Shu Xue thought there was so personal grudge between Song Guanchao and Yao Guangsong.
It turned out he told her that this was Mayor Wu's idea.
Does Mayor Wu want to remove Yao Guangsong? Is this a declaration of war against Mayor Zhang?
Shu Xue's heart began to race, feeling a hint of excitent.
She had only seen political struggles in novels and TV dramas before. She didn't expect that having just beco Mayor Wu's secretary, she would experience it firsthand.
This feeling was quite intriguing.
She was a little scared, but more than that, she felt anticipation.
"What does District Chief Song want to do?"
"Help organize the identity information of those won and give it to ."
"Also, send Director Zhou Xingjian's contact information."
"Is there anything else?"
Song Guanchao shook his head.
Shu Xue suddenly felt a bit deflated. Was her role just to gather information?
But then she thought, she's just a secretary, and hasn't been in the role for long.
Even if he did assign her so important tasks, she perhaps wouldn't have the ability to complete them.
"I understand." Shu Xue nodded.
She decided to report to Mayor Wu first thing tomorrow.
Even though Song Guanchao said so, she still needed to hear the confird news directly from Mayor Wu.
"By the way, District Chief Song, I have so questions I want to ask you."
"Go ahead."
"It's my first ti being a secretary, and there are many things I don't quite understand. Can you give so advice?"
So that's why she invited for a al.
Song Guanchao smiled and said, "My experience might not suit you."
"But I can tell you so of Mayor Wu's habits."
"Yes, yes." Shu Xue nodded vigorously, eagerly listening.
Song Guanchao didn't hold back, briefly talking about Wu Qiangwei's habits and personality.
Then, he also shared so points that need attention in the secretary profession.
These were all his personal insights and experiences.
Shu Xue, only 23 years old, had joined the city governnt right after university graduation.
Although her learning ability was strong, she lacked work experience.
What Song Guanchao said ca from the heart, and she could tell these were wise words, which could save her from making detours for years.
After the al, Shu Xue gained a lot.
"Thank you, District Chief Song."
"You're welco. After all, we're colleagues."
He checked the ti, stood up, and said, "It's getting late; let's go."
Shu Xue picked up her phone and went to the cashier to pay.
The al cost her more than seven hundred yuan, which was quite a significant expense considering her current salary.
However, she felt the al was worth it.
Leaving the restaurant, Song Guanchao took out his car keys, "Where do you live? I'll give you a ride."
"No need, I'll just take a cab."
"I'll see you off." Song Guanchao headed towards the parking lot. Shu Xue hesitated for a mont but followed along.
Half an hour later, the car pulled into her residential complex and stopped downstairs.
"Thanks for the trouble, District Chief Song."
As Shu Xue unfastened her seatbelt, she wrestled with whether to invite Song Guanchao up for a cup of tea or sothing.
In regular social interactions, that's usually what one would do.
But it was already late.
And she lived in a rented apartnt alone.
It was so late, just the two of them here.
And she didn't really know much about Song Guanchao, especially about his character.
If he made any inappropriate requests...
In the few seconds from unbuckling her seatbelt to opening the car door, a stream of thoughts raced through her mind.
Ultimately, she said, "District Chief Song, co up and have a cup of tea."
"It's quite late, I won't go up."
Song Guanchao could sense her hesitation and worry.
No need to make the young lady nervous at this hour.
Sure enough, after he declined, Shu Xue visibly exhaled a sigh of relief.
"Drive safely, District Chief Song."
Watching Shu Xue go upstairs, Song Guanchao made a U-turn and headed towards the party school.
Back at his dormitory, Song Guanchao took a quick shower and lay down.
He roughly had a plan in mind on how to deal with Yao Guangsong.
However, what he was thinking about right now wasn't this, but Zhou Zheng, the City Secretary.
This morning in the City Committee Office, Zhou Zheng's attitude annoyed him greatly.
Even with Wu Qiangwei present, he spoke to him in such a condescending tone.
Sure, rank has its privileges—Zhou Zheng was not just one level above him.
Originally, Song Guanchao thought Zhou Zheng and Wu Qiangwei would cooperate well in work.
But after today, he discovered that Zhou Zheng seed to be an official solely focused on achievents.
And he appeared to have an autocratic streak.
Song Guanchao strongly suspected if anything happened that required joint discussion, Zhou Zheng might ignore the opinions of other mbers and do things his own way.
The problem is, Wu Qiangwei, at her core, has bits of idealism.
If they run into a problem, Qiangwei might end up clashing with him.
This sort of thing is unavoidable.
The only solution is to help Wu Qiangwei stabilize her position as Mayor.
At the sa ti, ensure she also has control over the City Committee's powers!
But this isn't an easy task.
...
The next day.
Shu Xue arrived early at the office, cleaning up and making a cup of tea just in ti.
"Good morning, Mayor Wu."
"Good morning."
Wu Qiangwei sat down and, seeing Shu Xue hadn't left, asked, "Is there sothing you need?"
Shu Xue said, "District Chief Song told sothing yesterday."
She reported to her about Song Guanchao's intention to deal with Yao Guangsong.
On the surface, Wu Qiangwei remained calm, but she couldn't quite put her feelings into words.
Of course, she was pleased because Song Guanchao was eager to transfer to the Provincial City, willing to target Yao Guangsong and forcibly create a vacancy in the City Governnt Office Director's position.
Yet she was also a bit worried.
Song Guanchao had ntioned yesterday he was going to see Zhang Yan.
Clearly, since he hadn't reached an agreent with Zhang Yan, he decided to act directly.
But from Shu Xue's description, Song Guanchao seed to plan on targeting Yao Guangsong's romantic affairs.
For an official at the director level, engaging in inappropriate relationships is hardly an issue at all, just a matter of morale.
Trying to bring him down this way is nearly impossible.
Wu Qiangwei internally sighed.
Song Guanchao was ultimately too impatient, and Jiangzhou is not Lingjiang; he doesn't have allies here.
Even if he wanted to investigate Yao Guangsong, it'd be impossible for him to do so.
Not to ntion how investigating a director-level official isn't a trivial task.
"I understand." Wu Qiangwei nodded.
Shu Xue exhaled lightly; Song Guanchao hadn't lied to her, Mayor Wu indeed knew about this matter.
Now, she had no worries left in her heart.
After leaving the office, she carefully transcribed the information on those won involved with Yao Guangsong, editing it into a file.
She checked and ensured there were no mistakes, then sent it to Song Guanchao.
She also forwarded Deputy Director Zhou Xingjian's number to him.
Song Guanchao replied with a "Received," then imdiately called Lu Feng.
"Madman, bring Zhijun and the others to the Provincial City. There's work to do."
