The election meeting was set to officially start at 1:30 PM, and it was now just five minutes shy of that time. Li Tangguang and Li Qiang, both candidates, had already taken their seats on the stage designated for the candidates.
As for Li Fangping, the entire village knew that the kid had been arrested and faced sentencing, so no one inquired further.
Li Tangguang sat with a stoic expression, upright and composed, his face showing a calmness that belied the emotions beneath.
Everybody knew that although the three candidates were closely matched in strength, Li Tangguang was now the one with the highest support rate!
"Village Chief!"
"Village Chief!"
"Village Chief!"
Li Xingkui, hearing what seemed like someone calling out to him, turned his head only to see a group of people smiling and greeting Li Tangguang.
At that moment, Li Tangguang also turned his head and, unable to hide the joy in his heart, smiled and nodded back at them.
