Before noon.
Small kitchen.
After closing the door, Dong Xuebing and Xie Jing chatted while washing the vegetables.
"Actually, I don't know much about it." Xie Jing sighed. "I only heard my parents talking about it occasionally."
Dong Xuebing started to cut the vegetables. "Tell me."
Xie Jing replied. "I heard that our grandfather and Fang Shuiling's grandfather used to be leaders of the same level, but Fang Shuiling's grandfather was younger by nine years. Youth is capital, and he was the most important candidate for the top leadership positions. You know what happened after that. Our grandfather became the General Secretary, but due to some conflicts, our grandfather suppressed Fang Shuiling's grandfather for eight to nine years. Until our grandfather retired, Fang Shuiling's grandfather did not get promoted. In the past, Fang Shuiling's grandfather was slightly younger, and he was able to make a comeback. In the past, the Fang Family might still have some concerns, but as time passed, it gradually developed into a battle between the Fang and the Xie Families. The hatred between the two families is endless, and the Fang Family is also our family's biggest political enemy and obstacle. Let me give you an example. When my father was promoted to a deputy department head, the Fang Family tried to make a move on him. My father was almost unable to get promoted, and it almost delayed my father's promotion for four years. In the end, our family was saved from danger, but my father did not get the position he wanted. He could only settle for the next best thing, and there are many similar incidents. Of course, our family is also a hindrance to the Fang Family, and we fought fiercely. Everyone in the Central Government knows that the Xie Family and the Fang Family are mortal enemies, and they have been fighting since my grandfather's generation for more than twenty years."
Dong Xuebing nodded and understood. "No wonder you treat Xiao Ling like this. I didn't know about this."
Xie Jing replied. "I am not a petty person, and I know the grudges between the elders have nothing to do with the younger generation. I will also not blame Fang Shuiling for this. But my brother is the leader of our family's third generation and will represent the Xie family. Fang Shuiling is the Fang family's youngest granddaughter and is not someone from the sidelines. Our families have been at odds for so many years, and my brother can marry anyone but her!"
Dong Xuebing is an open-minded person. "You can't say that."
Xie Jing disagreed. "Do you think our grandfather will agree with his temper? Of course not. Do you think my parents will agree? Fine. Even if our family agrees with my brother's freedom to love, what about the Fang family? What can Fang Shuiling's grandfather and relatives do? Can they let their favorite granddaughter marry our family? I don't even need to think to know this is impossible! "
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Aren't you the same as Sun Kai?"
Xie Jing retorted. "That's different. Sun Kai does not have any feud with our family, and I am not a man. I will not affect our family's politics in the future, and I can marry whoever I want. Anyway, we don't need a woman to support our family. But my brother is different."
Dong Xuebing shook his finger. "What's wrong with being a woman? What era is this? Why are you still thinking about gender equality? Isn't your sister also a woman?"
Xie Jing replied helplessly. "How can I be compared to my sister? She is a special case, and she is more capable than most men. She can take on the family's responsibilities, but I am just a nobody. That's why my family did not object to me marrying Sun Kai. My brother …"
Dong Xuebing scolded. "You are using double standards."
Xie Jing looks at her brother-in-law. "The more capable you are, the more responsibilities you have."
"Not only are you using double standards, but you are also trying to shirk your responsibilities." Dong Xuebing scolded. "I am not the one criticizing you. You …"
Xie Jing waved her hand and interrupted Dong Xuebing. "Alright … stop criticizing me. It's all my fault, alright? Furthermore, I did not say anything. If my brother wants to date Fang Shuiling, then let him. I also did not care about him and did not give Fang Shuiling any face. I just don't want to say anything, alright? I just don't like her, alright? Oh, you still want me to be intimate with her? She even forced me to fawn over her? "
Dong Xuebing laughed and points at Xie Jing. "Look at you. You are getting impatient."
"I am not impatient!" Xie Jing lowered her head and started washing the vegetables.
"Alright. That's enough." Dong Xuebing doesn't know if he should laugh or cry. Xiao Jing is not in a good mood today, and he should stop scolding her.
To be honest, this marriage is not easy.
Two feuding families getting married? Dong Xuebing felt it is not feasible!
Xie Jing is right. Both families will not agree to this marriage!
But this is not something Dong Xuebing can interfere with, and he does not want to interfere. Xie Ran had brought his girlfriend over, and Dong Xuebing had given her 1 million RMB as a gift. This is enough, and Dong Xuebing does not want to interfere.
