Officialdom: After My Demotion, My Powerful Background Was Exposed

When his superior retired, Li Lin, as his secretary, was implicated and demoted to an indefinite secondment as deputy township head in a remote rural town.

With no backing, Li Lin's polit...

Chapter 344 The only one who can save you is yourself

With the mayor as his backer, who would dare to mess with him?

Anyway, Ye Xiaotao is self-aware. With his insignificant connections, Li Lin probably doesn't take him seriously at all.

Think about Lu Yu Ming. His Lu family had been deeply rooted in Shannan County for many years, and they had deep roots. But in the end, weren't they still knocked down by Li Lin's rake?

If Li Lin really wanted to make things difficult for Ye Xiaotao, he would probably have to kneel down at Li Lin's feet within two rounds!

As a human being, you should know when to advance and when to retreat, and only by enduring grievances can you achieve perfection!

Ye Xiaotao calmed down and said to Liu Rulin with a smile, "Don't listen to what people outside say. County Magistrate Li Lin and I just have some disagreements on work, and there is no personal conflict between us."

"Oh, that's good. When I get to the approval hall, I'll find a chance to invite County Magistrate Li Lin to have a seat. Secretary Ye, you can also go over to support me, hehe." Liu Rulin said with a smile.

"Of course. You came from Kaoshan Town. As your old colleague and squad leader, I will support you unconditionally wherever you go," said Ye Xiaotao.

"Then it's settled. It's getting late. Secretary Ye, please go ahead and do your work. I'll go to the cafeteria to see what delicious dishes are cooked tonight... hehe..."

Liu Rulin walked out of Ye Xiaotao's office with a smile on his face.

It had been a whole day, and he hadn't drunk a drop of alcohol. He had already felt the urge to drink... After coming out of Ye Xiaotao's office, he couldn't wait to rush to the government cafeteria and told the cook, "Cut me half a pound of pork head meat, some peanuts, and bring me the wine I put here..."

The cook agreed, and after Liu Rulin went upstairs to the private room, he looked up at the clock. It was not even five o'clock, and they were already drinking?

The cook shook his head helplessly, walked into the back kitchen, took out a piece of pork head from the refrigerator, cut it into slices, grabbed a handful of peanuts, put them on a plate, and sent it to Liu Rulin.

When the food and wine were served, Liu Rulin was drooling with greed... He sent the cook away, poured himself two taels of wine, drank half a cup in one gulp, and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that life was so beautiful at this moment...

He thought, "When I take charge of the approval hall and manage so many window units, I will definitely have endless good wine to drink every day...hahaha..."

As a party member and cadre, he was not thinking about how to manage the unit he was responsible for, but was thinking about how to exploit employees and how to demand benefits from his subordinates.

At this time, the Discipline Inspection Secretary of Kaoshan Town received a notice from the County Discipline Inspection Commission, asking them to notify Liu Rulin to wait in the village and ask questions!

The disciplinary inspection secretary quickly found Ye Xiaotao and told him the news.

Ye Xiaotao was startled and frowned...

At the critical moment when Liu Rulin was about to be promoted and appointed, why did the county discipline inspection commission look for him?

Ten minutes later, comrades from the county discipline inspection commission rushed over and when they saw Ye Xiaotao, they asked him where Liu Rulin was.

Ye Xiaotao took out a good cigarette and handed it to the comrade from the Commission for Discipline Inspection, then asked with a smile, "Excuse me, I wonder what our County Commission for Discipline Inspection wants to see Deputy Secretary Liu about?"

Facing Ye Xiaotao's questioning, the comrades from the county discipline inspection commission did not respond at all, but continued to urge him, "Secretary Ye, hurry up and call Liu Rulin over, and don't ask any more questions."

When Ye Xiaotao saw the tough attitude of these people, he immediately felt that something was wrong. He knew that Liu Rulin might have committed something and was being taken away by the county discipline inspection commission for investigation!

Even if he wanted to block it for this old subordinate, how could he do it? He might even get himself involved.

He immediately called Liu Rulin and ordered him mercilessly, "Old Liu, come to my office right now!"

Liu Rulin had already drunk half a bottle of wine and was gradually getting excited. When he heard Ye Xiaotao calling him to his office, he thought there might be news about his promotion. He was so happy that he quickly tightened the bottle, wiped his mouth and walked towards Ye Xiaotao's office.

Along the way, he was still imagining how glorious it would be to become the director of the approval hall management office...

When he pushed open Ye Xiaotao's office door with high spirits, he was stunned to see several strangers in uniform sitting in the room.

He walked into the room with a smile on his face, his mouth full of alcohol, and asked Ye Xiaotao with a joking face, "Secretary Ye, are these all your friends?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of disciplinary inspectors stood up one after another, stood in front of him, showed him their work credentials, and said to him seriously, "Liu Rulin, you are suspected of violating laws and disciplines. Come with us and explain your problems clearly!"

Liu Rulin was dumbfounded. He never thought that one day he would be taken away by the Discipline Inspection Commission in this way...

He shouted in panic, "Comrade, are you mistaken? I have been working hard and have never made any mistakes!"

The comrade from the Discipline Inspection Commission sneered and said, "It's not even time to get off work yet and you're already drunk. Isn't this a violation of discipline? Don't quibble. Cooperate with us, or we'll take compulsory measures!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two disciplinary inspection cadres stood on both sides of Liu Rulin, one on the left and one on the right. It was not difficult to guess from their cold eyes that if Liu Rulin showed the slightest resistance, he would definitely be forcibly taken away!

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Liu Rulin felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave, his whole body was icy cold...

He trembled and tried his best to look at Ye Xiaotao for help, but what he got in response was indifference and avoidance...

He looked ashen, knowing full well that he could not stand up to the investigation of the Commission for Discipline Inspection...

Now, let alone promotion, it’s hard to say whether you can keep your public office!
