Chapter 422 – Are you treating me as your driver?

Chapter 422 – Are you treating me as your driver?

Next morning.

The dark clouds are gone, and it’s bright and sunny.

Dong Xuebing packed his stuff and left his apartment. He went downstairs and saw his Mercedes MPV with a new Beijing number plate, 9999, before boarding his car and drove out of his neighborhood. It’s time for him to return to Yan Tai County as he had finished all his errands in Beijing. When Dong Xuebing was out of the city area, he saw a signboard, Da Feng County’s Beijing offsite office, by the roadside.

Dong Xuebing slowed down, and his eyes turned cold.

He remembered what Madam Han said yesterday.

Someone is making use of Liu Cheng. Who is the one behind Liu Cheng? The first person that comes to Dong Xuebing’s mind is Pang Zhou!

At the clubhouse’s lobby, Pang Zhou had seen Madam Han and Dong Xuebing in the lift. He must have thought Madam Han is his mother and told Liu Cheng she is a teacher. It’s easy to guess what happened next. He must have instigated Liu Cheng to go after Dong Xuebing’s ‘mother,’ a widow.

Pang Zhou’s real target is not Madam Han, but Dong Xuebing’s mother!

F**k! This old bastard! This is too much!

This is not the first time Pang Zhou had created trouble for Dong Xuebing. A few days ago, he had instigated Xin Hua News Agency reporters to create trouble for Yan Tai County’s Investment Promotion Agency. That incident is similar to this incident. Pang Zhou is hiding behind the curtains instigating others. If it is not because Dong Xuebing knows people within Xin Hua News Agency, he might have been framed and doesn’t know Pang Zhou is the mastermind.

Damn! Pang Zhou!

You instigate others to go after my mother?! This is to embarrass me?!

Dong Xuebing’s face turned cold. He worked in the government sector for two years, and it’s rare to see someone as disgusting as Pang Zhou. Dong Xuebing had never offended him, but he kept finding trouble with him. He even wants to target his mother. How despicable is he to do such things?!

Suddenly, Da Feng County’s Beijing offsite office’s door opens, and a group of people walks out. One of them is Pang Zhou, and Dong Xuebing has not seen the rest.

Pang Zhou and a few staff are crowding beside a middle-aged man.

Dong Xuebing is driving slowly as he is thinking about Pang Zhou and is surprised to see him. Pang Zhou was still at the clubhouse with Liu Cheng. After Liu Cheng is hospitalized, he comes over to his County’s offsite office as if it has nothing to do with him. Dong Xuebing’s impression of Pang Zhou got worse. This person is not only petty and scheming, but he is also irresponsible!

Pang Zhou saw Dong Xuebing’s car. “Eh? Chief Dong!”

Dong Xuebing did not stop and continued moving forward.

But Pang Zhou quickly stepped onto the road and stop Dong Xuebing’s car.

Dong Xuebing stepped on the brakes and is furious. How dare he block my way?

Pang Zhou laughed. “Chief Dong, this direction… are you going back to the County? That’s great.” He spoke as if he doesn’t know what happened yesterday. “Mayor Li’s car had broken down, and his driver had just sent it to the workshop. Our Counties are next to each other, and it’s on the way. Let’s go back together.”

Dong Xuebing rolled down the windows and coldly replied. “I did not say I am returning to the County.”

Pang Zhou laughed. “Then just give Mayor Li a lift. Anyway, it’s not far from here, and the leader had lots of work waiting for him in the County. You can’t let him take a taxi, right?” before Dong Xuebing could reply, Pang Zhou turns to Mayor Li. “Mayor, this is Yan Tai County’s Investment Promotion Agency’s Chief Dong. He is returning to the County and can give you a lift.”

Mayor Li, who is at the entrance, nodded and said something to the people around him before walking over to Dong Xuebing’s car.

Pang Zhou opened the rear passenger door for Mayor Li to board and followed to sit beside him before closing the door.

Dong Xuebing is furious when these two people boarded his car without his permission. Did I allow you all to enter my car? Are you all treating me as your driver?

But it was Da Feng County’s Mayor, Li Feng, and even if he is not from Yan Tai County, he should have some connections in the City. Furthermore, Mayor Li held a higher rank, and Dong Xuebing did not chase him out after he boarded his car. If he does that, he will offend Li Feng greatly. He looks at the old bastard, Pang Zhou. If Dong Xuebing refuses to drive, Pang Zhou will instigate Li Feng to target him.

