In name only: I will break the chess game in Handong

We can't let our comrades in Handong feel disheartened!

Every word he said put Qin Siyuan on the line, as if Qin Siyuan would incur the wrath of the entire Handong community if he didn't scold Jiang Dehai, which was indeed the case.

Perhaps this is somewhat unfair to Qin Siyuan.

After all, it wasn't his fault, but is there anything absolutely fair in the world?

At this moment, Qin Siyuan was weak and helpless...

He wanted to respond, but couldn't find a point to retaliate. More importantly, if he refused at this moment, he would be standing against the eleven members of the Standing Committee of Handong, making it almost impossible for him to do anything in the future!

At this moment, Qian Zhiming was pretending to be dead, which was his usual trick, but this move did not attract any attention.

However, Chen Luo's gaze quickly fell on Qian Zhiming. He tapped his fingertips lightly on the table and spoke.

"Comrade Zhiming and Comrade Siyuan may feel embarrassed on their own and need someone to encourage them before they dare to tell Minister Jiang the facts and reason things out to clear the name of our comrades in Handong."

I remember that Comrade Zhiming was once Minister Jiang's old subordinate, and we have maintained contact over the years.

We could easily join Comrade Siyuan in conveying our opinions from Handong to Minister Jiang!

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent for a moment, their gazes shifting from Qin Siyuan to Qian Zhiming. There was actually a "mole" among them.

Qian Zhiming was extremely embarrassed at this moment, being watched by everyone. He wanted to say that he had no relationship with Minister Jiang, but words spoken are like water spilled, and this was not a private occasion!

“Secretary Chen, Minister Jiang and I haven’t been in contact for several years, and we really can’t talk to each other!”

"Comrade Siyuan is different. They're about to become in-laws. Putting aside his official position, he can naturally communicate with Minister Jiang. I'm different; even if I spoke, Minister Jiang wouldn't listen."

At this moment, shifting the blame is the most important thing.

Qian Zhiming was well-versed in this!

But do people believe what he says?

From the way Sha Ruijin, Zhou Jianjun, and the others were squinting, it was clear that none of them were stupid!

"Alright, let's not make things difficult for Comrade Siyuan. Although Comrade Siyuan and Minister Jiang may become in-laws in the future, they are not married yet. Comrade Siyuan has his own difficulties. Let's adjourn the meeting here!"

Sha Ruijin took the initiative to end this targeting, and how Qin Siyuan is treated from now on depends entirely on Qin Siyuan's choice.

Is it about uniting with everyone in Handong?

They still insist on clinging to the Jiang family's coattails...

Different choices lead to vastly different futures; this is merely a warning shot! When that time comes, don't blame the Standing Committee members of Handong for being ruthless and targeting Qin Siyuan!

After the meeting ended, everyone left in an orderly fashion, except for Qin Siyuan, who sat alone in his seat, his expression complex.

Sha Ruijin's words, along with the attitudes of the people in Handong, undoubtedly provided a choice: continue to follow Minister Jiang down this dark path, or turn around and join the people in Handong...

Qin Siyuan was confused.

He was the last to leave the meeting room. Just as he returned to the office of the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, Qin Siyuan's phone rang.

When I picked it up, I realized it belonged to my precious daughter.

Taking a deep breath, Qin Siyuan concealed his exhaustion and then answered the phone.

"Hey girl, what made you decide to call me?"

"Dad! Waaaaah...!"

Qin Siyuan's daughter didn't speak, she just kept crying, her voice filled with deep sorrow.

"Hey! Girl, what's wrong? Tell me! Don't scare your dad!"

Qin Siyuan was also anxious. He only had this one daughter, and he usually doted on her very much.

"Dad! I can't stand Jiang Ning anymore! Just now, he actually tried to lay a hand on me! We haven't even started the engagement yet, and he already..."

Dad, do I really have to marry him? I just graduated from university! You said he was the most suitable candidate, saying he was young and promising, but I think that's all a lie! He's just a blatant pervert!

His usual gentle and refined demeanor in front of you is all an act! Dad, I don't want to marry him!

Qin Siyuan's hands trembled upon hearing this!

A glistening mist welled up in his eyes. Perhaps he had been somewhat bewitched when he had his daughter choose Minister Jiang's son, hoping to gain his help.

But Jiang Ning, Minister Jiang's son, was truly gentle and refined in front of him.

And now...

Would my own daughter lie to me?

Even if it's deception, if his daughter doesn't want to marry him, does he really want to force her to marry him?

Qin Siyuan remained silent.

"Girl, don't be anxious. Let me ask about this. If it's really as you say, then it's better not to go through with the marriage!"

Don't be afraid, okay? Dad will always be your strong support!

"Okay, Dad."

Qin Siyuan quickly dialed Jiang Dehai's number after hanging up the phone.

"Hello, Minister Jiang, this is Qin Siyuan!"

Upon hearing this, a lazy voice slowly came through the phone.

"Oh, it's Brother Siyuan. What's up?"

"Minister Jiang, my daughter just called me and said that your Jiang Ning made unwanted advances towards her. We're not even engaged yet. Isn't that a bit too hasty?"

Upon hearing this, Minister Jiang was taken aback for a moment, then replied perfunctorily, "Brother Siyuan, the kids are getting engaged soon, so it's alright for them to get to know each other a little beforehand, right?"

