On Monday morning, Qu Yunxuan returned home with her mother. They will be back in a week. Dong Xuebing was in high spirits as he watched his wife and daughter board their car. He was reminiscing about last night as he rushed to the Party School. He had money, an official, and now, he had a relationship. Tsk tsk … … These days … … were too comfortable. But when he remembered that today was Zhou Guoan's first day as the Branch Bureau Chief, he was worried. He did not know how Zhou Guoan would deal with him after the Party School training.
1 day … …
2 days … …
3 days … …
Soon, it was Dong Xuebing's 10th day at the Party School. He had accumulated 11 minutes of BACK.
Tuesday noon.
After the Social Studies lecture, Dong Xuebing packed his notes and left the class. He saw the rest of the Section leaders chatting and laughing with each other. He smiled and went to lunch alone. It was not that Dong Xuebing does not want to build a good relationship with his classmates. But these Section leaders were all from the Central Government or the Bureau. The lowest rank among them was the District Audit Bureau's Deputy Section Chief rank. When they introduced Dong Xuebing to each other, they heard that he was only a Deputy Section Chief rank and was working in a cold department like State Security. They did not want to interact with Dong Xuebing. It was not that they looked down on him. Being a Deputy Section Chief rank at such a young age was very eye-catching. But State Security did not have many interactions with other government departments.
After lunch, there was still some time before the afternoon classes.
Dong Xuebing found a sunny spot in a garden outside the Party School and sat down. He typed on his iPhone 4 and texted Aunt Xuan: "What did you have for lunch?"
1 minute later, Qu Yunxuan replied: "I am busy and have not eaten yet."
Dong Xuebing blinked: "Is your mother done with her drip? When are you going back to Beikou? I miss you. "
"… …" Aunt Xuan replied with an ellipsis.
"I am asking you. When are you coming back?"
"Tomorrow or the day after."
"Ok. I will wait for you. You carry on with your work." Dong Xuebing thought for a while and added: "Love you."
Beep, beep, beep. "… …" It was another series of ellipsis.
Dong Xuebing laughed and kept his phone. He took out his notes from his bag and wanted to revise the morning's lecture. These few days, Dong Xuebing had been listening attentively in class. But his foundation was not good, and he could only listen to what he understood and record what he did not understand.
"Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring," a hurried bell rang.
Dong Xuebing took out his phone and saw it was Chang Juan. "Sister Chang, what is it?"
Dong Xuebing heard an anxious voice. "Chief Dong, where are you? I've been calling you all morning! "
"I am at the Party School, and I am not allowed to use my phone during class. I switched it on during lunch. What's the matter?" Dong Xuebing frowned when he heard Chang Juan was in a hurry. He quickly closes his laptop.
"Something happened! You … you … "
"Just tell me. Why are you stuttering?"
Chang Juan paused for 2 seconds and said: "Chief Dong, I have an old classmate in the State Security's Commission for Discipline Inspection. This morning, she called me and asked me if Dong Xuebing is my leader. I told her yes, and then I asked her why she mentioned you. Guess what she said? She said that last night, the City's Commission for Discipline Inspection received a report. It was about Political Commissar Zhou … … No. It was about Bureau Chief Zhou's corruption. There was no evidence in the report. She only mentioned how Zhou Guoan had been corrupted. "
Dong Xuebing was confused. "So be it. What has it got to do with me?"
Zhou Guoan was different from Yan Liang. He does not have a good reputation among his subordinates. There were rumors that when his son got married, people from all departments had given him gifts. Zhou Guoan did not reject any gifts. Later on, there was a Deputy Bureau Chief who did not give him any gifts. In the end, the next week, Zhou Guoan found trouble with that Deputy Bureau Chief and transferred him to the archives room. Of course, these were rumors from Tan Limei. Dong Xuebing was not sure if it was true. But from Zhou Guoan's attitude towards him for the past 2 weeks, Dong Xuebing felt he was not clean. That's why it was normal for someone to report him. But without evidence, the City's Commission for Discipline Inspection will not investigate a branch bureau's leader. They will throw the report away. It was useless even if they reported Zhou Guoan.
"Chief Dong, you … … you really don't know?"
"What do I know?"
Chang Juan said: "I knew it was not you. Seems like someone … …"
Dong Xuebing interrupted: "Wait … … What do you mean it was not me?"
Chang Juan heaved a sigh of relief and said something shocking, "My classmate said that the report letter was signed … by you!"
"What?!" Dong Xuebing's mind went blank. "Me? Are you sure it was me?! "
"Yes. The Commission for Discipline Inspection should be keeping this a secret. But after I received the call this morning, everyone in the bureau knows about it. Chief Zhou should also know about it … … Chief Dong, I also believe it was not you. Even if there is no evidence, you should not write your name on the report. But … … But because you had a conflict with Chief Zhou, many people believe it!"