Damn!

Dong Xuebing decides he will settle the scores with Pang Zhou. His actions had crossed the line.

Old bastard! If I cannot remove you from your position, I will write my name backward in the future!

Dong Xuebing drove off towards the south.

Li Feng is much older than Xie Huilan, and their characters are poles apart. He is very serious and other than receiving two phone calls, he spoke about work with Pang Zhou. Dong Xuebing can tell Pang Zhou and Li Feng are not very close from their conversations. After driving for so long, Li Feng had not even thanked him and treated him as his driver. It’s as if it’s his duty and honor for him to drive Li Feng back.

These bastards!

Dong Xuebing is an Agency’s Chief, after all. Even if he is lower ranked than a County Mayor, should you thank me for giving you a lift because your car had broken down?! Do you think I owe you?

Dong Xuebing does not fear anyone and doesn’t care whether if you are the Mayor or not!

At around 9.30 am, Dong Xuebing entered Yan Tai County.

Pang Zhou, who was sitting at the back, looks in front. “Drive further towards the south and turn towards the west to Da Feng County Government Building.” Both Counties are next to each other, and further south of Yan Tai County is Da Feng County.

Dong Xuebing heard Pang Zhou’s orders and stepped on the brakes!

*Screeched! The Mercedes MPV stopped by the roadside!

Li Feng and Pang Zhou almost knocked their heads against the seats in front. Li Feng frowned and looks at Dong Xuebing.

Dong Xuebing has seen someone at the entrance of a hotel next to the road. He turned. “Sorry, Mayor Li. I just got my driving license and is a new driver. Oh, I have something urgent to attend to. I have an appointment with someone, and my leaders will give me a scolding if I am late. So, I can only send you all to here.” After that, Dong Xuebing alighted and walked towards the hotel, leaving Li Feng and Pang Zhou in the car.

“Mr. Peng!”

“Huh? Chief Dong?”

“Are you free? I would like to discuss something with you.”

“Sure. I had just sent off a friend. Let’s find someplace quiet to talk.”

The man standing outside of the hotel is Peng Kenong. He had signed the letter of investment intent for the Chicken Manure processing plant with Dong Xuebing and Lin Pingping. They will be signing the official contract soon. This investment is around 10 million RMB. It’s one of the first projects handled by Dong Xuebing after he was appointed.

“How’s Xiao Hu doing? Is he doing well in his studies?”

“Sigh… He only knows how to play PC games and is always in his class’s last few positions. He talked about you and wants me to invite you home to teach him how to play games. This kid is addicted. Online games are too harmful.” Peng Kenong saw Pang Zhou in Dong Xuebing’s car, as they had dinner together twice in the past. But since he decided to invest in Yan Tai County, he pretended not to see him.

In the car.

Li Feng’s face changed when he saw Dong Xuebing walks away, leaving them in the car. He did not expect a lowly Investment Promotion Agency Chief will dare to treat him this way. But he knows Dong Xuebing is not his subordinate and has no right to make him his driver. He did not say anything and alighted to find someone to send him back to Da Feng County.

Pang Zhou saw Li Feng’s face and said. “This Xiao Dong is too much. What can be more important than your work?” He started to sow discord.

Li Feng looked at Pang Zhou and frowned.

Pang Zhou knew what he said was too much, but he continued. “That person looks like Peng Kenong. We were still talking about his investment in our County the last time we met. How did Xiao Dong bring him over to Yan Tai County? This is too much! He had snatched a pork processing plant investment, which we had sealed the deal previously, and he is doing this again!” Pang Zhou is lying as Liang Zeyuan had not even signed the letter of investment intent with Da Feng County.

“… huh? Is this true?” Li Feng had heard about the pork processing plant. “Isn’t this investment been confirmed during the meeting?”

Pang Zhou nodded. “But Yan Tai County snatched the investment from us.”

Li Feng is concerned with Da Feng County’s Investment promotion and had mentioned it more than once during meetings. His face turned black when he heard this.

Pang Zhou knew he is successful. “Mayor, we…”

Li Feng looks at his watch. “Don’t call for a call. We will leave at night.”

Pang Zhou laughed in his heart as he knows Mayor Li has deep connections in the Provincial Government.
