"So, it doesn’t take much, just send a troop to persistently hunt down a Cataclysmic, and sooner or later, that Cataclysmic will be worn down to death."
As she said this, Tang Feifei gave Qiu Tu a piercing look, "So, drop that unrealistic thought of yours early on."
"Jia Shu, as the head of the Political Department and a high-ranking member of the Investigation Bureau, is someone who is truly listed in the Sanctuary."
"Kill him, and you’re finished too."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu thoughtfully responded, "What if he makes a move on me?"
Tang Feifei laughed, and as she wiped her hair, she coolly counter-questioned, "Who are you? Someone who’s never even appeared on the Sanctuary’s census?"
She left the rest unsaid, but Qiu Tu understood: if he died, the Sanctuary wouldn’t even know it. So
’Indeed... This is going to be difficult...’
Thinking this, Qiu Tu pondered for a moment, then asked further, "Then... at what rank would Jia Shu no longer be able to lay hands on me as he pleases?"

Tang Feifei replied icily, "According to Sanctuary regulations, a Section Chief in the Planning Area can register with the Sanctuary, becoming an official resident."
"A Department Head is formally included in the Sanctuary’s roster of officials and enjoys various special privileges and allowances."
"So...." She said, glancing at Qiu Tu, "you just need to rise one more level, and then Jia Shu won’t be able to touch you easily."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu felt a stir within.
Indeed... to protect myself, promotion is most crucial!
Promotion can not only enhance one’s own strength but also confer a higher status, making enemies hesitant to move!
With this in mind, he asked again, "By the way, how is the progress of your application to the Sanctuary to investigate Jia Shu?"
When the subject came up, Tang Feifei’s wheat-colored face tightened slightly. She said, "Your plan started too suddenly. I couldn’t coordinate in time."
"So, it wasn’t until last night that I managed to arrange for a confidant to apply to the Sanctuary for an investigation under the pretext of Jia Shu’s malfeasance and silencing key suspects."
"But it’s the weekend. The earliest response from the Sanctuary would not come until Monday afternoon."
"Actually, before yesterday, I wasn’t too confident about the Sanctuary’s reply. I even planned to call back to the Sanctuary to see if I could push it forward proactively."
"But after yesterday’s actions by the Security Department, the Sanctuary must have noticed Xinjie City already."
"Given the way the Sanctuary operates, they’re likely worried that such a commotion could disrupt the unity and stability of Xinjie City."

"This investigation I’ve submitted might just align with their intentions. So, it’s highly likely that the Sanctuary will send someone down to investigate Jia Shu while overseeing the work of the Security Department."
As she said this, Tang Feifei also turned to look at Qiu Tu beside her.
Every move of hers carried an indescribable rhythm, exuding a powerful beauty that was captivating.
"I have to say, your tactics yesterday were splendid. I believe that except for the few of us who know the details and might guess something, most were fooled by you."
"You don’t seem like someone from the lower echelons at all, but more like an outstanding con artist, a politician with some measures."
Light flickered in the depth of her eyes, filled with amber glow, "You... are really interesting."
Possibly prepared for sacrifice, Qiu Tu seemed much more at ease.
He didn’t answer her question, but looked straight into Tang Feifei’s eyes, raised his glass in hand, and said with a smile, "Let’s drink."
Seeing this, Tang Feifei averted her gaze and sipped her wine lightly.
Qiu Tu also took a sip, then spoke firmly, "Since there’s no way to take out Jia Shu, I might need your protection."
Tang Feifei drank her wine, her face full of curiosity as she watched him, "Are you so sure Jia Shu will make a move on you?"
Qiu Tu shook his head slightly, "Not certain."
"But I prefer to be cautious in my actions. I don’t want to put myself in danger."
Hearing Qiu Tu’s words, Tang Feifei laughed so hard she was nearly shaking, "You’re not already in danger?"
"I feel like you’re tightrope walking every day."
Qiu Tu chuckled bitterly at her words. If there were other choices, who would want to live in constant peril!
Perhaps sensing Qiu Tu’s predicament, Tang Feifei fell silent for a moment, then suddenly stood up. She walked with her long, sleek, perfectly straight legs to a safe in the corner of the living room.
She entered the password, opened the safe door, and Tang Feifei bent over, her butt sticking out as she rummaged inside.
Qiu Tu looked over with a face full of surprise, then awkwardly shifted his gaze away.
That woman! She wasn’t wearing any panties!
So in his line of sight, everything was fully revealed!
Soon, Tang Feifei closed the safe. She held a small white paper figure in her hand as she came over to Qiu Tu.
Striding over with her long legs, Tang Feifei approached Qiu Tu and sat down on his lap, then handed the small paper figure to him.
"This is called ’Trigger Paper Figure,’ a defensive type of Cataclysmic treasure," she said.
"Its function is to automatically trigger when you’re attacked, forming a protective layer over your body," she continued.
"This defensive layer can withstand attacks from high-caliber firearms and last for over 30 seconds," she explained.
"Enough time for you to escape if you’re in danger...." she added.
As she spoke, Tang Feifei mentioned, "However, this is a life-saving item reserved for department heads and above."
"I’m lending it to you for now," she said.
"If it doesn’t trigger, you can return it to me later," she stated.
"If it does trigger... then you’ll slowly repay me with your body," she teased.
Hearing this, Qiu Tu paused and replied, "Is this thing that expensive? My body isn’t cheap."
Tang Feifei’s mouth curved into a smile at Qiu Tu’s jest; her eyes half-closed as she looked at him, like a leopardess eyeing her prey, "You really have no shame," she remarked.
"Tell me, how much do you charge per session?" she asked provocatively.
Qiu Tu cleared his throat, "No matter the cost, could you remove your hand first? It seems you’re grabbing my ’brother.’"
Sitting on Qiu Tu’s lap, Tang Feifei did not show the slightest embarrassment upon hearing his words. On the contrary, her eyes flickered with a dangerous glint, "What? Thinking of backing out?" she challenged.
Qiu Tu hastily shook his head, "No, that’s not it. It’s just... I remember you said that if I stayed to keep you company, you’d grant me two requests?"
"Does that offer still stand?" he inquired.
Hearing Qiu Tu’s words, Tang Feifei slowly lost her smile, looking at him with a chilly gaze, as if she anticipated what was coming, "Of course."
Qiu Tu smiled and said, "Then my first request is... you’re not allowed to touch me today."
For some reason, at that moment, Tang Feifei suddenly lost all interest.
She really enjoyed the thrill of the hunt, the delight in teasing her prey, or playing with it.
But when the prey consistently used little tricks to escape her pursuit, it just didn’t seem fun to her anymore.
Thinking this, Tang Feifei looked deeply at Qiu Tu, then slowly stood up from his lap.
She had a magnanimous nature; she didn’t fly into a rage or take back the Cataclysmic treasure she had just given Qiu Tu. Instead, she turned her back to him, picked up a square glass, and downed it in one go!
"You can go now," she said after finishing her drink.
After placing the glass down, Tang Feifei coldly dropped these words and turned towards the bedroom.
But then, at that moment,
suddenly, a robust body lunged at her from behind!
Caught off guard by the attack in her own room, and slightly disoriented from the alcohol, Tang Feifei couldn’t dodge in time and was tackled to the ground!
Her reflex was to struggle, but just then, Qiu Tu suddenly bit her ear and said in his deep, husky voice, "Bureau Chief, my second request is... you’re not allowed to resist!"
In that instant, Tang Feifei’s body stiffened. She felt a strange sensation she had never experienced before!
It was an entirely new feeling from the inside out!
