Two days later.
It drizzled all night and finally stopped in the morning. Streaks of rainbows appeared in the clouds.
Dong Xuebing had returned to the Public Security Bureau's quarters yesterday. Some household appliances were not delivered, and Yu Qianqian was taking her exams. So, Dong Xuebing did not ask Yu Meixia to cook for him and asked her to stay in Hua Mei Estate for a few days. It's noon, and Dong Xuebing rummaged through the fridge to make some food for himself. After that, he crossed his legs and sat on the sofa to watch the news. It's rare for Dong Xuebing to have a break, and he needs to rest.
Beep beep beep, beep beep beep, the sound of a text message rang out.
Dong Xuebing looked at his phone and was stunned. It was Xie Huilan's number. Sister Xie will call him when she needs something. She had never sent him an SMS before. Dong Xuebing was stunned when he saw the contents of the SMS. "God of Plague, Xiao Dong. This nickname is too cool!"
Dong Xuebing knew the caller is not Xie Huilan and replied. "Xiao Hao?"
Sure enough, a text message beeped. "Hehe, brother-in-law, how did you know it was me?"
Dong Xuebing typed a line of words. "When did you hear your sister curse? Who told you that she is the God of Plague?"
Xie Hao: "Hehehe … I heard from my Sis that you had caused quite a commotion in the County."
Dong Xuebing slapped his forehead. Damn! Bad news spreads fast. How come Xiao Hao and Sister Xie know about this? So he typed, "Where's your sister?"
Xie Hao replied. "My Sis is upstairs. Oh, she asked me to inform you that she will be going to Yan Tai County these two days."
"Ah? A tourist? What's so interesting about this place? Who's coming? "
Xie Hao: "Only my Sis can go alone."
Dong Xuebing: "Is he on a business trip?"
Xie Hao: "It's a secret. Heh … you will know when my Sis arrives." Xie Hao added a smiley face.
Xie Huilan is coming? Dong Xuebing was glad that he had the foresight to buy a house. If not, Sister Xie might see Yu Meixia and Yu Qianqian at home. Now, both mother and daughter had moved out, and Dong Xuebing has nothing to fear. Vacation? Business trip? Never mind. I must treat Sister Xie well, and I can accompany her during these two days off.
When Dong Xuebing thought of Xie Huilan, he was distracted and thought of using her stockings to do bad things again.
Suddenly, Dong Xuebing's phone rang again. It was Qu Yunxuan's secretary, Xiao Tao.
"Hello, Brother Dong. Sister Qu had asked me to send you a car."
"Aiyo, so fast. Sorry for troubling you."
"It's no trouble at all. I'm just next to the electric pole at the entrance of the commercial street. Look, I'm …"
"Okay, wait for me there. I'll be right there."
Dong Xuebing grabbed his wallet and phone, put on his shoes, and hailed a cab to the commercial street.
When Dong Xuebing arrived, Xiao Tao was on the phone. She saw Dong Xuebing and immediately gave him the keys, receipt, and some documents before leaving. She told Dong Xuebing that she needs to go to the Provincial City and must return to Beijing before night. Dong Xuebing knew Yun De Auction Company's Spring Auction is about to start, and it's a busy time. He did not ask Xiao Tao to stay. After Xiao Tao left, Dong Xuebing looked at that silver Mercedes Benz R500L.
With her elegant curves and noble posture, she was simply like a great beauty.
In such a short period of time, many people had already noticed this car. They all raised their eyebrows and pointed at it as they evaluated it.
Dong Xuebing knew there are not many good cars in Yan Tai County, and this Mercedes-Benz is too eye-catching. He grabbed the steering wheel and looked around before stepping on the accelerator. The Mercedes-Benz sped around the County's outskirts. This MPV's speed is about the same as Aunt Xuan's S-Class Mercedes-Benz, and it is much faster than the Buick MPV.
This feels great!
Dong Xuebing went to the vehicle management department to apply for a license plate.
After all, they are from the same system, and it's not troublesome for Dong Xuebing to apply. The department leaders even came down to greet Dong Xuebing. Since Dong Xuebing has nothing to do, he chatted with them for a while. After a while, the topic changed to Yan Tai County's leadership changes. The County's Party Secretary was transferred away, and the Publicity Department Head was transferred out. Everyone is thinking about who will be taking over.
This kind of action is very sensitive, and many people, including Dong Xuebing, are nervous.
On the way home, Dong Xuebing thought about many things. Since the first day he came to Yan Tai County, everything he did was not smooth sailing. Although he managed to defeat the Publicity Department Head and the County's Party Secretary, these incidents were enough for Dong Xuebing to know that he must have a strong backing. If not, he will not be able to do anything he wants.
Backing? Where can I find someone to back me up?
Dong Xuebing had been close to Liang Chengpeng recently, but Chief Liang is not a member of the County's Party Committee.
