… …
The scene in front of Dong Xuebing changed.
"Chief Zhou."
"Chief Zhou."
"Chief Zhou."
Zhou Changchun returned to the main office with a pale face. Dong Xuebing could hear Zhou Changchun calling out to him. Other than Zhuang Zhi, who had stood up due to Zhou Changchun's presence, the rest, including Guo Panwei and Guo Shunjie, were still sitting in their seats. Their faces were no longer trembling with fear and respect. It was replaced with a fake calmness.
Zhou Changchun suppressed his anger and looked at Guo Panwei. "Panwei, come to my office for a while."
Guo Panwei pointed to the document in his hands apologetically. "I'm sorry Chief Zhou. The bureau needs this document and wants me to send it over."
Guo Shunjie immediately lowered his head and sneered in his heart. Who will listen to you now?
When Tan Limei first entered the office, she had said the wrong things to Zhou Changchun. That's why she was not smiling today. She was the same as Changjuan and Old Yan. She did not look at Zhou Changchun. Anyway, Zhou Changchun will no longer be in charge of them in the future. Who will care about him? Who cares about someone who might have financial problems? Those who were still trying to worm their way into Zhou Changchun's good graces were the real idiots!
Zhou Changchun knew what was going on and laughed coldly. "Fine. Fine." He had been in the government service for so many years and knew what everyone was thinking. That's right. Who dares to get close to him now? No one! This was the fickleness of human nature. Everyone was in trouble.
But the next second, Zhou Changchun and the few staff members from the General Affairs Office were shocked.
"Chief Zhou, I am free now. Do you need to tidy up your office? Let me help you. " Dong Xuebing smiled and ran over to Zhou Changchun. He helped him up and said: "You have just been discharged from the hospital. You must be careful. Come, let me help you. Watch your steps carefully!" Zhou Changchun was stunned.
Zhou Changchun was stunned and could not react. "No need. I can walk by myself."
Dong Xuebing said: "Then let me change a bucket of water for you. Sorry. I also did not know you will be discharged today. The water in your office is empty. Blame it on me."
Zhou Changchun's dark face warmed up a little. "Don't bother. I'll leave after I pack my things."
Dong Xuebing did not listen to Zhou Changchun and went out to get a bucket of water from an empty office. He placed the bucket of water into the water dispenser in Zhou Changchun's office and poured a glass of water for Zhou Changchun. He did not even rest and started to help Zhou Changchun tidy up his things. The cups, lunch boxes, tea set were all neatly arranged by Dong Xuebing.
The staff from the General Affairs Office were stunned. No one knew what was wrong with Dong Xuebing.
Guo Shunjie shook his head mockingly. What a fool! Why do you still want to curry favor with a retired deputy director?
Guo Panwei laughed at Dong Xuebing in his heart. This Xiao Dong was really stupid. If Zhou Changchun was really "retired" due to corruption or other issues, Dong Xuebing would be in trouble by sticking his nose into this matter.
Tan Limei kept signalling to Dong Xuebing with her eyes, but Dong Xuebing ignored her. Tan Limei was furious. She had taught him a lesson earlier. How can he be so close to Zhou Changchun now? There is no benefit for him! What an idiot!
Small office.
Zhou Changchun was touched to see Dong Xuebing sweating profusely. "Xiao Dong, sit down and rest for a while."
"It's fine. I am not tired." Dong Xuebing replied energetically. "What else do you want to do?"
"No. Sit down and let's have a chat." Zhou Changchun saw Dong Xuebing was still sitting down carefully. He sighed and patted Dong Xuebing's shoulders. "You can only see through a person at times like this. Xiao Dong, I did not misjudge you. I did not misjudge you."
Dong Xuebing replied respectfully: "What are you saying? This is what I should do."
Zhou Changchun sighed and squeezed Dong Xuebing's shoulders. "Sigh … … I finally see through you. I should have seen through you earlier. You are the only one in the General Affairs Office who is worth grooming. It's a pity that I had retired and cannot take care of you in the future. "
Dong Xuebing immediately replied: "Chief Zhou, you had taken good care of me while I was in the office. Thank you."
Zhou Changchun thought for a while and waved his hand as if he had made a decision. "I will not say anything else. Wait for a while. I need to make a call."
Dong Xuebing suppressed his excitement and pretended to be confused. "Then I will go out first?"
"No need. Just sit down." Zhou Changchun picked up the phone in front of Dong Xuebing and dialed a number. Zhou Changchun had wanted to promote Guo Panwei to the position of Deputy Chief before he retired. But Guo Panwei's attitude had disappointed him. Even now, Dong Xuebing was still so respectful to him. Zhou Changchun was very touched by Dong Xuebing.
The call got through. "Hello, Chief Yan. I am Zhou Changchun … … Yes. I have thought about the candidate you want me to recommend. Thank you for your trust. Hmmm … … I think the Deputy Chief of the General Affairs Office … …" Zhou Changchun paused for a while and looked at Dong Xuebing. "I think our Dong Xuebing is the most suitable … … You should know him … … Yes. He is the young man who rushed into the fire to save the documents … … Hmmm … … He is a new Civil Servant this year. He is very capable … … Yes … … Although he is not experienced enough, everything else is perfect. He is meticulous, brave and mature … … Yes … … I will recommend him … …"
Dong Xuebing clenched his fist. He was so nervous that his heart almost jumped out.
Chief Yan, who was on the other end of the phone, seemed to be in a difficult position. Dong Xuebing could hear Chief Yan mentioning the word "experienced." He was not as straightforward as when he agreed to Xiao Gao's nomination. Dong Xuebing had only been in State Security for a short period of time.
Just when Dong Xuebing was about to lose his confidence, Zhou Changchun suddenly said: "Eh? Director Li Qing went to your office? Yes. You can also ask Director Li about Xiao Dong … … "Zhou Changchun said and kept quiet. After about 3 to 4 minutes, Zhou Changchun smiled." Director Li is also nominating Dong Xuebing to be the Deputy Chief of the General Affairs Office? Ok … … Thank you, Chief Yan … … "After hanging up, Zhou Changchun turned to Dong Xuebing and smiled:" Xiao Dong, you are lucky. If I had nominated you for the shortlist with Director Li, the Bureau Chief would surely not approve it. But Director Li had only nominated you. This way, the whole General Affairs Office will have the same opinion, and Chief Yan will not be able to say anything. We will discuss this at the next Party Committee Meeting. "Dong Xuebing nodded.
Succeeded?
Really succeeded?!
Dong Xuebing replied gratefully: "Chief Zhou, you … … What do you want me to say? I am also not very capable … …"
Zhou Changchun interrupted Dong Xuebing: "Haha, a nomination is a nomination. I will be frank with you. No matter what, you will not get the position of Deputy Chief. Even if the General Affairs Office does not mention Guo Shunjie and Guo Panwei, the Political Section and other departments will get their names to appear along with you. Both of them have strong backing. You will never be able to compete with them." Since Zhou Changchun had left the government service, he did not need to hold back. "I want you to appear on the shortlist is to let your name appear in front of the bureau's leaders. This way, you will have a higher chance of getting promoted. Understand?" Zhou Changchun said. Zhou Changchun had already left the government service.
"Yes. Thank you, Chief Zhou. Thank you!"
As long as there was a nomination, there was a chance.
Dong Xuebing felt that he was very lucky. He had not made any wrong moves since he entered the General Affairs Office. He had helped Zhou Changchun to invest in stocks, and he had risked his life to help Li Qing snatch documents. Dong Xuebing's hard work had finally paid off. All his hard work these few days had not gone to waste.
Dong Xuebing must fight for the position of Deputy Chief!
