Chapter 1149

From Division Chief Lan's words, Xia Jian mistakenly thought that she wanted to take this opportunity to examine him, and perhaps it really had something to do with the upcoming Deputy Division Chief position. Thinking this way, Xia Jian felt even more triumphant and nodded: "I will definitely perform well and will definitely not live up to your love, Division Chief Lan."

Lan Mei smiled faintly, waved her hand, and said: "Alright, you go. I'm leaving tomorrow morning. Giving you the list now is to let you familiarize yourself with the work. After you go over, don't tell others first, understand?" Lan Mei's original intention was to fear that Xia Jian would show off to others as soon as he returned to the office, which would definitely cause Zhao Desan's dissatisfaction. If he came to ask her and got entangled in this matter, it would be very difficult to handle anything. But she knew that saying this would definitely make Xia Jian have another understanding. After saying this, she deliberately looked at him with a mysterious expression.

Sure enough, Xia Jian responded to her with a knowing smile, nodded, and said: "Division Chief Lan, don't worry, I definitely won't talk nonsense and won't bring you trouble."

"Just know it," Lan Mei said, and then waved her hand, "Alright, you go busy with your work first."

Xia Jian walked out of Lan Mei's office with an extremely triumphant mood. After returning to the office and sitting down, he seemed to have become a different person. His face was full of joy, and from time to time he secretly looked at Zhao Desan with a look of looking down on people. It seemed that he felt that Lan Mei handing this temporary acting Division Chief task to him indicated that he was about to be promoted to Deputy Division Chief, so he began to think about how to clean up Zhao Desan.

The next morning, as soon as Zhao Desan arrived at the office and sat down, he saw Xia Jian holding a piece of paper and looking at something with a triumphant face. Just as Xia Jian was about to announce to Zhao Desan and the others that he had been entrusted with the task of acting Division Chief, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and Lan Mei appeared at the door. Xia Jian's open mouth then closed.

"You guys be quiet, I have something to say," Lan Mei said to the noisy office. Several people immediately became silent and looked at her seriously.

Lan Mei looked around and said: "I'm going on a business trip recently. During the time I'm away, Xia Jian will be fully responsible for the work of the Planning Division. You three must seriously cooperate with his work, otherwise, I won't spare you when I come back."

Hearing this matter announced by Lan Mei, Zhao Desan's heart suddenly cooled by half. Although he didn't know what Division Chief Lan was going on a business trip for, no matter what, if she wasn't there, it should be handed over to him to be responsible, right? Why should it be handed over to Xia Jian? He and Xia Jian have been having conflicts recently. Isn't this fueling the arrogance of that hybrid? Lan Mei frowned and looked at Lan Mei with a look of seeking knowledge.

Observing that Zhao Desan's expression had changed greatly, Lan Mei immediately moved her gaze away from him. Although her heart was thumping, she continued: "Recently, these ten days or so, Xia Jian will temporarily replace me and be fully responsible for the work of the Planning Division. He is exercising the power I usually have. I hope you guys will fully cooperate. Otherwise, I won't spare you when I come back!" After saying this, Lan Mei didn't give Zhao Desan a chance to pursue, and walked straight downstairs. Zheng the Bald Donkey was already standing by the car waiting for her.

After Lan Mei left, Xia Jian coughed twice and raised his voice: "Everyone heard it, right? Division Chief Lan is going on a business trip. For these ten days or so, I will temporarily replace her and exercise the duties of the Division Chief. I hope everyone can cooperate well with my work and fully do a good job in the Planning Division." Saying this, he looked at Zhao Desan intentionally and continued: "Whoever has any opinions about me, just put them in your stomach for the time being and don't disturb the work, or if you feel that I am not suitable to replace Division Chief Lan, then go directly to the higher-level leaders to reflect." Xia Jian was afraid that he couldn't suppress Zhao Desan, so he brought out the word leader.

