Zhang Zhongping was in his forties, with an elegant demeanor and many years of experience in the agency. He could tell at a glance that Riemann was protecting Jian Xiaoxing.
He couldn't rashly make things difficult for Li Weihong, who was in a wheelchair, so he could only handle his work impartially without showing any emotion.
Unexpectedly, Li Weihong's expression tensed up, and the tense aura he had just displayed immediately vanished like a deflated balloon.
She pretended to be calm and asked, "Are you the person in charge here? Why are you meddling in my business?"
His attitude was still nonchalant and arrogant.
Zhang Zhongping smiled instead of getting angry: "Comrade, do you need me to show you my work ID? Buying a house is such a serious matter, how can it be called a trivial matter? Please cooperate."
An old fox like him could tell her strength just by looking at her bluffing.
Li Weihong was a little panicked now. She held her forehead with her hand and started to complain about being dizzy. She whispered to the nurse who was pushing her, "Can't you see I'm dizzy? Why don't you push me away?"
The nurse was already fed up with her, so she rushed out pushing the wheelchair. Her movements were a bit rough, causing Li Weihong's butt to hurt.
Jian Xiaoxing and Li Man came to the wheelchair one after another, blocking her way: "What's wrong? Didn't you want to grab a room just now? Why are you leaving now? Didn't you choose a room card? Are you feeling guilty?"
Riemann's voice was so loud that the crowd that had just been dispersed gathered together again.
I can come in and choose a house without a house selection card. Is this a backdoor?
In fact, things like using backdoors can never be prevented. Who can blame them for having strong backing?
But no one has ever seen someone use the back door so high-profile.
Everyone has heard that Li Weihong is the daughter of a powerful official in the main factory. Today, we want to see if her father has taken advantage of his position to gain benefits.
This time, Zhang Zhongping did not drive the crowd away, but still smiled and reached out to Li Weihong to ask for the room number.
Li Weihong put her hands on the wheels of the wheelchair, her fingers digging into the rubber. She really shot herself in the foot. She didn't have any house selection card. It was the person in charge here who asked her to come and choose a house. He also told her on the phone not to make it public and just tell him after she chose a house.
Dozens of eyes turned to look at Li Weihong, making her blush. She turned her eyes again and again, and finally spoke to Zhang Zhongping:
"My father paid for me. I just picked the room. If you don't believe me, call him!"
"Comrade, since you have paid the money, you should have a room selection card. You'd better take it out!" Zhang Zhongping was in charge of the supervision work and was not afraid of the person behind her at all.
Who doesn’t have a backer?
The crowd also laughed and sneered: "Take it out! Are you trying to be special?"
Li Weihong, whose hair was permed into curls, was almost mad with anger. She threatened to call her father in person and rolled her wheelchair straight to the registration office.
The nurse behind her really wouldn't bother to care about her if it weren't for her professional instinct. She pushed the wheelchair with her hands but didn't use much effort.
When Li Weihong arrived at the registration office, sweat was already on his forehead.
There was a red telephone here, and she dialed her home number without asking.
Li Weimin should not be at work on weekends.
However, it was Song Qianqian who answered the phone at home, and she said that Li Weimin was not at home.
Li Weihong called Li Weimin's office again, but the line was busy.
The crowd that had gathered around her was originally holding their breath, waiting for her to make a phone call. After trying several times but failing to get through, they all started making disdainful and sarcastic noises.
Zhang Zhongping also began to get impatient. "Comrade, what on earth do you want to do? Don't waste everyone's time, let's go!"
Li Weihong glared at him and stubbornly dialed another number. This time, a nervous voice came over the line: "Who is it?"
Li Weihong sneered in her heart. Li Weimin was now with his concubine, so it seemed that things were not that bad.
"Dad, it's me. I was at the welfare housing preparation office choosing a house, but they said I didn't have a house selection card and wouldn't let me choose!"
As soon as Li Weihong finished speaking, the other end of the phone became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Li Weimin's mind was racing, wondering how to deal with this situation.
He had already informed the relevant personnel, and the person in charge of the preparatory office should also be aware of the situation. It was probably because the situation was a little out of control that Li Weihong called him.
He hated Li Weihong for calling him without considering the seriousness of the matter, but due to his current situation, he had to help her deal with the situation.
"Honghong, don't worry, I will explain everything clearly to their person in charge." Li Weimin finally said.
Li Weihong hung up the phone triumphantly, crossed his arms, and waited calmly.
The person in charge standing nearby had already broken out in a cold sweat after listening to Li Weihong's phone call.
The leaders of the Chemical Plant were well aware of their secret operations, but the supervisors from the district were there to supervise and put an end to this kind of behavior. If Zhang Zhongping really knew about it, he would have to resign as the person in charge, and the chemical plant would also be punished.
He was worried about how his superiors would deal with this situation, when the phone suddenly rang.
His hand trembled slightly as he picked up the phone. The caller was Li Weimin.
The two men exchanged polite greetings, and the expression on the person in charge's face gradually relaxed.
Li Weihong looked at his expression and knew that Li Weimin was helping her solve the problem.
Sure enough, the person in charge explained to Zhang Zhongping: "Minister Zhang, regarding Comrade Li Weihong's house purchase, I didn't do my job well. Her father has already paid the money, and we forgot to select a house number for her. I will ask someone to send it to her right away!"
Li Weihong looked smug as he glanced at everyone with disdain, his expression clearly saying, "You bunch of country bumpkins, who said I didn't choose a house number?"
It’s good to have a powerful father. Things like this can be solved with just one phone call.
However, when Li Weihong got the room selection card, she was a little dumbfounded.
"Why is it a 40-square-meter room? I want 80 square meters!" she screamed angrily.
The person in charge smiled broadly and said, "Comrade, your father paid for 40 square meters, no mistake. Go and choose a house quickly. There are not many houses of 40 square meters left!"
Just now, Li Weimin promised him on the phone that he would pay him another 3,200 yuan. Together with the 2,000 yuan he paid before, the money would be just enough to buy a 40-square-meter house.
Amidst the laughter of the crowd, Li Weihong endured the humiliation and chose a small house of 40 square meters.
If she left in shame and anger, she might even lose her little house!
Jian Xiaoxing and Li Man witnessed Li Weihong's embarrassing appearance throughout the whole process. They looked at each other and laughed so hard that they almost couldn't straighten their backs.
Did Li Weihong end up losing more than he gained by turning his 80 square meters into 40 square meters?
Zhang Zhongping knew the whole thing clearly, but he saw through it without saying anything. Since the problem had been solved, he would not pursue it any further.
Jian Xiaoxing successfully got the house in an excellent location, but she was troubled when writing the owner's name.
She looked at Li Man with starry eyes, pulled the corner of her clothes and shook it gently: "There is something I need you to do me a favor."
