The meeting at the city bureau ended.
Zhou Ning had yet to stand up when Mr. Hu from next to him came over, patting Zhou Ning's shoulder, his heart and eyes brimming with satisfaction.
"Not bad. I thought the cleanup of the dormant cases wouldn't show results until at least the end of the year, but you guys finished them all in less than four months. That's more than twenty cases, each one of them complicated and challenging.
I noticed Mr. Xu's hair has turned quite white, but you've all done well and made us proud. When I submitted these to the provincial department yesterday, everyone looked incredulous. Alright, the Dragon Boat Festival holiday starts tomorrow; rest up well, and take some time to recuperate."
As Mr. Hu spoke, he laughed heartily, Xu Dayuan pouring cold water on the side.
"Come on, leader, are you trying to get people to poach us?"
Mr. Hu sighed with a sense of emotion.
