Before noon.

It's past eleven o'clock.

Dong Xuebin inspected the cleanup work of Illegal construction at South Willow Lane Alley. Seeing that the debris of the collapsed building had been cleared away, he drove Cayenne back to Street Office and prepared to have lunch. But as soon as the car arrived at the Street Office compound, I heard bursts of firecrackers crackling from behind, which was very lively.

When did you start firing off cannons?  The Power of Time and Wealth 552

Who is married?

Dong Xuebin frowned and followed the sound while driving.

Peace Street, this is not under the jurisdiction of Dong Xuebin, but under the jurisdiction of Peace Subdistrict Office. This street is next to Dong Xuebin and their Office Building, which is the street diagonally behind. Dong Xuebin can be seen every time he opens the window in the office, very close. In fact, Guangming Street Office's workplace was not here before, but near Huai'an First Lane. However, due to demolition and rectification there a few years ago, Guangming Street Office moved to the edge of the street jurisdiction, adjacent to Guangming Street Family Building, and only separated from Peace Street Road by an alley. As for the division of jurisdiction, this side is bounded by the alley behind Guangming Subdistrict Office's work place, and the west end is bounded by the creek.

One hundred meters...

Two hundred meters...

Three hundred meters...

Finally found the source of the firecracker sound.

It was a relatively high-end restaurant. Someone was getting married, and the restaurant was packed with a long motorcade. The scene was quite grand.

Dong Xuebin lost interest after just one glance and wanted to go back as soon as he turned the steering wheel.

But suddenly, someone called him, "Director! Director Dong! Director Dong!"

Stunned, Dong Xuebin looked up and saw Wang Yuling in a white suit standing at the door of the restaurant waving to her. Seeing this, Dong Xuebin didn't want to save her face, so he drove over, thinking that this is where Wang Yuling said he asked for leave in the morning to attend a classmate's wedding.

The car stopped, Dong Xuebin opened the door and got out, "Director Wang, why are you here?"

Wang Yuling said with a playful smile, "A good sister of mine got married in high school, so of course I have to come. Director, are you also attending the wedding?"

"I was just passing by." Dong Xuebin said with a smile, "Okay, you can go about your business."

Wang Yuling Zhang Luo said, "Don't worry, the banquet will start soon, you can come too."

Dong Xuebin smiled and said, "Your classmate is getting married, so I won't join in the fun, right?"

"My classmate's lover is Director Chu's son. Many people here today are people from the system."

"...Director Chu?" It seemed like there was an impression.

"Well, Director Peace Subdistrict Office Chu Qinghua."  The Power of Time and Wealth 552

Dong Xuebin just remembered this name. It turns out that it was the wedding banquet held by the son of brother Street Office Director. He had only been here for a week. Naturally, he had never seen Chu Qinghua. However, the jurisdiction of the two of them was arm to arm, and Dong Xuebin had already heard of Chu Qinghua's name.

Wang Yuling's political wisdom has always been low, so Dong Xuebin must go in together.

Dong Xuebin smiled helplessly, it's true that they are all from the agency, but Chu Qinghua didn't even send an invitation to my buddies, so why should I go in? However, after thinking about it, Dong Xuebin frowned inwardly, thinking that this buddy is also Top Leader from your Peace Street Office brother's street. There was a wedding banquet at your director Chu Qinghua's house, and even Wang Yuling was invited. Why didn't you even call your buddy for an invitation? You don't take me seriously! Thinking of this, Dong Xuebin's eyes moved. Wouldn't it be a bit shameful to go back like this? Wouldn't people think that he left in despair because he didn't have an invitation? paralysis! How can this be done? I'm going in today! And the elements Brother Qian won't pay a penny! If you don't even give me this little face, why should I give you face?

It has to be said that Dong Xuebin has never been a master who plays his cards according to common sense, "Director Wang, okay, then I will join in the fun and let's go."

"Hey, who is this?" A person who seemed to be a family member came over.

Wang Yuling said with a smile, "This is our Street Office Dong Xuebin Director Dong."

This sound immediately attracted the attention of many people. They all looked at Dong Xuebin standing in front of Cayenne and began to whisper.

"Is this the Director Dong?"

"Guangming Street The one who took the lead in beating people?"

"Why did he come here in Porsche? Is this his car?"

"Let me go, what is this Street Office Director? He really dared to drive it."

"How many million does that car cost? Why is the license plate Capital license plate? 9999?"

"Isn't this car better than the first car for Director Chu's son's wedding?"

"Not only is it better, buying two high-end imported Mercedes-Benz is not as good as the price of this Cayenne. Is this really the concurrent director of Guangming Street Office? No way?"

"This is too impressive. Even the richest man like us Nanshan District doesn't have such an expensive car."

