After Xia Jinhe left, Lu Yiwei felt empty in his heart. It was as if his entire being had been hollowed out. He gazed into the distance and raised his head. There was too much reluctance to part, written on the horizon of the morning dew and multicolored light.
"Yiwei." Yao Na looked at the absent-minded Lu Yiwei and said with a heavy heart, "Don't think too much about it. What will come will come. I hope that you can face it calmly. Look, even Rosa is cheering for you, so what are you afraid of? "
Lu Yiwei turned around and said with a smile, "Sister Na, thank you for being so concerned about me and arranging such a unique surprise for me. I am very touched. I, Lu Yiwei, have failed in life, but it's worth it to meet good friends like you! "
"Forget it!" Yao Na was an optimist. "I'm not as skilled as you. You're not as artistic as you are. But remember, people can be defeated, but willpower cannot. Understand? "
Lu Yiwei nodded his head in gratitude.
"But then again, I don't think Mayor Su will do anything to you. After all …" Yao Na was halfway through her sentence.
Lu Yiwei guessed what Yao Na wanted to express and said, "It's all in the past, so let's not talk about it anymore. Mayor Su can deal with me however he wants! But he needs to give me a reason. "
"Alright, it's good to see that you're fine!" Yao Na said, "I'm going to work. Come and look for me if you're free, alright?"
After Yao Na left, Niu Fuyong and the rest were still snoring in the bedroom. Lu Yiwei couldn't bear to disturb them, so he went straight to his office. Before he could sit down, Li Jianwei came in with a tearful face.
Seeing his expression, Lu Yiwei asked, "What's wrong, Director Li?"
"What's wrong? What do you think? "Li Jianwei sat on the sofa and sighed." Sigh! Your brother's life is really bitter. I wasn't born to be an official! "
Lu Yiwei knew what Li Jianwei wanted to say. He purposely said, "You're already the director of the government office. Are you still not satisfied?"
"Bullsh * t!" Li Jianwei jumped up emotionally. "Yiwei, haven't you heard?"
"Heard what?"
Li Jianwei moved closer to Lu Yiwei's face and said, "I heard that Mayor Su is going to be very attractive."
"What does being attractive have to do with you?"
"How is it not related?" Li Jianwei was flustered and exasperated. "I heard that this time, everyone related to County Zhang will be transferred. Sigh! My butt hasn't even warmed up yet, and I'm going to have to move again. "
Lu Yiwei was prepared for this. He pretended to be calm and asked, "How are we going to adjust them?"
"The specific plan isn't out yet, but I heard that Mayor Su has been working on it for the past two days. Sigh!" Li Jianwei sighed again and said, "When County Zhang arrived at Nanyang County, he didn't have many contacts. Isn't he obviously targeting us?"
"Who cares!" Lu Yiwei said calmly, "I've been to Dongwa Village. Why would I be afraid of going to other places? I'd be satisfied even if I was assigned to a cold office like the Archives Bureau or the Earthquake Bureau. "
Li Jianwei clicked his tongue and said, "You're really ambitious. But you're still young. You can afford it, but I can't. If this adjustment is made, it'll be very difficult for me to climb up again! "As he spoke, Li Jianwei's body began to tremble. It was obvious that he was really afraid this time.
Political battles were often cruel, especially when it was a showdown between two factions. Choosing which side to take was nothing more than a gamble of life. If the gamble was won, it would be a smooth journey and a meteoric rise. If the gamble was lost, it would be a mediocre existence. The current Lu Yiwei was no longer a young and energetic lad. He had become stronger and more mature. He could resist the temptation of Su Qiming's olive branch and stand behind Zhang Zhiyuan. If it were Li Jianwei, he would definitely not be able to do it.
Lu Yiwei comforted him, "Director Li, don't worry too much. County Zhang is just being investigated by the organization. It won't be long before he comes back. If Mayor Su really does that, it'll be too degrading. "
"Yiwei, do you really think County Zhang will come back? Stop dreaming! "Li Jianwei said," Back then, County Zhang said the same thing when he was taken away. But what happened after that? Did he come back? Yiwei, wake up. Don't be too serious. Let me give you a piece of advice. Hurry up and find Mayor Su before it's too late. I don't think he will do anything to you. After all, you and his daughter … "Li Jianwei did not continue.
Lu Yiwei smiled bitterly, "Back then, he was the one who separated me from his daughter. Do you think he will help me? Forget it. I'm not the Lu Yiwei from back then. I've let go of many things. If worst comes to worst, I can just start all over again! "
Li Jianwei suddenly grabbed Lu Yiwei's hand and said, "Yiwei, I'm begging you. You must help me this time. I can only work for one more term. Even if I have to retire after this term, it's worth it."
"How can I help you?" Lu Yiwei saw Li Jianwei's panicked eyes and felt bad.
"Help me to ask Mayor Su."
"Do you think he will listen to me?" Lu Yiwei said.
Li Jianwei said pitifully, "Yes, he will!"
