Evening.

Inside the KTV private room.

When Dong Xuebin and Fang Wenping saw each other, they both turned to leave. No matter how Xie Ran and Fang Shuiling tried to stop them, neither of them intended to stay.

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

Xie Ran held onto him, "Brother-in-law, what are you doing!" The Power of Time and Wealth 1676

Dong Xuebin said, "What do you mean, what am I doing? So you were just tricking me?"

Xie Ran said awkwardly, "I didn't lie to you. Today really is Xiao Ling's Lunar Calendar birthday."

"Then you said everyone coming was Xiao Ling's friends?" Dong Xuebin pointed at Fang Wenping, "What's with her? You know we don't get along, and you still dragged me here? Just the four of us, and you call it a birthday party? So you just tricked me into coming? You're something, Xiao Ran! Even I got fooled by you!"

Xie Ran said anxiously, "Brother-in-law, it's not!"

Dong Xuebin said, "I don't care what your plans are, I have things to do back home!"

"It's Xiao Ling's birthday today, can't you even give her that much face?" Xie Ran said.

Dong Xuebin looked at him angrily and said, "That's just my temper, no one's face works!"

While Xie Ran was persuading Dong Xuebin near the door, Fang Shuiling was pulling Fang Wenping on the sofa.

"Aunt! You've spent every birthday with me!" Fang Shuiling wouldn't let go, stubbornly holding onto her.

Fang Wenping didn't give her a kind look, "Our family always celebrates Solar Calendar birthdays, when have we ever celebrated Lunar Calendar birthdays? When you asked me to come, I was still wondering, thinking, 'Why is this girl's birthday today?' I'm not senile enough to forget your birthday, right? So, you had other intentions? It's fine if you called Xie Ran, I can't be bothered with him. I'll give you face for your birthday and not bother with him. We'll talk about you two later, but why did you call Dong Xuebin? Huh? On purpose to disgust me?" Dong Xuebin's appearance had long made Fang Wenping focus all her attention on him. Fang Wenping was no longer paying attention to Xie Ran.

Fang Shuiling quickly said, "I didn't! Aunt! You..."

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

Dong Xuebin, who was at the door, heard this. He chuckled and turned to stare into Fang Wenping's eyes, "What did you say! Who's disgusting who?"

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

Fang Wenping shouted at Dong Xuebin, "Who are you calling disgusting?"

Fang Shuiling quickly pulled on Fang Wenping, shouting, "Stop arguing!"

Fang Wenping didn't listen. Pointing at Dong Xuebin, she said, "If I had known you were coming, I wouldn't have even entered this door. Just breathing in the same room as you makes me feel uncomfortable all over!"

Dong Xuebin sneered, "What a coincidence, living in the same house as you makes me want to jump from the building downstairs. I'd rather die and be done with it. It's better to die from jumping off a building than to be disgusted to death!"

Fang Wenping retorted, "Go die, go jump, hurry!" The Power of Time and Wealth 1676

Dong Xuebin said to Xie Ran, "See that? What kind of woman is that! And you dragged me here to sing and celebrate her birthday? Are you drunk?"

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

"Can't get along!" Dong Xuebin pointed at Fang Wenping, "Let me tell you! I can't get along with her!"

"Stop being so presumptuous!" Fang Wenping said coldly, "Get along with you? Do you think I want to see you? You little bastard!"

Dong Xuebin got angry, "You're cursing, aren't you?"

"So what if I curse you?" Fang Wenping's aura was fierce.

Dong Xuebin went up two steps and walked in front of her, "Today is Xiao Ling's birthday, I'm giving Xiao Ling some face and I'm too lazy to scold you, but you're doing great, even scolding me? Do you really think I'm an easy target?"

Fang Wenping said: "There's no one Fang Wenping wouldn't dare to scold!"

Dong Xuebin had already lost count of how many times he had quarreled with Fang Wenping. It seemed like the two of them had a deep-seated hatred from a previous life, and they couldn't help but argue as soon as they met.

Xie Ran was helpless, standing there trying to persuade them but unable to stop them.

But just then, Fang Shuiling, who hadn't said a word for a long time, suddenly exploded!

"Shut up!" Fang Shuiling shouted, and tears streamed down her face. Big teardrops kept falling and couldn't be stopped. While crying, she shouted, "What are you doing... Wuwu... What are you doing... Today... Wuwu... Today is my... birthday... Wuwu... Can you... can you respect me a little bit... Why... do you always have to fight..."

Everyone was stunned.

No one expected that the always quiet and gentle Fang Shuiling would shout and cry so loudly.

