Cao Wuwen told Ma Yingjie what was in his heart. This was what he had always wanted to say to Ma Yingjie, but he didn't know how to say it. This kind of words were too real. Once they were true, it was very easy to hurt others. No one was willing to peel off the truth and show it to others. That kind of show was often cruel and ugly. Who would be willing to face it directly?
Cao Wuwen had no choice but to tell Ma Yingjie what was in his heart. Now, he could only try to make as few enemies as possible. One Yi Shuiqing was enough to give him a headache. If Ma Yingjie was involved, he would really be dead. Therefore, he had to calm Ma Yingjie down.
At this moment, Ma Yingjie finally understood his situation. It turned out that his identity was not glory, but trouble and limitation. Moreover, what Cao Wuwen said was very reasonable. If he were the leader, would he be willing to have such a person by his side? If he were to put Ma Yingjie in an important position, he was afraid that Ma Yingjie would be arrogant and look down on his leader. If he didn't use Ma Yingjie, he was afraid that Ma Yingjie would complain to his boss. In short, it was not easy to control the degree, and it was also very difficult to control. Who would be willing to pay so much for a person who was not his trusted subordinate? Therefore, the best way was to force Ma Yingjie to leave.
When Ma Yingjie was about to say something, someone knocked on the door of Cao Wuwen's office. Ma Yingjie said to Cao Wuwen, "Secretary, I'll go and open the door."
"Go and see who it is." Cao Wuwen answered. He was a little weak now. This time, Yi Shuiqing and Ma Yingjie really hurt him. He huddled his whole body in the boss's chair. He didn't want to move, or in other words, he couldn't move.
When Ma Yingjie went to open the door, he was surprised to see Wang Xiaodan standing outside. He was stunned for a second, but only for a second. Then he calmed himself down and said, "Director Wang is here."
Wang Xiaodan didn't expect to meet Ma Yingjie at this time. He nodded and didn't say anything. He walked around Ma Yingjie and entered the office. As he walked, he said, "Hello, Secretary Cao."
Seeing Wang Xiaodan, Ma Yingjie seemed to understand something. He hurriedly said to Cao Wuwen, "Secretary Cao, I have to go. You guys can talk."
Cao Wuwen didn't ask Ma Yingjie to stay. Ma Yingjie didn't look at Wang Xiaodan. He opened the door of Cao Wuwen's office and strode out. He seemed to walk with a heroic spirit. Was he going to end his trip to Qin County in failure? "Or should I pretend that I don't care about leaving Qin County?"
When Ma Yingjie went downstairs, he was thinking about these questions. When he returned to his office and buried his body in the sand, he was angry with himself. He had overestimated himself. Besides, he thought nobody could do anything to him because he had his boss and Situ Lan. But Cao Wuwen's words woke him up. Yes, who would be willing to let a person like him wander around under their eyes? The question now was, was he willing to be toyed with by Yi Shuiqing's palm? Even if he wanted to leave Qin County, he had to leave as a winner instead of being driven out by Cao Wuwen and Yi Shuiqing.
Ma Yingjie picked up his phone and dialed Liu Feng's number. When Liu Feng saw that it was Ma Yingjie's office number, he immediately said, "Hello, County Mayor Ma."
"Big Brother Liu," Ma Yingjie greeted him politely.
Liu Feng was flattered. He immediately said, "County Mayor Ma, please let me know if you need anything."
"If you're not busy now, let's meet at the water mill," said Ma Yingjie.
"Okay, I'll go now." Liu Feng agreed quickly. It was the election day, and everyone was trying to get votes. Liu Feng was anxious. He thought about talking to Ma Yingjie, but he was worried that it would backfire. Moreover, the position of Mayor of Peng Qingshan had been vacant, and he was not sure what Boss Luo was thinking about. Now that Ma Yingjie had personally called him, even if there was a huge matter, he would put it aside and go to Ma Yingjie's appointment.
After Ma Yingjie put down the phone, he walked out of the office. He looked around the corner, worried that he might bump into Wang Xiaodan. He did not know what was wrong with him. Why was he afraid of seeing her? Didn't he promise to protect her? But why did he feel so uncomfortable when he saw her go to Cao Wuwen's office? Yes, he cared about the position of Executive Deputy County Mayor, but he could not allow Wang Xiaodan to care about the position of Director of the Tourism Bureau. Moreover, he had promised to Wang Xiaodan that he would recommend her and remove the word "agent" from her name. But once there was a problem, he still had to take care of himself.
Ma Yingjie thought of this and understood Wang Xiaodan's eagerness to express his position. It was a critical moment now. The election would only take place once every five years, and everyone wanted to take the lead. How many people could afford to wait for five years?
Ma Yingjie noticed that there were not many people walking in the corridor. Perhaps it was a special stage of the election, and people were trying to show off and get votes in the office. As Ma Yingjie thought about this, he quickened his steps and tried to leave the government compound as soon as possible.
