"Secretary Chen, don't worry. If you don't protect them well, I'll cut my head off." Chang Shengjun withdrew his gaze and gave Chen Xing a military order.
Chen Xing nodded slightly and looked at the others. Yang Hongchao and the others avoided his gaze subconsciously. Under Chen Xing's calm face, the others felt more coldness. Although Chen Xing did not deliberately target anyone, they still felt a little guilty.
"Lao Lu, you know those hooligans just now, don't you?" Chen Xing turned to look at Lu Wei, and a smile appeared on his face.
"I … know them." Lu Wei stuttered as he looked at Chen Xing. His eyes were even rounder than before. "Is this young man really the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee?" Lu Wei's brain, which had always been insensitive, short-circuited at this moment.
"Okay, you go with the people from the Public Security Bureau later. If those people are still there, it's fine. If they are not there, you bring the people from the Public Security Bureau to arrest them." Chen Xing said to Lu Wei, then pointed at Chang Shengjun and said with a smile, "This is Chang Shengjun, the Secretary of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. If you have any problems in the future, you can look for him directly. Of course, he will also send people to protect your safety. How about it? You don't have to worry anymore, right?
"No, no, I don't have to worry anymore." Lu Wei glanced at Chang Shengjun. Although he could not figure out whether the Secretary of the Public Security Bureau had a higher rank than the Director or the Party Committee Secretary, he could tell from Chang Shengjun's posture that he was a high-ranking official in the Public Security Bureau. The police uniform gave him confidence for the first time. It should be known that when they, the relocated households, saw the people from the Public Security Bureau, they were more afraid.
After speaking to Lu Wei, Chen Xing looked back at Chang Shengjun and the others, and said to Chang Shengjun, "Sheng Jun, come with me."
They walked to the side, and Chen Xing said in a low voice, "Sheng Jun, you go with Lu Wei and be sure to arrest those hooligans. They may have something to do with the demolition of the old city reconstruction project. We may have a breakthrough from them. Also, you should know what to do after arresting them. I will mention two things. First, strictly prevent anyone from passing messages to them. Second, no one is allowed to greet them. You must pry their mouths open to see what they know."
Hearing Chen Xing's words, Chang Shengjun nodded his head lightly. He could hear the importance Chen Xing placed on this matter. Chang Shengjun didn't dare to slack off and nodded his head solemnly. Secretary Chen, don't worry. I'll get this done.
Well, I trust you. " Chen Xing said affirmatively, "You must protect Lu Wei well. I am afraid that someone will harm him."
"I will." Chang Shengjun glanced at Lu Wei, nodded, and then said with a smile, "Secretary Chen, since you said that just now, I think with the help of some disloyal people, no one will dare to harm Lu Wei."
"I hope so. Some things often happen when we think it is impossible. So it is always good to be careful." Chen Xing said to Chang Shengjun.
"Secretary Chen, you are right. It is necessary to be more vigilant." Chang Shengjun nodded.
When the two of them were talking, Yang Hongchao looked in their direction from time to time. He did not dare to come closer, but he was curious about what Chen Xing said to Chang Shengjun in private. He could not hear what they were talking about, so he could only stand there anxiously.
After telling Chang Shengjun what to do, Chen Xing asked Chang Shengjun to go with Lu Wei to arrest Lu Wei. After Chang Shengjun and his men left, Chen Xing got in the car. Gu Panman had been sitting in the car. No one knew her existence. Chen Xing turned to look at her. "Xiao Gu, do you want me to take you to the hospital?"
"Secretary Chen, there is no need. It is just a superficial wound. It is not a big deal." Gu Panman smiled and shook her head.
"Is it really not a big deal?" Chen Xing asked again. After all, it was an iron rod. Even if the arm was not a vital part, it did not mean that it would not hurt.
"It is okay. Look, my arm can still move. It will not be broken." Gu Panman smiled and gently raised the arm that was hit.
Hearing this, Chen Xing nodded. "Well, I will take you home first. Where do you live?"
"Secretary Chen, how about I take a taxi home after we return to the city center? Then you don't have to take me home." Gu Panman said softly. She did not dare to bother Chen Xing to take her home.
"It has been hard on you these few times. You are injured at night. If I don't take you home, I will feel bad, right?" Chen Xing smiled. "Well, there is no need to be so polite. Where do you live? Show me the way."
Hearing this, Gu Panman did not say anything. At this time, it was Li Yong who drove. Gu Panman lived in the Xincheng District in the city center. She had a single apartment here. Sometimes she lived here, and sometimes she lived with her parents. But most of the time, she lived in the Xincheng District. Because at home, her parents often talked about her marriage. In order to have a quiet ear, Gu Panman could only live outside.
The road in the city was wide and almost unimpeded. In about ten minutes, they arrived at the Xincheng District that Gu Panman mentioned. Chen Xing looked out of the window and smiled. "You live here?"
"Yes." Gu Panman nodded. "I am really sorry to trouble Secretary Chen to take me home."
