At home.
It was past 10 pm.
Xie Huilan and the City's Ministry of Education's Chief Liao Yimin were chatting over tea. But as they had just met, they did not say anything important.
After a while, Liao Yimin stood up. "Mayor Xie, it's getting late. I will go back first."
"Why are you in such a hurry? Let's talk after lunch. " It's almost noon. "Xie Huilan looks at her watch.
"I will not disturb you and Chief Dong." Liao Yimin laughed. "Another day. I will visit you again."
Xie Huilan hesitated for a while and nodded. "Alright. We still have many opportunities to meet in the future. I will not keep you any longer."
Dong Xuebing walked over. "Let's go. I will send you off."
Liao Yimin quickly said. "Mayor Xie, you don't have to send me off."
Xie Huilan turned to Dong Xuebing and asked. "Oh, where are the tea leaves?"
"It's wrapped." Dong Xuebing passed the small box with 50 grams of Da Hong Pao Tea leaves to Liao Yimin. "There are not many left at home. Chief Liao, please don't mind." Even Xie Huilan doesn't have a lot of these tea leaves, and only 50 grams is enough for her.
Liao Yimin smiled. "These 50 grams of tea leaves are worth more than 1,000 RMB, and you can't even buy them with money."
Dong Xuebing pushed the box to Liao Yimin. "Chief Liao, you don't have to stand on ceremony with us."
"Then …" Liao Yimin accepted the box. "Thank you."
After sending Liao Yimin out, Dong Xuebing returned and closed the door.
Xie Huilan, who was sitting on the sofa, unbuttoned the top button of her shirt. Dong Xuebing blinked and sat down.
Dong Xuebing blinked and sat down. "Is this Liao Yimin trying to get close to you?"
Xie Huilan smiled. "Seems like it. But he might just be paying me a visit. Let's wait and see."
"I think it's very likely." Dong Xuebing said. "If not, he will not be so polite."
"Alright, let's not talk about work during break time." Xie Huilan smiled and touched Dong Xuebing's hand. She played with his fingers with her thumb. "My little hubby had performed well today. What you said and did was very appropriate. Hmmm … you are worthy of praise. I will reward you for taking a break in the afternoon, and you don't need to cook. It's been a while since I cooked, and I will show you my culinary skills."
Dong Xuebing wiped his sweat. "This is not a reward. Let me do it."
Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and asked. "Why? Do you think my cooking is not beautiful enough? "
You still know? Dong Xuebing smiled and did not tell the truth.
Suddenly, Dong Xuebing's phone rang. Ring … ring … ring … it's the City's Commission for Discipline Inspection.
Dong Xuebing immediately answered. "Hello, I'm Dong Xuebing."
"Chief Dong, my office is Gao Wenrong."
"Oh, Brother Gao, what's up?"
"There's a meeting at the Commission for Discipline Inspection. The leader asked me to inform you to come over."
"Now?"
"It's now. Looks like it's urgent."
"Ok. I will go over now."
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing looked at Xie Huilan and shrugged. "Fine … I can't even taste your cooking now. I have something to attend to at work. You can eat by yourself."
Xie Huilan smiled and nodded. "Ok."
Dong Xuebing sighed. "Sigh … It's the weekend, and you can't even let me rest."
Since you've taken up the responsibility of the Inspectorate One, don't complain. "
"You think I don't know this? I'm just saying. Let's go, let's go. "
"If you are not coming home for dinner, remember to give me a call."
"I know." Dong Xuebing was about to leave when he turned back. "Give me a kiss before I leave."
Xie Huilan smiled and brought Dong Xuebing's right hand to her lips. She kissed the back of his hand. "Are you satisfied now?"
Dong Xuebing replied angrily. "What's there to be satisfied about? I asked you to kiss me on the lips. Never mind. I am leaving now."
The moment Dong Xuebing closed the door, he could hear Xie Huilan's laughter coming from the room behind him. This Xie Huilan! Who asked you to tease me?! I will teach you a lesson when you are back!
After Dong Xuebing went downstairs, he remembered his Porsche was still at the City's Party Committee Compound. So, he left the compound and hailed a cab.
… …
City's Party Committee Compound.
Commission for Discipline Inspection Office Building.
When Dong Xuebing entered the building, it was quiet. No one was working today.
Dong Xuebing stood in front of the meeting room and knocked on the door. He heard someone say, "Come in." He pushed the door open and entered.
A few people were sitting in the room.
The City's Commission for Discipline Inspection Secretary He Suien, the Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, Wang Youfu, and the Director of the Letter and Visitors Office, Liang Xuan.
He Suien saw Dong Xuebing entering and waved his hand. "Chief Dong, you are here? Have a seat. "
Dong Xuebing knew everyone was still waiting for someone, and he sat in front of Liang Xuan. He is sitting in front of Liang Xuan because his rank is slightly higher than her, and these seats are arranged beforehand.
