This sentence placed special emphasis when mentioning the name "Guo Ruiliang."

People in the officialdom.

No word is wasted.

Nor does any exclamation appear out of thin air.

Zhou Feng paused for a moment.

Suddenly he realized something.

Chen Fang's intention was to shift all the responsibility to Guo Ruiliang, as long as Guo Ruiliang alone took the fall, Zhou Feng would naturally be in the clear.

He frowned.

He said, "Secretary Chen, it's easy to handle the matter with Guo Ruiliang, I'll find an opportunity to talk to him, but the key issue is with Qu Hongying, firstly, her whereabouts are currently unknown; secondly, we can't control what she'll say when the time comes."

Indeed.

The evidence is now in Qu Hongying's hands.

If we follow the normal procedure, Qu Hongying will definitely be interrogated by the higher authorities.

If she mentions Zhou Feng's name then.

Even if Guo Ruiliang can take the fall.

The situation will still spiral out of control.

Chen Fang smiled slightly.

He said, "Secretary Zhou, why is Qu Hongying making a fuss?"

Zhou Feng thought for a moment.

He said, "She wants the top position in Beihai Town."

"Since you already know the reason, then there's no need for further explanation, right?"

"This..."

Zhou Feng still hadn't responded.

Next to him, Deng Xingyong saw the clue.

He nudged Zhou Feng with his elbow and said, "Since Qu Hongying wants the top position in Beihai Town, just give it to her and the remaining issues will be easier to discuss, right?"

"But, her current whereabouts are unknown, finding her is already problematic, how can we discuss things with her?"

Zhou Feng asked.

Chen Fang smiled slightly.

He said, "The reason why Qu Hongying fled is because she's afraid of taking responsibility. Now that Guo Ruiliang is being dealt with, she will naturally get the signal. If we can't reach her, her family certainly can. Some words conveyed through them to her will surely bring her out. The outcome is in our hands, isn't that right, Secretary Zhou?"

Upon hearing this.

Zhou Feng suddenly saw the light.

A smile spread across his face.

He said, "Secretary Chen, you are absolutely right. I understand now, I'll start working on this right away."

After saying that.

He stood up to leave.

Chen Fang waved his hand and said, "Hold on."

Zhou Feng paused.

Asked, "Secretary Chen, is there anything else?"

Chen Fang hesitated and said, "For now, dealing with this matter this way is the best outcome. Guo Ruiliang's relationship with County Head Jiang is not ordinary, I'm just worried..."

Zhou Feng shivered.

Instantly he understood the unspoken implication in Chen Fang's words.

He said, "Secretary Chen, rest assured, County Head Jiang won't obstruct this matter. If there are any issues, I'll handle them."

"With Secretary Zhou's assurance, I'm relieved."

After Chen Fang finished speaking.

Zhou Feng nodded slightly and respectfully left.

Once he left.

The office was left with only Chen Fang and Organization Minister Deng Xingyong.

"Secretary Chen, do you have anything to discuss with me?"

Deng Xingyong asked.

Chen Fang cleared his throat.

He said, "Minister Deng, how old are you this year?"

"49."

"Do you have any desire to progress further?" Chen Fang asked.

Deng Xingyong became alert with excitement shining in his eyes, asked, "Secretary Chen... you mean..."

"Minister Deng, as you see, with Guo Ruiliang's incident, the position of Director of the People's Congress has naturally become vacant. I've been here in Guanghe County for a short time, observing around, and I think you're the suitable candidate to replace Guo Ruiliang. But I'm not sure if you personally have this aspiration?"

Chen Fang stating this was beyond Deng Xingyong's expectations.

It must be known, although he is a member of the county committee, he is merely at vice-director level.

The Director of the People's Congress is a different matter.

Clearly a director-level position.

One of the top leaders in Guanghe County's four-man team.

Comparable with County Party Secretary Chen Fang and County Head Jiang Tuo.

Strictly speaking, according to rankings, the Director of the People's Congress is ahead of the County Head.

Moreover, the People's Congress supervises the government, government leaders' appointments also go through the People's Congress, which is why Jiang Tuo is keen to protect Guo Ruiliang.

As long as Guo Ruiliang stands with Jiang Tuo.

Jiang Tuo can act with impunity in Guanghe County.

His face showed uncontrollable excitement.

However, it existed for only a moment.

Then it subsided.

He said, "Secretary Chen, of course, I want to progress, but the position of Director of the People's Congress is not something you can just appoint; the power of appointment lies above."

Deng Xingyong's words were to inform Chen Fang.

He's willing but powerless.

If higher authorities don't have this intention.

He couldn't do anything no matter how hard he tried.

Chen Fang smiled slightly.

He said, "Those are indeed the words, and the reasoning is correct, but given the current situation, higher authorities will definitely seek my opinion. If Minister Deng has this desire, I can try to communicate with them. Maybe it will work, maybe it won't, but we should at least give it a try, right?"

"Secretary Chen, then I must really thank you. Regardless of the outcome, I will always remember this favor. In the future, anything you need in Guanghe County, just let me know, and I, Deng Xingyong, will never refuse."

After speaking.

Deng Xingyong heartily patted his chest.

Chen Fang patted him on the shoulder.

He said, "Minister Deng, what's with those words, mutual assistance is how it should be, alright, you should go back early, I will discuss this matter in the committee meeting later and see other people's opinions."

"Alright, Secretary Chen, I'll leave first and prepare for the meeting."

Deng Xingyong said, rubbing his hands, somewhat excitedly.

After seeing Deng Xingyong leave.

Only then did Chen Fang take out his phone from his pocket.

He was surprised to find.

The phone was actually connected.

The conversation between Chen Fang, Zhou Feng, and Deng Xingyong had been heard word for word by the person on the other end of the call.

He lifted the phone to his ear.

He said, "Alright, they've all gone, you can come over now."

After he finished.

The call was disconnected.

After a few minutes.

The door was pushed open.

Zhang Shihua elegantly walked in.

The phone call just now between Chen Fang was always in touch with Zhang Shihua.

Today's Zhang Shihua clearly did not have her usual composure.

She seemed somewhat uneasy.

As if she had something on her mind.

"Are you satisfied with the current outcome?"

Chen Fang stared at her face and asked.

Zhang Shihua's lips moved, seemingly wanting to say something but hesitating.

Chen Fang relaxedly leaned against the sofa and said, "Feel free to speak, I'm here to listen to your opinion."

Zhang Shihua pursed her lips.

She said, "I can't understand your attitude towards Zhou Feng and Deng Xingyong, especially Zhou Feng. He and Guo Ruiliang bullied Hong Ying together, shouldn't he pay the price? Moreover, this is the best time to eliminate Zhou Feng."
