People come and go, and tea gets cold!
This saying is absolutely true. After Luo Zhijun was taken away by the city disciplinary committee, Su Dingfang decisively abandoned him, showing no father-in-law feelings whatsoever.
Just like Lin Hao in a past life, after an incident, Su Dingfang was ruthlessly heartless, even kicking someone when they're down, which truly chills the heart.
Originally, Lin Hao felt a bit guilty for cuckolding him, but seeing his attitude now, he suddenly felt he should do it a few more times to vent his anger.
Of course, with real evidence of Luo Zhijun's indulgence in drinking, gambling, and womanizing, the court would certainly side with the woman and rule the couple divorced.
In fact, Su Dingfang also knew this, but he was worried that Luo Zhijun causing trouble at the county party committee and government would negatively impact Su Muchen.
Additionally, Luo Zhijun could frame Su Muchen, claiming that she knew about his embezzling and bribery.
In this case, Su Muchen would definitely get entangled. Even if she weren't punished, her position as deputy county head would probably be jeopardized.
Su Dingfang isn't unwilling to act against Luo Zhijun, but being caught at a weak spot makes him wary, still hoping the county party committee and government could relent and transfer Luo Zhijun back to the city.
Fortunately, Li Jingyi had long understood that the first time she came to Wucheng County and was drugged, Luo Zhijun's shadow was behind it, leaving Su Dingfang no opportunity at all.
After the two of them discussed for a while in the office, Lin Hao finally left.
Su Dingfang immediately called his daughter, briefly explaining today's standing committee meeting.
"What? Public announcement soon?" Su Muchen exclaimed in joy.
"Yes, although Lin Hao didn't speak during the meeting, later, both deputy county heads will be working under him, so you both were approved by him, thanks to Lin Hao this time..." Su Dingfang said with a smile.
"Then I'll invite him to dinner; you are coming back tonight, so we can gather," Su Muchen said excitedly.
"Dinner is a small matter. The issue now is getting that bastard Luo Zhijun to quickly divorce you," Su Dingfang addressed the main point.
"Dad, I want a divorce too, but that bastard just won't sign," Su Muchen said, instantly showing anger at the mention of Luo Zhijun.
"I just discussed with Lin Hao; there are many ways to handle Luo Zhijun, but the primary issue is for you both to divorce first..." Su Dingfang relayed Lin Hao's message.
Upon hearing that Lin Hao was helping her, Su Muchen felt immensely grateful, believing that her and her sister's advanced offerings to him were ultimately rewarding.
"If that's the case, I'll proceed with the divorce through court procedures..."
"As for the court, the procedures are very complicated. Let your lawyer submit the divorce case first. I will talk to the presiding judge to take a simplified procedure, which should take about seven days."
"Seven days? So fast?" Su Muchen was also incredibly surprised.
In general, a divorce case would take at least a month, even longer, but if there are connections, naturally the time can be shortened. The shortest time would be just seven days.
"Seven days is fast? I'd rather you two divorce tomorrow." Su Dingfang said coldly.
In fact, he is also a ruthless person, but he wanted to leverage Lin Hao's power to deal with Luo Zhijun, which is why he hadn't acted yet.
After all, this old fox has been in the position of Director of the People's Congress for many years and is not someone to be trifled with in the officialdom.
Su Muchen naturally wanted to divorce soon and follow Lin Hao, binding together on the fast track to promotion.
"Dad, what if Luo Zhijun causes trouble at the county party committee and government?" Su Muchen worriedly asked.
"Cause trouble? Lin Hao said he wishes he would cause trouble, as it would be the perfect opportunity to stomp him out, so you don't need to worry about that," Su Dingfang reassured with a smile.
"Does Lin Hao really have that assurance? I'm afraid Luo Zhijun might go down fighting and drag me into it," Su Muchen was still a bit scared.
After all, Luo Zhijun now has nothing, taking a barefooted don't-fear-the-shod attitude. If he randomly incriminates something onto Su Muchen, it would be troublesome.
"Daughter, don't worry, Lin Hao is currently on the rise in power, and even several standing committee members look to his face to act, likely becoming county head soon, naturally not fearing a small character like Luo Zhijun," Su Dingfang laughed happily.
"Will Lin Hao really formalize the position?" Su Muchen doubted, after all, Lin Hao was just promoted not long ago.
"Because during the executive meeting today, the newly arrived County Head Wei Dong gave no speeches, obviously having shifted most of his work to Lin Hao. This temporary posting as county head is just to buy some time for Lin Hao. I believe he'll formalize soon," Su Dingfang had this much insight.
"Then we really need to hold on tight to Lin Hao's big leg," Su Muchen said joyfully.
"Of course we want to hold onto his big leg, but since your sister divorced him to promote you, they can't remarry right away, which is worrisome," Su Dingfang pondered, wearing a troubled expression.
"Never mind, after I secure the deputy county head position, they can remarry. Lin Hao still has feelings for my sister, it's just that my sister's insistence on the divorce hurt him, so they can slowly mend the relationship," Su Muchen suggested.
Why did Lin Hao want to take on both sisters together?
Wasn't it because both she and her "stepmom" Peng Yunyan looked down on him, instigated her sister to forcibly divorce him, and pissed Lin Hao off leading him to take revenge on the sisters?
"Wasn't it you and your mom gossiping behind the scenes? Otherwise, why would your sister divorce Lin Hao?" Su Dingfang scolded.
"Weren't you agreeing back then too?" Su Muchen pouted in defense.
"Agree? I took the divorce agreement and kept it safe back then, saying we'd discuss it upon my return. Who knew your sister still pushed Lin Hao to sign and divorce, what a disobedient child!" Su Dingfang felt smug, thinking he had foresight recognizing Lin Hao's potential for success.
In reality, if Lin Hao had been exiled like Luo Zhijun, he'd probably have a different tune.
"Dad, Lin Hao still has feelings for my sister, especially now that Zhou Chenghua from the education bureau has been promoted, making my sister the head of the education bureau," Su Muchen tactfully revealed.
"Ah... Lin Hao wants to promote your sister?" Su Dingfang was overjoyed.
"Of course, but you have to keep this confidential," Su Muchen urged.
"Understood, did your dad serve all these years as Director of the People's Congress for nothing? Doesn't he understand such basic rules?" Su Dingfang laughed happily.
Both daughters getting promoted at the same time was truly a double blessing, as if the Su family ancestors were bringing good fortune!
However, both daughters' promotions were all thanks to Lin Hao's support behind the scenes, so they must cling tightly to this young man's big leg. The rıghtful source is 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅✦𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾✦𝗇𝖾𝗍
Now the issue is to change Peng Yunyan's attitude, lest she continues to chatter behind their backs, really angering Lin Hao, and both daughters' promotions would be in vain.
