Names: Uncle Zhao Mengsheng, Father-in-law Pei Yihong

"Governor Qi, please give me a chance to reform myself!"

I was once Secretary Gao Yuliang's secretary, and his favorite secretary.

I will definitely obey, and I, Chen Qingquan, will definitely repent and reform.

I, Chen Qingquan, will definitely turn over a new leaf, work diligently and conscientiously, and never cross the red line again.

Governor Qi, from now on I will follow your lead without question!

Chen Qingquan had no choice but to back down.

Unexpectedly, the first person to be operated on was Qi Tongwei, Gao Yuliang's good student.

Qi Tongwei looked Chen Qingquan up and down without saying a word.

Chen Qingquan kept trying to appease him and say nice things.

Seeing that it was about time, Qi Tongwei raised his hand and said, "Dean Chen, for the sake of Secretary Gao Yuliang, I can let you off this time."

Chen Qingquan chuckled, "Alright, Governor Qi, I told you, you're the best in Handong."

Chen Qingquan sincerely admitted his mistakes and expressed remorse, his tone extremely earnest.

But when it reached Qi Tongwei's ears, it had absolutely no credibility.

Qi Tongwei understood the nature of this type of person all too well.

The country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change.

Do you really think you can get Chen Qingquan to change his lecherous and greedy ways with just a few verbal apologies?

That's pure self-deception.

It's easier to repent verbally than to drink water; the greed in one's bones is already deeply rooted.

Qi Tongwei didn't speak, but took out his phone and typed a short message before sending it.

The message was brief and to the point: Xiao Cai, let her in.

Ten seconds later.

The door was gently pushed open.

Cai Xiaofei stepped aside to let him in, then closed the door and stood guard outside without saying a word.

A figure rushed in with great fanfare.

He Yuru's face was full of hostility, her brows and eyes blazing with barely suppressed anger as she stared at Chen Qingquan kneeling on the ground, her eyes spitting fire.

She raised her hand, gathered her strength, and swiftly slapped him across the face.

Snapped!

Crisp and pleasant to the ear.

As the saying goes, you shouldn't hit someone in the face.

He Yuru sneered, her tone sharp and cutting.

"Chen Qingquan, others might not hit you in the face, but today I'm going to hit your face!"

Caught off guard, Chen Qingquan's head was knocked to the side by the blow, and before he could recover, another slap landed on his face.

Snapped!

The two slaps were quite forceful.

The blow instantly made Chen Qingquan's cheeks red and swollen.

A burning pain shot straight to the top of my head.

He Yuru's chest heaved violently as she pointed at the kneeling man, "Chen Qingquan!"

You stay at home every day pretending to be honest and acting aggrieved, complaining to me about the high pressure and physical and mental exhaustion of working at the court!

I feel sorry for you, so I'm making you stewed black-boned chicken and pork ribs at home, trying different ways to nourish your body!

I'm completely open and honest with you.

The results of it?

You secretly went to the Shanshui Group to live a life of debauchery and secretly learned your damn foreign language!

Who do you think you've done right?!

"How can you face your elderly parents?"

Chen Qingquan hung his head, "Wife, I was wrong."

If my parents found out, they'd probably be furious.

"Now you know you were wrong?" He Yuru's voice suddenly rose. "If it weren't for Governor Qi, I would have been kept in the dark by you my whole life! You were out there having a good time, while I stayed home managing the household frugally. You're really something!"

Her eyes were sharp, and her harsh words came out without any mercy.

"I'm telling you this now, Chen Qingquan, if you ever dare to philander again, I'll castrate you and make sure you can never be a man again!"

His words were firm and resounding, brimming with murderous intent.

Chen Qingquan was stiff all over, kneeling on the ground, utterly humiliated, and dared not even breathe.

Outside, he is the vice president of the municipal intermediate court, wielding judicial power and holding the life and death of others in his hands.

At this moment, in this place, I'm completely under my wife's thumb.

With Qi Tongwei around, no one dared to talk back.

