Chapter 1338

~5 min read 821 words

Facing her husband's incompetence, Zheng Jie, who had just entered the state, opened her eyes and cursed angrily: "Coward, you have no ability at all!" She wrapped herself in the quilt and turned her back to sleep. No matter how Zhao Da explained or teased her, Zheng Jie ignored him. Zhao Da lay on the bed, feeling cold in his heart, and thought for a whole night. He recalled every bit of the years he and Zheng Jie had been married in his mind and found the cause of the illness. He felt that perhaps it was really the emotional problem between the two that led to his current inability to be firm. So he hardened his heart and prepared to go to the unit the next day to find Lan Mei, begging her to see if she could transfer Zheng Jie to the Construction Committee, even if it wasn't in the Planning Section, it didn't matter, as long as Zheng Jie could work with him, the two could go to work and get off work together, and they would have more time to see each other, which might cultivate their husband-and-wife relationship and perhaps allow him to regain his masculine prowess.

Although Lan Mei was usually very strict with the people in the department and always showed a cold face, once someone sought her help, she would always help with all her might. But she had already lowered her face to beg Zheng Tulu once for Zhao Da's matter, knowing that the beast was purely making things difficult for her. So, facing Zhao Da's plea, Lan Mei said apologetically: "Xiao Zhao, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's really that I can't help you. I think the Director probably doesn't want to transfer anyone over. Besides, you also know that because of Zheng Ru's matter these past two days, he definitely won't be transferring anyone while in the limelight. I really can't help you with this matter."

Zhao Da had originally only come to find Lan Mei with the idea of trying. Seeing her say this, he smiled with some disappointment and said: "Section Chief Lan, it's fine, I was just asking. If it can't be transferred, then forget it. Then I won't disturb your work, Section Chief Lan." Saying this, Zhao Da walked out of Lan Mei's office in disappointment.

At the end, Lan Mei thought of the news report she had just seen online. The webpage was still open, and she read it again with rapt attention. She knew that this matter was spreading rapidly in an uncontrollable situation. The province, under the pressure of public opinion, would definitely investigate. In this way, Zheng Tulu would definitely have a good fruit to eat. Thinking of this result, Lan Mei's heart, like Zhao Desan's, had a feeling of great gratification.

After Zhao Desan returned to the office, he told Xia Jian about the news. Xia Jian, upon hearing the news, couldn't be happier, always thinking that as long as this matter was investigated by the higher-ups, he would be the beneficiary. Seeing Xia Jian's face full of wicked smiles, a wicked smile also flashed at the corners of Zhao Desan's mouth. Just as he guessed, after Han Rui finished reading the report in the newspaper, she quickly pulled out the Global Times separately, took the newspaper, and went to the third floor to find Zheng Tulu.

When she knocked on the door, Zheng Tulu was answering a call from Director Zhu. The one surnamed Zhu also realized the seriousness of this matter spreading online and would affect himself, so he quickly called Zheng Tulu to discuss countermeasures. On the phone, the one surnamed Zhu told Zheng Tulu that if the province investigated this matter, Zheng Ru's deputy section chief position definitely wouldn't be kept, and perhaps even Zheng Tulu would be implicated, telling him to be mentally prepared. Zheng Tulu, after finishing the call, leaned on his chair with an extremely heavy expression and didn't speak for a long time, as if he didn't even see Han Rui standing in front of his desk.

"Director Zheng, take a look at this." Han Rui saw Zheng Tulu's expression was unusually heavy and knew he was upset and confused right now, so even her voice became very small. While saying this, she placed the newspaper on his desk.

Zheng Tulu scanned the newspaper in a state of confusion. Suddenly, he saw the eye-catching headline "The Mystery of the 25-Year-Old Female Deputy Section Chief's Promotion." He immediately straightened his body and picked up the newspaper to read it. Han Rui knew that after this old guy finished reading this report, his mood would definitely be more complicated. Once his mood became complicated, his temper would easily become irritable. In order not to be an innocent cannon fodder, Han Rui quietly exited the office while he was reading the newspaper.
