Chapter 556 (1/2)

Chapter 556 – You will forget what your surname is!

Afternoon.

Guang Ming Subdistrict Office’s side building. The warm summer breeze blew against the Work Party Secretary Office’s windows, passing the heat in.

Knock… knock… knock…. Director Guo Mingfeng knocked on Dong Xuebing’s office and entered a document.

“Director, this is the report from our various neighborhood committees.”

“Oh, I will look at it later. What is it regarding?”

“It is about a campaign on respecting and helping the elderlies. It started last month in the District.”

“Alright. Just leave it here.”

“If there’s nothing else, I will go back to work.”

Dong Xuebing took out the document from the brown envelope after Guo Mingfeng left. Before he was appointed, this was a directive from the District, and he didn’t know about the details. But he can tell from the Neighborhood Committees’ reports that the District wants all Subdistricts to learn from Ping An Subdistrict on helping elderlies. He was still thinking of teaching Chu Qinghua and Li Lu a lesson and was more upset after reading the reports.

You want us to learn from Ping An Subdistrict?!

What a joke!

Dong Xuebing is irritated from this afternoon’s incident. He cannot tolerate anyone who used dirty tricks against him behind his back. What’s worse is they don’t have any conflicts before. He had snatched Geng Xinke’s position, and it’s normal for him to try and get back at him by trying to make him drunk. The Organization Department Deputy Chief, Peng Kun, had clashed with him because he wanted to suck up to his superior, Xue Qingrong. But what about Chu Qinghua and Li Lu? He was only the Subdistrict Office Director for one week and had not interacted with them. He even went to congratulate him on his son’s wedding. But they still used dirty tricks against him. Just because Guang Ming Subdistrict and Ping An Subdistrict are not on good terms, and you all framed me?! Damn!

Dong Xuebing cannot swallow this, as this is not his style.

Dong Xuebing walked over to the windows and stared at Li Zhi Restaurant’s entrance.

The banquet had ended, and there was not much activity at the restaurant in the afternoon. Many restaurants will close for a few hours in the afternoon and open again for the dinner crowd. But Li Zhi Restaurant is not taking a break in the afternoon. Dong Xuebing noticed a few waiters were carrying speakers and microphones out of the restaurant. They also laid out the red carpet used during the wedding banquet in the open space outside. The restaurant is only across the street, and he can see Li Lu ordering his staff around.

What are they doing?

Are they trying to hold a concert?

Dong Xuebing returned to his desk and continued with his work. He went through the documents, signed them while thinking of how to teach Li Lu a lesson. Even though Chu Qinghua had instigated Li Lu, but he holds the same rank as Dong Xuebing. Li Lu is a nobody, and he helped to frame him.

Five minutes….

Ten minutes….

Fifteen minutes….

Before Dong Xuebing went to look for trouble with Li Lu, the latter started causing trouble for him again.

“Good afternoon, everyone. Li Zhi Restaurant is having a promotion today. We are offering a 20% discount to thank everyone’s support since our opening. Our Boss, Mr. Li, is holding a quiz on our restaurant’s dishes with the dish’s name. Participants will guess what dish it is from the name. Whoever can answer all the questions correctly will get a 300 RMB voucher.”

“300 RMB for five dishes’ name?!”

“That’s right. Are you interested in trying?”

“Sure. Is it starting now?”

“Yes. Please hold on to the microphone. The first question is, what kind of dish is Volcano in the Snow?”

“This is easy. It is a cold dish with tomatoes.”

“Congratulations! You got the first question right. You must be our regular. Please listen carefully to the second question. What is Phoenix Dance?”

Li Zhi Restaurant had blasted their activity loudly through their big speakers.

Dong Xuebing frowned and walked over to the window. He saw the promotional activity outside of Li Zhi Restaurant, and it had attracted a big crowd. 300 RMB voucher is very attractive to many, as one can dine at the restaurant for a few meals. But their activity is very loud and has caused disturbance to others. He can hear everything even after he closes his windows!

“Sorry! You got this dish wrong.”

“Really? Impossible!”

“I’m sorry. Let’s invite our next contestant.”

“Me! Me!”
