Invincible Young Master in the City
Chapter 623 - 623 619 Return to Hua Hai City

623: Chapter 619: Return to Hua Hai City 623: Chapter 619: Return to Hua Hai City After Ye Fan left, Feng Xixing sat on the sofa for quite a while before he finally stood up, walked to his desk, sat down, and picked up the phone on the upper right corner of his desk to call the deputy minister of the municipal organization department.

“What?

You’re recommending Ye Fan?” the deputy minister of the municipal organization department asked in surprise.

This was the second time he had heard someone recommend Ye Fan.

Tang Xianlong had already recommended Ye Fan to him yesterday.

Of course, he wasn’t unaware of Ye Fan—who had been mentioned in the serial murder case in Mingde County earlier, then in the case of a pickpocket gang being rooted out in Mingde County, and finally in the recent news feature about a major cleanup around Mingde High School.

“Yes.

Although Comrade Ye Fan has not been at the Mingde County Police Department for long, his political integrity is solid, his capabilities are outstanding, and he is responsible—a very good comrade indeed,” Feng Xixing answered.

“Uh-huh, I understand,” said the deputy minister of the municipal organization department, ending the conversation without further words.

After hanging up, the deputy minister of the municipal organization department mused aloud, “What exactly is Ye Fan’s background that he could secure recommendations from both Tang Xianlong and Feng Xixing?

His qualifications clearly don’t match.”

The deputy minister of the municipal organization department, named Bi Chengyun, was a middle-aged man in his early forties, wearing glasses.

Musing to himself, he walked out of his office to report to his superior, the minister of the municipal organization department, Lu Nanguo.

This time, the reshuffling of the top leadership of the Mingde County Police Department was personally handled by Lu Nanguo.

Normally, such tasks would have sufficiently been overseen by a deputy minister like him.

Of course, it wasn’t to say that the municipal organization department could move all county positions at will; their main job was still to assess the candidates and coordinate the various interests involved.

For instance, the choice of police chief under normal circumstances would be elected by the people’s council of the county during the election term, with significant recommendation power held by the county party secretary and a considerable appointment right held by the municipal police department.

Conflicting interests necessitate the involvement of the municipal organization department to mediate.

However, to prevent local forces from overstating their influence, the superior organization department occasionally parachutes some leaders to take over.

These parachuted leaders, typically there solely for political achievements, would work for a few years and leave, not easily corrupted by local forces.

Each locality balances native and external factions against each other, ensuring healthy local government operations.

Such leaders are not elected locally but rather are parachuted in by the superior organization department.

Ye Fan was one such parachuted leader.

After hearing Bi Chengyun’s report, Lu Nanguo nodded and said, “Understood.”

After Bi Chengyun left, Lu Nanguo lowered his head to continue reviewing documents—the file in front of him starkly was Ye Fan’s.

Lu Nanguo felt somewhat bothered as he looked at the file.

The file was too clean, suspiciously so.

“A promotion to major at twenty-two from a regular working-class family, how is that possible?” Lu Nanguo muttered, massaging his temples, “Even if his luck was good enough to earn several commendations, how do you explain him earning a bachelor’s degree in the army?”

He had reviewed countless profiles and could tell at a glance that this file was fake.

He had even called a superior to verify it and was told there were no issues with the file.

“Tang Xianlong and Feng Xixing both unreservedly recommended Ye Fan despite his questionable qualifications; perhaps this man is worth considering,” thought Lu Nanguo.

He was well aware of the reason behind the reshuffle of the top leadership of the Mingde County Police Department—it was to parachute a high-profile officer over.

He had already reviewed the file of that officer: Zhao Lina, previously the head of the criminal police in Hua Hai City Police Department.

To make room for Zhao Lina, Tang Xianlong was promoted early to the municipal police department.

To reduce the constraints Lina would face once in office, Feng Xixing was transferred out, pairing Lina with a relatively weaker second-in-command.

Appointing Zhao Lina as the chief of the Mingde County Police Department was just the first step, followed by her taking over as the secretary of the Political and Law Committee of Mingde County, making her one of the standing committee members of the county.

“Actually, Ye Fan might also be worth considering,” Lu Nanguo thought.

Around four in the afternoon, after settling his work, Ye Fan called Xu Xiangli, Wang Xianzhong, and Miao Jian to arrange the weekend duties.

He then prepared to leave work and drive back to Hua Hai City.

However, around four-thirty, Ye Fan received a call from Cui Wenwen.

“Cousin, I’ve officially transferred to Mingde High School,” Cui Wenwen said sweetly over the phone.

Ye Fan chuckled, “Good, make sure to study hard from now on.”

“Okay,” Cui Wenwen replied, “Cousin, come over to my house this weekend, okay?

My mom will cook lots of delicious dishes.”

“Hehe, thanks.

But I’m busy this weekend, maybe next time,” Ye Fan chuckled.

Cui Wenwen responded regretfully with an “Oh,” then said, “Alright, you must come to my house next weekend.”

Ye Fan chuckled, “Alright, if I don’t have work scheduled next weekend, I’ll come over.”

Cui Wenwen cheered and called out, “Thanks, Cousin!”

After hanging up, Ye Fan still had a smile on his face.

Compared to Qin Mengyao, Cui Wenwen was undoubtedly a very pleasing and pretty young girl.

He was also happy to interact with Cui Wenwen.

Besides, he didn’t have many friends in Mingde County.

Finally, when five o’clock came and he was off work, Ye Fan drove away from the police station, went to Sunshine Residential District to pick up Wei Ziling and Li Xing.

To save time, Wei Ziling had already dragged her luggage to the entrance of the residential district to wait.

Compared to Ye Fan, Wei Ziling was even more eager to get home.

After helping to load the luggage into the car, Ye Fan got back in, turned the car around, left the city area, and after getting on the highway, he sped toward Hua Hai City at a speed of one hundred kilometers per hour.

Around seven, Ye Fan had already entered Hua Hai City.

However, Hua Hai City was quite large, and it would take another half hour or more to really enter the main city area.

Exiting the ring road highway, at a subway intersection, Ye Fan stopped the car and let Wei Ziling out to take the subway home.

Actually, Ye Fan intended to drop Wei Ziling right in front of her residential district, but since she insisted otherwise, he let it be.

Half an hour later, Ye Fan drove to the base of Huayang Martial Arts Gym.

By then it was around eight o’clock, and the entire city was lit up, with colorful neon lights everywhere, including the huge neon sign of Huayang Martial Arts Gym which was brightly lit, and the gym itself ablaze with lights.

The gym was a leisure training venue, and this was its busiest time.

Parking the car in the underground car park, Ye Fan took the elevator to the third floor and entered Huayang Martial Arts Gym.

Upon entering the gym, he immediately felt the vibrant atmosphere and lively energy.

Just as Ye Fan was about to look for Lu Xiaoman, suddenly a figure darted over and gave him a bear hug.

Ye Fan instinctively kicked the figure away.

“Ouch!

My butt!” the figure exclaimed as it landed on the red carpet, making a rough, exaggerated yell, “Ye, can’t you go easy for once?

And here I was being so enthusiastic.”
