Chapter 59: Resentment towards Wu and Wu
Zhang Qingyun coldly watched Zhang Jinbao's performance, and the fire in his heart suddenly surged up. As soon as he thought of Chen Yunshan's actions at the Public Security Bureau, he couldn't help but shout angrily:
"Director Zhang, what a majestic attitude! What are you doing? When did police comrades join the theater troupe?"
Zhang Jinbo's face changed, and he immediately stepped forward, smiling more miserably than crying. After a long time, he said: "Director Zhang, you've had a shock. We must handle this matter seriously and give you an explanation!"
"Give me an explanation?" Zhang Qingyun's face turned cold, and he said loudly: "It's not for me to explain, but for the party and the people! Look...". Zhang Qingyun pointed to the crowd around him.
"Everyone is watching you now, Zhang Dasuo! As the director of the railway station police station, the station has become like this, and you are not on duty. Can you live up to your uniform? Can you live up to the title of policeman?"
Zhang Qingyun scolded Zhang Jinbao in front of everyone, at this time he didn't think about giving the director any face, he poured all his dissatisfaction with Chen Yunshan onto this unlucky guy, he just wanted to use this matter to knock on Chen Yunshan and let him be more restrained, not jumping out to show off at this critical moment.
Zhang Jinbo wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into. Although Zhang Qingyun was not his direct superior, she was after all a county committee member, and she had seized on this matter to launch a tirade, slapping big hats on his head one by one. How dare he fight back? If this matter were to blow up, and Zhang Qingyun were to utter a single word upstairs, then he would no longer be able to serve as the director of this department.
Chen Ke stood by, also speechless and trembling with fear. Although he had seen Zhang Qingyun's cunning before, this was the first time he saw him lose his temper. When Zhang Qingyun got angry, there was a kind of majesty emanating from within that made listeners tremble with fear for no reason, their legs turning soft, and they didn't even have the courage to look at him.
"Alright, I've said all I need to say. You can go and discuss this with Director Chen yourself! How you handle it is your business. Take your people and leave first!" Zhang Qingyun said in a calmer tone.
Zhang Jinbo was like a great amnesty, and he hastily waved his hand at the two subordinates, and with a gloomy face, he took Zhou Chuan and several troublemakers away in a hurry.
Zhang Qingyun furrowed his brow, glanced at his watch and saw that it was almost 9 o'clock. He cursed silently to himself, then turned to Chen Ke and said:
"What's going to happen with this train? It can't be driven anymore, are all the passengers going to be stranded at the station?"
Chen Ke suddenly woke up like a dream, and immediately went forward: "It was my negligence, it was my negligence, I will adjust the car immediately." Then he hastily issued a series of commands through the intercom.
This time the station finally showed its rare efficiency. Chen Ke's command was issued for less than two minutes, and a brand new bus drove into No. 12 parking space.
"Passengers going to Lizi Ping, please board this car. I apologize on behalf of the station for the delay and wish you a pleasant journey!" Chen Ke said loudly. As soon as he finished speaking, the impatient passengers began to cheer and change trains. Many people cast grateful glances at Zhang Qingyun, but no one dared to look more, fearing that they would provoke him, knowing from his demeanor that he was likely a high-ranking leader.
"Ma Shan, let's go too! Let's take that car." After the others had left, Zhang Qingyun turned to Ma Shan beside him and said.
"Wait! Director Zhang, I've already arranged for your car, look..." Chen Ke said somewhat anxiously by the side.
Zhang Qingyun went out and took a look, only to find that a black Santana had stopped outside at some point, which should be the station leader's dedicated car judging from the license plate. Zhang Qingyun hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Station Master Chen, don't bother, we'll just take the bus instead! I just want to experience the bus service of Yongping Station."
Zhang Qingyun finished speaking and ignored Chen Ke, pulling Ma Shan onto the bus across from them.
Zhang Qingyun got on the car and everyone followed him to give up their seats. Zhang Qingyun quickly gestured that it was not necessary, and insisted on pulling Ma Xuan to sit in the back seat. Poor Chen Ke didn't dare to leave, walked to the front and whispered to the driver for a full five minutes before coming to Zhang Qingyun's side and saying softly:
"Director Zhang, can we start the car now?"
Zhang Qingyun felt a wave of annoyance in his heart, and at the same time, he couldn't help but laugh. He looked at his watch again and delayed for another 20 minutes. He furrowed his brow and said:
"Let's go! It's about time we left!"

The car was running on the winding road, Zhang Qingyun stared out of the window in a daze, but his mind had already flown to the distant horizon. The Gaodianyu Bridge problem and the issue with the Sanjiang Hydropower Station and Dam Cement Plant's police station were not trivial matters, both of which had the shadow of martial arts behind them.
"Nothing else will happen, right?" Zhang Qingyun muttered to himself. As soon as he thought of this, his heart became even more uneasy. He had experience from his past life that once a person's luck turned bad, the bad luck would often come in succession. He thought that if Yongping caused another disturbance, the consequences would be unbearable.
Zhang Qingyun was lost in thought, while Ma Xuan beside him was even more uneasy, her little heart racing nonstop all the way. Zhang Qingyun's performance today had left a deep impression on her mind - when danger struck, he had hugged her and let her hide behind him, facing the menacing thugs with unwavering courage. What was key was the authority he had shown in scolding the stationmaster and the police chief, making people dare not look straight at him...
Every woman hopes to be pampered by a man, and Ma Shan is no exception. Her mind was filled with thoughts of her intimate encounter with Zhang Qingyun earlier, sometimes feeling shy and sometimes warm and nostalgic. However, all these feelings eventually turned into endless melancholy, all because this man already had a girlfriend!
As the car moved forward, Ma Xiang's melancholy grew with each passing mile, for she knew that her time with Zhang Qingyun was dwindling. Once they crossed the mountain ridge ahead, Zhang would reach his destination.
She glanced lightly at Zhang Qingyun, this man was staring blankly out the window, his eyes deep and distant, with a hint of worry between his eyebrows that was hard to detect, Ma Shan's heart trembled inexplicably, hastily withdrawing her gaze, not daring to look again.
"Green clouds, high building, we're almost there, you'd better get off the horse." Ma Shan reminded with a burst of courage.
"Oh? Arrived?" Zhang Qingyun woke up like a dream, smiled awkwardly, looked at Ma Xuan with gratitude, and prepared to get off the bus with her bag.
"Not yet! We still have two more turns before we arrive." Ma Shan said hastily.
Zhang Qingyun was very embarrassed and secretly scolded himself for being muddle-headed, so he had to sit down again.
"Although Lìzi Píng is tough, you can also experience things there that you can't in the city. It's also beneficial for you to go there and temper yourself." Zhang Qingyun said, changing the subject.
Ma Shan nodded slightly and smiled, but her enthusiasm was clearly low, feeling empty in her heart.
Zhang Qingyun thought she was just leaving home and felt a bit uncomfortable, so he quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, Ma Shan, the people in Lizi Ping are very good and simple, you don't have to worry. By the way, after a while I will also go to Lizi Ping, at that time I will come to see you?"
Ma Shan's eyes lit up suddenly, and she raised her head to say something, but just heard a "squeak" sound, the car stopped steadily.
"Director Zhang, Gao Jianyu has arrived, you can get off now." The driver said respectfully.
"Alright, I'll take off then. See you later." Zhang Qingyun picked up her bag and nodded at Mashan before walking straight down the bus.
