Family connections: From special recruitment by the county committee to the pinnacle of power

Miao Xiaofang stared into Xu Hansheng's eyes, a hint of resentment on her face, and said, "You clearly think I'm a very promiscuous woman, don't you!"

Xu Hansheng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "That's not it. Actually, I wanted to save you."

Upon hearing this, Miao Xiaofang looked at Xu Hansheng with a blank expression. Save her?

What does that mean?

Seeing Miao Xiaofang's bewildered expression, Xu Hansheng sighed softly and said, "I don't know if you've ever done anything similar before, but have you thought about it?"

"Anyone you, or rather, anyone Ge has leverage over, will be fine as long as nothing happens, but once something does happen, do you think they'll let you off the hook?"

this……

Miao Xiaofang was taken aback when she heard this.

She had never done anything like that before. She was usually the bait set by Ge Yingchun, but when it came time to make the move, it was always another woman who took her place.

On the one hand, today's occasion is special; on the other hand, it's because Xu Hansheng is too young. If Ge Yingchun were to find a woman in her late twenties and force her upon him, he would likely refuse.

Therefore, it was only under duress that they managed to persuade Miao Xiaofang to change her mind.

On the one hand, Xu Hansheng is so young, he might not even have a girlfriend yet. If he gets hooked on Miao Xiaofang after a brief fling, she might even develop a touching love story with him.

Don't underestimate Xu Hansheng just because he doesn't hold a high position now. His advantage lies in his youth, and he might just be a rising star in the future!

Therefore, Miao Xiaofang reluctantly agreed.

But she never expected that, just when things were about to reach the final moment, Xu Hansheng would turn his back on her, which is why she suddenly turned against him.

However, Xu Hansheng's words also make some sense. If Xu Hansheng followed Ge Yingchun's advice and failed to control himself, and really had something happen between him and Miao Xiaofang, Ge Yingchun would seize the opportunity to blackmail him.

By then, Xu Hansheng will hate more than just Ge Yingchun.

In comparison, he must hate himself even more, right?

Seeing that Miao Xiaofang remained silent, Xu Hansheng continued, "Don't worry, I know exactly what Ge Yingchun wants. I will definitely help if I can, and I will never make things difficult for you."

"As for tonight, it would be better if we slept in separate beds so as not to disturb each other and avoid any misunderstandings. What do you think?"

Want to take Xu Hansheng's first blood?

No way!

A virgin's body is more precious than gold!

Especially since Xu Hansheng wanted to make a name for himself in his official career, he needed to keep himself clean and upright.

Even when looking for a woman, he has to find someone like Tang Bing, who has influence behind her and whose own conditions are the best of the best. As for Miao Xiaofang, she can only be considered the first test for Xu Hansheng after his rebirth.

Ge Yingchun wanted to use this to test the cadres, was she trying to have an eating contest?

Miao Xiaofang pouted, frowned, and looked around the room before finally speaking, "There's only one bed in this room, how are we going to sleep separately? Will you sleep on the floor or will I?"

Do you want Xu Hansheng to sleep on the floor?

Why should I?

He's not a protector of women, nor does he have the potential to be a simp.

After thinking for a moment, Xu Hansheng said calmly, "It's not appropriate for either of us to sleep on the floor. How about this, back to back? That shouldn't be a problem, right?"

After saying that, Xu Hansheng went straight to bed, pulled up the blanket, turned his back to Miao Xiaofang, and lay down on the bed.

Miao Xiaofang was stunned for more than ten seconds. Seeing that Xu Hansheng was really unmoved by her, she had no choice but to do as Xu Hansheng said, leaning against him and lying on the bed.

……

While Xu Hansheng was struggling with various trials, Lin Weidong was also going through an internal struggle.

Although the medical records were successfully issued, Lin Weidong was truly reluctant to part with them.

I finally made it to the position of the head of the county propaganda department, which is at least a deputy county level position.

Although he doesn't wield much real power, he is still considered one of the Standing Committee members.

If I step down to the second line, then I'll have nothing left at all!

Even if he were given a lateral transfer in terms of position and rank, it would still be a sinecure!

Seeing Lin Weidong sitting on the sofa with a grim expression, not having eaten a single bite of dinner, Lin Mingyuan lowered his head and approached Lin Weidong, saying, "Dad, it's all my fault..."

"I underestimated Mr. Xu; I thought too highly of him!"

"I really know I was wrong. I'll definitely listen to you from now on. Please eat your meal."

Since Lin Mingyuan could remember, this was the first time he had ever seen Lin Weidong sit on the sofa for hours without saying a word.

This shows just how serious the problem is!

If he had listened to Lin Weidong and insisted on leaving the research lab, or even resigned, the matter would never have escalated to this unmanageable state.

Although he was still unsure how Qi Hongchang would ultimately deal with him, judging from the fact that everyone in the department was openly distancing themselves from him, it was clear that not only he would be affected, but Lin Weidong would also be impacted.

Unfortunately, at this point, it's too late for anything he says.

A terrible mistake has been made!

"What's the use of knowing you're wrong?"

Lin Weidong sighed softly and said, "Do you think this is home? That if you admit your mistake, your mother and I will just let it go?"

"Now that things have come to this, you'd better take care of yourself. There's probably nothing I can do to help you anymore!"

At this point, Lin Weidong waved his hand impatiently at Lin Mingyuan.

He gestured for Lin Ming to stay away from him, as he was annoyed.

Seeing this, Qian Shujie walked to the sofa and said to Lin Weidong, "Old Lin, what's done is done. There's no use worrying about it now. Let's eat first!"

Lin Weidong took a deep breath, stood up, and walked back to the bedroom.

Seeing this, Qian Shujie could only shake her head helplessly and said to Lin Mingyuan, "You should go back to your room and rest. Think carefully about what you did wrong recently."

"Once this is over, apologize to your dad properly, and it will all be over."

Lin Mingyuan nodded, moved his feet, returned to his room, and lay down on the bed, but he couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

In his mind, he kept recalling all the things Xu Hansheng had done during this period.

Now, looking back from an observer's perspective, Lin Mingyuan couldn't help but slap himself twice.

It wasn't that he was too naive; rather, the people around him had always pampered him too much. Therefore, when Xu Hansheng greeted him with a smile right after their argument, Lin Mingyuan had no sense of caution whatsoever.

That's why he followed the path Xu Hansheng had drawn for him and ran all the way to the end!

Although he harbored resentment, he couldn't help but admire Xu Hansheng's patience.

It wasn't until late at night, when Lin Mingyuan was so tired that he could barely keep his eyes open, that he finally fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Lin Weidong left early without even having breakfast.

Arriving at Qi Hongchang's office, Lin Weidong pushed the door open, only to find it locked. He then stood respectfully to the side, waiting for Qi Hongchang.

It wasn't until 8:30 a.m. that Qi Hongchang and Zhao Haifeng arrived at the office door one after the other.

"Minister Lin, it's so early, is there something you need?"

Qi Hongchang calmly observed Lin Weidong and asked with a smile.

Lin Weidong hurriedly greeted Qi Hongchang with a beaming smile, saying, "Secretary Qi, good morning. I've come specifically to report to you on my work. You see..."

As he spoke, Lin Weidong glanced at Zhao Haifeng.

Qi Hongchang thought for a moment and said to Zhao Haifeng, "You go back first, I'll call you later."

Zhao Haifeng responded and then turned and walked towards his own office.

Qi Hongchang opened the office door and said to Lin Weidong, "Minister Lin, what is it that you need to talk to me inside?"
