Chen Fang decided to probe his background.

He had read Ma Shizhen's file.

Ma Shizhen was 48 years old this year, and his career had almost entirely been in Guanghe County.

But based on the situation where he was mocked by Guo Ruiliang, it seemed he wasn't part of that clique.

Maybe he could extract some insider information from his mouth.

Thinking of this.

Chen Fang stood up.

He took Ma Shizhen's hand and said, "Ah, Director Ma, why are you always so polite? I asked you to sit, so sit! Can't you just chat with me?"

Chen Fang had said it to this extent.

Ma Shizhen naturally couldn't refuse.

After sitting down.

His hands were still placed on his knees.

His back was straight.

He looked quite constrained.

"Secretary Chen, whatever you want to know, just ask. I will tell you everything I know without reserve."

It was clear that Ma Shizhen was a bit nervous.

Chen Fang laughed and asked, "It's just a casual chat. How long has Director Ma been holding this County Party Secretary Director post?"

"Seven years now."

Ma Shizhen said.

Chen Fang nodded and asked, "Seven years, hasn't Director Ma thought about moving up?"

A bitter smile flashed on Ma Shizhen's face.

He said, "People like us, it's just a toiling life. We don't seek great wealth and promotions. It's good enough to do the job well and not get criticized by leaders."

When saying these words, Ma Shizhen appeared very natural.

So, it wasn't a work issue.

If it's not work, then it's family.

Chen Fang continued to ask, "So what does Director Ma's wife do?"

Ma Shizhen smiled and said, "What wife? My old partner used to be a nurse at the county hospital. Later, when climbing a mountain, she fell and hurt her leg, so she retired early. Now she just grows flowers and plants, passing time."

"And what about the child? How many children does Director Ma have?"

Chen Fang asked further.

Suddenly.

Ma Shizhen's expression became tense.

Like a guilty person, he glanced at Chen Fang.

Seeing that Chen Fang seemed to be just chatting, he secretly sighed with relief and said, "I only have one daughter. She is 24 this year. After graduating from college, she joined the county TV station as a director."

At that moment.

Chen Fang keenly sensed there was a problem.

He nodded quickly and said, "That's great! The TV station is a good place. After getting some experience there, she can think about transferring to the city TV station. The prospects are very bright."

"Yes, yes, thanks to Secretary Chen's good words."

An awkward smile appeared on Ma Shizhen's face.

Chen Fang could basically conclude that the problem lay with Ma Shizhen's daughter.

Otherwise, why would a County Party Secretary Office Director be so easily bullied?

He patted the armrest.

And said, "Alright, I won't delay your work anymore. You can go now. If I need anything, I'll call you."

Upon hearing this.

Ma Shizhen felt a great sense of relief.

He stood up quickly.

And said, "Okay, Secretary Chen, I'll get back to work then."

After Chen Fang waved his hand.

It was as if Ma Shizhen escaped, leaving Chen Fang's office quickly.

Once he left.

Yu Zhengchuan pushed the door open and came in.

Chen Fang said, "Go check on Ma Shizhen's daughter. She must have some issue. If we can help him solve this trouble, I think he can still be useful."

"With his lapdog-like personality, what help could he be to us?"

Yu Zhengchuan said disdainfully.

Chen Fang smiled.

And said, "Don't underestimate him. Not being corrupt is a skill. To climb step by step to the key position of County Party Secretary Office Director in Guanghe County, it shows that Ma Shizhen is not simple. Just follow my instructions. I believe there will be unexpected gains."

Although Yu Zhengchuan didn't believe it.

He still nodded and turned to leave.

Once he left.

Chen Fang stretched.

Stood up.

And directly walked out of the office.

Soon.

He appeared in the courtyard.

At this time.

In the window of another county government building, two pairs of eyes were watching his every move.

One was Jiang Tuo, and the other was Disciplinary Committee Secretary Zhou Feng.

"Where is he going? Could it be to see Qu Hongying?"

Zhou Feng asked curiously.

Jiang Tuo shook his head.

And said, "Around ten o'clock, our people went to the credit union. They didn't find Zheng Huan. I guess Chen Fang had arranged it in advance."

"He just got here. Does he already have such abilities?"

Zhou Feng asked.

Jiang Tuo shook his head again and said, "It's hard to say now. We can't underestimate someone who became County Party Secretary in their early thirties. You should find a few people to keep an eye on his every move. I want to know where he goes, whom he meets, and what he does."

"Okay, I'll arrange it immediately."

Zhou Feng nodded and picked up the phone to get busy.

At this moment, Chen Fang.

After pretending to wander around in the courtyard.

He headed straight for the gate.

Hailed a taxi.

As soon as he got in, he said to the driver, "Go to the County Party Guest House."

The taxi had just left.

A Toyota car parked across the road followed.

It seemed silent.

In fact, Chen Fang had already noticed.

After Zhang Shihua and the others pinned the kidnapping of Qu Hongying on Chen Fang, and Hua Limo took away Zheng Huan, Jiang Tuo would undoubtedly have people monitoring his every move.

So, these days, he couldn't do anything.

The only thing he could do was to make Jiang Tuo and his people let their guard down.

Only then could he act.

About ten minutes later.

Chen Fang got out of the car at the County Party Guest House.

There shouldn't be any reception events today.

There weren't many people at the entrance.

Chen Fang, with his hands behind his back, pretending to be vigilant, looked around and leisurely walked in.

As he disappeared.

Two people got out of the Toyota behind him and quietly followed him inside.

At the lobby's front desk.

Deputy Director He Meili was giving a talk to her subordinates.

She saw Chen Fang immediately.

And hurried over to greet him.

"Secretary Chen, what brings you here? Why didn't you notify me in advance? I could've come out to meet you."

The two exchanged glances.

Chen Fang made a gesture with his eyes.

He Meili understood.

Chen Fang laughed and said, "No need to trouble you, Comrade Meili. I was just wandering around and happened to end up here. Since it's nearly mealtime, I thought I'd come here for a bite. Comrade Meili won't turn me away, will you?"

"What are you saying? The guest house is here to serve leaders. Secretary Chen can come anytime."

After saying this.

She made an inviting gesture to Chen Fang.

Taking advantage of her turning back.

Chen Fang extended his hand and lightly patted He Meili's buttocks.

It was a completely teasing gesture.

Of course, this frivolous action did not escape the two monitors' eyes either.
