However, Guan Xinmin was no longer in a hurry to call Chu Heng. He had to seek the opinion of his old friend first. If the other party agreed, then let the two people get in touch on their own. If the marriage could come true, it would undoubtedly be a great help to Chu Heng's future progress. Very helpful, his old friend is now a deputy in the ministry, and there is hope for a further advancement in the future.
Thinking in his mind, Guan Xinmin picked up the phone and called his old friend. He seemed to want to be his old friend.
Jiangzhou City.
Qiao Liang came to the city in the evening. At this time, he did not know the news from the province. After arriving at the city compound, Qiao Liang went straight to Wu Huiwen's office.
Wu Huiwen was reviewing documents. Seeing Qiao Liang come in, Wu Huiwen said, "Xiao Qiao, you don't have to do this job anymore, do you? Keep running towards me."
"Sister Wu, look what you said, you are now the top leader in the city, I have to come and report my thoughts to you." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"Well, then you report it, I'll listen." Wu Huiwen pursed her lips and smiled.
Qiao Liang chuckled, walked to the chair opposite Wu Huiwen, sat down, and said, "Sister Wu, what do you think of Mayor Chu's public opinion today?"
"How can I see it? It's a private matter." Wu Huiwen said lightly, "Why, you also like to follow the gossip?"
"That's not true. I was thinking that if Mayor Chu caused such a negative incident at this juncture, I'm afraid it would have a big impact on the competition for the mayor's position." Qiao Liang said.
Hearing Qiao Liang say this, Wu Huiwen stopped the pen in his hand and asked, "Who do you think is more suitable to be the mayor, Mayor Chu or Secretary Xu?"
Qiao Liang rolled his eyes and said, "I don't think either of them is suitable."
"Really?" Wu Huiwen looked at Qiao Liang, "Why do you think they are not suitable for each other?"
"Haha, there's no reason, it's just a personal intuition." Qiao Liang said with a smile. In front of Wu Huiwen, he couldn't say what conflicts or personal rifts he had with Chu Heng and Xu Honggang.
Seeing that Qiao Liang was not telling the truth, Wu Huiwen smiled and said, "Xiao Qiao, have you also begun to learn to lie to me?"
"Sister Wu, I didn't lie." Qiao Liang smiled, "I just said it based on my personal intuition. Otherwise, how could I, a small cadre, dare to comment on the city's leaders casually?"
"Not a word of truth." Wu Huiwen raised his finger and pointed at Qiao Liang, snorted, and said with some confusion, "Secretary Xu has helped you a lot in the past. Don't you want him to be the mayor?"
After Wu Huiwen was transferred from Jiangzhou, he was obviously not clear about the subsequent changes in the relationship between Xu Honggang and Qiao Liang, so he asked this question.
"Sister Wu, who can be the mayor of Jiangzhou is decided by the superior leaders, not just whoever I want to be." Qiao Liang said with a smile, and did not directly answer Wu Huiwen's question.
Seeing what Wu Huiwen wanted to ask, Qiao Liang took the initiative to change the subject, "Sister Wu, why haven't the higher-ups considered sending a suitable cadre from the province to be the mayor of Jiangzhou?"
"I'm not the leader above, how do I know?" Wu Huiwen glanced at Qiao Liang meaningfully. She was keen and realized that the relationship between Qiao Liang and Xu Honggang might not be as harmonious as she imagined. She couldn't help but said, "Xiao Qiao" , I'm afraid your idea will come to nothing, the province has decided to let Secretary Xu hold the post of mayor."
"What?" Qiao Liang's eyes widened, "The province has already issued a document?"
"It hasn't been officially released yet, but I just heard the news from my friends in the province." Wu Huiwen said, "Basically there will be no more changes."
When Qiao Liang heard this, he was a little silent. He didn't expect Xu Honggang to win the mayoral battle so quickly. To be honest, this surprised Qiao Liang, but if he thought about it carefully, it was actually reasonable. Today Chu Heng's incident was really beneficial to Xu Honggang, but Qiao Liang didn't expect that the province would make a decision so quickly.
Could Wu Wenwen's incident really be planned secretly by Xu Honggang? Qiao Liang once again doubted Xu Honggang, but he couldn't figure out how Xu Honggang knew that Wu Wenwen and Chu Heng had such a relationship in the past.
After a brief silence, Qiao Liang smiled and said, "Sister Wu, it seems that you will be working with Secretary Xu in the future."
"Yeah." Wu Huiwen nodded and said, "When I was the mayor of Jiangzhou, Secretary Xu was the city's propaganda director. I had a good impression of him."
"Sister Wu, sometimes you can't fully understand a person just by looking at his or her surface." Qiao Liang reminded Wu Huiwen.
Hearing Qiao Liang's words, Wu Huiwen glanced at Qiao Liang again, becoming increasingly aware that there was something wrong with the relationship between Qiao Liang and Xu Honggang.
"Xiao Qiao, do you have any opinion on Secretary Xu?" Wu Huiwen couldn't help but ask.
"I don't have any opinion. In the future, Sister Wu will work with him. I believe that through more contacts, you will gradually get to know Secretary Xu." Qiao Liang said lightly. He still adhered to his principles and did not say anything about Xu Honggang behind his back. Bad words, this is the maximum he can do.
