Chapter 36 - 35: Is This Possible? 1



Swap positions?

Both Nie Guowei and Ye Shuxian were surprised, but Ye Shuxian quickly recovered, looking at Nie Zhenbang with a different gaze.

In others’ families, parents wished their sons to become dragons and their daughters to become phoenixes. But in her own family, this seemed to be the exact opposite.

Now that she had heard Nie Zhenbang call her ‘mom’, Ye Shuxian’s heart was completely open. The initial emotional turmoil disappeared. When Nie Zhenbang first came into the family, Ye Shuxian had conflicting feelings. On one hand, she wished for Nie Zhenbang to be competent so that the Nie family would not be too pitifully defeated. At least, there would still be a man to carry on the family’s legacy. On the other hand, this was a secret child born from her husband’s affair, even though it was before she got married to him. When she saw Nie Zhenbang, she did sometimes wish that this incident had never happened. After all, it was a kind of humiliation for her.

But now, she no longer had these concerns. After Ye Shuxian’s mentality returned to normal, she regained her original cultured and refined demeanor.

Nie Guowei was still pondering the words when Ye Shuxian looked at Nie Zhenbang in surprise. Once she ascertained that her son wasn’t joking, she said, “Zhenbang, you are too audacious. Can this…can this be possible? Your father has only been appointed in Yuehai for a few days. Would the higher-ups approve?”

Although both Yuehai and Nanhai are special economic zones, the treatment there is quite different. Yuehai is a mere prefecture-level city under Yuedong Province, while Nanhai is not the same, being the first special economic zone in the country.

Firstly, in terms of rank, Nanhai is a notch higher than Yuehai as a bona fide sub-provincial city.

In addition, when it comes to policy preferences and support, Nanhai is superior to Yuehai. As a centrally administered municipality, Nanhai’s parent unit is still Yuedong Province. However, it has much more autonomy than Yuehai. This makes it easier to produce results.

Initially, when Nie Guowei was demoted to serve as the mayor of Yuehai, this was merely the best choice made by Nie Zhenbang in a hopeless situation. At least, it wasn’t a wasted effort. Nie Guowei completed the crucial transformation from deputy department level to department level here. That is the key point. It also laid a foundation for Nie Guowei’s future advancement.

“Mom, nothing is impossible. As the saying goes, where there’s a will, there’s a way,” Nie Zhenbang said with a smile. When Cheng Mazi was around earlier, Nie Zhenbang, considering Ye Shuxian’s dignity, finally took the difficult step of calling a strange woman ‘mom’. This was the first time he had ever done so, including both his past and present life. But after he got over this daunting step, Nie Zhenbang felt unbound. He doesn’t find it too challenging to call her ‘mom’ anymore.

Seeing the perplexed looks on the two’s faces, Nie Zhenbang continued: “However, you guys cannot propose this condition. This time, I seized the opportunity. Taking down the District Secretary Wei Wen, is absolutely feasible. This man, in collusion with his brother, misused his position for their private gain. If rightly carried out, even his boss, the acting Secretary Li, will have to take responsibility. With that, our opportunity will come.”

At this point, Nie Zhenbang deliberately glanced at his father, and then said, “Just not sure if you have the guts, dad. This Deputy Secretary Li, as far as I know, is a very influential figure. His supporter is none other than the Zhou family.”

Hearing Nie Zhenbang’s words, Nie Guowei chuckled and gave a reprimanding laugh, “You, this kid, are using reverse psychology. Although I don’t have that much ability, the people of Nie family have never lacked courage. You just tell us how to do it. Your mom and I will support you unconditionally. As for your Uncle, I will talk to him.”

At this time, Cheng Mazi walked in from outside. Seeing the family of three happily chatting, he smiled and said, “Guowei, Shuxian, the Deputy Secretary of the Nanhai Municipal Committee, Li, is here. He is outside and says he wants to meet with me. What do you think, should I meet him or not?”

Although Cheng Mazi belonged to the field army system, since he was stationed near Nanhai, maintaining a harmonious relationship with the local government was still necessary. Cheng Mazi did not want the situation to become irreconcilable.

He came in and asked this question, clearly revealing his own intention. Nie Guowei was about to speak, but to his surprise, Ye Shuxian pulled at his clothes. She gave Nie Guowei a sharp glance. Her husband was good at everything, but his political skills were too weak. Isn’t this Deputy Secretary position the one their son was aiming for? Meeting at this point wouldn’t be beneficial.

Then, Ye Shuxian took the lead and said, “Brother Cheng, do you have any difficulties? If you do, I won’t say anything. If not, we would like to see what Zhenbang’s attitude is. After all, he is the main party involved in this matter. This child really is spoiled by us. At home, he’s never been slighted. Even his grandfather indulged him. There’s nothing we can do. Our elders favor the youngest generation.”

Cheng Mazi was stunned for a moment, he hadn’t expected that he would misjudge the situation twice today. This Nie Zhenbang, despite his young age, actually held such a high status in the Nie family. Are they planning to cultivate him as the successor of the third generation? How come he hadn’t heard about this?

Cheng Mazi was a bit confused. He immediately laughed and said, “Shuxian, what are you talking about, what difficulties could I have? I don’t answer to the Yuedong province. My direct leader is your family’s eldest uncle. You guys can just decide how it should be handled. I will fully support you.”

At this moment, Nie Zhenbang also stood up and said, “Uncle Cheng. I owe you one. I know what you’re worried about. However, don’t worry, wait until the Secretary Li from the Nanhai Municipal Committee arrives. I assure you that everything here will remain the same as in the past. There will be harmonious relations between the military and the residents. There will be no impact.

Right then and there, outside the base of the 79th Army, two sedans were parked. Deputy Secretary Li, around fifty years old, whose hair had thinned quite drastically to the point of being bald, was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He looked very much like a successful man. Seeing Wei Wen standing in front of him like a grade school student, Deputy Secretary Li scolded, “You good-for-nothing! I’ve already warned you to be cautious, to be low-profile.

Look at your brother here, pulling this kind of stunt.”

Just then, a soldier came out from the base, looked around at the crowd expressionlessly, and asked, “Who is Deputy Secretary Li?”

Upon hearing this, Deputy Secretary Li immediately greeted him with a beaming smile, “That would be me, it is. Young comrade, you must be tired. What did Director Cheng say? Is he available now?”

The soldier indifferently glanced at Deputy Secretary Li. In the eyes of these soldiers, they don’t care if you are a secretary or not. In their sight, only the orders from the superior officer count. He simply said, “The director said that he is currently busy preparing for the annual regional military exercise. Come back tomorrow.”

Right at that moment, at the entrance of the base, along the road leading to Nanhai City, a car fleet headed towards them slowly with their police lights flashing. When the car stopped, a group of people stepped out from the vehicle in front. Seeing the two people leading the group, Deputy Secretary Li, who was originally observing from the side, was taken aback. His heart missed a beat, wondering what the hell was going on, even the Provincial Party

Secretary Xue Ligong was involved. He also saw the Municipal Party Secretary Li Qianjin accompanying Xue Ligong.

Deputy Secretary Li immediately ran over and said in a low voice: “Secretary Xue, Secretary Qianjin, how come you’re here?”
