The two of them walked to the ward. Liu Xiaowen's husband, Wan Zhengliang, was a typical intellectual. At first glance, his eyes were covered by a pair of glasses, which were obviously very high in myopia. His eyes were a little dull, and he was lying on the bed in a slightly decadent manner. Wan Zhengliang was regretting his impulsiveness. It didn't matter if he had a fracture. He just needed to rest. However, when they fought, he had already been knocked to the ground. When those bastards kicked him, he didn't know who kicked his crotch. At that time, he didn't feel it. After the operation in the orthopedics department of the hospital, he felt pain in his crotch. When the andrologist came to check and said that it might affect the male function in the future, Wan Zhengliang really regretted his impulsiveness. For the first time, he regretted his impulsive character.
Zhengliang, this is …
I'm Xiaowen's schoolmate. We met in the hospital last time. I heard that you were in the hospital, so I came to see you this time. Chen Xing interrupted Liu Xiaowen with a smile. In private, Chen Xing was more willing to treat himself as an ordinary person, and he didn't want the difference in identity to become an obstacle to the communication between friends.
Oh, thank you. Wan Zhengliang looked up at Chen Xing and nodded politely. He, who was not in good spirits, drooped his head again.
Liu Xiaowen brought a chair for Chen Xing and invited Chen Xing to sit down. Chen Xing smiled and waved his hand, saying that there was no need. He was going to leave later. He just came over to take a look. After all, he and Liu Xiaowen were schoolmates.
How long will it take for him to be discharged from the hospital? Chen Xing asked Liu Xiaowen casually.
It was not clear yet. Let's see what the doctor said. Liu Xiaowen glanced at her husband and subconsciously glanced at his crotch. Her eyelids moved, and there was a little more shame and annoyance in her eyes. She blamed her husband for his impulsiveness.
Chen Xing didn't say anything after hearing that. After saying a few words of concern, he left the ward. Huang Jianghua, who was beside him, put down the fruit basket that he had prepared in advance and followed him out. Chen Xing smiled and said to Liu Xiaowen, who sent him out, "You don't need to send me out. I have to go upstairs to visit others."
Oh. Hearing Chen Xing's words, Liu Xiaowen nodded and felt a little disappointed for no reason. She thought that Chen Xing came to visit her husband specially for her. It seemed that she thought too much. Thinking about it, she was not a person who had a deep friendship with Chen Xing in college. Chen Xing was now the dignified Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Would it be necessary for him to give her face?
With her mind in a mess, Liu Xiaowen didn't even notice Chen Xing entering the elevator.
Liu Xiaowen stood on the spot for a while. Before she could regain her senses, the other elevator stopped. The elevator door opened and the person who came out saw Liu Xiaowen and immediately laughed. Yo, did Teacher Liu know that we were coming? He was waiting here in advance.
When Liu Xiaowen heard the voice, she looked up and saw the Director of the County Education Bureau, Zhang Kun, and the Principal of No.1 Middle School, Xu Zhizhong. She was slightly stunned. When she felt Zhang Kun's wanton gaze on her, a trace of disgust flashed in Liu Xiaowen's eyes.
Xiao Liu, Bureau Chief Zhang heard that your husband is in the hospital, so he came to the city for business today. He had just finished his business, so he specially came to visit you.
Xu Zhizhong said to Liu Xiaowen.
Thank you, Bureau Chief Zhang and Principal Xu. Liu Xiaowen nodded her head and thanked them. When she saw Zhang Kun, she felt disgusted. This disgusting Bureau Chief gave her goosebumps.
Aiya, did Teacher Liu know that we were coming? Otherwise, why would he wait here?
Zhang Kun said again. His eyes kept wandering around Liu Xiaowen's face and chest.
Principal Xu didn't say that you were coming. How would I know? Liu Xiaowen replied indifferently. She thought that if she told this old bastard who she was sending off just now, would he still dare to look around with his wretched eyes? Thinking was just thinking. Liu Xiaowen didn't really say anything. After she finished speaking, she turned her body sideways. It seemed that she was inviting Zhang Kun, Xu Zhizhong, and the others to the ward. She was really disgusted by Xu Zhizhong's constant staring at her.
Chen Xing took the elevator to the VIP ward located on the top floor of the Inpatient Department. In the ward, Li Ying wasn't there. Li Yanpei's wife, Cai Yalan, and secretary Jiang Dongming were there. Chen Xing called Chen Xing before he came. When Cai Yalan saw that Chen Xing came, she was obviously a little surprised. It had been less than a month since Chen Xing took office, but he had come to the hospital to visit her husband many times. It should be known that other city leaders came to the hospital at the beginning of the rescue.