That's right. Chief Liang has the backing of the County's Mayor, Xiang Daofa. Xiang Daofa should be the County's Party Secretary now. Furthermore, Xiang Daofa can become the County's Party Secretary because of Dong Xuebing. If Dong Xuebing did not investigate Jin Di Mansion, those photos, and other evidence, Chang Lei will not be toppled. Dong Xuebing had collected all the evidence, and Xiang Daofa should be grateful to him. If Dong Xuebing can get on Xiang Daofa's good side, his future will be smooth sailing!
Dong Xuebing felt his political wisdom had improved again. This is a good opportunity!
Dong Xuebing stopped his car and called Liang Chengpeng.
"Chief Liang, I'm Xiao Dong."
"Oh, Xuebing?"
"Errr … can I report to the Mayor if I have time?"
Liang Chengpeng immediately understood what Dong Xuebing wants. Dong Xuebing wants to get on Mayor Xiang's good side. "Haha … I will help you ask." Liang Chengpeng has a good impression of Dong Xuebing. His mother had gone to Beijing for surgery because of Dong Xuebing. That's why even if Dong Xuebing did not ask, Liang Chengpeng also wants to introduce Dong Xuebing to the Mayor. In the past, Dong Xuebing did not have this opportunity. But now, he has the excuse of getting rid of the County's Party Secretary.
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing waited anxiously. He thought that if Mayor Xiang is willing to meet him, he will stand on his side.
At the same time, Liang Chengpeng called Xiang Daofa.
Liang Chengpeng went straight to the point. "Mayor Xiang, our Bureau's Chief Dong had made a lot of contributions to the Jin Di Mansion case. From the start of the gambling raids to the arrest of the suspects, he had done everything. I heard the City is also monitoring this case, and I will let Xiao Dong report to you about the progress of the case." Liang Chengpeng did not mention Dong Xuebing's loyalty. He is creating an opportunity for Dong Xuebing to leave a good impression with Mayor Xiang.
Xiang Daofa frowned. "Xiao Dong? The one who started the case? "
Liang Chengpeng replied. "Yes. He is the one who found all the evidence."
Xiang Daofa shook his head. "He is the one who smashed the Mercedes Benz that Party Secretary Chang wants to investigate. He is too young. "
Liang Chengpeng paused for a while and said. "I admit that Xiao Dong is still immature in some areas, but he is good at handling cases. Not only this case, but he is also the one who solved the hacking of the County Government's website. He is very capable."
Xiang Daofa thought for a while. "The Jin Di Mansion case is closed, and there is no need to report to me."
Liang Chengpeng paused for a second. "Xiao Dong … are you …"
Xiang Daofa replied. "I will not meet you. Maybe in the future."
Liang Chengpeng could tell that although Dong Xuebing is the one who brought down the County's Party Secretary, Xiang Daofa does not have a good impression of him. Liang Chengpeng did not say anything and called Dong Xuebing. "Xuebing, Mayor Xiang is very busy and does not have the time. Let's meet another day."
Dong Xuebing was still waiting excitedly when he heard Liang Chengpeng. "I understand."
Liang Chengpeng hesitated and was afraid Dong Xuebing might have other thoughts. "This is the crucial time for the restructuring of the team. I will help you contact them in the future."
Dong Xuebing replied emotionlessly. "Chief Liang, thank you, but it's fine."
Liang Chengpeng knew Dong Xuebing's temper and sighed without saying anything. Liang Chengpeng also felt Xiang Daofa had handled this matter too hastily. He rejected a government official who approached him because of his personal preference? Liang Chengpeng was disappointed. Maybe Mayor Xiang felt he is going to be the County's top leader, and this kind of government official is dispensable. Anyway, he will have to listen to the County's top leader in the future, and that's why he doesn't want to meet Dong Xuebing. But Liang Chengpeng knew Chief Dong is not an ordinary person. He is capable and has a good background.
Dong Xuebing kept his phone, and his face changed. Xiang Daofa, that old bastard, is looking down on me? Dong Xuebing knows he is too young and impulsive. But after the County's Party Secretary was transferred away, he had helped Xiang Daofa a lot. If not, Xiang Daofa will not be the County's top leader in five to six years. Not only did you reject me, but you also don't want to meet me? What kind of person are you?!
Dong Xuebing is someone who will respect others tenfold. Since Xiang Daofa is treating him like this, Dong Xuebing will not try to curry favor with him. With his bad temper, he had never bowed down to anyone. Dong Xuebing is a vengeful person, and even if Xiang Daofa wants to meet him in the future, Dong Xuebing will not bother with him. Everyone has their dignity, and I can still live well without you. Do you think you are so great?
Dong Xuebing drove to the Public Security Quarters and thought of finding another backer.
But Dong Xuebing does not know the rest of the County's Party Committee members, and he has no chance to join them.
