Chapter 144: The Real Action Begins
Originally, Chen Fei might have been intimidated by Qi Heng's suspension of work, but at this moment, when he heard the girl facing difficulties so fearlessly and saw the tears in her eyes that were so heart-wrenching, he finally straightened his back again. His conscience was awakened once more. "Comrade Wang Ruihua, what are you saying? How could I possibly leave like this? I'm a man, how can I be less brave than you, a girl, when facing difficulties? Don't worry, at worst, it's just suspension of work, or I'll just leave here. As long as I'm still around, I won't let them get away with it."
Chen Fei's words were stern and powerful, and after saying them, he himself felt a lot more relaxed. Indeed, it was not easy for him to climb to the position of deputy county head, and he knew best how much effort he had put in along the way. But today, because of that one sentence, his official career might be forever terminated. However, he did not regret it, because he believed that evil cannot defeat justice, and that fairness is in people's hearts. He also understood that if he retreated today, he could probably keep his official position, but his conscience would be forever uneasy. Rather than being condemned by his conscience every day, he might as well thoroughly uphold justice once and for all. After all, with someone like Qi Hengquan as county head, there wouldn't be any good fruit to eat anyway. Rather than living in hiding, it's better to fight it out, and no matter what, at least have a clear conscience.
Chen Fei suddenly became tough, which was clearly beyond the expectations of Qi Hengquan and Wang Xiaodong. Seeing his determined look, the two finally got angry too, knowing that if they wanted to get things done today, they had to solve Chen Fei first, otherwise everything else would not be able to proceed.
"Alright, Chen Fei, I now announce on behalf of the Huodian Township Party Committee that you have been suspended from duty. From now on, you can go home and wait for further notice regarding when to return to work." With a wave of his large hand, Qi Hengquan directly made the organizational decision.
At this moment, Huodian Township is in the city for hospitalization due to physical reasons of the township party secretary. Qihengquan himself has exercised dual powers, serving as both secretary and township head. At this moment, his words are indirectly equivalent to those of the Huodian Township Party Committee, and his decisions can be considered organizational decisions.
"Haha, Chen Fei, you've finally fallen from power. You're no longer an official, but a commoner now. I'm not afraid of you anymore. Even if I beat you up, there's nothing you can say about it. Come on, kid, let's see your fists." Ah, Wang Xiaodong, as soon as he heard that Chen Fei had been dismissed from office, his attitude changed immediately. He had never liked him anyway, and now he finally had the chance to take action. Why would he wait any longer?
In a split second, Chen Fei was punched in the nose by Wang Xiaodong and started bleeding on the spot. Next thing he heard was Chen Fei shouting, "Wang Xiaodong, you dare to hit me? I'm going to call the police and have you arrested!"
"Ah, Deputy Village Head Chen, your nose is bleeding." The voice of girl Wang Ruihua rang out again.
"Haha, you called the police to catch me? Great! I'd like to see who dares to come and catch me in Huodian Township. Is it Song Dajie? Ask him if he dares!" Wang Xiaodong was not panicked at all after hitting someone, his attitude was still extremely arrogant, looking like he didn't take Chen Fei's reporting of the incident seriously at all.
Always standing outside the house, I heard Wang Xiaodong in the house openly calling a girl "Little Beauty" in front of a township head and a deputy township head. Suddenly, Feng Sicheng was really angry. He could tolerate the incompetence of his subordinates because this might be due to their limited abilities, but he couldn't stand by and watch such bullying happen right before his eyes. How could this be allowed? Is this still a people's government? What's even more infuriating is that in the township head's office, they actually staged a full-blown fight, with blood spilled everywhere. A surge of anger ignited within Feng Sicheng. With one swift kick, he struck the door of the township head's office, and it swung open with a loud creak.
