Ji Yang felt something different in the atmosphere as soon as he reached his office, noting that the doors of several of the team members’ offices were closed.
"Little Feng, does today feel different to you?" Ji Yang asked as he saw Feng Jing walking by.
Feng Jing looked around, then walked up to Ji Yang and whispered, "Don’t you know?"
Her scent was appealing, and with her mouth almost touching his ear, even Ji Yang, who had seen many beauties, felt a stir in his heart.
After regaining his composure, Ji Yang asked curiously, "What happened?"
"Something happened at the provincial level."
"The measures this time are quite severe. The top official was transferred to the People’s Congress in Capital City, but to a lesser department. Usually, this indicates some issues. Now the second-in-command is overseeing operations. I only found out yesterday. Since you’ve been working in the field, you definitely wouldn’t be aware of the situation."
Ji Yang then remembered that, indeed, he had been to a village with poor signal recently and had spent a few days there, nearly cut off from the outside world.
"Chief Ji, generally when there is movement at the top, many people will be affected. Each of them has certain connections behind them, and those connections might be affected by this incident. I’m not too clear on the specifics myself, but I guess there will be changes from top to bottom soon."
Having said her piece, Feng Jing smiled and walked towards her office.
Watching the graceful figure of this woman, Ji Yang thought about her backstory. She had some connections within the city, though not as influential as some people. Latest content published on novel·fire.net
Entering his office, Ji Yang’s phone suddenly rang.
It was a call from Chu Shuyuan.
"Why couldn’t I reach you on your phone?"
"I was in the village for a few days. There’s a bad signal there. It was too late when I got back last night, and my phone was out of battery."
Chu Shuyuan said, "You really need to keep up with communications. Otherwise, a lot of things can go wrong."
"We are working on it. Our Huancheng Township might look easily accessible, but some of the villages are truly remote, hidden behind mountains."
"Let’s not talk about that. What I wanted to tell you is that there might be significant adjustments at the provincial level, including possible changes involving the Chu Family. It’s hard to say what the situation will be like then."
"Is it affecting you?"
Ji Yang was shocked. His backing was Chu Shuyuan, or rather, the Chu Family. If something happened to the Chu Family, it wouldn’t be good for him.
"Don’t worry too much. The overall direction won’t be affected. At most, there might just be some reassignments. There were some issues with the number one in the province, and he has been transferred. The Chu Family has been somewhat affected, of course. But it’s not just us; many will feel the impact. It won’t affect you too much."
How could it not affect me!
Ji Yang was still worried.
Chu Shuyuan continued, "Just knowing about the situation is enough. As long as you maintain a good work attitude and work diligently, they won’t do anything to you."
"I’m definitely going to continue working in the city. I don’t know what changes will happen next. If people in the Chu Family are affected, I might be impacted to some extent. But don’t be too concerned. At most, I won’t be shouldering the primary responsibilities. I’ve been wanting some downtime anyway."
Now, Ji Yang realized that his chances of relying on his sister for support in the future were considerably reduced.
"Sis, I’ll come to the city to see you."
"There’s no need. What’s most important for you now is to stay stable. Don’t do anything. I’m fine."
After ending the call, Ji Yang sat there, somewhat dazed. The Chu Family seemed to be significantly entangled in this incident, but he wasn’t sure to what extent.
