That night, Lu Yiwei drank himself into a stupor and passed out. This was the second time he had gotten drunk. He didn't know whether it was because of the alcohol or because he was intoxicated, but he had completely indulged himself.
Life was always too fast. The train stopped at the station in a hurry. Before he could enjoy the beautiful scenery around him, he rushed to the next station in a hurry. There was no end in sight. It seemed like a lifetime ago, but it was also yesterday.
He left each station in a hurry.
In his dream, he saw the entire 222 Provincial Road open to traffic, saw the Wanlong Mountain scenic area full of tourists, saw Longtou Company ringing the NASDAQ clock, and saw Su Meng waving at him with a smile …
The next day, he was awakened from his dream by a ray of dazzling sunlight. It was another sunny day. In the past, as soon as he opened his eyes, he would immediately get up to brush his teeth and wash his face, and then throw himself into a day of intense work. He had never enjoyed the taste of sunlight. But today, he stayed in bed, smelling the bright sunshine and listening to the noisy cicadas outside the window. He didn't want to return to reality from his dream.
He lit a cigarette, closed his eyes, and searched for fragmented memories in his mind. Many things were so clear, but also so vague. He came to Long 'an without knowing it, and now he left without knowing it. It was as if his fate was in the hands of others, and he had never really made a decision to do his own business. But could he?
It was boring to recall the past. The most important thing was to solve the problem in front of him quickly. There were still many things to do before he left. And he had to be fast, or it would be too late.
He quickly lifted the quilt, got out of bed, and washed up. During dinner, he told Xing Bingwen, "Ask Fu Jiangwei to come to my office."
After dinner, he went to the County party committee building. Fu Jiangwei was already waiting at the door. Lu Yiwei called him up and asked directly, "Have you thought about the thing I asked you to think about last time?"
Fu Jiangwei had already guessed it. After a while, he said, "Secretary Lu, I still want to follow you …"
Lu Yiwei waved his hand and said, "Don't be so hypocritical with me. Tell me your request directly, and I will do my best to satisfy you."
Fu Jiangwei saw that he was unusually serious and seemed to understand something. He asked worriedly, "Secretary Lu, are you really leaving?"
Lu Yiwei did not reply. He lit his cigarette and said, "It has nothing to do with me leaving. I've already said that your mission has been completed, so it's time for you to leave. Once I'm transferred one day, it'll be very awkward for you to stay, and there might be people who will take revenge on you. So, it's not a long-term solution. "
After hesitating for a long time, Fu Jiangwei said, "I will follow your arrangements."
"Where do you want to go? Back to Nanyang, Beizhou City, or the provincial capital? Tell me, as long as it's within my power."
Seeing that the other party had made up his mind, Fu Jiangwei said straightforwardly, "I want to go back to the Northern Prefecture. After all, my home is there. I have an old mother and child at home. I can take care of them when I go back."
Lu Yiwei nodded and said, "Understood. Continue working as a police officer or switch to politics?"
"I'm fine with anything. If possible, I'll stick to my old profession. I've been doing this for so many years, I might not be able to do anything else."
"Alright, I've noted it down. During this period of time, you should handle the matters in your hands as soon as possible, but don't let others know about it. "
"Understood."
After Fu Jiangwei left, Lu Yiwei called Qiu Yingxue over again. Ever since the photo incident, he had not been alone with her, and even deliberately avoided personal contact. Fortunately, nothing had happened. If anything had happened, it would have been ruined.
Qiu Yingxue seemed to be in a good mood today. She took the initiative and said, "Secretary Lu, I have good news to report to you. Yesterday, during a meeting in the city, Secretary Liang of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection singled out Long'an County for praise. He said that we were brave enough to face difficulties head-on. In the first half of the year, our case rate ranked first in the city, and we exceeded our quota. We'll definitely come back with a red flag by the end of the year. "
Lu Yiwei smiled and said, "This is all your credit. You should be rewarded."
Qiu Yingxue smiled and said, "I can't steal your credit. If it wasn't for your support, we wouldn't have such a brilliant performance. Do you need something from me? "
"Uh … You go first."
Qiu Yingxue put away her smile and looked elsewhere. An unnatural expression appeared on her face as she pursed her lips and said, "Yiwei, I might have to go."
Lu Yiwei was not surprised at all. He had expected it. Her father-in-law was the head of the Municipal Party Committee. Moreover, their relationship was not good. How could he stay at the grassroots level? Even if it was for the sake of his family, he would not stay for long. For her, it was a piece of cake to be transferred. "Back to the city?"
"Yes, back to the Municipal Party Committee."
"What position?"
"Deputy Secretary, temporarily in charge."
"Oh, Secretary Wang has other important tasks?"
"Yes, he will be the Deputy Secretary of the District Committee."
Qiu Yingxue was originally in the Municipal Party Committee. Later, she was transferred to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. Now that she was returning, it was obvious that she was being promoted. The Deputy Secretary taking charge was just a temporary transition, and it was not that eye-catching. After the election, she would naturally become the Secretary. Lu Yiwei was worried about how to tell her about himself. Now, it was all right. He did not need to explain too much. He smiled and said, "Congratulations, Secretary Qiu. You will be my leader in the future."
Qiu Yingxue did not smile. She looked at him for a moment and said, "Actually, I don't want to leave. It's a pleasure working with you, but sometimes I have no choice … "
"What's the point of working with me? You should have gone back long ago. I should thank you. Without your support, it is impossible to bite off one tough bone after another and conquer one bridgehead after another. Now, your mission is completed. Go back and manage your family well. It is best if you have a child. When you become a mother, you will know what happiness is. "
Qiu Yingxue's eyes became complicated. Lu Yiwei realized that what he said was not appropriate. He quickly said, "I don't mean that. I mean …"
Qiu Yingxue did not blame him. She shook her head and said, "Thank you. I understand. For me, every separation is very painful. Since I am leaving, I can tell you the truth. When I came down, I did it for you. I had imagined countless possibilities in my mind, but in the end, I did not take that step. You are different from other men. You have always stuck to your bottom line. So, I should thank you for not letting me choose not to return. "
Lu Yiwei smiled indifferently and didn't reply. "When are you leaving?"
"Not yet, but it should be soon. I have already suggested to Secretary Liang of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection to let Wei Peng from the Third Department of Discipline Inspection come down. He looks young, but he has a lot of experience. Other than that, he can also continue my unfinished business and help you advance your work. This person is worthy of your trust. "
Lu Yiwei wore a smile on the surface, but he was more or less reluctant in his heart. After a long silence, he said, "I will treat you to dinner tonight."
"Sure. Do you want to go to your dormitory? I want to eat your dishes. "
