Fan Chunfang's words touched the softest part of his heart. He gulped and said, "Fangfang, you've worked hard. You've never had a good day with me. Do you regret it? "
"Regret? Why would I regret it? I'm so happy. Now that I think about it, it's like a dream. You're so outstanding and you like so many people. In the end, you chose me and Langlang. I'm easily satisfied and I feel very happy now. If you can stay by my side, I'll have no more desires. You and our son are enough. "
The more she said, the more upset Lu Yiwei felt. He smiled and said, "Soon. Once I get through the Long An incident, I'll think of a way to transfer back to River East. We'll never be separated again."
Fan Chunfang immediately said, "Dad talked about you today. He said he asked Uncle Feng to think of a way to transfer you back to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. From his tone, it shouldn't be a big problem. Returning to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection is not a bad idea. What do you think? "
Lu Yiwei was silent for a moment and said, "Fangfang, I know Dad is being kind, but I really don't want to go back. Once I enter the Commission for Discipline Inspection, it's hard to get out. I'm still young and don't want to retire early. Besides, the County party committee secretary was transferred to the Commission for Discipline Inspection. It's rare. So, tell Dad that I appreciate the thought but please give me some time. "
Fan Chunfang was reluctant but she softened when she thought of his future. Men should be ambitious. If he stayed by her side, he would be unhappy all the time. It was better to let him work hard outside. He could reach a certain height and bring honor to his ancestors. "Alright, I'll pass the message to him for you."
"Thank you for understanding me."
"There's no need to be so polite between husband and wife. If I didn't understand you, I wouldn't have let you go back then."
Lu Yiwei glanced at Qiu Yingxue's photo and his heart ached. He wanted to say it a few times but could not. When he was about to end the call, he said, "Fangfang, you're right. We're husband and wife. We should go through thick and thin together. Trust is the most basic. Maybe you'll hear some rumors and see some distorted facts. But you must be firm. It's not what you think."
Fan Chunfang was puzzled and asked in astonishment, "What are you talking about?"
"Oh, it's nothing. I'm just saying. Someone's knocking on the door. Let's talk later. "
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yiwei hurriedly covered the photo with the newspaper and went to the living room to open the door. Qiu Yingxue appeared at the door with a plate of snacks. He smiled and said, "You must be hungry. Try some of the snacks I made." As he said that, he picked up a piece and brought it to his mouth. He instinctively took a step back.
Qiu Yingxue was stunned. She quickly came in and sat on the sofa. She frowned and said, "How many cigarettes have you smoked? The room is full of cigarettes." As she spoke, she saw a book fall on the floor of the study. She got up and walked in.
Lu Yiwei quickly chased after her and was about to block the photo when she found out.
The smile on Qiu Yingxue's face instantly froze. She reached out her hand, but Lu Yiwei covered it completely and said, "Let's go out and try your desserts …"
Qiu Yingxue ignored him and forcibly pulled the photo out from under the newspaper. Her face turned pale. She looked up at him and then walked out to the balcony. She seemed to understand something. Her eyes became chaotic. She angrily tore the photo and bit her lips, "Who is this? Is this a deliberate trap?"
Anyway, she saw it. Lu Yiwei said calmly, "Yingxue, someone is targeting me. It has nothing to do with you. Now that things have come to this, you and I must face it honestly and be prepared to deal with it. I have already done the work for Fan Chunfang. Even if she saw it, she should believe me. The key is your husband and father-in-law … If they saw it, I'm afraid … "
Qiu Yingxue deeply blamed herself and said, "It's all my fault. I have caused you so much trouble. Don't worry. I will explain it to them. "
"Do you think you can explain it clearly?"
"There's nothing between us. What's there to be afraid of? If they want to push the blame onto us, I won't make things difficult for you. I will bear the responsibility alone."
Lu Yiwei returned to the sofa in frustration and sat down, "So far, the photo has only been sent to me. I don't care if they want to force me to submit. They can't threaten me at all. The main problem is you. If this matter were to spread, it would be extremely disadvantageous to you. Considering this, I can choose to stop or even transfer. "
Qiu Yingxue did not speak for a long time. She leaned on the door frame and smiled, "It's too despicable. I must not give in. You don't have to think about me. The key is you. If it affects your future, I will be a sinner. I'm really sorry. "
"Now is not the time to talk about this. The problem is how to face it."
There was another period of silence. Qiu Yingxue said after a long time, "I will explain to my father-in-law and husband. Everything else will be done." With that said, she rushed out of the door.
Looking at the delicately made snacks on the table, Lu Yiwei sighed.
The next few days were peaceful. Qiu Yingxue did not come to his dormitory again. Even if it was a meeting, she would sit there and not make eye contact. It was obvious that she was under a lot of pressure. Lu Yiwei was the same.
She did not stop there. She focused on her work and interrogated seven cadres in a day.
Zhang Tengfei appeared in Lu Yiwei's office again with a draft plan in his hand. "Secretary Lu, we have decided to hold a county-wide political and legal work meeting tomorrow morning. We will invite Secretary Cao Jingchuan to attend. Take a look at the plan. If it's not suitable, I will make changes."
Lu Yiwei looked at him. Zhang Tengfei smiled as if nothing had happened. He flipped through it and said, "Alright. Let's go with the plan."
"Alright. There are three items on the agenda tomorrow. I will read the plan, you arrange the deployment, and Secretary Cao will give a speech. Do you need anything else?"
"That's it."
"Alright. I will inform Director Xing. Let's set the meeting for tomorrow morning at 9 am."
Before he left, Lu Yiwei caught an important message from Zhang Tengfei's meaningful gaze. What happened two days ago must be related to him. It was clear that Zhang Tengfei was the one behind the scenes.
At night, the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection team met Lu Yiwei and said, "Secretary Lu, we have found out that Zhang Tengfei had committed serious violations of the law. We have a lot of evidence. We had reported this matter to Secretary Liang, and he had consulted Secretary Shao of the Municipal Party Committee. We have reached an agreement to implement the two regulations. "
Lu Yiwei did not know if he was happy or sad when he heard this news. But this case was registered in the province, and it was impossible to reverse it. "I have no objections. When do you plan to take action?"
