In the entire conference room, if there is anyone who has the most tense relationship with Qiu Tu, then it must be Yan Ai.

After all, Qiu Tu was a middle-level official promoted by Yan Ai.

Moreover, Yan Ai was obviously very optimistic about Qiu Tu, and truly cultivated him as a confidant, paving a grand road for him.

As a result, under such circumstances, Qiu Tu still betrayed Yan Ai and fell into the arms of Tang Feifei.

Everyone knows Yan Ai, and with Yan Ai's vengeful character, it is 100% impossible to let Qiu Tu go! Let alone help Qiu Tu get promoted! Therefore, Tang Feifei's proposal will definitely hit the iron plate.

Sure enough, when Tang Feifei opened her mouth, Yan Ai, who had been silent since the beginning of the meeting, also spoke.

He raised his drooped eyelids and slowly looked at Tang Feifei with a pair of old, cloudy eyes.

When Tang Feifei saw this, she also looked at him tit for tat.

The two looked at each other like this for two seconds, and then Yan Ai slowly said with a gloomy look, "Qiu Tu is not suitable. Let's decide on the three candidates mentioned just now."

"Report them to the city committee and decide whichever one the committee likes."

Hearing Yan Ai's words, the senior executives in the conference room were stunned for a moment, and then looked at each other.

The choice of the director of the Political Department is too important. When everyone can't decide, it is normal to report it to the shelter and let the shelter make the selection.

But, for a deputy minister, it is completely possible to discuss it internally and then go through the process in the municipal committee, but now it is left to the municipal committee to choose?

Isn’t this a transfer of power?

At this time, Yan Ai didn't care what everyone thought. After saying this, he snorted coldly, stood up, and walked away.

Seeing his attitude, the senior executives who were a little confused just now suddenly had a look of realization on their faces, and they "guessed" what Yan Ai was thinking: Yan Ai probably felt sick when he heard Qiu Tu's name, and was too lazy to continue the meeting, and didn't want to talk to him.

Tang Feifei continued to push, so she directly exercised the director's decision-making power and finalized the matter.

Thinking like this, they couldn't help but glance at Tang Feifei.

At this time, Tang Feifei's brows were frowning and her face was as cold as ice.

Upon seeing this, the senior executives looked at each other, stood up with a smile, and left the conference room.

Although they didn't get the results they wanted, at least there was hope. But Tang Feifei had no hope at all.

Humans are such strange creatures. It doesn't matter how bad their life is. If they see others living a worse life than themselves, they will always be much happier.

Soon, the aftermath of this meeting began to spread rapidly in the Exploration Agency.

Therefore, it didn't take long for the agents, section chiefs, and division chiefs of various departments to take advantage of this meeting.

"Hey, have you heard? Deputy Director Tang and the Supervisory Committee proposed that Director Qiu be promoted to deputy minister, but the director vetoed it with one vote."

"I heard it, I heard it. I also heard that Deputy Director Tang looked ugly at that time."

"But don't talk about it. Although Director Qiu is junior and has just been promoted, he was promoted a bit too quickly. But after being nominated by the Supervisory Committee, he has the qualifications to be promoted to deputy minister. If there is no objection from the director, his advantage

On the contrary, it is the biggest.”

"Yes, but who made him offend the director? The director vetoed it, leaving him with no hope. And now that the list has been reported to the municipal committee, there is no way to change it."

"What a fate, hey."

"Isn't that just saying."

And at this time.

Office of the Sheriff.

Because he was concerned about his bet with Qiu Tu, Zheng Tao came to his boss Guan Weihua to inquire about the news almost as soon as the meeting ended.

As an official of the same power, Guan Weihua certainly did not hide it from Zheng Tao.

Therefore, Zheng Tao soon received two pieces of news.

The first news is: Qiu Tu has indeed been nominated. And he was jointly nominated by Deputy Director Tang and the Supervisory Committee. The competitiveness is amazing.

The second news: Director Yan was extremely dissatisfied with Qiu Tu and rejected the nomination with one vote. He also submitted all three candidates except Qiu Tu and waited for the municipal committee to finalize it.

The first news made Zheng Tao so scared that his back was sweating, but the second news made Zheng Tao almost laugh out loud!

