Chapter 660: The Warmth and Coldness of Human Relationships and the Changing Nature of the World
"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 meals every day from now on."
"That’s going to be tough on you, Aunt!"
Lin Fan could tell, Xu Jingyi’s offer to bring meals was probably just a cover for something else, but since she had said it already, he couldn’t refuse anymore.
"It’s no trouble at all. It’s rare to find someone 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 name names 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 means she offended someone 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 some room when dealing with people so you can meet 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 time, he might also face retribution. Wu Duowen has been a slick figure in the county for many years. Formerly forced into a secondary position, the fall of County Magistrate Luan means ’the monkeys scatter.’"
