Both of them continued to chat happily for a while before Sun Yuerong stood up. “It was great to catch up with you today, Songyin. When we have time, let us get our families together for a meal.”

“Sure, I intend to host a charity dinner in a few days’ time. Please do come and support it.” Cai Songyin shook hands with Sun Yuerong and whispered, “You have to give this to your husband as soon as possible.”

Cai Songyin looked anxious.

Sun Yuerong was slightly taken aback.

The moment both of them had let go of each other’s hands, they felt that their own hands were clammy and cold.

“I shall make a move first, then.” Sun Yuerong forced a smile and headed home quickly.

The moment she got home, she headed to the study to look for Hong Kangquan.

However, at that time, Hong Kangquan had already gone to work.

Sun Yuerong sat in the study for a while and still felt worried. She thought about how anxious Cai Songyin had sounded and could not wait any longer.

She took the thumb drive and headed directly to the Secret Service headquarters, asking for Hong Kangquan.

Hong Kangquan was in a meeting when she got there.

For this election, the Secret Service was helping the Special Forces with the security for the event.

With a job involving helping another organization falling upon them, the members of the Secret Service were all unhappy.

To them, all the credit would be given to the Special Forces, but the manual labor would have to be borne by the Secret Service. It was a job that was tiring but not rewarding at all.

The meetings of the Secret Service became a time for the members to complain.

Hong Kangquan listened to their complaints with a smile and comforted them continuously.

“All of you are overthinking...”

“Everyone is just serving the citizens. Let us not be so calculative.”

“Do not worry. I will report all your hard work to Senior Speaker Long and General Ji.”

Hong Kangquan’s endless reassurance finally appeased the moods of his subordinates.

After the meeting had ended, everyone returned to their positions.

Hong Kangquan returned to his office and was informed that his wife, Sun Yuerong, was already waiting for him in the holding room.

“Let her in.” Hong Kangquan instructed his people over the phone.

The guard on duty brought Sun Yuerong into Hong Kangquan’s office and closed the door behind them.

“Why are you here?” Hong Kangquan asked with a smile on his face but coldness in his eyes.

“I had breakfast with Mrs. Tan...” Sun Yuerong stammered.

The moment Sun Yuerong mentioned Cai Songyin’s name, Hong Kangquan stopped her. “I have not had breakfast yet. Accompany me, will you?”

“Sure.” Sun Yuerong agreed immediately and left the office with Hong Kangquan.

When they had arrived at the restaurant, Hong Kangquan reprimanded Sun Yuerong softly. “Don’t you know that there are cameras everywhere in the Secret Service? Did you leave your brains at home? Why did you choose to talk to me in there?!”

Sun Yuerong looked around cautiously. “Songyin was very anxious. I had to look for you, but I did not dare to call.”

“Fine, fine. What is it?” Hong Kangquan’s breakfast was very simple. He only had two hard-boiled eggs and a cup of coffee.

Sun Yuerong handed the thumb drive that Cai Songyin had given her to Hong Kangquan. “She gave me this and asked you to help.”

“Asked me to help? Do you know what the situation is like right now?” Hong Kangquan was furious. “You really are brainless!”

He was so angry that he did not even want to eat breakfast anymore. Putting down his cutlery, he stood up and stormed off, leaving Sun Yuerong alone in the restaurant.

Sun Yuerong called for the bill after staying there for a little while longer.

Upon returning to the car, Hong Kangquan thought about it for a while with a darkened expression, then took the thumb drive out. He inserted the thumb drive into his personal laptop.

This was his personal laptop. He had never connected it to the internet before, so it was definitely safe.

Actually, Hong Kangquan did not wish to dabble in the things that were going on over on Cai Songyin’s side but seeing the contents of the thumb drive, his heart skipped a beat.

It seemed as though he would have to dabble in it after all.

The thumb drive contained the information of an online author and a letter that Cai Songyin had written to him.

She told him that it seemed like someone had learned about what had happened to Tan Guiren when she was in New York. She hoped that Hong Kangquan was able to use his authority in the Secret Service to help her in silencing that person.

