Chapter 655: Give up

“Director, tomorrow….”

“Let’s talk tomorrow.”

“But Secretary Geng and the National Respect and Care for the elderly’s model unit award….”

“Director, how about I go speck to my Uncle…. Secretary Wang again?”

“I appreciate it. Go home and have a good rest.”

Qu Yiqiang, Zhou Yanru, and Wang Yuling sighed and left Dong Xuebing’s office. They looked at each other along the corridor and did not say a word. Dong Xuebing is going to the Party School, and it is a huge blow to them. All of them don’t know what will happen to them when Dong Xuebing is not around.

Work Party Secretary Office.

After they left, Dong Xuebing looked at his watch before packing his bag and going downstairs. As he passed the Administration Lobby, he shook his head. Zhou Yanru, Qu Yiqiang, and Wang Yuling had gone to his office to help him think of a solution. Although there’s nothing they can do, it’s the thoughts that count. Instead, Subdistrict Office Deputy Director, Meng Shenguo, did not appear today. Dong Xuebing had accepted him and gave him new tasks last week, and he missed work claiming to be sick.

Everybody hits a man who is down.

But I am still not down yet, and some people have avoided him.

Maybe some people are more sensitive. Dong Xuebing could feel the changes in the staff from the way they look at him.

7 pm.

Subdistrict Family Quarters.

Dong Xuebing has no mood for dinner after he gets back. He suppressed his anger and smoked in the living room. After a few cigarettes, he snubbed his cigarette.

Sit back and do nothing?!

This is not something Dong Xuebing would do.

Dong Xuebing picked up his phone and wanted to call Xie Huilan. But decided not to. Although his relationship with her is not announced, there’s nothing to hide. Xiang Daofa recommended him to Nan Shan District, and he believes Wang Anshi knows about his relationship with Xie Huilan. Since Wang Anshi dares to target him, that means he doesn’t care about what Xie Huilan thinks. It is useless for Xie Huilan to be the mediator.

Are there any other solutions?

How about asking Xie Huilan’s first Aunt in the Ministry of Civil Affairs to retrace Guang Ming Subdistrict Office’s Role Model Unit award? But that will tell others that he is not thinking for the organization. He will also lose his position.

Dong Xuebing has never been so stressed before.

Wang Anshi’s ungratefulness and backstabbing, Geng Yuehua’s consent and indulgence, Xue Qingrong’s revenge…. Dong Xuebing is surrounded by enemies now.

Party School?!

Why should I go to the Party School just because you all sent me?!

Dong Xuebing’s eyes become cold. He is left with only one solution that can turn things around. But this is his last resort, and he would not use it if he had any other choice because it will greatly offend all Nan Shan District Leaders. Even someone like him is hesitating.

Should I do this?

Dong Xuebing could not decide. Aunt Xuan is due in two months, and he has become soft-hearted as he will be a father. He considered for a while and decided to call Wang Anshi to see if he could mitigate the situation. Wang Anshi’s response can also help him make this difficult decision.

Ring…. Ring…. Ring….

Dong Xuebing is calling Wang Anshi’s mobile phone from his apartment landline.

“Who is it?” Wang Anshi answered.

“Secretary Wang, I am Dong Xuebing.”

Wang Anshi paused for a second. “What is it?”

“I am calling to ask you about your illness. Are you feeling better?” Dong Xuebing purposely asked about his appendicitis.

Wang Anshi replied nonchalantly. “I am fine.”

Dong Xuebing paused for a second. “That’s good. Oh, I had made a dinner reservation and would like to invite you.”

Wang Anshi interrupted before Dong Xuebing could finish. “I am busy today. Let’s talk about this another time.” Du…… The call was cut. Wang Anshi’s attitude is different from the time Dong Xuebing treated him. He is treating Dong Xuebing as someone dispensable after using him. He is ungrateful to Dong Xuebing for saving him and still decide to deal with him.

This bastard.

Dong Xuebing threw his phone down. He cannot tolerate this anymore.

This phone call helped Dong Xuebing make his decision and is no longer hesitating.

Do you think you can kick me aside after using me because you are the District Party Secretary? Since you are ungrateful, then don’t blame me!

You want to send me to the Party School!? Go to hell!

Dong Xuebing got mad. Join a faction to be closer to the Leaders?! F*ck! I will not join any factions in Nan Shan District! I don’t care who I offend in the future! Let’s see what you all can do to me!

Dong Xuebing does not think like most Government Officials, and he prefers to go head-to-head with others.

Since you are making my life miserable, I will not make your lives good either!

I shall see who can send me to the Party School!

Dong Xuebing took a deep breath and called Yang Zhaode. “Uncle Yang, it’s me.”

“Ah… Xiao Bing. Haha….” Yang Zhaode laughed. “Have you had dinner? I had prepared a table full of dishes. Do you want to join us?”

“Someone is sending me to the party school. Sigh…. I have no appetite.”

Yang Zhaode paused for a second. “Party School? The City’s Party School?”

Dong Xuebing replied. “Yes. Tomorrow’s Government Leaders’ training course.”

“I had seen the name list for the training course, but I did not see your name.”

“Oh, it should be submitted by the District Government today.”

Yang Zhaode laughed. “Seems like you had offended many people. Haha…. Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

“I just found out about this. The District had acted fast, and someone had submitted my name. It’s too late for me to reject it.” Dong Xuebing continued to tell Yang Zhaode about what happened.
