Like an old friend, Xu Qianli ’cared’ for Fu Guotai for a while before finally letting him go.
Fu Guotai gasped for air, barely managing to catch his breath.
Breath was back, but don’t even ntion how much his arms and ribs hurt. Even the slightest movent, even a breath, was excruciating.
Xu Qianli, that bastard, was really despicable. I thought when he ca to Cailin County, he would be scared to death, fearing that I would deal with him, likely crying and begging for rcy on his knees.
Never did I expect him to be so ruthless. Not only was he not scared, but he was even more domineering, showing who’s boss right away, probably breaking a few of my ribs.
This kid is too brutal, truly cruel. Fu Guotai just couldn’t figure out where he got the nerve.
Could it be that he’s much more formidable than my investigation suggested?
Impossible. This kid is from an ordinary family with no background. Back then, he stood firm in officialdom only thanks to old County Magistrate Jiang City’s support, with no powerful backing.
A solitary guy transferred to a place like Cailin County, on what basis is he so assertive?
Anyone else in this situation would have been scared out of their wits by now, but Xu Qianli, not only wasn’t scared, he even gave a show of strength. It’s baffling.
Beside him, Zhang Dongyang noticed Fu Guotai’s suffering and was equally puzzled. How could Xu Qianli have such assertiveness?
Xu Qianli cleared his throat and reached out his hand towards Zhang Dongyang, "Secretary Zhang, oh no, County Magistrate Zhang, it’s been a while. I’ve missed you since our last eting in Jiang City. It’s a great day to see you again. We brothers should definitely catch up and have a few drinks when there’s a chance."
Xu Qianli was being overly warm, but Zhang Dongyang didn’t dare to extend his hand.
He’d clearly seen Fu Guotai suffer just now and feared if he extended his hand, Xu Qianli might crush his fingers.
He didn’t extend his hand, so Xu Qianli grabbed it, shaking it fiercely.
Hiss...
Zhang Dongyang sucked in a cold breath in pain.
My goodness, my dear mother, the pain is as if my hand was being crushed.
This bastard Xu Qianli is not just ruthless; he’s ridiculously vicious. Zhang Dongyang suffered a lot.
He wanted to pull his hand back, but how could he? Xu Qianli just wouldn’t let go.
It was so painful he wanted to scream but couldn’t make a sound, worried others would laugh at him.
Enduring both pain and humiliation, Zhang Dongyang couldn’t feel worse.
Beside him, Fu Guotai was inexplicably delighted, having suffered himself but feeling secretly happy seeing Zhang Dongyang’s misfortune.
Zhang Hong said, "Alright, stop standing here. Let’s discuss things inside and start the eting to handover."
Only then did Xu Qianli release Zhang Dongyang’s hand, but he didn’t let him off. He lightly patted his shoulder, "County Magistrate Zhang, let’s listen to Minister Zhang and have the eting first. We’ll talk about our issues later. I’m sure there’s plenty for us to discuss in due ti."
Hiss...
Zhang Dongyang sucked in another cold breath, almost having his shoulder shattered by Xu Qianli.
This bastard is not just ruthless; he’s extrely vicious!
Zhang Dongyang was beginning to regret transferring this kid to Cailin County.
He thought sending him to Cailin County would make him easy to control, to manipulate as he wished.
Now it seems things are not as straightforward as he imagined.
With Xu Qianli being such a thorn, it’s genuinely not easy to brutally sort him out.
It seems there’s a need to discuss with Fu Guotai to adjust the plan to handle Xu Qianli.
Everyone was watching Xu Qianli, Fu Guotai, and Zhang Dongyang’s interaction. It was obvious to any discerning person that Fu Guotai and Zhang Dongyang suffered at Xu Qianli’s hands.
People initially expected to see Xu Qianli being handled, but it was turned on its head. Xu Qianli dealt with Fu Guotai and Zhang Dongyang instead, giving them a harsh lesson.
Unbelievable; where did this kid get such audacity?
Others might not understand, but Ma Xiaoyan knew well that while Fu Guotai and Zhang Dongyang were formidable, the top two of Cailin County, in Xu Qianli’s eyes, they’re nothing.
Hmph, thinking they could handle Xu Qianli, what audacity they have!
If they were smart, they’d leave Xu Qianli alone. If they dared act against him, they’d have a lot to deal with.
Hehe, a big strong ally like this, I must cling tightly. Can’t let him slip away.
Resolving firmly, Ma Xiaoyan stayed right behind Xu Qianli, following like a shadow, ignoring everyone else’s gaze.
Once in the eting room, Zhang Hong sat at the head, starting the eting.
In the eting, Zhang Hong especially reminded Fu Guotai and Zhang Dongyang to treat the arriving cadres well and not cause any trouble.
Zhang Hong’s intention was to advise Fu Guotai and Zhang Dongyang not to trouble Xu Qianli, but to them, it was entirely different.
For leadership cadres, one must have sharp discernnt and understand the intentions from above.
Sotis, when told to do sothing, you can’t just do it straightforwardly. You must analyze the situation to grasp the true aning behind the words.
For example, once Zhang Dongyang’s mistress was unwell and suggested her sister accompany him for the night.
Zhang Dongyang righteous refused, claiming to love only her and have no interest in other won.
The mistress did well, arranging not just the sister but also her own sister for Zhang Dongyang.
That night, Zhang Dongyang was thoroughly satisfied, praised the mistress for her understanding, and later arranged a good position for her as a reward.
Fu Guotai and Zhang Dongyang speculated that Zhang Hong’s words were actually urging them to freely and severely deal with Xu Qianli.
Well, Xu Qianli, you’ve not only offended us, but you’ve also offended Zhang Hong. Just you wait!
Despite Fu Guotai and Zhang Dongyang’s hostile glances, Xu Qianli couldn’t care less.
Those two pieces of trash wanting to handle him? Dream on.
This ti in Cailin County, he wasn’t here to be bullied, nor had any interest in being bullied.
After Zhang Hong finished speaking, Fu Guotai and Zhang Dongyang each expressed their opinions in turn, then nad Xu Qianli to say a few words.
Among the new arriving cadres, he had the highest position, so it was appropriate for him to make a speech.
Xu Qianli, not holding back, took the microphone, cleared his throat, and began, "As for work matters, I just arrived in Cailin County and am not familiar with the local situation, so I won’t comnt on that. However, there is one matter I feel is necessary to bring up. This matter might concern quite a few officials’ careers here!"