"Xiao Gu, look, you are still so polite to me." Chen Xing smiled. "I should be the one thanking you."
Gu Panman pursed her lips and smiled. The dimple on one side of her face was particularly charming. Pushing the door open, Gu Panman already had one foot outside. "Secretary Chen, do you want to go up and have a seat?" Gu Panman said and looked at Chen Xing, Huang Jianghua, and Li Yong. Her eyes finally fixed on Chen Xing's face. There was an indescribable expectation in her heart.
"No, I will go up and have a seat another day. You have worked hard today. Go back and rest early tonight." Chen Xing said with a smile.
A trace of disappointment flashed in Gu Panman's eyes. She smiled and nodded. She was about to step out of the car. As soon as her other foot touched the ground, she almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, she held the door in time.
Chen Xing was stunned and asked with concern, "Xiao Gu, what's wrong?
No, nothing. Those people were chasing us just now. I may have sprained my ankle when I ran. " Gu Panman frowned slightly. Her delicate eyebrows were knitted together, which made people feel sorry for her.
Chen Xing got out of the car and walked around. He looked at Gu Panman, who was standing on her left leg and standing on tiptoe with her right leg. Without thinking, he knew that she had sprained her right ankle. The high-heeled shoes on Gu Panman's feet were not very high. At a glance, it was about five or six centimeters high. However, it was not surprising that she had sprained her ankle in such a situation. As a man, he was panting after running, not to mention Gu Panman, who was a woman. It must have been hard for her.
"Secretary Chen, it's okay. There is an elevator inside. It will only take me a few steps." Gu Panman said.
"Let me help you up." Chen Xing shook his head. It was already the third night that he had visited those families who had been relocated. It was also the first time that he had gained something. This was all thanks to Gu Panman. Now that she was injured and sprained her ankle, it was all for tonight's matter. Chen Xing was too embarrassed to let her go up by herself.
"Secretary Chen, there is really no need. I am fine." Gu Panman shook her head repeatedly. There was a hint of joy between her eyebrows that she did not even notice herself.
"Oh, Xiao Gu, I forgot that you have a husband. This kind of thing should be done by your husband." Chen Xing patted his forehead and smiled. "You should call your husband to come down and pick you up. We will leave after your husband comes down."
"Secretary Chen, I … I don't have a husband." Gu Panman glanced at Chen Xing. Her face was as red as an apple, but it was not obvious in the night.
Chen Xing was slightly stunned. He stared at Gu Panman and did not come to his senses for a long time. Gu Panman was already in her thirties. She still didn't have a husband?
Seeing that Chen Xing was staring at her, Gu Panman became more and more embarrassed. She lowered her head. At her age, she still didn't have a husband. It was hard to prevent people's imagination from running wild.
"Then I should help you up. You are a woman. It's fine if I don't know about it. But if I know, I won't let you go up by yourself." Chen Xing realized his rudeness. He quickly retracted his gaze and smiled.
"Secretary Chen, I am afraid of troubling you." Gu Panman glanced at Chen Xing and quickly lowered her head.
"Xiao Gu, if you continue to say this, you are really treating me as an outsider. You have led the way for us to visit the relocated families at night. I should be the one troubling you. You even got injured because of this. How can it be troublesome for me to help you up?" Chen Xing smiled and shook his head. "Why? Are you afraid that it will be inconvenient for a man like me to enter your room?"
"No, no, Secretary Chen, I don't mean that." Gu Panman quickly shook her head.
"All right, let's not waste any more time. I will help you up." Chen Xing smiled.
Holding Gu Panman's arm, Chen Xing could feel her soft body tremble slightly. After asking Huang Jianghua and Li Yong to wait downstairs for a while, Chen Xing helped Gu Panman into the building. Gu Panman lived on the tenth floor. When they walked to the door of the elevator, Gu Panman looked at Chen Xing with a slightly red face. "Secretary Chen, we have arrived at the elevator. I can go up by myself."
"Xiao Gu, are you being polite to me or are you afraid that I will enter your room? If it is the latter, I really dare not help you up. But if it is the former, I will not be happy if you continue to treat me like an outsider." Chen Xing shook his head.
"No, Secretary Chen, don't get me wrong. It is my honor if you can come to my room. How can I be afraid of you going in? I am afraid that I will really trouble you." Gu Panman explained anxiously.
"Xiao Gu, I have to criticize you. You are treating me like an outsider. If I need you to do anything in the future, I will not dare to call you." Chen Xing shook his head with a smile.
"Secretary Chen, don't. I am very happy to do something for you. If there is anything you need me to do in the future, just tell me." Gu Panman said seriously.
"That's it. If I need you to do something, I will call you. You don't need to treat me like an outsider. Besides, I am a leader at work, but not in private. You don't need to be so formal." Chen Xing smiled.
As they were talking, the elevator also came down. Chen Xing helped Gu Panman into the elevator. Before the elevator door closed, they heard the squeaking of footsteps outside. It was the sound of high heels. A woman rushed in before the elevator door closed.
