Chapter 35: Could This Be?

  Change seats?

  Nie Guowei and Ye Shuyu were both stunned for a moment, and in an instant, Ye Shuyu came back to her senses. The gaze they directed at Nie Zhenbang was somewhat different now.

  In other people's homes, they all hope their sons will become dragons and their daughters will become phoenixes. However, in one's own home, it seems that the situation is reversed.

  At this moment, after hearing Nie Zhenbang call her "mom", Ye Shuyu's heart was completely opened. At first, the conflicting emotions were also swept away. Initially, when Nie Zhenbang first entered the house, Ye Shuyu was very conflicted. On one hand, she hoped that Nie Zhenbang could make a good showing, so that in the future, at least the second branch of the Nie family wouldn't lose so badly, and at least there would be a man to inherit the legacy. On the other hand, this was her husband's mistress's illegitimate child. Although this woman was still before she and her husband got married. But looking at Nie Zhenbang, Ye Shuyu sometimes also hoped that this thing had never happened. After all, for herself, it was a shame.

  But now those worries are gone. After Ye Shuyan's mentality returned to normal, she regained her former appearance as a talented woman.

  Next to him, Nie Guowei was still pondering the meaning of these words, while Ye Shuyan looked at Nie Zhenbang in surprise. After making sure that this son was not joking, she said: "Zhenbang, you're too bold. Is... is this possible? Your dad has only been in Guangdong for a few days. Can they agree to this?"

  Yuehai and Nanhai are both special economic zones, but the treatment is worlds apart. Yuehai City is just a prefecture-level city, belonging to Guangdong Province as a prefecture-level unit. However, Nanhai is different, being the country's first special economic zone.

  First of all, in terms of level, Nanhai is one grade higher than Yuehai. It's a proper deputy provincial city.

  In addition, in terms of policy inclination and support, Nanhai is also better than Yuehai. As a centrally administered municipality directly under the plan, Nanhai's superior unit is still Guangdong Province. However, its autonomy is relatively much greater than that of Yuehai. Such places are also more likely to produce political achievements.

  At first, Nie Guowei was demoted to serve as the mayor of Yuehai City. This was just the best choice Nie Zhenbang made when he had no other way out. At least, Yuehai was not a bad place. Nie Guowei completed an important transition from deputy ministerial level to full ministerial level here. This is the fundamental reason. It also laid the foundation for Nie Guowei's future promotion.

  "Mom, nothing is impossible. As the saying goes, it's up to people to make things happen." Nie Zhenbang said with a smile. Just now, when Cheng Ma was there, Nie Zhenbang had taken this difficult step for the sake of Ye Shuyan's face, calling an unfamiliar woman "mom". This was also the first time in Nie Zhenbang's life, including his past and present lives. But once he got over this hurdle, Nie Zhenbang relaxed too. When he called her again, it didn't feel like a big psychological barrier anymore.

  Seeing the two of them looking puzzled, Nie Zhenbang continued: "However, this condition cannot be brought up by you. This time, I've grasped the opportunity. Bringing down Wei Wenguang, the secretary of the Kou'an District Committee, is absolutely no problem. This person, together with his younger brother, has taken advantage of their position to gain a lot of personal benefits. Not to mention the death penalty, sentencing him to life imprisonment is absolutely no problem. As long as things are handled properly, even Li, the vice secretary who is Wei Wenguang's superior, will be unable to avoid blame. This way, our opportunity has arrived."

  At this point, Nie Zhenbang deliberately looked at his father and said: "But I don't know if you have the guts, Old Dad. This Vice Secretary Li is also a big shot, according to what I know. The supporter behind him is the Zhou family."

  When Nie Zhenbang said this, Nie Guowei also burst out laughing and scolded with a smile: "You little rascal. You're really bold. Although I may not have any abilities in this life, but the Nie family has never lacked courage. What do you say we should do? Your mom and I will unconditionally cooperate with you. As for your uncle, I'll go talk to him."

  At this time, Cheng Ma Zi walked in from outside and saw the happy family of three chatting. He smiled and said: "Guo Wei, Shu Xian. Li, the deputy secretary of Nanhai Municipal Committee, is here to see me. What do you think? Should I see him or not?"

  Cheng Mazi, although belonging to the field army system, is stationed in Nanning after all. It's still necessary to maintain a good relationship with the local government. Cheng Mazi doesn't want things to become rigid and irreconcilable either.

  Coming in to ask this question, it's clear that he's hinting at something. Nie Guowei was about to speak when Ye Shuyan tugged on his sleeve and gave him a stern look. This husband of hers is great in every way, but his experience with political struggles is really lacking. Isn't this Vice Secretary Li the position their son wants to snatch? What good could come from meeting at this time?

  Then, Ye Shuyu hastily said: "Cheng Ge, do you have any difficulties? If so, I won't say anything. If not, our intention is to see what kind of attitude Zhenbang has, after all, he's the main person involved this time. This child has been spoiled by us. At home, he never suffered such idle air, even the old master gave him three points. No way, our family's old lady just likes Yiao'er, Yiaosun."

  Cheng Mazi was taken aback, not expecting that she had misjudged the situation today. This Nie Zhenbang, at such a young age, actually has such status in the Nie family, could it be that the Nie family is planning to cultivate him as the third-generation successor? Why hasn't any news about this been leaked out?

  Cheng Ma Zi looked somewhat puzzled, then smiled and said: "Shu Xian, what are you talking about? What difficulties could I have? This doesn't even fall under the jurisdiction of Guangdong Province. My superior is your great uncle. Whatever you say goes. I'll definitely cooperate fully."

  Nie Zhenbang also stood up and said, "Uncle Cheng, thank you for your trouble. I know what you're worried about, but don't be anxious. Let's wait until Secretary Li from the Nanhai Municipal Committee arrives before we talk. I guarantee that everything here will remain as it was in the past. The military and civilians will still have a harmonious relationship like fish and water. There won't be any impact."

  At this moment, outside the garrison of the 79th Army, two sedans were parked on the side. Vice Secretary Li, about fifty years old, had sparse hair on his head and was already balding. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, which gave him an air of a successful person. Looking at Wei Wenxiu standing in front of him like a primary school student, Vice Secretary Li said angrily: "You're someone who can't even accomplish anything but can cause trouble instead. I've told you before to be cautious and low-key. Look at your brother, what kind of thing is he doing?"

  At this moment, a soldier walked out of the barracks, expressionless and scanned the crowd, saying: "Who is Deputy Secretary Li?"

  Deputy Secretary Li heard this and immediately smiled and went to meet him: "I am, I am. Little comrade, you've worked hard. What does your Program Committee say? Is it free now?"

  The soldier glanced at Deputy Secretary Li calmly, in the eyes of these soldiers, it doesn't matter what kind of secretary you are. In their eyes, the commander's order is the only order that counts. He then said: "The commander says, he's busy now, preparing for the military region's annual large-scale exercise. You come back tomorrow."

  At this moment, at the entrance of the residence, on the highway that leads to the city center of Nanhai, police lights were flashing. A convoy was slowly driving over in this direction. When the cars stopped, a group of people got out from the front car. Originally still watching from the side, Deputy Secretary Li's heart jumped out when he saw the two leading figures, what the hell is going on? How could even Provincial Committee Secretary Xue Ligong be alerted? Looking at Municipal Committee Secretary Li Qianjin who was accompanying Xue Ligong.

  Li Deputy Secretary immediately ran over and said in a low voice: "Secretary Xue, Secretary Qianjin. How did you come?"