As soon as Dong Xuebin appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of many people. Most of the people present were cadres and staff of Peace Street Office, as well as some leaders of other streets. The events caused by Dong Xuebin recently may not have caused much trouble in the district, but the nearby Street Office was obviously However, he knew it. After hearing about those things, especially the people in Peace Street Office became very curious about this Top Leader from the brother street. When they saw it, everyone was a little speechless. They thought that the reputation was well-deserved. This master is really a thorn. Who in Nanshan District dares to beat ordinary people in public? Who dares to drive around in a car worth millions? That is Dong Xuebin dare!

Dong Xuebin certainly didn't mean to show off. You have to know that there were so many people in the system present. He would have changed a car if he came over. But since he was already driving, he didn't mean to dodge, and he would just take it as he came.

The bride and groom had already entered the restaurant, and after a while, everyone walked in one after another.

"Director, shall we go in too?" Wang Yuling asked.

Dong Xuebin didn't know anyone except Wang Yuling, so they just nodded without saying hello to anyone else. They followed the crowd into the restaurant hall.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man about fifty years old came up to him with a smile, "Is this Director Dong?"

Wang Yuling said quickly in a low voice, "Peace Street Office Director Chu Qinghua." The Power of Time and Wealth 552

Is it him? Dong Xuebin also smiled, stretched out his hand and shook it, "I am Dong Xuebin, Director Chu, right? Haha, I have known you for a long time, but I came here uninvited today?"

Chu Qinghua smiled and said, "You just took office, and I don't have your phone number here. I haven't been able to contact you in the past two days. It's just right."

"Haha, just don't disturb me. Congratulations, sir."

"Thank you, come on, please come inside." Chu Qinghua greeted him and left, smiling to pick up another leading cadre.

Although Chu Qinghua said it politely, Dong Xuebin's impression of him still hasn't improved and he can't contact me? How is it possible? My brother's mobile phone number is not the same. You still don't know if you ask? Besides, you always know my phone number, Street Office, right? I could contact Wang Yuling but didn't contact me? This is not a matter of being contacted but not being contacted at all. You have no intention of inviting me at all, and it will be useless if you try to persuade me.

There were a total of twenty tables in the hall, and the entire restaurant seemed to be booked.

Wang Yuling stayed with Dong Xuebin for a while, then ran to accompany the bride. At this time, Dong Xuebin also saw a familiar figure, smiled slightly, and walked up.

"Director Pan? Long time no see."

"Oh, it's Director Dong, no, now it's Director Dong."

The two shook hands and talked with a smile.

The person in front of me is Nanshan District Director of the Investment Bureau Pan Zhengyi. When I went to drive Investment Conference a while ago, Dong Xuebin met him, but did not talk in depth because he knew that Dafeng County Director of the Investment Bureau Pan Zhou was his cousin and robbed them Yantai County Pan Zhou, whom invested in, was hired by Dong Xuebin, and is now dismissed from his job. Dong Xuebin believes that even though Pan Zhengyi doesn't show anything on his face, he may not have a good impression of him in his heart. As for whether Pan Zhengyi hates him, Dong Xuebin doesn't know yet.

There was a commotion and the wedding banquet finally started.

The wedding officiant presided over the ceremony on the "chairman's" stage, and a variety of dishes were served by the waiters.

After Chu Qinghua finished his work, he immediately came over to greet Pan Zhengyi and other Street Office cadres and district cadres. Dong Xuebin was also invited to the main table closest to the "rostrum". The people at the table are all Substantive Post leaders of Zhengke Level level and above, with the exception of Wang Yuling. Although her level is not high, she is the niece of the district committee, so she was also called here by Chu Qinghua. Dong Xuebin knew Pan Zhengyi and Wang Yuling inside, and the rest of the people were very familiar to each other, and they didn't talk much. They were polite and didn't say anything else. The food and wine were all served, and many people at the twenty tables in the restaurant used their chopsticks.

The wedding banquet was not small, but it was not too big either. It was just compared with ordinary people's wedding banquets. Compared with the wedding banquets of cadres at the same level, what Chu Qinghua organized for his son was already very low-key.

The first car was a Mercedes-Benz, and the restaurant was of average reputation, so it really didn't matter.

In the system, there are still very few cadres like Dong Xuebin who are fearless and fearless. You can count them on your fingers. However, most of the other cadres are very strict about rules. They are afraid of bad influence and fear of being gossiped, so they try to keep a low profile. Some leaders who have many worries even I don't even hold wedding banquets for my children, just get Marriage Certificate, for fear of turning the happy event into disaster. This is probably the reason why Chu Qinghua did not choose to hold the wedding banquet on the weekend, but on the working day. At this level, there will be more and more things to worry about.

At the end of the ceremony, everyone applauded and congratulated.

Next, the bride and groom began to toast, and the first person to go to the table was the leader.

Dong Xuebin also put down his chopsticks, raised his glass to drink, and simply said congratulations. Wang Yuling was very active, joking around with the bride, and the two seemed to have a good relationship.

"Yu Ling, please stop making trouble."

"Hehe, it's fine if you don't make a fuss. Then I'll make a fuss in your cave at night."

Just as he was talking, a family member of the groom came in hurriedly, "District Governor Yuehua and Madam Yan are here."
