Chapter 154: Xie Huilan's promise
News Department quarters.
After buying the electric heater from the supermarket, Dong Xuebing waited at a nearby 24hrs KFC. After waiting for a while, he received a call from Xie Huilan, telling him that her guests had left. He quickly picks up the electric heater and left for her house. When he reached Xie Huilan's estate, he took a few deep breaths to compose himself before entering the unit number into the security gate. After Xie Huilan unlocked the gate, he slowly makes his way upstairs. He was worried if Xie Huilan would help him arrange the transfer.
Xie Huilan's apartment.
Xie Huilan opened the door to let Dong Xuebing enter. "Haha, you looked tired. Thank you so much." This chapter's initial release occurred on the n0vell--Bjjn site.
"It's fine." Dong Xuebing placed the electric heater by the wall. "Is this model suitable?"
"Oh, this is an expensive brand. How much is it? I will pay for you."
"Ah, it does not cost much. You don't need to pay me."
"The previous time you had bought the clothes for me. How can I let you pay this time?" Xie Huilan took out a few notes from her purse. "I don't know how much this heater cost. Here, take it. Don't make me repeat this, alright?"
After rejecting a few times, Dong Xuebing accepted the money. "Xiao Hao went back?"
Xie Huilan nodded. "I asked him to go back to do his homework. Come, have a seat."
Dong Xuebing noticed Xie Huilan had changed her clothes. She was wearing a sweatshirt and a pair of casual pants. She was dressed casually and wore a pair of wool slippers. Dong Xuebing knew Xie Huilan should not be wearing this attire when she met Chief Wu and his wife. The fact that she was wearing this attire now tells him that Xie Huilan treated him as someone close. Dong Xuebing was relieved and confirmed that Sister Xie does not know about the stocking incident!
"Xiao Dong..."
"Yes."
Xie Huilan looked at him and laughed. "Haha, I heard a lot about you just now. You are so young and had achieved so many things. No wonder you are promoted so fast. My achievements cannot be compared to you when I joined government service. No... I can't even be compared to you now if I consider the problems you solved for your branch."
Xie Huilan was deep in thoughts and sighed. She looked at Dong Xuebing with a bitter smile. "I have been thinking of how to repay you for saving me. How can I reject your request? Haha, ok. I will try my best to help you. I will not let you be a Deputy Section Chief Rank Police Officer. Tell me, is there any department you wish to enter? I will see if there are any vacancies for a leadership role and help you make the arrangement."
Leader role?!
I can get a Deputy Section Chief position?
Dong Xuebing was excited when he heard this. It was tough for him to be transferred out of State Security. He could still get a position with higher authority?
"Sister Xie. Thank you so much. I... I am fine with any position."
Xie Huilan smiled and shook her head. "Haha, since I am going to help you, I must do my best. Tell me, and I shall see what I can do."
Dong Xuebing looked at Sister Xie and asked. "County Public Security Deputy Bureau's Deputy Chief? Errr... is it possible?"
Xie Huilan had a bitter smile on her face.
Dong Xuebing knew he was asking for too much and almost slapped himself. Dong Xuebing, you are too greedy. A leader position is good enough, and you still want to be so picky? He was afraid that Xie Huilan would not be happy and quickly say: "Actually, a deputy instructor position in Beijing will do."
"Deputy instructor?" Xie Huilan paused for a few seconds. "Alright... County's Public Security Deputy Bureau's Deputy Chief will do. I will get back to you in a few days."
Dong Xuebing was stunned. "Sister Xie! I... I...."
Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and waved her hand. "Don't thank me first. Go back and wait for my call, understand? Hahaha..."
"O... Ok." Dong Xuebing did not know what to say.
County's Public Security Deputy Bureau's Deputy Chief is a Deputy Section Chief position. But it is at the grassroots level, and the Deputy Bureau Chiefs there had more authority than the Deputy Bureau Chiefs in Beijing City! They had more powers than the investigation branch or any department head in the City Bureau! This was the best position Dong Xuebing wished for. A position with real powers! This is an upgrade from Deputy Chief of the General Affairs Office to a County's Public Security Deputy Chief.
Dong Xuebing will have much more authority than before!
To Dong Xuebing, this was like winning the top price in a lottery!!!