At that point in time, the issue with Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng was not on Cai Songyin’s mind anymore. Her priority right then was to save her daughter’s perfect reputation! Her daughter’s perfect reputation could never be tarnished!

She did not even care about Tan Dongbang’s reputation. However, her daughter, Tan Guiren, was her lifeline. Therefore, nothing could happen to her.

Hong Kangquan had actually intended to stay out of this.

That almost perfect plan in New York had all gone to waste, and it had caused Hong Kangquan a good number of sleepless nights.

He had already made up his mind to stay away from the Tan’s and not to have anything else to do with them lest they would get him into trouble.

However, Cai Songyin had begun to harass him, using this to threaten him.

Cai Songyin’s motive was clear. If Hong Kangquan refused to help her settle this, she would turn Hong Kangquan in.

When Huo Shaoheng returned from New York, he had begun investigating who had recommended that he be the one to go to New York personally to save Tan Guiren.

Cai Songyin, however, pretended that she could not remember, saying that everyone had recommended him. She had used the fact that the law would not be able to punish the masses and managed to get away with it.

Huo Shaoheng did not have any evidence or target at that time. Cai Songyin was also not a suspect.

Therefore, although he had many resources on hand, he could not use it on his fellow citizens without reason.

So, there was no other option than to put the matter aside.

However, as long as Cai Songyin wished to, she would be able to expose Hong Kangquan at any time.

“You wish to threaten me?” Hong Kangquan chuckled coldly. He took his personal phone and called Cai Songyin directly.

“Mrs. Tan, your request is too much to handle; your humble servant really is unable to fulfill it.” Hong Kangquan said politely as he held the thumb drive that was given to his wife by Cai Songyin in his hand tightly, intending to destroy it.

Hearing that Hong Kangquan wanted to reject her request, Cai Songyin got anxious. “Minister Hong, how can you say that? I had not turned you in by keeping quiet at the time I was being questioned, and I did it all for your sake, and now you are being ungrateful?”

“Aren’t you the one being ungrateful here?” Hong Kangquan chuckled. “Moreover, why did you keep quiet at that time? I suggested Huo Shao because I felt that he was the best candidate. What issue would there be? You could have just said it. Huo Shao was a soldier who followed me in the past. I know his capabilities way better than you.” He wanted to hang up after saying that.

Cai Songyin felt a chill running down her spine.

Hong Kangquan was now trying to deny everything.

There was a possibility that she would not be able to threaten him at all. However, if he was to walk out on them now, what would her daughter do?!

In a moment of anxiety, Cai Songyin had only wanted Hong Kangquan to send some people out to deal with the online blogger who had gotten his or her hands on Tan Guiren’s secrets. Thinking of a way out suddenly, she said, “You are really going to wash your hands of this? You dare say that the attack that Huo Shao had met with when he was in New York trying to save Guigui had absolutely nothing to do with you?”

Hong Kangquan could say that he had recommended Huo Shaoheng due to his capabilities, but how was he going to explain the danger that Huo Shaoheng had encountered when he was in New York?!

As long as people put two and two together, Hong Kangquan would definitely be in deep trouble.

Cai Songyin did not actually have any evidence of this. However, she really did not have any other way out. Had she not done this, Hong Kangquan would have never helped her.

“What has whatever he met with in New York got to do with me?!” Hong Kangquan was so furious that the blood vessels in his forehead were twitching. Women did not have logic at all, he thought.

“How would I know what it would have to do with you? You can go and explain to Huo Shao personally. I think he probably has a lot of ways to find the truth.” Cai Songyin had finally gotten her point across and knew that she had successfully managed to threaten Hong Kangquan.

If he had really done nothing, he would have said to let them check for all he cared.

However, Hong Kangquan remained silent for a long while before finally replying. “Wait for my news.”

Cai Songyin finally breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart skipped a beat as well.

Goodness, it seemed like she had discovered something significant coincidentally.

Hong Kangquan was really involved in what happened to Huo Shao in New York?!
