1 pm.
Party Secretary's office.
Dong Xuebing called Li Lu upstairs but did not let him in. He went to the office to settle some documents and left Li Lu outside.
If it were any other time, Li Lu would definitely be furious. She didn't put him in her eyes. But now, the lifeline of his restaurant was still in the hands of others, so Li Lu didn't have any temper at all. Since he had put down his pride, he would put it down to the end. So, he waited outside the office obediently. There were a few times when he wanted to light a cigarette, but after thinking about it, he didn't do so.
Ten minutes …
Half an hour …
One hour …
Li Lu's legs were sore, but there was no response from the office. He was worried and did not know what Dong Xuebing was going to do.
At this time, Party Committee Office Director Zhou Yanru came upstairs with a stack of documents.
Li Lu quickly called out to her. "Chief Zhou, Chief Zhou."
Zhou Yanru did not give Li Lu a good look. Yesterday, Li Lu had dumped her in front of her. "What are you calling me?"
"I'm sorry for what happened yesterday. I was blind. You're a great person, don't stoop to my level."
Zhou Yanru glanced at him and gave a faint "En". Big Sis Zhou was very talkative with people she was familiar with. The Party and Government Office had been listening to her nagging all day long. But when it came to people like Li Lu, Zhou Yanru would not say a word. She had always done things with propriety.
Li Lu saw Zhou Yanru's expression softening and immediately took out his car keys. "The documents for the Santana are in the car. This is the key. You must accept it."
"How can I accept it without Chief Zhou's permission?"
"Chief Zhou, Sister Zhou, Chief Dong … can you help me put in a good word for him?"
Zhou Yanru reprimanded him. "If you knew this would happen, what did you do yesterday?"
"I had eyes but failed to recognize you!" Li Lu used his hand to slap himself lightly. "Please don't take it to heart. It's all my fault!"
Zhou Yanru saw Li Lu was still sincere and nodded. "I will help you ask."
"Oh, thank you, Sister Zhou."
Actually, Zhou Yanru was thinking about the Santana. The Guangming Street Office had always been short of cars. The Party and Government Office had a headache about the car queuing every now and then. Even if Chief Dong gave up the Passat, it was still not enough. But with the Santana, it was different. The Guangming Street Office did not have their own taxes like the towns and villages. Most of the money was from the district. Hence, Zhou Yanru did not want to let go of such a good opportunity like getting a new car for free. It would be a waste if she did not take advantage of this.
Knock knock. She knocked on the door.
"Come in." Dong Xuebing said from inside.
Zhou Yanru entered the room. "Director, these are the materials you requested."
"Thank you. Leave it here." Dong Xuebing looks up. "Where is Mr. Li?"
"He's been standing outside for more than an hour." Zhou Yanru looked at him. "Do you think the Santana …"
Dong Xuebing looked at his watch and thought to himself. It's about time. "Alright. Let him in."
Zhou Yanru nodded and went out to inform Li Lu. After that, she returned to the Party and Government Office.
Li Lu, on the other hand, walked in carefully with apprehension and closed the door behind him.
Dong Xuebing looked at Li Lu and did not let him sit. "You should know the consequences of disturbing the residents with noise. The Ping An Street Office did not do anything, and that's their negligence. You should not do anything because no one is doing anything. Have you counted the number of residents in the vicinity? Who within a radius of a kilometer didn't hear you shouting into the microphone yesterday? You are going against the residents! You are going against the government! "
Li Lu replied with a bitter face. "Director, you don't need to say anything. I understand. Just watch me in the future. I promise I will not create trouble for you and the residents."
This attitude is more like it.
Dong Xuebing nodded. "I am not an unforgiving person. You had made a mistake, and it's fine as long as you can change. I can tell you are here with sincerity."
Li Lu nodded.
Dong Xuebing changed the topic. "But I think you should know what happened at the wedding yesterday afternoon. Shouldn't you tell me about that dish?"
"This …" Li Lu frowned.
Dong Xuebing coldly replied. "Who asked you to serve the dishes?!"
Li Lu does not know what to say and did not expect Dong Xuebing to ask him directly. Dong Xuebing is different from the leaders Li Lu had met in the past. He will say whatever is on his mind. For example, yesterday's blackout. If it were other leaders, they would not let others know about the blackout. They will cut off the electricity secretly and then let others know about it. But Dong Xuebing is different. He patted him on the shoulder and threw down some harsh words. Then, he cut off the electricity to let him know that he was the one who cut off the electricity and that there was no one hiding it. Li Lu was clear that a leader who could have this kind of "courage" was not someone to be trifled with.
Clenching his teeth, Li Lu was at his wit's end. Finally, he said in a low voice, "At that time, I also thought that the dish was inappropriate, so I specifically asked Director Chu Qinghua if he wanted to serve it. Although Director Chu didn't say it explicitly, he hinted at me. I had no choice but to let that dish go."
It's really this old man!
Dong Xuebing's guesses are confirmed now. He will remember this and settle the score with Chu Qinghua in a few days. "Alright. You can go back now."
"Ok." Li Lu touched his pocket. "Car keys …"
Dong Xuebing did not say anything.
Li Lu understood and left the car keys on the table. After leaving the office, he let out a long sigh of relief.
Downstairs.
Seeing that Li Lu didn't drive the Volkswagen Santana and walked out of the courtyard on foot, the staff members immediately understood that the matter had been resolved.
Everyone sighed with emotion. Their new director was really someone who would kill anyone he saw.
Although Dong Xuebing had only been in Nanshan District for a week, everyone knew his temper. He got the District Mayor's brother drunk and sent him to the hospital. He scolded the District Party Secretary's niece, caused the Organization Department to be in trouble. He even caused trouble for Nanqi Morning Post. He single-handedly challenged 26 civilians and even arrested the relative of the Organization Department's Head. Now, he cut off the electricity and water. He had defeated Li Lu!
After all, so many things had happened in just a few days.
On average, it was once a day!
The reason why a troublemaker is called a troublemaker is because he dares to do things no one else dares to do. This is the biggest difference between a troublemaker and others. Guangming Street Office's new Chief is worthy of this title. In the history of Nanshan District, Dong Xuebing had caused such a big commotion within a few days.
Nanshan District's biggest troublemaker!
Everyone started to call Dong Xuebing this in private!
