Power and Wealth Chapter 1015: The entrance was blocked

Chapter 1015: The entrance was blocked

Afternoon.

After lunch.

Dong Xuebing received a call from Liu Hanqing.

“Director, I discovered something about Liu Haibin.”

“Oh?” Dong Xuebing narrowed his eyes. “What is it? Has it been confirmed?”

“Someone had reported against him, and we had verified it. Liu Haibin had received 50,000 RMB from a tour operator, but the former did not help him do anything. After one month, the tour operator did not receive any news and reported him out of anger.”

“Good job.”

“What do you want me to do now?”

“Put up a report and give it to me.”

“Alright. I know what to do.”

Old Liu was an experienced Discipline Inspection staff, and Dong Xuebing knew he would discover something. He managed to discover something within a few hours. It was common to send and receive gifts in the government service, and Dong Xuebing believed Liu Hanqing had used some tricks to get this evidence. After all, Liu Hanqing had worked in the Discipline Inspection for many years and had many tricks to deal with his target.

Since you want to challenge me, let’s fight.

I am not scared of you!

This investigation could not be kept under wraps anymore.

Many people within the City Party Committee building heard the Discipline Inspection was targeting Liu Haibin again, and they had gotten concrete evidence. Once the evidence was confirmed, Liu Haibin would face criminal charges. Everyone was not surprised by Dong Xuebing’s actions. They had seen him doing such things more than once. Liu Haibin had crossed the line by using media to tarnish a government leader’s reputation. It was okay if Dong Xuebing was still Guang Ming Subdistrict Chief. But he is different now. The City Publicity Department must approve any reports about him. They published the report before getting permission, and this was seeking their deaths. Even if Liu Haibin and Dong Haitao are not afraid of the God of Plagues, they should show his wife respect. Do you think you can do whatever you want just because your father is a City Party Committee member?!

Ring… ring… ring….

Dong Xuebing’s phone rang. It was a Discipline Inspection leader.

Dong Xuebing heard this leader was close with Liu Guowei and his family and knew he was calling to plead for Liu Haibin. He did not answer the call.

The next call was Zhan Guiping. “Come to my office now, Director Dong.”

Dong Xuebing went to Zhan Guiping’s office immediately. “Secretary Zhan, are you looking for me?”

“I heard what happened.” Zhan Guiping looked terrible and seemed to be furious. “Send Liu Haibin’s evidence to me once you confirm it.”

Dong Xuebing replied. “Thank you.”

“You don’t need to thank me. The Discipline Inspection has to investigate such cases.”

“He is Commander Liu’s son, after all. What about Secretary He?”

Zhan Guiping waved her hand. “You don’t need to worry about this. I had spoken to Secretary He earlier, and he is furious over Nan Qi Morning Papers.”

Dong Xuebing understood why Secretary He was furious. His asset was legitimate, and it was Secretary He who approved it. Now, Liu Haibin tried to frame Dong Xuebing by exposing his asset to the public and implicated all Discipline Inspection leaders. This was telling the civilians that they were covering up for Dong Xuebing.

No wonder Liu Guowei had looked for Xie Huilan and got someone to call him. He knew his son had crossed the line.

It was okay if he offended Dong Xuebing.

It was also okay if he offended Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan.

But Liu Haibin had offended the whole City Discipline Inspection now, and Liu Guowei was in an awkward position.

Dong Xuebing could not stop the other City Discipline Inspection Leaders.

After dealing with Nan Qi Morning Dong Haitao and getting evidence against Liu Haibin, they can no longer remain in the government. Dong Xuebing calmed down a little. Although he had taken care of these people, this incident had caused a significant impact.

Zhan Guiping said. “We cannot retrieve the newspaper, and the Discipline Inspection will issue an explanation for you at the right time. We cannot promise you any result.”

Dong Xuebing knew the seriousness of this incident after what Zhan Guiping said.

End of the day, it was still his fault. Huilan was right. It was only a matter of time before his previous deeds were exposed. He was too reckless in the past and created too many troubles. This was the result of his recklessness. However, he does not regret it, as he has done nothing wrong.

Dong Xuebing returned to his office.

Dong Xuebing switched on his PC and started reading the online comments.

It happened.

“Over one hundred million RMB worth of assets?!”

“F**k! How can he be a government leader?”

“That’s right. Our taxes had gone into his pocket.”

“How can he smash someone else’s car?! He is too arrogant. He must be taken to task!”

“Have you seen Dong Xuebing’s photograph on the news? He was wearing a Patek Philippe worth more than 2 million RMB!”

“I saw him driving before. He was driving a Porsche worth more than 4 million RMB.”

“Who isn’t the government doing anything against this corrupted official?! What are the City Government Leaders doing?!”

Some comments supported Dong Xuebing. However, the majority of the people were against him.

“If it were not for Director Dong’s warning, more people would have died during the earthquake. How can you all say that?”

“That’s right. I know Director Dong. He is a good official and has saved countless civilians.”

“Nan Qi Morning Papers had previously tried to tarnish Director Dong’s reputation. How can you all believe its articles?”

All the negative comments covered up these comments quickly.

“Are you all hired by him?”

“How can a government servant have more than one hundred million RMB worth of assets?!”

“So what if he had saved people? We know what he had done, but that does not mean he did not take our money. Those are our taxes!”

“How can the government not do anything after taking more than 100 million RMB?!”

Arrest Dong Xuebing!

Dismiss him!

More people demanded Dong Xuebing be taken to task.

Dong Xuebing read the forums and switched off his pc. He took a deep breath and felt frustrated and disappointed. When the civilians were in trouble, he was the first to help. He doesn’t care what his colleagues or leaders say about him, but he risked his life several times to save the civilians.

Dong Xuebing could not get mad. He felt disappointed and terrible.

Ring… ring… ring…. It was Xie Huilan.

Dong Xuebing answered slowly. “Hello.”

“Have you read the online comments?” Xie Huilan asked.

Dong Xuebing sighed. “Yes. I just read the forums.”

“Do you feel wronged?”

“Will you believe me if I say I am fine?”

“You should understand how these netizens think. They had a herd mentality and said whatever they wanted.”

“I know, but…. Never mind. I am fine.”

“I called the Discipline Inspection, and they say they will clarify for you. But it is not up to them if the civilians refuse to believe. This incident has spread in Fen Zhou City, and the impact will not be gone these few days. I am worried that the people you offended would use this opportunity to incite the civilians against you.”

“How?”

“I don’t know, but you must watch out.”

A few hours later.

Xie Huilan’s words came true.

It was about time to go home. Dong Xuebing was about to leave when he heard a commotion outside the Party Committee building. He thought nothing about it.

The next moment, Luo Haiting barged into the room. “Director! There’s a protest outside. They are demanding the Discipline Inspection to investigate you!”

Dong Xuebing’s eyes changed, and he walked to the windows. He saw dozens of civilians blocking the Party Committee building’s entrance. They were shouting and holding up placards. “Corrupted Dong Xuebing!”

Many people like Dong Xuebing….

But more people hate him….

Dong Xuebing could see some familiar faces in the protest. Some were the hooligans who built illegal shops in Nan Shan District. Some were the people he arrested when he was the Public Security Bureau Deputy Chief in Yan Tai County. The rest were people he had never met before.

Dong Xuebing was speechless. He was fearless against his enemies but could not do anything against civilians.
