"Alright, since your uncle-in-law has already said so, let’s follow his advice."
Xu Jingyi swallowed all the thick calcium milk in her mouth before speaking, "Just focus on recovering, I’ll bring you als every day from now on."
"That’s going to be tough on you, Aunt!"
Lin Fan could tell, Xu Jingyi’s offer to bring als was probably just a cover for sothing else, but since she had said it already, he couldn’t refuse anymore.
"It’s no trouble at all. It’s rare to find soone as loyal and righteous as you, unlike those crappy leaders. Right after County Magistrate Luan was buried, they started settling scores with Nie Yinghong. Early today we had to audit the accounts. You don’t need to na nas to know they’re preparing to take down the Office Director. Ah, it’s really ’out of sight, out of mind’."
Xu Jingyi sighed deeply, and upon hearing this, Lin Fan showed a face of surprise: "They’re taking action against Nie Yinghong so soon... Could this chill people’s hearts?"
"That just ans she offended soone during her tenure. Now that County Magistrate Luan isn’t around to protect her, they’re definitely out for revenge. That’s why I always tell your aunt, leave so room when dealing with people so you can et pleasantly again in the future. Nie Yinghong is definitely in trouble now. If they find even a small issue, she’ll lose her job."
Liu Shengrui had long been unsurprised by such events: "It’s not just Nie Yinghong, but also the newly appointed Health Bureau deputy director, who is County Magistrate Luan’s nephew. This ti, he might also face retribution. Wu Duowen has been a slick figure in the county for many years. Forrly forced into a secondary position, the fall of County Magistrate Luan ans ’the monkeys scatter.’"
"This is getting interesting!"
Leaning against the headboard, Lin Fan clearly rembered the forr Health Bureau Director Wu Duowen, who had been displaced by Zhu Defu in serving as a pawn, only to discover later that it was County Magistrate Luan’s nephew who took over.
"Alright, it’s ti for us to go to work. Rember to drink the pork rib soup. If you need anything, just call your aunt. We won’t keep you from recovering."
After finishing speaking, Liu Shengrui pulled Xu Jingyi downstairs. Watching Xu Jingyi glance back every three steps, Lin Fan knew she was reluctant to leave but genuinely had no excuse to stay. However, he really wasn’t in the mood to repeat the experience, especially now that the situation felt a bit strange: "Isn’t the cleanup of Nie Yinghong too hasty?"
On the electric scooter, Liu Shengrui, gripping the handlebars, furrowed his brow: "Honey, have you heard? There are rumors about Lin Fan liking married won. Do you think it’s true?"
"How would I know if it’s true or not? But since that’s the case, I’ll just keep my distance from him."
Xu Jingyi, who felt guilty, quickly responded while sitting at the back.
"What are you thinking about? I didn’t say he’s after you. After all, you’re Xu Hui Zhen’s aunt; even if he’s bold, he wouldn’t touch you. I’m telling you, now is the ti he needs people to care about him the most. Don’t drop the ball. From the look of things, he’s probably with Zhao Chuanchun now, and he has a firm foothold in Red Flag County. We really need to maintain this relationship well; it might be of use in the future, and I could rise to the occasion."
Hearing Liu Shengrui’s words, Xu Jingyi finally relaxed, little did he know that Lin Fan had played around with his wife a long ti ago, and many tis at that.
"Then aren’t you afraid he might really get so bad idea, after all, I’m just his girlfriend’s aunt, not his real aunt!"
"Why would I? Whether it’s anyone’s aunt, she’s still a senior. Besides, it takes two to tango. If you don’t agree, he wouldn’t dare to force himself on you. I have absolute confidence in you."
Liu Shengrui squinted his eyes, "Tonight after work, I’ll fetch an old hen from the village. Tomorrow morning, you can make him so chicken soup to nourish him. This is a real opportunity sent by God, don’t ss it up, or don’t bla for turning my back."
"He really does need so nourishnt!"
Xu Jingyi blushed looking ahead, unable to deny the rushed yet satisfying round they had that morning, especially the intense and thrilling mont at the end. Thinking about it made her feel crazy.
"Right, have you spoken to Huizhen about this yet?"
Liu Shengrui parked the electric scooter at the entrance of the Education Bureau and asked curiously.
"Not yet, I plan to call her later. After all, Lin Fan is injured and probably hasn’t told her. As her aunt, I naturally can’t keep this from her. I’ll see when she’s free to co visit him."
Xu Jingyi tidied her windblown hair after getting off the scooter.
"Since you haven’t said anything yet, let’s keep it that way for now. If Li Huizhen cos, you won’t be as needed, wouldn’t that interfere with things? Now is the ti to seize the opportunity to impress him. Make him feel indebted to us. That way, he’ll definitely try to repay us without us having to ask."
Liu Shengrui’s scheming was quite apparent, while the mostly silent Xu Jingyi rely nodded, realizing she really couldn’t let Li Huizhen co over, lest it disrupt their plans.
"Alright, stop standing there; hurry up and get to work. It might be midnight before I’m back from the village, rember to cook dinner for him and take good care of his health tonight!"
After saying this, Liu Shengrui drove off towards the County Governnt, oblivious to the fact that Xu Jingyi behind him was already bursting with laughter, determined to have a fulfilling night no matter what.
