Life Reset: I’m the Master in the Officialdom

"Wentao! I've already made it crystal clear to you. I've completely vetoed your application for poverty alleviation funds for Bengang City! Even if you keep talking and pestering me, it won't help! Get the hell out of here! Otherwise, I'll have my secretary kick you out like a duck! Someone, come over here quickly and kick this ungrateful guy out!"

"And that guy, go downstairs and ask the security guards at the door if they still want to continue. How dare they let such a shady person into my office? If he's up to something sinister and criminal, I'm probably going to have to face death right now!"

"Get lost! Don't waste my precious time here. I don't have time to waste with you. I have an important meeting waiting for me to attend soon!"

After three consecutive roars, Li Peigen sat back in his chair angrily. He suddenly felt a little thirsty, so he picked up the teacup on the table and wanted to drink some tea to calm his anger.

However, just as he took a sip, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Huh?

Why does this teacup look so strange? It is not the one I usually use in the office!

Confused, he subconsciously looked up, but when he saw it, he was almost scared to death!

He saw that the three people in charge, Vice Governor Ding, Director of the Department of Agriculture Niu Jinbao, and Secretary Song Lixin, were staring at him with sullen faces and wide eyes, and their eyes looked as if they were about to spit fire!

In an instant, Li Peigen felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, with a chill running from his spine to the soles of his feet.

Then, his legs went limp and his whole body slumped down in the chair like a deflated ball, not daring to even breathe.

Li Peigen blinked hard and rubbed his eyes hard, as if trying to drive the scene before him out of the illusory dream.

However, when he looked at the people in front of him again, he couldn't help but be shocked. That's right! It was indeed these leaders.

At this time, an angry shout was heard: "Who gave you the power to veto Bengang City's poverty alleviation funds?" The person who spoke was Vice Governor Ding Cong.

Ding Cong was no fool; he knew the situation perfectly well. This special meeting on provincial poverty alleviation funds was specifically requested by Secretary Jian of the Provincial Party Committee, and all the attendees were staff members of the Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government.

But at this time, the secretary of the Bengang Municipal Party Committee was added in. What is the reason behind this?

Just now, Ding Cong saw Wen Tao and Song Lixin walking in front, and behind them was the Bengang City Party Committee Secretary, and the two were talking and laughing.

At that time, Ding Cong was puzzled and couldn't understand how the secretary of the provincial party secretary could be so close to such a young municipal party secretary.

It was not until this moment, when he witnessed everything happening before his eyes, that he suddenly woke up from his dream!

Could it be that Secretary Jian personally stepped in to support this young secretary of Bengang City?

But on second thought, even if it wasn't because of Secretary Jian, the close relationship between Song Lixin and Wentao alone was enough to make him do such a thing.

Li Peigen also saw the situation clearly. Could it be that Wentao had contacted Vice Governor Ding...???

"Vice Governor Ding, I specifically instructed Director Li about the notice for this meeting, but I didn't expect something to go wrong. What's even more outrageous is that Secretary Jian even specially invited Secretary Wentao from Bengang City to attend the meeting today. Look at what this has done, it's simply a joke! People who don't know the truth would probably think that the leading cadres of our provincial party committee usually do things in such an unreliable way!" Song Lixin said with a gloomy face and a cold tone.

Hearing this, Li Peigen was struck by lightning and stood there in a daze.

Arranged by the secretary himself?

At this moment, he finally woke up from his dream and spoke frantically, "Vice Governor Ding, Director Song, it really is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding... I absolutely did not mean that..."

However, having said that, he didn't know how to explain it clearly for a moment.

Li Peigen was sweating profusely on his forehead, his brain working like a high-speed machine, trying to come up with a reasonable excuse to resolve the embarrassing situation.

Unfortunately, the alcohol seemed to have completely paralyzed his brain, leaving him with a chaotic mind. The more anxious he became, the harder it was for him to form effective words. At this moment, he was filled with regret and wished he could slap himself in the face.

At this moment, Ding Cong could no longer suppress his anger. He slammed the table and shouted angrily, "What misunderstanding? What exactly is this misunderstanding? This is an important meeting presided over by the secretary himself, and you actually came to attend it drunk and unconscious? Fortunately, the secretary hasn't arrived yet. If he came and saw you like this, what would he think?"

"Deputy Governor Ding, in my opinion, Director Li is in such a state that he cannot continue to participate in today's meeting. You might as well send someone to escort him back and let him sober up. When the secretary arrives later, I will report to the secretary in person what Director Li has done today!" Song Lixin said firmly.

As soon as Song Lixin said this, the expressions of Ding Cong and Niu Jinbao changed drastically. Obviously, they had not expected Secretary Song to be so determined, and he seemed determined not to give up until the matter was known to everyone!

After hearing these words, Li Peigen felt as if he had suffered a severe blow. His face, originally flushed from drinking too much, changed color again, first showing a slightly dark blue hue, and then the dark blue became deeper and deeper, gradually turning almost black.

Seeing that Ding Cong and the others hadn't made any move yet, Song Lixin, who had quietly moved to the side at some point, had already made a phone call: "Secretary Jin, hello! We are currently in the conference room. Director Li from the Poverty Alleviation Office may have drunk a little too much. Please send two staff members to take him away to sober him up..."

Everyone present was shocked when they heard the content of the phone call.

Secretary Jin?

Could it be Jin Liangliang, deputy secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection?

Is this a small matter that needs to be reported to the Discipline Inspection Commission? Besides, isn't it normal to have a few drinks at noon?

It's just that Li Peigen was unlucky today, as he happened to be in the secretary's meeting...

Moreover, Secretary Song was so resolute for this young municipal Party Secretary. If he really wanted to report this to the Secretary...