Dong Xuebing scolded: "What the hell is this?! I wrote the report?! This is bullshit! "
If it was an anonymous report, it was fine. No one would know who wrote it. But a report written by a subordinate's real name … … It was a subordinate reporting his superior. This was a taboo in the government service. Even if there was evidence, very few subordinates would report their superiors, unless they wanted to fight to the bitter end!
It was too obvious. Someone was trying to frame him!
Who the hell was so evil?! Did I offend you?! Why did you write my name?!
"Chief Dong, don't be anxious." Chang Juan said softly: "I had discussed with Xiao Tan and Panwei earlier. We all felt this is Guo Shunjie's doing. He wants to use this report to aggravate the conflict between you and Chief Zhou. He wants to make use of Chief Zhou to … … Errr … … I am just guessing. I don't know if I am right. But Guo Shunjie had been very low-key at work today. He started typing documents on his PC and did not say a word. This is too abnormal."
Dong Xuebing was stunned, and his face turned black!
Dong Xuebing counted with his fingers. He had offended at most two people in the Western District Branch. One was Guo Shunjie, and the other was Zhou Guoan. Zhou Guoan would not report him personally. Then the person who wanted to frame Dong Xuebing must be Guo Shunjie. This was 90% Guo Shunjie's doing! This report will not affect Zhou Guoan's career. Instead, it will increase Zhou Guoan's prejudice against Dong Xuebing. Guo Shunjie will be the one who benefits from this!
This bastard!!
Are you addicted to framing me?!
Dong Xuebing took a few deep breaths and gritted his teeth: "Sister Chang, what is the reaction from Chief Zhou and Chief Xu? Did they believe me? "
Chang Juan replied: "I am not sure. This morning is the Party Committee meeting, and they are still in the meeting now. I have not seen Chief Zhou and Chief Xu."
"Sister Chang, that's all. Thank you."
"Don't mention it. Chief, don't mention it. I will report to you if there are any updates."
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing quickly called Xu Yan's number. But her phone was switched off. The Party Committee meeting should still be ongoing. Dong Xuebing was furious and walked around the park bench with his phone. He dialed Xu Yan's number every ten seconds. Her phone is switched off, switched off, and still switched off!
What should I do? The impact of this incident was too bad! If he could not explain himself, then he … …
Dong Xuebing hated to be framed. But within two weeks, he had been framed twice. Even a man with a good temper would not be able to tolerate this!
Dong Xuebing sat on the bench and called Xu Yan again. Ring … ring … the line got through!
"Hello, Chief Xu. I'm Dong Xuebing." Xu Yan nodded, and Dong Xuebing quickly explained. "I am not the one who wrote that letter. If I want to report Chief Zhou, I will not be stupid enough to write my name on it. It must be Guo Shunjie. He is also the one who changed the meeting documents. He is trying to frame me and wants me to … …" Xu Yan nodded and said. Dong Xuebing quickly explained. Xu Yan nodded.
"Sigh … … I also know it is not you. But this is not important anymore."
"… … What do you mean?"
Xu Yan replied: "During the Party Committee meeting, Chief Zhou had proposed an appointment. Old Song and I had objected to it, but … …"
Dong Xuebing was stunned. "Appointment?"
"Guo Shunjie will be appointed as the Deputy Chief of the General Affairs Office. Your position … … will be replaced."
What? Dong Xuebing was stunned.
Xu Yan replied helplessly. "Xiao Dong, I am the one who promoted you, and I will not beat around the bush. Chief Zhou's reason is that the General Affairs Office has a lot of work to do, and you had gone to the Party School for training. Someone needs to be the leader, and that's why he pushed Guo Shunjie to be the leader. You … … on the surface, he said that you will be given other work after you return from the Party School. But that will not happen. You will continue to work in the General Affairs Office, and your salary will still be Deputy Section Chief rank.
Dong Xuebing listened in a daze and did not say a word.
Xu Yan did not expect Zhou Guoan's first move would be Dong Xuebing, and Zhou Guoan's attitude was so harsh. Actually, Xu Yan had also lost her temper during the Party Committee meeting. She had recommended Dong Xuebing to be promoted, and if she burned Dong Xuebing, it will be the same as slapping her in the face. But she and Commission for Discipline Inspection Secretary Song Shoujie do not have much influence. That's why they could only watch Dong Xuebing get appointed.
Removed from his position?
Become an ordinary staff member?
He will have to listen to Guo Shunjie from now on?!
Dong Xuebing clenched his fists tightly. He was furious! Guo Shunjie! Zhou Guoan! F * * k you all!
You want to remove me from my position?
Not so easy!