Backer … backer … who should I look for?
"Oh, Chief Dong?" Qin Yong and his wife walked over.
Dong Xuebing smiled and alighted from the car. He closed the door. "Chief Qin, Sister-in-law, did you just get off work?"
Qin Yong looked at the Mercedes MPV in shock. "I am not working today. Haha … you bought a car?"
Qin Yong's wife also looked at the car in shock. Even though she does not know much about cars, she knew this car will cost at least 1 million RMB. Qin Yong's wife was shocked. Even her husband's monthly salary is less than 5,000 RMB. How many years does he need to save to buy this Mercedes?
Dong Xuebing replied. "This is a friend's car, and I borrowed it."
Qin Yong praised. "This is a good car. 1 million RMB?"
Dong Xuebing laughed. "About the same. I am also not sure."
Qin Yong looked at Dong Xuebing and reevaluated him in his heart. Let's not talk about how Dong Xuebing got his hands on such a good car. Just Chief Dong's courage is not something ordinary people can compare to. Even if Qin Yong has the money to buy a Mercedes Benz, he will not dare to buy it. This car is too eye-catching. Look, many family members of the Party Committee members who just got off work are looking at this car. They should be admiring Chief Dong's courage.
Qin Yong felt he likes Dong Xuebing's character more and more. He likes Dong Xuebing's guts. So, Qin Yong grabbed Dong Xuebing's arm. "Chief Dong, I got you today. Hahaha … let's go to your Sister-in-law's house for dinner. I am not trying to brag, but even a 5-star hotel's chef can't cook as well as your Sister-in-law. She has been cooking for more than 10 years."
Qin Yong's wife smiled embarrassedly. "It's not as good as what Old Qin said."
Dong Xuebing knew he can't reject Qin Yong's hospitality and said. "Sorry to disturb you. I will go home to get a bottle of Maotai. I still have not thanked Brother Qin for yesterday." There is no one around, and Dong Xuebing did not mind speaking to Qin Yong. Even if they are in the same quarters, Dong Xuebing will still be careful with his words. After all, this is a government agency, and if they are discussing something important, they will choose restaurants and hotels.
Qin Yong knew Dong Xuebing is talking about Liu Li's promotion. "Sigh … I had said it's just a small matter."
Qin Family's house.
Qin Yong's wife had gone to prepare dinner, and Qin Yong and Dong Xuebing were smoking in the living room.
"Have you heard?" Qin Yong lowered his voice and smiled. "The City had just held a Party Committee meeting, and our County's Publicity Department Head had been appointed. It's a Deputy Mayor who is not a Party Committee member. He is a veteran, and it's not surprising that he will be appointed." Qin Yong was transferred from the Provincial Public Security Bureau, and it's not surprising that he has connections in the City. He should be more informed than others.
Dong Xuebing blinked. "Where is the Party Secretary?"
Even if there are no outsiders around, it's a taboo to discuss such sensitive topics. That's why Qin Yong replied softly. "Mayor Xiang will be appointed."
Dong Xuebing is furious. Damn! This old man is still the County's Publicity Department's Chief!
Qin Yong looks at Dong Xuebing. "Brother Dong, what's wrong?"
"Nothing." Dong Xuebing got the cold shoulder from Xiang Daofa, and he is too embarrassed to tell Xiang Daofa.
Qin Yong flicked his cigarette ash and said. "Many people had benefited from this incident. Haha … I think they should thank you, Brother Dong." Dong Xuebing was speechless. Chief Dong had defeated Jin Di Mansion alone, captured Qian Sen, and chased Chang Lei away. This is a legend.
Dong Xuebing thought to himself. What's there to thank me for? It's good enough that Xiang Daofa does not hate me.
Dong Xuebing changed the topic. "What about the Mayor's candidate?"
Speaking up to this point, Qin Yong's expression became a little strange. "The previous few appointments were fine, but the County Mayor's position is quite strange."
Dong Xuebing is thinking of getting a backer. Since the County's Party Secretary is not interested in him, the Mayor is the most suitable candidate. That's why Dong Xuebing wants to know who the new Mayor is. "Weird? Why is he called weird? Is he not from our County? "
Qin Yong nodded. "The higher-ups might be unhappy with our County, and they appointed a Mayor from nowhere."
Dong Xuebing looks at Qin Yong. What's so weird about being appointed from nowhere? When Dong Xuebing was with State Security, Chief Zhen was also appointed from nowhere.
Qin Yong explained. "He is not from the City or the Provincial Government. He is from … the higher-ups."
Dong Xuebing was stunned. "Central Government?"
Qin Yong smiled and nodded.
"Which department?"
"I don't know the details, and I had only heard about it from others."
