"Secretary, are … are you okay?" After waiting for a while, Lu Ming couldn't hear Chen Xing's voice, so he asked.
At this moment, Lu Ming couldn't tell what he was feeling. He felt uneasy. The people from the Commission for Discipline Inspection wouldn't investigate Huang Ming for no reason. Moreover, they were from the highest level. There was only one explanation. They were after Chen Xing. To be exact, they were investigating Chen Xing. Maybe they were investigating those who were close to Chen Xing.
Of course, there was another possibility, and that was that Huang Ming had bribed other officials. Now that the matter had been exposed, he was being investigated. However, the possibility of this was minuscule. As someone who had known Chen Xing since the early days of his career, Lu Ming was well aware of the close relationship between Huang Ming and Chen Xing. The reason why Huang Ming was able to expand his business to such a large scale was more or less related to Chen Xing's support. As for whether Huang Ming was involved with other officials, Lu Ming had never heard of it.
This was the source of Lu Ming's uneasiness. If those people were really investigating Chen Xing, what would happen to Chen Xing in the end? Although Chen Xing had the support of the Zhang family, and ordinary people didn't dare to hurt Chen Xing, the deterrence from the highest level was too great. Even though Lu Ming knew that the Zhang family was powerful, he didn't have much confidence in Chen Xing and the Zhang family. Once Chen Xing really fell, what would happen to an official like him, who had a close relationship with Chen Xing?
Lu Ming didn't dare to think further. Once Chen Xing really fell, his future would be bleak. He might even be in trouble.
Lu Ming had mixed feelings. At this time, Chen Xing was still silent.
So, Huang Ming was in the hands of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Chen Xing asked in a hoarse voice. He didn't hear what Lu Ming asked him just now. Even now, he couldn't calm down.
Yes, it should be. Now the Municipal Bureau has withdrawn the case. Lu Ming nodded.
Listening to Lu Ming's words, Chen Xing once again fell silent. In fact, as soon as the question left his mouth, he knew it was nonsense. Lu Ming had already informed the Nanzhou Municipal Bureau through official channels that the case had been withdrawn. Was there a need to ask any more questions? Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise to know the exact news of Huang Ming. Chen Xing thought to himself, trying to find joy in bitterness.
Lu Ming, have you informed Miss Lu about this? Chen Xing asked.
Not yet. I called you as soon as I got the news. I'll tell Miss Lu later. Lu Ming said.
You should give her a call first. Just now, she called me anxiously, wondering if something bad had happened to Huang Ming. Women are like this, they tend to let their imagination run wild when something happens. You should give her a call first to calm her down. At least she knows about Huang Ming's situation now. Chen Xing smiled. Even he himself didn't realize how bitter his smile was. He made others feel at ease, but he couldn't feel at ease himself.
Okay, I'll call her first. Lu Ming nodded. He was about to say that if he were to inform Lu Xiaojing, she would definitely ask when Huang Ming would return, and he wouldn't be able to answer that. However, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. He knew that if he were to ask such a question now, it would only make things worse for Chen Xing. In fact, there was no need for him to say anything more. Chen Xing would definitely find a way to figure out the situation and find a way to get Huang Ming out. After all, this matter was related to Chen Xing.
Well, you call her first. Remember to tell her that I'll find a way to get Huang Ming out as soon as possible. Chen Xing said.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Xing stood still for a long time. After a long time, Chen Xing took a deep breath and told himself to calm down. If he died, he would face the sky. If he didn't die, he would live forever. What was there to panic about?
Walking back to the chair and sitting down, Chen Xing frowned more and more. Thinking about Huang Ming, Huang Jianghua, and Li Yong, Chen Xing was keenly aware that there must be some connection between them. He felt that he was vaguely grasping something, but he couldn't figure it out. Huang Ming was investigated by the people of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. What about Huang Jianghua and Li Yong? What happened to them was basically similar to what happened to Chang Shengjun last time. It was the same manipulation method, so it could be judged that the person behind the scenes was most likely the same person. But if it was really Qian Xinlai behind the scenes, could Qian Xinlai have any connection with that department?
Chen Xing thought hard, but in the end, he couldn't figure it out. If Huang Ming's incident was because of him, it meant that the people from that department were targeting him. But why did they investigate him? Chen Xing believed that ever since he became a leading cadre, he had always been clean and honest. He had never asked for or accepted bribes from others, not even a single cent, nor did he have close relationships with any businessmen … If there was anyone who had, it would be Huang Ming. However, the two of them had been classmates since high school and had known each other for more than 20 years. As for the dividends he had received from Huang Ming, it was the dividends he received when he first became a shareholder. At that time, he was just an insignificant staff member sitting on a cold bench, so he did not abuse his power for personal gain. Moreover, he had used real money to invest in the company, which was his savings from working for several years. He did not use his shares for free. Therefore, Chen Xing could confidently say that he had a clear conscience regarding his work.