They were also worried that things would escalate and their parents would find out.

Qi Tongwei remained seated, his expression calm and unwavering, observing the entire process with detached indifference.

He understood perfectly that for officials, once their personal morality is compromised and their desires are overwhelmed, even the most prestigious official position and the most respectable status are meaningless. Sooner or later, they will fall victim to their own greed.

Just then, He Yuru turned to face Qi Tongwei and bowed deeply. "Governor Qi, my husband Chen is indeed guilty of a heinous crime and made a mistake first."

But he has had a tough time all these years, so I implore you to be lenient and give him a chance to reform.

Qi Tongwei remained expressionless and solemnly said, "I can give you the opportunity, but only once."

Chen Qingquan, who was kneeling on the ground, was overjoyed, as if he had grasped the last straw.

He had just stood up when he knelt down again.

"Thank you, Governor Qi! I, Chen Qingquan, swear that from now on I will turn over a new leaf, adhere to the bottom line, and never make a mistake again!"

Be sure to work diligently and honestly!

"Chen Qingquan, stop talking nonsense and let me see your actions." Qi Tongwei glanced at Chen Qingquan and then looked at He Yuru. "Comrade He Yuru, I have spoken with District Chief Sun Liancheng and Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee Cheng Du about your work. We plan to transfer you to the Guangming District Administration for Industry and Commerce."

He Yuru's expression changed slightly, and she shook her head. "Governor Qi, I've worked at the Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision for over ten years. I'm familiar with the work and the environment is comfortable. Could you let me stay in my original unit?"

Qi Tongwei smiled faintly, "The position of director of the Guangming District Administration for Industry and Commerce is vacant, and the pilot project urgently needs manpower."

If you're not interested, I'll have Sun Liancheng talk to someone else.

That's progress! It's a pleasant surprise.

He Yuru immediately changed her tune, "Thank you for your guidance, Governor Qi! I will accept the transfer!"

Qi Tongwei nodded slightly. "I'm transferring you over there not just to change your position, but to assign you tasks."

Guangming District plans to pilot a one-stop business registration system.

Once you are in your post, you will be fully responsible for leading and overseeing the project.

He Yuru felt that her luck had turned around. "Don't worry, Governor Qi, I will do my best and never let you down."

From that moment on, Chen Qingquan and his wife were completely devoted to Qi Tongwei.

In officialdom, winning people's hearts is paramount, followed by subtle persuasion, and progress must be made step by step.

Another interrogation room.

Compared to Chen Qingquan's disheveled state next door, Qin Ben was still relatively presentable at this moment.

His shirt was wrinkled and disheveled, his hair was messy, and his face no longer showed the shrewd and worldly demeanor he usually displayed at the municipal government.

As the deputy secretary-general of the municipal government, Qin Ben had been mingling in the core circle of the Jingzhou municipal government for many years, and was most adept at playing both sides and taking sides opportunistically.

At this moment, he hung his head, not daring to straighten his back.

Qin Ben knew exactly what was going on.

The fact that Shanshui Group was caught red-handed learning foreign languages ​​is a serious scandal. If this information is handed over to the Discipline Inspection Commission, forget about his promotion; he might not even be able to keep his position as deputy secretary-general.

His career may have come to an end.

He glanced furtively at Qi Tongwei, who was sitting opposite him, his Adam's apple bobbing as he lowered his stance and begged for mercy.

"Governor Qi, I know I was wrong. I was momentarily blinded by greed and made a grave mistake. I beg you to be lenient and give me a chance to reform."

Qi Tongwei sat quietly, one hand resting on the edge of the table, without saying a word, just staring at him indifferently.

There was no anger or mockery in his eyes, only calm.

But the calmer it was, the more chilling the sense of oppression became.

Qin Ben felt increasingly flustered. "Governor Qi, I was just confused this time. You'll see how I behave in the future."

"If there's anything you can do to help me, I, Qin Ben, will be there whenever you call."
