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

It's no exaggeration to call it a golden hen that lays eggs.

"Honey, let's leave the company for now. It's hard to ask Secretary Zhou for help, and besides, I'm working in the political and legal field now. If I come here, it will only benefit others."

"Okay, then let's not move for now."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Luo let out a heavy sigh. The Secretary Zhou he mentioned was Zhou Jianjun, the current Deputy Secretary of Jiangsu Province and Secretary of the Suzhou Municipal Party Committee.

It's true that it's hard to say, but more importantly, wouldn't coming to Handong be like doing Li Dakang a favor?

............................................................

Meanwhile, inside Villa No. 3 of the Provincial Party Committee.

Qi Tongwei and Gao Yuliang, the teacher and student, were still discussing the work requirements and deeper meanings of Chen Luo.

"Teacher, the new Secretary Chen is very familiar with our work in the political and legal field. If I didn't know that he has always been engaged in economic construction, I would hardly believe it."

"This is normal. After all, Secretary Chen graduated with two doctoral degrees from Peking University. Even if he has never worked in the political and legal system, he is not unfamiliar with it."

By the way, what is Secretary Chen's attitude towards you?

Gao Yuliang then changed the subject and brought up this matter.

"To be honest, teacher, I don't quite understand. This Secretary Chen has always been very calm and treats me, Ji Changming, and Dean Bai the same."

There has been no change in attitude at the moment.

"Well, maybe you're new here and don't know much about Handong. You need to be careful during this time. It's best to avoid going to Shanshui Manor if possible."

Some things were understood perfectly well, though Gao Yuliang didn't say them directly, Qi Tongwei understood them perfectly.

"Don't worry, teacher. This period is crucial. I won't make any mistakes!"

"By the way, teacher, this new Secretary Sha is really strange. He just took office and immediately dragged the Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary Tian Guofu down for an inspection. It's really..."

Yes, in the afternoon, Sha Ruijin took Tian Guofu to conduct an inspection in Handong.

"Who knows? We just need to do our jobs well, and deal with whatever comes our way..."

After speaking, Gao Yuliang grasped the water glass on the coffee table and took a small sip.

"Okay, teacher, I'll be going now."

Only after Qi Tongwei left did Gao Yuliang's previously calm face darken. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and exhaled a heavy smoke ring.

After Chen Luo and Sha Ruijin took office, Gao Yuliang's previously busy days suddenly became leisurely.

I didn't receive many work-related phone calls all day.

"Ugh!"

With a sigh, Gao Yuliang leaned back on the sofa and slowly closed his eyes, unwilling to accept his fate.

The following day, at the Jingzhou Municipal Government, in the office of the Municipal Party Secretary.

Li Dakang looked at Zhao Donglai, the director of the Jingzhou Public Security Bureau, who had just entered the room, and said calmly, "Donglai, sit down."

"Okay, Secretary Dakang."

After sitting down, Zhao Donglai looked at Li Dakang hesitantly, his expression of wanting to say something but holding back made Li Dakang frown.

"Donglai, what happened?"

Zhao Donglai nodded.

"Secretary Dakang, yesterday our political and legal system held a provincial work conference, and the newly appointed Secretary Chen presided over it. Regarding this Secretary Chen..."

Zhao Donglai's meaning was clear: I am Li Dakang's man, and now that the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission has been replaced, I need to know how to respond.

"Donglai, you may not know much about the newly arrived Secretary Chen. Secretary Chen is a good cadre trusted by the organization. He came to Handong to preside over the political and legal work in order to build up the political and legal environment of Handong."

If Secretary Chen assigns you any work, you must cooperate fully and carry it out resolutely without any compromise, understand?

The implication was clear: don't mess with Chen Luo.

"Understood, understood. Don't worry, Secretary Dakang, I will definitely cooperate with Secretary Chen's work arrangements!"

"Well, you'll understand."

After Zhao Donglai left, Li Dakang continued to work, as Jingzhou was, after all, the provincial capital.

The survival and development of millions of people rests on his shoulders; it's a heavy burden.

Time passed slowly, and Chen Luo was not in a hurry to make a breakthrough. After all, everything was ready except for the final push.

A week later, Chen Luo's driver was in place, and his work was basically on track.

Hantong International Airport.

As the plane landed, an exquisitely beautiful woman led two children around ten years old out of the cabin, followed by a woman in her fifties.

