Li Tianyang arrived early in the meeting room hall, his recent headaches mounting to what seemed like a lifetime's worth,—first, his forceful push for Wanbao Village had failed, then he coerced Secretary Zhou into resigning and taking the blame, and on top of that, he had to grease the wheels with a pile of money with the higher-ups, and finally, he was overshadowed by Xiao Yanzi at the County Committee meeting.
Sitting in the centermost seat, what irritated him the most was the sight of Dong Peng, who, armed with his proposal, was coercing him to ensure his bid won.
Damn it! To think being the County Party Secretary had come to this! Li Tianyang clenched his teeth fiercely; after much thought, he still blamed Liu Hun! Everything started because of this Liu guy! As long as Wanbao Village was pushed through, this disaster could be completely eradicated!