At this time, he didn't know about Qiu Tu's "conspiracy":

Qiu Tu obviously knew that he would be jointly recommended by the Supervisory Committee and Tang Feifei, and believed that he had a high probability of being elected, so he made himself a bet!

I want to win my wife and driver!

Fortunately, Director Yan used his veto power at this time, otherwise he might have succeeded!

Thinking of this, Zheng Tao breathed a sigh of relief and also felt a little gloating.

He felt that Qiu Tu calculated over and over again, but in the end he missed the calculation.

It seems that the ultimate winner of this bet is myself!

Thinking of this, Zheng Tao was suddenly stunned: Wait a minute, in this bet between himself and Qiu Tu, how come he was the only one who made the bet, while Qiu Tu didn't make any bets?

'No, no! We have to have a good discussion with him about this!'

With this in mind, Zheng Tao and Guan Weihua said goodbye and walked towards the 9th floor.

At the same time, Qiu Tu was also on the phone with Tang Feifei.

At this time, although Tang Feifei's face was not as cold as when the meeting ended, she was not much better.

She frowned and said in a cold tone, "Qiu Tu. Haven't you dealt with Yan Ai?"

"I nominated you today according to our plan. But you were rejected by him with one vote."

"In this case, how can you get promoted?"

Speaking of this, she said with a bit of hatred, "This is a very rare opportunity."

"Now that the New Territories City has just been built, there may still be some vacancies for the section chief of the Investigation Department, but the director is really a carrot and a pit."

"The position of deputy director of the Public Security Department was previously vacant, which is already very rare."

"But it's a pity that Yan Ai has been given to others."

"Now we finally have a vacant position as deputy director of the Political Department. If someone takes over again, your position will be completely blocked!"

Upon hearing Tang Feifei's concerned words, Qiu Tu comforted her, "Feifei, don't get excited."

"The results haven't come out yet, so don't open champagne to the enemy at halftime."

"You have to believe me."

After hearing Qiu Tu's words, Tang Feifei took a deep breath, as if suppressing the anger in her heart: Obviously, Tang Feifei was very unhappy with today's failure at the high-level meeting.

After two seconds like this, she suddenly commanded in a cold voice, "Come to my house for supper tonight."

Qiu Tu:???

These are totally two different things!

And eating late night snacks?

Did his nickname become a midnight snack?

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu, who had just worked hard the day before yesterday, quickly shook his head and rejected her, "No time. I have important tasks in the past two days."

Hearing Qiu Tu's rejection, Tang Feifei snorted coldly and was about to start arguing with Qiu Tu again, telling her how embarrassing she was today.

As a result, before she could speak, Qiu Tu said directly, "I have someone here, let's talk when we have time."

After saying that, he hung up the phone directly.

Listening to the "beep" sound coming from the receiver, Tang Feifei squeezed the communicator so angrily that it made a "rattling" sound and almost broke it!

However, after being angry, Tang Feifei still suppressed the anger in her heart, then threw the communicator aside, guessing how Qiu Tu was going to make a comeback.

After thinking about it quietly for half an hour, Tang Feifei still felt that her hope was a little slim.

The list has been sent to the Municipal Committee, can Qiu Tu still ask the Municipal Committee to call back?

But even if the fight comes back, as long as Yan Ai blocks him, he still won't be able to become the deputy minister.

Even if Qiu Tu finally convinced Yan Ai during this period, Yan Ai couldn't just withdraw his veto inexplicably, right? Wouldn't that be too much of a slap in the face?

Tang Feifei felt that there must be something she didn't know about.

At the same time, Qiu Tu, who had hung up the phone, was also confronting Zheng Tao, who had found him.

Compared with the irritation in the morning, Zheng Tao is obviously more relaxed and comfortable now.

He looked at Qiu Tu and asked, "Director Qiu, do you know why I came to you?"

Hearing this, Qiu Tu hesitated for a moment, and then asked tentatively, "You think you are going to lose, so you are going to go back on your bet?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zheng Tao had a question mark on his head and almost laughed out of anger.

"Director Qiu, are you kidding me?"

"Which one of us is about to lose?"

He said, "I just got the news that your nomination was rejected by the director. You are not among the three candidates reported to the municipal committee."

"So, you are the one who is about to lose this bet."