Secretary Chen, you are so busy with work, but you still go to the hospital so often. In the future, if Yan Pei really can wake up, the person he should thank the most must be Secretary Chen. Cai Yalan said emotionally.
Sister Cai, you can't say that. Comrade Yan Pei had an accident in the office. As a leader, I should come to see him. Chen Xing smiled and waved his hand. If he can wake up, it will be the credit of your family. It has nothing to do with me.
Jiang Dongming took a chair for Chen Xing. Chen Xing smiled and nodded. After sitting down, he was about to mention Li Yanpei. At this time, there was a voice outside the ward. Chen Xing recognized that one of them was Li Ying's voice. The other was a male voice, which was vaguely familiar.
Turning his head to look outside, Chen Xing saw Li Ying and a middle-aged man walking in. Chen Xing's eyes narrowed. At a glance, he recognized that it was the United Front Minister, Xu Yuanfei.
Secretary Chen, you're here? Li Ying was holding a thermos bottle in her hand. When she saw Chen Xing, she looked a little surprised. After work, she went home to make soup. After coming to the hospital, she met Xu Yuanfei downstairs. They chatted and laughed.
Chen Xing smiled and nodded. His eyes fell on Xu Yuanfei. This United Front Minister stayed in his hometown in Northern Yuan for a long time with the excuse of illness. In fact, Chen Xing didn't have a good impression of him. No matter what the reason was, as a leader, Xu Yuanfei first lacked responsibility when he was absent from work for a long time.
Secretary Chen was also here. When Xu Yuanfei saw Chen Xing, he was also stunned for a moment. Soon, he greeted Chen Xing.
It was rare to see Comrade Yuanfei again. Chen Xing said with a smile.
Xu Yuanfei nodded indifferently. He didn't know whether Chen Xing meant to mock him for being absent from work for a long time. He just pretended that he didn't hear it. He walked to the bedside and took a look at Li Yanpei, who was lying on the bed. Xu Yuanfei's expression changed.
Secretary Chen, why are you here again today? Li Ying put down the thermos flask and turned to Chen Xing with a smile.
"What are you talking about? Can't I come here?" Chen Xing said with a smile.
"No, we are very happy that you can come here. It's just that you are a busy man, Secretary Chen. Of course, it's a surprise to see you here." Li Ying smiled. She had dealt with Chen Xing several times. Now in front of Chen Xing, she was not reserved.
"The appointment of the new Secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection has come out. I happen to be free tonight, so I come to tell you." Chen Xing said.
"Oh, has the province appointed a new Secretary?" Li Ying heard that. Although she knew it would happen sooner or later, she still couldn't help feeling a little disappointed after it was confirmed. If it hadn't happened, her father wouldn't be lying on the bed now, and he would still be the Secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection.
"Well, the candidate has been confirmed. He is transferred from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection." Chen Xing nodded and said. "But Secretary Jianming also fought for Comrade Yan Pei's treatment in the main hall. You don't have to worry about Comrade Yan Pei's medical and nursing expenses in the future."
"We are not very worried about this. Our biggest wish is that my father can wake up." Li Ying whispered.
"Not only you, but we also hope that Secretary Yan Pei can wake up." Chen Xing said with a smile.
While Chen Xing was talking to Li Ying, Xu Yuanfei stood quietly aside. Jiang Donghua also moved a chair for him, but he didn't sit down. Hearing Chen Xing say that the province had appointed a new Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, Xu Yuanfei's expression changed a little. He felt sorry for Li Yanpei and worried about the future. Li Yanpei was an upright and outspoken person. What kind of person would the new Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection be?
"Comrade Yuanfei isn't in Northern Yuan. Why did he come back today?" Chen Xing's eyes fell on Xu Yuanfei and suddenly said.
"Didn't Secretary Chen say that he would contact the overseas Chinese whose ancestral home is Mount Wang and organize an overseas Chinese conference? This is the work of our United Front Work Department, so we should attach importance to it." Xu Yuanfei said calmly.
"Secretary Chen, in fact, Uncle Xu has been staying in Mount Wang these days." Li Ying couldn't help interrupting.
