The compartment was filled with a certain odor. Ryan Bolton checked the man's pulse and immediately determined that the man had clearly suffered from sudden sexual exhaustion. Ryan Bolton secretly chuckled to himself—he hadn't expected this man and woman to sneak here for such an illicit act. He quickly took off the man's clothes, his fingers moving like the wind, pressing along his Tongtian, Yuzhen, Tianzhu, Fengmen, and Guanyuan acupoints in succession. Then he helped the man sit up in the back seat, and continued pressing his Tanzhong and Qihai points...

Outside the car, the policewoman sat on the ground in a daze, muttering, "It's over, it's over..."

Sophie Harris heard the constant crackling sounds from inside the jeep, feeling both curious and worried, not knowing what was happening inside. Everyone has curiosity, and girls often even more so. She wanted to go over and take a look, but seeing the policewoman looking so distraught, she really couldn't bear to leave her. In the moonlight, she could vaguely see that the policewoman had a beautiful face and looked about twenty-eight or twenty-nine years old, with two bars and two stars on her shoulder. Sophie Harris came from an official family and knew a bit about police ranks, so she realized this policewoman was a Second-Class Superintendent, likely a section-level cadre. In Jiangzhou City, that might not be much, but in Chunyang County, such a rank meant she was a senior leader in the county public security bureau. What could possibly frighten this police superintendent so much? Sophie Harris had a vague sense of foreboding in her heart.

Inside the car, Ryan Bolton raised his right palm, channeling his inner strength into it, and suddenly struck the top of the man's head. The man's body shuddered, and he opened his eyes as if waking from a dream. When he saw that the person in front of him was a young man, he cried out in alarm, "Who are you?"

Ryan Bolton lazily stretched his arms. "Your savior!" His eyes had already adjusted to the darkness inside the car, and he felt that the man's features looked somewhat familiar.

Only then did the man recall what had just happened. He looked down at himself, still sitting half-naked in the car. He hurriedly pulled up his pants and put on his shirt. His panic quickly subsided, and he took a deep breath. Through the car window, he saw the police superintendent still sitting on the ground in a daze, while a graceful young woman was comforting her. For a moment, his mind was in turmoil. He fumbled in the car for a pack of Soft Zhonghua cigarettes, took one out, lit it, took a deep drag, and exhaled a cloud of smoke, as if pondering something.

Ryan Bolton was about to push open the car door and get out, but the man grabbed his arm and whispered, "Comrade, what happened to me just now?"

Ryan Bolton secretly despised him. He'd seen shameless people before, but never anyone this shameless. You know exactly what you did, yet you ask someone else? But Ryan Bolton had clearly misunderstood his meaning, and coldly replied, "Sudden sexual exhaustion! If you hadn't met me, you might already be dead!"

The man fell silent again, taking deep drags on his cigarette. The cigarette quickly burned down to the end. Ryan Bolton couldn't stand the thick smoke inside any longer and forcefully pushed open the car door.

"Comrade, thank you..."

Ryan Bolton's heart suddenly trembled. That voice was all too familiar. He abruptly turned around, stared at the face shrouded in smoke, and uttered a sentence that made the other man's heart skip a beat: Secretary Thompson! Ryan Bolton never would have imagined that the man who, on Valentine's night, was having a tryst with a police superintendent by the Chunshui River in a jeep, was actually the county party secretary of Chunyang County, Matthew Thompson.

Matthew Thompson had originally thought that this young man might not recognize him, but unexpectedly, the other party still exposed his identity. For a moment, Matthew Thompson's mind went completely blank. As the county party secretary and with the deputy captain of the county public security bureau's criminal investigation team outside, having a car tryst wasn't such a big deal. The unlucky part was that his overworked body was too weak, and in such a tense and exciting moment, he suffered sudden sexual exhaustion. At this moment, Matthew Thompson's heart was filled with regret. He shouldn't have drunk that glass of wine, and even more so shouldn't have listened to Julia Reed's suggestion to come to the Chunshui River for excitement. What kind of person was he? A good cadre who had received years of education from the Party and the country, a beloved leader of the people, a political star about to be promoted from county level to deputy department level—yet he had fallen because of this thing between his legs.

What frightened Matthew Thompson was that after the young man recognized his identity, he actually sat back down in the car, forcefully closed the door, and carefully scrutinized him from head to toe.

Matthew Thompson, after all, was a seasoned veteran. His rise from a township enterprise secretary to his current position was no accident. In this world, there is no problem that can't be solved—as long as you find the right entry point, any issue can be resolved. The young man in front of him was at most twenty years old, even younger than his second son. When it came to social experience, he was probably worlds apart from himself. Matthew Thompson smiled and said, "Comrade, you must have mistaken me for someone else. But no matter what, I will never forget you, my savior." He leaned over, took a stack of cash from the glove compartment, and handed it to Ryan Bolton: "Just a small token of appreciation!" Even when facing his savior, Secretary Thompson still habitually put on his official airs. Although he tried hard to make his voice sound kind and friendly, if you listened carefully, there was still that unmistakable tone of superiority.
