The whole room was shocked!
Zhang Tianbao hung his head and could hardly keep from laughing out loud.
Damn you, Du Yuesheng, you've got some nerve!
Du Yuesheng's face flushed with heat, feeling quite uneasy! Zhang Yuxing, this wretched woman, came to stir up trouble today!
Right away, Du Yuesheng waved his hands repeatedly, "Mayor Zhang, these are just family matters, not worth mentioning at such an important meeting as the Democratic Life Meeting..."
Zhang Yuxing coldly interrupted him, "Democratic Life Meeting doesn't allow discussion of officials' personal lives? Your fourth wife, young and beautiful, not even 30 yet, right? Heard you haven't been home for a long while, shirking your family responsibilities—this hardly seems fitting, does it? The Party Secretary is in charge of the whole city, if your own house is not in order, how can you lead the city's Party and government work peacefully? Perhaps Secretary Du should pay more attention!"
My my... that statement was spot on!
The whole room found it interesting, Zhang Family's young lady really set a different tone.
After all, many people didn't know that Du Yuesheng was on his fourth marriage, to a young beauty at that!
Du Yuesheng, embarrassed and uncomfortable, could only grit his teeth and say, "Fine, I accept Mayor Zhang's suggestions, well-taken, and truthful! Moving on..."
As he said this, he looked hopefully towards Lu Yuqing, not far beside him presiding over the meeting, desperately expecting her to steer the meeting's focus away from him.
But just then, Zhang Yuxing said, "Hold on, Secretary Lu, I still want to have a word with Secretary Du!"
The room buzzed again, everyone eager with anticipation.
This meeting today was getting quite interesting, indeed quite stimulating.
Du Yuesheng broke into a sweat, hurriedly said, "Well, Mayor Zhang, about that..."
Zhang Yuxing continued, "I have quite an opinion on Secretary Du's lifestyle issues, and I really want to bring them up. What about your wife displeases you so much, are you planning to leave her?"
The hall was shocked!
Such gossip, of course, was eye-catching!
Du Yuesheng struggled to keep his face straight, "Come on, Mayor Zhang, where did you get that information? It's totally fabricated... completely fabricated..."
Zhang Yuxing said, "I don't know about making things up, but I do know, Secretary Du is planning to divorce his current wife because you have set your sights on a new target. This kind of behavior, on Secretary Du's part, really smacks of coercive divorce and marriage! Or should I name who your new target is, would that be alright?"
"Stop, stop, just stop!" Du Yuesheng finally broke down, his face turning a blotchy red and black, sweat streaming down his face, achieving the very aim of the Democratic Life Meeting—red faces and sweats! He even suddenly stood up, calling out, in total embarrassment and discomfort!
The whole room was almost boiling over, but everyone held their breath, not daring to make a sound, not daring to laugh.
Looking at Secretary Du's performance, it seems Mayor Zhang was telling the truth!
Such gossip, thrilling and exciting, yet owing to Secretary Du's face being at stake, everyone had to hold it in, oh the discomfort!
But bringing this issue up really was stimulating, truly thrilling!
Lu Yuqing was holding steady, inwardly thrilled, she wanted to rush over and hug Zhang Yuxing right away, her former sister-in-law really acted like a true sister-in-law, still siding with her sister! Of course, she also wanted to hug Liu Zhizhong, feeling love for him, her own man was reliable! Seeing Du Yuesheng's miserable state was so satisfying, she had no worries for the future.
Zhang Yuxing then adjusted the microphone in front of her, speaking to Zhang Tianbao not far away: "Minister Zhang, you parachuted down from the provincial city and have seen much and know much. Could you comment on Secretary Du's behavior of coercive divorce and marriage, does it violate the moral standards of a Party member, does it deviate from the demeanor expected of a Party Secretary?"
Damn... Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦·𝘯𝘦𝘵
The room was shocked again! What a masterstroke of passing the buck...
Zhang Tianbao himself inwardly exclaimed, Good for you, Miss Zhang Family, roasting your brother who is tied up in old affiliations!
