Chapter 662: The Isolated God of Plagues

Three days later.

Friday, noon.

Dong Xuebing returned from Beijing. Guang Ming Subdistrict had received the Model Unit award at the ceremony yesterday. This is a relief for him as he finally got this credit after all the troubles. It’s not easy as he had offended many people because of it.

Subdistrict Office Family Quarters.

Dong Xuebing took a hot shower and changed into clean clothes after returning.

When Dong Xuebing went downstairs to go back to work, he saw two familiar faces walking into the building. It’s Geng Yuehua’s parents.

Geng Yuehua’s mother is holding a shopping basket, and they seem to be going to buy groceries.

Geng Yuehua’s father is pushing an old bicycle. The rear tire is flat, and he seems to be sending it for repairs.

Dong Xuebing walked over. “Uncle Geng, are you going to repair your bicycle? Let me push it for you.”

Geng Yuehua’s father let out a loud ‘hmph’ and continued on his way, ignoring Dong Xuebing.

Geng Yuehua’s mother angrily replied. “No need.”

Dong Xuebing stood there in embarrassment. He waited for them to leave before going into his car.

Geng Xinke had provoked Dong Xuebing and was sent to the Party School. But this does not affect Dong Xuebing’s attitude towards his parents. He saw Geng Xinke’s father pushing the bicycle with difficulties and tried to help. But he was rudely rejected. He did not blame them as he would also be unhappy if anyone treated his son like this.

Afternoon.

Dong Xuebing returned to the Subdistrict Office and called to meet with all the staff. He placed a crystal trophy on the table and announced they had gotten the model unit award.

Clap… clap… clap….

Everyone clapped.

Dong Xuebing gestured everyone to stop. “We can get this award is because of everyone’s effort. I hope all of us will continue to work hard and continue to get more honor for our Subdistrict.”

The applause continued.

This is a great honor for the Subdistrict Office.

Dong Xuebing lifted the crystal trophy. “Let’s discuss where we should place this trophy.”

Zhou Yanru laughed. “I suggest placing it in the Work Party Secretary’s office.”

Dong Xuebing smiled. “This honor belongs to everyone and should not be placed in my office.”

An Administrative Lobby staff said. “We have an Award column on the second floor of the service lobby. Should we place it there?”

Everyone discussed where they should display the award.

In the end, Dong Xuebing decided. “Let’s display it in the ground floor lobby. Set up a glass cabinet to display all this trophy and certificate. Director Zhou, you will be in charge of it.”

Zhou Yanru smiled. “I will do a good job.”

Dong Xuebing nodded. “Alright. Meeting dismiss.”

Police Station Chief Peng Kun did not attend this meeting. Guo Mingfeng was arrested by the Commission for Discipline Inspection for corruption, and Geng Xinke was sent to the Party School. Yu Rongfeng was the only one left from the Geng faction. He kept quiet throughout the meeting and did not join the discussion.

Meeting dismissed.

Dong Xuebing immediately calls Nan Shan District Executive Deputy Mayor Shen Fei to report the award ceremony in Beijing.

Shen Fei listened to him and nodded. “Well done.”

“Mayor Shen, do you have any other orders for me?” Dong Xuebing asked.

“We are having a meeting later this afternoon. Since you are back, you should attend it too.”

“What meeting is this about? Do I need to prepare any materials?”

“It is a meeting about the various Subdistrict Offices’ investment promotion. The District prepares the materials, and it is starting at 1.30 pm.”

“Ok. I will leave now.”

The District had been concerned about the model unit award and called Guang Ming Subdistrict to ask about their progress. When Dong Xuebing told Shen Fei that they would receive the award, the latter praised him for his work. But Shen Fei only said ‘Well done,’ in this phone call. This shows the District Government’s attitude towards him after the trouble he created in the past few days. The District Government is unhappy with him now.

Dong Xuebing is not surprised. He is glad he had gotten the credit and kept his position. This is good enough for him, and he is prepared to fight against anyone.

Afternoon.

District Party Committee Compound.

A black Porsche Cayenne with top-grade fittings entered the compound under the watchful eyes of the staff. It stopped at a parking lot outside of the District Government Office building, and Dong Xuebing alighted from it with his bag. This is the first time he drove his Cayenne to the District Government. He doesn’t care anymore as he had offended both the Party Secretary and Mayor. What’s there to be afraid of?

“Eh, is that Dong Xuebing?”

“Yes… it’s him.”

“He is driving a Cayenne.”

“Yes. Other than him, who else dares to drive such an expensive car around in the District?”

“That’s right. There’s no one else other than him. He should be here for the investment promotion meeting.”

“That guy is fearless, and we cannot compare to him. Lower your voices and stay away from him.”

“Yes. Let’s go. He is someone we cannot afford to offend.”

All the Staff Members pretended not to see Dong Xuebing and walked away. A few leaders holding the same rank as him switched directions and entered the building from other entrances. Everyone is trying to avoid the God of Plagues.

Everyone knows about Dong Xuebing’s hooligan ways.

Some people are afraid and try to avoid him. Some don’t want to interact with him because they are afraid the Acting District Party Secretary, Geng Yuehua, would think they are friends.

A weird phenomenon appears in the District Party Committee compound.

Everyone will disappear wherever Dong Xuebing goes. Dong Xuebing looked around and felt speechless. What did I do to you all?!
