Power and Wealth

Chapter 586: Got to fight again!

9 am.

Guang Ming Subdistrict Office.

“Eh, the District Public Security Police Officers were here to for Director Dong.”

“I heard Director Dong and Director Guo had beat up the District Organization Department Chief Xue’s son.”

“Ah? They had beaten up Xue Xiaoliang?! This is serious. What happened?”

“I heard it was Xue Xiaoliang who had attacked them with a weapon, and Director Dong and Director Guo had retaliated as self-defense.” The Subdistrict Office’s staff did not expect such an incident after two days of peace.

Guang Ming Subdistrict’s Secretary of the Disciplinary Work Committee Qu Yiqiang heard about this incident and rushed to Dong Xuebing’s office. “Director, I heard Xue Xiaoliang’s injuries are quite severe.”

“Really?” Dong Xuebing does know about this.

Zhou Yanru is in Dong Xuebing’s office, and she added. “His arm and a few of his ribs are fractured.”

Qu Yiqiang took a deep breath and felt this incident could not be covered up.

Dong Xuebing calmly replied. “Xue Xiaoliang is too arrogant. He was attacking Director Guo with a retractable baton. He might be killed if I was not there.” Qu Yiqiang frowned but was not surprised. “Director, I heard Xue Xiaoliang had knocked down someone previous, and the victim was seriously injured.”

“Oh?” Dong Xuebing looks at Qu Yiqiang. “Did it happen?”

Zhou Yanru nodded. “I had heard about that incident before. Xue Xiaoliang is an aggressive driver, and that accident happened last year. The victim is a middle-aged man, and he was awarded a sum of money after amputation.” She paused for a second and added. “The compensation is not a lot, and it was covered up.” That accident did not blow up, but many people within the Government Service knew Xue Qingrong had suppressed it.

That little bastard is a frequent offender? Dong Xuebing felt he had done a good deed.

But Qu Yiqiang and Zhou Yanru look worried. This incident involves the District Organization Department Chief, and it will not be settled easily. Even if Dong Xuebing had retaliated because of self-defense, Chief Xue might have used other means to get back at him and Guang Ming Subdistrict. If Xue Qingrong wants to take revenge, it will be bad news for their Subdistrict Office.

“Director, this……”

“Go back to work. I will visit Xue Xiaoliang at the hospital now.”

Dong Xuebing left his office and drove to Nan Shan District’s Second Hospital.

Dong Xuebing had offended the Organization Department during the illegal building crackdown. Xue Gui is Xue Qingrong’s relative, and Dong Xuebing had beat him up and arrested him. He also ordered them to tear down their illegal buildings and caused Xue Qingrong’s trusted aide of his promotion. Their grudges had started, and Dong Xuebing had a bad impression of him because he tried to interfere with the tearing down of illegal buildings. He suspects Xue Qingrong had sent Peng Kun to stop the crackdown. But it blew up, and Dong Xuebing had to clear the mess for him.

Second Hospital.

Orthopedics ward.

Dong Xuebing went to the Doctor’s Office. A few doctors and two nurses are in the office.

“Doctor.” Dong Xuebing asked. “How is Xue Xiaoliang’s condition?”

A middle-aged doctor looks at Dong Xuebing. “Who are you?”

“I am Dong Xuebing.”

The middle-aged doctor frowned. “You are the culprit?”

Dong Xuebing knew the Police Officers had come before, and the doctors should know about him. “How is he now?”

“No comments!” The middle-aged doctor waved his hand. “We are discussing his treatment proposal. Get out now!” Dong Xuebing knew this doctor must be trying to suck up to Xue Qingrong.

A younger doctor said. “Director Wu, look at this X-ray.” That middle-aged doctor is a Chief in the Second Hospital, and he asked a nurse to send Dong Xuebing out.

The nurse told Dong Xuebing. “Our hospital cannot reveal our patient’s condition to others due to confidentiality. Please go back.” Dong Xuebing glanced at Director Wu and was amused. The police officer revealed that Xue Xiaoliang had not reported the incident last night and should have gone home. It was this morning when he came to the hospital and called the Police. If he can drive home last night, his condition is not serious. Dong Xuebing had seen many people trying to suck up the Leaders during his time in the government service and thought nothing about it. He walks along the corridor to look for Xue Xiaoliang’s ward.

