Rebirth of Minister Qi

"Yes, Director, the overall plan has been prepared. The cadres from the Criminal Investigation Corps, Liuhe Branch, and Pujiang Branch will be rotated, and the heads of several important departments have been replaced..."

Chen Jin was about to give a detailed report but was interrupted by Qi Tongwei, as he didn't have the patience to listen.

“There’s no need to go into such detail. The heads of a few organizations told me that in addition to having matching abilities, people in important positions must pass the review of the disciplinary inspection team.

If I promote someone with an illness and something goes wrong at work, Secretary Zhao will be dissatisfied with me.

I don’t care about the rest, you know me.”

Chen Jin knew it, and nodded repeatedly after listening to what Qi Tongwei said. Qi Tongwei waved his hand to signal him to go out. On the other side, he turned on the computer again and started up Empire. Maybe he would be very busy every day and would not have much time to play.

"Go out and discuss more with Li Wei and the others."

Qi Tongwei was in a good mood at this time. Everything was going smoothly and his future plans were proceeding in an orderly manner. However, he did not expect that more than a month later, his mood would take a sharp turn for the worse.

.........

Time passed quickly. It was already January and the Lunar New Year was approaching. Qi Tongwei was cutting vegetables and cooking in his own "Tongwei Mansion". Of course, the house was not called this. This name was given by his son Huazai, who wrote these four big words crookedly in crayon. Qi Tongwei solemnly hung the sign next to the doorplate.

Hua Zai was running around in the villa, followed by Ye Biao and Gao Fangfang's son. The child was two years younger and was running a little unsteadily, unable to keep up.

"Hua Zai, slow down, your brother can't keep up, help him up."

The person who was speaking was of course his wife Zhang Ruonan. Zhang Ruonan was 34 years old at this time, but she had worked in the ivory tower for a long time, and her life was rich and she had almost no worries. She still looked as young as a girl in her twenties.

Gao Fangfang's family comes here to visit every year. The two families have a very good relationship and their children grow up together.

"Brother Qi, our Handong University of Political Science and Law will hold its centenary celebration next month. Many classmates and seniors will come back for a gathering. Will you come?

You are an outstanding graduate of our student union."

While helping with the cooking, Gao Fangfang talked to Qi Tongwei who was chopping and washing vegetables. Zhang Ruonan, who was standing nearby, pricked up her ears and started to encourage them.

"Go ahead, go ahead. There must be some first love there. It would be nice to catch up with them."

Qi Tongwei was sweating profusely after listening to this. His wife was not young anymore, but she still acted childishly. She had become a little calmer in the past two years, and her attacks with Iron Head Kung Fu had decreased a lot, probably because she was considering her son's gaze. But once she got angry, she would still come over and punch his chest without caring about anything.

Qi Tongwei quickly used a serious reason to refuse. What class reunion? It was very dangerous. What if the female classmates came to his door?

"As for me, I have no choice. I can't go just because I want to. I need your dad's approval before I can go.

Otherwise, I cannot leave Jiangzhou City without permission."

As he spoke, Qi Tongwei stole a glance at his wife, wondering if she was satisfied with the answer. What he said made a lot of sense, and Gao Fangfang nodded after hearing it.

"That's right, Brother Qi is now the director of the Public Security Bureau after all, so he must go through a very complicated process when he goes to other places.

It’s not like our private enterprise.”

It is worth mentioning that Gao Fangfang did not join the system after graduation. She personally felt that it was too restrictive. She founded an investment company in Jiangzhou. Ye Biao was a talent in economics, and his casual advice was enough for Gao Fangfang to make a fortune without having to work hard. So she did not know what level of official Qi Tongwei was, she just knew that he was a policeman.

“But it’s a pity you didn’t come.

I looked at the list of famous graduates of our school. The most promising ones in our class of ten or so were Brother Qi and a few others, about five of them. All of them became deputy mayors or municipal party committee secretaries when they were only in their thirties.

There are also some businesses that are quite large, and I have done business with them several times.”

Qi Tongwei laughed when he heard this. Although he and the other four people had the word "city" in their titles, including deputy mayors, mayors and municipal party secretaries, the highest position among the four was only a deputy mayor of a prefecture-level city, while the municipal party secretary was of a county-level city.

The four of them were no match for Qi Tongwei. The deputy mayor of the municipality of Jiangzhou was not someone that anyone could mess with. He was too lazy to go to these gatherings, to show off in front of his classmates or to hear them flatter him? All that was meaningless.

After becoming a senior cadre, a natural gap was created between him and his previous circle of friends, just like the party school classmate who became the head of the Dragon Group. If his classmates asked Qi Tongwei for his phone number, they would most likely get a public number with Jiangzhou area code plus 0013.

This number is public in the city and all cadres know it. It is written in the address book. However, when a call comes in, it is answered by one of the three secretaries. Only useful calls will be filtered to Qi Tongwei.

Leaders of the same level all call the black or red phone numbers on the table. Qi Tongwei's mobile phone can also transfer these calls, so he can answer the calls without having to sit in the office.

Private friends or family will call a private number that only a very few people know.

"Forget it, I won't go and cause trouble. My old classmates are embarrassed to see me now.

I met Bai Bing, my good roommate, when I went to Handong to work as deputy director. We had an awkward conversation and the relationship we had could never go back to the way it was back then.

Chen Hai, a senior who was several years older than you, now works in our Public Security Bureau and is my subordinate.

If I go over there, they’ll be embarrassed.”

As he spoke, Zhang Ruonan walked to the stove with a plate of dumplings and said something.

"That's a pity, I won't be able to see my first love.

I heard her name is Chen Yang, and she seems to be the sister of Chen Hai."

Gao Fangfang wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. She knew who Qi Tongwei's first love was. She also heard that Qi Tongwei applied to be transferred to Beijing in order to be with her. This matter caused a sensation in Handong University of Political Science and Law, and Qi Tongwei was also known as the spokesperson of deep affection.

However, the news that Qi Tongwei got married in Beijing, but the person he married was not Chen Yang, once again shocked Gao Fangfang and her group of gossipy schoolmates, and Qi Tongwei's affectionate personality collapsed in an instant.

Qi Tongwei kept a lot of letters in his courtyard home. One time, Zhang Ruonan opened one of the letters and saw the name of her first love. During that time, Qi Tongwei could only live in the side room for a few days.
