Rebirth of the King of Waves

Chapter 55 Unhappy New Year

"What are you doing up there? Do you know how to drive?"

Beep beep beep! ! !

At 7:30 a.m., a seemingly endless traffic jam occurred at the intersection of Renmin Road and Jiefang Road in downtown Xzhou City. A three-car pileup at the intersection had nearly paralyzed traffic.

Countless people were honking their horns anxiously in their cars.

Huang Qingqing couldn't help frowning and scolding in a restrained and low voice.

Last night, she chatted with her cousin Ning Qian until late at night, and spent a long time comforting her younger brother who had lost the opportunity to be transferred to a lower-level position.

As a result, I didn't get enough sleep.

I'm really angry at the moment.

She kept looking at her watch and waited for more than ten minutes. Seeing that the car in front showed no sign of moving, she immediately picked up her cell phone and called the deputy director of the street party and government office.

The street was not far from here. In just a moment, the deputy director came with a temporary worker, and who knows where he got his magical powers, but he found us in the vast sea of ​​cars in an instant.

Huang Qingqing hurriedly opened the door and came out, telling the temporary worker to drive the car to the street parking lot after a while.

I hurried to the office with the deputy director of the office.

Huang Qingqing complained as she walked, "I just got back from the Chinese New Year and things are not going well. I don't even have time to eat breakfast."

"It's okay, it's okay," Deputy Director X said quickly. "Deputy Director X will be here at 9:30, so there's still time. I've already told the cafeteria, and they haven't turned off the stove yet. Just enough time to grab a couple of bites."

Huang Qingqing felt a little better after hearing this, and a slight smile appeared on her face. "Thank you very much, otherwise I would have to go out hungry. My husband claims he is an officer and refuses to cook in the morning. My Doubao also sleeps in and goes hungry with him."

Deputy Director X laughed and said, "Section Chief Qi, it's rare for the army to have a few days off, so it's normal for him to be lazy. But haven't they started work yet?"

"He used up all his saved annual leave at once and went straight back to work next Monday."

"Oh~~"

The two people walked and talked.

After a while, he arrived at the office and completed the clocking in at 7:58.

huh~~~
She breathed a sigh of relief and finally regained the composure that was expected of a director.

"Director Huang, I'll go upstairs first."

Deputy Director X of the office, who ran back with Huang Qingqing, greeted Huang Qingqing.

"Yeah." Huang Qingqing nodded, turned around and walked straight towards the cafeteria.

At this time, the office was already quiet. It was working hours and there was no sound.

Huang Qingqing thought to herself that she should finish her meal quickly and then go upstairs to work, so as not to be caught by the Discipline Inspection Commission on the first day after the New Year. However, as soon as she reached the canteen door, she ran into Director X, the second-in-command of the street.

Director X immediately asked, "Qingqing, why are you here just now?"

"Stop talking!" Huang Qingqing complained directly, trying to shift the blame. "There was a traffic accident on the road outside, and it was stuck for most of the day. Luckily, Director X asked someone to come over and help me move my car. I ran all the way here and almost got late!"

Director X had nothing to say. He looked at his watch. It was 7:59, which was theoretically not yet time for work.

You can't ask Huang Qingqing to stop eating.

"You...you better be careful. The inspection is the strictest this morning!" Director X reminded based on his usual experience.

Huang Qingqing waved her hands and said impatiently, "I can't control it. I just had some vegetable salad last night and I'm starving!"

After that, he ran into the cafeteria and shouted to the cook, "Auntie, cook me a bowl of rice and noodles, quickly!"

After shouting, he simply stood in front of the big iron bucket where noodles were cooked and waited eagerly.

At this time, Director X, who had walked out of the cafeteria, suddenly came back and walked back behind Huang Qingqing. He lowered his voice and asked, "Qingqing~"

"Huh! You scared me!" Huang Qingqing shuddered.

Director X couldn't help but pout, his face darkening as he said, "You're so startled! How disrespectful! I'm talking to you about serious matters!" "Even when we're talking about serious matters, you can't scare people behind their backs..."

"I just want to ask you, your Director Ning..."

"Oh, stop talking!" Huang Qingqing shook her head. "I was on the phone with him until after one last night. I didn't sleep well myself."

"Then he really won't come down to take up the position?" Director X asked in a low voice.

Huang Qingqing frowned and said, "People have called their workplace to complain. What a bad influence. It's all my cousin's fault. Sigh... I don't want to talk about him anymore. This time, my uncle's whole family has been badly screwed by him."

Director X couldn't help but ask curiously, "Has it gotten this far? What on earth is your...elder cousin doing out there?"

"I owed debts, and I was arguing with people online, and... anyway, it caused quite a big problem in public opinion." Huang Qingqing seemed unable to explain herself for a moment.

Director X was also confused and muttered softly, "That's not a big deal. If it really was illegal, just call the police. Why did you bring up your uncle's family?"

"I don't know about that." Huang Qingqing took the hot bowl of noodles, walked to the buffet counter, added a bunch of side dishes such as eggs and bacon, then found a seat nearby and sat down, lowered her head and started eating.

In fact, she knew what happened in Ning Guorong's family.

But some things, if they are made public, will involve more people.

Ning Qian had told him last night that someone was using Ning Bishu's incident to hinder their family. The calls to his workplace were indeed caused by Ning Bishu, but the caller might not be so righteous.

Ning Guorong's factory gate was also splashed with feces. It's obvious that competitors were behind this. And the fact that those competitors had the audacity to attack Director Ning's father must have been backed by a powerful force.

In short, they're willing to resort to any underhanded tactics to grab market share. Especially in the current dire economic climate, it's often necessary to destroy competitors to ensure their own survival.

But the problem is-

If this kind of thing were to be talked about openly, people like Ning Qian, who are respected figures, would lose face.

So there were some things that Ning Qian could only complain to Huang Qingqing, who was also a member of the system.

Because Huang Qingqing knows how serious this is, she will definitely not talk about it everywhere.

Seeing that Huang Qingqing was like this, Director X naturally didn't want to ask any more questions.

He vaguely understood what was going on.

It was simply a case of two well-connected local businessmen at odds, and one of them had used Ning Bishu's case to smear Ning Guorong. Actually, there was no such thing, but the damage it caused to Ning Guorong's family was immense.

In order to calm the situation, Ning Guorong is even planning to fight back by sacrificing his nephew.

The general planning steps are:

First, they let Ning Bishu sit in jail for half a month unjustly, and then they made a big fuss about the matter and turned around to vindicate their nephew. In the process, they found out who threw the manure and made the phone call, and followed the clues all the way to their competitors and the backers behind them.

In this way, the competitors will inevitably be at a disadvantage.

The backers behind the scenes will also be busy distancing themselves from the matter.

In the subsequent struggle between the two sides, the balance of victory will tilt towards Ning Guorong.

Of course, Director X certainly didn't know that there were so many twists and turns behind this matter.

He watched Huang Qingqing slurp her food, stood quietly for a moment, and then slowly said, "We'll leave at 8:30 and arrive before 9 o'clock. Do you want to come with me or drive yourself?"

Huang Qingqing replied without even looking up: "I'll drive there myself."

Director X continued, "XX Building, Jiangbin Road, XX Foreign Trade Forwarding Company. You know the way, right?"

"Of course I know him." Huang Qingqing frowned.

Isn’t that where Ning Bishu used to work?

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, the first day of work in the new year, I keep encountering topics related to my unlucky cousin.

I really can't be happy at all.
