Power and Wealth-Chapter 1676

Evening.

Inside the KTV private room.

Dong Xuebing and Fang Wenping both turned to leave when they saw each other, ignoring the attempts of Xie Ran and Fang Shuiling to stop them.

"Xiao Ran, let go!" Dong Xuebing shouted.

Xie Ran pulled him, "Brother-in-law, what are you doing?"

"What do you mean, what am I doing? Are you trying to fool me?" Dong Xuebing said.

Xie Ran awkwardly said, "I didn't lie to you. Today is Xiaoling's lunar birthday."

"Then why did you say only Xiaoling's friends were invited?" Dong Xuebing pointed at Fang Wenping. "What's going on with her? Do you know we don't get along, and you still drag me here? Just four people and you call it a birthday party? So you're just trying to fool me. Well done, Xiao Ran! You even fooled me!"

Xie Ran stopped Dong Xuebing by the door while Fang Shuiling pulled Fang Wenping on the couch.

"Auntie, you always celebrate my birthday with me every year!" Fang Shuiling held on tight.

Fang Wenping looked at her with a cold face, "Our family celebrates birthdays according to the solar calendar. When have we ever celebrated according to the lunar calendar? When you called me to come, I wondered why today is your birthday. I'm not old enough to forget your birthday, am I? Well, turns out you had another purpose, huh? If you had just called Xie Ran, I would have ignored him, but I gave you face for your birthday. I didn't argue with him. We'll talk about you two later. But why did you call Dong Xuebing? Huh? Are you deliberately disgusting me?" Dong Xuebing's appearance had already made Fang Wenping focus all her attention on him. She no longer cared about Xie Ran.

Fang Shuiling hurriedly said, "No, Auntie! You..."

Fang Wenping waved, "Now you and Xie Ran have won. I'm disgusted!"

Dong Xuebing, at the door, heard this and sneered, then turned to stare at Fang Wenping, "What did you say? Who's disgusting who?"

Xie Ran quickly stopped them, "Don't fight, don't fight!"

Fang Wenping shouted at Dong Xuebing, "Who are you saying is disgusting?"

Fang Shuiling hurriedly pulled Fang Wenping and shouted, "Stop quarreling, both of you!"

Fang Wenping didn't listen, pointed at Dong Xuebing, and said, "I knew you were coming. I wouldn't have even entered this room if I knew. Being in the same room with you makes me uncomfortable all over!"

Dong Xuebing sneered, "Funny, living in the same house as you, I feel like jumping off the building from downstairs. It's better to die than to be disgusted to death!"

Fang Wenping retorted, "Then go die; jump off quickly!"

Dong Xuebing said to Xie Ran, "See that? What a woman of good character! You brought me here to celebrate her birthday with her? Have you drunk too much?"

Xie Ran pleaded with a mournful face, "Brother-in-law! How did you two end up like this? Can't we all get along?"

"It's impossible!" Dong Xuebing pointed at Fang Wenping. "Let me tell you, there's no way I'll get along with her!"

"Don't flatter yourself!" Fang Wenping said coldly. "Can't get along with me? Do you think I want to see you? You bastard!"

Dong Xuebing got angry, "You're cursing at me, huh?"

"What's wrong with me cursing at you?" Fang Wenping was fierce.

Dong Xuebing took two steps and approached her, "It's Xiaoling's birthday today, so I'm giving her face and don't feel like arguing with you. But you started cursing at me? Are you treating me like a pushover?"

Fang Wenping said, "There's no one I, Fang Wenping, am afraid to curse!"

Dong Xuebing and Fang Wenping seemed to have deep-seated grievances, like enemies from a past life. Every time they met, they couldn't help but argue.

Xie Ran was at a loss, standing there trying to mediate, but to no avail. frёeωebɳovel.com

Just then, Fang Shuiling, who had been silent for a while, exploded!

"Shut up!" Fang Shuiling shouted, tears streaming down her face. Big teardrops fell uncontrollably as she cried and exclaimed, "What are you all doing... sob... What are you all doing... Today... sob... Today is my... birthday... sob... Can't you... Can't you respect me a little... Why... Why do you always have to fight..."

Everyone was stunned.

No one expected the usually quiet Fang Shuiling to suddenly shout and cry so loudly.

Then, Fang Shuiling's next move shocked everyone even more. She wiped away her tears, grabbed the birthday cake on the table, and fiercely threw it out. With a thud, it hit the wall and fell. The cake box opened, and the cream cake inside shattered. She shouted, "Get out... Get out... sob... It's not my birthday... I'm not having a birthday!"

Xie Ran was startled and hurriedly ran up to hug her. "Xiaoling, it's okay. It's okay. Let's ignore them. Let's not get angry."

