Chapter 254 Gold Cannot Buy a Lean Old Age
Here's a detail.
Dawei bets that Chen Huan doesn't know about the Protector's Talisman.
I don't know how powerful this place is.
Therefore, as long as Xiao Yanfang applies a little pressure, this woman will admit that she stole a notebook.
Then Xiao Yanfang guided the conversation further, saying that the woman discovered the things recorded in the notebook were very important, and fearing she would get into trouble, she burned them.
In this way, the notebook became associated with Chen Huan.
If anyone is looking for someone, they'll go to Chen Huan, not Dawei.
What Dawei decides to do with Chen Huan, based on the people recorded in the notebook, is none of his business.
This woman came here tonight on someone's orders to frame and harm Dawei.
Then don't blame David for being ruthless.
He turned the tables and then threw a bomb at Chen Huan.
At this point, Chen Huan was still completely unaware of what was going on.
"Received. Should we ask who sent her?"
Xiao Yanfang seemed reluctant to leave, so she took the initiative to pour tea for Dawei and stood very close to him.
"No need to ask. When the time comes, whoever pleads for her, whoever wants to get her out, that's who's behind her."
Actually, David had already guessed it.
They're nothing more than Zhou's subordinates.
It certainly wasn't Vice Governor Zhou who issued the order; someone of Chen Huan's rank wouldn't have access to Vice Governor Zhou.
Moreover, Vice Governor Zhou would never have chosen someone as incompetent as Chen Huan.
"Then I'll go all out."
Xiao Yanfang asked tentatively.
Actually, this shouldn't have been said; it just puts the leader in a difficult position.
She asked this question with some emotion in her voice.
She wanted to test whether County Chief Chen was the kind of person who only loved beautiful women, and whether he would feel sorry for Chen Huan. She was clearly jealous.
David didn't reply, but picked up the newspaper from the coffee table and pretended to read it seriously.
Xiao Yanfang, realizing she was being rude, left.
David sat in the living room, smoking one cigarette after another.
Zhou Xiangzhang's passing doesn't mean the matter is over.
The forces behind Zhou Xiangzhang were filled with unease and still regarded Dawei as a thorn in their side.
Even more so.
The methods used by those behind the scenes are even more unscrupulous.
However, David was not afraid.
They came from water and went through fire.
I've never been afraid.
Now that I have my godfather, I'm even less afraid.
David knew very well that the people behind Zhou Xiangzhang were the ones who should be truly afraid.
……
Lin Yunxing drove his Passat and took Wu Maocai to the vicinity of Xu Aiguo's house overnight.
When they passed a supermarket, Wu Maocai asked his second son to stop the car.
He went to the supermarket and bought a bouquet of discounted flowers, some tea, some fruit, and the like.
Then they hurriedly got on the bus.
We arrived at the entrance of Xu Aiguo's small courtyard.
Wu Maocai, holding flowers and carrying some things, knocked on the door.
Xu Aiguo's nanny came to open the door.
Xu Aiguo's wife, Teacher Weng, wearing a plain cheongsam, stood at the living room door to greet Wu Maocai: "Maocai."
"Teacher Weng." Wu Maocai quickly stepped forward, bowed deeply to Teacher Weng, and said with deep emotion and utmost sincerity, "You, you've lost weight..."
Wu Maocai burst into tears on the spot.
This was a benefactor in his life.
"It's alright. As you get older, it's good to be thin. There's a saying that goes, 'It's hard to buy a thin body in old age.'"
"You're not old at all."
"He's getting on in years, so we have to be realistic. Come in, Old Xu is upstairs."
He said on the phone that he was coming to see her, but Teacher Weng knew perfectly well that Wu Maocai must have come to see Xu Aiguo.
When Teacher Weng told Lao Xu, Xu Aiguo told him to tell Wu Maocai to go directly to the study when he arrived.
Wu Maocai was somewhat surprised and pointed towards the second floor: "Should I go straight up?"
"Okay." Teacher Weng smiled with satisfaction: "Go ahead."
This wasn't the treatment they received before; Xu Aiguo and Wu Maocai had kept their distance.
Wu Maocai happily went upstairs, his heart leaping with joy, which meant that he had gained Xu Aiguo's approval.
Meanwhile, Ms. Weng on the first floor breathed a sigh of relief. She was the one who recommended Wu Maocai in the first place, and now that Xu Aiguo was willing to meet with Wu Maocai directly, it meant that Wu Maocai had done a good job.
Upon arriving at the study, Wu Maocai, his hands sweating profusely, gently knocked on the door.
There were people talking inside the house, then the conversation stopped.
"Come in," Xu Aiguo's voice came out.
Mao Cai opened the door.
Seeing someone sitting at the desk, it turned out to be Xiao Zhikai from the Municipal Party Committee's Organization Department?
"Minister Xu..." Wu Maocai bowed and greeted, "Minister Xiao is here too."
Xiao Zhikai smiled politely, and Xu Aiguo gestured for Wu Maocai to sit down.
The host poured tea for the two guests.
Wu Maocai felt somewhat uneasy.
Xu Aiguo's eyes seemed to see through everything: "Dawei sent you, didn't he?"
Wu Maocai raised an eyebrow and smiled somewhat awkwardly: "The leader is truly insightful and perceptive."
"Is it because..." Xu Aiguo slowly picked up his teacup, "...the selection of the county party secretary?"
Wu Maocai turned his head blankly, looking at Xiao Zhikai, then at Xu Aiguo.
Xu Aiguo burst into laughter: "Looks like I wasn't wrong."
You didn't even need to make this trip.
Chen Dawei doesn't trust me, Lao Xu, to handle things.
With Zhou Xiangzhang in trouble, how could I not pay attention to such a big matter as the selection of her successor?
I definitely need to find a good comrade who can work well with the leadership of Yuanshan County to take over.
You and Zhikai, you two should go home right away.
Don't come here unless it's absolutely necessary.
Wu Maocai then realized that Xu Aiguo had already chosen someone, namely Xiao Zhikai, who was right beside him. He finally felt relieved.
Before he could even settle in, Wu Maocai and Xiao Zhikai came out.
The two rested at a highway service area and lit cigarettes.
"Maocai, if I really manage to go to Yuanshan County, I'll definitely need your help a lot in the future."
Wu Maocai feigned fear: "Look at what you're saying. If there's anything you need, just tell me, and I'll be happy to serve you and County Chief Chen."
Xiao Zhikai held a cigarette in his left hand and supported his left elbow with the other, pacing slowly with a slightly lowered head and a serious expression.
"If I could really be transferred there."
There's something I really need your help with.
Wu Maocai leaned closer and looked at the other person very seriously: "Please give your instructions."
I don't really like Li Taoying.
Zhou Xiangzhang was brought down by her.
If I were to become the Party Secretary of Yuanshan County, I would most like you to serve as the Director of the County Party Committee Office.
Li Taoying is a woman, and so young.
Teaming up with me could ruin my reputation.
Moreover, she herself is not clean, and if something happens to her in the future, I might also be affected.
I know your methods.
You need to plan ahead and get rid of this person.
Old Wu's expression changed, and he was in a dilemma.
Xiao Zhikai patted him on the shoulder and said, "You and I are both Minister Xu's people, we're on the same side."
Upon hearing this, Wu Maocai panicked even more.
People say he's a traitor who serves three masters.
Could it be that now there's another surname to be added, like Xiao or Xu?
