The next day.
The winter sun is dim.
Today is Dong Xuebing's first day in office.
Dong Xuebing woke up because of the cold. Maybe he had kicked his blanket off and sneezed when he woke up. He felt his body was shivering and quickly opened his eyes. He took out his phone from the bedside table and looked at his watch. It's already 10 minutes later, and he doesn't want to be late on his first day at the office. Dong Xuebing's eyes were cold, and he felt a chill down his spine. Dong Xuebing opened his eyes and took out his phone from the bedside table. Dong Xuebing immediately got out of bed and slapped his forehead. He washed up in his slippers and rushed out of the City's First Guest House. He did not even have breakfast and went downstairs to the hotel to hail a taxi.
First Guest House is located in the Bustling District.
Although it is not far from the City's Party Committee Compound, it is still a 5 minutes drive.
Dong Xuebing tried to hail a taxi, but the few cars that passed by were already occupied. The drivers did not stop, and it is the peak hour.
Dong Xuebing looks at his watch. There are only 7 minutes left.
After a while, Dong Xuebing had no other choice. He must not be late, or he will give the Commission for Discipline Inspection leaders the impression that he is not serious about his work. He quickly walked to the carpark behind the City's Party Committee First Building and took out his Porsche Panamera. He tightened his grip on the steering wheel and stepped on the accelerator towards his unit. It is rare to see this Porsche in Fen Zhou City, especially the car plate number 9999. Many passersby looked at him.
2 minutes to 9 pm.
City's Party Committee Compound.
Dong Xuebing drove into the compound and finally made it in time.
After familiarizing himself with the place yesterday, Dong Xuebing knew he cannot park his car casually. The City's Party Committee Compound has limited parking spaces. For example, there is a circle for the City's Party Committee Compound, and another circle is for the City Government. There are also temporary parking spots for vehicles from other places. The Commission for Discipline Inspection's parking lot is beside and diagonally behind the Commission for Discipline Inspection's office building. There are less than 10 parking spaces there.
Dong Xuebing immediately drives over, but the parking lot is full when he arrives.
There was a big car in the middle, and there were a few Audi A6L and Passat. It should be the government's buses, and beside it were some leaders' private cars. Dong Xuebing remembered the cars were lined up in the same order as the one he saw yesterday. That means the Commission for Discipline Inspection leaders had their own designated parking spaces, and the cars were lined up according to their rank.
Dong Xuebing looked around and saw only the rear end of the car was still there.
But Dong Xuebing could not park his car because a black Crown Jeep was not parked properly and was not within the parking lot. The tires on the right side of the parking lot were over the parking lot, and there was a bicycle shed on the other side. Dong Xuebing's car does not have enough space to park his car. If he parked in front of the car, his car would block the narrow road, and the cars from the Commission for Discipline Inspection would not be able to get out. That's why Dong Xuebing could not park his car. Dong Xuebing was frustrated when he saw an empty seat and could not park. He looked at his watch and realized he was going to be late!
Who parked the car?
Why is he so rude?
How can a Crown Jeep take up two parking spaces?
Dong Xuebing had just arrived and did not say anything. He turned around and drove back to the City's Party Committee building. It's almost working hours, and it's hard to find a parking spot. Dong Xuebing only found a parking spot two minutes later. He stopped his car and alighted before rushing to the Commission for Discipline Inspection building. Actually, he was late because of the time he parked his car.
Commission for Discipline Inspection.
Director's office of Monitoring Office 1.
Luckily, no one checked Dong Xuebing's position. As long as the higher-ups did not hold him accountable, Dong Xuebing could not be late.
When Dong Xuebing entered his office, he saw someone inside!
Luo Haiting smiled. "Director, good morning."
Dong Xuebing asked. "Sister Luo, why are you here? What's up? "
"No." Luo Haiting points to the clean desk. "I am here to help you clean up."
Dong Xuebing replied. "How can I let you do this? You are the Deputy Director now."
Luo Haiting laughed. "It's fine. I have nothing to do. Oh, I had switched on the water dispenser, and there is hot water. Do you want me to pour you a cup?"
"Thank you, Sister Luo."
"Don't mention it. This is what I should do."
It felt so comfortable to have a caring person working for him.
It's been a while since Dong Xuebing enjoyed this treatment. He sat behind his desk and took the cup of hot water from Luo Haiting. He took a few sips and looked at Luo Haiting. "Sister Luo, just let someone else do the cleaning in the future. You are a Section Chief now, and you are putting me in a difficult position. You had been like this in the past. I remember when I first came to Yan Tai County's Investment Promotion Agency, you were the one who swept the floor for me on my first day. Don't do this again. "
Luo Haiting adjusted her skirt. "Haha … I don't trust others to do this. It's fine."