"Brother!" Lu Yiwei said, "I can help if it's something else, but I can't help you with this! I'm in danger now. Why don't you go and find him yourself? "
"Can I do it? Will he see me? "Li Jianwei had no choice but to ask.
Lu Yiwei said, "I think you don't have to look for him. But if you are still worried, you can go and see Mayor Su and draw a clear line between you and County Zhang. Maybe you can save your political career. "
"What can I do?"
"What do you think?"
"… …"
When Lu Yiwei said this, he had mixed feelings. In the past, Li Jianwei could withstand the pressure and was not afraid of difficulties. But today, it was not easy for him. For the sake of his career, he could only do this.
Li Jianwei left without saying a word, leaving Lu Yiwei with too much suspense.
After Li Jianwei left, the Logistics Section Chief Gao Dakuan tiptoed in. Lu Yiwei saw that his face was even worse than Li Jianwei's and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Director Lu, I'm scared!" Gao Dakuan said with a sobbing tone. He almost cried.
Lu Yiwei felt it was funny and asked. "What are you afraid of?"
Gao Dakuan said: "Director Lu, because of the 50,000 RMB incident, Mayor Su even sent me to his office to reprimand me. Do you think I will be implicated? Also, I don't know which bastard reported that you arranged a job for my son. This morning, when I got to work, Chief Dong of the County's Party Committee Office called me over to ask about this. They are going to make a move on me! "
Lu Yiwei was shocked. Seems like they are going to get even with him. These bastards are not so hardworking when they are doing their jobs. But when they are involved in politics, they are like eunuchs. They can even dig out 18 generations of their ancestors' graves. Let's not talk about the 50,000 yuan. Su Qiming purposely brought this matter up, and his motive was indescribable. Not many people know about the job arranged for Gao Dakuan's son. Furthermore, it is just a temporary job. Is there a need to get so many people involved?
Lu Yiwei said angrily. "Dakuan, you don't need to worry about this. If Chief Dong asks you again, just tell him I am the one who arranged it. It's fine. Just tell him to look for me. "
Gao Dakuan replied. "Chief Lu, this … … this is not appropriate."
"Why is it not appropriate?!" Lu Yiwei said firmly. "No matter what he asks you in the future, just push it to me. Anyway, I am already like this."
Gao Dakuan stammered. "Lu Yiwei, there is one more thing, but I don't know if I should tell you."
"Speak!"
"Didn't I report to you about Mayor Tian buying an air conditioner, and you suppressed it. Yesterday afternoon, Mayor Tian's secretary came to me and asked for money. I don't dare to agree and said I need to discuss with you. I didn't expect that bastard to scold you. His words are too harsh. He said you are going to be fired soon. I want to ask if this is true? "
Lu Yiwei was stunned and shook his head. "I don't know."
"Sigh!" Gao Dakuan sighed. "It doesn't matter if I stay in the government office or not. If they want to adjust me, I will accept my fate. Chief Lu, no matter what happens in the future, I am still very grateful to you. Don't worry. I might not be capable, but I still have a backbone. If the higher-ups investigate, I will bear the consequences. I will not implicate you. "
Gao Dakuan's words warmed Lu Yiwei's heart. He nodded. "Thank you, Dakuan. I appreciate your kindness. At this critical juncture, everyone is just minding their own business, but you are still worrying about me. I am very surprised, but also very touched. But you can't do anything! Don't worry. If it really comes to that, I will speak up for you. "
Gao Dakuan bowed gratefully. "Chief Lu, you are a good person. Moreover, County Zhang is fine. He will definitely come back safely. Those people are short-sighted and are not worth mentioning. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave. "
After Gao Dakuan left, Lu Yiwei lit a cigarette and seriously compared Li Jianwei and Gao Dakuan. Li Jianwei had changed. He became very greedy for power. He felt that Li Jianwei would definitely go to Su Qiming to plead. On the contrary, Gao Dakuan made him look at him in a new light. He was right. A person could have nothing, but he could not have no backbone. A person could achieve nothing, but he could not have no dignity. A man should live for dignity!
All signs showed that Su Qiming was going to take action. Lu Yiwei wanted to cry but had no tears. His heart was as calm as water.
Zhang Zhiyuan suddenly left. Lu Yiwei had nothing to do. He opened the newspaper and stared at it for a long time, but his mind was not on the newspaper. Thinking of the injured Pan Chengjun, he picked up the phone on the desk and called Sanjo.
On the night after Pan Chengjun was rescued, Lu Yiwei asked Sanjo to pick up Pan Chengjun. The purpose of this was to show that he, Lu Yiwei, still completely trusted Sanjo and did not affect their relationship because of carelessness.
Sanjo said on the other end of the phone that Pan Chengjun had just suffered some superficial injuries. It was not a big deal. He would be fine after a few days of rest at home. He had already taken Pan Chengjun to his home, which was safer and more reassuring. He scolded Monkey on the other end of the phone. In the end, his heart softened and he pleaded for Monkey.
