As soon as Xiong Tingbiao heard.

He immediately became a bit anxious.

He said, "Secretary He, although I've reported to Mayor Chen today, I haven't officially started yet. How about I talk to Mayor Chen, ask him to let me go, or have my dad step in?"

Upon hearing this.

He Ye immediately held his hand down.

He said, "Brother Xiong, you know how well I treat you. Since I'm willing to help you, I'm definitely looking to promote you. The current situation is quite special, and it's not something that Chairman Xiong's intervention can resolve."

"My dad is one of the heads of the four-party team. How come he can't do it? Could Chen Fang's face be bigger than my dad's?"

"You can't say it like that. Comrade Chen Fang is the hero of Guanghe County. Promoting him to the city position matches public opinion. You've reported to him but went to work beside Mayor Zhou. If this gets out, won't it tarnish Chairman Xiong's reputation? People will say Chairman Xiong's son is an opportunist, right?"

After He Ye explained the pros and cons.

Xiong Tingbiao began to hesitate.

He was just about to give up for the greater good.

Then He Ye mumbled, "Actually, there is another way."

Xiong Tingbiao grabbed He Ye's hand and asked, "Secretary He, please tell me, what is the solution?"

He Ye, while stroking his chin, said, "If you leave voluntarily, it won't work. But if Chen Fang doesn't want you, that changes the nature of the situation."

"He doesn't want me? Why wouldn't he want me?"

Xiong Tingbiao asked.

He Ye leaned in close to his ear and whispered a few words.

Xiong Tingbiao suddenly understood and said, "In short, it's about annoying him, making him feel I'm hard to manage, so naturally he'll think of replacing me, right?"

"It's not surprising that you're from a prestigious family, Brother Xiong; sometimes words don't need to be many."

He Ye praised with a thumbs up.

Xiong Tingbiao immediately stood up.

He said to He Ye, "Thank you, Secretary He, for your guidance today; I will definitely remember this grace. When the opportunity arises, I will return this favor."

After saying this.

Xiong Tingbiao left.

He Ye remained calm.

With a faint smile on his face.

Just as he picked up a cup of tea, a voice came from behind the screen.

"It's easier to manipulate young people. Old He, this trick is clever."

A figure appeared.

It was Zhou Nongxin.

He Ye hurriedly offered a seat.

He said, "As long as Xiong Tingbiao goes too far, Chen Fang will definitely take action. Once he does, he will offend Xiong Min. At that point, the trouble will shift, and Chen Fang will face pressure from the Political Consultative Conference. I don't believe he has the skill to handle it."

"Hahaha..."

Zhou Nongxin burst into laughter after hearing this.

He patted He Ye's shoulder.

He said, "Old He, well done. This time, you truly deserve a credit."

He Ye laughed cheerfully and said, "Boss, when the major success comes, don't forget to promote someone like me."

In the private room.

A burst of hearty laughter.

It's as if they already saw Chen Fang being stomped underfoot by Xiong Min.

Early the next morning.

As Chen Fang walked into the office.

He was stunned by the scene in front of him.

Xiong Tingbiao was lying directly on his sofa.

Holding a cigarette in his mouth.

The sofa and carpet were all covered with sunflower seed shells and fruit peels, looking like a complete mess.

"Oh, Mayor Chen is here. I drank too much last night and was afraid I'd be late for work today, so I came to your office to rest. I suppose Mayor Chen wouldn't mind, right?"

As he said this.

Xiong Tingbiao deliberately put on a wild expression.

Chen Fang guessed correctly.

This Xiong Tingbiao was indeed arranged to cause trouble.

He shook his head.

He said, "Of course I don't mind, as long as you tidy up."

Xiong Tingbiao stretched lazily.

He said, "Mayor Chen, how about you help me clean up? This sofa is too soft; I didn't sleep well, so I'm going home for a nap."

"I've said, I don't mind, but the premise is you clean up before you leave."

Chen Fang repeated.

Xiong Tingbiao paused his steps.

He turned around and furrowed his brows.

Stared at Chen Fang for a while.

He said, "I'm a secretary, not a janitor. Asking me to clean up is impossible; if you have the guts, fire me."

"You're quite bold."

Chen Fang still said with a smile.

Xiong Tingbiao just wanted to amplify conflict.

Patted his chest.

He said, "No choice, I've been this way since I was young, grown this old, can't change it. As I said, if you have the guts, fire me."

Chen Fang smiled slightly.

He said, "Firing you isn't my job; I'm a Deputy Mayor, you don't qualify. This matter should be handled by Secretary He Ye."

With that.

He picked up the phone on the table.

Dialed a number.

He said, "Secretary He, come to my office."

After about a few minutes.

He Ye hurriedly ran in.

Seeing the chaotic state of the office, he felt joyful inside.

But still pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Mayor Chen, anything you need me for?"

"Speak to him."

Chen Fang pointed at Xiong Tingbiao and said.

Xiong Tingbiao had a disdainful look on his face.

He said, "Secretary He, it's nothing serious. Last night I..."

He repeated what he had just said to Chen Fang.

Next, it was He Ye's turn to act.

His role, naturally, is to instigate, ideally causing Chen Fang to express anger.

Turning to Xiong Tingbiao, he said, "Secretary Xiong, you go out first. I'll chat with Mayor Chen."

Xiong Tingbiao naturally knew He Ye would help him, so he yawned and left by slamming the door heavily.

"Mayor Chen, you may not know, this Secretary Xiong is not a common person. His appointment beside you as secretary was actually designated by Chairman Xiong."

At this moment, Chen Fang.

Already guessed He Ye's intention.

He intentionally asked, "Chairman Xiong? Which Chairman Xiong?"

"Political Consultative Conference Chairman Xiong Min."

After He Ye answered.

He expected Chen Fang to be shocked.

To his surprise, after merely an "Oh," he sat down and said, "Whether Chairman Xiong arranged it or not, I don't care. It's you, He Ye, who brought him to me. If I'm dissatisfied, you need to replace him. In my opinion, just fire him. Shouldn't be too hard, right?"

Upon hearing this.

He Ye coldly snorted in his heart.

Thinking, I didn't expect you, Chen Fang, to be so naïve.

Chairman of the Political Consultative Conference's son, can he be fired just like that?

He hurriedly furrowed his brows, and with difficulty said, "Mayor Chen, this is really challenging for me. My suggestion is you endure it a bit. These second-generation officials usually have bad temper; let's not make trouble unnecessarily. If you offend Chairman Xiong, your troubles will be significant."

"Why should I offend Chairman Xiong? Shouldn't it be you, He Ye?"

Chen Fang asked.