Dong Xuebing's heart is heavy. Working in the Central Government's ministries and commissions should be arrogant. Will the other party accept him if he asks for help? Dong Xuebing shook his head as he thought about the timing and method of joining a faction. If he goes over like a fool, even if the other party is willing to accept him, they will not treat him seriously. What Dong Xuebing wants now is a reliable backer. The kind that will help him no matter what he does wrong. But this is impossible. Xiang Daofa is an old bastard. Dong Xuebing is indebted to him, but he still ignored him, let alone other people.
Dong Xuebing sighed in his heart. If the other party is not a reliable backer, he might as well not have one.
Ring … ring … ring … Qin Yong's phone rang.
"Sorry, Brother Dong. Have some tea first. I need to answer a call." Qin Yong turned and went into his room.
About ten minutes later, Qin Yong came out of his room, and his wife is bringing out plates of dishes. Qin Yong invited Dong Xuebing to the dining table and opened a bottle of Maotai. Both of them had a small glass of Maotai and started chatting.
"Sister-in-law, you are a hundred times better than me." Dong Xuebing praised.
Qin Yong's wife smiled. "You are flattering me. It's just some home-cooked food."
Qin Yong was surprised. "Chief Dong, you know how to cook?"
Dong Xuebing laughed. "That's right. I had cooked for myself every day in Beijing, but the taste is not as good. Haha … Sister-in-law, you are so awesome. I must learn cooking from you in the future." Dong Xuebing laughed.
Qin Yong's wife laughed. "I only know how to cook and take care of the family. Other than cooking, I can't do anything else."
Qin Yong shook his head. "You are wrong. What's wrong with being a woman? There are many capable women. "
Dong Xuebing nodded.
Qin Yong drank a few mouthfuls of Maotai and became talkative. "Brother Dong, someone told me that our Yan Tai County's Acting Mayor is a woman."
"Oh?" Dong Xuebing was surprised. There are not many women who can become the Acting Mayor.
Qin Yong laughed. "How old do you all think our new Mayor is?"
Qin Yong's wife asked. "50?"
Qin Yong shook his head.
Dong Xuebing asked. "40?"
"Let me tell you." Qin Yong raised three fingers. "She is only 30 years old. I was stunned when I heard this. A County Chief at 30 years old, and she is a woman. Haha … I don't dare to say she is the youngest County Chief in the entire province. Also, she is not a Youth League Committee or a Provincial Government. She is the County's Mayor, and I don't know what the higher-ups are thinking." Dong Xuebing was stunned.
Dong Xuebing was stunned. A 30-year-old Mayor? Indeed, it was too outrageous!
Qin Yong's wife interrupted. "I think Xuebing will also be a Divisional Chief at 30 years old."
Dong Xuebing quickly waved his hand. "Sister-in-law, stop flattering me. I have not even secured my Deputy Section Chief position, and I was almost demoted. Oh, Brother Qin, which department is our Mayor from?"
Qin Yong replied. "I think she is from the Central Publicity Department."
"Ah?" Dong Xuebing felt something was wrong. "Do you know her name?"
Qin Yong thought for a while. "I had forgotten. Her surname is … Xie? What's her name? "
Dong Xuebing was stunned. "Xie Huilan?"
Qin Yong paused for a second. "Yes … that's her name. Do you know her?"
Dong Xuebing cursed. Of course, he knows Xie Huilan is his girlfriend. Although he is not from the Finance Department or the Commission for Discipline Inspection, there are still a lot of problems. If someone knew Xie Huilan is his girlfriend, he will be transferred away. But Dong Xuebing did not drink too much and knew he should not talk about this. Although he is not from the Finance Department or the Commission for Discipline Inspection, he will be transferred away.
Dong Xuebing quickly replied. "I don't know her. I had only heard of her."
Qin Yong suddenly remembered. "Oh … I forgot Brother Dong had worked in Beijing in the past. Is Mayor Xie very famous?"
"Err … err …" Dong Xuebing thought to himself. Of course she is famous. Her father is a member of the Politburo, and her grandfather is the former General Secretary. She is the Deputy Section Chief of the Central Publicity Department's News Bureau before she is 30 years old. How can she not be famous? But Dong Xuebing did not say anything. Sister Xie is a low-profile person, and not many people know she is from the Xie family.
After dinner at Qin Yong's house, Dong Xuebing returned home and lay on his bed in a daze. He stared at the ceiling in a daze!
Fuck me!!
How come Sister Xie is the Mayor of Yan Tai County? This is too sudden!
Dong Xuebing finally understood what happened. Xie Hao had told him Xie Huilan will be arriving in two days. She is not on a holiday or a business trip. She is here to take up a post! Dong Xuebing was still regretting finding evidence against the County's Party Secretary and giving Xiang Daofa, that bastard. But now, Xie Huilan's arrival made Dong Xuebing feel better!
His girlfriend is going to be the new Mayor, and Dong Xuebing does not need to worry about who he can rely on!