The visitors were Chen Luo's wife, Zhang Nian, along with his mother-in-law, Liu Li, his son, Chen Zhengshu, and his daughter, Chen Zhengxi.

At the arrival gate, seeing the smile on his boss's face, Liu Mingyu, the secretary, was very curious.

He knew his boss had come to pick up his family.

Zhang Nian wore sunglasses and a light blue floral dress, her figure was graceful, it was hard for her not to attract attention.

Until I saw Chen Luo.

"husband!"

"father!"

The two little guys, Chen Zhengshu and Chen Zhengxi, ran very fast and jumped into Chen Luo's arms in the blink of an eye.

After hugging the two children, Chen Luo gently released them and then hugged the children's mother tightly...

Chapter 7: A Nighttime Talk Between Husband and Wife.

They hugged for almost a minute before separating.

Throughout the entire process, Chen Luo's secretary, Liu Mingyu, kept his head down. The reason was simple: he shouldn't be on screen...

"Honey, you've lost weight since I've been away from you."

Zhang Nian stroked Chen Luo's face, while Chen Luo smiled and shook his head.

"No way, let's go, let's get in the car first."

The group left the airport quickly.

The Provincial Party Committee compound.

As soon as Chen Luo's car number eight stopped, Chen Luo and his family of four quickly got out of the car.

Immediately afterward, another car stopped, and Chen Luo's mother-in-law, Liu Li, got out of the back seat.

"This will be our home for the next few years."

After Chen Luo pointed to Villa No. 8 in front of him, Zhang Nian examined it for a moment and replied, "The environment is very nice. As long as our family is together, we can stay anywhere."

"Let's go inside!"

After settling his wife and children in, Chen Luo called his secretary Liu Mingyu over and instructed him, "Mingyu, you're a local from Handong. Can you help me find a good school in Jingzhou? My two children are in the fifth grade of elementary school. Can you also help coordinate their transfer procedures?"

"No problem, Secretary Chen!"

Liu Mingyu replied readily; this was no challenge for him at all. The only thing he needed to consider was the school selection process.

Liu Mingyu left, and Chen Luo's family, having finally managed to get together, naturally enjoyed the warmth of family time.

In the master bedroom at night.

Chen Luo and his wife lay in bed, their breathing still rapid, and the flush on their faces had not yet subsided.

"Honey, I've missed you so much, it's been a month!"

Chen Luo held Zhang Nian in his arms, feeling the warmth of his lover, and gently comforted her, "I've just been busy with work."

"Yes, you've been getting busier and busier with work these past few years, honey. Don't overwork yourself."

"Hmm, it's okay, it can't crush me."

"Sigh, honey, how high a position do you think is considered 'high'?"

Chen Luo paused for a moment, without giving a direct answer.

"Wife, do you still remember why I chose to pursue a career in politics?"

The sudden question also silenced Zhang Nian.

"I remember!"

"Honey, if my former dean hadn't called my senior alumnus who had been working for many years back then, that incident would have been a very, very difficult hurdle for us."

From that day on, I vowed to truly protect you and safeguard our family. Money alone isn't enough; you need power!

This is a bloody truth.

Zhang Nian understood everything, or rather, she was the one who could best sense the changes in their family after her husband's career and power expanded.

Although Zhang Nian has stopped working in the financial industry in recent years, she still occasionally invests in stocks. Those former high-ranking colleagues, bosses, and securities executives now behave themselves like mules in front of her.

It's not that they've learned their lesson; it's that they have a husband who is the mayor of Su City!

What others feared was not the wealth his family possessed, but rather the power Chen Luo held.

Because of this thought, Zhang Nian hugged Chen Luo even tighter.

"Honey, you've worked so hard!"

"Hahaha, it's not hard work. You manage the company's affairs and take care of the child all by yourself. You are the biggest contributor to our family."

"Hmph, sweet talk, looks like you still have some energy left. Continue!"

"Fine, let's continue, you little vixen, take this!"

As dawn broke, Chen Luo rubbed his lower back and walked down the stairs.

I overindulged a bit last night...

However, Chen Luo was in very good physical condition, and his complexion was still rosy and glowing. As soon as he came downstairs, he saw that his mother-in-law had already prepared breakfast for him.

"Mom, why are you up so early?"
