Chapter 2123: Pang Xingjie's Wife and Child

While the few were talking, several cars sped over and stopped at the gate of the County Party Committee reception house. Su Xinghui got out of the car first, walked to Yuan Yifu, and asked, "Secretary, I heard something happened again?"

Yuan Yifu looked at Su Xinghui suspiciously. He always felt that this matter was related to Su Xinghui. However, from Su Xinghui's face, he only saw calmness and couldn't see any signs that he had a guilty conscience.

Yuan Yifu said, "County Magistrate, you came just in time. Director Pang was just taken away by a few people, and I don't know where they took him."

Su Xinghui asked, "Do you know who took him away? How were they taken away?"

Yuan Yifu said, "I don't know. The people who took him away were wearing plain clothes. When this Comrade Qian saw it, he had already been stuffed into a jeep, and the jeep drove away quickly. He didn't see the license plate either."

Su Xinghui also frowned and said, "That's strange. Who took him away? Secretary Gao, it wasn't people from the County Public Security Bureau?"

Gao Tongguang shook his head hurriedly and said, "No, I just called and asked."

Su Xinghui said, "Then have you arranged to look for him?"

Gao Tongguang said, "It has been arranged. The police force of the whole county has been mobilized. As long as the people who took Director Pang away are still in Chongjin County, they will definitely be found."

While speaking, the other county leaders who had just received the news also got out of their cars and gathered around, listening to the situation Gao Tongguang introduced, their faces full of worry.

Pang Xingjie went missing in Chongjin County. If the Provincial Party Committee wanted to hold someone accountable, none of the county leaders of Chongjin County would be able to escape the relationship.

Su Xinghui said, "Everyone, don't just stand here. Director Lao, you haven't had dinner yet, right? Eat first. Standing here is useless. As long as there is news, they will report to us immediately."

Only then did Yuan Yifu wake up from a dream. Lao Xinhua and the others hadn't had dinner yet. If they were starved, wouldn't he have offended another deputy director of the Provincial Party Committee General Office?

Yuan Yifu hurriedly said to Wu Zhengjing, "Old Wu, you hurry up and arrange for everyone to eat."

Everyone at the scene hadn't eaten. They were all people who had just finished work and rushed over as soon as they got the news. Therefore, everyone had a meal together. Because of Pang Xingjie's matter, they didn't drink alcohol and just had a simple working meal, just filling their stomachs.

While they were eating, Jiang Fangpin also had dinner at home. He ate this meal very firmly.

However, during the meal, his home phone rang several times. They were all provincial leaders who had received the news, coming to inquire about the situation. The secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Secretary went missing and was taken away by people—this was simply shocking.

Especially since Pang Xingjie had already been arrested by the public security department of Chongjin County two days ago, and this matter was still under investigation, and the investigation team hadn't even left yet, such a thing happened again. This was simply too bad.

The provincial leaders who called were all very concerned and inquired about the situation. Jiang Fangpin didn't say much, only saying that the situation was unclear. These provincial leaders all said that the nature of this incident was too bad, and if it wasn't handled seriously, the image of the Provincial Party Committee would cease to exist.

Ke Zhifang also called, his tone also very concerned. Jiang Fangpin talked to him while sneering in his heart, "You pretend quite well."

The news of Pang Xingjie's disappearance spread like a hurricane throughout the political circles of Jiangyou Province. Those who heard this news were dumbfounded and then realized that the officialdom of Jiangyou would probably have many things from now on.

After Jiang Fangpin finished eating at home, his home became lively. Some subordinates came to his home to report on work and incidentally cared about Pang Xingjie's matter.

Jiang Fangpin had no intention of listening to the subordinates' reports at this time. He anxiously waited for news of Pang Xingjie.

Just as a subordinate was reporting work to him, only the sound of crying came from outside. Jiang Fangpin's heart was on fire. Just as he was about to flare up, his wife came in and said, "Old Jiang, Xingjie's wife and child are here."

