"Secretary Chen, Secretary Chen..."
Yan Jiang was still perceptive.
When he was about four or five ters away from Chen Fang, he started to jog.
Why would Yan Jiang, also a mber of the Provincial Committee, dean himself like this?
The reason was simple, he was Secretary Fu Zhiquan's man, and he ca here representing Fu Zhiquan.
Regarding Chen Fang's issue, Fu Zhiquan did not adhere to principles to investigate thoroughly, leading to such a significant wrongful accusation against a Provincial Committee mber; no matter what, it was hard to explain to those above.
If he could diffuse Chen Fang's resentnt, perhaps the situation could turn around for the better.
Therefore, he was not bowing to Chen Fang's status, but to Fu Zhiquan's future.
"And you are..."
Chen Fang had never t Yan Jiang.
Naturally, he didn't know his identity.
Yan Jiang didn't get angry, he imdiately introduced himself, "Yan Jiang! From the Provincial Committee Office."
"Oh, oh, oh, it's Secretary Yan."
Chen Fang suddenly understood.
He shook hands with Yan Jiang.
At this mont, Lin Long also arrived.
In the Provincial Committee's ranking, Lin Long was above Yan Jiang.
So Yan Jiang pointed at Lin Long and said, "Minister Lin from the Propaganda Departnt."
Before Chen Fang ca, he had already studied the profiles of the Provincial Committee leaders. As soon as he heard Minister Lin, he knew who he was looking at.
He politely said, "Comrade Lin Long, thank you for coming to pick up."
Lin Long was the only cadre in the Provincial Committee who supported that Chen Fang was wronged. Seeing Chen Fang safe, he smiled and said, "Secretary Chen is indeed still young. If it were , I probably wouldn't have endured it."
Chen Fang smiled and said, "Having experienced more, you naturally can withstand more. Besides, Minister Lin is quite young too."
Indeed.
Lin Long was only 41 years old.
Though over forty,
due to proper maintenance, at a glance, she looked like she was in her thirties.
Not only was her appearance impressive, but her figure was also quite comndable. Coupled with the mature charm she exuded, she was quite attractive.
She took a folder from her accompanying secretary and handed it to Chen Fang, saying, "Secretary Chen, the Supre Disciplinary Committee and the Supre Organization Departnt have jointly issued a docunt, requesting the restoration of your reputation and position. This afternoon, the specific clarification statent will be released. Please take a look and see if there's anything that needs anding."
Chen Fang quickly browsed through it.
Then he returned it to Lin Long.
He said, "I'm not very skilled with these matters, but I trust that Minister Lin can handle it well."
At this ti.
Yan Jiang ca over with a smile.
He said, "Secretary Chen, I truly apologize for your grievances. Secretary Fu wanted to co over, but he was delayed by a very important eting today, so he sent . He said he prepared a welco banquet for you this evening, and he asks that you be sure to attend..."
After listening, Chen Fang.
Slightly smiled and said, "Secretary Yan, to be honest, I really want to attend, but as you know, I suffered quite a few injuries before, and my body hasn't fully recovered. I'm just standing here by sheer will, so I'd like to first go to the hospital for a check-up. Could we postpone the welco banquet?"
This reason was quite reasonable.
Yan Jiang couldn't find fault with it.
He quickly said, "Sure, sure, health cos first, health cos first. Secretary Chen should go to the hospital first, you should go to the hospital first..."
"Then, to you leaders, my wife has co to pick up, I'll head off with them first..."
Chen Fang pointed at the motorcade in the distance as he spoke.
Yan Jiang nodded repeatedly, "Alright, Secretary Chen, then we will talk again when you officially take office."
Just like that,
after bidding farewell to a few people, Chen Fang got into Zhong Xiqian's business car.
Under the gaze of several leaders,
the motorcade slowly left.
Watching this group of cars disappear from view,
Yan Jiang could no longer hold back, muttering under his breath, "What's he so proud about? He's just on the sa level as , making it seem like he's my leader."
Upon hearing this, Lin Long didn't say anything, rely shook her head helplessly.
As she was about to turn around, Yan Jiang approached with a grin, saying, "Comrade Lin Long, it's already past noon, shall we have lunch together?"
As he spoke,
Yan Jiang's eyes glanced at Lin Long's ample chest.
How could Lin Long not know what kind of bad thoughts were brewing in his mind? She asked jokingly, "Does Secretary Yan want to have lunch? Or do you want to have ?"
Yan Jiang's face flushed red.
He didn't know how to respond.
In the mont of awkwardness,
Lin Long had already gotten into her car...
"Damn it, doesn't anyone take seriously? Just you wait, you'll regret it later!"
Yan Jiang cursed once more.
Only then did he turn and get in his car.
"Were you taken by that female cadre?"
In the business car,
Zhong Xiqian pouting, asked.
Chen Fang was startled.
He said aggrievedly, "What are you talking about? I just got out of the detention center, alright? Can't you show so concern for ?"
"Alright, I'll care about you then."
After saying this,
Zhong Xiqian took an envelope from the back seat, stuffed it into Chen Fang's arms, and said.
Chen Fang asked suspiciously, "What's this?"
"Resignation letter. I asked soone to write it for you. You just need to sign it."
Zhong Xiqian said with a straight face.
Chen Fang exclaid, "Resign? I never said I wanted to resign! Why should I resign?"
"Take a good look at yourself, look at what you've been reduced to? Every day, it's all about organizations. Where were they when you needed them? When they wanted you to go to Jiuhai Province, you went; when they asked you to go to Yong'an Province, you went as well; later they asked you to go to Nanliang Province, and without a word you went. I thought you would stabilize, and then they transfer you to Dongchuan Province? When you encountered danger and were in trouble, why didn't anyone from these organizations speak up for you? What's the point of staying in such an organization?"
The more Zhong Xiqian spoke, the more agitated she beca.
By the ti she reached these last few sentences, she was practically roaring.
Moreover,
Chen Fang noticed that as she spoke, her eyes were becoming teary.
Clearly, Zhong Xiqian was genuinely worried about him.
She couldn't bear the thought of her husband living in constant fear every day.
Seeing this,
Chen Fang pulled her into his arms.
He comforted her, "Qianqian, it's my fault, it's my fault for making you worry, it's all my fault, it's all my fault. If you're feeling really upset, just hit a few tis..."
Once embraced by Chen Fang,
Zhong Xiqian could no longer hold back.
She finally began to sob, her tears wetting Chen Fang's collar.
"Ah Fang, we already have plenty of money, more than we could spend in a lifeti. Please don't stay in politics anymore, alright? I'm really worried about you. I'm afraid that one day a call will co in, telling to claim your body. Have you ever thought about what I would do in that situation?"
Zhong Xiqian asked, slightly choked with emotion.
