??823: Chapter 824: Promoted

823: Chapter 824: Promoted

“Xiao Jiang is here, take a seat!” Secretary Jin is a man in his fifties, slightly plump, but still quite spirited.

At this mont, his face carries a smile.

Seeing the smile on Secretary Jin’s face, Jiang Xueliang felt greatly relieved.

The leader’s deanor often sets the tone, and such a deanor is enough to indicate that today’s eting wouldn’t be bad news.

After sitting down, Secretary Jin said, “Xiao Jiang, how have you been doing these last few days at the Cultural House?”

“It’s been alright.” Jiang Xueliang was not the kind of person who enjoyed tattling, so he responded vaguely at this mont.

Secretary Jin slightly shook his head and said, “I don’t feel good about the work arrangent for you.

Soone talented and hardworking like you should not be buried in a place like the Cultural House.”

Jiang Xueliang’s heart suddenly began to race.

Having once been the deputy director of the district committee office, he knew all too well what such words from a leader ant—it signaled a promotion.

Seeing the excited expression on Jiang Xueliang’s face, Secretary Jin smiled faintly, and then turned serious again, saying, “Xiao Jiang, do you have the confidence to take on a more important role?”

Jiang Xueliang straightened up and said loudly, “Secretary Jin, I am confident.”

Secretary Jin said, “Hmm, then I am planning to let you take over as the head of the office.

After a transition period, I will have further important use for you.”

“Ah?

Still deputy director?” Jiang Xueliang frowned slightly.

No matter which departnt he was transferred to, he was sowhat reluctant to continue being Liu Qingyuan’s assistant.

“Not deputy director, but director,” Secretary Jin said with a smile on his face.

“Director?

What about Director Liu?” Jiang Xueliang knew he should not ask such a question, but he couldn’t help asking directly.

“Director Liu…

will be arranged for sothing else,” said Secretary Jin, his expression a bit odd.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xueliang imdiately stood up and said, “Good!

I will definitely not fail the organization’s trust in

and will do my job well.”

This was trendous news, and it was almost too much for him to take in all at once.

“That settles it.

Prepare yourself these next few days, and return to work in a couple of days.

However, don’t spread the word about this yet.

Once the work position here is arranged, I’ll transfer you over,” Secretary Jin said.

“Alright!” Jiang Xueliang promptly agreed, and Secretary Jin didn’t say much else, so he also started to prepare to leave.

Just then, footsteps were heard from outside.

Liu Qingyuan hurriedly ca in and said, “Secretary Jin, it’s not good, the people from the Discipline Inspection Commission are here.”

Secretary Jin was stunned for a mont and said, “This quickly.”

Jiang Xueliang’s heart dropped, thinking whether this stroke of misfortune could really happen just as a leader who appreciated him appeared, only for things to go wrong imdiately.

If that was the case, his promotion was definitely going down the drain.

In the midst of speaking, four people walked in, and one of them took out an ID card and ca directly before Secretary Jin.

“Secretary Jin, hello, we are from the Discipline Inspection Commission.

We need your office director Liu Qingyuan to co back with us for an investigation,” the person said.

“Sure, we will definitely cooperate with your work,” Secretary Jin replied calmly, apparently completely unsurprised by the situation.

Jiang Xueliang, on the other hand, was shocked: What’s going on?

How could Liu Qingyuan suddenly be in trouble?

Liu Qingyuan was even more terrified, his face turning pale as he urgently said, “You’ve got the wrong person, there must be a mistake.”

“Liu Qingyuan, please cooperate with our investigation.

If you are innocent, we will naturally let you return,” the Discipline Inspection Commission’s staff mber said sternly.

“You have the wrong person, you definitely have the wrong person.” Liu Qingyuan cried out twice, then hurriedly said to Secretary Jin, “Secretary Jin, save , I don’t want to go to the Discipline Inspection Commission.”

Secretary Jin said indifferently, “Cooperate well with the work, the comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission will not falsely accuse good people.” It was clear that he would offer no help.

“Comrade Liu Qingyuan, co with us,” they said.

Liu Qingyuan’s gaze suddenly turned to Jiang Xueliang, his expression becoming fierce as he shouted, “Jiang Xueliang, did you betray ?

Was it you?”

Finally regaining his composure, Jiang Xueliang spoke indifferently, “I’m not the kind of person to stoop so low, but if you’ve done nothing wrong, you naturally have nothing to fear.”

“It was you!

It was you!

Jiang Xueliang, I won’t let you get away with this, I definitely won’t let you go,” cried Liu Qingyuan.

Amidst Liu Qingyuan’s shouting, he was taken away by the people from the Discipline Inspection Commission.

Secretary Jin’s expression remained as calm as before, still with a smile, he said, “I originally thought to transfer you over in a few days, but now it seems you’ll have to take up the post imdiately.”

Jiang Xueliang was stunned for a mont, then quickly said, “I am ready to accept the organization’s arrangent at any ti.”

Secretary Jin nodded and said, “Alright, go take care of things at work, and I’ll arrange for the transfer imdiately.”

Coming out from the district committee, Jiang Xueliang felt as if he was living in a dream, hurriedly taking out his phone and calling his wife, saying, “Honey…”

Hearing the tremble in Jiang Xueliang’s voice, Cui Ying was startled and anxiously said, “Husband, don’t despair.

No matter what happens, you still have a family, you have , and you have the children.”

“It’s not that, I’m just too moved, I…

I…

have been transferred back to the district committee office.”

“Ah?

That’s great news!” Cui Ying also beca excited and exclaid.

“Yeah, not only that but I’ve also beco the director.”

“Director?

What about Liu Qingyuan?”

“He has been taken away by the Discipline Inspection Commission.”

Cui Ying was also bewildered, saying, “My goodness, what’s happening?”

By now, Jiang Xueliang had cald down a bit and said, “I too find this situation rather strange.

When Secretary Jin spoke to , Liu Qingyuan was fine, but Secretary Jin straightforwardly told

that I would be arranged to take the director’s position.

And even when the Discipline Inspection Commission ca, he didn’t seem surprised at all, as if he knew Liu Qingyuan would be in trouble.”

“It seems likely.”

“But having

directly take over feels a bit odd.”

“What’s odd?

Your talent is there for all to see, and the leader can see that too.”

“That’s not right, there are many talented people, and many are coveting this position.

Without soone advocating for , it wouldn’t have been my turn.

Suddenly, I thought of soone who could have helped.”

“Who do you think it is?” Cui Ying couldn’t think of anyone.

“Sijie’s boyfriend, Song Xiaodong,” Jiang Xueliang said slowly.

“Really?

Little Song is just doing so business; how could he have that much influence?”

“But I am almost certain it was him.

I’m going to call him now and ask for clarification,” Jiang Xueliang said.

Jiang Xueliang took a deep breath, took out his phone, and dialed Song Xiaodong’s number.
