Chapter 386 – Gone! (1/2)
It was getting tense.
More and more staff from the Investment Promotion Agency had come out to watch the commotion. They are standing along the corridors and out through the windows. The group of passersby, Cao Xupeng, Zhao Xinglong, and the Agency leaders, looked at Dong Xuebing, who was on the phone. All of them do not know who Dong Xuebing is calling.
Suddenly, Dong Xuebing walked towards the reporters and held his phone out.
Li Shengbing, Wang Na, and Wang Ting looked at him, “… what do you want?!”
“Answer it!” Dong Xuebing looked at Li Shengbing. “It’s your leader!”
Cao Xupeng and Zhao Xinglong exchanged looks. They were shocked. Xiao Dong has connections with the leaders in Xin Hua News Agency?!
Li Shengbing frowned and did not take the phone.
Wang Na and Wang Ting were suspicious and wonder which leader is Dong Xuebing talking about.
Dong Xuebing let out a sneer. “You don’t want to answer it? Fine.”
“Wait!” Li Shengbing saw Dong Xuebing was about to say something over the phone, and he quickly stopped him. He took the phone from Dong Xuebing and wonders who Dong Xuebing has contacted. Dong Xuebing is a leader from Yan Tai County, and how can someone from such a backward place know the higher-ups of Xin Hua News Agency? Xin Hua News Agency Head office is an independent department and does not have many dealings with the grassroots level. Furthermore, Li Shengbing is a deputy team leader and has some connections within the agency.
Li Shengbing answered the phone. “Hello?”
“You are Li Shengbing from the domestic news-editorial department?” A woman asked coldly.
A woman? She sounded young. Li Shengbing frowned and asked. “Yes. You are?”
Xie Jing did not reply to him. Her tone is totally different now. “Your direct supervisor is Li Xudong, right?! Hmph! I didn’t know Old Li’s staff is so capable to teach Yan Tai County how to work! You still dare to threaten the leader of their Investment Promotion Agency?! Good job! Li Shengbing, how was your inspection there? How many black sheep have you discover?”
Li Shengbing’s face changed after hearing the woman’s sarcastic words!
Li Xudong? Director Li? He is not Li Shengbing’s direct supervisor. He is his supervisor’s leader!
The woman had called him Old Li and sounded close to Director Li!
Li Shengbing’s heart is racing, and his tone changed. “Sorry. May I know who I am speaking to?” He asked and suddenly remembered a person’s name.
Xie Jing replied emotionlessly. “I am Xie Jing from HR!”
Oh my god! It’s really her! Li Shengbing’s hand shook, and he nearly dropped the phone. “Sec… Section Chief Xie!”
How come it’s her?!
Li Shengbing knew he had picked a fight with the wrong person this time!
Xie Jing saw Li Shengbing not saying anything, and she continued. “Li Shengbing… you are too daring. Is it fun to use your status as Xin Hua News Agency reporter to bully others? I think the HR department must reassess you. Alright. Come and see me at the HR department when you are back!”
Li Shengbing turned pale. “No… Section Chief Xie… No… I…”
Luo Haiting and Lin Pingping were standing near Li Shengbing, and they were shocked to see the changes on his face.
Xie Jing continued. “Even I have to address that ‘black sheep’ Brother! You really dare to offend anyone!”
“No… Section Chief Xie! Section Chief!” The line was cut.
Everyone saw Li Shengbing’s panicking expression and immediately understood what happened. He must have been reprimanded by his leaders. Lots of people look at Dong Xuebing and wonder what sort of background does he have.
Wang Na asked anxiously. “Shengbing, what happened?”
