On the phone.

"Why doesn't anyone dare to touch him?"

"You just need to know that no one will."

"Hey, why are you like this? You finished speaking."

"I have things to attend to here. Let's leave it at that."

"Don't hang up, wait a moment, Dad—"

Beep beep beep, Han Fei's call was cut off by Han Zhenghe. Han Fei was so angry she almost smashed her phone. What did Dong Xuebing mean by hitting a substantive director and making a big fuss about it? There may be repercussions. In her father's words, Han Fei didn't believe it. Even though her father was the director of the Second Office of the Organization Department, Han Fei's background couldn't withstand such a major incident. She felt that it wasn't just a matter of background anymore; the impact had reached a certain level, and the public pressure had reached a certain level. In her opinion, no matter how influential someone's background was, it wouldn't matter. And honestly, she couldn't see what cards or confidence Director Dong had. On the first day, Dong Xuebing took office, Han Fei asked him about his background, but he didn't say anything. Han Fei was very curious and asked many people later, but even Yin Cheng'an, the leader of the Second Division, didn't know where Dong Xuebing came from. If his background was powerful, how could nobody know? Only her father knew some things. Han Fei couldn't understand why her father wouldn't tell her, so she had to put away her phone, feeling baffled.

Meanwhile.

Footsteps sounded as Yin Cheng'an returned.

"Director Yin."

"You're back."

"How did it go with the leaders?"

Sun Zhaobang and Zhang Dongliang approached.

Yin Cheng'an shook his head. "It didn't end well. Sigh, don't mention it. Deputy Director got angry, and Zeng Ming took Yang Zhen with him first."

Han Fei also walked over. "Is Director Dong going to be in trouble?"

Yin Cheng'an nodded. "This situation is probably troublesome."

Han Fei began to question her father's words even more. Wasn't it said that nobody would dare to touch Director Dong? But look, it's already reaching a boiling point.

He Zhou looked at her. "Xiaofei, what did your dad say?"

Yin Cheng'an said, "You don't need to call your dad. This is very troublesome. It's not easy to talk to Director Han. On the contrary—"

Han Fei was speechless. "Despite the fight, my dad said nobody would dare touch Director Dong."

"What? Nobody would dare to touch Director Dong?" He Zhou was surprised. "How could Uncle Han say that?"

Han Fei shook her head helplessly. "That's what he said. I asked him what was happening, but he didn't explain it. It's so frustrating."

Yin Cheng'an blinked his eyes. "Does your dad know Director Dong?"

"Maybe," Han Fei said uncertainly. "I'm not sure."

Zhang Dongliang interjected, "But isn't Director Dong supposed to be disciplined? Why would nobody dare to touch him?"

Han Fei felt annoyed. "That's right. Who knows what's gotten into my dad? It seems like he doesn't want to help. He's just talking nonsense."

Yin Cheng'an said, "Your dad is also in a difficult position with this matter."

Just then, a clerk walked in from outside. "Where's Director Dong?"

"Hmm, Secretary Chen," Han Fei said cautiously, "What's the matter with Director Dong?"

The person had an expressionless face. "The director has returned from the meeting. Director Zhou asked for Director Dong to come over." With an official tone and without much politeness in his speech, his expression also indicated the attitude of Deputy Director Zhou behind him, clearly showing that he was very annoyed about this incident.

Yin Cheng'an glanced at him. "Secretary Chen, who else went?"

Seeing Yin Cheng'an, Secretary Chen's tone softened slightly. "Deputy Director Yang from the General Office, Yang Zhen, was also called."

"Then I'll go with him." Yin Cheng'an wanted to help explain. He was afraid Dong Xuebing would be at a disadvantage alone.

But Secretary Chen said, "I'm afraid not. The leader said only Director Dong should go. I'm sorry, Director Yin." He paused. "Where is he?"

Yin Cheng'an remained silent for a moment, then looked at Zhang Dongliang.

Zhang Dongliang turned around, lightly knocked on Dong Xuebing's office door, and then pushed it open, saying, "Director Dong, the leader asked you to go over. It's our Eighth Division's leaders."

"Okay, got it." Dong Xuebing replied. A few seconds later, he came out. Remembering that music was still playing in the room, he couldn't help but say, "Xiaozhang, could you turn off the music for me? Oh, and I haven't saved this song yet. Could you save it for me and put it on the D drive?"

Zhang Dongliang hesitated. "Sure."

He is still concerned about whether the song is saved or not.

Seeing Dong Xuebing's indifference, Secretary Chen came to call him and was also a little dizzy. He thought, What kind of leader are you? Don't you know you're in trouble? You're quite something. Deputy Director Zhou was angry with the office, yet you act as if it's no big deal.

Secretary Chen's complexion also turned sour. "Come with me."

"Director Dong," Han Fei looked guilty, feeling she had implicated him.