Seeing that Qiao Liang didn't want to say more, Wu Huiwen didn't ask any more questions. He checked the time and found that it was already time to get off work. Wu Huiwen said, "Let's go and have dinner. You invited me to dinner last night, and I'll treat you tonight." .”
"Sister Wu, why are we so clearly separated?" Qiao Liang said with a smile.
The two of them came out of the office together and met Xu Honggang in the corridor who was about to leave.
Xu Honggang saw Qiao Liang and Wu Huiwen together, his eyes narrowed slightly, and soon returned to normal, calmly greeting Wu Huiwen, "Secretary Wu."
Wu Huiwen looked at Xu Honggang and said with a smile, "Comrade Hong Gang, congratulations."
Xu Honggang knew what Wu Huiwen meant, and was not surprised that the other party knew in advance that he would be the mayor of Jiangzhou. If the other party did not even have this information channel, it would not be possible for him to be where he is today.
Xu Honggang also said calmly at this moment, "Secretary Wu, I hope that we can work together in the future to write a new chapter for the development of Jiangzhou City."
"Comrade Hong Gang is right, our mission is to benefit the millions of people in Jiangzhou City and be good public servants to the masses." Wu Huiwen said with a smile.
Xu Honggang smiled and nodded, but there was a look of disapproval deep in his eyes.
Suddenly, Xu Honggang slapped his forehead and said with a smile, "Oh, I forgot something in the office. I'll go back and get it."
Xu Hong just returned to his office after speaking. He obviously didn't want to go downstairs with Qiao Liang and Wu Huiwen. From the beginning to the end, he seemed to ignore Qiao Liang and didn't say a word to Qiao Liang.
Standing in front of the office window, Xu Honggang watched Wu Huiwen and Qiao Liang get into the car and leave together downstairs, frowning slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
About a minute or two later, Xu Honggang took out his mobile phone and called Wang Qingcheng, the city inspection leader.
"Wang Jian, are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together," Xu Honggang said.
"Yes, Secretary Xu, if you invite me, I will definitely be free." Wang Qingcheng smiled attentively.
"Okay, let's meet at the hotel later," Xu Honggang said.
After the two talked on the phone, Xu Honggang suddenly thought of Xue Yuan again. He could become the mayor so quickly this time. The source called.
On the other end of the phone, Xue Yuan and Wu Wenwen were still staying in the dormitory. The two had been staying in the room for a day, and they still didn't dare to go out, even though Xu Honggang had told Xue Yuan that Kang Dewang and the others had been taken to the police station. , and will be detained for a few days, but Xue Yuan and Wu Wenwen are still a little suspicious, worried that Chu Heng will send someone else to guard downstairs.
Seeing Xu Honggang calling, Xue Yuan cheered up and answered Xu Honggang's call.
When the call was connected, Xu Honggang asked, "Xiao Xue, where are you?"
"Secretary Xu, I'm in the dormitory." Xue Yuan replied.
Hearing that Xue Yuan was still in the dormitory, Xu Honggang smiled and said, "Xiao Xue, you didn't even leave the door today, right?"
Xue Yuan smiled dryly, acquiescing to Xu Honggang's words.
When Xu Honggang heard that Xue Yuan didn't say anything, he guessed that he must have been right. He couldn't help but secretly laugh. Is Xue Yuan so afraid of Chu Heng?
Thinking in his mind, Xu Honggang said, "Xiao Xue, don't worry, the province has decided to let me serve as the mayor of Jiangzhou City, and you are my great contributor."
"Secretary Xu, has it been decided in the province?" Xue Yuan stood up excitedly.
"That's right." Xu Honggang was quite high-spirited at the moment and said, "Xiao Xue, please bring Wu Wenwen out. I'll treat you to dinner tonight, but I have other dinners tonight. You guys eat first, and I'll go over and follow you after I'm done here. You guys have two drinks."
"Okay, Secretary Xu, please take care of your entertainment first. Wu Wenwen and I are not in a hurry." Xue Yuan said excitedly.
"Haha, it's okay. Just bring Wu Wenwen out. I will arrange two adjacent boxes in the hotel so it won't get in the way." Xu Honggang smiled slightly and said, "Okay, that's settled."
After making a phone call with Xue Yuan, Xu Honggang asked someone to book two private rooms at a hotel he often frequented, and at the same time sent the hotel's address to Xue Yuan.
After checking the time, Xu Honggang also set off for the hotel.
The reason why Xu Honggang was so polite to Xue Yuan and Wu Wenwen was that in addition to the fact that these two people had really helped him a lot this time, Xu Honggang had another layer of calculation in his mind. He felt that maybe Wu Wenwen knew some dirty information about Chu Heng, but the other party Xu Honggang had some reservations, and Chu Heng was still the executive deputy mayor of the city. After he became the mayor, if Chu Heng dared to confront him, Xu Honggang would need something substantial to suppress Chu Heng. At this time, See if Wu Wenwen can provide him with any assistance.
Of course, these are just Xu Honggang's thoughts at the moment. Whether Wu Wenwen has any black information about Chu Heng is now just Xu Honggang's guess.
In the rental house, Xue Yuan hung up the phone and said to Wu Wenwen excitedly, "Wenwen, our bet was right, Secretary Xu won, and the province decided to make Secretary Xu the mayor of our Jiangzhou."
