Afternoon.
Bang … bang … bang …
Someone is banging on the Courtyard House's door, and from the rhythm of the banging and the woman's tone, Dong Xuebing can tell this woman has a bad temper.
Fang Shuiling panicked. "What should we do?"
Xie Ran frowned. "Why is she here?"
"I also don't know." Fang Shuiling took a deep breath.
"Did you tell her that you are coming to Houhai?" Xie Ran asked.
"No." Fang Shuiling said, "Even if I tell my parents, I can't possibly tell my aunt. Who doesn't know her bad temper? This is not good. From her voice, she should know that we are in a relationship. But how did she know? And how did she know that I am here?"
Bang … bang … bang …
The person outside is still banging on the door.
"Xie Ran! Kid, open the door for me! "The woman's voice was very unruly," Are you rebelling? How dare you kidnap someone from my family?! "
Xie Ran smiled. Who did he kidnap?
Xie Hao stared at the woman. "How dare she call my Brother-in-law over?! What kind of person is this? He's not putting us in his eyes. Brother, don't worry about it. I'll go out! " He rolled up his sleeves and stood up aggressively, looking like he was about to make a move. "See if I can't take care of her!"
Xie Ran pulled him back. "Alright. Stop causing trouble."
Xie Hao shouted. "If I don't teach her a lesson, she will not know who we are!"
Fang Shuiling quickly stopped him. "Xiao Hao, stop fooling around."
Xie Jing asked. "Your Aunt … is Fang Wenping?"
Fang Shuiling hesitated for a while and replied softly. "… it's her."
Xie Jing slapped her forehead. "Damn! How come it's her?"
Dong Xuebing looks at them. "Xiao Ran had mentioned her before, and I thought this name sounds familiar. Fang Wenping?"
Xie Ran did not answer Dong Xuebing as the topic was diverted. But when he heard Fang Wenping's name, he sighed. "You should have heard of her. Fang Wenping is also working in the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. She is the Chief of the First Supervision Office."
Dong Xuebing was stunned. "Chief?"
"Main Hall rank, first in command." Xie Ran confirmed.
Dong Xuebing suddenly realized why this name sounded so familiar. So, they are from the same unit. The First Supervision Office … is the office building next to them. No wonder Dong Xuebing had heard her name before. Even if Dong Xuebing had not attended any meetings and had never met this woman, he should have heard of her name. This woman should be Fang Shuiling's sister-in-law and is from the Fang Family. Enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road. Hmmm … it is not exactly narrow road. The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection is a big department, and there are many factions within it.
But Dong Xuebing is puzzled by Xie Ran and Xie Jing's expressions. Fang Shuiling's expression is also weird. "Xiao Ling's Aunt … is very special?"
Xie Jing replied helplessly. "She is more than special. She is …" She looked at Fang Shuiling and kept quiet. She did not want to badmouth her aunt in front of Fang Shuiling.
Dong Xuebing wants to know more. "Tell me."
In the end, it was Xie Ran who said, "Auntie Ling, the feeling of being in the Fang Family, hmm, how do I put it, hmm, it's similar to how you feel in our house."
Dong Xuebing doesn't understand. "What do you mean?"
Fang Shuiling had gone to the door but did not open it. She wants to observe the situation.
After Fang Wenping left, Xie Jing purposely avoided Xiao Ling and told Dong Xuebing. "She is very special and has a weird personality. Three leaders from the Fang Family's faction had offended her, and she is the leader of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection at that time. Within a year, she investigated all three leaders and removed them from their posts, suspended them, and transferred them away."
Dong Xuebing blinked. "Aren't those people from her own family's faction?"
Xie Jing smiled. "That's right. That's why I said she is … that person."
"What did the Fang Family say?" Dong Xuebing is curious about this person.
Xie Ran kept looking out and added, "I don't know the specifics, but I heard that the Fang family scolded her. Although Fang Wenping isn't particularly old, she's still Xiaoling's elder. She's the second generation of the Fang family, so her status is still very high. In the end, Fang Wenping didn't listen at all. In the end, she went her own way and dismissed the third person. The Fang family didn't do anything to Fang Wenping. After all, she's a direct relative of the family. They can't just abandon her just because of a few outsiders who sided with their faction.
Dong Xuebing nodded. "That should not be a problem. She is from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and is impartial. If there are no problems with the other party, she will not be able to find anything."