Luo Haiting is wearing a knitted sweater and a light yellow skirt. She is not afraid of the cold today.
Dong Xuebing looked at Luo Haiting's face and outfit and felt relaxed. Sister Luo might not be young, but she is still very attractive.
Luo Haiting might have noticed Dong Xuebing looking at her, and she straightens her back and smiles. "Director, do you have any other instructions?"
Dong Xuebing quickly looks away. "Nothing. Oh, how do we arrange the parking lots at the Commission for Discipline Inspection?"
Luo Haiting paused for a second. "We did not purposely arrange the parking lots. But I heard the parking lots were arranged in the same way in the past, and after some time, there is an order. Most of the leaders' cars will park in the inner area, and the public buses will park in the inner area. But there is a shortage of parking lots, and most of the staff will park outside. There are only a few parking lots in the Commission for Discipline Inspection.
Dong Xuebing frowned. "Whose car is the outermost Crown?"
Luo Haiting replied without hesitation. "I don't know about the others. Our Commission for Discipline Inspection only has one Crown, and it belongs to our Deputy Director, Liu Hanqing."
Dong Xuebing remembered. "Oh, you told me about this yesterday."
Luo Haiting nodded. "Liu Hanqing is the wealthiest person in our City's Commission for Discipline Inspection. But of course, he is not as wealthy as you."
"Did he park his car like this in the past?"
"How does he park his car? Oh, the outermost area? "
"Yes. One car takes up two parking spaces. He is quite good." Dong Xuebing saw Luo Haiting looking at him suspiciously and pointed outside. "His car took up two parking spaces, and I was almost late today because of this. I still had to avoid his car and look for a parking space in the courtyard."
Luo Haiting immediately walks to the window and looked down. She frowned. "This is ridiculous!"
After knowing Liu Hanqing was the Deputy Director of his department, Dong Xuebing starts to suspect if Liu Hanqing had done this on purpose or accidentally. If not, Dong Xuebing will not ask him about such a small matter.
Luo Haiting could guess what Dong Xuebing was thinking. "If you didn't mention it, I wouldn't have noticed it. Anyway, not many leaders from the Commission for Discipline Inspection own cars in the past. If not, Liu Hanqing will not have the right to park his car downstairs even though he is the Deputy Director of his department. There are only about 20 leaders above the rank of Deputy Divisional Chief, and there is no space for him."
The Commission for Discipline Inspection's Party Secretary and the Bureau's Bureau Chief had parked their cars carefully.
Liu Hanqing is just a Deputy Director of a small department, and he is occupying two parking spaces?
Logically speaking, this does not make sense. Dong Xuebing is too daring.
If that was the case, could Liu Hanqing really have done it on purpose? He knows Dong Xuebing might have a car, and that's why he wants to show his power?
Dong Xuebing narrowed his eyes. "Tell me more about this Deputy Director Liu." Luo Haiting cleared her throat.
Luo Haiting cleared her throat and said. "Actually, what I know is only a rough idea. Liu Hanqing might look normal, but he always looks down on others. I heard his mother was the Executive Deputy Mayor of Fen Zhou City a few years ago. But a few years ago, she retired due to poor health. But she still has connections with many officials in the city. His father is the head of the City Bank's credit department. You should know about banks, especially the head of the bank. His salary and bonus are several times higher than us civil servants. Liu Hanqing's family also runs a business, and that's why his family is rich."
Dong Xuebing nodded slowly and listened.
"Also, before Liu Hanqing's mother retired from her position as the Executive Deputy Mayor, she is quite close with the leaders of the Commission for Discipline Inspection." Luo Haiting paused. "This time, the Chief of the Disciplinary Inspection Office had retired due to his injuries, and Liu Hanqing is the one with the highest hopes. But since you are here, he might be …"
Dong Xuebing understood!
So, it is because of this trivial matter again!
But Dong Xuebing also knew that Liu Hanqing might think this was a trivial matter. It was because Dong Xuebing had snatched the position of the Chief from him. Even Dong Xuebing doesn't believe that Liu Hanqing will not take it to heart. Of course, Dong Xuebing was also not sure if Liu Hanqing was trying to show off his power. Maybe Liu Hanqing had not parked his car properly today. Dong Xuebing decided to interact with him first.
"Let's go, Sister Luo." Dong Xuebing looked at his watch and stood up to call Luo Haiting. "Let's go to the Disciplinary Inspection Office."
Dong Xuebing's first priority is to get his department together. If everyone's focus is not on him, he will not be able to carry out his work today!
