“I think the content of this whistleblower letter is unfounded. It is true that Wang Yongde is unwilling to relocate, and there are also several other households that are unwilling to relocate, but this is the villagers’ own will. I believe it has nothing to do with Deputy Mayor Wang. Deputy Mayor Wang would not be so low as to obstruct the construction of the county’s key project.”
Anyway, in all the time I've been in Meilin Village, I've never seen Deputy Mayor Wang go there, let alone him standing up for anyone. We're cousins, after all, a very distant relationship..."
As Li Xiuyuan spoke slowly, Wang Zhixing was so excited he almost couldn't stand up. Looking at Li Xiuyuan's face full of gratitude, he wanted to kneel down before him. He really hadn't expected Li Xiuyuan to say such a thing.
Given their relationship, it would have been good enough if Li Xiuyuan had simply said "I don't know" or "I'm not sure" and hadn't directly tried to sabotage him. Instead, Li Xiuyuan actually helped him explain.
Zhang Xingguo and Hou Peng, standing to the side, were even more astonished and surprised. They never expected that Li Xiuyuan would say such a thing and defend Wang Zhixing. Normally, regardless of whether Li Xiuyuan did it or not, given the relationship between Li Xiuyuan and Wang Zhixing, he would have at least tried to sabotage Wang Zhixing if given the opportunity.
Even if it were just a little ambiguous, why did they have to explain it to Wang Zhixing?
"So if you ask me, this whistleblower letter is pure fabrication and not credible." Li Xiuyuan concluded with a smile. It wasn't that he wanted to exonerate Wang Zhixing, but rather that this matter was impossible to investigate, and he couldn't possibly bring Wang Zhixing down with just a whistleblower letter.
On the contrary, as long as the Discipline Inspection Commission comes down once, their goal will be achieved.
Sometimes, taking action against someone doesn't require any substantial evidence. After all, the goal is to get rid of Wang Zhixing, not to send him to jail.
Moreover, one cannot ruin one's reputation because of Wang Zhixing.
After listening to Li Xiuyuan's explanation, Zeng Ming nodded and stood up. With Li Xiuyuan's words, the matter of the whistleblower letter was completely over, and Zeng Ming valued Li Xiuyuan even more.
Regardless of whether the report against Wang Zhixing is true or not, it is true that Wang Zhixing's cousin, Wang Yongde, did not sign the demolition contract. As for whether Wang Yongde was instructed by Wang Zhixing, whether there is evidence or not is another matter. Even without evidence, everyone can guess what's going on.
Is it really possible that Wang Yongde's refusal to sign the demolition contract has absolutely nothing to do with his cousin Wang Zhixing, who is the deputy town mayor? Who would believe that?
Li Xiuyuan could have used this incident to put pressure on Wang Zhixing, but he didn't. This is what it means to have a broad mind and a grand vision.
"Okay, we understand. Thank you for your cooperation, Xiuyuan." Zeng Ming shook hands with Li Xiuyuan, then looked at Zhang Xingguo and Hou Peng, shaking hands with each of them.
“Secretary Zhang, Mayor Hou, we have already understood the situation. Sorry to bother you,” Zeng Ming said.
Zhang Xingguo and Hou Peng waved their hands repeatedly.
"Secretary Zeng, you're too kind. It's nothing, it's my duty."
After finishing his business, Zeng Ming was about to go back when Zhang Xingguo repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay for lunch, but Zeng Ming declined, saying, "The leaders are also very concerned about this matter. I need to report to them when I get back. We can have lunch another time."
