Ahem, I accidentally knocked it over. Tong Baiyan coughed lightly, looking a little embarrassed.
I thought Secretary Tong wanted to express his opinion. Chen Xing glanced at Tong Baiyan and said.
No, no. Tong Baiyan waved his hand and his expression returned to normal. Our Yuntian City Party Committee firmly supports and cooperates with your inspection team's actions.
Tong Baiyan's words were righteous and he did not even look at Ning Shuangqi.
Chen Xing looked at Tong Baiyan and did not say anything. His gaze swept across the face of the Municipal Party Committee's Deputy Secretary Liao Jingming. Chen Xing narrowed his eyes, as if trying to see through Liao Jingming.
Secretary Tong, we will officially report Ning Shuangqi's violations of the law to you later. Ji Qinghui spoke up at this moment and exchanged glances with Chen Xing. He nodded slightly and turned to leave the meeting room.
Tong Baiyan stared at Chen Xing and Ji Qinghui's backs as they left, as well as Ning Shuangqi, who stood there in a daze, her face drained of all color as she was taken away. Tong Baiyan's eyelids twitched uncontrollably. Normally, his relationship with Ning Shuangqi was only so-so, and at this moment, he did not feel any joy in her misfortune. On the contrary, his heart was filled with anxiety and unease.
When the figures of Chen Xing and the rest disappeared outside the door, Tong Baiyan heaved a long sigh of relief. He turned around and saw the dazed faces of the people in the meeting room. Tong Baiyan opened his mouth and wanted to scold them, but his throat was dry and he could not speak. At this moment, the faces of the city, district (county), and bureau officials were all filled with shock, unease, and hesitation. Tong Baiyan could almost see his own shadow. After going through so many hardships in the bureaucracy and reaching his current level, Tong Baiyan knew that most of the people in this huge vat of dye would not be able to pat their chest and say that they were clean and had not been tainted by even the slightest bit of color.
Secretary Tong, are we still holding the meeting? Liao Jingming suddenly asked.
If I'm not going to open it, what am I going to open it for … Tong Baiyan waved his hands in frustration, but before he could finish his sentence, Tong Baiyan hurriedly stopped himself. He cleared his throat and changed his tone, saying, "Open, continue opening it."
After Tong Baiyan finished speaking, he picked up his chair and sat down. When he heard that Chen Xing and the rest wanted to take Ning Shuangqi away, his hands trembled and he pushed the chair over when he stood up.
Returning to his seat, Tong Baiyan said. Regarding Li Bao Guan's matter, everyone still had to come to a consensus. Before an official conclusion was reached, no one was allowed to spread any news to the outside world. If the media requested an interview, it would be handled by the publicity department.
As Tong Baiyan spoke, he hesitated for a moment before adding, "Also, no one is allowed to speak of what happened just now. Before receiving the official notification from the higher-ups, everyone is to keep their mouths shut."
As Tong Baiyan continued with the meeting, Chen Xing and the rest had also left the Municipal Party Committee. Before they returned to the military base's hotel, Ji Qinghui's phone rang.
Chen Xing looked over, only to see Ji Qinghui picking up his phone and looking at it with a serious expression. He turned to look at Chen Xing and said, "It's Team Leader Zhang."
Ji Qinghui said as he picked up the phone.
Comrade Qinghui, have you guys started the operation? Zhang Mingchen's voice sounded from the other side of the phone.
Everything is going smoothly, and we're currently bringing Ning Shuangqi back to the military base's hotel. Ji Qinghui replied.
I don't think you guys need to delay any longer. Bring her to the provincial capital and take the afternoon flight back to the capital. Zhang Mingchen said.
Team leader, we're bringing her back to the capital? Ji Qinghui frowned, but he wasn't too surprised. This was actually a method of handling cases, to avoid some unnecessary risks, and at the same time, to minimize the resistance of the investigation.
Yes, bring her directly to the capital today. Zhang Mingchen nodded. He had given this order because he had some concerns. After all, Ning Shuangqi was the mayor of a city, and Yuntian City was an important economic city in Northern Qing, second only to the provincial capital, Quanning. In addition, Ning Shuangqi's official career had been within the boundaries of Northern Qing. She had been in politics for more than 20 years, from the local to the provincial, and then to the local. Zhang Mingchen didn't know how many connections Ning Shuangqi had in Northern Qing, but bringing her out of Northern Qing and conducting an investigation in a foreign place was the safest and most commonly used method.
Zhang Mingchen didn't explain too much to Ji Qinghui, and Ji Qinghui naturally didn't need him to be long-winded. After hearing Zhang Mingchen's instructions, Ji Qinghui roughly understood the other party's intentions and didn't ask any more questions. He nodded and said, "Okay, then we'll turn around and head to the provincial capital."
Good. Zhang Mingchen was very satisfied with Ji Qinghui. The next moment, Zhang Mingchen changed the topic and said, "Qinghui, bring a few investigators and bring Ning Shuangqi back. As for Chen Xing, let him stay in Yuntian. The rest of the people will continue to be stationed in Yuntian as well. We've received many reports and clues regarding Yuntian's corruption, so Chen Xing will continue to be in charge of this matter."
After Zhang Mingchen finished speaking, he hung up the phone without giving Ji Qinghui a chance to ask any questions. Hearing the beeping sound from the phone, Ji Qinghui confirmed that the other party had hung up. Ji Qinghui's expression was a little strange. Actually, even if Zhang Mingchen didn't hang up so quickly, he wouldn't have asked any questions. They were both from the disciplinary system, so Ji Qinghui knew Zhang Mingchen better than Chen Xing. He was also familiar with this person's temperament.
At this moment, Ji Qinghui's expression was strange. It wasn't because Zhang Mingchen hung up so quickly, but because Ji Qinghui could feel that Zhang Mingchen really had some opinions about Chen Xing, or maybe he had some bad opinions about him. Ji Qinghui didn't know the reason behind this. The two of them shouldn't have interacted before, so how did Zhang Mingchen get his opinions about Chen Xing?
While Ji Qinghui was deep in thought, Chen Xing asked, "Qinghui, what instructions does Team Leader Zhang have?
Team Leader Zhang wants me to bring Ning Shuangqi to the provincial capital immediately and take the afternoon flight back to Beijing.
Oh, so urgent? Chen Xing was stunned for a moment.
Team Leader Zhang's consideration was also out of caution. He wanted Ning Shuangqi's case to not be interfered with by the local authorities. Ji Qinghui smiled. He was just like this. He did things steadily, thought carefully, and acted quickly.
As Ji Qinghui said this, he looked at Chen Xing quietly. Chen Xing, Team Leader Zhang wants you to continue staying in Yun Tian.
He wants me to stay in Yun Tian? Chen Xing suddenly raised his head and stared at Ji Qinghui. He had already sensed something from this short sentence.
Yes, Team Leader Zhang said that someone needs to be in charge of Yun Tian. I will bring someone to bring Ning Shuangqi back. Ji Qinghui nodded lightly. He glanced at Chen Xing's expression and didn't know what to say.
