A man in Handong: living off Zhong Xiaoai

Chapter 615 Congratulations, host, you have completed all the tasks!

Sha Ruijin gasped upon hearing Qi Tongwei's words.

What does this mean?! Li Dakang, who was also a mayor, was removed from his post?!

"Secretary, please calm down! I really didn't mean that. As the mayor of Luzhou City, I can feel my own growth and progress every day. I am so happy to be able to contribute to the people of Luzhou City! I work with great enthusiasm every day, how could I possibly be tired!"

"Secretary, as you know, I've always been loyal to you. We're all your old subordinates, members of the Qi family clique. Li Dakang isn't one of us. He only cares about climbing the ranks and doesn't care about our feelings or interests at all. Secretary, this is truly different! I, Sha Ruijin, have always stood by your side. You have to believe me!"

Qi Tongwei, holding the phone, looked out the window.

"Ruijin, stop bringing up the Qi family clique. You should know by now how many people from the so-called Qi family clique are in my position. Let me tell you, they're countless! In this circle, we value ability and performance, not who's whose. The capable rise, the mediocre fall—that's the ironclad rule! No matter who you are or what your background is, it's useless!"

Ruijin, I think you have some ability, otherwise you wouldn't have held the position of mayor of Luzhou City for so long. However, don't become complacent because of this, and don't think that having some so-called Qi family background means you can rest easy. Remember, this position was given to you by the people, and it's the result of the trust that the Xia Kingdom and the organization have in you. Cherish it and do your job well!

So, Ruijin, you should focus on doing a good job as mayor of Luzhou City. Prove your ability and value through your actions. I believe that as long as you are willing to work hard and dedicate yourself, you will definitely be able to make greater contributions in this position. What do you say?

Upon hearing Qi Tongwei's words, Sha Ruijin sobered up completely, his entire body covered in cold sweat.

"Secretary, you're absolutely right! I really wish I could stay in this position of mayor of Luzhou City for the rest of my life and make a lifetime of contributions to the people here! I was just confused for a moment, had a little to drink, and said some things I shouldn't have said, please don't take offense!"

"Secretary, you know I've always been loyal to you and have never considered betraying you or the Qi family clique. Getting into a ministry or becoming a vice-provincial level official—these are not things I, Sha Ruijin, should be concerned with! As long as I can do something practical for the people of Lüzhou City in this position, I'll be content!"

Upon hearing Sha Ruijin's words, Qi Tongwei hung up the phone. At that moment, a figure dressed in white skipped and hopped into Qi Tongwei's office.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Qi Tongwei gave a helpless shrug.

"Xiao Hui'er, why are you always bouncing around like this? I'm at work, not at home. Can you please pay a little attention to your image and stop being so unruly?"

After hearing Qi Tongwei's words, Zhao Xiaohui stuck out her tongue at him.

"Hehe, Secretary Qi, don't forget, I'm your second secretary! And your personal secretary too! In our family, there are very strict rules. Your second secretary is under the leadership of the first secretary. As for me, I'm under the leadership of Sister Xiao Ai! So, I can jump around and skip as I please, but there are rules to follow!"

At this point, Zhao Xiaohui called out to Qi Tongwei from the outer room.

"Really, Sister Ai? I should be fine jumping around a bit, right?"

After hearing Zhao Xiaohui's words, Zhong Xiaoai walked in with a smile.

"Of course, no problem, Xiao Hui'er. You were personally appointed as the second secretary by Tong Wei, and the rule that I'm under his jurisdiction was also set by Tong Wei himself. So, what's wrong with you jumping around in this office a few times? As long as it doesn't affect your work, we can understand."

"Isn't that right, honey? When you made this rule, you probably didn't expect things to turn out like this, did you? But seeing Xiaohui so energetic makes me very happy too."

Qi Tongwei gasped. He was already terrified by having only Zhong Xiaoai as his secretary, but now she had brought her best friend. His good days were truly over!

Qi Tongwei looked at Zhao Xiaohui helplessly...

“Little Hui’er, do you remember Qin Ming, who worked as my secretary for over a year when your sister Xiao Ai was pregnant? He was truly capable, and he did his job exceptionally well. Now, he’s about to become the Party Secretary of Jingzhou City, which is a position on the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee—what an honor! And look at him, he’s already been promoted to a ministerial level; his future is limitless!”

After hearing Qi Tongwei's words, Zhao Xiaohui tilted her head slightly.

"Hehe, Secretary Qi, look at us now, Sister Xiao Ai is your chief secretary, a deputy ministerial-level secretary, and I am your second secretary, a bureau-level secretary! In two more years, when Sister Xiao Ai is promoted to a ministerial-level secretary, won't I naturally become a deputy ministerial-level secretary? So, I'm not in a hurry at all! There will be plenty of opportunities to enter the ministry, I can just pick one!"

After hearing Zhao Xiaohui's words, Qi Tongwei didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

At that moment, the system's voice echoed in Qi Tongwei's mind.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have completed all the tasks and changed Qi Tongwei's fate. Do you wish to return to your own time, or spend the rest of your life here?]

After hearing the system's words, Qi Tongwei turned his gaze to Zhong Xiaoai.

Zhong Xiaoai glanced at Qi Tongwei, smiled, and said. 0.4

"Don't worry, honey! You don't need to worry about the kids getting out of school. Xiaoqin and Mengyan have already gone to pick them up. They're both very attentive and will take good care of the child. Besides, Xiaojieba has prepared some delicious food for our baby at home! The child especially loves her cooking and always eats with great relish. Just focus on your work, I'll take care of things at home."

As she spoke, Zhong Xiaoai came up to Qi Tongwei, took his hands, and smiled gently.

At that moment, sunlight streamed through the window and shone directly onto Zhong Xiaoai's face. Qi Tongwei looked at Zhong Xiaoai in front of him and thought she was an angel.

Then, Qi Tongwei felt a warmth in his heart.

"System! I've decided to stay here and live the rest of my life as Qi Tongwei!"
