Qi Tongwei: Can I be young again?

It’s Qi Tongwei.

At the critical moment, he chose to disarm the attacker with his bare hands, supporting the mentally ill man's wrist with his left hand and gripping the blade with his right.

"Wang Hua!"

With a roar, Qi Tongwei used both hands to push the pregnant woman aside with his shoulders, and then delivered a powerful elbow strike to the mentally ill man's chin.

The mentally ill were caught off guard.

Before he could pull the knife out again, Wang Hua had already arrived swiftly and subdued both of his hands.

Other colleagues also arrived in time.

And so, the mental illness was brought under control, the pregnant woman was saved, and as for Qi Tongwei... he naturally ended up in the hospital again.

This time, the skin on his right palm was torn open, and the wound was so deep that the bone was visible.

The doctor wasn't surprised to see him.

"Captain Qi, our hospital doesn't have any special packages, otherwise I would have definitely gotten one for you," the nurse joked.

Qi Tongwei was also speechless.

After being reborn, it seems I've developed an inextricable connection with hospitals, constantly suffering from both minor and major injuries.

Fortunately, there is no danger to life.

Seven days later.

"Captain Qi, another second-class merit." Wang Hua scratched his head. "If you want to earn merit, you don't have to work so hard. That guy is mentally ill. If you hadn't caught that knife, you would have been dead."

"Wang Hua, do you think I just want to gain merit?" Qi Tongwei rolled his eyes at him. "Consciousness? Where is your party consciousness? In that situation, did I have a choice? You know he's mentally ill and could kill at any time! If I didn't bite the bullet and go for it, what would happen to the pregnant woman?"

"Forehead……"

"Stop it, you need to be more careful." After thinking for a moment, Qi Tongwei asked again, "By the way, did your blind date go well last time?"

"No." Wang Hua said, slightly disappointed.

"What, is it that they don't like you, or that you don't like them?"

“No, that girl is very nice, but her family said that if we want to get married, we have to buy a house in the county town first.” Wang Hua said helplessly, “You know me, I want to buy a house, but I don’t have enough money, so I’ll wait a bit longer.”

"You're thirty years old, what are you waiting for? To grow old and lose your beauty? Or to wait for that girl to find another good man?"

Wang Hua kept his head down and remained silent.

Like Qi Tongwei's family, his family was dirt poor. He had saved some money from his job, but he was still far from being able to buy a house.

How much more money is needed?

"About ten thousand."

"Damn, I thought it was much more." Qi Tongwei patted his shoulder. "I can lend you the money, but you have to sign an IOU. Buy the house and get married as soon as possible, so your Wang family line doesn't end."

"You have so much money?"

hum.

In the past six months, the stock market has been booming, and coupled with Zhang Xiaoyu's keen sense of finance, he has made a killing.

The couple now has nearly a million in their accounts, and achieving financial freedom is only a matter of time.

Ten thousand yuan is really not much for Qi Tongwei right now.

However, he doesn't help just anyone.

At the very least, it has to be something worth helping.

Wang Hua was a partner who had taken a bullet for Director Qi, and he risked his life to save Qi Tongwei more than once on his journey of overcoming obstacles...

(Looking for a free way to generate electricity with love, I would be extremely grateful!)

Chapter Fifty-Eight Transfer

"Uncle Qi, are you really going to lend me money? That's ten thousand yuan! You're not going to embezzle it, are you?"

"Screw you, don't lend it to me then."

"Borrow, borrow, borrow! Once I get married, I'll definitely repay you properly."

"Repayment? Forget it! Once you have money, even if you don't get married, you have to buy a house first, understand?"

"Definitely, definitely. When will the money arrive?"

"By this Sunday at the latest, by the way, write an IOU."

"No problem, Father Qi."

Thinking about buying a house, getting married, and about to reach the pinnacle of life, Wang Hua's mouth was practically stretched to the back of his head in a grin.

Seeing him happy, Qi Tongwei was also quite happy.

That's life. Having a devoted partner who will never leave you, and a brother who will be loyal to you... that's enough.

Not long after Wang Hua left, Secretary Chen, carrying a fruit basket, pushed open the ward door.

