Chapter 1245

Sure enough, hearing him say this, Xia Jian became particularly anxious and urged: "Oh, Comrade Xiao Zhao, what news, say it quickly, don't dawdle."

Zhao Desan took a puff of his cigarette and said slowly: "Brother Xia, I got news that the Personnel Department has issued an official notice today, asking the Construction Committee to report candidates for Deputy Section Chief. But your name and mine are not among the candidates!"

"What?" Xia Jian immediately widened his eyes, looking shocked, "Isn't the Deputy Section Chief promoted from the few of us in the Planning Section? Is it transferred from somewhere else?" In Xia Jian's view, if a Deputy Section Chief was to be promoted, it must be selected from the few people in the Planning Section. At least in terms of work, his work age was the longest, and he had just gone to the Party School for study last year. He should be the one who is duty-bound to be promoted. How could he not be included?

Zhao Desan smiled strangely, shook his head, and said calmly: "It's someone from inside our Planning Section, Zheng Ru."

"Zheng Ru? She has been working for less than a year, and her work ability is so poor. She has the ability to be Deputy Section Chief! This... this is too unreasonable!" Xia Jian was extremely dissatisfied with the decision to promote Zheng Ru to Deputy Section Chief.

Seeing that Xia Jian was indeed aroused with extreme dissatisfaction, Zhao Desan wanted this purpose. Anyway, he had no chance, and he wouldn't let Zheng Tulu succeed so peacefully. "Brother Xia, don't forget who Zheng Ru's father is. A father promoting his daughter up is reasonable. Although I also feel that Zheng Ru is far inferior to you, Brother Xia, in terms of work experience or handling ability, but what can be done? The affairs of the Construction Committee are not all decided by Director Zheng alone." Zhao Desan further provoked the relationship between Xia Jian and Old Zheng. Seeing the increasingly dissatisfied look on Xia Jian's face, Zhao Desan felt a little comforted in his heart. Next, he waited to watch Xia Jian perform.

"Too dark, it's really too dark. I didn't expect the one surnamed Zheng to be so dark!" Xia Jian had always been looking forward to being promoted to Deputy Section Chief, but now this dream was shattered without any warning. He felt too unbalanced in his heart, seemingly feeling worse than Zhao Desan. He took a fierce puff of his cigarette and left without saying a word.

Looking at Xia Jian's departing back, a cold smile appeared on Zhao Desan's face, thinking, you Old Zheng, you fix me, I won't let you have an easy time either!

Standing at the end of the corridor smoking, thinking of the fact that he and Section Chief Lan were secretly photographed again, Zhao Desan really blamed himself. He said Section Chief Lan fell in the same place, how could he, who had always been so vigilant, also be secretly calculated by Zheng Tulu! His brain was really full of shit. He punched his head several times, gritting his teeth in anger. It was really a case of swallowing bitterness.

Thinking that he had been wrongly accusing Section Chief Lan for a while recently, sometimes even insulting her with very vicious language, he felt very self-blaming in his heart. At this moment, Zhao Desan really didn't know how to describe his feelings. Frustration, loss, helplessness, self-blame, anger, mixed feelings in his heart, all kinds of tastes mixed together, simply couldn't be described in words. He couldn't lose Section Chief Lan, the only "confidante" he had in the unit, because he lost the opportunity for Deputy Section Chief. Having wronged and aggrieved her for so long, Zhao Desan felt it was necessary to find her after work and apologize to her properly. Leaning against the corridor wall smoking, he thought about the many troubles he had encountered over the years, and basically, he could solve them satisfactorily in the end. But this time, he really couldn't find any way. With Zheng Tulu holding photos of him that couldn't be seen, he could only admit defeat and count it as falling into his hands. He understood that if he weren't Zheng Ru's competitor, this old guy wouldn't have spent so much energy to deliberately deal with him. As long as there was any competition involving Zheng Ru, the old guy would definitely make him withdraw from the competition. He really didn't know if he would have a future staying in the Construction Committee like this. The curling smoke passed before his eyes one by one, and his deep eyes were filled with thoughts that no one could guess.

Leaning on the windowsill at the end of the corridor, Zhao Desan smoked four cigarettes in a row and looked at the watch on his wrist. There were only a few minutes left before work ended, so he prepared to go back to the office to pack up his things and go find Lan Mei to apologize after work. Just as he straightened his body, his phone rang in his pocket. It should be a text message. I don't know who sent it to him at this time.

With a not-so-curious attitude, Zhao Desan took out his phone and saw the name "Deputy Director He" on the screen. He felt a bit strange. Why is she sending a message at this time? He opened the message and read it in confusion. It turned out that He Liping asked him not to leave in a hurry after work, and to go to her office when people were almost gone. She had something to tell him.

Zhao Desan asked her what was the matter with no interest, and just said it on the phone, but He Liping didn't reply to the message anymore. The reason she didn't reply was to not give Zhao Desan space for doubt, so that he would go to her office to find her after work.

It turned out that after He Liping finished her business with Zheng Tulu and returned to the office, she had been wondering why Zhao Desan didn't take out the photos to confront Zheng Tulu if he really had Zheng Tulu's photos, at least he could tie. How could he be willing to withdraw from the competition? This question circled in her heart all afternoon. She really wanted to figure out whether Zhao Desan had Zheng Tulu's photos in his hands. If not, it meant there were no photos of her and Zheng Tulu, which meant that the stinky kid was bluffing her in the warehouse that noon, forcing her to submit. That was why she sent a message to Zhao Desan before work ended, asking him not to leave in a hurry after work.

Zhao Desan originally planned to find Lan Mei after work to apologize to her in person, but He Liping asked him to go upstairs to find her after work. After returning to the office, Zhao Desan thought about it and decided to find He Liping first to see what she had to say. While waiting for work to end, Zhao Desan glanced sideways at Xia Jian and saw him sitting in front of the computer with his brows tightly furrowed, his face full of extreme dissatisfaction. Looking at Zheng Ru on the other side, holding her phone with a smile, not knowing what she was doing. Damn, what's there to be proud of! Seeing her somewhat proud look, Zhao Desan felt extremely unbalanced. Seeing that his promotion to Deputy Section Chief was a done deal, if it weren't for Zheng Ru, how could there be such an unexpected result? It's really fucking Zheng Tulu's second uncle!

With an extremely unbalanced mood, he waited until work ended. Zhao Desan didn't leave in a hurry, but deliberately dawdled, pretending to organize the materials on the table, until others left work. Hearing that the office building was almost empty and gradually quieted down, Zhao Desan poked his head out to look at the corridor, found no one, pulled the door shut, and quietly walked upstairs.

Who knew that just as he reached the third floor, he heard Zheng Tulu's chuckling voice: "Liping, aren't you leaving work? Then I'll go first. I'm going to see Director Zhu, you go back early."

Zhao Desan immediately hid in the toilet in a panic, observing the movement in the corridor through the gap in the partition. After a while, he saw Zheng Tulu walking past with his big belly swaggering. After a few more minutes, Zhao Desan slipped out of the toilet, poked his head out to look at both ends of the corridor, quickened his pace to the door of He Liping's office, and before he could knock, he twisted the door open and hid inside.

Seeing Zhao Desan enter directly without even knocking, He Liping straightened her face, raised her willow-leaf brows, and her pair of provocative eyes widened, looking very angry, and said: "Comrade Xiao Zhao, you are really presumptuous, entering directly without even knocking!" ===== CHAPTER 1246 =====