Dong Xuebing had come to the hospital to visit Xue Xiaoliang as he was the one who hit him. Although he is not sorry and has not broken any law, he still needs to give Xue Qingrong ‘face.’

Ward 302.

Xue Xiaoliang is on the bed, covered in bandages. Xue Qingrong is sitting beside the bed, looking at him.

Dong Xuebing knocked on the door and entered. He places the fruit basket on the table.

Xue Xiaoliang saw Dong Xuebing and shouted. “It’s you! F*CK! Dad! It was this bastard!”

Dong Xuebing looks at Xue Xiaoliang.

Xue Qingrong looked at Dong Xuebing. “Why are you here?”

Dong Xuebing is unhappy with both the father and son’s attitudes. But he remained calm. “Chief Xue, I’m here to visit your son. I didn’t know Xiaoliang was your son last night.”

“I am warning you, Dong Xuebing!” Xue Xiaoliang shouted. “This is not over! It’s…. cough… cough… cough…. Not over!”

Xue Xiaoliang started coughing. His ribs were broken, and it was hard for him to shout.

Xue Qingrong quickly pats his son’s back. “Stop talking!”

“……. Dad! Cough….”

“Lie back on the bed!” Xue Rongqing shouted at his son and turned to Dong Xuebing. “I will get the Police to investigate this incident thoroughly!” Dong Xuebing is frustrated. “Chief Xue, if you know what happened, then….”

“I know what happened!” Xue Rongqing points to the door. “Xiaoliang needs to rest. Get out!”

Hmph! Are you trying to blow this up? Your son can attack me, and I cannot defend myself? Did your family set the laws?! Dong Xuebing felt disgusted by Xue Qingrong. Because of Xue Gui and Xue Rongqing’s interference previously, Dong Xuebing was scolded by the District’s Leaders and investigated by the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Now, he is trying to create trouble again. Fine! You can investigate all you want! I am not afraid because I have done nothing wrong!

Dong Xuebing couldn’t be bothered to speak with Xue Qingrong and left.

There’s nothing else to say as I had given you ‘face,’ and you are not accepting it.

Dong Xuebing left the ward, and Xue Xiaoliang hits the headrest. “Dad! That bastard is too much!” Xue Qingrong replied. “Stay out of this and rest well.”

Xue Qingrong had heard about this incident and knew it was his son who started it. Xiaoliang should not have used the baton as Dong Xuebing only needs to pay the hospital bills at most after injuring him. But he cannot let Dong Xuebing off lightly. The person in the hospital is his son, and he will lose ‘face’ if he does not do anything. Furthermore, his son’s last year accident in which he almost killed a pedestrian, is not completely over. It will be bad for his reputation.

Xue Qingrong thought for a while and called Director Wu to the ward.

“Chief Xue, are you looking for me?” Director Wu asked.

Xue Rongqing paused for a second. “How are the results of my son’s injuries?”

“It’s all minor injuries.” Director Wu misinterpreted Xue Qingrong. “Fractures need longer time to heal, but he should be recovered within two months.”

Xue Qingrong looks at Director Wu. “Minor injuries?”

Director Wu was stunned and stopped talking.

Xue Rongqing knocked on the table. “Conduct more checks. Check his brain, blood, liver, etc. My son kept saying he is not feeling well.”

Director Wu understood what Xue Qingrong wanted. He wants the injuries to be exaggerated. “Ok.”

After Director Wu left, Xue Qingrong looked at his son. “Are there any witnesses last night?”

Xue Xiaoliang replied weakly. “Other than a short and dark guy, there is no one else.”

“WAs it, Guo Mingfeng?” Xue Qingrong nodded and walked to the bathroom with his phone. He got his men to get Guo Mingfeng’s phone number and called him. “I am Xue Qingrong!”

Guo Mingfeng was stunned. “Chief Xue?!”

“Yesterday’s incident….”

“I’m sorry, Chief Xue! I didn’t know it was your son.” Guo Mingfeng had heard what happened this morning.

Xue Qingrong did not get mad. “Have the Police looked for you? Not yet? Ok. I want to know what happened. Tell me about the hold incident. Did Xiaoliang hit you, and was the holding a baton? Dong Xuebing’s statement is different from what my son told me. I know my son well, and he will never hit others. Director Guo, don’t be anxious to reply to me. Think carefully before you answer. Did my son attack you all first, or was it Dong Xuebing who attacked him?”
