After They Read My Mind, the Bigwigs of the Whole Province Begged Me to Stop Gossiping

After three years of burning the midnight oil to pass the civil service exam, Lin Mo finally lands a secure job in the disciplinary commission’s archives. He plans to keep his head down and coast until retirement, but unexpectedly binds himself to the Officialdom Gossip System! At a ceremony honoring a major provincial project, the mayor delivers an impassioned speech. Inside, Lin Mo is screaming like a startled groundhog: Whoa! This old geezer is talking about integrity onstage, but he has thirty million in cash stuffed inside the load-bearing walls at home and is keeping four university students as mistresses. His eldest daughter is the same age as his mistress! As soon as the mayor steps offstage, the disciplinary commission brings in a demolition crew to smash his walls. The richest man in Jinghai City attends a charity gala. Munching on a little cake, Lin Mo remarks: Tsk, what a good Samaritan. In truth, he made his fortune through sand and gravel and forced demolitions. That missing journalist from over a decade ago is bricked into the third pier of the sea-crossing bridge! That very night, the tycoon is arrested, and the bridge pier is excavated. From corrupt officials and underworld kingpins to double agents, the entire web of business, government, and organized crime in Handong Province trembles at Lin Mo’s gossip. Provincial leaders beg: Please, just transfer her somewhere else! If she keeps spilling the tea, the entire Handong Province leadership team will be holding its standing committee meetings in prison!
