Chapter 1576: Identifying himself

What?

Are you inspecting too?

What are you inspecting?

After hearing Dong Xuebing's words, the comrades in Xiaxing City were sweating even more.

"Um"

"Mr. Dong."

"You, please, say a few less words."

Several cadres from Xiaxing City around him hurriedly advised him in a low voice.

But Dong Xuebing didn't have this self-awareness, and he was very confident.

The people from the provincial government also couldn't help but laugh or sigh. They secretly thought that this person was too ignorant. What kind of status do you have? At most, you're just a family member of a cadre. Even if you put it nicely, you're just considered a family member of a mid-to-high-level cadre. What kind of position is this? What kind of official position is this? You're here to inspect? What are you inspecting? Even if you're a family member, your wife, Secretary Xie, wouldn't dare to say "inspect" in front of provincial cadres. Now, everyone didn't know how to evaluate Dong Xuebing. He dares to say anything. Before speaking, could you please use your brain? They thought in their hearts that Secretary Xie, being such a beautiful mid-to-high-level leader, would marry such a clueless husband.

Mayor Xia whispered, "Secretary."

Xie Huilan's mouth curled up slightly, "It's okay."

Mayor Xia couldn't help but feel helpless. If this wasn't considered a problem, then what is? He didn't understand why Xie Huilan had such a reaction. According to common sense, anyone who could sit in her position at such a young age was supposed to be very shrewd. Not to mention, she was a woman. If she didn't have much more ability and competence than others, she wouldn't have been arranged to be the secretary of the City Party Committee. However, in the days since Xie Huilan took office, it was proved that this woman had a strong wrist and rich political experience. However, the more this happened, the more Mayor Xia became puzzled. Could you at least stop your husband? Why didn't you say a word? Aren't you giving the provincial leaders an excuse to hold against you? Aren't you causing trouble for yourself? What exactly do you mean?

Many City leaders in Xiaxing City stared wide-eyed and sweating, feeling like a disaster was imminent. Secretary Xie's husband was too daring to speak. Sister Gao, who was far away, slapped her forehead. The female clerk who had just taken Dong Xuebing upstairs in the elevator also looked shocked. There were many other officials with similar expressions, all looking down from upstairs. Almost everyone was looking at Dong Xuebing in the center with an incredulous look.

Dong Xuebing became the focus of the whole scene.

He was such a person. Although he was not outstanding in appearance, he was not the kind of person who would be lost in the crowd. On the contrary, wherever he went, he would shine brightly. No matter what he said or did, Dong Xuebing could always hold everyone's attention. Those who knew him thought he was too good at stirring up trouble. However, Dong Xuebing attributed this to his charm.

Deputy Governor Jia stared at Dong Xuebing's eyes.

Dong Xuebing also stared at them without blinking.

Seeing Dong Xuebing repeatedly provoking the provincial authorities, Director Zhou's anger surged even more. "Comrade Xie Huilan," he no longer called her Secretary Xie; his tone was very harsh. Director Zhou and many officials in the province were getting angry. Very angry.

Xie Huilan nodded, "I'm listening."

Director Zhou said to her, "Your family member is disturbing our work and inspection. I'll ask again how you plan to handle this matter."

Xie Huilan shrugged, "I've said it before, I can't handle it."

Asked three times, Xie Huilan answered three times, all with the same answer.

Mayor Xia pondered carefully and listened to some hints in Secretary Xie's words. She didn't say she wouldn't handle it or take care of it; she said she couldn't handle it. Mayor Xia also wondered for a moment why she said she couldn't handle it.

But Director Zhou didn't catch on. He smelled like the Secretary of the Xiaxing City Committee had decided to shield and tolerate her husband. Director Zhou was furious. "The province instructed this inspection. Your husband's behavior has seriously affected our work, and you've heard the open accusations and the words with hints of insult. Don't you have anything to say about this?"

Xie Huilan shook her head slightly. "Not at the moment."

The Comrades from the local city are challenging the province. The Province leaders have never encountered such a thing.

Director Zhou, furious to the extreme, laughed in anger. Pointing at Xie Huilan, he said, "Alright."

Dong Xuebing was right next to his wife, and as soon as he saw it, he slapped away Director Zhou's hand, and his face turned cold. "What were you saying just now? I scolded you all, Director Zhou? I'm apprehensive about you. How did I not know that I was cursing? Did I use any swear words in all the words I just said? How did you hear that and then accuse me? I saw each provincial leader showing contempt and insults towards local cadres. For example, what you just did with your finger, leading by example, how can provincial cadres disrespect local cadres like that? Pardon my ignorance, but this is the first time I've heard of such a rule. I now have reason to believe that your attitude towards this inspection is problematic."

