In the suite.
The atmosphere is tense.
Father Hou continued criticizing his wife, "With that bad temper of yours, you deserve it. I could tell from the way you spoke that you looked down on Little Wen's classmate. Look at your tone and look at your expression. I wish I could slap you. In the system, you can't judge a book by its cover. How many times have I told you that? Ah? Count the number of times I have told you! You don't listen to me every time! Are you satisfied now? Have you learned your lesson? Do you think I don't have enough problems? It's fine if I offend my colleagues! It's fine if I offend the leaders! But can I afford to offend the leaders of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection? If they want to touch you, you don't even need to say anything! Just a document will do! "
Mrs. Hou does not dare to be angry with her husband. She finally knows why her husband scolded her in front of so many people. She is feeling guilty. "Old Hou, I really don't know."
Mr. Hou points at her. "Ignorant!"
Mrs. Hou asked softly. "What should we do now?"
Hou Fu saw the regretful look on his wife's face, and his heart softened. He sighed. "Alright. This is not your fault. You had never heard of him and don't know him. Luckily, Xiao Wen and Xuebing are classmates and are staying in the same hostel. They should be fine."
Mrs. Hou looks at her son. "Xiao Wen, are you close with your classmate?"
Hou Wen had not digested this news and replied. "Of course. Don't worry. Xuebing is not that kind of person."
Hou Fu acknowledged and said to his wife, "Just now, he kept saying that he would help you carry your bag up. It's not that he's being polite. He's magnanimous and gives Little Wen a lot of face. Yes, it's because of Little Wen's relationship. Otherwise, you would have really caused trouble for me."
Mrs. Hou was relieved. "That's good. I … sigh … I'm sorry, Old Hou."
Mr. Hou looked at his wife. "It's all in the past. Be more careful next time."
Mrs. Hou felt guilty and poured a cup of tea for her husband. "Drink some water."
Gulp … Mr. Hou took a few sips and looked at his son. "Look at your classmate. He is the same age as you, but now? You should learn more from him. "
Hou Wen smiled bitterly. "But Xuebing does not have any background. I am happy for him, but I am also puzzled. We had been in university for so many years, and I had visited his house more than once. I know about Xuebing's family background. How did he become a Divisional Chief within three years? This was too fast! It's like riding a rocket! "
Hou Fu said, "Heroes don't come from where they come from. Who told you that you have to have a background to survive in the system? He must have some ability that you don't know about. "
Hou Wen laughed. "I don't know. When I was in university, everyone in the dormitory … no, everyone in the Computer Science faculty is Xuebing, and he is the one who keeps a low profile. He doesn't like to talk, and his results are average. Damn! But now, he has married such a beautiful wife, and he is a Divisional Chief! He's even in a powerful department like the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. I, I don't know what to say now! "
Mama Hou was also doubtful. "Old Hou, is he really a Division Chief? Was it the treatment of a division chief? Or is he a Section Chief? "
Hou Fu replied confidently. "He is a Divisional Chief. I heard he had shown his work pass when he was in Xiaxing City. If not, why do you think Deputy Governor Jia did not come to the Provincial Government? Why do you think the Provincial Government is so tense recently? "
There was a pause.
Hou Wen banged the table. "Damn! He didn't even tell me that he had been promoted! He didn't even inform me that he had married such a beautiful wife! This is too much! No … I must ask him in the afternoon. Ah … I have too many questions, and it's hard to hold it in. This Xuebing is too shameless! "
Hou Wen's father frowned. "Don't say such things."
Hou Wen's mother quickly added. "He is now a leader, and he can even control your father. Watch your tone when you speak to your classmates in the future."
Hou Wen laughed. "It's fine. I have been brothers with Xuebing for many years, and there are no taboos between us."
Hou Wen's mother replied. "You still have to be careful."
Hou Wen's father thought for a while. "Xiao Wen knows what he is doing. Let him handle it himself."
"There's no need for that." Hou Wen replied. "What's there to worry about between friends? Don't worry. I know Xuebing's character, and he is not the type to be arrogant after becoming a government official. If not, we would not have chatted so well at the airport. He had not mentioned his rank and position, and he is not trying to show off. Don't use your standards to judge us. Rank is rank, and we are brothers. If you don't overthink things, there will be no conflict between us. "
Hou Wen's mother looked at her son. "Help me explain this to you all during dinner."
Hou Wen's father waved his hand. "Since they did not care about this matter, this is the end of it. Don't keep bringing it up."
Hou Wen's mother paused for a while. "But I still need to put in a good word for you. I heard Xie Huilan has a strong background, and you can use Xiao Wen to get closer to her. Also, Xiao Wen has a lot of authority in the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, and he can help you. Even if the Commission for Discipline Inspection wants to investigate you, Xiao Wen can still inform us, right?"
Hou Wen's father waved his hand. "Forget it. Let nature take its course."
Hou Wen was speechless. "You all have too many ideas. But I will not interfere. Alright … I should go and play with Xuebing now."
"Hurry up and go. Don't let them wait for too long." This is the first time Hou Wen's mother is so supportive of her son going out to play. After knowing Xuebing's identity, her attitude changed. "Xiao Wen, bring more money with you. If not, I will give you my bank card first. You can settle the bill during dinner. Don't let them spend their money. Also … Sigh … How can this kid leave so suddenly?!"
Hou Wen had already left the room speechlessly.
In the corridor, Hou Wen took out his phone and called Dong Xuebing.
"Hello, Hou Wen." Dong Xuebing answered.
Hou Wen shouted angrily. "Hurry up and come out! See you downstairs! "
Dong Xuebing laughed. "What's wrong? Are you going to eat me up? "
Hou Wen replied angrily. "Eat you up?! I can't wait to fry you! You are too good at hiding your identity! How old are you, and you are already a virgin?! "
"Haha … did you hear about it from Uncle Hou?"
"How can I not hear about it?! Also, I heard about your pretty wife! Come out now! Come out now! You must give me an explanation today! Damn it! "
"Hahaha … You are jealous!"
"Go ahead and show off! I'll get you drunk tonight! "
"Then you will not stand a chance. Even ten of you can't beat me. Haha …"