Seeing this hybrid just temporarily replacing Division Chief Lan, he was so triumphant and showing off in front of him. Zhao Desan really couldn't stand it, and he didn't understand why Lan Mei would hand this task to him. Is his work ability not as strong as this hybrid? The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. He "hey"ed, threw the information in his hand on the table, and got up to chase Lan Mei to ask for the reason.

Seeing Zhao Desan walking out in a fit of anger, Xia Jian deliberately raised his voice and shouted: "Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, where are you going during work hours?"

Zhao Desan turned a deaf ear to Xia Jian's shouting, walked out of the office, and chased downstairs. When he reached the lobby on the first floor, he saw from afar that Division Chief Lan had already got into the car and drove slowly out of the Construction Committee following Zheng the Bald Donkey's car.

"Hey!" Zhao Desan smashed his fist on the stair railing in anger, shook his head with a bitter face, and bit the bullet and went upstairs.

As soon as he returned to the office, Xia Jian was arranging work for Zheng Ru and Zhao Da. Seeing him come in, he asked with a questioning tone: "Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, where are you running during work hours? I just arranged work for Little Zheng and Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, and there are some work left for you to do." Saying this, he walked up and took the list handed to him by Lan Mei and handed the remaining few most difficult work to him, saying seriously: "You handle these few work quickly. I know you have been working for a short time, so I specially give you a few simpler work. Do it quickly."

Zhao Desan endured the anger in his heart, raised his voice, and said with a frivolous tone: "Division Chief Xia, I know, thank you for your care!"

"Work hard." Xia Jian patted his shoulder lightly, a sinister smile flashed on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at him sinisterly.

Zhao Desan didn't pay attention to him anymore. Being shown off by Xia Jian with his fox tail up in front of him, how could he have the heart to work? After sitting down, he picked up his phone and sent such a message to Division Chief Lan: Division Chief Lan, I don't know what you are thinking, why do you want Xia Jian to replace you? Anyone in the Planning Division can replace you, but Xia Jian can't. Don't you know what kind of person he is? Don't you know that I just had a fight with him? You are deliberately making me look ugly and making me lose face!

On the way out of Xijing City, Lan Mei received this message full of resentment from Desan. After looking at it, she held the steering wheel with one hand, put on the headset with the other, and dialed him.

"Buzz buzz..."

Zhao Desan just finished sending the message and put down the phone, and the phone vibrated. Looking sideways, it was Division Chief Lan who called. He picked up the phone and walked out of the office without changing his expression. Only when he reached the end of the corridor did he answer the phone and asked unpleasantly: "Anything?" Because he was angry, even the subject "Division Chief Lan" was omitted.

"Heh, Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, are you resentful about my arrangement? Don't understand?" Lan Mei asked with a light laugh on the phone.

"Yes, I don't understand at all! I don't know why you would let him preside over the work. Even if you don't recognize my work ability, it's fine if you don't let me be responsible for the time being! But is Xia Jian's work ability very outstanding?" Zhao Desan's tone carried great dissatisfaction and personal emotions, and then he lit a cigarette and took a fierce puff angrily.

After Lan Mei finished listening to his words, her tone gradually became heavy and said: "Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, have you ever thought about how others in the unit will look at us if we don't deliberately keep a distance now? When the rumors spread, even if I am a woman and don't want face, what about you? Haven't you always wanted to go up? If your personal influence is not good, do you think your official career will be smooth? Do you know why I announced this today when I was going on a business trip? It's because I was afraid that you would be dissatisfied and make a fuss. I could have not gone on a business trip to another place, I was for you..." Speaking of this, Lan Mei realized that if she continued to say it, she would reveal the flaws and be detected by Zhao Desan that she was wrong, so she softened her tone and changed her words: "Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, you have your own ideals, don't be petty because of these things. I let Xia Jian temporarily replace me to preside over the work of the Planning Division, which is also carefully considered. First, everyone's attention will not always be on you and me. Second, it is considering that you and Xia Jian have had conflicts. Doesn't he always want to be a leader? I will satisfy his wish, just let him show off in front of you, so what? Can he eat you?" ===== CHAPTER 1150 =====
