The pinnacle of power: starting with having sex with a female leader-Chapter 149 - 0: Nanny-Level Care
Shen Manwen had clearly discussed this topic with Liu Xi beforehand, so there were no surprises on her part.
On the side, Xue Yang’s face flushed with excitement once again!
Being the County Chief is awesome!
Promoting A Yuan to the Director of the County Government Office, that’s a real position with substantive authority at the division level!
It’s absolutely as valuable as being the top leader of any town or street!
In the minds of the three, Cheng Yuan would definitely accept Shen Manwen’s arrangement with gratitude and be moved to tears.
However, to the surprise of all three, Cheng Yuan declined Shen Manwen’s kindness without hesitation.
"County Chief, thank you for your trust and guidance! But I can’t take Director Liu’s position, I can’t be your number one secretary."
Shen Manwen glanced at Liu Xi indifferently and remained silent.
Liu Xi quickly stood up, looking at Cheng Yuan very sincerely.
"Director Cheng, to be honest, I admire you! I had already lost hope, but you turned the tables in an impossible situation and successfully retained the County Chief! You retained the hope of us three!"
"In terms of abilities, I am suited to defense, while you are suited to expansion. Right now, the County Chief has just taken office, and it’s the time when we need someone to charge into battle, whereas I lack the ability to lead such a charge!"
"I wholeheartedly support the County Chief’s decision from the bottom of my heart! I am willing to be your assistant, Director Cheng, so please don’t refuse!"
Xue Yang also stood up to persuade: "A Yuan, with Director Liu being so sincere and the County Chief having such high hopes for you, don’t let down the trust that the County Chief and Director Liu have in you!"
Cheng Yuan smiled bitterly and waved his hand; he wanted to be Shen Manwen’s man, not her secretary!
"Director Liu, Brother Yang, please don’t persuade me anymore."
"Choosing a secretary of the opposite sex is a big taboo in official circles."
"The secretary would often enter and leave the boss’s residence, which can easily lead to rumors. I don’t mind this, but it could have a big impact on the County Chief!"
"Besides, even if I don’t become the County Chief’s secretary, I can still charge into battle for the County Chief!"
Cheng Yuan’s words were logical and convincing, and Shen Manwen nodded in agreement.
"Alright then! Let Liu Xi be the Director of the County Government Office!"
Liu Xi looked at Cheng Yuan with a grateful gaze, then stood up and bowed deeply to Shen Manwen.
"County Chief! Although I can’t charge into battle like Director Cheng, I assure you, as long as I am here, the County Government will be as solid as iron!"
Shen Manwen gave a slight nod to Liu Xi, acknowledging his competence.
If she were in a defensive position right now, she would definitely choose Liu Xi, but unfortunately, she had just become the County Chief, which was a time for expansion.
Shen Manwen turned her head to look at Cheng Yuan, asking with a smile, "Cheng Yuan, what are your career plans?"
Cheng Yuan didn’t hold back, speaking solemnly, "County Chief, you’ve just taken office and are not yet in a position to contend with Secretary Liu! What you need to do now is to focus on the government work! Try your best to avoid confrontations with Secretary Liu! And the top priority of government work is to focus on the economy. So, I want to go to the Investment Promotion Bureau to lead the charge for you."
The Investment Promotion Bureau?
Shen Manwen frowned slightly. The Director of the Investment Promotion Bureau, Liang Zhong, had reported to her several times and clearly aligned himself with her.
If she unseated Liang Zhong without good reason, those who had aligned with her would surely feel disheartened.
However, Cheng Yuan was now eligible for a division-level position, and not giving him a substantive division-level post would not be a proper reward for his accomplishments.
What to do?
Liu Xi, who had just received a great favor from Cheng Yuan, decisively stepped forward.
"County Chief, there’s no need for you to struggle with this issue, no need to disturb Director Liang. You can establish a Development Zone Investment Promotion Office, designated explicitly as a division-level unit, working alongside the Investment Promotion Bureau to carry out the investment promotion work for the development zone."
A light shone in Shen Manwen’s eyes; Liu Xi’s mind was truly sharp!
Indeed, this was a good plan!
It wouldn’t chill the hearts of those officials who had come over to her side, and it would also solve Cheng Yuan’s division-level status.
"Agreed! However, this office needs to be clearly designated as a division-level unit, so I’ll have to personally take charge as the team leader, and Cheng Yuan can serve as the Executive Deputy Team Leader!"
"Thank you, County Chief, for the cultivation!"
Shen Manwen looked steadily at Cheng Yuan.
"Cheng Yuan, while this action solves your division-level status, it will also bring you a strong competitor!"
"If your performance is not as good as the Investment Promotion Bureau’s, or if they leave you far behind, there’s a high chance that the office will be impeached and possibly even disbanded."
"So, whether or not this office can be maintained depends on your performance!"
Cheng Yuan spoke gravely, "County Chief, rest assured, I will not let you down! I will definitely not lose to the Investment Promotion Bureau!"
Shen Manwen watched Cheng Yuan with a smile.
"Don’t put too much pressure on yourself; the position of Deputy Director of the County Government Office is still reserved for you."
"If this office doesn’t work out, we can transfer you elsewhere, perhaps to serve as a Town Party Committee Secretary or Town Chief."
"Of course, your current focus is still the Weidong River project. After the Weidong River project is completed, I will establish the Investment Promotion Office." 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Cheng Yuan quickly expressed his thanks: "Thank you, County Chief."
Xue Yang and Liu Xi exchanged glances once again.
Isn’t the County Chief treating Director Cheng (A Yuan) too well?
It’s practically on a nanny level of care!
With the rewarding being concluded, it was time to leave.
"County Chief, my mother has come to see me, may I leave first?"
"Auntie is here? Then you should hurry!"
No sooner had Liu Xi left than Xue Yang pretended to receive a phone call and then looked at Shen Manwen with a wry smile.
"County Chief, there’s an urgent task at the station, and I must go right away."
Shen Manwen didn’t think much of it and nodded, "Go ahead."
After speaking, Shen Manwen suddenly realized something was amiss!
Something isn’t right!
Now it was just her and Cheng Yuan left!
Cheng Yuan, this beast, had been drinking too.
Could he possibly lose control?