Hearing this, Chen Xing glanced at Xu Yuanfei thoughtfully. It seemed that Xu Yuanfei was not exactly what he thought.
Chen Xing calmly withdrew his gaze. After thinking for a while, he didn't think about it anymore. Now in Mount Wang, Chen Xing didn't know who he could trust and who he couldn't. Last night, the mysterious letter reminding him to be careful of Wei Sida. If it was really written by Wu Ning, in Chen Xing's eyes, the people and things in Mount Wang were far more complicated than he had imagined.
"Has Comrade Yan Pei moved again today?" Chen Xing looked at Li Yanpei on the sickbed and asked.
"No, the doctor's routine examination is still the same as before." Cai Yalan smiled helplessly.
"If Comrade Yan Pei can wake up, it will be a medical miracle. Since it is a miracle, it means that the doctor may not be able to see anything in advance. So at this time, we'd better not blindly believe in the doctor." Chen Xing smiled. "I believe that Comrade Yan Pei can wake up. We should maintain this kind of optimistic attitude.
I hope that we can receive your blessing, Chen Xing. " Li Ying also smiled.
Xu Yuanfei didn't say anything. He felt that it was better to say that it was a kind of self-comfort than to maintain an optimistic attitude. Could a vegetative person wake up? Xu Yuanfei didn't have any hope. He hoped that his old friend could wake up more than anyone else, but this kind of miracle was almost impossible. Xu Yuanfei didn't even think about it. Now the only comfort was to know that such a person was still alive in the world.
Xu Yuanfei looked a little absent-minded. He vaguely saw Li Yanpei's fingers move slightly. After a moment of absent-mindedness, Xu Yuanfei's eyes almost burst out and he stared at Li Yanpei closely.
"Xiaojiang, go downstairs and buy a pack of cigarettes for me." Xu Yuanfei suddenly turned his head and said to Jiang Dongming.
"Okay." Jiang Dongming nodded.
Xu Yuanfei watched as Jiang Dongming left. After Jiang Dongming left, Xu Yuanfei's expression fluctuated. "Xiao Ying, have you really seen Yan Pei move twice before?"
"It's true. Not only did my mother and I see it, Secretary Chen also saw it once. Moreover, it was Secretary Chen who saw it first." Li Ying nodded affirmatively and looked at Xu Yuanfei in confusion. "Uncle Xu, what's wrong?"
"Oh, nothing much." Xu Yuanfei frowned and said uncertainly. "I seem to have seen Yan Pei move a little."
"Is it true?" Li Ying almost jumped up and said excitedly.
"I don't know if I saw wrongly." Xu Yuanfei shook his head slightly, not sure.
"Uncle Xu, I remember that your eyesight is still very good. In the past, you even laughed at my dad for not being able to read the newspaper clearly without reading glasses. You said that your eyesight is better than anyone else's now." Li Ying smiled as if a smile was going to bloom from the bottom of her heart. "Your eyesight is good, you shouldn't have seen wrongly, right?"
"I really can't guarantee it." Xu Yuanfei smiled bitterly and his mood became a little different. "If I didn't see wrongly just now, this old friend really moved. Could a miracle really happen?"
"If comrade Yuanfei is not mistaken, then comrade Yan Pei seems to have moved for the third time in just a few days?" As Chen Xing spoke, he looked at Li Ying and Cai Yalan. A ray of light flashed in his eyes. "Is this a sign of something?"
"Will Yan Pei wake up soon?" Cai Yalan said excitedly.
"Should we ask another doctor to come and take a look?" Li Ying suggested. Thinking of how Xu Yuanfei asked Jiang Dongming to go downstairs to buy cigarettes, Li Ying said, "Uncle Xu, did you deliberately send secretary Jiang away just now?"
"Yes." Xu Yuanfei nodded.
"Uncle Xu, secretary Jiang is actually very good. Since my father was hospitalized, he basically came to take care of him every day. Thanks to him, my mother and I are a lot more relaxed." Li Ying said. The day before yesterday, when they saw their father moved, Jiang Dongming was also very excited at that time. His touching words greatly changed her impression of Jiang Dongming. She also blamed herself for having a biased view of Jiang Dongming in the past. Now seeing that Xu Yuanfei was so suspicious of Jiang Dongming, Li Ying couldn't help but speak up for Jiang Dongming.
"I didn't say that he is not good." Xu Yuanfei smiled and glanced at Chen Xing. In front of Chen Xing, he also had more scruples when speaking, so he didn't say anything casually. After a moment of silence, he said, "One must always be on guard against others. There is no harm in being careful."
