Chapter 254: He Has Connections

After more than an hour, Shousheng Liu and Changjin Xiao finally met with Director Zhang when he came back.


However, when they saw the serious look on the face of Director Zhang, they both felt that it must be that someone had made Director Zhang really angry.


The two looked at each other and entered into the office, looking down.


Without asking them to sit down, Director Zhang asked directly, "Why does the name of Changjin Xiao appear on the list for coaches studying in America?"


"It is because of this. I had it right." Shousheng Liu took a peep at Changjin Xiao.


Shousheng Liu was the one who was in charge of the matter of studying abroad. If he failed his mission, and the director wanted to blame someone, he would be held responsible for it.


Nevertheless, Changjin Xiao was the beneficiary. At this time, Shousheng Liu hoped that Changjin Xiao would stand up to defend him.


Changjin Xiao was a good man, and he didn"t s.h.i.+ft the blame all onto Shousheng Liu. He said, "Director Zhang, it"s my fault. I wanted to go abroad to see advanced training ideas in America, so I asked Liu to get a quota for me."


Seeing Changjin Xiao took the responsibility onto himself, Shousheng Liu sighed with relief at once. But Director Zhang snorted on the other side of the table. He knew how this thing had played out, even without anyone telling him anything.


However, Director Zhang was quite satisfied about Changjin Xiao"s att.i.tude toward admitting his mistakes. He then asked, "The quota for going abroad this time is so few. Whose place was replaced?"


Shousheng Liu dared not conceal the matter. As a matter of fact, this kind of thing could not be concealed at all. He had to answer honestly. "For the track and field team, Coach Weidong Chu didn"t want to go, and instead they sent a young coach called Dai Li. He is only about 26. He is too young, and he is inexperienced in leading a team. Besides, he has no official t.i.tle. I think it is a waste to let him go to America. Therefore, we gave the quota to Chief Xiao."


"Dai Li? You thought he was young, powerless, and easy to bully!" Director Zhang"s words exposed the mind of Shousheng Liu.


Shousheng Liu smiled cunningly and said, "Director, don"t worry. I would never do anything that would trouble our bureau. I have checked about this Dai Li. He comes from Yuzhou City. He is just an ordinary coach, without any interpersonal connections in Qingcheng."


At that time, Director Zhang"s phone rang.


It"s Du. He must have checked out the coach who knows Supervisor Jiang. Director Zhang picked up his phone right away.


"h.e.l.lo, Du. How"s it going?" Director Zhang asked.


"I found it out. The coach is called Dai Li from Yuzhou!" Director Du replied.


"What! Dai Li?" Director Zhang almost jumped out of his chair.


And then he glared at Shousheng Liu resentfully.


An ordinary coach? No interpersonal connections? Then how does he know Supervisor Jiang of the Inspection Group of the Central Committee? This connection goes all the way to the top! Director Zhang screamed in his mind.


After hanging up, Director Zhang glared at Shousheng Liu with a murderous stare.


Shousheng Liu was frightened by this. When hearing Director Zhang saying the name Dai Li, he realized something was wrong. Seeing the murderous look in Director Zhang"s eyes, he dared not even breathe.


"Shousheng Liu!" Director Zhang growled resentfully.


I screwed it up. Director Zhang is angry! Shousheng Liu was frightened and shuddered in his mind.


At this time, the generous Changjin Xiao said again, "Director, I will give up this quota for studying in America. Let Dai Li go!"


Changjin Xiao"s words inspired Shousheng Liu, and he said hastily, "Great. Great. Let Dai Li go! I"ll call the track and field team immediately to inform Dai Li."


"Call him?" Director Zhang pounded on the table and said, "You go to the track and field team in person and explain it clearly. I don"t care what excuse you use. You must gain the forgiveness of Dai Li!"


"Yes, I"ll go right now!" Shousheng Liu said immediately.


By this time, Shousheng Liu realized that he had stepped into some deep trouble.



He went to track and field team personally and found coach Weidong Chu, but he didn"t find Dai Li.


"You mean Dai Li is on vacation? He went back home?" Failing to meet Dai Li, he became greatly depressed.


Weidong Chu nodded seriously. "Coach Li has been working overtime recently. He intended to finish this phase of training before going to America. However, since he can"t go abroad now, I sent him on vacation for a few days."


"Who said he couldn"t go? Coach Li will go to America. I"m sure!" Shousheng Liu said without any hesitation.


Yet Weidong Chu said with interest, "On the name list for those coaches going to study in America, there was no Dai Li at all."


"Uh, our staff made a mistake. Coach Li was missed due to a mistake," Shousheng Liu said hurriedly.


Weidong Chu just narrowed his eyes. How could he believe his poor excuse? Furthermore, he knew that Changjin Xiao had replaced Dai Li.


It must be that Li used his connections, or Shousheng Liu himself would not come here in such a hurry. It seems that Li has someone above! Thinking of this, Weidong Chu raised his hands in a helpless gesture. "Dai Li will return next Monday. How about you come again then, Chief Liu?"


"I"m afraid so." Shousheng Liu nodded and took his leave.


He had not gone far when his phone rang.


"It"s Director Zhang!" Shousheng Liu picked up his phone hastily.


"How"s it going? Have you seen Dai Li? Everything is explained clearly?" Director Zhang asked desperately.


"Director Zhang, I didn"t see him. He"s on vacation and went back to his hometown in Yuzhou. He will come back next Monday, so I intend to come early then..."


Before Shousheng Liu could finish, there came the voice of Director Zhang, "By train or by bus, you go to Yuzhou now. In a word, find Dai Li and explain everything clearly!"


"Go to Yuzhou? Now?" Shousheng Liu looked at the time. It would be dark even if he took the high-speed railway to Yuzhou. And after dark, there would be no high-speed train or bus returning to Qing City, which meant that he would have to spend a night in Yuzhou.


"Go now! After seeing him and explaining it clearly, call me to report at once!" As if he suddenly thought of something, he added, "And you pay the fees of transportation and accommodation yourself! Never expect the bureau to reimburse the expense caused by your own trouble!"


Director Zhang hung up after finis.h.i.+ng his words, leaving Shousheng Liu looking at his phone, gloomy and depressed.


"Why does Director Zhang react so fiercely this time? It seems that this Dai Li is more than an ordinary coach. He must have someone connections above!"
