In the early morning, a thin layer of ice accumulated in front of the organizational council’s office building. The secretary almost fell when she got out of the car in high heels and limped out of the elevator. When she walked into the hallway and took a turn, she found that the lights in the director’s office were on.
Pushing the door in, a familiar figure was sitting on the wide office chair. Hearing the sound, the person looked up. It was Zhou Mushi, whom she hadn’t seen for many days.
“Mr. Zhou, you’re back?”
Zhou Mushi nodded faintly, his cold gaze sweeping over her, causing the hair on the secretary’s spine to stand up, as if she had returned to the ice and snow outside the building.
The boss disappeared for nearly a month due to illness. This had never happened before. It seems like there are a lot of strange things behind it, but the secretary had limited authority and did not dare to act rashly when she could not contact Zhou Mushi. She could only do her job well. Over time, she thought about many possibilities, and the more she thought about it, the more flustered she became. Now that she saw the other party coming back intact, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately afterward, Zhou Mushi’s words brought her back to reality.
There were several stacks of documents on the table, all of which were recent personnel information. Some of them were thrown in front of her. Then the omega’s voice rang out insipidly. “Fire all these people.”
The secretary’s eyes widened, but she lowered her head and flipped over the pages. They were minor functionary officials and secretarial staff in the council. Although they were not important figures, it would be excessive to dismiss them all in one go. “This… for what reason?”
“No reason,” Zhou Mushi said. “You don’t have to worry about the Ministry of Supervision. No matter what method you use, they should be all cleaned up.”
His tone sounded casual, but there was a flash of coldness in his eyes, which made the secretary dare not ask any more questions, and bowed her head to accept this tricky job.
As expected, even after leaving the post for a month, his swift and decisive style is still the same as before.

The secretary turned on the terminal computer and began to sort out the information and report. When her peripheral vision fell on the other party, she couldn’t help but look at him while working. She hadn’t seen him for a while and Zhou Mushi seemed to have lost a lot of weight. Other than that, there was no other physical change, but his temperament was a bit indescribably different. No one knows what has happened.

“Mr… Mr. Zhou?”
“Give me the report on Yu Yuan’s latest itinerary.”
“This… after the end of the election, his communicator cannot be located. I don’t have his terminal authority.”
Zhou Mushi raised his chin. “Now you have it.”
The secretary called up the monitoring function and operated it for a while, then said in surprise, “I can access it, but why…”
She suddenly realized something, and when she looked up at Zhou Mushi, she lowered her voice, “Mr. Yu. He?”
“He has been tired these past few days, so I will let him rest for a while.”
The secretary suddenly shivered.
Zhou Mushi’s face was indifferent. He read the itinerary report all the way through and asked, “What is his itinerary today?”
“There’s an invitation letter for a charity banquet in the mailbox. Mr. Yu made an appointment with Vice Secretary-General Liu to meet there the day before yesterday at three o’clock in the afternoon.”
Zhou Mushi narrowed his eyes as if thinking of something then said, “Get ready, I’ll go in his stead.”
**
At three o’clock, the suspension car stopped on time in front of the banquet hall, and Zhou Mushi got out of the car with a silver cane in his hand, without an assistant, and walked into the door full of visitors alone.
On the way here, he carefully reviewed the people and things He Yu had been in contact with during this period. In his head, he had a rough guess about the alpha’s plan.
There are two targets of He Yu’s close surveillance, one is behind the bars Yu Chengshan and the Yu family, and the other is the newly appointed Secretary-General Cheng Huanqing.
Zhou Mushi still doesn’t know what exactly happened on the day he was imprisoned, but judging from He Yu’s performance and some previous clues, it can be easily deduced that this matter has something to do with Cheng Huanqing.
He Yu once asked him why he chose that surnamed Cheng to be the Secretary-General. The reason was simple. Among the leaders of the neutral faction, there were some with deeper backgrounds and some who were smarter, but Zhou Mushi didn’t need these. He only needs someone easier to control.
Cheng Huanqing is not stupid, his ability is enough for this position. He’s ambitious, overly ambitious for a family background that is just above average. From all aspects, he’s not a threat to him.
Now it seemed that he had overestimated this person’s heart and means.
As for the Vice Secretary-General surnamed Liu, he was originally on Zhou Mushi’s candidate list. If this happens, then the purpose of He Yu’s trip couldn’t be more obvious.
He wanted to lend someone the opportunity to kick Cheng Huanqing down.
Coincidentally, Zhou Mushi also had this plan.
This charity banquet will be held from the afternoon up until the evening. It is a very large-scale event. Many celebrities are gathered. Men and women that come to and fro are all dressed in luxurious clothes. However, except for a few high-ranking politicians, most people don’t know Zhou Mushi. It was only as if he was only a celebrity or a son of an aristocratic family, so he was able to avoid the crowd and walked straight in with his cane.
When he was about to pass through the hall, a woman in an evening dress suddenly stood in front of him.
Zhou Mushi raised his eyes, and said in neither cold nor warm manner, “Miss Yu.”
Yu Min’s face was covered with delicate makeup. Her haggardness a month ago could no longer be seen, but her eyes showed surprise when she looked at Zhou Mushi. “Zhou Mushi, what are you doing here?”
Indeed, he rarely participated in such social occasions in the past, but the tone of the other party was really strange. Zhou Mushi frowned. “This has nothing to do with Miss Yu, right?”
The look on Yu Min’s face changed. It was unknown what she was thinking. She lowered her voice and asked, “Where’s Yu Yuan?”
Zhou Mushi was a little surprised that the other party would mention Yu Yuan’s name here and now, but he didn’t show the surprise on his face, and just said, “He’s naturally at home.”
There is absolutely no possibility of He Yu’s itinerary being leaked to anyone other than him. Yu Min should not know about it. Is she especially here to wait for the other party?
For what? Didn’t they know He Yu’s true identity and still haven’t given up on asking him for help?
“You……”
As his mind turned, Yu Min on the opposite side, said something in a low voice. When Zhou Mushi raised his head, he saw the expression on the woman’s face change several times. It seemed that there was a moment of entanglement that flashed by, and when she finally looked at him, her face was full of biting hatred. She snorted coldly, turned around, and walked away holding her skirt.
Ridiculous.
Zhou Mushi looked at the leaving back of the other party and thought of a part of the information he had seen in He Yu’s terminal.
