Afternoon.
Dong Xuebing's phone kept ringing.
"Old Leader, I'm Liu Dahai." Yan Tai County Hui Tian Village Station Chief Liu Dahai said. "I heard you are going to be promoted. Congratulations."
Dong Xuebing replied. "Who says I am going to be promoted? I am going to the Party School for advanced studies. "
"Then you will surely be promoted after you return. Also, it is the Central Party School."
"You got the news fast. I just found out about it."
"Are you going back to Yan Tai County before you leave? If not, we will go over. A few of my old colleagues want to treat you to dinner and asked me to call them. You must give them face. "
"Haha … alright. Tomorrow. I will treat all of you to dinner when I return."
"Don't. We will treat you all to dinner."
After hanging up, a few other colleagues and leaders called. All of them want to treat Dong Xuebing to dinner. Ever since Dong Xuebing offended Wang Anshi, he had not gone to the government officials for a long time. Now, all the officials are gathered at the same time, and Dong Xuebing is helpless. But Dong Xuebing had to give them face. He had rejected all the invitations he could and had to attend those he cannot reject.
For example, tonight, Dong Xuebing was dragged to a private room in a restaurant by seven or eight leaders from Guangming Street Office. They ordered many dishes and drinks.
Geng Xinke raised his glass. "Chief, congratulations."
"Chief, a toast to you too."
"Everyone, let's give a toast to Chief Dong."
"Congratulations on your promotion."
Everyone raised their glasses and toasted Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing can't reject them and drank with them. But he still remembered his words. "Why are all of you saying I am going to be promoted? Don't spread rumors. I am only going to the Party School for advanced studies. To be honest, I really don't want to leave at this time. I am not trying to be unreasonable. Fen Zhou City had just suffered a serious earthquake, and there are still many reconstruction projects waiting for us. I am also worried about going to the Party School now. " Dong Xuebing turned to Geng Xinke and laughed. "But with Secretary Geng in charge of the Street Office, I have nothing to worry about. Come, let me give a toast to all of you. Thank you for your support over the past few months."
"Chief, you are too polite."
"We should be the ones toasting you."
"Come, cheers."
After dinner, everyone walked back to the family quarters.
Dong Xuebing sighed as he looked at the place where he had been staying for a few days. He thought he will have to work in Guangming Street Office for at least a year and did not expect to be leaving so soon. Although he had been looking forward to being promoted to Deputy Director, he was still reluctant when he heard it was time for him to leave.
Dong Xuebing and Geng Xinke went upstairs together.
Suddenly, Yan Tai County Investment Promotion Agency's Lin Pingping called.
Dong Xuebing glanced at Geng Xinke and answered. "Hello, Xiao Lin."
"Chief Dong, I heard you are going to the Central Party School?"
"Hehe, I will report next week."
"Congratulations. When are you free? Our agency's staff had invited you to dinner."
"Alright, tomorrow. I'll go back tomorrow."
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing turned to Geng Xinke. "Oh, Xinke, I have nothing to hide from you. You should know I will be leaving soon, and we are no longer your superior and subordinate. But I still want to know … how is your relationship with Lin Pingping?"
Hearing this, Geng Xinke smiled bitterly. "That's it."
Dong Xuebing continued. "I had interacted with Xiao Lin for quite some time, and she is a good girl. I think both of you are a good match."
Geng Xinke sighed. "Back then, we broke up after we graduated from university. To be honest, I really regret it now. But it's useless to say anything now. I've called Ping Ping many times these days, but she hasn't picked up. I think she still hates me. I'm also …"
"Oh." Dong Xuebing suddenly remembered something. "Do you know Xiao Lin has a son?"
Geng Xinke looked at Dong Xuebing. "Son? Lin Pingping is still single. "
Dong Xuebing and Geng Xinke stopped in the corridor.
Dong Xuebing thought Geng Xinke knew about this. "You don't know? Although Xiao Lin's file says she is single, but … "
"She really has a child?" Geng Xinke is in disbelief.
"Yes. I had seen her once."
Suddenly, Geng Xinke's expression changed, and he asked. "Director, how old is Lin Pingping's child?!"
Dong Xuebing thought for a while. "How old? When I saw her last year, she seems to be four or five years old. Around this age. "
"Four or five years old? Are you sure? "
"I think so. What's wrong?"
Geng Xinke took a deep breath and got excited. "Four or five years old! Four or five years old! "
Dong Xuebing was shocked when he saw Dong Xuebing's reaction. "You are saying …"
Geng Xinke quickly replied. "Five years ago, when we graduated from University, Lin Pingping had not dated anyone other than me!"
Damn! Your son?!
Lin Pingping found out she is pregnant after you broke up?!
Dong Xuebing laughed. "This is a good thing. Xinke, if the child is really yours, you must hurry up. It's not easy for Xiao Lin to raise a child alone."
Geng Xinke did not know what to do. "I know … I know … I …"
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Hurry up and call her. Alright … I will go back now."
Geng Xinke was at a loss and quickly returned to his parents' place.
Dong Xuebing did not expect Geng Xinke and Lin Pingping to have a son. If that's the case, they will have a higher chance of getting back together. Dong Xuebing is also happy to be able to make this happy event happen before he leaves.
But Dong Xuebing does not want to get involved in their relationship. After he returned home, he packed his luggage and prepared to leave in a few days.
One day …
Two days …
Everyone knows Dong Xuebing will be promoted to Deputy Director. Although they are not sure about his position, it is set in stone. Dong Xuebing will be reporting to the Party School next week, and he will be transferred to his new post after a month. Time is tight, and everyone attended Dong Xuebing's promotion. Some District leaders, like Executive Deputy District Mayor Shen Fei and District Commission for Discipline Inspection Secretary Wu, even invited Dong Xuebing to their houses for dinner.
For the next two days, Dong Xuebing was busy entertaining people. He knows he does not have much time left and wants to settle his matters as soon as possible.
Nanshan District … Yan Tai County …
Dong Xuebing ran back and forth between the two places and visited all his old friends. He was so busy that he could close his working life here!