Hearing Xu Yuanfei's words, Chen Xing's expression changed again. He turned his head and glanced at Xu Yuanfei, just in time to meet Xu Yuanfei's eyes. Their eyes collided in the air.
Jiang Dongming quickly bought a pack of cigarettes from downstairs and handed them to Xu Yuanfei. At this time, Chen Xing also stood up and said, "I will visit comrade Yan Pei another day when I have time. I will leave first."
Hearing this, Li Ying and her mother sent Chen Xing to the door. Xu Yuanfei was also on the side, but he kept silent. If he wanted to communicate with Chen Xing, there would be plenty of opportunities. What they lacked now was honesty. Xu Yuanfei didn't dare to place too much hope on Chen Xing, and Chen Xing also didn't trust Xu Yuanfei too much. In Chen Xing's eyes, this United Front Minister, who had already left a bad impression on him, was more puzzled.
Coming from downstairs of the hospital, Chen Xing ordered Huang Jianghua, "Xiao Huang, you have just heard about the major fire accident in Lishan County, right? Go and verify this matter and see if it is true."
"Okay." Huang Jianghua nodded, knowing that Chen Xing was talking about what his female schoolmate had said.
The night passed quickly. The next morning, Mayor Li Kaishan came to Chen Xing's office again. There would be a meeting of the National People's Congress in the afternoon. Chang Shengjun could no longer serve as the director of the Municipal Bureau. This seemed sudden, but in fact, the high-level officials in the city had long spread.
Li Kaishan knew from Zhang Lixing's phone call that he did not know that Zhang Lixing had gone to the provincial capital, but Zhang Lixing called him and directly asked him to nominate Yang Hongchao as the director of the Municipal Bureau. Li Kaishan was angry, but he still had to come to Chen Xing to mention this matter. In his opinion, it was inevitable that there would be some hostility between him and Chen Xing because of this matter. Now, he could only try his best to show a respectful attitude towards Chen Xing and reduce the misunderstanding between him and Chen Xing. However, when he thought that it was he who came to oppose Chang Shengjun as the director of the Public Security Bureau yesterday and came to nominate a new candidate today, Li Kaishan smiled bitterly. No matter what he did, it was inevitable that Chen Xing would have some opinions about him.
In Chen Xing's office, Li Kaishan mentioned Yang Hongchao and said, "Secretary Chen, Hongchao has been a policeman for more than 20 years and has worked in the Municipal Bureau for more than 10 years. He has been the main leader of the Municipal Bureau for a long time. Not only is he familiar with the work of the Municipal Bureau, but he also has enough prestige in the municipal public security system. I think it should be suitable for him to be the director of the Municipal Bureau.
Since Comrade Kaishan has nominated him, it's up to you. " Chen Xing said calmly. Chang Shengjun could no longer be the director, and Chen Xing had no one to use. Since Li Kaishan had nominated a candidate, Chen Xing had no reason to object. In the case that there was no one to use, there was no need for him to compete with Li Kaishan on this matter.
Secretary Chen, after all, you are the leader. In terms of personnel, you have the final say. If you think that Hongchao is not suitable, then Secretary Chen, do you have a suitable candidate? " Li Kaishan said with a smile. He said this in the hope that Chen Xing could really nominate another candidate. Deep in his heart, he was more unwilling than anyone to see Zhang Lixing and his gang get what they wanted.
The Public Security Bureau was a department under the government. Since Comrade Kaishan had already chosen a candidate, then he would respect Comrade Kaishan's opinion. Chen Xing glanced at Li Kaishan. He didn't know whether Li Kaishan was hypocritical or something else. At this time, Chen Xing was also hypocritical. If he had a suitable candidate, there was no doubt that he would reject the person Li Kaishan nominated.
Hearing Chen Xing's words, Li Kaishan frowned slightly and sighed in his heart. Chen Xing might think that he was hypocritical, but he didn't know his real thoughts. He just couldn't express them.
After staying in Chen Xing's office for half an hour, Li Kaishan talked with Chen Xing about Yang Hongchao. Then, they talked about some work. Li Kaishan asked for Chen Xing's opinion about several key projects planned by the city next year. Before going to the meeting, he first communicated with Chen Xing and obtained Chen Xing's consent. This was also a work procedure.
