City Party Committee.
Along the corridor.
Dong Xuebing's phone rang when he walked out of the Party Committee Secretary's office. It seems to be a call from Jiangnan Province.
"Who is it?"
"You all are calling from the Provincial Government."
"I think it's from the Provincial Government. Just answer it."
"Ok. You go ahead first. I will go downstairs later."
"Ok. I will wait for you at the cafeteria entrance. Hurry up."
Xie Huilan walked out and met a Party Leader. She smiled and chatted with him for a while before taking the elevator down.
Dong Xuebing answered the call.
"Hello, who is it?"
"Is this Chief Dong?"
"Yes. You are?"
"Hi. I'm from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection Office."
"Oh, why are you looking for me?"
"I heard that the leaders from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection are coming to our Province for inspection. I am calling to ask if you need our help." The voice on the other side was neither too old nor too young, probably in his thirties. "Should we send someone down to cooperate with you?"
"No need. I will look around myself. We will talk about the rest in a few days. I will contact my comrades from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection if necessary."
"Then, that's fine."
"Ok. That's all for now."
"Ok. I won't disturb you anymore."
Dong Xuebing hung up and pressed the elevator button.
… …
Downstairs.
In the courtyard.
The cafeteria is diagonally opposite, and it's only a few steps away.
Dong Xuebing slowly walked towards the cafeteria and saw Xie Huilan, Xia Hui, and the rest of the City's leaders standing at the entrance. There are more than twenty people in the cafeteria, and they should be the City's Party Committee members and the leaders from the various departments. They had prepared lunch for the Provincial Government's leaders. But now, the Provincial Government's leaders had left, and they can only eat by themselves.
Dong Xuebing's arrival attracted everyone's attention. They turned to look at him and greeted him. The only similarity is they are very polite.
"Chief Dong."
"Mr. Dong."
Dong Xuebing smiled and greeted them back.
Xie Huilan pointed at Dong Xuebing. "Let me formally introduce my husband."
"Nice to meet you all. Just call me Xuebing. When I was working, I was a Commission for Discipline Inspection. Now, it's lunch break, and I am Huilan's husband. We are from the same city, and we are family. Please don't treat me as an outsider. I am also Xia Xing City's family member."
Everyone laughed.
Many people also had a good impression of him.
Firstly, Dong Xuebing did not put on airs as a higher-up. Secondly, the Provincial Government had made things difficult for Xia Xing City, and Dong Xuebing was the one who stood up for them.
Xie Huilan said. "Let's eat."
Everyone entered the cafeteria one after another.
The tables had already been set up. There were four or five tables of various sizes, and the dishes were sumptuous.
Dong Xuebing followed Xie Huilan to the first table, and Xie Huilan sat in the main seat. Dong Xuebing sat beside her. This is not his workplace, and it's useless for him to show off. Even if he tries to show off, it will only be to boost his wife's reputation.
It was time to eat.
There were dishes and wine.
But it's working hours, and no one dares to touch the wine.
But Dong Xuebing poured himself a glass of wine and stood up. He raised his glass at the first table and the few tables behind him. "You all should not drink during working hours, but as a family member, I will not mind. Let me give everyone a toast to thank you all for supporting my wife's work. I hope everyone can help each other in the future. Let's drink first."
Dong Xuebing finished his glass in two gulps.
"Thank you, Mr. Dong."
"Of course, of course."
"Mr. Dong, you can hold your liquor well."
Everyone hurriedly raised their cups and toasted with tea or soft drinks.
Many government officials who had sided with Xie Huilan after she took over did not feel anything. But Mayor Xia's subordinates and other government officials felt uncomfortable. The City's Party Secretary's husband is too domineering. His character is domineering, and his workplace is even more domineering. A leader of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection is giving them a toast to thank them for supporting Secretary Xie, and this is like a warning to them.
Mayor Xia was calm and even smiled as he chatted with Dong Xuebing.
But a few City's Party Committee members, who are in the same group as Mayor Xia, saw this and felt their tea tastes bitter. Some of them were not in a good mood, and some of them started to change their minds.
All of them were like this, and those neutral leaders and leaders under the Old Party Secretary's faction had a bigger change. They started to talk to Xie Huilan and Dong Xuebing, and their attitude towards Xie Huilan and Dong Xuebing had changed. They were more polite to Secretary Xie. This time, Dong Xuebing had threatened the Provincial Government, but he was also threatening the people in Xia Xing City. He even dares to criticize the Provincial Government's inspectors, let alone them!
Xia City's situation had changed slightly.
All these changes were brought about by Dong Xuebing due to his position.
Dong Xuebing is quite satisfied with the situation. He had come to Xia City to protect his wife and help her develop smoothly. This is Dong Xuebing's goal. Now, it seems he had achieved his goal, and he did not say anything else. Some things should only be said once, and it will have the opposite effect. He will leave the rest to Xie Huilan.
"Come, let's eat."
"Mr. Dong, let me give you a toast."
"I can't hold my liquor well. Let's drink tea instead of alcohol."
"Alright. Whatever you like. I'll drink."
The dinner was lively, and Dong Xuebing was the focus of the dinner. Firstly, it is because of his rank and status, and secondly, his performance today was too eye-catching.
After dinner.
The whole afternoon.
Some government officials and government employees who are not in the City Committee had heard about what happened at the City Committee's compound. When they heard the inspectors from the Provincial Government had criticized Party Secretary Xie, and Party Secretary Xie's husband used his status as a Central Commission for Discipline Inspection to scold the Provincial Government's leader, the government officials in Xia City were stunned. It's been years since such a dramatic incident happened in their City. Many of them wished they could be there to witness what happened. The Provincial Government's leader had scolded and left!
Moreover, many people also read some things that made their hearts beat faster!
The new Party Secretary's husband is a leader from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection?!
He is also in charge of Jiangnan Province's Eighth Supervision Office?!
How can this incident be kept a secret? In the blink of an eye, the news spread like wildfire!
