Chapter 607: “First Aunt”
Ministry of Civil Affairs Office building lobby.
Dong Xuebing’s curse caused the whole office to quiet down.
Everyone is stunned.
Chief Lin could not believe his ears. “What did you say?”
Dong Xuebing looked at him in his eyes and repeated. “Amend your #[email protected]#!”
“How dare you scold me?!” Chief Lin is furious. “Do you know what this place is?! How dare you create trouble here?!”
“Director….” Zhou Yanru panicked and grabbed Dong Xuebing’s arm. “Calm down.”
Other than Xie Huilan and Qu Yunxuan, no one can stop Dong Xuebing once he loses his temper. He pushed Sister Zhou aside and walked to Chief Lin. He pointed at him and shouted. “You still dare to ask me what this place is?! I should be the one asking you this question! This is the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and your duty is to serve the people and other government departments. We followed the procedures to come and submit the model unit award application and materials before 10 am today. But how did you treat us?! Ah?! We are made to wait for more than two hours. If we did not ask your staff to check with you, are you going to make us continue to wait?! What is this att.i.tude?!”
“Director….” Cold sweat is pouring down Zhou Yanru’s forehead. She knows Director Dong has a foul temper, but she did not expect him to go crazy in the Ministry of Civil Affairs. This is a Central Government Department, and they are the judges for the final selection. Creating a scene here is equivalent to them giving up this award.
Chief Lin got mad. “Then are you saying that I should put aside my work and welcome you downstairs?!”
“I don’t need you to welcome me.” Dong Xuebing looks at him coldly. “I understand everyone has work to do, and that’s why I waited for more than two hours. But what is your att.i.tude when you meet us? You brushed us off to the National Respect and Cared for the elderly’s model unit office without looking at our application forms. We checked with others and were told that the Ministry of Civil Affairs handles this. What’s the meaning of brus.h.i.+ng us to other departments?! Ah?! Are we fools for you to push us around?! What is wrong with your working att.i.tude?!”
“I am warning you.” Chief Lin points at Dong Xuebing. “You better watch your att.i.tude towards me!”
“This is the way I am.” Dong Xuebing shouted. “Why should I be polite to you when you gave us that bad att.i.tude?! Who do you think you are?! You had caused us to waste one day because of a simple thing. Look at the time now! It’s almost after office hours! After making us wait and run around the whole day, you told us you all were in charge of accepting the application and materials. We ended up waiting for more than one hour again for you. In the end, you tell us we had used the wrong format and want us to amend it before submitting it. Why didn’t you say so this morning?! Our format follows the guidelines issued by the National Respect and Care for the elderly’s model unit office. Which part is wrong?! Ah?! Tell me!”
Chief Lin is furious because of Dong Xuebing’s att.i.tude. He grabbed the application and materials from Zhou Yanru and threw them across the floor.
Pages of the doc.u.ment were scattered all over the place.
“I am telling you that the whole doc.u.ment is wrong. Go back and re-do the whole thing!” Chief Lin replied coldly.
Zhou Yanru shouted. “What are you doing?!”
Dong Xuebing’s eyes turned red when he saw Chief Lin throwing the materials on the floor. “Chief Lin! Who do you think you are?! You are throwing away a doc.u.ment submitted by Gra.s.sroot unit just because you don’t like it.”
Chief Lin retorted. “This is not a place for you to create trouble! Get out!”
Dong Xuebing narrowed his eyes. “I am returning the same words to you. This is a Government Agency, and it is not a place for you to do what you want!” He points to the floor. “Pick it up!”
Chief Lin can’t be bothered with Dong Xuebing, as he is only a Subdistrict Office Director. “Call the guards!”
The staff was whispering among themselves.
“Who is this person? Why is he so aggressive?”
“That’s right. I have never seen anyone who dares to scold others in the Ministry of Civil Affairs.”
“I heard he is a Subdistrict Office Director from other places. He has no idea what he is getting himself into.”
“Alright… hurry up and call the security office to send some guards here.”
“Chief Lin is angry now. Those two from the Subdistrict Office are idiots. Don’t they know this place is part of the Central Government?”
“Chief Lin, the guards will be here soon.”
Dong Xuebing continued pointing at the doc.u.ments on the floor. “I am telling you again. Pick it up!”
You want me to pick up the doc.u.ments?!
Chief Lin smirked and took a step forward. He stepped on the doc.u.ment on the floor and was about to leave the lobby.
An A4 paper on the floor is imprinted with Chief Lin’s shoeprint.
Dong Xuebing is furious. He raised his hand to grab Chief Lin by his collar and pulled him back.
Everyone in the lobby is shocked.
This guy is going to attack Chief Lin!
“Stop!”
“How dare you?!”
“Someone help! Where are the guards?! Get the guards!”
Many staff rushed forward to stop Dong Xuebing.
Suddenly, a middle-aged woman appears at the office lobby entrance. She walks in with an angry look. “What are you all doing?! Why is it so noisy?!”
Everyone looked at that woman and felt a s.h.i.+ver down their spines.
“Minister Xia.”
“Minister Yanzhen.”
Chief Lin is stunned and quickly pushes Dong Xuebing’s hands away before greeting politely. “Minister Xia.”
Zhou Yanru’s heart skipped a beat when she heard the word, ‘Minister.’ Her face turned pale, and knows they were in deep trouble. Minister Xia should be the Minister or Deputy Minister of the Civil Affairs. This has blown out of proportion.
Chief Lin quickly explains. “Minister Xia, it’s like this…. This person had come here to create trouble. He had scolded me and even tried to hit me. We have informed the guards, and they will be here to kick him out.”
But before Chief Lin can finish, the angry-looking Minister Xia suddenly smiles. “Xuebing.”
Dong Xuebing was stunned from the moment he saw this woman. “First, Aunt. Why are you here?”
First Aunt?!
This guy had addressed Minister Xia as First Aunt?!
Chief Lin almost fainted when he heard it. d.a.m.n!
