Wait, Dejun, personally go down and bring Chen Deshi to my office. Zhang Xinjun changed his mind at the last minute and stared in the direction of the guardhouse.
Li Dejun, who had already called the guardhouse, heard the leader's instructions. He immediately put down the phone and quickly went downstairs. For a secretary like him, the leader's instructions were to be executed unconditionally. There was no need to question it at all. This was Li Dejun's code of conduct and the real reason why he was able to gain Zhang Xinjun's favor and trust. Since Zhang Xinjun became the deputy mayor, he had changed four secretaries. He was the fifth. The previous secretaries were all fired after a few months, and the longest didn't last more than a year. Only he, who had been working for four years, was still by Zhang Xinjun's side. Zhang Xinjun's trust in him was obvious.
He trotted to the guardhouse. When Li Dejun appeared and personally invited Chen Deshi up, the security guard who stopped Chen Deshi almost dropped his eyes to the ground. Watching the two leave, the security guard was still puzzled. He thought to himself, What's going on? Wasn't that person looking for the new Mayor Chen? Why is it Deputy Mayor Zhang's secretary who came out to welcome him?
Zhang Xinjun watched from upstairs as the secretary led Chen Deshi in. He turned around and entered his office. Not long after, Li Dejun brought Chen Deshi in. When Chen Deshi saw Zhang Xinjun sitting in the office, he was a little confused. Seeing that Li Dejun was about to leave, Chen Deshi didn't know what taboo was, so he hurriedly said, "Wrong, wrong.
Young man, I'm looking for Mayor Chen.
Li Dejun didn't pay attention to Chen Deshi at all. He lowered his head and quickly went out. He even closed the office door from the outside. At this time, Zhang Xinjun also stood up from his chair and looked at Chen Deshi with a smile. Lao Chen, why are you looking for Mayor Chen? Mayor Chen just took office today and has a lot of things to do. If you have any problems, you can tell me. I can also help you solve them.
As Zhang Xinjun spoke, he enthusiastically pulled Chen Deshi to the sofa and pressed him to sit down. Lao Chen, do you want to drink hot water or tea? I have some good Longjing here. Do you want to give it a try?
No need, no need, Mayor Zhang, you are busy, you don't need to call me. Chen Deshi was stunned by Zhang Xinjun's overly enthusiastic attitude. He couldn't wrap his head around it. He sat at a loss and didn't know where to put his hands. Especially when Zhang Xinjun kept calling him Lao Chen, he felt uncomfortable all over.
It's not a big deal. Taking care of you is also part of my job. Old Chen, you are an outstanding worker in our city and had won the National May Day Worker Medal. As a leader, I am also proud of you. Zhang Xinjun smiled as he looked at Chen Deshi. He then took out a box of delicately packaged Longjing tea from his desk drawer. It was obvious that it was very expensive. Then, he personally poured hot water and brewed the tea for Chen Deshi.
Aiya, Lao Chen, you haven't sat in my office before, right? Zhang Xinjun's face was full of smiles. As he brewed the tea, he secretly observed Chen Deshi. His attitude undoubtedly made Chen Deshi even more at a loss. This was also what Zhang Xinjun wanted to achieve. He heard Zhang Xinjun say again, Lao Chen, why are you looking for Mayor Chen? Mayor Chen is very busy now. He is a new official and has a lot of work to do. If you have any problems, you can tell me directly. I will help you solve them, so that you don't have to trouble Mayor Chen. Isn't that right, Lao Chen?
Yes, yes, Mayor Zhang, you are right. Chen Deshi was confused by Zhang Xinjun's actions and could only nod. He had never met Zhang Xinjun before, except for a few months ago when Chen Xing invited him to dinner. Of course, Chen Deshi didn't know that it was the banquet for Chen Xing that night, and Chen Xing also invited him. Chen Deshi thought that Chen Xing invited him to dinner. But now, Zhang Xinjun's enthusiastic attitude made Chen Deshi a little confused. Nowadays, the higher the official, the more they serve the people?
Lao Chen, why are you looking for Mayor Chen today? Tell me, I can also help you solve it. Zhang Xinjun smiled.
As Zhang Xinjun spoke, he stared at Chen Deshi closely. He didn't know whether Chen Deshi's visit had anything to do with Zhou Yan's matter. Anyway, he just wanted to sound him out. If there was nothing, he could send Chen Deshi away after drinking some tea.
Zhang Xinjun had his own plan in mind. He also thought that Chen Deshi couldn't resist his enthusiasm and would spill the beans. But he didn't know that Chen Deshi still knew what to say and what not to say at this moment. Hearing Zhang Xinjun's question, Chen Deshi answered honestly, "Mayor Zhang, in fact, I am looking for Mayor Chen for nothing. I just heard that Mayor Chen was transferred to work in our city, so I wanted to see him."