Xie Ran replied. "This is a small matter and can be considered an internal conflict. Although it is hard to understand, it's not a big problem. The most important thing is …"
Dong Xuebing asked. "What happened after that?"
Dong Xuebing did not notice Xie Hao, who was shouting that he will rush out to teach Fang Wenping a lesson, had become listless. Xie Hao sat on the chair listlessly. "I had heard about it. Brother-in-law, you don't know about it? She had sent her husband to jail! "
Dong Xuebing gave him a stare. "Nonsense."
Xie Jing paused for a second. "Xiao Hao is not talking nonsense. It is true."
"Ah?" Dong Xuebing asked. "What happened?"
Xie Jing explained. "Not long after that incident, her husband cheated on his wife, and she caught him in bed. Normally, when this happens in big families, they will not show their faces and will not talk about it. They will pretend that nothing has happened, or even divorce. But … but Fang Wenping did not do that. She did something that shocked everyone in the Fang family. A few days later, she arrested her husband with evidence of his bribery. Although the Commission for Discipline Inspection has the principle of avoiding suspicion, it was Fang Wenping's wife who reported the case. She was the one who led the team to investigate the case, and her husband was sent to prison. This incident caused a huge uproar in the city, and almost everyone knew about it. The Fang family kept a low profile for a period of time, and the incident slowly passed. Fang Wenping divorced her husband, and they did not have any children. Fang Wenping became a widow and stayed in the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Through this incident, everyone knew about Fang Wenping's temper, and after that, no one dared to offend her. A person who could even arrest her own husband, what else could she not do? Fang Wenping was also labeled as a person who does not recognize her own family."
Dong Xuebing finally understood why Xie Ran said he is similar to Fang Wenping. He finally understood why Xie Hao, who was aggressive earlier, softened.
Fang Wenping?
Xiao Ling's aunt is also a troublemaker!
Fang Wenping is even more extreme than Xie Huilan. Xie Huilan's ruthlessness can only be described as her temper, but Fang Wenping is ruthless. No wonder Xie Ran and Xie Jing are having a headache. It's impossible for them to let their guard down when such a legendary woman comes knocking on their door!
Dong Xuebing is also having a headache. "But it's not a good idea to let her knock on our door."
Xie Ran also does not know how to deal with this. It's fine if it's anyone else from the Fang family, but this Fang Wenping!
She's a b * stard!
Who doesn't know this woman's temper?
Talk to her? Talk to her? Bullshit! It's impossible!
But Xie Ran had become more decisive after his training at the grassroots level. In the past, the Xie family had treated him like a treasure, and this caused him to have a weak personality. He is not as tough and cold as Xie Huilan. But after training at the grassroots level, he changed. What will come will come, and avoiding her is not the way to solve problems. So, Xie Ran gritted his teeth and shouted to Fang Shuiling, who is standing near the door. "Xiao Ling, open the door!"
Fang Shuiling hesitated. "But …"
"I will have to meet your family eventually." Xie Ran replied.
Hearing this, Fang Shuiling nodded vigorously. "Okay."
Dong Xuebing did not want to get involved, but after seeing Xiao Ran's decision, he nodded in his heart. If he wants to be successful in the government, he must be decisive. Bang!
Bang! Bang!
Someone is still knocking on the door!
"Xiao Ling! Are you not going to acknowledge me as your aunt? "Fang Wenping shouted.
Fang Shuiling pursed her lips. Click. Creak. In the end, she still opened the door. "… Auntie, I … Hey, where are you going? If you have something to say, tell me! Aunt! "
Dong Xuebing cannot see the door from the center of the courtyard as there is a screen wall separating them.
But a few seconds after the door opened, Dong Xuebing heard the sound of high heels and saw a woman walking in. Fang Shuiling was holding the woman's arm behind her.
Fang Wenping. Dong Xuebing had heard about this woman from Xie Ran and Xie Jing. But when he met her in person, he realized this woman is totally different from the impression he had in his mind. Dong Xuebing was stunned when he saw a beautiful woman in front of him. She should be in her thirties or forties. She is wearing a skirt, black high heels, and a sweater. She looks elegant and fashionable, and with her voluptuous figure, she looks like a textbook oriental beauty. What kind of person is Dong Xuebing? Dong Xuebing had never seen a beautiful woman before, and he took a few more glances at her.
This is Fang Wenping?
The woman from the Fang family who does not recognize her relatives?
Dong Xuebing did not expect this woman to be so pretty and thought she is a mean aunt!
