Chapter 211: Chapter 0211: Charity Gala [Part 1]

Pei Wending saw that Du Xingfa had left and then left the Provincial Hall himself, preparing to return to East River to continue presiding over the work at the municipal bureau.

For Pei Wending, he had made the right choice. Because from Tong Zhong’s words, both said and unsaid, it seemed very likely that he would be promoted further.

As for Du Xingfa, who had hurried back to his own home, when he saw his disappointing son, he was so angered that he immediately slapped him across the face.

"Dad! Why did you hit me!" Du Liqun said with a face full of grievance.

"You tell me, what kind of trouble have you gotten into outside to make Laozi this mad!" Du Xingfa was truly unable to contain his rage.

Du Xingfa’s wife, a woman with an obviously sharp and harsh tone, shielded her son behind her and said, "What are you going crazy for, hitting your son as soon as you come in? Don’t you know your son is still injured, and has just been kicked out by those nonsensical people at the Provincial Hospital? You should reason with those people at the hospital instead of coming home and hitting your son; have you lost your mind?"

With his face red and neck thick, Du Xingfa said, "I’ve gone mad, ask this foolish son what he has been up to outside. It’s his own fault that he was thrown out by the hospital; do you have any idea that I was suspended from my post by the Provincial Committee Secretary himself?"

"Ah!"

Upon hearing Du Xingfa’s words, both his wife and Du Liqun’s faces simultaneously turned pale.

Although Du Liqun had heard that his father was suspended, he had not imagined it to be this serious, being suspended directly by the Provincial Committee Secretary; wasn’t this the same as saying that his father’s political career was over? What else did he have to be arrogant about?

"What exactly did you do outside!" At this time, the sharp and harsh woman also exploded.

Without her husband, what kind of official’s wife would she be?

At this moment, Du Liqun was also pale, not daring to keep anything hidden anymore, and recounted all his deeds without omitting anything.

"Dad, aside from the man who broke my fingers, I’ve investigated all the rest. They don’t have any background," Du Liqun said.

Du Xingfa really hadn’t expected his son to have done so many things behind his back. However, just as his son had said, aside from the Ye Bingxin incident, there really wasn’t anything that could alert the Provincial Committee Secretary.

"It seems the problem lies with that young man. Have you investigated him?" Du Xingfa had regained his composure at this point.

Du Liqun said, "I have investigated him. He’s just a student at East River University, with no background at all."

Du Xingfa’s wife then said, "Xingfa, is it possible that you have offended someone yourself? Otherwise, I could ask my father to help you inquire."

Though Du Xingfa’s wife wasn’t good-looking, her father had been the former director of the Public Security Department, and still had quite some connections in the province.

Having calmed down, Du Xingfa said, "Let me first ask Pei Wending and see what this young man is all about."

Du Liqun said, "Dad, he’s really just a university student, do we need to be so wary of him?"

Du Xingfa said, "You know nothing, aside from knowing he is a university student, do you know anything else?"

Du Liqun was taken aback, then shook his head, saying, "I don’t know."

Du Xingfa said, "You don’t know anything else, and yet you make such reckless judgments; you won’t even know how you died."

After finishing, Du Xingfa once again made a call to Pei Wending.

When Pei Wending saw the call from Du Xingfa, knowing it was still about the earlier matter, he answered the call.

"Brother Pei, I’ve just severely disciplined that beast. He knows he was wrong now. However, Brother Pei, I truly have no idea whom that beast has offended. Even if I wanted to apologize, I wouldn’t know where to find the person. I ask for your guidance. Right now, the most suspicious person is that young man; do you happen to know him?" Du Xingfa was now addressing him as Brother Pei, obviously trying to further close their relationship.

Pei Wending, who was not the type to kick someone when they were down, and the two had also been classmates, graduating from the police academy the same year.

Pei Wending said, "Director Du, I know who the young man you’re talking about is. But in consideration of our past friendship, I would advise you not to attempt to investigate him, or what awaits you will not just be a suspension but imprisonment. For this matter, I stand by what I said before. If your son hasn’t offended him too gravely, then go and apologize properly. If the offense is serious, even seeking the Provincial Committee Secretary through your father-in-law will be in vain."

"Hiss!"

Hearing Pei Wending’s words, Du Xingfa also drew in a breath of cold air.

"I have said all I can." After saying this, Pei Wending hung up the call and then made a call to Ye Bingxin.

Clearly, after this incident, Pei Wending would take even greater care of Ye Bingxin.

Seeing Du Xingfa end the call, Du Liqun immediately asked, "Dad, what’s the situation? Can grandpa help?"

"Slap!"

Du Xingfa slapped him again and then asked sternly, "Tell me! What exactly happened between you and that young man, don’t miss out on a single word."

Du Liqun was already bewildered from being hit so much today, and seeing his father looking as though he wanted to kill him, he dared not leave anything out, telling everything word for word.

When Du Xingfa heard from his son how he had offended Chu Feng, he trembled with rage.

Seeing his father’s hand raised again, Du Liqun hastily backed away.

Ultimately, Du Xingfa’s slap landed heavily, and then he sat down abruptly, seemingly aged a lot in an instant.

"What now?" Du Xingfa’s wife continued to press.

Du Xingfa said, "Let’s just let this matter go. No one is to mention it again. Being suspended is the best outcome for me. Don’t even think about asking your father, that person is not someone we can afford to provoke. If you go to him, it’s possible that our family can only reunite in jail."

"Hiss!"

Hearing these words, Du Xingfa’s wife also sucked in a breath of cold air.

"Slap! Slap!"

After she finished speaking, she continually slapped her own son.

"Mom, my hand! My hand!" Du Liqun screamed in pain.

Meanwhile, as familial violence was playing out at Du Xingfa’s place, at Chu Feng’s location, He Zhen and Gu Zhong had had quite a bit to drink and were somewhat tipsy. Once the two old men got drunk, they would bicker again, just like two old children.

Faced with such behavior from the two old ’children,’ Chu Feng could only feel helpless.

With Friday arriving, Chu Feng also went home early. After all, he had promised Cui Jingyan to go together.