Jiang Fangpin's anger was extinguished at once. He got up and left the study, coming to the living room, only to see a young woman in her thirties with a boy in his teens standing in the living room. The young woman was crying sadly there.

Seeing Jiang Fangpin come out, the young woman cried and said, "Uncle Jiang, what happened to Xingjie? If something happened to him, what should we mother and child do?"

The subordinate who was reporting work to Jiang Fangpin saw this situation and hurriedly took his leave tactfully.

Pang Xingjie's wife was a deputy division chief of the Provincial Youth League Committee, named Zhai Liping, a few years younger than Pang Xingjie. She was very beautiful, and her height was half a head taller than Pang Xingjie.

When Zhai Liping married Pang Xingjie, Pang Xingjie was only a clerk in the Provincial Party Committee General Office. Many people didn't look favorably on this marriage, feeling that they were very mismatched and would definitely not be happy.

But who knew that Pang Xingjie would mix so well in officialdom? A few years ago, after serving as Jiang Fangpin's secretary, he was promoted to deputy director of the Provincial Party Committee General Office. This made everyone's glasses fall off, and they admired Zhai Liping's vision.

When Zhai Liping married Pang Xingjie more than ten years ago, she was a staff member of the Provincial Youth League Committee. At that time, Jiang Fangpin was the secretary of the Provincial Youth League Committee. Therefore, Jiang Fangpin could be considered Zhai Liping's old leader, and the two families had always moved around a lot.

Jiang Fangpin's official career had been smooth for more than ten years, rising steadily. Pang Xingjie and Zhai Liping also took advantage of him and were promoted very quickly, until Pang Xingjie served as Jiang Fangpin's secretary, and he truly made his fortune.

Jiang Fangpin's wife poured tea for Zhai Liping and her child. Jiang Fangpin asked her to go to the foyer and tell the subordinates waiting outside that he wouldn't see anyone today.

Jiang Fangpin's wife went, and Jiang Fangpin kindly stepped forward and grasped Zhai Liping's hand, saying, "Liping, don't worry too much. Xingjie won't have anything happen. I have already arranged it, and Chengshui City and Chongjin County are searching with all their might."

Zhai Liping opened her eyes wide, looked at Jiang Fangpin, and said, "Uncle Jiang, how could Xingjie have such a thing happen?"

Jiang Fangpin said, "I don't know very well either. However, I estimate it's a misunderstanding, and there shouldn't be anything happening."

Zhai Liping's eyes were very big, and now that she had just cried, she was pear blossoms with rain, pitiful. Jiang Fangpin felt heartache when he saw it. He rubbed Zhai Liping's smooth and delicate little hand, comforting her.

Zhai Liping was unaware. She let Jiang Fangpin rub her little hand. She said to Jiang Fangpin, "Uncle Jiang, you must save Xingjie back!"

Jiang Fangpin held her hand and sat on the sofa with her. His other hand held Zhai Liping's son, Pang Xiaobo, letting him sit on his other side. He said to Zhai Liping, "Liping, just rest assured, Xingjie definitely won't have anything happen."

After saying this, Jiang Fangpin turned his head to Pang Xiaobo again and said, "Xiaobo, don't be afraid either. Your father won't have anything happen."

Pang Xiaobo looked at him with a cold expression and didn't answer, as if he hadn't heard. However, Jiang Fangpin was not annoyed at all. He touched Pang Xiaobo's head dotingly.

At this time, Zhai Liping hurriedly pulled her little hand out of Jiang Fangpin's warm big hand. It turned out that Jiang Fangpin's wife, Cai Cuixiang, had returned from the foyer. Zhai Liping's action and her slightly red face were naturally seen by Cai Cuixiang. However, she acted as if she hadn't seen it and said with a smile, "Old Jiang, those people have all gone back."

Jiang Fangpin nodded and then asked Zhai Liping, "Have you mother and child eaten?"

Zhai Liping shook her head and said, "Not yet. Just finished work, went home to prepare to cook, and heard this news, so I rushed over with Xiaobo."
