Sha Ruijin's heart was pounding wildly.

The words were stuck in my throat; I didn't know how to express them.

The atmosphere was so heavy it felt like the air itself was freezing.

After a long while, Sha Ruijin swallowed hard.

His words were as rough as steel pipes after being rubbed together: "Father-in-law, do you have any news to tell me?"

And it's bad news!

Sha Ruijin attained enlightenment with great difficulty. After he uttered those words, he could feel his breathing become rapid and his heart begin to pound.

That was a tension that came from the depths of my heart.

A suspicion he absolutely did not want to arise in his mind, and then it became uncontrollable.

"Sigh, you guessed it. With your sharp intelligence, you should have guessed it too!" Old Huang sighed, looking somewhat dejected.

Sha Ruijin didn't speak; he gripped the phone tightly, his hands trembling.

Old Huang probably guessed what state Sha Ruijin was in at this moment, and sighed softly, saying with some comfort, "Don't be discouraged. There's nothing we can do. Nobody expected that we would get stuck at this point in the end."

It can only be said that fate is unpredictable and life is full of twists and turns!

Old Huang sighed.

He said nothing, but it made Sha Ruijin's heart tighten, confirming his suspicions.

A hoarse, raspy voice came from Sha Ruijin's mouth: "So Zhong Huaimin's appointment was rejected, right, father-in-law?"

Sha Ruijin revealed the source of the fear that had been weighing on his mind.

Zhong Huaimin's failure to step forward not only means that Sha Ruijin has lost an organization department minister.

There are even deeper, more intriguing aspects.

What is the attitude of those above towards Sha Ruijin, and what is their attitude towards Zhong Zhengguo? Do they still believe in them, and do they want to continue to let them reorganize the situation in Handong?

As Sha Ruijin pondered this thought a little deeper, he felt an overwhelming sense of panic.

Sha Ruijin even began to doubt his own abilities, wondering if he was too incompetent and that was why his superiors were dissatisfied with him.

But Sha Ruijin couldn't bring himself to say these words, both out of pride and because he didn't dare to ask.

"You're still so clever, but unfortunately, this time your cleverness has led you to discover something very bad!" Old Huang sighed deeply and said solemnly, "You guessed right, Zhong Huaimin's appointment to go to Handong Province has been rejected."

It's clear that the higher-ups' attitude towards the Zhong family might be due to you. In any case, you need to quickly produce some decent results, whether it's anti-corruption or development!

To regain the organization's trust in your abilities, to convince them that entrusting you with tasks will yield good returns, rather than making the already chaotic situation worse.

Moreover, Xu Ming, the person whom Grandpa Zhong recommended in the end, is said to have not yet been appointed. The problem lies with the head of the Organization Department, who blocked everything and rejected all those who did not comply with regulations.

Xu Ming became a clown; before that, he thought he was a sure thing.

As a result, he was surpassed by Chen Daolai.

Moreover, I've heard some rumors that the person who will soon be appointed as the head of the Organization Department in Handong Province is the son-in-law of the head of the Organization Department.

You should know this person; he has intricate connections with the bank.

Think about it yourself, what exactly happened in Handong Province recently that led to these changes?

"It's also possible that it has nothing to do with your Handong Province; they just want to help their ally, the energy sector," Old Master Huang guessed.

Sha Ruijin suddenly understood.

In Handong Province, someone offended someone at the bank, so the bank started to retaliate.

After all, bank employees have always enjoyed a special status; not high, but certainly not low either.

Offending this kind of person will definitely not end well.

As Sha Ruijin was thinking, something suddenly came to mind.

Li Dakang's wife, Ouyang Jing, seems to work at the bank.

According to Ji Changming's report to him some time ago, Ouyang Jing also turned herself in to the Anti-Corruption Bureau.

Sha Ruijin was initially pleased about this, but now, thinking about it, he felt a chill run down his spine.

Could it be that this incident angered the bank, leading to their intervention and the current situation?

No way, Ouyang Jing is just a vice president, and a vice president at the city level at that.

"It's very likely!" Sha Ruijin shook his head, then nodded firmly.

Ouyang Jing's position isn't particularly high, but she has a husband who is a member of the provincial party committee standing committee, which highlights her unique influence.

In addition, banks and energy already have a natural alliance.

The banks are still at a disadvantage.

It makes perfect sense that the banking tycoons would step in.

The younger Sha Ruijin is, the clearer his thoughts are.

Those guys at the bank are trying to use this incident to get the Organization Department of Handong Province to follow Governor Zhao's lead.

Sha Ruijin was the provincial party secretary, wielding immense power over personnel appointments, so the organization department naturally wanted to align itself with him.

But if things were really as he suspected, then the Organization Department wouldn't naturally align itself with him; in fact, it might even sometimes stand up and contradict him. It would never be as obedient and compliant as Wu Chunlin.

"Dad, maybe I know what's going on!" Although Sha Ruijin was very reluctant to believe this guess, once the guess came to mind, it couldn't be pulled out of his mind.

"What is it? Do you know something else?"

Grandpa Zhong's last favor was wasted in this way, serving no purpose whatsoever!

"What exactly happened?" Old Huang perked up after hearing Sha Ruijin's words.

"That's roughly how it is..." Sha Ruijin recounted his guess.

After listening, Old Huang slammed his fist on the table and exclaimed, "It's Hou Liangping again! What kind of wicked creature has the Zhong family raised!"

Why do you keep ruining our plans?!

After listening, Old Huang slammed his fist on the table.

It's still about the Li Dakang incident caused by Hou Liangping.

Ouyang Jing became the catalyst that fueled the current state of the incident.

"Dad, don't be angry. Getting angry will make you sick and others will laugh at you!" Sha Ruijin quickly comforted him.

"This is just my guess; I don't know if it's true!"

"No, this is not a guess. Your logical deductions are all reasonable and well-founded, and can withstand scrutiny. This may be the truth." Old Huang's tone weakened several degrees, and his vicissitudes were beyond words.

It was as if he had aged more than ten years in an instant.

"Handong Province, do you still have confidence, Little Gold?"

"If it doesn't work out, come back. I'll ask my old comrade to let you go somewhere else!" Old Huang asked earnestly, starting to plan a new path for Sha Ruijin. Forget about advancement, think about how to survive.

The trajectory of Handong Province has deviated too much.

It's too dangerous for Sha Ruijin inside; he could be dismissed at any moment.
