Chapter 63: Qin Dong is extremely depressed

  Staring at the broken cross-sea bridge in front of him, Qin Xiangdong was directly stunned on the spot.

  "Vice Governor Qin, Vice Governor Qin......" Driver Xiao Wang called out softly: "Director Liu of the Safety Supervision Bureau has arrived." The Safety Supervision Bureau is mainly responsible for inspecting the quality of various engineering projects. Only after passing the inspection by the Safety Supervision Bureau can a project be completed and put into use.

  A man in his 40s with a stout build approached Qin Xiangdong, wiping away cold sweat: "Vice Governor Qin, I'm sorry, I'm late."

  Qin Xiangdong came to his senses, turned his head and glanced at the fat man, suddenly his face sank, stretched out his hand and grabbed the fat man's collar: "Liu Zhendong, how did you do as the director of the Safety Supervision Bureau? Didn't you inspect it before and say that the quality of the bridge was very good, and there would be no problem even after 100 years? How could it collapse just less than a week after its completion?" Qin Xiangdong was extremely angry at this time, and he didn't care about his own image anymore. The cross-sea bridge he had supervised with great effort collapsed just one week after its completion, what an irony!

  Liu Zhendong's face showed a look of panic, and he hastily explained: "Vice Governor Qin, I really did have the experts inspect the quality of the bridge, and at that time there really wasn't any problem..."

  "Damn it! No problem, how could it collapse!" Qin Xiangdong couldn't help but curse.

  "I...I..." Liu Zhendong stuttered, unsure of how to explain. At the time of completion, Liu Zhendong had indeed inspected the overall quality of the bridge, and the result was an A-level project with good quality, which should not have any major problems for decades to come. As for the sudden collapse of the bridge tonight, it also shocked Liu Zhendong greatly.

  "You useless thing, I'm going to fire you!" Qin Xiangdong suddenly pushed open Liu Zhendong, his face was iron-blue with anger.

  Liu Zhendong stood on one side, his head lowered, and he didn't dare say a word. The sweat on his face kept dripping down.

  At this time, a group of onlookers gathered at the seaside. Although it was already early morning, the curiosity of the people was still very strong. After hearing the loud noise, many people got out of bed and came out to see what had happened.

  "This big bridge must have been built with inferior materials, otherwise how could it collapse for no reason?"

  "This bridge is obviously a tofu dreg project."

  "Nowadays, builders are really ruthless, for the sake of making money, they even joke about people's lives."

  The surrounding area was filled with the murmurs of the common people.

  Hearing the gossip of the common people, Qin Xiangdong's face became even more gloomy.

  "Reporting to Deputy Governor Qin, after careful inspection, no casualties were found at the scene." A man in police uniform walked over to report to Qin Xiangdong.

  "Phew..." Qin Xiangdong let out a soft sigh of relief. As long as there were no casualties, the situation could still be salvaged.

  "Crack, crack!" Suddenly, a few flashes of white light appeared beside him.

  Qin Xiangdong was taken aback, turned his head to look, and found that several reporters were holding cameras and taking pictures of the broken bridge non-stop. Qin Xiangdong frowned and shouted: "Who let the reporters come? Get them all out of here!"

  Several police officers immediately came forward and chased away the photographers.

  Qin hesitated for a moment, then immediately ordered the police to seal off the scene, disperse the surrounding crowd, and instructed Liu Zhendong to send someone to investigate the cause of the bridge collapse. Finally, he left a group of police officers to guard the scene.

  After making arrangements, Qin Xiangdong left by car. Such a big thing had happened that it was impossible to cover it up, and all he could do was think of ways to minimize the impact.

  At the time when Qin Xiangdong was anxious, Lin San, the mastermind of the matter, was lying at home, sleeping soundly. At this time, Lin San had a smile on his mouth and occasionally made one or two laughing sounds, as if he was having some beautiful dreams.

  The next day, all the newspapers in the provincial capital published news of the collapse of the cross-sea bridge, accompanied by photos. Several newspapers directly claimed that the collapsed cross-river bridge was a tofu dregs project and demanded that the government must thoroughly investigate this matter and severely punish those unscrupulous officials and businessmen.

  Lin San gently put down the newspaper, a hint of a smile on his face. The newspaper's actions were swift, huh? This time, let's see how Qin Xiangdong wraps things up.

  Within a day, the whole province knew about the collapse of the Yangtze River Bridge, and many people's expressions were different, some were shocked, some were puzzled, some were stunned, and some were secretly laughing, it is said that even some leaders from the central government have inquired about this matter.

  The afternoon of the second day after the bridge collapse, the contractor who built the bridge was taken away by the Public Security Bureau, and even Liu Zhendong, the director of the Safety Supervision Bureau, was temporarily suspended from his post.

  The most depressing mood is Qin Xiangdong. Since the collapse of the cross-sea bridge, Qin Xiangdong has not closed his eyes and has been directing various departments to clean up the scene of the bridge collapse.

  The provincial party secretary personally convened a standing committee meeting to study the aftermath of the big bridge, and at the beginning of the meeting, the provincial party secretary severely reprimanded Qin Xiangdong, finally even claiming that he would be disciplined.

  Provincial Government Family Hospital

  Villa No. 2

  In the spacious hall sat three people: Qin Xiangdong, Qin Shenghan and Qin Hao.

  The three of them sat silently on the sofa, smoking, no one speaking a word. Before long, the living room was filled with thick smoke.

