Officialdom: The beautiful leader took me to the top

Chapter 782: Tempering one’s character

outside the hallway.

Ding Rui was the first to stop, followed closely by Li Dong.

Seeing that the two of them had something to say, the others made a tacit understanding and did not follow, chatting in twos and threes.

Ding Rui took out the cigarette and handed it over.

Li Dong took the cigarette, thanked him, and took out a lighter to light it for Ding Rui.

While puffing away the smoke, Ding Rui took the lead and asked, "You should know the purpose of my coming to Tianzhou this time, right?"

Li Dong nodded, "I know, come to the Jiang family's wedding."

Ding Rui asked again, "What's the purpose of attending the wedding?"

Li Dong's tone was as usual, "Congratulations to Jiang Haichao."

Ding Rui said angrily: "You kid, you are so naughty!"

"I won't follow you around. The purpose of coming to Jiang's house is to suppress you, Li Dong!"

"Jiang Haichao's aunt is Wu Honglei. She is also a school leader of Han University. She is deeply loved by my wife, Lu Yueru."

"The reason why Yao Bingtian dares to cause trouble for Li Feng unscrupulously is because I, the master's wife, is behind him."

"Otherwise, given the status and level of my mentor, I would not make a fuss about a student's career just to deal with you, Li Dong."

"As for whether this is right or wrong, I won't comment."

"I respect my teacher very much, and I dare not not listen to my wife's words."

"There are no outsiders present today. Otherwise, I will never say more about these words, let alone admit them personally."

"Can you understand?"

Li Dong nodded.

Ding Rui made it very clear that Wu Honglei was from the Han Dynasty faction.

With Lu Yueru's support, Wu Honglei has a lot of energy in the Han Dynasty faction.

And if he wants to cause trouble for Jiang Haichao, Wu Honglei, the aunt, will definitely not sit idly by.

This truth is clear, but Ding Rui explains to him what the joints are?

Ding Rui continued: "This time I came to Tianzhou to attend the Jiang family's wedding, it was Wu Honglei who came to mediate."

"Although I don't know what Wu Honglei said about you in front of the teacher's wife, but there are definitely no good words."

"So, the master's wife has expressed her position that you, Li Dong, should be allowed to hone your character!"

Li Dong couldn't see his expression clearly and said, "I'd like to thank Teacher Lu for thinking about it. It's my honor, Li Dong."

Ding Rui said with deep meaning: "In front of me, there is no need to be weird."

"I know you are not convinced and feel that these big shots don't mean what they say."

"Normally, the matter last time has been settled, and people from the Han University faction will not take the initiative to cause trouble for you."

"But you also know everything about officialdom. How can you be absolutely sure about everything?"

"Actually, I can suppress today's matter, or even not come forward."

"But if I don't come, the pressure of this matter will be put on your brother."

"I promised you that I would ensure that Li Feng would not be affected by this incident."

"So, I can only handle the trip to Tianzhou personally!"

"With Song Ci supporting you, I believe you can handle this pressure."

"Only when you, Li Dong, are put under pressure can your brother not be implicated!"

"You, Li Dong, are living too comfortably, but your brother is living an uncomfortable life."

"Can you understand this?"

Li Dong was stunned.

Last time he was in the hospital, he had a profound conversation with Ding Rui.

My impression of Principal Ding is also very good.

At that time, Song Ci also asked him to take the initiative to make friends with Ding Rui.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, Ding Rui came to Tianzhou in person to support the Jiang family, which was full of bureaucracy.

Li Dong was not only angry, but also disappointed with Ding Rui!

These high-ranking big shots are doing it for a little bit of face.

To avenge a private vendetta like this is such a waste of social resources!

Did he do something wrong last time?

That's for sure!

Can the interests of the privileged class be above the law?

Can the dignity of the privileged class trample on the fate of ordinary people?

Although bullying the superiors and suppressing the inferiors is a common understanding in society, Li Dong felt that this was wrong.

At the very least, it shouldn't be placed on people like Ding Rui!

As a well-known expert and scholar in the society, I have received training and education from the country for so many years, and have enjoyed many benefits and policies provided by the country.

Don’t be afraid to use this energy for academics and research.

Rather, it is used to build relationships, create factions, and exclude dissidents!

They even created some kind of Han Dynasty faction, which would suppress those who disobeyed at every turn!

Such a waste of national resources and such cliques.

This is not only a disgrace to the country’s training, but also a stain on Han University, a sacred institution!

This is what makes Li Dong angry!

In his mind, neither Wu Ruiqian, Lu Yueru, nor Ding Rui should have anything to do with these dirty things in officialdom.

Unexpectedly, he thought simply.

The reason why Ding Rui is here today is because he has such a relationship!

With this thought, Li Dong said in awe, "Principal Ding, thank you."

"I, Li Dong, accept this favor from you."

"I know that with your identity and status, there are some things you cannot control yourself, and there is no need to explain so much to me."

"I know your appreciation and love for me."

"I also promise you here that no matter what my relationship with the Han University faction is on the surface."

"Privately, I am willing to respect you as an elder!"

Ding Rui smiled and said, "It would be great if you can accept this favor from me."

"At least, my hard work was not in vain."

"Just now, I asked Jing Qi to bring you a message, and I wanted you to come to the Jiang family's banquet for a toast. That's what I meant."

"Let me settle this grudge for you. It doesn't matter whether you are sincere or not. As long as you express your position, I can help you speak for your wife."

"The Han faction will no longer oppress you."

"But you kid, you are like a stone in a pit, smelly and hard!"

"It's just asking you to come over for a toast, it's like killing you!"

Li Dong scratched his head and said a little apologetically: "Sorry, Principal Ding, I disappoint you."

"I, Li Dong, am ignorant of current affairs and fail to understand your good intentions!"

Ding Rui waved his hand and said in a complicated tone: "I won't be disappointed."

"On the contrary, this is what I like about you Li Dong."

"If you really choose to bow your head today, or even become tactful and mature, maybe I won't say these words to you."

"In you, I seem to see myself when I was younger."

"Because of worldly affairs, I chose to bow my head."

"Whether I couldn't help myself or was forced by the situation, I couldn't stand up for myself. I lost."

"But in you Li Dong, I see hope."

"So Li Dong, I have a very ambivalent attitude towards you."

"I hope you bow your head, and I don't want you to get hurt."

"I don't want you to bow your head. I want you to be a light in this society."

"Can you understand?"

Li Dong's tone added a bit of respect, "Principal Ding, thank you for your respect."

"I, Li Dong, don't have that much ability, nor do I have that much ability."

"The social responsibility you mentioned is too ambitious and I cannot bear it."

"But I can promise that I will be a good policeman and will never let the party and the country down!"
