Chapter 3684

When Cao Yuanhao was running the projects, he already had some disdain for Lin Shaoguang because he felt that Lin Shaoguang didn't listen to him much and sometimes even tried to dissuade him from some of his actions. Now that Lin Shaoguang was touching his sore spot again, how could he not be angry?

However, the occasion was extraordinary, with so many municipal leaders present, so Cao Yuanhao couldn't easily flare up. He could only harbor hatred for Lin Shaoguang in his heart.

Su Xinghui could see that Lin Shaoguang had drunk a bit too much, and he didn't want to have any conflict with Cao Yuanhao at this time, so Su Xinghui said, "Old Lin, the credit this time is mainly yours. Come, I'll toast you again."

Lin Shaoguang, however, said seriously, "Mayor Su, don't flatter us. If it weren't for you persuading Mr. Nelson of the World Bank and Minister Shi of the Ministry of Railways this time, these two projects would not have been taken down. We just ran errands; you were the one who played the key role."

Cao Yuanhao's face turned livid. Su Xinghui said to Lin Shaoguang, "Alright, alright, Old Lin, let's have a drink."

Su Xinghui had a drink with Lin Shaoguang and then had someone help him down, saying he had drunk too much. Lin Shaoguang had indeed drunk too much. As he was being helped out, he kept saying, "Mayor Su, I'm not drunk. I admire you. A leader like you is a good leader!"

Lin Shaoguang's words made Cao Yuanhao gnash his teeth, and the expressions of the other leaders were also somewhat unnatural. How could they feel comfortable hearing Lin Shaoguang's words?

However, Lin Shaoguang's words were drunken words, and no one could hold it against him. Therefore, this was just a small interlude, and the atmosphere at the banquet soon returned to being lively.

However, everyone could see that Cao Yuanhao was in a very bad mood, which was also a very normal thing. The bragging he had just done was immediately punctured on the spot; it would be strange if he could be in a good mood.

Cao Yuanhao's mood was indeed very bad. He not only hated Lin Shaoguang but also hated Su Xinghui. He had already had a bad impression of Su Xinghui before, as Su Xinghui had made him lose face several times, and today he had made him lose such a big face in front of so many municipal leaders. He believed the root cause lay with Su Xinghui.

Although Su Xinghui had been trying to smooth things over just now and had someone help Lin Shaoguang down, Cao Yuanhao felt that Su Xinghui was just putting on an act, making him lose face while still playing the good guy. Therefore, he did not reduce his hatred for Su Xinghui in the slightest.

Cao Yuanhao was unhappy, and many municipal leaders were somewhat gloating. They could certainly see that Cao Yuanhao hated Su Xinghui, and they actually hoped that Cao Yuanhao would fight with Su Xinghui, at least not letting Su Xinghui be too comfortable.

Just like that, this welcome banquet ended with this unexpected interlude, and everyone left with their own thoughts.

Su Xinghui, of course, could see that Cao Yuanhao was very unhappy today, but he didn't care about Cao Yuanhao's feelings. No matter how unhappy Cao Yuanhao was with him, what could he do?

Time passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was 2007. At the beginning of this year, Linshan City conducted another routine cadre adjustment.

When Su Xinghui first arrived in Linshan, Linshan conducted a cadre adjustment, but that was because there were a large number of vacancies in Linshan City at that time, so that was a passive adjustment. And at the beginning of every year or two, there is usually a cadre adjustment for some positions, which can be considered an active adjustment.

It was precisely at this time that Chen Xuehai was transferred from Baozhou to Linshan. His personnel file was temporarily placed in the Linshan Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, and his official position had not yet been decided. However, Su Xinghui had already told him the bottom line: he would arrange for Chen Xuehai to serve as the Deputy Director and Chief Auditor of the Audit Bureau.
