I asked you to go down the mountain and get married, not to shock the world!

Good man, have you become so guilty?

Seeing that the city lord was almost unable to withstand Mingchuan's gaze, Mingchuan winked at the other subordinates behind him.

"Accept the city lord's gift. Take it with you and we'll look at it after we're done with today."

"Yes."

The subordinate responded and took the gift from the city lord's hand.

Feeling the heaviness of the gift box, a look of glory appeared on the men's faces.

If they can follow a person like Mingchuan, the more gifts others give them, the more money they can make!

It means that they have a share of all the gifts given by the distinguished guests who came today!

For a moment, the brothers were so proud of themselves that after taking the gift boxes, they turned around and put the things away.

But the city lord was still standing there in a daze, not knowing what to do.

I don't even know how to sit down when I'm standing.

Mingchuan looked at his appearance and raised his eyebrows: "City Lord, I have accepted the gift, you should sit down."

When the city lord heard his words, he suddenly reacted and nodded repeatedly.

"Oh, I see..."

He squatted down in a hurry. When he sat on the chair, he felt that the wooden board under him was like a burning fire, making him uncomfortable all over.

The cold sweat on his forehead kept increasing, his face became paler and paler, and his lips turned purple.

Mingchuan deliberately changed seats with the person next to him, sat next to him, and smiled at him.

"City Lord, are you not feeling well? Why do you look so pale?"

The city lord shuddered, a bitter smile forming on his lips. He forced a smile and said to Mingchuan, "No...no...I, I'm just too nervous. After all, I've never met someone like you, General, before. This is my first time, so I can't help but feel a little nervous because of my admiration for you."

"Don't mind..."

Not to mention that this kid has reached this point, but he still can't forget the flattery and adulation in his bones, and just gave Mingchuan a dry laugh.

Mingchuan sneered, "Really? Are you panicking just because you've never had any contact with me?"

The city lord wiped his sweat with a tissue and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes..."

But the smile on his lips made people feel suspicious no matter how they looked at it.

But since he hasn't got any relevant information about this guy yet, Mingchuan just pretends to be confused for the time being.

"Haha, there's no need to be so nervous. We are all very approachable."

After Mingchuan finished speaking, he stopped paying attention to him and looked at the other people around him not far away, clinking glasses and toasting each other.

Seeing him like this, the city lord knew that his attention was no longer on him, but his body still did not leave him even a step away.

Strange... so strange...

The city lord's heart was pounding.

At this moment, time seemed to be stretched countless times into an excruciating torment.

He pressed his legs together uncomfortably, his feet shaking slightly under the table.

I don’t know how much time passed, but Jizhou, who had left the door, came back and returned to Mingchuan.

He glanced at the city lord.

That look immediately made the city lord feel as if he was being fried in a frying pan, and he felt uncomfortable all over.

He suddenly became nervous and his heart beat violently.

But Jizhou didn't say anything to him, he just leaned over and whispered something into Mingchuan's ear.

Seeing this, the city lord quietly leaned over to listen to their conversation, but was quickly discovered by Mingchuan.

Mingchuan raised a teasing smile and turned to look at him.

"City Lord, what are you looking at me for? I'm talking to my brother about some work, and it's not good for you to get so close to me, right?"

The city lord's heart skipped a beat. He quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead and quickly distanced himself from Mingchuan.

"I'm... I'm sorry... General Ming, please don't mind it. I didn't mean it..."

Mingchuan sneered, stared at him for a moment, then stood up with his sleeves swung, left the scene with Jizhou, and went to other rooms.

Seeing the two of them leaving so gracefully, the City Lord clenched his fists once again...

Instead of feeling relieved, he became even more nervous and winked at his men around him.

The men immediately moved closer.

He lowered his voice and asked quietly, "Is everything taken care of?"

The subordinate nodded: "It's been taken care of. Don't worry, there will be no omissions. They will definitely not find it."

The city lord's heart was pounding wildly. For some reason, the more certain his men were, the more panicked he became.

"Go down first, then go back and make sure."

"Yes."

The men left quickly.

At the same time, in the unknown room ahead.

Jizhou stood in front of Mingchuan and told Mingchuan everything he had just found out.

"Brother Ming, there's something fishy about this city lord. He seems to have reached an agreement with someone some time ago, and this agreement is harmful to ordinary people."

"It is said that they had previously cooperated with the Wang family, but after you discovered them, the city lord immediately severed ties with them."

"Also, this guy was always secretly making money and made a lot of money..."

Jizhou went on telling the story one thing at a time, revealing every dark side of the city lord one by one.

Mingchuan's face became darker and darker.

"I was saying that others in my position would inevitably come up to me and fawn over me when they see me. But why did this old man shrink back into the crowd when he saw me, trying to minimize his presence?"

"So it turns out that something is wrong."

"It's kind of funny. I just came back, and you're giving me such a big credit?"

Ji Zhou smiled slightly and said, "Brother, you're kidding. You've already done so many great things. You don't need a small thing like this."

Mingchuan raised his eyebrows, "Alright then, I'll leave this matter to you. Just snap him."

"No need to give him so much face."

Ji Zhou looked outside the room, hesitated, and said carefully: "It's not a good idea, right? There are so many people outside now, and this is our first time in office. If we make too much of a fuss right after returning, it might cause resentment among others..."

Mingchuan raised his eyebrows, looked at Jizhou's worried expression, and smiled.

"It's rare for you to think about these issues. However, I didn't ask you to stay with me so that you can worry about these things."

"Just do it. Don't dither and overthink."

Jizhou's eyes suddenly lit up: "Yes! I understand!"

He immediately turned around and left the room, his whole body filled with the murderous aura of a battlefield.

The moment this evil spirit appeared, it enveloped an area of ​​several miles.

Everyone who was chatting happily in the living room felt a dangerous aura at this moment, and a chill went up their backs!
