Chapter 800: Xiao Dong is promoted to Deputy Division Chief

Evening.

Beijing’s Party Committee Family Villas. Dong Xuebing took a dump in a toilet on the first floor when his phone rang. It was Yan Tai County’s Investment Promotion Agency Deputy Chief Luo Haiting. Sister Luo had worked with Dong Xuebing for some time. She was the first staff to show her support for him when she was still an Office Director. She was also a lovely middle-aged female staff who liked to dress up.

“Hello, it’s me.”

“Chief, I’m Luo Haiting.”

“Haha…. Sister Luo, how have you been?”

“Sighed….”

“Huh? What’s wrong?”

Dong Xuebing knew Luo Haiting should be facing some problems when she sighed. The source of this content is novelenglish.net . (f)ire.ɴet

Luo Haiting replied. “Director, I know very few people in the County, and you are the only one who can help me.”

“What happened?” Dong Xuebing asked. “Tell me.”

“Remember I called you after you published that article about the earthquake? You told me there would be an earthquake and asked me to leave and avoid it. I left that night with my husband and son, and the earthquake happened the next day. I know I have lots of work to do in the County, and I tried to return immediately. But the roads were blocked, and aftershocks were happening. I couldn’t return until the roads were cleared a few days later. The Investment Promotion Agency building collapsed during the earthquake. Thanks to Mayor Xie’s order to evacuate, we got a low casualty rate. However, two staff members died during the earthquake. Now, someone had reported me for leaving in advance before the disaster.”

Dong Xuebing frowned. “Shouldn’t it be common sense to avoid the disaster?”

“But not everyone thinks so. They blamed me for the deaths of our Agency’s staff, and I am suspended from my duties now.”

“Is this the County Party Committee’s decision?”

“I don’t know. You must help me.”

Xie Huilan had just left, and Xiang Daofa immediately attacked my people!

“Alright. Don’t worry about it and wait for my call.”

“Thank you, Director.”

“What’s there to thank when we are so close?” Dong Xuebing replied and felt his reply was giving mixed signals. He remembered Luo Haiting always teased him by stroking his legs with her feet. “Sister Xie, don’t worry about it. I will help you.”

Luan Xiaoping replied. “I am depending on you.”

“Alright. Bye.” Dong Xuebing hung up.

Dong Xuebing knew it’s not easy to settle this as Xie Huilan would be promoted to Deputy City Mayor. She had overtaken Xiang Daofa and entered the City Government. The City had no intentions of transferring Xiang Daofa as Yan Tai County had done well during the earthquake response. After Xie Huilan left, he had complete control of the County, and he started to kick out her former supporters.

This was a difficult request.

Furthermore, Luo Haiting was not in Yan Tai County for a few days after the earthquake. She could not explain herself if anyone accused her of abandoning her post.

Dong Xuebing left the toilet.

Han Jing, Xie Guobang, and Xie Huilan watched TV in the living room.

Dong Xuebing saw his parent-in-law’s empty glasses and quickly poured tea for them. “Dad, Mum, have some tea.”

Han Jing smiled. “My son-in-law is so caring. Sit. You had been busy since you came this afternoon.”

“I’m fine, Mum.”

Xie Huilan giggled. “This guy cannot sit still. You should just let him serve you two well when we are here.”

Dong Xuebing added. “That’s right. Just tell me what you need me to do.”

Xie Huilan had given Dong Xuebing's face at his house, and he was returning the favor.

They chatted for a while, and Xie Guobang stood up. He patted Dong Xuebing’s shoulder. “Xiao Bing, come with me to the study for a chat.”

“Yes.”

Study upstairs.

Xie Guobang sat behind a desk and gestured for Dong Xuebing to sit in front of him. “I called you upstairs to seek your opinions. Do you have any departments in mind for your upcoming transfer?”

Dong Xuebing immediately brightened up. “I will go wherever I am needed.”

Xie Guobang laughed. “You don’t need to give such official replies when we are alone.”

“Err…. Dad, I don’t know which department I should go to. I will follow your advice.”

Xie Guobang nodded. “I had spoken to your Uncle Yang and Huilan about your transfer, but it was not finalized. It was your Fourth Grandpa who approached me. He wanted me to ask you if you are interested in Commission for Discipline Inspection work.”

Fourth Grandpa?!

The Central Government’s Commission for Discipline Inspection Secretary?!

Dong Xuebing knew he had officially entered the Xie Family’s core level and was overjoyed. This was a good offer as the Commission for Discipline Inspection is a powerful department.

Xie Guobang saw Dong Xuebing agreed and said. “Alright. The City Commission for Discipline Inspection’s transfer orders will be issued soon. You should be prepared.”

Dong Xuebing replied. “Thanks, Dad.”

Xie Guobang laughed and waved his hand. “Do you still have anything else in mind?”

Dong Xuebing was about to say no when he suddenly remembered Luo Haiting. “Dad, I have a former subordinate, Luo Haiting. We worked together at Yan Tai County Investment Promotion Agency. After Huilan left, someone in the County found fault and suspended her. Her situation is quite bad now. Can I bring her along if I am going to the City’s Commission for Discipline Inspection? We had worked well for some time and…. Errr…. Forget it if it’s too troublesome.”

Xie Guobang thought for a while. “If she had not made any grave mistakes, it should not be a problem.”

Dong Xuebing was relieved. “Thanks, Dad.”

Next day.

Dong Xuebing graduated from the Central Party School and collected his Porsche Panamera. After changing the registration plate to Beijing 9999, he received the City’s transfer orders.

Dong Xuebing would be relieved from all his duties in Nan Shan District Guang Ming Subdistrict Office duties. He would be posted to Fen Zhou City’s Commission for Discipline Inspection as the First Office’s Inspection Director. His rank would be Deputy Division Chief.
