Let them offer their loyalty!-Chapter 765 - 407

Xinjie City. Investigation Bureau. Political Department.

"Have you guys heard? A couple of days ago, the State Council had a meeting. The Speaker wanted to transfer our Director Qiu away, but it was opposed by three of the Deputy Speakers. And there was one Deputy Speaker who abstained."

"Yeah, I heard, I heard. I also heard that only one Deputy Speaker supported the Speaker's proposal, and the Speaker's face turned green at that."

"Right, right, right. I've heard about it too."

"Where did you hear it from?"

"My next-door neighbor's cousin's son works at the State Council."

"Oh, what a coincidence. My dad's sister's neighbor's daughter also works at the State Council."

"She said, after the meeting, the Speaker was so angry that he smashed up his entire office. Then, his secretary had no choice but to find another set of office furniture to send over..."

"I heard about that too. And I also heard that this time, the Speaker promoting Director Qiu to the bureau chief, even to the point of addition as a Member of Parliament, was something he was compelled to do."

"He actually doesn't like our Director Qiu at all. He even said before that he wanted to prevent Director Qiu from getting promoted within three years."

"I heard that too! It's just that in this period, our director has been promoted two ranks in quick succession. His words were as good as farts... Head, Head of Department, hello!"

"Head, Head of Department."

Because Qiu Tu was promoted to bureau chief today and was also nominated as a supplementary Member of Parliament, a few well-informed Political Department Investigators were gossiping quietly.

As they were chatting, they saw the Head of the Political Department, Zhang Jian, passing by.

Everyone quickly became flustered, hushed their voices, then stood at attention and saluted.

Seeing the investigators trembling in fear, Zhang Jian's face was cold as he nodded slightly, and then he walked past.

He knew why these investigators were discussing Qiu Tu and why they were afraid of being overheard by him.

Because... almost everyone in the Political Department knew that the reason Qiu Tu was able to rise so quickly was because he was first promoted to deputy Head of Department, and then snatched the position of Head of the Political Department from Cai Peiyuan.

This caused both him and Cai Peiyuan to not be very friendly towards Qiu Tu.

Furthermore, they had the support of Yan Chen back then. So while they didn't pull the rug from under Qiu Tu, they weren't warm to him either.

So, after Qiu Tu became the director, the first thing he did was set up a "joint task force" and, with the help of Guan Xiao, sidelined the two of them.

After becoming Deputy Director, he even promoted Guan Xiao to deputy Head of Department, taking direct control of the Political Department's real power.

So, in fact, everyone in the Political Department knew that the two did not have a good relationship with Qiu Tu. They gossiped about Qiu Tu only when the two were not around.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jian couldn't help but recall the brief time he had been in agreement with Qiu Tu.

Only a few months had passed, and now he couldn't even see Qiu Tu's back anymore...

Qiu Tu was not only the Investigation Bureau Chief by now but even in the state, he could spar a few moves with the Speaker.

The two were no longer on the same level.

This afternoon, as soon as these news spread from the State, the whole Investigation Bureau was talking about it.

So, even Zhang Jian, who usually didn't like gossip, heard these gossips...

'Alas. If only... I had another opportunity. Would everything be different?'

Thinking of this, and remembering how Guan Xiao climbed the ranks at a rocket's pace by riding on Qiu Tu's coattails...

Zhang Jian felt an indescribable envy...

Especially now that Qiu Tu had become the Bureau Chief, and the Bureau Chief had the power to make recommendations for the Head of the Political Department, he didn't even need to think too hard to guess that this time the position of Head of the Political Department would undoubtedly belong to Guan Xiao.

Thinking that Guan Xiao was once his subordinate, and now... he had become her subordinate, to follow her orders, Zhang Jian's face burned with pain...

Meanwhile.

In the Director's office, Qiu Tu was admiring Tan Huimin's voluptuous behind as she bent over to clean in her OL outfit, while also chatting with Guan Xiao.

"I've already nominated you as Head of the Political Department. The state has to take my feelings into account now, so there shouldn't be any issues."

Standing by his desk with one hand in his pocket and smoking, he looked out of the floor-to-ceiling windows at the scenery and continued, "Once things settle down, I'll reassign Zhang Jian."

"He's his old boss, and having him around could hinder your actions."

Today, Guan Xiao was wearing the deputy Head of Department's uniform with a coat draped over.

The coat was unbuttoned, revealing frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

The so-called "fate first, fortune second, geomancy third, accumulation of good deeds fourth, and reading fifth."

Everything is predestined, and not one bit is up to us, the mandate of Heaven is inescapable!

Fang Xiu, relying on the Destiny Treasure Record, could stealthily steal others' fates, defying Heaven and changing destiny!

"I Am Longevity in the Cultivation World by Stealing Fate"

Just as he thought this, Fang Tangtang bashfully covered her face and then untied her waist sash.

The next second, the bathrobe slid off, revealing before Qiu Tu a body as white as jade, exquisitely crafted.

Qiu Tu: ...

Qiu Tu admitted, that moment, his heartbeat might have sped up a bit.

But after all, he was a serious person. And he still had to read that philosophical book tonight!

So, he looked down at the book "Existence" in his hands, once, twice... and then continued reading!

'To hell with "Existence," the meaning of "existence" lies in Cao currency!'

Thinking that extremely vulgar, philosophy-defying thought, Qiu Tu jumped out of bed, and amid Fang Tangtang's shriek, scooped her up and pinned her down on the bed...

The Blue Moon blushed its cheeks, drawing dark clouds to cover its face.