Dong Xuebing waited for about two to three minutes, and the Bureau Chief, Xiao Bin, arrived.
He Suien saw Dong Xuebing and said. "Everyone is here. Let's start the meeting."
Xiao Bin looked at He Suien. "Secretary He, what happened?"
He Suien thought for a while and passed a document to Xiao Bin. "Take a look first."
Xiao Bin looked at the document and passed it to Wang Youfu. Wang Youfu read it and passed it back to Dong Xuebing.
He Suien said. "This is the report we received this morning. Director Liang had passed it to me immediately, and all of you should have seen it. It is about Nanshan District Party Committee Secretary Geng Yuehua's corruption and bribery. The informant did not reveal his name, but he said he is a staff from China Construction Bank and had found Geng Yuehua's bankbook with 2 million RMB in it. I immediately asked my men to check, and the bankbook is in Geng Yuehua's name. Also, this bankbook is not included in Geng Yuehua's assets declaration. What do you all think?"
Yuehua?
Yuehua is corrupt?
Dong Xuebing's face changed. He does not believe it!
Secretary Wang Youfu asked. "Secretary He, have you verified the deposit?"
He Suien replied. "This is the Supervisory Office's job, and I did not get anyone to check. But it should not be wrong."
"You are asking us to investigate Geng Yuehua?" Xiao Bin looks at He Suien.
He Suien glanced at them. "I want to hear your opinions first."
Dong Xuebing asked. "A staff from China Construction Bank? How come he saw Geng Yuehua's bankbook so coincidentally? And he even reported it to the Commission for Discipline Inspection? I don't think this is credible. Someone might have a personal grudge against Secretary Geng, and that's why he is trying to frame our comrade. Even if Geng Yuehua is corrupt, why would he use his own bankbook? This doesn't make sense, and there are too many suspicious points. "
Liang Xuan looked at Dong Xuebing and said. "I also think so. In the past, the letters and visitors had received similar reports, and most of them are fabricated."
Xiao Bin replied. "This had already happened, and we must investigate this. Are we going to turn a blind eye to it?"
Dong Xuebing was about to say something, but he swallowed his words. He knows he must investigate this case, and the report might be sent to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. If the City Commission for Discipline Inspection does not investigate this case, the higher-ups might investigate this case, and the City Commission for Discipline Inspection will not be able to answer to them. This will be dereliction of duty.
Liang Xuan said slowly. "I remember Nanshan District's Secretary Geng Yuehua had performed well during the earthquake, and the media had …"
He Suien nodded. "This is a problem. The City had just commended and promoted Geng Yuehua, and if the Commission for Discipline Inspection is investigating …"
He didn't need to say anything for everyone to understand.
This is equivalent to slapping their own faces, or the Commission for Discipline Inspection is slapping the City's Party Committee. This is not an easy case, and it might cause the people's trust in the government. Of course, if this case can be settled easily, He Suien will not need to call everyone for a meeting on Sunday.
The meeting lasted for ten minutes, and everyone was discussing this case.
In the end, He Suien gathered everyone's opinions and made his decision. "Alright. I will speak to the City first, and Geng Yuehua's case must be investigated. But don't make a big fuss about it. Chief Dong, your Monitoring Office will keep an eye on this case. Are there any officials in Nanshan District who have violated the rules?"
Dong Xuebing hesitated. "There is a Deputy District Mayor."
That Deputy District Mayor's surname was Zhang. He was the one Deputy Chief Liu Hanqing had asked his men to go to the bank to audit his accounts when Dong Xuebing first arrived. Dong Xuebing did not remember this Deputy District Mayor when he was in Nanshan District. He should be one of the lowest ranked leaders.
He Suien replied with a straight face. "Alright. You will bring your men to Nanshan District. On the surface, you will investigate that Deputy District Mayor, and privately, you will investigate Geng Yuehua's case to see if it is true. Remember, don't make a big fuss about it, and don't go overboard." He Suien turned to the rest of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. "Everyone, don't let anyone know about this."
"Yes."
"Yes."
No one has any objections to letting Dong Xuebing handle this case, as the Monitoring Office is in charge of investigating District and County Divisional Leaders. But Dong Xuebing is frustrated. He did not expect his first important task to be investigating Geng Yuehua. When Dong Xuebing was the Street Office Director, his relationship with Mayor Geng Yuehua is not good. This is because Geng Yuehua treats everyone coldly. That's why no one in the meeting knows about his relationship with Geng Yuehua. Not even Geng Yuehua's brother knows about this.
Sigh … What is this?!
Dong Xuebing is having a headache. Are they really going to investigate her? But how are they going to investigate her? How are they going to explain that 2 million RMB passbook?
Corruption? Bullshit. If Geng Yuehua is also corrupted, then there will be no clean government officials!
