Chapter 1125: Who is the Biggest Winner!

Tang Ye dialed Cheng Lin's phone number.

"Sister Lin, my father-in-law's personnel appointment has come down. Thank you for your help."

Cheng Lin feigned ignorance, "Secretary Du has excellent work ability and personal charisma. His promotion to Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee was a natural outcome; it has nothing to do with me at all."

Tang Ye laughed, "Sister, you are too modest. Of course, you haven't helped me just once; I have always kept it silently in my heart."

Cheng Lin was silent for a few seconds, then said softly, "Don't be so formal with me. In my heart, you are like a younger brother. Wherever I can help you, I will certainly do my utmost."

Tang Ye said, "If there is anywhere you need me in the future, just give the order."

Cheng Lin smiled, "When I need your help, I certainly won't be formal with you."

After hanging up on Tang Ye, a smile appeared at the corners of Cheng Lin's mouth.

There was a kind of tacit understanding with Tang Ye; she could accurately grasp his thoughts, and Tang Ye also knew her inner world.

In fact, this was a very subtle and appropriate relationship.

If the current balance were broken, no one would know what would happen next.

Cheng Lin then dialed Du Chengfeng's phone number.

"Secretary Du, this is Cheng Lin. I just saw the personnel appointment, congratulations."

Du Chengfeng knew that Cheng Lin had helped him in secret.

"Minister Cheng, thank you for your congratulations. The work of the Municipal Organization Department is very tedious; if you encounter any problems, you can communicate with me at any time."

Although Du Chengfeng had been promoted to Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, he had worked in the Municipal Organization Department for more than two years, and he would now hand over the resources accumulated during that time to Cheng Lin, which could be considered a return of the favor.

"Mm, if there are any problems, I will report to you in a timely manner." Cheng Lin breathed a sigh of relief. With Zhou Chengwu leaving this time, the biggest winner appeared to be Li Chaoyang, but in reality, it was Du Chengfeng!

Although Du Chengfeng was number three, he held the resources of the Municipal Organization Department in his hands, as well as the important projects left behind by Zhou Chengwu over the past four years, so he possessed the strength to play the game against Li Chaoyang.

As for the Mayor transferred from the Provincial Tourism Bureau, he was more like a trial card before retirement, just a passerby.

……

Before going home, He Haiyang smoked two cigarettes downstairs, and only after adjusting his mood did he return home.

Seeing He Haiyang looking dejected, Shen Minghan asked with concern, "Husband, what's wrong?"

He Haiyang sighed helplessly, "The Hanzhou leadership team has been finalized. Du Chengfeng has been appointed as Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee!"

A look of shock appeared in Shen Minghan's eyes, "A person as despicable as Du Chengfeng is actually being promoted to Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee? Isn't this just nonsense?"

A look of indignation appeared at the corners of He Haiyang's mouth, "Du Chengfeng is too good at maneuvering. Even though the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection received reports, he used his connections to forcibly suppress them."

Shen Minghan simply could not accept this reality, "Mingcheng was ruined by Du Chengfeng. If he hadn't gotten into trouble back then, he would definitely be a Deputy Department Level Official by now. Du Chengfeng is too petty. For such a person to become a leader is simply too dark."

He Haiyang took a deep breath, trying to soothe his wife's emotions, "Don't worry, the higher he climbs now, the harder he will fall in the end. He is just hiding it well for now. Don't let me catch him in a compromising position, otherwise, I will definitely make him finish."

Shen Minghan agreed with her husband's point of view, "Du Chengfeng came up from the grassroots; he is definitely not clean, he just hides it quite deeply."

He Haiyang nodded slightly, "I will keep an eye on Du Chengfeng's situation at all times. Don't let me find an opportunity! Hmph!"

Seeing that He Haiyang's mood had improved quite a bit, Shen Minghan smiled, "I made chicken soup today, I'll ladle you a bowl."

He Haiyang laughed, "Alright! Go ahead!"

Watching Shen Minghan's back, He Haiyang's eyes were filled with happiness.

He Haiyang took the soup bowl from Shen Minghan's hands, took a sip, and exclaimed, "So savory!"

"I simmered it for several hours!" Shen Minghan watched her husband drink the soup, suddenly feeling a bit lost.

Seeing this scene, He Haiyang was momentarily surprised, "What's wrong with you?"

Shen Minghan wiped away her tears, "I suddenly remembered my little brother. My mom spoiled him especially when he was little. Every time we had chicken soup, she would give him the chicken legs, and he would secretly give the chicken leg to me."

He Haiyang knew that Shen Minghan and Shen Mingcheng had a very close relationship, "Minghan, I've had people put in a word. Your brother has been behaving well inside and has already received a sentence reduction. Time passes quickly; it won't be long before he gets out."

Shen Minghan choked up, "Husband, I know my state of mind was not good these past few years, living with anger and hatred, which in turn affected you."

He Haiyang laughed, "Why would you think that? If I hadn't met you, I would just be an ordinary cadre; it would have been impossible for me to be promoted! Everything I have now is because you helped me."

Shen Minghan wiped away her tears, "Husband, why don't we change our way of thinking! From now on, let's not live in hatred. You work hard and strive to advance further. Focus our attention on managing our own family; don't let external elements destroy our family atmosphere."

He Haiyang thought to himself that Shen Minghan's idea was good, but walking away from hatred was not that easy!

He put down the soup bowl, hugged Shen Minghan tightly, and kissed her lightly on the forehead.

"Just for what you said just now, I have to work hard."

Shen Minghan actually felt the pressure He Haiyang had been under recently.

Originally, she felt that as a Deputy Minister of the Provincial Organization Department, it would be easy for He Haiyang to suppress the progress of Du Chengfeng and his son-in-law.

As a result, she felt He Haiyang's helplessness.

Even because of this hostile relationship, it had already begun to affect He Haiyang's own career.

Shen Minghan had lost her father, who was her backer, and her brother, who had potential; if she were to lose He Haiyang, her main pillar, then she would be completely doomed.

But Shen Minghan did not know that He Haiyang could only grit his teeth and move forward now.

Sometimes, even knowing that there is a mountain of blades and a sea of fire ahead, one cannot turn back!

……

Xiao Jingyu was locked in a hotel room.

Although he told the Discipline Inspection Commission that he would confess truthfully.

However, when it came down to paper, it was always some trivial, inconsequential matters.

The Team Leader of the working group knew that Xiao Jingyu was playing dumb, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Some things must be ground out slowly in order to investigate the full truth.

"Comrade Jingyu, your reflection is still not profound enough!"

Xiao Jingyu gave a bitter smile, "I suffered abuse while abroad these past few years, and my memory is not as good as it used to be. Please give me some time."

The Team Leader's gaze turned cold, "By the way, the Hanzhou leadership team has been adjusted. The Municipal Party Secretary is Li Chaoyang, the Mayor is Zhang Kangshan, and the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee is Du Chengfeng..."

Hearing that Li Chaoyang was serving as Municipal Party Secretary, Xiao Jingyu slapped the table in anger, "Li Chaoyang, why is it Li Chaoyang? Can that half-baked, tongue-tied fool even be a Municipal Party Secretary?"

The staff member beside the Team Leader shouted angrily,

"Xiao Jingyu, please calm down. You are no longer an official of Hanzhou.

What right do you have to criticize how the organization makes its arrangements?"
