Power and Wealth
C.1143: Xiao Dong’s personal file grade!
Inside the villa.
Commander Yan and Dong Xuebing were talking softly with each other.
The other military officers shook hands with Zhong Lizhen. Although there were no reporters around, it was like an official ceremony.
“You have suffered, Professor Zhong.”
“No…. I had caused trouble for you all.”
“No. Do you have anything planned this afternoon?”
“I just returned and didn’t have any arrangements.”
“The higher-ups are very concerned, and Military Commission Deputy Chairman Zhang wants to meet you in the afternoon.”
“Deputy Chairman Zhang? Alright. I will listen to your arrangement. I can leave anytime and have brought back the research materials.”
“Your safety is our top priority, and the research is secondary. Deputy Chairman Zhang wants to have a welcome dinner with you.”
“Thank you.”
“We also need to settle your citizenship issue.”
“I want to get my Chinese citizenship again.”
“Ok. We will make the arrangements. What about your job? Do you have any department in mind? You can make your request to Deputy Chairman Zhang later.”
They finished talking after a while.
Commander Yan saw his officers had finished talking to Zhong Lizhen and did not try to persuade Dong Xuebing anymore. “Thanks for bringing Comrade Zhong back safely. I thank you on behalf of the Military Commission for your contributions to the nation.” Although Xie Guojian is the PLA General Political Department Deputy Director and holds a Lieutenant General rank, he could not join the Military Commission. Commander Yan is a member of the Military Commission, and he can represent them.
Dong Xuebing replied. “It’s my duty.”
They had finished talking and got to leave.
Commander Yan looked at the time and said to Zhong Lizhen. “Comrade Lizhen, we will move off in twenty minutes. Do you have anything to prepare?”
Zhong Lizhen replied. “No.”
“All right.” Commander Yan looked at his office and asked him to make the arrangements.
Zhong Lizhen looked at Dong Xuebing. “Is the USB drive still with you?”
Dong Xuebing slapped his forehead. “I have almost forgotten about it. Here.” He took out the USB drive and passed it to her. It contains Zhong Lizhen’s research data, and it’s precious.
Zhong Lizhen kept the USB drive cautiously.
Xie Guobang suddenly appeared at the stairs. He walked down slowly. Xie Guojian messaged him to inform him that they had finished talking, and he came down. He does not want to get involved with the military.
“Secretary Xie.”
“Secretary Xie.”
The officers stood at attention and greeted Xie Guobang.
Chen Xuekai smiled to Xie Guobang.
Xie Guobang nodded to Chen Xuekai. “Senior Chen, you are here. Xiao Bing, why didn’t you serve tea to our guests?”
Dong Xuebing quickly replied. “I will do it now.”
“Don’t bother.” Professor Chen laughed. “We are going off soon.”
However, Dong Xuebing still served tea to everyone.
Commander Yan said. “I thought you were not at home, Secretary Xie. Sorry to bother you.”
“You are doing your job. It’s not a bother.” Xie Guobang shook hands with Commander Yan. “My son-in-law and wife’s sister had caused a mess for you all. Thank you. Please sit.”
Xie Guobang’s rank is higher than Commander Yan, but their powers and ranking in the Party are about the same.
Commander Yan and Xie Guobang were old friends. “Secretary Xie, you have a good son-in-law.” He said and looked at Dong Xuebing. “Xiao Dong takes full credit for bringing Comrade Lizhen back.”
Xie Guobang laughed. “Xiao Bing is indeed capable.”
“He is more than capable. He has the guts and ability. I envied him even at my age. Sigh…. It would be great if I had a beautiful daughter.” Commander Yan asked. “Oh, is Huilan having a boy or a girl?”
Xie Guobang replied. “We don’t know yet.”
Commander Yan laughed. “It will be great if it is a boy. My granddaughter is about to be born. We can let them keep in touch in the future. Haha….”
Dong Xuebing was speechless. This is another proposal.
Dong Xuebing had heard of countless such proposals since Huilan was pregnant.
Xie Guobang laughed. “You got to ask Huilan. I don’t have any say in her matters.”
Commander Yan seemed to be joking, but he was serious. This was one of the reasons he came. He knows everyone in the Xie Family, and there will be a change of terms this year. Xie's family’s eldest, Xe Guobang, might not move, but the second, Xie Guoliang, will be promoted. The Finance Minister will retire, and Xie Guoliang, the first Deputy Minister, will replace him. Xie Guojian also significantly saved Zhong Lizhen, and she is closely related to the Xie family. Changes of Xie Guojian getting promoted are high. The Xie family is getting more influential, and he also thinks highly of Dong Xuebing. His combat power is out of this world, and his son should inherit his genes.
Commander Yan was not surprised Xie Guobang rejected him. Such a proposal cannot be decided like this.
Zhong Lizhen walked to Chen Xuekai when they were chatting.
“Teacher.”
“Have you decided which department to go to?”
“I am not sure, and I need your advice.”
Chen Xuekai analyzed it for her. “You will be a Deputy Research Center Chief if you join the military research center with your abilities and achievements. However, they will not let you be the chief. After all, you just returned.”
Zhong Lizhen replied slowly. “You should know me. I am not interested in positions or ranks. I only want to do my research.”
Chen Xuekai nodded. “Come to the Academy of Sciences, then.”
Zhong Lizhen replied without hesitation. “Ok. I will listen to you.”
Chen Xuekai said. “You worked in the Academy of Sciences before and are familiar with the work there. You don’t need time to settle down and can start immediately. You are skilled in several fields, and the Academy of Sciences is more suitable for you. It will be good for your future too.”
“Ok. I will join the Academy of Sciences and hope you will participate in my research. After all, we were the ones who came up with this idea.”
“Haha…. Your knowledge had suppressed me now. I am old, and it’s time for you all to take over.”
Twenty minutes passed.
A soldier came in and reported to Commander Yan. “Commander, the arrangement is completed. We can leave now.”
Commander Yan nodded. “Alright. Let’s go.”
“Yes.” The soldier saluted and left.
Commander Yan turned to Zhong Lizhen and Chen Xuekai. “Comrade Lizhen, Professor Chen, let’s go.”
Zhong Lizhen nodded and stood up with Chen Xuekai.
“Secretary Xie.” Commander Yan said. “We are leaving now. I am busy these few days. Let’s have dinner together again when Huilan and Xiaobing are around another day.”
Xie Guobang smiled. “Sure.”
Zhong Lizhen said. “I am leaving, Brother-in-law.”
Xie Guobang nodded. “Visit your Sister when you are free. If you don’t have any place to stay, you can stay with us. Your sister has nothing to do, and you can accompany her.”
“Ok.” Zhong Lizhen replied and looked at Dong Xuebing.
Although they had just met, they had gone through a lot. Dong Xuebing also can't bear to see her leave. “Aunt Zhong, I will be leaving in two days. I am unsure what the US will do after you return, and I am worried. Call me if you need help. I might not do much, but I can guarantee your safety. Don’t worry about troubling me.”
Zhong Lizhen nodded. “I know.”
“You can get my number from my Mum.”
“Ok. I will call you after I get a new phone.”
The soldiers there would feel insulted if someone else said these. It implied they could not protect Zhong Lizhen. But it was Dong Xuebing who said it. The officers exchanged looks and kept quiet. Dong Xuebing can say this as he has proven his abilities.
Dong Xuebing can destroy an armored vehicle and kill fifty soldiers by himself. He also escaped from thousands of soldiers in a lockdown city.
The military higher-ups and the soldiers involved in this operation knew about Dong Xuebing, and his personal file grade increased by several levels.
