Afternoon.
Cafeteria.
Dong Xuebing and Luo Haiting were having lunch when he saw Liu Hanqing entering the cafeteria. He smiled and waved to him. “Old Liu! There’s a seat here.”
Liu Hanqing was surprised, and he walked over to Dong Xuebing.
Luo Haiting was stunned but did not say anything.
The Commission for Discipline Inspection staff in the cafeteria were puzzled by Dong Xuebing’s action. Why is he inviting Liu Hanqing to have lunch together? They were in a conflict this morning, and someone said the Inspection Bureau Chief scolded Director Dong. However, Liu Hanqing was not reprimanded. It was hard to hide such matters in the government sector. Director Dong should be furious with Liu Hanqing now. But why is he so calm and friendly towards Liu Hanqing? What is he up to?
Dong Xuebing smiled. “Old Liu, have you reported to your motor insurance?”
Liu Hanqing replied. “Yes. They are processing it now.”
“Ok. I will send you the repair fees when the report is out.”
Liu Hanqing sneered in his heart and did not say anything. He continued to eat his lunch as if nothing had happened.
Suddenly, Dong Xuebing’s phone rang, and he answered immediately. “Hello? Oh, ICBC Discipline Inspection? Hi, how can I help you? Oh… oh… ok…. I will send someone over. Please wait for my call.” He ended the call and looked at Luo Haiting. “Have you finished eating? Director Luo, I need you to settle this matter.”
Luo Haiting straightens her back. “Yes. I am done.”
Dong Xuebing replied. “Something happened at the City ICBC branch. Their internal Discipline Inspection department should handle this, but some District and County Leaders might be involved. They are asking us to help with their investigation. Go and take a look.”
Luo Haiting replied immediately. “Ok. I will go now.”
ICNC bank? Liu Hanqing looked at Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing looked at Liu Hanqing and calmly said. “Old Liu…. I know you had been handling all the work in Inspection First Office before I came, but you should stay away from this case.”
Liu Hanqing paused for a second. “Stay away?”
Dong Xuebing nodded. “Your father Liu Dong was suspected to have receive bribes.”
“What?!” Liu Hanqing stood up in disbelief.
Dong Xuebing waved his hand to ask him to sit. “Director Liu, you have been working in the Commission for Discipline Inspection for some time. I hope you can understand the situation. You should not get emotional. We will never accuse anyone. If your father is innocent, he will be fine. But if he….”
Luo Haiting finally understood what happened and was shocked.
Dong Xuebing said these calmly, but this was a piece of shocking news to the others.
Liu Hanqing’s father was under investigation by the City’s ICBC branch and Inspection First Office!
People with below-average IQs cannot enter the government service, and everyone in the Commission for Discipline Inspection is not an idiot. They knew this must be Dong Xuebing’s revenge. How can Dong Xuebing and Liu Hanqing clash in the morning, and his father was under investigation this afternoon. Worse, the bank asked Inspection First Office’s Dong Xuebing to help with the investigation. How can this be a coincidence? He had just arrived for two days and did not seem to have any backings. How did he get ICBC to help him? ICBC is a major state-owned enterprise, and Fen Zhou City ICBC branch President Qian Lihua is as powerful as any top leader in the City Government. The bank is an independent enterprise, and she can ignore the City’s Deputy Mayor. But why is the bank helping Director Dong?
The cafeteria went silent.
Liu Hanqing’s eyes turned bloodshot from his anger.
Luo Haiting laughed in her heart and called the female staff member Zhu Zhu to follow her to the City ICBC headquarters.
Dong Xuebing patted Liu Hanqing’s back and left.
Qian Lihua had acted fast, and the bank’s Inspection Discipline department immediately started its investigation. They quickly found evidence from an anonymous report sent to them a year ago. Liu Dong had received a 100,000 RMB bribe. She was right about anyone in the Credit department having problems if they are investigated. The head of the department had to meet many company bosses and government agencies, and it’s normal for him to receive gifts.
Afternoon.
“Have you all heard it? Liu Hanqing’s father was arrested.”
“Yes. I heard he was arrested for corruption.”
“The earthquake hero, Director Dong, is swift and ruthless for his age.”
Liu Hanqing had been working in the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and his job was to investigate and punish corrupted government staff. But now, his father, Liu Dong, was arrested by ICBC Discipline Inspection for bribery. His case was almost confirmed, and Liu Hanqing was disgraced. This was a massive blow to his reputation.
Before the end of the day, everyone heard of a piece of news.
Liu Hanqing’s transfer order was not issued, and it was canceled.
Everyone was shocked but not surprised. Liu Hanqing’s father was arrested, and who knows if Liu Hanqing was involved. The higher-ups will not promote him now.
Liu Hanqing almost fainted when he heard it.
His transfer and promotion were canceled.
He kicked his chair over in a fit of anger.
Settling the grudge in one day. Dong Xuebing’s swift actions shocked everyone.
Dong Xuebing had crashed Liu Hanqing’s car and arrested his father.
Liu Hanqing was put in place within a day by Dong Xuebing.
Inspection First Office’s Zhu Zhu, Fei Fan, and the other staff were speechless.
Who said Director Dong was righteous and kind? Who said he was generous and forgiving?
Banging Liu Hanqing’s car and going after his father…. This was too….
Dong Xuebing took care of the son in the morning and arrested the father in the afternoon without caring about the Commission for Discipline Inspection leaders’ attitudes.
This was the first time everyone met a leader like Dong Xuebing.
