Chen Chuan could hear the sincerity in Counselor Pei's voice. Although he had his own thoughts, he was still grateful for the other man's goodwill. If Counselor Pei didn't truly think highly of him, there would have been no need to say any of this.
He said, "Thank you, Counselor Pei. I'll remember this."
Counselor Pei smiled. "I really didn't expect Mr. Xue to step in and protect you. This is a good thing for you personally. The City Council shouldn't be bothering you for a while.
By the way, the higher-ups are adjusting your position. The appointment process is already underway, and your three-month vacation has been approved. What are you planning to do during this time, Captain Chen?"
Chen Chuan said, "I haven't decided yet, but before anything else, I might get a teacher's certificate from Wuyi Academy."
