Chapter 75: Deputy Chief
Chapter 75: Deputy Chief
12 pm. It was the official lunchtime for the General AffairsOffice.
But no one from the office went out for lunch. Guo Panweiwas staring at the ceiling in a daze. Guo Shunjie was smiling confidently.Changjuan and Tan Limei were looking at each other. Zhuang Zhi was typing somereports, but he kept stealing glances at Guo Shunjie\'s direction. Even Old Yanstopped reading his newspaper and kept looking at the corridor. Based onprevious experiences, after the Committee Meeting, Xiao Lu, who was taking themeeting minutes, will pass by the hallway.
1 minute...
5 minutes...
There was still no one.
Tan Limei\'s stomach was growling, and she blushed. "ZhuangZhi, Bing Zhi, let\'s go for lunch?"
Dong Xuebing was very nervous and did not have the mood forlunch. "Let\'s wait a while longer."
Zhuang Zhi scratched his head. "Errrrrr... I will also waitfor a while."
Guo Shunjie sneered at them. He speaks to himself in hisheart. You all still don\'t know the situation? It\'s evident that other than me,who else will be the Deputy Chief of the General Affairs Office? Even GuoPanwei had given up the fight. But despite knowing the final result, GuoShunjie also did not go out for lunch. He wants to hear the news from Xiao Lustraight and look at the expressions of the others!
Shock? Jealous? Hatred?
Guo Shunjie was waiting for this beautiful moment. He hadnothing to do now and starts to think of ways to reorganize the General AffairsOffice. Yes. Dong Xuebing must be dealt with first. But Director Li Qing wasclose to him, and I cannot make it too visible. I must think of a way. Right. Iwill let Dong Xuebing take care of the office\'s cleanliness from now on. Hewill still have to change the water and carry things. That will be his jobtoday! Guo Panwei will be the second person. Hmph! Dare to vie with me for theposition of Deputy Chief? Xiao Tan have been hardworking. I will let her off.Changjuan knew the situation and had been respectful to me recently. I willalso let her off. As for Sun Zhuang and Old Yan... Depends on my mood!
At the other side of the office.
Changjuan dragged Tan Limei, Dong Xuebing, and Zhuangzhi toone corner.
Tan Limei was hugging her stomach and whispered: "How comethe meeting have not to end? If I wait any longer, I will faint from hunger."
"I think it should be ending soon." Changjuan laughed. "Itshould be another 10 minutes at most. Let\'s wait a while more and then go forlunch together."
Zhuang Zhi nervously asked. "Sister Chang, who do you thinkwill be our new Deputy Chief? Is it that Guo Shunjie? Does Guo Panwei have anychance?" Zhuang Zhi also dislikes these two people. But comparing both, hestill hopes for Guo Panwei to be promoted.
Changjuan rolled her eyes. "I have told you all previouslythat Guo Shunjie will definitely be our new Deputy Chief. Why are you stillasking?"
Zhuang Zhi smiled embarrassedly.
Dong Xuebing kept quiet and was playing with his fingers.
Changjuan could tell Dong Xuebing was very nervous, and shesighed. "Xiao Dong. You might not like what I said. But in government service,you must be humble and respect thee, leaders. Listen to me. If you need to bowdown to others, just bow down. If not, you will do harm to yourself.... Sighed...This is my advice to you. You decide for yourself."
Zhuang Zhi patted Dong Xuebing on his arm. "Bing Zhi..."
Dong Xuebing shook his head. Bow down? Bow down to GuoShunjie? Over my dead body!
Old Yan also walked over and said softly. "This office willnot have peace in the future."
"That\'s right." Tan Limei looked over at Guo Shunjie\'sdirection.
Ta... Ta.... Ta... It was the sounds of footsteps. Everyonelooks out at the corridor. It was Xiao Lu!
Dong Xuebing\'s heart was racing.
"Eh, Brother Lu, Brother Lu! Wait for a while." Changjuanwas slightly older than Xiao Lu. But this Xiao Lu was Branch Bureau Chief Yan\'sfavorite.
This was why she address him as Brother Lu. "What is it?"
Xiao Lu stopped outside the office and walked into theoffice, smiling with a stack of documents.
Guo Shunjie smiled and walk over to him.
Xiao Lu smiled back at him but did not speak to him. Helooked around the office looking for someone.
Guo Shunjie had thought that Xiao Lu would speak to him firstand then shake his hand to congratulate him for his promotion. But Xiao Lu\'sreaction... Guo Shunjie\'s smile froze! This... this... I am not the Deputy Chief?!How can this be?!
Changjuan, Tan Limei, and the rest were shocked. Xiao Lu\'sattitude was... Could it be Guo Panwei? Guo Panwei was promoted?!
Guo Panwei saw how Xiao Lu reacted to Guo Shunjie and wasoverjoyed. He immediately stood up and asked: "Is it me?!"
But Xiao Lu did not even look at him. He looked towardsChangjuan\'s direction and walk over. The whole General Affairs Office wereshocked. Xiao Lu smiled at Dong Xuebing warmly and nodded. "I saw you from farwhen Director Li\'s office caught fire. Xiao Dong... Oh, I should address you asChief Dong now.... Hahaha... Congratulations."
Dong Xuebing\'s nervousness was gone, and he replied with atrembling voice: "... Thank you!"
Chief?
What Chief?
Chief Dong!?
Everyone in the office was stunned.
Xiao Lu smiled and said: "Chief Dong, I still need todeliver these documents. Let\'s chat another day."
Guo Shunjie was panicking. "What do you mean?!"
Guo Panwei also asked in shocked: "What is happening?"
Xiao Lu shook his head and did not say anything. He quicklywalks out of the office.
After Xiao Lu left the office, the whole office was quiet.
Everyone looked at each other, and then all of them lookedat Dong Xuebing!
Tan Limei asked in shock. "Bing Zhi, don\'t tell me that youhave become our new Deputy Chief?"
Changjuan was confused: "How can this be? Is this real?"
"Bing Zhi!" Zhuang Zhi stared at Dong Xuebing and asked:"How come it\'s you?"
Dong Xuebing suppressed his excitement and showed a "calm"smile: "The official order is not out yet. I am also not sure."
Old Yan asked: "Is it really you?"
Guo Panwei had never expected Dong Xuebing to be promoted.He slumped back on his chair.
Guo Shunjie\'s face became pale, and he turned around and ranout to look for Political Commissar Zhou!
How come it\'s Dong Xuebing?
How was it possible?!
It should be everyone else except for him! This must be amistake!
When General Affairs Office was still in shocked, DongXuebing received a call from Xu Yan. Xu Yan only said two words: "It\'s done."Dong Xuebing sat down on his chair and closes his eyes. He was overjoyed!
It\'s real!
From now onwards, I am the leader of the General AffairsOffice!!!!