As soon as Ma Yingjie got out of the government compound, he hailed a taxi and went straight to the water mill. In the taxi, Ma Yingjie kept staring out of the window. Everything outside the window seemed to be the same as when he was back in Qin County, but his heart was very different. Living in Qin County for almost a year had made him understand a lot of things. There were successes and failures. There was joy and hesitation. No matter which one it was, it was life, and it was the real life of an official. He understood that these were the paths he should walk. Whether they were right or wrong, he had come this far, so he had to continue walking forward.
When the taxi arrived at the water mill, Ma Yingjie got out of the taxi. As soon as he arrived at the door, the female boss, Xiao Xiuqin, came up to him and said with a smile, "County Mayor Ma, you're here."
"Yes. Which private room is Secretary Liu in? " Ma Yingjie looked at Xiao Xiuqin and asked. Xiao Xiuqin was dressed beautifully today, but Ma Yingjie was not in the mood to appreciate the female boss's charm. He was anxious to see Liu Feng.
"Follow me." Xiao Xiuqin led the way in front with her waist crossed. Without saying anything, Ma Yingjie followed Xiao Xiuqin to a private room with red sleeves and incense. Xiao Xiuqin directly pushed the door of the private room open. Liu Feng was already sitting inside. As soon as he saw Ma Yingjie, he hurried over and shook hands with Ma Yingjie. "County Mayor Ma, you're here."
As soon as Ma Yingjie sat down, Xiao Xiuqin left the private room tactfully. After a while, Xiao Xiuqin brought two cups of Tie Guanyin tea and some snacks. She did not ask the waiter to bring them, but she did it herself. Perhaps Liu Feng had asked her to do so. Moreover, as soon as she put down the things, she left the private room and closed the door for them before Ma Yingjie said anything. Xiao Xiuqin's series of actions made Ma Yingjie understand that Liu Feng was ready to have a secret talk with him. Needless to say, they must have a close relationship if they were to meet at this moment. Since Cao Wuwen made it clear during the meeting that canvassing for votes was not allowed, and if anyone reported it, the candidate would be disqualified. Therefore, everyone had been trying their best to reduce their gatherings recently. However, there were still many private activities, and they were getting more and more intense.
"Brother Liu, you can call me Ma Yingjie or Brother Ma. We don't have any titles here, "Ma Yingjie said sincerely while looking at Liu Feng.
"Thanks, Brother Ma," Liu Feng responded immediately. He glanced at Ma Yingjie's face for a while, but he soon moved his gaze away to look at the cup of Tie Guanyin in front of him.
"Brother Liu, I'm sure you know that I'm in trouble." Ma Yingjie looked at Liu Feng and told him about the thread incident directly.
Liu Feng knew about the thread incident, but it was deleted soon. He thought that Ma Yingjie was powerful enough to suppress the issue quickly. Never had he thought that Ma Yingjie would come because of that, so he was a little disappointed. However, Liu Feng did not show it. Since Ma Yingjie came to him at this moment, at least he was someone that Ma Yingjie could trust. With that thought in mind, he listened to Ma Yingjie seriously.
Ma Yingjie roughly told Liu Feng about the thread incident. Liu Feng listened without saying anything because he did not know what to say. It was the leader's privacy, so it was not appropriate for him to interrupt.
Ma Yingjie said after he finished talking about the thread incident, "Brother Liu, because of the thread incident, I might not be able to get the position of Executive Deputy Mayor, so I'd like to leave Qin County."
Liu Feng could not believe what he heard as soon as Ma Yingjie was done talking. He widened his eyes and stared at Ma Yingjie. Ma Yingjie took a few sips of tea and said, "I shouldn't have left the hotel with Director Wang at this moment and let others take advantage of me. It was a mistake that I made, and now that I've made a mistake, I think I should do something instead of waiting for death. What do you think? Brother Liu. " Ma Yingjie's eyes were filled with sincerity. Liu Feng was excited when he called him Brother Liu. 'Is Ma Yingjie going to do something? Moreover, it must be beneficial to me. Otherwise, Ma Yingjie wouldn't come to me. ' With that thought in mind, Liu Feng said immediately, "Brother Ma, just tell me if there's anything you need. I'll do it as long as I can."
"Alright, since Brother Liu has said this, I will thank you in advance." Ma Yingjie clinked his teacup with Liu Feng. Then, both Ma Yingjie and Liu Feng put down their teacups at the same time, especially Liu Feng. He looked at Ma Yingjie quietly and waited for Ma Yingjie to speak his mind.
"Here's the thing, Brother Liu. I have a piece of evidence about Secretary Cao Wuwen. Pass it to Director Peng Qingshan secretly. Our boss can't know about this. You must tell Director Peng Qingshan about this. Other than the three of us, no one else can know about this. Do you understand? " Ma Yingjie's eyes were filled with eagerness and trust. Of course, he was only acting like that. After what Yi Shuiqing did to him, he would not trust anyone else. He needed Liu Feng's help now, so of course, he would give Liu Feng the corresponding conditions.
