Chapter 661 – How many more people do you want to offend?
The next day.
It is cooling at the Subdistrict Office after yesterday’s rain.
Many staff noticed Dong Xuebing’s Cayenne when he entered the compound. Everyone turned and looked at him.
Their Office Director, the God of Plagues, had caused their Subdistrict to be under the limelight again. Many staff from other departments had called to ask about the situation. Everyone is waiting to see what will happen after Dong Xuebing had embarrassed so many District Leaders, including the District Party Secretary. He had even caused Secretary Wang to be hospitalized.
The Cayenne stopped.
Dong Xuebing was about to descend when someone suddenly opened the door for him.
“Good morning, Director.” It was the Office Department’s Deputy Director, Meng Shenguo.
“Oh, Director Meng.” Dong Xuebing looks at him. “Have you recovered?”
Meng Shenguo quickly reply. “I was running a fever. But I recovered after medication.”
Dong Xuebing did not continue and walked towards the office building. When Wang Anshi ordered him to the Party School, Meng Shenguo called in sick and did not come to the Subdistrict Office. But Dong Xuebing doesn’t believe he is sick. He is trying to avoid being seen with Dong Xuebing if he gets implicated. Ah…. You suddenly appear after I settled everything. Dong Xuebing saw the true nature of Meng Shenguo and knows he is easily swayed. Such people cannot be trusted.
9 am.
Dong Xuebing called Zhou Yanru to his office. “How is Secretary Wang’s condition?”
Zhou Yanru replied. “I heard he had undergone surgery.”
“Oh…. Last night?”
“I think so. But I heard his wound is not healing, and he is currently warded in the intensive care unit.”
“Is his life in danger?”
“Not really, but it’s not looking good.” Zhou Yanru lowered her voice. “I heard he had applied for one-month sick leave, and Mayor Geng will be taking over his Party Committee duties.” She is very talkative most of the time, but she will be cautious when talking about work and the District Leaders.
Dong Xuebing nodded. Serve him right.
“Alright. Call for a meeting with the various departments.” Dong Xuebing started his work.
“Ok. I will notify them now.” Zhou Yanru smiles.
“Oh.…” Dong Xuebing remembered something. “You don’t need to inform Secretary Geng.”
“Ah?”
Dong Xuebing replied. “He is unable to attend the meeting.”
Zhou Yanru is puzzled as she leaves the office. What is Geng Xinke busy with? How come he is unable to attend the meeting?
The District Party Secretary will be away for some time and is still undergoing treatment at the hospital. Geng Yuehua will have full control of Nan Shan District during this month, and Geng Xinke’s ‘status’ has gone up. If Wang Anshi can’t recover, Mayor Geng will replace him, and Geng Xinke’s ‘status’ will reach another level. Although this possibility is slim, it cannot be ruled out. Who knows what will happen to Wang Anshi?
So, Geng Xinke is in a good mood today.
Geng Xinke gained a lot from this episode despite not kicking out Dong Xuebing or getting the Model Unit Award. He is confident that Dong Xuebing wants to join his Sister’s faction, and he welcomes this to happen. He even met his Sister to discuss this last night. Dong Xuebing had suppressed him since he arrived, and everything will change soon. He will gain the upper hand against Dong Xuebing. He felt good and sat behind his desk to enjoy his tea.
Footstep sounds can be heard from inside the office.
Geng Xinke put down his teacup and stepped out to see what was happening. A few Staff Members are rushing upstairs with documents.
“What happened?” Geng Xinke asked.
A Staff Member stopped and replied. “Secretary Geng, it’s the Work Party Committee meeting. Director Zhou asked us to send the documents to the meeting room.”
Geng Xinke was stunned. “Work Party Committee meeting? How come I was not informed?”
Geng Xinke quickly returns to his office. He made a call to ask about the meeting, and his face changed. He is the Work Party Deputy Secretary, but no one informed him about this meeting. What is Dong Xuebing up to?
But the next moment, a phone call answered everyone’s question.
The City’s Party School called the Subdistrict Office’s Administrative Office to ask Geng Xinke to immediately report to the Party School. He is required to attend the training course.
Geng Xinke’s face turned green when he heard this.
Go to the Party School?!
You are asking me to report to the Party School now?!
Geng Xinke could not believe his ears. He had not done anything wrong, and it’s not considered a punishment to go to the Party School. It will also look good on his resume with this training. But that’s not the point. It is the timing of him going to the Party School. The District tried to send Dong Xuebing to the Party School, and Geng Xinke will take over his duties. But now, Dong Xuebing doesn’t need to go to the Party School, and he sends Geng Xinke there instead.
This is no longer ‘face-slapping.’
This is giving him slaps after slaps.
Geng Xinke threw his phone on the floor in anger. He realized Dong Xuebing had no intention of joining his Sister’s faction. From the day he fell out with Wang Anshi, Dong Xuebing had decided to be alone.
Dong Xuebing! You are despicable! It was Wang Anshi who had targeted you. Why are you making my life difficult?
News of Geng Xinke going to the Party School spread.
Zhou Yanru is speechless. She finally understood what Dong Xuebing meant earlier.
All the staff drew a deep breath. Director Dong is face-slapping Mayor Geng after slapping the District Party Committee. Geng Yuehua is the Acting District Party Secretary, and targeting her brother is equivalent to creating trouble for her.
Everyone is speechless.
This guy is too evil.
Director Dong, how many more people are you going to offend?
