Chapter 1342: whole body entire of scars!

The fire department left. The ambulances sent the injured to the hospital.

Dong Xuebing brushed the dust off his blood-stained shirt and walked out of the compound where everyone had gathered. Almost a hundred people, including leaders, staff, and family, gathered there.

Jiang Fangfang looked at Dong Xuebing. Thanks for the hard work, Mayor Dong.

Dong Xuebing smiled. Its great we have no casualties.

Jiang Fangfang looked at his shirt. How are you? Are you injured?

Dong Xuebing looked at his clothes. These are other peoples blood. I am fine.

Many rescued family members and a few Public Security Bureau staff walked over to thank Dong Xuebing. Someone even took off his shirt and gave it to him. Dong Xuebing did not reject. He took off his torn and tattered blood-stained shirt and wore that mans shirt. His scars were exposed when he took off his shirt. His upper body was covered in scars. Some were old scars, and some were newer ones. He had used REVERSE to recover but will not REVERSE for a long time. Thats why most of his scars remained. Everyone was shocked by his body.

A child got a fright and burst out crying.

Even the adults were shocked by his scars.

Meng Rui, Chu Peng, and other leaders were stunned. Chu Peng asked. Mayor Dong, you how did you get so many scars?

Dong Xuebing smiled. I was in the Public Security Bureau before.

Chu Peng felt ashamed. He was the Countys Public Security Bureau Chief and worked in the Public Security Bureau for a few years. But he did not have a single scar.

Everyone knew Dong Xuebing had been seriously injured several times.

He must have gotten those scars at work or saved others.

Many leaders, including the Meng Faction leaders, respected him.

Many thought Dong Xuebing had come to their County to gain experience and would leave after getting some credits. They met many leaders like this. But after working with him for a while, they were surprised. This guy is not those scholars or those weak young masters who came here to gain exposure and experience. Putting his combat abilities and working ability aside. Just his whole body full of scars proved he had risked his life to climb up the ranks. Those wounds he had were scary. Any deeper would be life-threatening. Others might have died several times if they were injured so severely. He survived those injuries and had no fear. The building was collapsing, and he rushed in to save people.

Mayor Dong is a leader.

He is also a Party Committee member.

How many leaders can do what he did?

Meng Rui walked over and patted Dong Xuebings shoulder. Well done.

Although Secretary Meng was unwilling, he had to show concern and praise Dong Xuebing.

Meng Rui left with his men to the hospital to check on the injured. The family quarters were cordoned off. The building did not collapse, but no one knows when it might happen. Even if the building did not collapse, it would be torn down.

Only Jiang Fangfang, Dong Xuebing, and the rest remained.

After recovering from their shock, the family members started complaining.

It is too scary!

How are we going to go home?

Thats right. This is a ticking time bomb!

Whoever wants to continue staying here can go ahead. I am not going to stay here anymore.

Yes. The building collapsed with a small impact. Who knows if our buildings are next?

Everybody was emotional. This incident was too scary and dangerous.

Dong Xuebing heard them and said. Dont be anxious or worried. We will arrange the lodging for the families affected. Mayor Jiang had proposed using 30 million RMB to repair or rebuild the family quarters in this mornings Party Committee meeting. This is for everybodys safety. But this incident happened immediately after we proposed. We were too late.

Really?

The County Party Committee is going to repair our family quarters?

Is the county going to build new family quarters for us?

They had waited for many years.

Dong Xuebing was helping the Jiang Faction gain popularity.

The other Party Committee members were suspicious. Dong Xuebings proposal timing was too accurate. It was as if he planted a time bomb at the Public Security Bureau family quarters and blew it up when the Meng Faction refuted him. Of course, they knew this was impossible. It should be a coincidence. This incident broke the Meng Factions overall control in Zhen Shui County.

But if its a coincidence

How can it be a coincidence?

Only Dong Xuebing knew. He knew about this incident from that future newspaper.

It was todays evening papers. The headlines were about this incident, and they stated the exact timing. Dong Xuebing remembered the report clearly. Although the building had collapsed partially and dozens of people were injured, no one died from the incident. Thats why he waited in the meeting. He would skip the meeting and rush to save that person if anyone was going to be killed in this incident. He would rather forgo this credit than see anyone get killed. He might be ruthless towards his enemies, but he has a conscience.

Why did Dong Xuebing propose to repair the quarters? Because of that, future newspapers reported the Party Committee\'s decision when the incident happened. Secretary Meng proposed to check and repair the government departments family quarters gas pipes and electrical wirings. Although it was not repairing the quarters, it addressed the family quarters safety issue. Secretary Meng also proposed to repair the roads in the meeting, and his proposals were better than Mayor Jiang\'s. Dong Xuebing felt the Jiang Faction would be lagging and might be a critical mistake. Secretary Meng might use their proposal and suppress the Jiang Faction further.

Thats why Dong Xuebing proposed it early in the meeting.

Dong Xuebings proposal disrupted Secretary Mengs plans, and he did not mention repairing the family quarters\' gas pipes and electrical wirings. The Meng Faction also opposed Dong Xuebings proposal firmly.

Dong Xuebing knew the Meng Faction lost.

It was a terrible loss.
