The next day.
Friday morning.
Dong Xuebing woke up early. He stood by the windows and saw the District Governnt’s Audi A6 waiting downstairs after washing up and breakfast. It seems to have just arrived. He grabbed his bag and keys and listened to any movents outside his door.
“Click…” It is the sound of a door opening from downstairs.
“I am leaving.” Geng Yuehua said.
“Are you coming back tonight?” Geng Yuehua’s mother asked.
“It depends.”
“If you are coming back for dinner, give a call.”
“Ok.” Tut… tut… tut… the high heels footsteps sounds are getting further. She is walking down the stairs.
Dong Xuebing heard it and quickly opened his door. He walks down the stairs, and Geng Xinke’s apartnt door has closed. “Fourth floor,” “Third floor,” “Second floor” The footsteps are fast and loud. When Dong Xuebing reached the landing of the first floor, he saw Geng Yuehua’s back. She had pined her hair up and did not have any make upon. But she had changed her heels and wore a pair of black stockings.
Geng Yuehua has the attractiveness of a mature woman.
Dong Xuebing finally caught up with her on the ground floor. “Good morning, Mayor Geng.”
Geng Yuehua turns and looks at him. “…… morning.”
“Have you taken your breakfast?”
“Yes.”
Geng Yuehua did not stop and went straight to the Audi. She got in quickly and closed the door.
“Fine.” She must be mad with .
Dong Xuebing stood there and watched the Audi drives out of the compound. He woke up early to ‘et’ Geng Yuehua and see her attitude towards him after the ‘underwear incident.’ But she still treated him like before, and he could not tell what she was thinking. He felt he could take it as she was offended. He had snatched her younger brother’s position, sent him to the hospital, and ordered an insulting dish. She will not be so forgiving to forgive him after so many incidents.
Morning.
Guang Ming Subdistrict Office.
When Dong Xuebing reached his office, Zhou Yanru entered with a stack of docunts. “Director, my husband thanked you for the cigarettes.”
Dong Xuebing smiles. “Don’t ntion it. Let know when he finishes it. I still have so here.”
“Haha… I don’t dare.”
“Oh, what is it?”
Zhou Yanru puts the docunts on the desk neatly. “The District had called for a last-minute eting. It is at 10 am in the District Governnt building. The eting is about the managent of the nursing hos, and all Subdistrict Office Directors and Civil Affairs Leaders must attend. This eting was supposed to be held in the District’s Ministry of Civil Affairs, but it was delayed. The venue is changed to the District Governnt, and they seem to be very concerned about this. These are the information prepared by the office departnt for your reference.”
“10 am?” Dong Xuebing flipped the docunt. “Alright. Is the Passat available?”
“It is parked in the backyard. Do you want to arrange a driver?”
“No need. I will go alone.”
Dong Xuebing looked at his watch and did not leave imdiately. The District had previously issued directives on respecting and honoring the elderlies and wanted all Subdistrict Offices to submit a report. Now, they want a eting to discuss nursing ho managent. He doesn’t know what the District Governnt is trying to do. Nan Shan District is one of the top few Districts when it cos to elderly care. They are much better than Yan Tai County and don’t need to do anything to improve it. They have sufficient funds and manpower, but why are they keep emphasizing elderlies recently? Although he is puzzled, he must be prepared. He read all the docunts in his office before driving to the District Governnt Building. He did not drive his Cayenne as he is going to the District Governnt.
Nan Shan District.
District Governnt Building.
Dong Xuebing arrived slightly late because he was reading the docunts. He saw many Subdistrict Offices’ cars parked outside.
Sixth floor. District Governnt eting Room.
Almost all the seats were taken up, and other than a few leaders whispering to each other, it was very quiet. A few secretaries are arranging docunts on the rostrum. There are no naplates on the tables, and Dong Xuebing sat on an empty seat. He didn’t know anyone there, and he waited quietly for the eting to start. This eting is for Subdistrict Office Directors, Ministry of Civil Affairs Leaders, People’s Office staff. Social Affairs Directors and Deputy Directors. It’s rare to see anyone below thirty years old at this level, and Dong Xuebing, who is in his twenties, stood out among them. Also, he is an unfamiliar face, and many people notice him.
This is Dong Xuebing’s first eting at the District Governnt, and no one knows him.
Dong Xuebing sat beside a Governnt Staff in his early thirties. He is a Deputy Director from the District’s Social Affairs Office. He looks at Dong Xuebing and wonders who he is. When did Nan Shan District have such a young middle managent leader? Out of curiosity, he asked. “You are?”
Dong Xuebing looks at him. “Dong Xuebing. Guang Ming Subdistrict Office Director.”
That person paused for a second and quickly extended his hand for a handshake.
“…. Nice to et you.”
“ too.” Dong Xuebing shook his hand.
That person had changed his attitude imdiately after hearing his na.
The Deputy Director had thought this young man had co to the wrong place and asked him out of curiosity.
It turns out to be the Director of a Subdistrict Office. Not only he has more authority, but his rank is also higher. How can he get to Section Chief rank at his age? Is he even twenty-four?
Even if this person has backings, he also cannot get promoted so fast. Did he climb up with credits? How great must his credit be to be promoted so fast? Even Nan Shan District’s youngest Division Chief level, Geng Yuehua, beco a Subdistrict Office Work Party Secretary and Director at twenty-seven.
A twenty-four years old Subdistrict Office is standing out too much!