  Finally, Qin Shenghan broke the silence: "Big brother, this time the bridge collapsed, you...you won't be implicated, will you?"

  Qin Dong sighed: "How can there be no connection? After all, the bridge was personally supervised by me. Now that the bridge has collapsed for no reason, I have a certain responsibility."

  "That... is a heavy responsibility, isn't it? Will it affect your official position?" Qin Shenghan hastily asked.

  Qin sighed: "I also can't say anything good, I heard that this matter has shocked the central leaders and the provincial party secretary is extremely outraged, I estimate that I will receive a certain punishment this time."

  Upon hearing Qin Xiangdong's words, both Qin Shenghan and Qin Hao's faces changed color.

  "For now, the most important thing is to find out the cause of the bridge collapse, and secondly, do a good job in the aftermath, and quickly repair the bridge." Qin Xiangdong said slowly.

  Qin Shenghan and Qin Hao both felt a bit suffocated at this moment, if something happened to Qin Xiangdong because of this, then the days of Qin Shenghan and his son would be difficult.

  The three of them discussed in the living room until several points in the early morning before each went back to their rooms to rest.

  In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.

  After several days of investigation by the safety supervision bureau, a conclusion was finally reached: the overall structure of the bridge is unreasonable, resulting in collapse.

  The provincial government specially invited a famous architectural expert from Beijing to redesign the bridge structure diagram, and in just a few days, several construction teams rushed to the scene to repair the bridge according to the new design diagram.

  Lanxi City

  Dingsheng Group 30th Floor Chairman's Office.

  Gujalan and Lin San sat on the sofa talking.

  Since Gu Changfeng was taken away by the discipline inspection committee, Gu Jialan moved to the 30th floor office and temporarily took over as chairman of the board.

  "Lin San, it's been almost a week now, why hasn't Qin Xiangdong been punished yet?" Gu Jialan frowned tightly.

  Ever since learning that the cross-sea bridge suddenly collapsed, Gu Jialan was overjoyed and looked forward to Qin Xiangdong being punished every day. It would be best if he were directly removed from office, so that Gu Changfeng could be saved. However, after waiting for a week, Qin Xiangdong was still safely serving as the executive vice governor and had not received any punishment, leaving Gu Jialan extremely disappointed.

  Lin San was also puzzled, logically speaking, the cross-sea bridge was personally supervised by Qin Xiangdong, and after the collapse of the bridge, Qin Xiangdong should have received some punishment, but it has been so many days, why is there no movement at all?

  "It seems Qin Xiangdong won't fall this time." Gu Jialan's expression was somewhat disheartened.

  Lin San hesitated for a moment: "Let's wait a few more days and see, maybe in two days the superior will deal with Qin Xiangdong."

  "Let's hope so."

  Seeing Gu Jialan in a bad mood, Lin San suggested going out for a walk to clear her mind.

  Gujalan also wanted to go out and get some fresh air, so he arranged his work and drove with Lin San to the seaside.

  The sea is still vast, the seawater is still slapping against the rocks, and the air is still filled with a faint smell of salt.

  Lin San spent the whole day with Gu Jialan by the sea, until nightfall. Lin San only sent Gu Jialan back to her residence after dark, and after she fell asleep, he drove back home. Two days ago, Gu Jialan had bought an Audi for Lin San as a means of transportation for his daily commute.

  Late at night.

  Lin San arrived at the provincial government's residential compound and took advantage of the security guard's inattention to sneak into Villa No. 2. Lin San had already found out that Vice Governor Qin Xiangdong lived in Villa No. 2, and today he came specifically to find fault with him.

  The villa is pitch black inside, it can be said that you can't see your fingers when you stretch out your hand.

  Lin San searched around on the first floor but didn't see Qin Xiangdong's figure, so he stepped up to the second floor.

  "Vice Governor Qin, you're really something else." A sultry woman's voice suddenly came from inside a room.

  "Hmph, you damn slut, I'll kill you tonight!" A thick male voice rang out.

  Immediately followed by a series of heavy gasps.

  Lin San furrowed his brow and walked to the door of the room where the sound came from, stretching out his hand to gently push open a crack in the door.

  This is a bedroom, in the middle of the bedroom, there is a large double bed, on which a man and a woman are doing thrusting movements. The woman is very young, about 20 years old, looks very beautiful, the man's hair is half white, his body is very robust, he should be over 50 years old.

  From Lin San's angle, he could see the man's appearance clearly. Lin San narrowed his eyes: "Qin Xiangdong." Lin San had seen Qin Xiangdong's face in the newspaper, so he recognized the man playing Old Man Pushing a Cart on the bed at a glance.

  "Ah!" Qin Dong suddenly let out a low growl, his body abruptly stiffening as he collapsed onto the young woman's body and lay there motionless.

  The young woman was also lying on the bed, her body trembling slightly.

  "Ah, so cool!" After a long time, Qin Xiangdong lightly spat out two words and flipped over to lie on the bed.

  A young woman leaned over, pressed against Qin Xiangdong's chest, her small hands gently stroking his arm: "Deputy Governor Qin, you made me feel so comfortable just now."

  Qin Dong stretched out his hand and patted the young woman's buttocks, chuckling: "You this vixen, really getting more and more enchanting, when I chose you to be my nanny, it was truly a wise decision."

  "It's my good fortune to be your babysitter." The young woman said with a smile.

  Lin San, who was peeking at the door, sneered to himself and thought: This Qin Xiangdong is really something, he even doesn't let his own family's nanny off.