Director Zhou didn't bother to argue with him and said to Xie Huilan, "Alright, so this is the way you work in Xiaxing City, even the province is not in your eyes anymore."

Giving you face…

Still daring to nag at my wife…

Dong Xuebing looked at him. "If you have something to say, say it to me."

Director Zhou said coldly, "You have no right to speak here."

"I'm sorry." Dong Xuebing stared back at him. "I do."

A cadre from the provincial inspection team shouted, "As a family member, what qualifications do you have to speak here? Ignoring you isn't enough, is it?"

Another person said, "Deputy Governor Jia, Director Zhou, let the comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission handle this." After speaking, he looked at a young man in his thirties beside him.

Others also glanced at him.

Many departments participated in this inspection, naturally including personnel from the provincial Discipline Inspection Commission.

When the young man heard this, he looked coldly at Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan and said to the provincial leaders, "I have recorded it and will report it to the provincial Discipline Inspection Commission immediately."

The provincial Discipline Inspection Commission.

The people from Xiaxing City changed their colors when they heard this. They didn't expect the other party to directly involve the Discipline Inspection Commission in handling it. But thinking about it, it wasn't surprising. It would be strange if this matter didn't escalate to the Discipline Inspection Commission. After all, Secretary Xie had been overly protective. Not only did she not apologize for her husband, but she also kept condoning him, not even saying a word to stop him, allowing her husband to obstruct official business and even scolding provincial cadres. This situation was a bit bad. Even if the province warned Secretary Xie within the party or suspended her duties, it wouldn't be too much. Your husband may not be from Xiaxing City, but he is still your family member. If you ignore it, you have a joint responsibility that must be addressed.

Many people in Xiaxing City were worried and looked at the Secretary of the City Party Committee. Mayor Xia and several City leaders also glanced at Xie Huilan, wanting to see what she would say. At this time, if she remained silent, it would be difficult for everyone. But what made everyone speechless was that Secretary Xie was standing there with a calm face, not saying anything, as if nothing was related to her, extremely calm.

Everyone couldn't understand how Secretary Xie could be so politically immature.

"It's about to be reported to the provincial Discipline Inspection Commission, and you're still so calm. What are you planning to do?"

The young man from the provincial Discipline Inspection Commission was also getting angry. "Deputy Governor Jia, the problem this time is indeed quite serious. I'll report it to the Discipline Inspection Commission. As for the specific handling…"

But Dong Xuebing interrupted him at this moment. "How are you going to report it?"

The young man looked at him. "Secretary Xie Huilan of Xiaxing City condones her family member's obstruction of the provincial comrades' inspection and ignores the problem."

Dong Xuebing interjected, "I advise you not to report it. There's no need. I don't think I obstructed your inspection and work."

"You've been babbling for nearly twenty minutes, monopolizing the conversation and scolding the provincial leaders. Do you call that not obstructing official business? You've been causing trouble all this time, and you're still being stubborn. You won't shed a tear until you see the coffin, will you?"

The young man from the Discipline Inspection Commission said coldly, "You don't need to explain to me. Prepare to be contacted by the comrades from the provincial Discipline Inspection Commission."

Dong Xuebing smiled. "If you don't come to me, I'll come to you. I just said it's quite a coincidence that you're here for an inspection, and so am I."

Still, talking like that?

What on earth are you inspecting as a family member?

Director Zhou and several provincial cadres were about to shout at him. Their last bit of patience had been worn thin by Dong Xuebing.

But the next moment, Dong Xuebing reached into his pocket. Just as Director Zhou was about to reprimand him, Dong Xuebing pulled out a black work permit, held one side with his hand, and flicked it slightly, opening it up in front of everyone. "Dong Xuebing, the Eighth Supervisory Office of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection inspector, is here to investigate some recent situations and issues in Jiangnan Province as commissioned by the higher-ups."

What?

Central Commission for Discipline Inspection?

The Eighth Office of the Central Discipline Inspection Commission, managing the Jiangnan Province?

And still an inspector?

Everyone present from the province was dumbfounded.

People from Xiaxing City seemed to have a cold breeze blowing into their lungs.

Whether they were watching the commotion upstairs or in the courtyard downstairs, everyone was stunned.

Director Zhou almost spat out blood, and the young man from the provincial Discipline Inspection Commission broke out in a cold sweat, his hands trembling.

Damn it.

You really came to inspect.

When the people from the province saw this, many of them were on the verge of cursing. You're a supervisor from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. Why didn't you say so earlier? Only now did everyone understand why Secretary Xie Huilan of Xiaxing City remained indifferent from start to finish and why she said she couldn't handle her husband's affairs.

Indeed, she couldn't handle it.

How could a City party secretary handle a mid-level cadre from the Central Discipline Inspection Commission, which oversees their province? Instead, it seemed her husband could handle them.
