He rubbed his eyes carefully and took another look at the contents of the paper.
Then he looked up to see Zhao Shoujiang's smug face.
Luo Lan shouted angrily.
She didn't even care that she wasn't wearing any clothes.
With a flying kick, she lashed out at Zhao Shoujiang's face.
Chen Fang covered his eyes in shock.
When he spread his fingers apart and peeked through them, there were two crimson trails flowing from Zhao's nose.
"You whore, you dare to hit ..."
Zhao Shoujiang continued to berate her without knowing the full story.
Luo Lan grabbed his hair and said, "Deputy Magistrate Zhao, from now on, you'd better not call a whore again. Otherwise, do you believe I'll spill everything you've done?"
"Have you lost your mind? You really don't want anything anymore, right?"
Zhao Shoujiang asked.
With a slap,
Luo Lan slapped the paper onto his face.
She sneered and said, "I'm sorry, Deputy Magistrate Zhao, but from now on, you can't control ."
Zhao Shoujiang picked up the paper and squinted at it, imdiately freezing in shock.
It was a transfer order.
A transfer order issued by the Organization Departnt.
Vice Director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau Luo Lan was transferred to be Director of the Party Conduct and Political Ethos Supervision Office at the Changming County Disciplinary Committee.
If Zhao Shoujiang had arranged her promotions before,
it ant that Luo Lan had now escaped his clutches.
"Impossible, how could this be? What connections do you have at the Disciplinary Committee?"
Although it was black on white with the Organization Departnt's stamp, Zhao Shoujiang still couldn't believe it. After all, no one knew Luo Lan better than him—she didn't have such connections.
What was more important was that he had received no news about this.
"Deputy Magistrate Zhao, Changming County isn't a place where you can cover the sky with one hand. Don't forget, there are other leaders above you,"
Chen Fang said leisurely.
"Was it you who did this?"
Zhao Shoujiang seed to understand sothing.
Chen Fang gave a noncommittal response.
He said, "Deputy Magistrate Zhao, I'll take the person with . If you want to make trouble, I'll be waiting for you at the Safety Supervision Bureau."
After dropping this line,
Chen Fang wrapped his arm around Luo Lan's shoulder and said, "Let's go."
Luo Lan turned to glance at Zhao Shoujiang, who sat on the ground, then left without a second thought.
Watching the two figures disappear from sight,
Zhao Shoujiang got up from the ground.
He wasn't willing to let this go.
Of course, he wasn't.
He was the Deputy County Magistrate.
He had countless ways to make life difficult for Chen Fang.
But he refrained because he knew that no revenge could be more severe than angering Zhang Cheng.
Standing by the window of the room,
he wiped the blood off his nose.
He took out his phone and dialed a number.
After the call connected,
before the other person could speak,
he said, "Make Zhang Cheng trouble Chen Fang tomorrow. By noon, I'll allow you to touch my daughter."
"Is that a promise?"
"A promise. Once Chen Fang is in custody, I'll notify you, and then she's all yours."
"Hahaha, Deputy Magistrate Zhao is truly straightforward. Rest assured, I guarantee that Chen Fang will take a fall tomorrow; the kind that leaves him bleeding all over. Also, I promise that at tomorrow's committee eting, you'll be the next Executive Deputy County Magistrate. Deputy Magistrate Zhao, it's a pleasure doing business with you."
"Pleasure doing business," Zhao Shoujiang said.
Without a doubt,
the person on the other end was i Shikang.
After leaving the Hilton Hotel,
Chen Fang took Luo Lan back to his place.
Song Lanre always waited for Chen Fang to co ho before sleeping; the sudden sight of him bringing a nearly naked woman ho startled her.
"Lanre, go find so dicine,"
Chen Fang said.
Lanre noticed the wounds on Luo Lan's body and frantically rummaged around to find a mix of various dicines.
Watching as Chen Fang carefully applied alcohol to her wounds,
Luo Lan's eyes grew moist.
"Chen Fang, thank you."
"Sister, what are you talking about? Since you trust and seek help from , I couldn't possibly pretend I didn't see."
"But this way, you've completely offended Zhao Shoujiang. He's the type to hold grudges and will definitely make a move against you."
Luo Lan said worriedly.
Chen Fang cracked a smile and said, "Even if today's incident hadn't happened, he would still have gone after , and most likely in the very near future."
"How do you know?"
Luo Lan asked in surprise.
Chen Fang chuckled and said, "We both know about Zhao Shoujiang's personality. Tonight, we humiliated and even hit him. According to his character, would he let us go just like that? Therefore, he must be holding back a big move, waiting to deal with ."
"What should we do then? Is there anything I can do for you?"
Luo Lan asked anxiously.
Chen Fang smiled and said, "The first thing you need to do now is to heal your wounds and recover your strength as soon as possible. Second, get along well at the Disciplinary Committee; there will be plenty of opportunities coming up."
Chen Fang's words.
Made Luo Lan feel a warmth she hadn't felt in a long ti.
For so many years, she had been living under Zhao Shoujiang's shadow, enduring endless pain every day.
The arrival of Chen Fang had been her salvation.
"Chen Fang, my body is all bruised. If you don't mind, once I'm healed... you... I can take care of you," Luo Lan offered, her words laced with modesty.
Although she spoke tentatively,
Chen Fang understood what she ant.
He smiled and said, "Sister, don't think too much for now. Let's talk about it once you've found the hope in life again."
Hope in life?
For Luo Lan, that had been a long-forgotten term.
But in the face of Chen Fang's earnest expression,
A warm current surged in her heart.
The next morning at half-past eight.
Chen Fang got up and was still washing up.
When his phone rang out of the blue.
Upon checking the number, it was Tian Xingpo calling.
"Director Tian, what's up?"
Chen Fang asked.
"Chen Bureau, where are you?"
Tian Xingpo's voice sounded sowhat anxious.
"I'm at ho. What's the matter?"
Chen Fang inquired, puzzled.
Tian Xingpo's voice suddenly rose a few notches, exclaiming, "Chen Bureau, how can you still be in the mood to stay at ho? You've caused a disaster; hurry up and get to the office."
"Caused a disaster?"
Chen Fang was about to ask when,
The call got cut off.
He didn't even have ti for breakfast.
Hastily getting ready, Chen Fang rode his motorcycle straight to the Bureau of Work Safety.
Still a distance from the gate, he saw the entrance of the Bureau crowded with people.
Upon approaching, he was taken aback.
Two bulldozers were parked across the entryway of the Bureau, effectively blocking the gate completely.
"Chen Bureau is here."
Soone shouted.
All eyes turned to Chen Fang.
What's going on?
Chen Fang was also clueless.
Making his way through the crowd, he spotted He Duo and i Shikang whispering to each other.
Upon Chen Fang's arrival,
i Shikang snorted coldly, pointing at the two bulldozers at the gate and said, "Chen Fang, look at the great thing you've done."
The usually amiable He Duo today also had a gloomy face,
And said to Chen Fang, "Deputy Director Chen, I don't care how you do it, but get these vehicles moved right now. No one can get to work; does this make any sense?"
Just when Chen Fang was as perplexed as a monk who's lost his scripture,
Wang Qin approached from behind and whispered, "Deputy Director Chen, could you co over here, please?"
Chen Fang, not understanding,
Followed Wang Qin to the side.