Fang Shuiling cried even harder!

"Don't cry," Xie Ran kept consoling her.

Dong Xuebing, annoyed by Fang Wenping, had just been itching to fight, but now, seeing the girl in such a state, he was suddenly embarrassed. He hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to do. He was afraid of women crying, especially such a quiet and sensible girl like her. Dong Xuebing also felt that he had gone too far.

It was her birthday!

And his as well, what was he doing?

Dong Xuebing cleared his throat, "Um..."

Ignoring everyone, Fang Shuiling sat on the sofa and continued to cry.

Xie Ran hugged her on one side, comforting her with words of consolation.

On the other side, Fang Wenping, who had been silent, looked at her niece, hesitated momentarily, and then walked up to her. She looked coldly at Xie Ran and said, "Who allowed you to hug my niece?"

Xie Ran hesitated, "I..."

"Let go!" Fang Wenping said sternly.

Xie Ran had to move away to make room for Fang Wenping.

After sitting down where Xie Ran was, Fang Wenping hugged her niece, saying softly, "Silly girl, why cry when you're all grown up."

Fang Shuiling cried, "I don't need you to care! I don't need you to care!"

Fang Wenping smiled warmly, "Look, you're still mad at me."

Fang Shuiling ignored her, turned her head to the other side, and continued to wipe her tears.

Fang Wenping tightened her arms around her niece and pulled her closer. "Alright, alright, don't cry. Auntie was wrong, okay?"

Fang Shuiling still didn't say anything.

Fang Wenping was helpless. She leaned over and kissed her niece's forehead, "My baby, don't be mad at Auntie anymore, okay? Look at you crying like a little kitten. Auntie feels heartbroken seeing you like this. You're my darling, don't make me feel uncomfortable, okay? Be good, don't cry."

Fang Shuiling glanced at her, then slowly reached out and hugged Fang Wenping, burying her head in her chest, "Mm!"

"This child, Auntie just bought new clothes, and you're getting my clothes all wet with your tears, hehe," Fang Wenping laughed.

Seemingly out of spite, when Fang Shuiling heard this, she shook her head again and wiped her tears onto Fang Wenping's clothes, saying, "It's your fault for making me upset."

Fang Wenping said lovingly, "Auntie, how could Auntie bear to upset you? It's you, acting like such a big temper as a child, you scared me. You're getting more and more disobedient. When you were young, you used to listen to everything Auntie said, so well-behaved."

Fang Shuiling hummed playfully.

Fang Wenping smiled and kissed her on the head, "Little troublemaker."

Dong Xuebing watched with a strange expression. He never expected that the troublemaker from the Fang family, Fang Wenping, would have such a maternal side. Seeing her gentle attitude towards Fang Shuiling, Dong Xuebing couldn't help but feel goosebumps. He never thought such a troublemaker would have such a gentle side, just like a mother. In his heart, his impression of Fang Wenping changed slightly.

After Fang Shuiling was comforted and stopped crying, although her eyes were still red, Fang Wenping wiped her eyes with a tissue. When Fang Shuiling raised her head, she looked at Dong Xuebing.

Xie Ran also looked at his brother-in-law.

Dong Xuebing was caught off guard and awkwardly said, "Um, anyway, I don't have anything else to do if I go back, so, um, let's sing."

Fang Shuiling finally smiled.

Fang Wenping patted her niece's head helplessly, "Little brat."

Xie Ran was also happy. Looking at the ruined cake on the floor, he said, "Let me order another cake." After speaking, he took out his phone and made a call.

Looking at her "masterpiece," Fang Shuiling suddenly felt embarrassed and blushed, "Auntie, was I embarrassing just now?"

Fang Wenping laughed, "You were embarrassing."

"Oh," Fang Shuiling hit her, "It's all your fault."

Fang Wenping chuckled, "Alright, alright, it's my fault, it's my fault."

Dong Xuebing also found a place on the sofa. Since it was a presidential suite, it was very spacious, so he naturally didn't sit close to Fang Wenping but sat far away.

Soon, the cake was brought in.

After putting candles on it, Fang Shuiling invited everyone over.

Dong Xuebing glanced at Fang Wenping and reluctantly sat down.

Fang Wenping completely ignored him and acted as if he didn't exist.

"The candles are ready."

"Make a wish and blow out the candles, Xiaoling."

"Okay... One... Two... Three!"

"Happy birthday, happy birthday!"

After blowing out the candles, Fang Shuiling started cutting the cake and gave a piece to Fang Wenping and Dong Xuebing, saying, "Today is my birthday, Auntie, Brother Dong, please don't quarrel."

Dong Xuebing remained silent.

Fang Wenping also didn't respond to her.
