Chapter 317 Visiting Secretary Dong’s House Again
He understood that Wang Jianguo's concerns were justified. They could not just focus on the current success and ignore the possible risks in the future.
So he nodded slightly and said:
"Jianguo, you're right. We really should think things through more carefully."
"Then you go to Secretary Dong's house tomorrow and make sure to explain the situation to him."
Wang Jianguo nodded heavily, his eyes full of firmness and determination.
After Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo had an in-depth discussion, the clock had quietly pointed to late night.
The two of them lay down and prepared to fall asleep so as to recharge their energy for the challenges of the new day.
The next morning, just as the eastern sky was beginning to turn pale, Wang Jianguo opened his eyes early.
He stood up quietly, trying to make every movement as light as possible, as if he didn't want to disturb the tranquility of the early morning.
However, although he was careful enough, the slight noise still woke up Zhao Shuzhuo in the next room.
Zhao Shuzhuo was still immersed in a dream. After being awakened by the slight noise, he rubbed his sleepy eyes and slowly sat up.
Seeing that Wang Jianguo had stood up, Zhao Shuzhuo hurriedly stood up as well, his movements revealing a sense of urgency.
Seeing this, Wang Jianguo quickly said to him:
"Brother Zhao, you don't have to get up so early. Just continue to rest. When I come back from Secretary Dong's house, we'll go to the glass factory together."
Wang Jianguo's words were full of concern. He knew that Zhao Shuzhuo had been very tired these days and hoped that he could rest for a while.
Zhao Shuzhuo waved his hands repeatedly and said to Wang Jianguo with a firm look:
"Jianguo, I've thought about it and I want to go to Secretary Dong's house with you. You've only been in Jianye Village for a few days and you don't know much about Zhao Xiande's affairs."
"Zhao Xiande has done many immoral things over the years. I'm afraid that if you go alone, you won't be convincing and Secretary Dong won't believe you, so I have to go with you."
Zhao Shuzhuo's tone revealed the importance he attached to this matter. He knew very well that Zhao Xiande's actions had brought many adverse effects to the village, and he must let Secretary Dong know the truth of the matter.
Wang Jianguo was touched when he heard what Zhao Shuzhuo said. He understood that Zhao Shuzhuo was doing this for his own good and for the sake of the whole village. So he said:
"Okay, then hurry up and pack. I want to buy some breakfast. Let's eat while we walk."
Wang Jianguo's words were concise and clear, but full of expectations for the future. Zhao Shuzhuo nodded and immediately got up, dressed and washed.
His movements were quick and decisive, as if he was racing against time.
Wang Jianguo stood at the door of his room. After a moment's hesitation, he walked towards He Yushui's room opposite with steady steps.
He raised his hand and gently knocked on the slightly old door.
After a moment, the door slowly opened, and He Yushui's sleepy face appeared in front of him.
Her eyes were half open and half closed, and she seemed to be still immersed in deep sleep. Seeing that it was Wang Jianguo standing outside the door, He Yushui frowned slightly and asked in confusion:
"Brother Jianguo, what's the matter? I'm so sleepy. I haven't had a good sleep in these days."
Wang Jianguo looked at He Yushui's tired appearance and felt a surge of guilt in his heart.
He recalled that since he went to Jianye Village, He Yushui would get up early every morning just to make him a hot breakfast.
She worked tirelessly and silently, and indeed she had never had a good rest. So Wang Jianguo said gently:
"It's nothing, Yushui. Brother Zhao and I have to go to Secretary Dong's house later, so you don't have to go."
"Just take a good rest in the guesthouse. If someone knocks on the door, don't open it. Wait until we come back."
Wang Jianguo's words were full of care and worry. He didn't want He Yushui to continue running around with them. He just hoped that she could have a good sleep and recover her energy.
After hearing what Wang Jianguo said, He Yushui smiled warmly. She said:
"Okay, Brother Jianguo, I'm not a child anymore. I know to be careful. You guys should go and come back soon."
Her voice is clear and pleasant, like the singing of birds in the early morning, giving people a sense of security.
After saying that, He Yushui gently closed the door, leaving Wang Jianguo standing outside, his heart filled with emotion.
At the same time, Zhao Shuzhuo had also packed up. He walked out of the room and saw Wang Jianguo standing there, so he walked over quickly.
Zhao Shuzhuo had a determined look on his face. He knew that this trip to Secretary Dong's home was of great significance.
The two looked at each other, without saying much, but walked out of the guesthouse together tacitly.
In this early morning when the sun is rising, they shoulder their mission and move forward firmly towards the unknown future.
The two walked side by side on the way to the family compound where Secretary Dong lived. The morning breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness.
They bought a few steaming buns from a roadside bun stall and ate them as they walked. The fragrance of the buns filled the air, adding a touch of homeliness to the trip.
Soon, the two arrived at the gate of Secretary Dong's family compound. Wang Jianguo was about to go to the gate to register. At this time, the gatekeeper saw them and hurriedly said:
"No need to register. I remember you guys came here yesterday. You came to see Secretary Dong, right?"
Wang Jianguo smiled with surprise and said:
"Uncle, there are so many people coming and going every day, and you still remember us. Your memory is really good."
The old man put his hands behind his back and said proudly:
"Hey, my eyes are really powerful. I can remember clearly everyone who passes by me. It is no exaggeration to say that I have a photographic memory."
Wang Jianguo looked at the old man with admiration and praised him again:
"Master, your ability is really admirable. With you here, everyone feels relieved."
The old man smiled even brighter after hearing this. Wang Jianguo gave the gatekeeper a thumbs up and was full of admiration.
He and Zhao Shuzhuo smiled at each other, then walked into the family compound with firm steps.
Wang Jianguo has an excellent memory. He came here once yesterday, and today he found Secretary Dong’s house smoothly like an experienced navigator.
Standing in front of Secretary Dong's house, he and Zhao Shuzhuo looked at each other and saw nervousness and anticipation in each other's eyes.
Wang Jianguo took a deep breath, raised his hand, and knocked on the door gently. There was a heavy sound of footsteps from inside the door, and the sound seemed to carry a sense of majesty.
Wang Jianguo guessed that it should be Secretary Dong. His heart beat faster involuntarily, and he kept thinking in his mind how to explain the situation to Secretary Dong later.
