Chapter 230: Chapter 230 You're in Big Trouble
"The content in my phone consists of classified documents," Zhu Defu said gravely. "Just looking at them is a
serious crime—serious enough to strip you of your uniform."
Gao Min held the phone tightly, but Lin Fan remained unfazed. "Try it if you don’t believe me, but | advise you
not to make any rash moves."
"You're bluffing. A lowlife like you claims to be a civil servant... Even if by a long shot you are, breaking the law
knowing the law givesevery right to arrest you!"
Gao Min looked down on Lin Fan, clearly not buying that this opportunist was any sort of civil servant.
"Alright, Gao Min, since you insist on blowing things up, I'm gfor a little excitement."
Lin Fan smirked, and the moment he called out her name, Gao Min froze. "How do you know my name?"
"It’s not difficult. I not only know your name, but I also know the nof your Police Chief and that you're a
member of the Criminal Investigation Unit 6. Now, do you still think barging into my room and disturbing my
activities is a trivial matter?"

Lin Fan patted the unmoving Zhu Zhixuan under the sheets, where they were still amusingly connected. "You...
Don’t try to scare me; | can definitively say that you and the person under the sheets aren't married!"
Gao Min gritted her teeth, finding the situation rather complicated.
"That's right, she’s not my wife. | can also tell you that she is someone else’s wife, but what does that matter?
What law says | can’t sleep with someone else’s wife, as long as both parties are consenting adults?"
Lin Fan sneered, "We are old classmates, and | am very aware of all her details. Is it illegal to have a fling with an
old classmate? If that’s the case, then you really can arrest me. Id like to see what kind of incompetents work
under Sun Shi Quan."
At those words, Gao Min was stunned. Sun Shi Quan was their Deputy Chief, and knowing that Lin Fan seemed to
know everything made her regret kicking down the door even more. She could only stare at him: "Who exactly
are you?"
"Givethe phone, and let Sun Shi Quan tell you who | am!"
Lin Fan gestured to Gao Min, who after sthought, didn’t hand it over but turned the screen towards him.
Unconcerned, Lin Fan dialed Sun Shi Quan’s number directly from the contact list and soon, his voice came
through the speakerphone: "Mayor Lin, what brings you to call me?"
"Chief Sun, | had no choice but to call. | was enjoying my twith my girlfriend at a hotel when your Criminal
Investigation Unit 6 officer Gao Min busted through the door, claiming to be conducting a room check and
insisting thatsleeping with an old classmate is a crime, now she wants to arrestand accuseof illegal
transactions, also inspecting my phone."
Every word Lin Fan uttered was like a steel nail piercing Gao Min’s heart, freezing her in place, unable to stand,
sit, leave, or stay.
"Criminal Investigation unit doing room checks?"
Sun Shi Quan replied in confusion. Those tasks were usually handled by local police stations; when did criminal
investigators start dealing with them? And as Lin Fan clearly stated, Gao Min had forced her way in.
"Yes, she’s holding my phone right now. You know our Red Flag County is in the middle of bidding; the files on
this phone are classified, including the base price for this bid. So, after this, I'll cooperate with her to the police
station, but you might want to report to Mayor Zhu about the revaluation of the base price once it leaks—it will
require rehiring a provincial accounting firm to recalculate, and you'll likely bear the total loss and any legal
liabilities, as you know."

After finishing, Lin Fan leaned against the headboard, a cold smile watching the paralyzed Gao Min. His tirade
made it obvious even to a fool that she was in big trouble, for even if she could afford the losses, leaking state
secrets was a punishable offense.
"Gao Min... What are you doing?"
The voice over the phone, Sun Shi Quan, flared up instantly. Talking big, this was a severe dereliction of duty,
and with Lin Fan now a highly favored individual by Zhu Defu’s side, if this blew up, not just Gao Min but their
entire Criminal Investigation Team would bear a massive scandal.
"Reporting, Chief... We were apprehending a criminal... I... I..."
At a loss for words, Gao Min struggled to explain the situation. After capturing Lin Fan at the pool and feeling
vindictive, she had checked his hotel room number and burst in with her team, hoping to arrest the playboy and
charge him with illegal transactions for a fifteen-day detention. She hadn't anticipated bursting such a bubble.
"Who gave you the right to break in, to conduct room checks, and to inspect a state employee's phone privately?
Don’t you realize that’s a criminal act!"
Sun Shi Quan roared furiously, wishing he could leap through the phone.
"I... 1 didn’t know he... he was a public servant..."
With eyes welling up, Gao Min felt completely fallen.
