Neither Yang Kangji nor the others noticed the change in Director Huang's expression.
Wang Zhenbo said, "Hey, these little brats don't have eyes and hit Director Yang."
"Oh?" Director Huang looked at Yang Kangji and indeed saw that his face was a bit swollen.
Yang Kangji said lightly, "It's a minor issue, no need to trouble Director Huang about it."
Ever since he learned Mayor Jiang might abandon him, he had been less respectful towards Director Huang.
After all, he could still rely on Zheng Bihui.
Moreover, Zheng Bihui had mentioned he would contact another leader for him.
Director Huang noticed all these reactions.
This attitude made Director Huang displeased, yet he also admired Song Guanchao somewhat.
Song Guanchao's analysis was correct; this Yang Kangji was probably completely colluding with Zheng Bihui now.
He planned to abandon Mayor Jiang's ship and switch to Zheng Bihui's.
He sneered inwardly, this bastard, he's quick with his little moves.
"A minor issue?"
Director Huang snorted coldly, "I don't think this is a minor issue."
Wang Zhenbo hurriedly said, "Director Huang, it really is a minor issue, don't worry, I can handle it here."
"Are you sure you can handle it?"
Director Huang smiled without mirth, "Mr. Wang, don't blame me for not warning you, it's best if you don't get involved in this matter."
"Huh?" It was only then that Wang Zhenbo realized Director Huang seemed to have a hidden meaning.
He looked at Director Huang, then at Yang Kangji, suddenly realizing that there seemed to be a conflict between these two directors?
Yang Kangji said, "Mr. Wang, why are you standing there? Have them pin down that little bastard, I'll slap his face until it's ruined today!"
"Ah, okay..." Wang Zhenbo said, "Go, bring him over."
The security was about to make a move again when Director Huang shouted, "Who's allowing you to make a move?"
The security was at a loss, looking at Wang Zhenbo for instructions.
Wang Zhenbo looked towards Yang Kangji, wondering what on earth was going on between these two?
Yang Kangji was furious inside; he squinted his eyes, "Director Huang, what do you mean?"
He pointed at his own face, "I've been beaten, see? Now I'll hit back, is there a problem?"
"Hit back?" Director Huang snorted, "You brought this trouble upon yourself, and got beaten for nothing! What, do you think you can do as you please just because you're a vice-director at the National Development and Reform Commission?"
"Do you know what behavior this is? This is tarnishing the reputation of public servants, discrediting our commission!"
"Apologize to this gentleman immediately!"
Yang Kangji was so angry his face was trembling and shouted, "Huang Qinzhen, you're deliberately targeting me, aren't you?"
Director Huang snorted lightly, "Targeting you? You're overthinking; I'm doing this for your own good."
"For my own good?"
Yang Kangji, his anger about to burst through, could no longer hold back and cursed, "Huang Qinzhen, I'll call you a director because you are one. Do you really think you're something? You think the commission is just yours?"
"The planning and economic departments are under me, you want to have all the power, I'll tell you, that's impossible!"
Wang Zhenbo was already dumbfounded.
What, what is going on?
Why are they arguing?
Moreover, it looks like these two directors have reached the point of a power struggle.
Director Huang was still calm, pulling out his phone in front of them, and found Mayor Jiang's number.
"Yang Kangji, apologize to this gentleman immediately and get out as far as you can. Or I'll have Mayor Jiang come and talk to you."
Yang Kangji, furious, "You're using Mayor Jiang to pressure me? You think I'm afraid of him? Damn it! Call, call now, have him come over!"
Director Huang deeply looked at him, "Yang Kangji, I've given you a chance, you don't cherish it, it's not that I'm being unkind."
Saying that, he dialed Jiang Yuan's number and walked out of the room.
"Hello, Mayor Jiang, there's a bit of a situation here..."
Seeing that Director Huang had really called Mayor Jiang, Yang Kangji laughed angrily and also took out his phone to call Zheng Bihui.
"Mayor Zheng..."
Wang Zhenbo stood where he was, watching the two of them respectively contact the mayor and the Deputy Mayor, and suddenly felt like cursing.
These two somehow started arguing and then each called for backup.
I'm stuck in the middle of this storm, what am I supposed to do?
Wang Zhenbo was extremely anxious.
Leaving wasn't an option, and staying wasn't either.
The key was, he couldn't afford to offend either side.
If it were just a conflict between Yang Kangji and Director Huang, he'd definitely side with Director Huang.
After all, Director Huang was the primary authority.
But behind Yang Kangji was Mayor Zheng.
Soon, both sides finished their calls.
Li He and the others watched them argue, finding it rather interesting.
Director Huang: "Mayor Jiang is coming over, Yang Kangji, you better fend for yourself this time."
Yang Kangji snorted, "Mayor Zheng is also on his way, let's see what you do to me."
He was already abandoned by Mayor Jiang, so it was good to rip things open now and not have to pretend anymore.
At the same time letting Mayor Jiang know that he was now with Mayor Zheng.
If he wanted to act against him, he had to consider Mayor Zheng's side.
In this way, his position as vice director would be more secure.
Moreover, he wouldn't have to look at Director Huang's face anymore.
His position as second-in-command at the commission could become completely independent.
The important departments he managed would come under his complete control.
Director Huang, the main authority, wouldn't be able to interfere.
Thinking about this, Yang Kangji felt quite pleased.
"I say, do you guys have business or not?"
Li He's voice broke the silence, "If not, get out, don't disturb our singing."
Then he looked at the hall manager, "I'll be complaining about you later."
Manager Zhang chuckled and ignored it.
Wang Zhenbo then scolded, "Shut up, this isn't your place to speak!"
This little brat, can't he see there's something serious going on here?
Li He laughed, "Quite a temper, I haven't had many people talk to me like that. Fine, I've remembered you."
Wang Zhenbo glared at him, if Director Huang weren't still here, he would have slapped him by now, teaching this kid a lesson.
Director Huang forced a smile, "Sorry, we might delay a bit here."
Li He looked him up and down and asked, "Are you the director at the National Development and Reform Commission?"
"Yes."
"You don't seem to be doing well as a director, you can't even suppress a subordinate. At this rate, you'll be sidelined sooner or later."
Director Huang looked embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
Yang Kangji sneered, "Huang Qinzhen, acting all polite now?"
Director Huang acted like he didn't hear him, thinking to himself that soon enough, he would know why he was pretending.
He felt a bit fortunate.
Fortunate that he arrived early.
From this Mr. Li's expression, although he might not be fond of him, he wasn't disliked either.
He looked at Yang Kangji with eyes like looking at a dead man.
This fool.
Offending the son of the head of Yanjing's National Development and Reform Commission, no one in Lingjiang politics would dare to use him in the future.
Amidst his schadenfreude, Director Huang also had some doubts.
How did Song Guanchao foresee that Yang Kangji would conflict with this young master?
It was as if it was all arranged, simply incredible.