"Huh?" Zhang Xinjun was slightly stunned and then looked at Chen Deshi with some disbelief. "Lao Chen, are you telling the truth?
Of course, I am telling the truth. Why would I hide anything from you, Mayor Zhang? " Chen Deshi smiled honestly, but his palms were sweating. It was also a great challenge for him to lie. If Chen Deshi hadn't heard some rumors that Zhou Chaifeng's daughter, Zhou Yan, was Zhang Xinjun's mistress, and that Zhou Chaifeng and his wife had come to look for him and said that Zhang Xinjun wanted to mess with their daughter, Chen Deshi might really have told him the purpose of his visit. Fortunately, although he was honest, he wasn't a simple-minded person. He wasn't a simple-minded person.
"Well, it's understandable that you came to see Mayor Chen. Mayor Chen visited your house before, so it's natural for you to come." Zhang Xinjun stared at Chen Deshi for a while, then smiled and nodded. "But you came at a bad time. Mayor Chen just came today, so he doesn't have much time."
"I was thinking too simply. Mayor Chen is a big leader and has a lot of work to do. He's not as free as a small worker like me." Chen Deshi echoed Zhang Xinjun's words. On one hand, he didn't dare to tell Zhang Xinjun the truth. On the other hand, he felt that Zhang Xinjun's words made sense. He thought to himself that it was indeed too abrupt for him to come to the Municipal Government to look for Chen Xing.
Chen Deshi stayed in Zhang Xinjun's office for about 20 minutes. Zhang Xinjun asked him some questions and confirmed that Chen Deshi was just here to see Chen Xing. Zhang Xinjun was relieved, but he couldn't help but laugh at himself. He was too paranoid. Chen Deshi and Zhou Yan worked in the same factory, but it didn't mean that they had anything to do with each other. How could he associate it with Zhou Yan? He was too paranoid.
After confirming that Chen Deshi didn't have any ulterior motives, Zhang Xinjun lost the mood to deal with him. He responded to Chen Deshi casually. In the end, Chen Deshi tactfully said that he was leaving, afraid that he would delay Zhang Xinjun's work. Zhang Xinjun sent Chen Deshi to the door. He was less enthusiastic than at the beginning, but he still had a smile on his face.
Li Dejun, who had been waiting outside the door, entered Zhang Xinjun's office and closed the door. He asked Zhang Xinjun, "Mayor, Chen Deshi shouldn't be related to that matter, right?"
"It shouldn't be possible. We're overthinking." Zhang Xinjun smiled and waved his hand. "By the way, how is Zhou Yan's matter?
It has already entered the judicial process, and the court has already spoken to her. She will be sentenced to at least three to four years in prison. Let's see if she still behaves. " Li Dejun's eyes were smiling. Together with the ruthlessness on his face, there was a different kind of ferociousness.
"It's good that it's done. You keep an eye on this matter. Don't make any mistakes. A rat's poop can spoil a whole pot of porridge. I don't want to fail because of a small matter." Zhang Xinjun looked a little annoyed. Zhou Yan's matter wasn't a big problem for him, but it gave him a headache. No matter how big or small the trouble was, as long as you're a person, you don't like trouble. Zhang Xinjun and Zhou Yan were originally close, but the two of them had a falling out because of money. Zhou Yan shouted that she wanted him to lose his reputation. She really went to the Public Security Bureau and reported it to the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Zhang Xinjun was so annoyed that he decided to go all the way and send Zhou Yan to prison.
"Mayor, don't worry. I'll keep an eye on it. There won't be any accidents." Li Dejun looked at Zhang Xinjun's face and hurriedly replied.
After Chen Deshi left Zhang Xinjun's office, he did not immediately return. Instead, he wandered around the Municipal Government building. Zhang Xinjun thought that Chen Deshi had nothing to do with Zhou Yan's matter, so he was too lazy to bother with him. He sent Chen Deshi out of the office and let Chen Deshi wander around the Municipal Government building.
At this time, Chen Xing was in his office talking to his former boss, Wang Rongyan, on the phone. When Wang Rongyan, who had been transferred to the University of Nanzhou's Party Committee Secretary, spoke to Chen Xing on the phone, he could not suppress the bitterness in his heart. He had been transferred from the Department of Higher Education to the University of Nanzhou, a key university under the Ministry of Education. His rank was clearly at the vice-ministerial level, but compared to Chen Xing, he really did not feel the slightest sense of superiority. There was only a deep sense of loss. He was being demoted, but Chen Xing was actually going to be promoted. Wang Rongyan felt a sense of helplessness.
