view, which makes people's hearts broad."

"Haha."

Qin Shenghe was slightly stunned, then he burst into a hearty laugh, stopped, and said with a serious expression: "General Chu, I will not play dumb with you any more. I came here this time to inform you."

Young Master Chu looked back at the staff far behind him and said sternly, "Mr. Qin, please speak."

"After yesterday's interrogation by colleagues from the local supervision department of Nanhai Island, we found that there is an even bigger umbrella of protection behind Lan Dongsheng and Huang Rong."

Qin Shenghe's words were like thunder that broke the silence. Young Master Chu frowned slightly, with a sharp gleam in his eyes: "Bigger umbrella? Who is it?"

Qin Shenghe sighed with a complicated expression: "According to Lan Dongsheng, the person behind them is Zhou Huafeng, the helmsman of this island."

"Zhou Huafeng?"

Young Master Chu looked solemn, realizing that the seriousness of the matter was far beyond his imagination. "Mr. Qin, what evidence do you have to prove this?"

"General Chu, did you know that Lan Dongsheng and Huang Rong have both served as Zhou Huafeng's secretaries?"

Qin Shenghe took out a neatly folded document from his pocket and handed it to Master Chu: “This is some of the information we have collected, which contains some key clues.

Lan Dongsheng and Huang Rong confessed under in-depth interrogation that Zhou Huafeng's son, Zhou Ronghua, chairman of Ronghua Group, is the largest local real estate developer. They used their power to carry out a series of illegal activities, including land expropriation, environmental pollution, smuggling and corrupt transactions. Behind these actions, Zhou Huafeng acquiesced.