I know my son's personality perfectly well. It's impossible for the situation you described to happen.

Even if there was something, it definitely wasn't physical contact; your Wanwan must have misunderstood.

And Siyuan, don't forget, your father-in-law and my father both agreed to this marriage.

Since it's bound to happen sooner or later, it's okay to get together sooner.

Upon hearing this, Qin Siyuan's eyes instantly turned bloodshot. Did they really think he was selling his daughter?

Chapter 350: We can fight over every rule, but we must never mess things up!

At this moment, a flame of revenge was burning fiercely deep within Qin Siyuan's heart!

If he, as a father, can't even protect his own daughter, what's the point of climbing the social ladder?

Taking a deep breath, Qin Siyuan tried to steady his breathing, but the trembling of his lips was still unavoidable.

"Minister Jiang, there's something I'd like to discuss with you!"

"Oh? Brother Siyuan, go ahead and say it. I'm listening. As long as it's not too difficult, we can discuss it."

This bureaucratic tone made Qin Siyuan feel nauseous.

"Here's the thing, Minister Jiang. This afternoon, we held a Standing Committee meeting in Handong to discuss the candidate for the Party Secretary of Guangming District, Jingzhou City."

Based on Secretary Sha Ruijin's suggestion, each member of the Standing Committee of the Handong Provincial Committee can recommend one candidate to the Handong Provincial Committee!

"Is there a problem with this, Brother Siyuan?"

Jiang Dehai was somewhat puzzled, but Qin Siyuan quickly explained!

“Here’s what I’m thinking, Minister Jiang. Your eldest son, Jiang Kang, is a county party secretary in a western province. He’s been in that position for three years now, hasn’t he?”

Both being veterans of officialdom, Jiang Dehai immediately understood Qin Siyuan's meaning upon hearing this.

"You mean you're saying you're recommending my son, Xiaokang, to Handong? To be the Party Secretary of Guangming District?"

"That's right! Minister Jiang, you guessed it perfectly! The Party Secretary of Guangming District is usually concurrently the Vice Mayor of Jingzhou City, and they are all cadres at the level of a full-fledged department director."

However, since three consecutive district party secretaries of Guangming District have fallen from power, the provincial party committee has no intention of appointing a new district party secretary who also serves as vice mayor.

His rank naturally dropped to deputy director-general level, which is a perfect match for your son Jiang Kang. A deputy director-general level position like that is extremely rare and highly sought after!

These words tempted Jiang Dehai, but when he thought about his relationship with the Handong Provincial Committee... he hesitated.

“Brother Siyuan, I understand what you’re saying, and this opportunity is indeed rare. However, there’s a problem. Putting aside whether your recommendation will be adopted, there’s my relationship with the Handong Provincial Committee… If my Jiang Kang were to go to Handong, wouldn’t he be subjected to all sorts of unfair treatment?”

"Minister Jiang, you don't need to think like that. Even if there are some frictions, they are just minor ones."

Moreover, it was a conflict between you and the people of the Handong Provincial Committee, and it has nothing to do with the younger generation. I believe that Secretary Ruijin and the others in the Provincial Committee would not cause trouble for the younger generation.

Besides, Zhiming and I are still here in Handong, protecting a law-abiding district party secretary shouldn't be a problem!

"This... let me think about it..."

Upon hearing this, Qin Siyuan continued to patiently persuade, "Minister Jiang, it's not just Xiao Kang; Xiao Ning was also promoted to deputy director two years ago. Promotions in the public security team are relatively fast."

Alternatively, Xiao Ning could be transferred here to serve as the deputy district head and director of the district's public security bureau in Guangming District. This way, the brothers would be of one mind and work together, and their future prospects would be limitless!

If sending Jiang Dehai's eldest son to serve as the Party Secretary of Guangming District in Handong was merely to entice Jiang Dehai, then sending his youngest son, Jiang Ning, to serve as the Deputy District Head and Director of the Public Security Bureau of Guangming District in Handong was the real trap!

Why did the Jiang family push Qin Siyuan to come to Handong in the first place?

Isn't it just a matter of trying to insert a needle into the political and legal system?

The purpose of doing this was to pave the way for his youngest son, Jiang Ning!

Qin Siyuan's words were exactly what he wanted to hear!

As expected, Jiang Dehai's initial hesitation began to waver.

"Brother Siyuan, you've just arrived in Handong, are you really capable of doing this?"

"Minister Jiang, I am a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee of Handong and Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission. It's just a promotion to a division-level cadre, and not even a provincial-level cadre. What's so difficult about that?"

"Good! Brother Siyuan, go ahead and do it boldly. As long as you succeed, our Jiang family will definitely not treat you unfairly in the future!"

"Okay, Minister Jiang, I'll try my best!"

The call ended abruptly. After Jiang Dehai hung up, Qin Siyuan's gaze turned sinister, and he slammed the phone against the wall!

"You son of a bitch, the Jiang family! I, Qin Siyuan, only have one daughter. Do you really think I, Qin Siyuan, am your Jiang family's dog?"

"I'd like to see if your two sons from the Jiang family can leave Handong safely after they arrive!"

When Qin Siyuan walked out of his office, his face showed a resolute and relieved expression. Without having his secretary notify him in advance, Qin Siyuan went straight to the door of the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee and knocked on the door.

"Secretary Chen, this is Qin Siyuan. Are you busy?"