But Dong Xuebing waved his hand casually and said nothing, following the secretary out.

Leaving the people from the Second Office feeling heavy-hearted. Nobody knew if Dong Xuebing would be able to come back after this.

Upstairs.

Outside the leader's office.

Dong Xuebing walked lightly with Secretary Chen in the corridor, not paying much attention. When he handled things, he always dealt with them as they came; he didn't care about the chaos caused by others. He just couldn't be bothered. As for whether things could be resolved in the end, Dong Xuebing wasn't concerned. He was fearless, so he didn't worry about how to handle situations afterward. Whatever happened happened.

They arrived.

Secretary Chen knocked on the door.

A dignified voice came from inside, "Come in."

Secretary Chen pushed the door open. "Director, Director Dong is here."

"Alright, you can go back." A middle-aged man inside waved his hand with a stern face.

Secretary Chen complied respectfully, gently closed the door, and turned to leave, leaving Dong Xuebing, who had just come in.

Dong Xuebing didn't seem uncomfortable at all. He calmly glanced at the few people in front and behind the desk. Apart from him, there were three people in the room—Director Zhu Weiye, Deputy Director Zhou Dai, both leaders of the Eighth Division, and Yang Zhen from the General Office. At this moment, Yang Zhen didn't say anything and kept his head down, seemingly listening to the warning from the two leaders. Dong Xuebing wasn't acknowledged by the two leaders who entered.

"What's the matter with you?" Zhu Weiye looked displeased as he glanced at Yang Zhen and continued his previous words, "Are you letting others laugh at our Eighth Division?"

Yang Zhen kept a low profile. In front of Director Zhu, the top leader, he dared not be rebellious. Even if it were Zeng Ming, the director of their General Office, he wouldn't have the courage. Yang Zhen could only admit, "You're right. I've realized my mistake."

Zhu Weiye said, "What mistake did you make? Speak up."

Yang Zhen replied, "I shouldn't have argued with colleagues from the Second Office."

"Just that?" Zhu Weiye seemed somewhat dissatisfied.

Zhou Dai frowned and gave him a stern look, waiting for his full admission.

Yang Zhen immediately added, "No, no, there's more. I shouldn't have accidentally touched a colleague's car from the Second Office. After scratching the car, I should have come down to apologize. We're colleagues, and there was no need for such a dispute. It was my lack of composure at the time. I will correct this in the future."

Zhou Dai nodded slightly, finally satisfied.

Zhu Weiye grunted, "It's good that you recognize your mistake. But I heard that you were the one who first got physical with the people from the Second Office."

Yang Zhen quickly said, "That's not true, Director. It was just a shove during the argument. I didn't get physical. I've been working with the Discipline Inspection Commission for many years and know where to draw the line. Besides, my car was hit, and I was quite emotional at the time, so the conversation became heated, but there was no physical altercation."

Zhou Dai objectively supported Yang Zhen and said to Zhu Weiye, "Director, Xiao Yang is right. I saw his car downstairs. The entire rear end was dented."

Afterward, Zhou Dai glanced at Dong Xuebing. It wasn't intentional to target Dong Xuebing, but Zhou Dai had never had a good impression of leaders who ignored rules. Objectively speaking, Dong Xuebing was the primary person responsible for this matter.

Dong Xuebing suddenly interjected, "Oh, I'd like to hear then who pushed my shoulder."

"We didn't ask for your opinion." Zhou Dai stared at Dong Xuebing coldly. "Just stand aside."

Seeing his expression, Dong Xuebing didn't give him any face either. "Oh, I don't even have the right to speak now? You called me here to solve the problem. Since the problem has arisen, we should clarify it. Just listening to one side of the story, I don't think this is solving the problem."

Zhou Dai was annoyed. "You hit someone, and you still have the nerve to argue?"

Dong Xuebing replied calmly, "I don't think I'm right, but I also don't think I'm wrong."

Zhou Dai had never encountered a cadre who directly challenged the leadership like this before, and he was pretty angry for a moment. Now, he finally understood why someone as calm as Yang Zhen would resort to physical violence in such a situation. This newcomer, Dong Xuebing, was infuriating to talk to.

How did he even get into the discipline inspection team?

How did the higher-ups assign them such a thuggish cadre?

Zhou Dai couldn't understand. If it were up to him, why bother discussing anything? He would have suspended Dong Xuebing right away for investigation. But Zhou Dai wasn't the top leader. He couldn't make decisions on this matter. The only person in the Eighth Division who could make decisions was Zhu Weiye. When Director Zhu returned, Zhou Dai reported the situation and proposed his solution. He wanted to suspend Dong Xuebing first to explain to everyone, but Director Zhu didn't respond immediately. Instead, he called in the two parties involved on the spot. Zhou Dai could only follow suit.
