Pita Gus Sowakula scored a try as the Chiefs bounced into the top four on the Super Rugby Pacific ladder after holding on for a 27-25 nail-biting victory over the Reds in Brisbane.
A contentious 76th minute red card to replacement Samipeni Finau ensured some late drama at Suncorp Stadium, but the Chiefs managed to cling on for a win.
The sides were locked 13-all at the half-time break, before the Chiefs charged to the lead courtesy of multiple yellow cards to the hosts.
Meanwhile, the Blues have narrowly defeated the Force 22-18, despite not scoring after the 29th minute.
In-form winger Manasa Mataele scored the first try of the match for the Force.
The Blues move to first on the ladder and extend their unbeaten run to nine matches.