Looking at the phone in his hand, Chen Xing hesitated whether he should call his father-in-law. This matter was too strange and far beyond his control.
After pondering for a moment, Chen Xing didn't hesitate anymore. He knew that his father-in-law might still be busy with work, but he had to make this call and inform his father-in-law as soon as possible.
The call was quickly connected, and a young voice answered the phone. Chen Xing knew that it was his father-in-law's secretary, Ren Zhixing. Chen Xing had his number on the other party's phone. At this moment, Chen Xing didn't waste any time and said directly, "Secretary Ren, is it convenient for you to report to your leader? I have something to talk to him about.
Secretary Chen, my leader has been abroad for foreign affairs these days. You don't know, do you? It should be noon break time in China now, but it's 10 o 'clock in the morning here. My leader is now attending a meeting and can't leave. After the event, I will tell him immediately. " Ren Zhixing smiled. Knowing that Chen Xing was his leader's son-in-law, he didn't refuse.
Okay, thank you, Secretary Ren. Chen Xing thanked him.
Secretary Chen treated him as an outsider. He wasn't an outsider. Ren Zhixing smiled.
When Chen Xing heard Ren Zhixing's words, he wanted to exchange a few more words with Ren Zhixing. After all, it wouldn't be bad to get closer to his father-in-law's confidential secretary. Just as he was about to open his mouth, he saw Wei Sida standing at the door. Chen Xing didn't want Wei Sida to hear more, so he had to say a brief goodbye to Ren Zhixing.
Chief Wei, you didn't go back to rest? Chen Xing looked at the time. It was not even 1 o 'clock yet. He didn't know why Wei Sida was looking for him.
Just as he was about to take a nap in the office, I received a call from Lishan County. I heard about something. I wanted to quickly report to you, so I didn't rest. Wei Sida walked to Chen Xing's desk.
I heard that Comrade Guangzheng was taken away by the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. The officialdom of Lishan County was in an uproar. Wei Sida's expression was solemn. Although he said so, his seemingly upright eyes were looking around, observing Chen Xing's expression.
When did this happen? Why didn't I know? Chen Xing suddenly stood up. His expression was as ugly as it could be. Zhu Guangzheng's appointment as Lishan County's Party Secretary was proposed by him. At that time, whether it was Sun Ying, the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, or Zhang Lixing, the Executive Deputy Mayor, they all objected openly or covertly, setting up obstacles and obstructions. At that time, the discussion about this appointment was delayed for a period of time. In the end, he was the one who forced it. Now that Zhu Guangzheng was in trouble after only a few months in office, and the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection didn't notify him, the local Party Committee's top leader, when they came to investigate the case. It would be strange if Chen Xing was in a good mood.
At noon, I heard that Comrade Guangzheng happened to be in the office and didn't go back, so he was taken away. Someone saw the incident and found out that they were from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. That's how the matter got out so quickly. Wei Sida answered.
Why did the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection suddenly come to take him away? Is there something wrong with Zhu Guangzheng? Chen Xing's face was gloomy. The series of events today was unexpected.
I'm not sure about that, but the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection should have a basis for this case. Wei Sida laughed dryly. He didn't need to think to know that Chen Xing was in a bad mood. Naturally, he answered carefully. However, the gloating look in his eyes betrayed his true feelings.
Chen Xing didn't say anything. Of course, he knew that the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection would have a basis for this case. Otherwise, they wouldn't arrest people randomly. He just couldn't accept it at the moment. All along, Zhu Guangzheng had given him the impression that he was steady, capable, and upright. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone against the majority's opinion and promoted Zhu Guangzheng. Now, only a few months had passed, and Zhu Guangzheng was found to be problematic. Didn't that mean that he didn't know how to use the right people? Moreover, Sun Ying, Zhang Lixing, and the others were against the promotion of Zhu Guangzheng at the beginning, and he was the one who forcefully approved it. Even though Sun Ying, Zhang Lixing, and the others were deliberately opposing him and creating obstacles for him, but now that Zhu Guangzheng was in trouble, it would turn into him acting on his own, ignoring the opinions of the masses, ignoring the organization's personnel system, and even promoting a sick cadre.
Chen Xing was in a very bad mood at the moment. He was so angry and annoyed that he almost lost the ability to think normally. He paced back and forth. Chen Xing was both angry and helpless. The people from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection came to Mount Wang to take people away, but they didn't even inform him, the top leader of the Party Committee. To put it bluntly, they didn't take him seriously at all. Chen Xing was a little angry, but he also hated Zhu Guangzheng for not fighting for it. Chen Xing knew that if there was no conclusive evidence, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection would not take people away. After all, Zhu Guangzheng was the Secretary of the County Party Committee, not an ordinary cadre. If there was no evidence, no one could bear the consequences.
Walking back and forth with an ugly face, Chen Xing hadn't connected Zhu Guangzheng's matter with Huang Ming, Huang Jianghua, and Li Yong. At this time, his mind was almost occupied by anger.
