Chapter 1629

Downstairs.

A scream echoed.

Everyone was stunned by the kick from Director Dong. Watching Yang Zhen's body flying in mid-air, many felt like they were about to spit out blood. The scene of someone being kicked several meters away was something they had only seen in TV dramas and movies, never in real life.

Such strength!

That kick was too ruthless!

Everyone watched in horror as Yang Zhen flew and landed on his own Audi A4L, five meters away, with a loud crash.

"Ah!"

Yang Zhen grimaced in pain, clutching his stomach.

"Director Yang!"

"Oh dear, Director Yang!"

"Assault! Assault!"

"Why do you have the right to hit someone?"

The people from the General office burst out in protests. Some shouted at Director Dong, while others rushed to help Yang Zhen, asking if he was okay.

Director Dong calmly stated, "He laid hands on me first. Everyone saw it. What's the deal? He can hit me, but I can't kick him?"

Why should he hit someone?Cheêck out latest novels at novelhall.com

There was no reason for him to be hit!

Even if it were Chen Zhen instead of Yang Zhen, it wouldn't matter!

If anyone dared to touch him, they'd get the same treatment!

Director Dong casually took a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a few puffs, maintaining a calm expression. He didn't show any remorse for causing such a disturbance. Seeing this, the people around couldn't help but gasp. Director Dong had held back. They were all colleagues, and there was no deep-seated animosity between them. So Director Dong had controlled the force of his kick. While it looked intimidating and like Yang Zhen had been sent flying, he had just kicked him in the stomach. Since it was all soft tissue, it wouldn't cause any fractures or serious injuries. Director Dong had shown some mercy. This kick served as a lesson for Yang Zhen, preventing him from disregarding them in the future.

The situation was chaotic.

Onlookers were in an uproar.

Especially the clerks from the inspection offices downstairs. Some were so shocked they almost fell out of the windows. Luckily, they managed to hold on.

"He hit someone!"

Han Fei shouted, "Clearly, Deputy Director Yang, laid hands on our Director Dong first. Everyone here saw it, yet you're unwilling to let it go."

The people from the General office retorted, "Deputy Director Yang didn't hit anyone. It was just pushing and shoving. It was Director Dong who kicked someone first!"

The two departments started arguing again.

By this time, Yang Zhen had recovered a bit. He was helped down from the car, clutching his stomach. He was furious, pointing at Director Dong, "You, Dong Xuebing, dare to hit someone? Do you think you can act recklessly in the Commission for Discipline Inspection compound?"

Director Dong looked at him coldly, "You hit me first, so it's only fair for me to hit back. You've had your say and occupied the moral high ground."

Yang Zhen was truly enraged. Being publicly assaulted like this, how could he maintain his dignity? Fuming with anger, he rushed towards Director Dong again. The people from the General office also followed their leader, joining in the confrontation, equally incensed.

Dong Xuebing chuckled, "What's the matter? Have you learned your lesson yet? Do you want to fight with me? Come on, let's see what you've got!"

Han Fei and He Zhou approached, standing by Director Dong's side.

Both sides were boiling with anger, creating a tense atmosphere of confrontation.

Several veteran inspectors were startled, fearing another conflict might erupt. They quickly came forward to mediate.

"Stop it!"

"Calm down, calm down."

"No more fighting, what's the point of this?"

"Look at yourselves, is this how leaders behave?"

"Director Dong, take your people back. Deputy Director Yang, you too. Let's all calm down. Let the leaders handle this matter."

"Yeah, let's not act rashly."

"Xiao Yang, Xiao Dong, show some respect for this old man."

With the intervention of many peacekeepers, the conflict was diffused.

However, Director Dong and the people from the Second Office didn't care much. They had already vented their anger by hitting the car and the person. Yang Zhen and the people from the General office were still simmering with anger, feeling frustrated. They had never been bullied like this, especially by the old rivals from the Second Office.

The situation was temporarily suppressed.

Director Dong looked around and said indignantly, "Fine, I'll give you some face and won't pursue this further." He then turned to Han Fei and the others, "Let's go. It's time to get back to work."

Yang Zhen was seething with rage.

Pursue us? Do you have the nerve to pursue us?
