Chapter 773: Chapter 773

Zhizhong immediately said, "Second Miss Xiang is puzzled that the matter with young master Chen Yuanyuan is both his own affair and his father's, so why are you, his uncle, so concerned and self-reproaching, to the extent that the dignified Provincial Group Minister personally brings him to make an apology, with a sincere attitude that is extraordinarily heartfelt? What about his father? What is he doing? I've explained before, but Second Miss Xiang found it unreasonable because she has strong logical judgment. Old Secretary Li, what do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Li Tanglu's face twitched, and he felt a painful twinge in his heart.

Luo Tianlin also felt that the old leader's expression was not quite right, guessing that perhaps Second Miss Xiang's logical judgment was indeed accurate.

Li Tanglu let out a long sigh and said, "Second Miss Xiang truly is a wise woman indeed, with precise logical judgment! How about this... after lunch today, when I'm discharged from the hospital. After that, shall I contact you?"

Zhizhong's eyes widened, and he glanced at Xiang Wenxin.

Xiang Wenxin was a bit smug, immediately nodding her head with a smile on her lips, her intention clear without saying anything.

Then, Zhizhong replied, "Alright, Old Secretary Li, I will wait for your call."

After the call ended, Zhizhong gave Xiang Wenxin a thumbs-up: "Hmm, Little Aunt Xin has a keen eye! Truly a wise woman indeed, the Old Secretary's praise was spot-on!"

Xiang Wenxin, of course, was feeling somewhat elated, a bit proud, "That's right! It seems there is a story between Old Man Li and Tu Feiyuan! Your Little Aunt loves these kinds of stories!"

Meanwhile, Li Tanglu returned the mobile phone to Luo Tianlin, with a pained expression on his face, he let out an inward long sigh, thinking: It can't be hidden anymore, alas...

Luo Tianlin, being observant of emotions, naturally knew the old leader had something difficult to express and refrained from asking too much.

Of course, he was also aware that Li Tanglu had always had a rather strained relationship with his brother-in-law, who served as a vice-mayor, alas––these types of domestic issues involving provincial heavyweights were really not something outsiders should comment on.

Therefore, Luo Tianlin merely added more food to Li Tanglu's plate and said, "Old Secretary, don't be sad, everything will pass. You should take good care of your health, that's the most important thing."

Li Tanglu nodded his head, was silent for a while, then said, "Tianlin, Chen Xiaoping has been the vice-mayor of Huxi for four years now, hasn't he?"

Luo Tianlin hurriedly nodded, "Yes, it's been four years. At that time, per your wishes, Old Man Li... I had to handle it that way."

Indeed, Chen Yuanyuan's father, Chen Xiaoping, had always had a conflict with his powerful uncle.

Thus, Li Tanglu had always kept him geographically distant and suppressed, not allowing him to go to a better Prefecture-level City or to return to the Provincial City.

Four years ago, when Luo Tianlin became the Provincial Group Minister, amidst a major personnel reshuffle in the province, although Li Tanglu had been retired for many years, he had still managed to place Chen Xiaoping in a remote Prefecture-level City as a vice-mayor, ranking just behind the Executive Vice Mayor.

Li Tanglu, frowning, glanced at the somewhat glaring blue noon sky outside the window, before saying, "Your rehabilitation here also ends today, and you must return to your position. As for Chen Xiaoping, make a move on it! Alas..."

Hearing this, Luo Tianlin knew that a big change was coming, and Chen Xiaoping needed to be moved to a better position.

"Old leader, as it stands, there are indeed two vacant good positions, one is for the Executive Deputy District Chief of Jiangjin District of our Provincial City; the other is for the Executive Vice Mayor of Dongguang City. What do you think?" Content orıginally comes from 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝗇𝗲𝘵

Li Tanglu pondered and then replied, "Hmm, let him go to Dongguang."

"Alright, I will make it happen within half a month after I return, no problem."

Luo Tianlin was still pleased, as the old leader, for some reason, seemed to have had a change of heart, giving off a vibe of finally being willing to foster his brother-in-law's career.

And as for Chen Xiaoping, at 49, he was indeed quite capable and it was time for him to climb another step, it wouldn't make sense otherwise.

As the brother-in-law of the strong Province Group Minister, with suitable abilities, it really wouldn't have looked good if he didn't reach a position of at least department level before retirement. Behind closed doors, what would people say about Li Tanglu?

In officialdom, personal relationships and proprieties matter a great deal. Many favors need to be acknowledged...