When Dong Xuebing was about to cook, someone knocked on the kitchen door.
Then, a delicate figure slowly walked in — it was Fang Shuiling.
"Brother Dong, Xiao Jing, let me help you." Fang Shuiling said and snatched the vegetables from Xie Jing's hands. She started to wash the dishes.
Xie Jing replied. "No need."
"Let me do it." Fang Shuiling refused to listen.
Dong Xuebing is afraid Xie Jing will be rude and said. "Xiao Jing, go out and have some tea. Xiao Ling will help me."
Xie Jing nodded and walked away.
Only Dong Xuebing and Fang Shuiling are left in the kitchen.
Fang Shuiling is very experienced and quickly finished washing the vegetables. She even helped Dong Xuebing cut the vegetables, and no one can tell she is the spoiled granddaughter of the Fang Family. Dong Xuebing looked at her and had a good impression of her. She is from a respectable family and has a good personality.
When Dong Xuebing is looking at Fang Shuiling, Fang Shuiling is also looking at Dong Xuebing secretly.
Fang Shuiling is very curious about Xie Ran's Eldest Brother-in-law. She had met Xie Huilan since young. Although they had only met a few times due to family conflicts, Fang Shuiling knows Xie Huilan is several times prettier than her, and she is more capable than most of the young men from the influential families. Xie Huilan had always been the center of attention in the circle, and Fang Shuiling knows many young men from influential families had proposed marriage to the Xie Family. Xie Huilan is much more outstanding than Fang Shuiling.
She is beautiful.
She is calm and elegant.
She had become the City's Party Secretary at a young age.
Even those men with strong backing cannot compare to Xie Huilan, let alone a woman. Some of them can't even achieve half of Xie Huilan's achievements.
Xie Huilan is such a perfect woman!
Fang Shuiling doesn't even dare to be jealous of Xie Huilan!
But in the end, Xie Huilan married this ordinary-looking young man who is about the same age as her!
Fang Shuiling was shocked when she first met Dong Xuebing. She had many images of Xie Huilan's husband in her mind, but Dong Xuebing had changed her mind. He does not fit the image she had in her mind at all. Fang Shuiling can't believe why this perfect woman would marry such a man.
Fang Shuiling is not looking down on Dong Xuebing. She is the same as everyone else. She doesn't understand what is going on in this world!
Splash.
Crackle.
Oil splashed everywhere.
Dong Xuebing, who was cooking, suddenly turns to look at Fang Shuiling and saw her looking at him curiously. Dong Xuebing smiled. "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me? "
Fang Shuiling blushed. "Curious."
"What's there to be curious about?" Dong Xuebing touched his face and laughed. "Am I not as handsome as you think?"
Fang Shuiling quickly replied. "No."
Dong Xuebing sighed. "I can't help it. I am born handsome, and I am not as good looking as your Xie Ran. I am always jealous of that kid's looks."
Fang Shuiling immediately replied. "Brother Ran is not as handsome as you. I know what you are capable of."
Dong Xuebing blinked. You know me? Oh, when did I become so famous?
Others might not have heard of Dong Xuebing because their status is not high enough to know about him. But Fang Shuiling is the youngest granddaughter of the Fang Family and knows Xie Huilan's husband. Although she doesn't know much about Dong Xuebing, she has heard of him. She knows Dong Xuebing had vented his anger on Senior Xie to marry Xie Huilan. He had even gotten drunk once and called Senior Xie his brother. She also knows Dong Xuebing risked his life to defuse the bomb on Xie Huilan and that he is very capable. She does not know much about Dong Xuebing, and she believes others are the same. Most of them are more concerned about Xie Ran and Xie Hao. After all, Dong Xuebing is the Xie Family's son-in-law and not their son. Fang Shuiling got to know Dong Xuebing from Xie Ran.
He looks ordinary.
His net worth is a few hundred million.
He has a bad temper.
He is always scolding and swearing.
His mouth was full of curses and vulgarities.
This person is only in his mid-twenties and is a leader of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection!
How can someone like him marry a perfect woman like Sister Huilan?!
Fang Shuiling's brain is not working. She had seen, heard, and heard about Dong Xuebing, but she does not know what kind of person Dong Xuebing is.
But Dong Xuebing is a legend!
