Chapter 1675

Afternoon.

On the other side.

While Dong Xuebing was still immersed in the joy of his upcoming promotion, Xie Ran drove alone out of the alleys of Houhai. Instead of following his mother and aunt, he went west by himself. After making a phone call, he stopped the car at an intersection. Shortly after, a delicate figure slowly approached—it was Fang Shuiling, the granddaughter of the Fang family. It was evident that the two had arranged to meet.

"Ran ge."

"Xiao Ling."

"Your mother and them..."

"They've all left, gone home."

"Oh, where are we going?"

"Let's get in the car first. We'll talk in the car."

Fang Shuiling got into the passenger seat, and the car started.

Xie Ran said, "The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection is going to reform this time, and my brother-in-law might have to move to a new department."

"I know about the reform." Fang Shuiling held Xie Ran's hand, "My aunt told me this morning."

Hearing this, Xie Ran sighed, "How's your aunt? Is she still staying at home? Hasn't she gone to work yet?"

"Same as Brother Dong, ordered by the unit to reflect at home." Fang Shuiling's mood was not very good, "I don't know how they got into this mess."

Xie Ran said, "It's my fault. I shouldn't have taken you over there."

"It's my choice to follow, not your fault."

"Now it's hard to handle. If your aunt and my brother-in-law get into this mess, it will affect the family. If my older sister finds out, she won't agree. Our two families already have historical conflicts. My mother even suspected I was dating today and asked me, but I didn't dare say anything. I have no idea how to bring it up. With my brother-in-law and your aunt's situation, it's unlikely that the family will agree."

Fang Shuiling felt depressed, "What should we do then?"

"Does your family know?" Xie Ran asked.

"No." Fang Shuiling said, "My aunt hasn't told the family yet."

"Then it's better not to tell them now. Hmm, what do you think about this? Let's persuade my brother-in-law and your aunt to communicate with each other first and let them resolve their conflicts first?"

"Can that work?" Fang Shuiling wasn't sure.

Xie Ran shook his head. "We can only take it step by step. Actually, the conflicts between our two families are mostly from the older generation. In recent years, our two families have been relatively peaceful, with no major conflicts except for your aunt and my brother-in-law. If they can reconcile, the resistance will be reduced slightly. The family might agree to our matter due to political factors."

Fang Shuiling pondered momentarily, "I don't know, I'll listen to you."

Xie Ran decided, "Okay, let's do that, let's..."

...

A waitress greeted them, "Hello, sir, how many people?"

Xie Ran said, "The private room is booked at 6106."

The waitress checked, "Are you Mr. Xie?"

"Yes." Xie Ran asked, "Have the people arrived?"

The waitress said, "Two ladies have already arrived. Please follow me."

Dong Xuebing and Xie Ran followed the waitress upstairs. Dong Xuebing asked Xie Ran in the elevator, "Why didn't you book a better place?"

Although the KTV was of good quality, it wasn't very famous.

Xie Ran smiled, "I'm afraid of running into acquaintances. Xiao Ling wants it to be quieter, and our affair is also confidential, so..."

Dong Xuebing nodded.

...

They arrived at the private room.

"This way. I shall not disturb you all." After the waitress led them there, she turned and left.

Xie Ran pushed the door open and entered the room. Dong Xuebing followed without much enthusiasm.

Fang Shuiling was already there, sitting and eating. But when Dong Xuebing saw the person next to Fang Shuiling, his face changed slightly!

That person's face also darkened when they saw Dong Xuebing!

"Fang Wenping?"

"Dong Xuebing?"

Dong Xuebing didn't expect Fang Wenping to be here!

Fang Wenping didn't expect Dong Xuebing to come either!

Enemies met, and both of them immediately turned cold!

Seeing the expressions of Xie Ran and Fang Shuiling, Dong Xuebing and Fang Wenping suddenly understood what these two were up to. Dong Xuebing turned and left without saying a word, and Fang Wenping stood up as if to leave!

Fang Shuiling hurriedly hugged her aunt, "Auntie! What are you doing? Today is my birthday!"

"What birthday? It's not even here yet!" Fang Wenping was a little angry.

Fang Shuiling said, "It's my lunar birthday today. Don't you remember this?"

Xie Ran also hurriedly grabbed Dong Xuebing, "Brother-in-law! Give some face! Give some face! Xiao Ling only has one birthday a year! Don't leave, please!"