Upon seeing him, Qi Tongwei immediately got out of bed, after all, this guy represented the provincial party secretary.

"Director Chen."

"Tongwei, don't bother. We're all family here. I'm here on behalf of the province to offer you a simple word of comfort."

"It's nothing serious, you can be discharged in a week."

"What do you mean 'it's not a big deal'?" Secretary Chen sighed. "I heard from Director Li that you're a workaholic these days, you even dared to disarm a mentally ill person with your bare hands. This second-class merit almost cost you your life, was it worth it?"

"It's just my duty. I'm a policeman, and I don't think about that when I'm saving people."

"Hmm." Secretary Chen nodded. "You're both aware and capable. I'm here today for another matter I'd like to ask for your opinion on."

"Director Chen, please go ahead."

"Given your outstanding performance in the Municipal Criminal Investigation Detachment and this second-class merit award, the province held a standing committee meeting. The general idea was to let you leave the Ministry of Public Security and be promoted to a position with more room for development."

"What position?"

"Jinshan County, Deputy County Head!"

"Deputy Director?" Qi Tongwei was both delighted and surprised.

You have to understand, he's only been the head of the criminal investigation team for a few months, and he's about to be promoted again so quickly, which will probably make people envious.

But Secretary Chen didn't think so.

"Tongwei, your abilities are evident to all, and you have also received another second-class merit award. This is an achievement earned with your life. The deputy director level is not high."

"Is this Secretary Xiao's idea?"

"Hmm." Secretary Chen nodded again. "It's strange, every time Secretary Xiao wants to promote someone else, Secretary Liang and Secretary Zhao would hesitate for a bit, but when it comes to promoting you, they didn't say anything and just agreed with both hands."

Secretary Chen found it strange, but Qi Tongwei thought it was normal.

Because those two old guys aren't stupid, and they know who's behind them. If they dare to make things difficult for the normal promotion process, and word gets back to the Zhong family, it could be seen as suppression.

They dared to join forces to trip up Xiao Hongyun, but they wouldn't dare to act recklessly in front of the Zhong family.

"How about it? If you're satisfied with this offer, I'll give Secretary Xiao a heads-up."

"Director Chen, I have a question."

"explain."

"Why Jinshan County?" Qi Tongwei asked seriously. "If I remember correctly, apart from County Chief Fang Jue, the entire leadership team in Jinshan County is newly appointed, including County Party Secretary Li Dakang, who has been there for less than a year! I'm afraid I have some purpose in going there now?"

“That’s right! Jinshan County has the most frequent leadership changes. The main reason is inaction. County Chief Fang Jue is about to retire and just muddles along! The new leaders are almost all headed by Li Dakang. He’s practically all-powerful there. If you go, you might be able to give him a warning.”

"A warning?" Qi Tongwei smiled. "Even if I went there, I would only be a deputy director, while Li Dakang would be a director, the top leader. We didn't get along to begin with, and if I worked with him, he would definitely try to sabotage me everywhere."

"You don't need to worry about that, he wouldn't dare," Secretary Chen whispered. "On the day he takes office, I'll go with you, just to give him a warning."

"Besides, think about it, Jinshan County is also your hometown. It has been poor for so many years, don't you want it to be better?"

These words struck a chord with Qi Tongwei.

The love for one's hometown is a romantic feeling ingrained in the bones of every Chinese person.

Although Jinshan County is poor, Qi Tongwei was born and raised here. Now that there is an opportunity for development, he is naturally willing to do his part.

Furthermore, this is also an opportunity.

If one can still achieve merit after leaving the Ministry of Public Security, then a meteoric rise to power is not far off.

"Okay, when can I expect to see the transfer order?"

"Next month, that'll be perfect, by then your injury will be healed."

"Director Chen, may I make another request?"

"I said, as long as I can do it, I will do my best."

Qi Tongwei thought for a moment and then said, "In the past six months in the Criminal Investigation Division, I have indeed solved a lot of cases and achieved impressive results, but that is not my achievement alone. I think..."

The words were on the tip of my tongue, but I couldn't quite bring myself to say them.

Secretary Chen smiled.
