"How's it going?"
Lu Yiwei hurriedly submitted the written report. He exchanged glances with Dong Xiaoning and said, "Secretary Shao, the scene of the accident has been cleaned up at around 2 PM this afternoon, and traffic has resumed. The compensation work has also started, and 80% of the families have received compensation. I will do a lot of work to deal with this matter properly. "
Shao Zhongjie placed the report aside and said, "Yiwei, you're new here, and this incident has nothing to do with you. But you're the Secretary of Long 'an's County party committee, and the accident happened in Long' an's territory. So no matter what, you're responsible for it. Fortunately, it's been dealt with in time, but that doesn't mean that we won't pursue the responsibility of the relevant personnel. "
"Mayor Dong has given me some suggestions, and I agree with it. This matter must be suppressed and resolved internally. The city would send an investigation team to oversee this matter, and all the people involved would be dealt with severely. This would serve as a warning to face up to the consequences. What do you think? "
"Secretary Shao, Mayor Dong, I'm mainly responsible for this matter. I did not make a judgment beforehand, and I'll accept your criticism. I'll follow the organization's decision." Lu Yiwei said with shame.
Shao Zhongjie turned to Dong Xiaoning and asked, "How's the public opinion?"
Dong Xiaoning said, "I've called the Provincial Party Committee's Publicity Department later today, and he has ordered the Internet Administration Center to pay attention to the news on the internet. If there's any news about Long 'an, they must immediately remove it or block it."
"Can you control the information?" Shao Zhongjie asked worriedly.
"Uhh … it should be the same on the internet, but mobile devices are not easy to monitor."
"No matter what, we must monitor it closely. We can't let anyone slip through the net. Nowadays, communication is too advanced, and it will become a hot topic if we're not careful."
Both of them did not want this matter to be leaked out. Once it's leaked, it will be troublesome to deal with it, and it will be hard for them to defend themselves.
As they were talking, Shao Zhongjie's secretary, Lu Wenzhe, knocked on the door and came in. He walked to the front and whispered a few words. Before he could respond, a hearty laughter came from outside. Su Qiming appeared at the door and said, "Secretary Shao, I'm busy."
Shao Zhongjie quickly got up and smiled. "Oh, it's Mayor Su. What brings you here?"
Su Qiming took the initiative to shake her hand and said, "I happened to be passing by, so I came to see you."
Shao Zhongjie rolled his eyes and said, "You've taken a long detour. Haha."
Dong Xiaoning stood up and shook hands with him. "Mayor Su, you're getting younger and more beautiful."
Su Qiming's arrival surprised Lu Yiwei. He stood up and nodded with a smile. Su Qiming frowned slightly when he saw him like this. He walked over and touched his hand, his heart aching. "What's wrong?"
Lu Yiwei quickly hid his hand and said, "It's nothing, I accidentally touched it."
Dong Xiaoning understood the situation and said, "Mayor Su, please continue chatting. I have something to take care of."
"Alright, you go ahead. I'll treat you the next time I visit River East."
Dong Xiaoning pursed her lips and smiled. She glanced at Lu Yiwei and left.
Lu Yiwei was put in a difficult position. He did not know if he should stay or leave. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Secretary Shao, Mayor Su, please continue chatting. I'll wait outside."
Su Qiming immediately said, "Sit, it's fine."
Shao Zhongjie guessed why he was here. He sat down and asked, "Have you been busy lately?"
Su Qiming pretended to be sad and said, "Don't mention it. There's a bunch of things to do at the end of the year. I'm so busy that I can't even take a breather." Su Qiming pretended to be sad and said, "Don't mention it. There's a bunch of things to do at the end of the year. I'm too busy.
I don't even have a chance to breathe. "Shao Zhongjie smiled.
"Haha, why? You don't welcome your old classmate?"
"Of course I do. I can't wait to welcome you. Have you eaten?"
"I have. I'm just passing by. I'll be on my way." He glanced at Lu Yiwei and lowered his voice. "I heard something happened in Long 'an?"
Su Qiming made it sound like a small matter to show his attitude. Shao Zhongjie squinted. "Mayor Su, you're quite well-informed. How did you find out so quickly?"
"I heard it from someone else."
"Oh, thank you for your concern. It's been taken care of."
Su Qiming nodded thoughtfully. "That's good. If you need my help, just let me know."
Shao Zhongjie smiled. "I happen to be in need of money. Should I borrow some from you?"
Su Qiming said boldly, "What's this? We're brothers. We should help each other and take care of each other. If you need money, just let me know."
"I'm just kidding. I can't borrow money from you no matter what."
The two chatted for a while. Su Qiming looked at his watch and stood up. "I won't bother you then. The car is waiting downstairs. I'll be on my way."
"You're leaving already?"
"Of course. There's a project coordination meeting tonight."
"Alright. I won't keep you then."
"Do you want Yiwei to see me off?"
Shao Zhongjie smiled and did not say anything.
Su Qiming brought Lu Yiwei downstairs and led him to a secluded corner. He asked anxiously, "Is it a big problem?"
As expected, Su Qiming had come all the way from Bei Zhou City for him. Lu Yiwei was touched. He shook his head and said, "It's almost settled."
Su Qiming breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. I was shocked when I heard about it, so I hurried over. I planned to meet Shao Zhongjie before going to Long 'an. I didn't expect to meet you here. You should've been here a long time ago. How did you get yourself into this state? "
Lu Yiwei smiled tiredly. "Thank you. I'm fine. It's just a small injury."
Su Qiming looked at him with gentle eyes. "Don't work too hard. You're just here for a temporary transition. Old Bai told me that he'll transfer you back to River East next year when the time is right. Don't be afraid. Even if the sky falls, there will be others to hold it up. You've heard Old Shao's opinion. He won't disrespect me. "
"Mhm."
"Old Shao and my college classmate lived in the same dormitory. He has a lot of strengths but also a lot of weaknesses. His family was poor when he was studying. He had a strong sense of inferiority. He was a little narrow-minded and vengeful. Everyone in our dormitory bullied him except me. We're pretty close. With me around, he won't do anything to you. He wouldn't dare to. However, you're unfamiliar with this place, so you have to be careful at all times. Feel free to tell me if you have any difficulties. I'm his classmate after all. I'll more or less give him face. "
"Thank you, Mayor Su."
