"Is Niu Weiping here?" Zhou Chaoguo's face darkened, then he said, "Go tell him I'm not available. Also, notify Xiao Song. Get the car ready, tidy up, and head to the provincial office in ten minutes."
Earlier, Zhou Chaoguo was furiously angry and the main purpose of calling Niu Weiping over was to give him a beating before ultimately sending the matter back to Shuǐshān County for resolution. But now? It wasn't necessary anymore, as the city had made a decision. Moreover, he held the instructions of Secretary Nie in his hand, like wielding a tiger's skin. Whether or not he met Niu Weiping was no longer important. Even after reporting to the province. It was uncertain whether Niu Weiping would still be able to serve as the county party secretary.
The drive from Yizhou City to Ancient City took over three hours on the expressway. Zhou Chaoguo's official car passed through the toll station of the Ancient City ring expressway after four o'clock in the afternoon.