When leaving Chen Xing's office, Li Kaishan more or less felt some subtle changes in Chen Xing's attitude. The matter of Chang Shengjun made Chen Xing have some ideas. Li Kaishan made a conclusion in his heart, but this was not something he could control. As a mayor, he also became a gun in the hands of others. Li Kaishan felt more sad than anyone else.
Near noon, Zhang Lixing came back from Nanzhou. Staying in Nanzhou last night, Zhang Lixing went to the Blue River Club. This time, he met the young master Deng Wenhua. Huang Youliang, who had been in Nanzhou for a few days, had already known Deng Wenhua. Last night, Zhang Lixing went to the Blue River Club with Huang Youliang. After knowing Deng Wenhua's temperament, it was much easier to get along with him. Zhang Lixing was drunk last night. He and Deng Wenhua seemed to have the attitude of drinking a thousand cups was not enough for a bosom friend. It was the easiest to make friends at the drinking table. This was true. After one night, he had already become familiar with each other.
Back in the office, Zhang Lixing looked at the time and told the secretary to have the canteen send food up directly. Then he hummed a tune and made tea in the office. He had rushed back just to attend the meeting in the afternoon. At this time, Zhang Lixing was in a very good mood with the mentality of a winner.
"Mayor, why are you so happy? You even sang." Liang Jing pushed the door open, closed the door behind him, and said to Zhang Lixing with a smile.
"What else could it be? I saw that Chang Shengjun suffered a big setback as soon as he came to Mount Wang, so I'm happy." Zhang Lixing smiled. "That Chang Shengjun was probably brought to Mount Wang by Chen Xing. Hey, now that he suffered a big setback, I don't know how our Secretary Chen feels."
"Mayor, you are still the best. Even Secretary Chen lost to you in arm wrestling." Liang Jing smiled and flattered him.
"I don't have that ability. Who is Secretary Chen? The son-in-law of the Zhang family is young and successful. He is only in his thirties, but he is already the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. When I was his age, I was still running errands for the leaders. How can I compare with him? " Zhang Lixing curled his lips with a smile, and his eyes were full of sarcasm.
"In any case, this time, the mayor is better." Liang Jing said with a smile.
"This is Qian Xinlai's plan. In the beginning, he used his connections. It can't be said to be my ability." Zhang Lixing grinned, showing a rare modesty.
This time, as long as Yang Hongchao could successfully become the director, he would have another guarantee in the future. Zhang Lixing smiled again. "Chang Shengjun is only the Secretary of the Party Committee, and he is an outsider. He is a commander without an army. Even if he is ignored, he won't be able to make any waves in the future."
"The mayor is right. In fact, you have always had the final say in the affairs of the city." Liang Jing's eyes swept over Zhang Lixing's face.
"Oh, your little mouth is getting better and better at saying nice words." Zhang Lixing smiled and patted the sofa beside him, motioning Liang Jing to come and sit down.
Liang Jing hesitated for a moment and didn't go over. She didn't have to think to know what Zhang Lixing wanted to do. She smiled and said, "Mayor, you just came back. Maybe someone will look for you later."
"That's right." Hearing this, Zhang Lixing frowned slightly and nodded. He had just come back and had some things to deal with.
At noon, at the exit of the Mountain Gaze Expressway, a BMW with the license plate of Nanzhou came out of the expressway. In the car, Xue Jinbao and his female companion were talking about the old things in college, and the "glorious deeds" of whistling at girls on the roadside with Chen Xing and being called a hooligan.
At this moment, if Chen Xing knew that this bad friend of his from college was showing off these things in front of his female companion, he might want to seal Xue Jinbao's mouth with tape.
"Your classmate is the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. When he was young, did he mess around with you like this?"
Xue Jinbao's female companion smiled with interest.
"Tsk, who hasn't been young and frivolous? Besides, he is now the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, not in the past."
Xue Jinbao smiled. His female companion's family background was in no way inferior to his own. In fact, it was even better than his own family's. Now that he was trying to seduce her, his relationship with Chen Xing naturally became a topic of conversation for him to show off.
Xue Jinbao was called by Chen Xing to invite him over. He said that Wangshan City was rich in forest resources. For a company like the Xue family, which mainly focused on home furnishing, it was undoubtedly worth visiting. In fact, even if it was not for this, Chen Xing had called him personally, he had to come.
After entering the city of Wangshan, Xue Jinbao planned to find a hotel first and then call Chen Xing to give Chen Xing a surprise. Unexpectedly, his car had been targeted.