Then, Fang Shuiling's next move made everyone gasp. Fang Shuiling wiped away her tears, grabbed the birthday cake on the table, and threw it out hard. With a splatter, it hit the wall and fell down. The cake box opened, and all the cream cake inside was crushed. She shouted, "Get out, all of you... Get out... Wuwuwu... I'm not celebrating... I'm not celebrating my birthday!"

Xie Ran was startled and hurriedly ran up to hug her, "Xiao Ling, it's okay, it's okay, we'll ignore them, ignore them, don't be angry."

Fang Shuiling cried even harder!

"Don't cry." Xie Ran kept coaxing her.

Dong Xuebin was originally full of anger because of Fang Wenping, and he couldn't wait to hit someone just now, but now that he saw the girl like this, Dong Xuebin was embarrassed for a moment. He touched his nose and looked very awkward, hesitating a few times, not knowing what to do. He was afraid of women crying, especially such a quiet and sensible girl. Dong Xuebin also felt that he had gone a little too far.

It was her birthday!

What was he doing!

Dong Xuebin coughed, "This..." The Power of Time and Wealth 1676

Fang Shuiling ignored everyone, sat down on the sofa, and continued to cry there.

Xie Ran hugged her from the side, coaxing her left and right, saying words of comfort.

Fang Wenping also stopped talking, looked at her little niece, hesitated for a moment, and still walked up, coldly looking at Xie Ran, "Who told you to hug my niece?"

Xie Ran said, "I..."

"Get up!" Fang Wenping said stiffly.

Xie Ran had no choice but to push away a little, making room for Fang Wenping.

With a thump, Fang Wenping sat in the place where Xie Ran was before, reached out and hugged her little niece, and said softly, "Stinky girl, you're so old and still crying."

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

Fang Wenping smiled warmly, "Look, look, you're still angry with your aunt."

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

Fang Wenping tightened her arms and pulled her a little closer again, "Okay, be good, don't cry, don't cry, Aunt is wrong, isn't it okay if Aunt is wrong?"

Fang Shuiling still didn't say a word.

Fang Wenping was helpless, leaned her head over and kissed her forehead, "My little baby, don't be angry with Aunt, okay? Look at how much you've cried, you look like a little cat, Aunt feels sorry for you, you are the apple of my eye, don't make Aunt uncomfortable, be good, don't cry."

Fang Shuiling looked at her, pouting.

Fang Wenping then hugged her little niece, gently patting her head, smiling and doting, "Aunt won't leave, I'll stay with our little princess for her birthday today."

Fang Shuiling looked at her again, then slowly reached out and hugged Fang Wenping, burying her head in her chest, "Mmm!"

"This child, Aunt just bought this outfit, you're getting tears all over me, haha." Fang Wenping chuckled.

Fang Shuiling seemed to be sulking. As soon as she heard this, she shook her head left and right, rubbing her tears hard on her, "Who told you to make me angry."

Fang Wenping said with a motherly expression, "How could Aunt bear to make you angry? It's you, a little kid, throwing such a big tantrum, you scared me. You're getting more and more disobedient. You were so good when you were little, you listened to everything Aunt said, you were so well-behaved."

Fang Shuiling hummed softly in a spoiled manner.

Fang Wenping kissed her hair again with a smile, "You little rascal."

Dong Xuebin watched from the side with a strange look. He didn't expect that Fang Family's female gangster, that Fang Wenping who was full of foul language, actually had such a maternal side. Look at how gentle she was with Fang Shuiling, Dong Xuebin got goosebumps all over. He never thought that such a female gangster would have such a gentle side, just like a mother. His impression of Fang Wenping in his heart also changed a little bit.

Fang Shuiling was coaxed and stopped crying, but her eyes were still red. After Fang Wenping wiped her eyes with a napkin, Fang Shuiling looked up, her big eyes looking at Dong Xuebin.

Xie Ran also looked at her Brother-in-law.

Dong Xuebin was in an awkward situation, "Ahem, well, I don't have anything to do when I go back anyway, um, let's sing, let's sing."

Fang Shuiling then revealed a smile.

Fang Wenping helplessly patted her head, "You little thing."

Xie Ran was also very happy, looking at the smashed cake on the ground, and said, "I'll order another cake." After speaking, she took out her phone and made a call.

Looking at her own "masterpiece", Fang Shuiling realized that she was very embarrassed, and her face turned red, "Aunt, was I, was I particularly embarrassing just now?"

Fang Wenping said happily, "You were extremely embarrassing."

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

Fang Wenping chuckled, "Okay, okay, it's my fault, it's my fault."

Dong Xuebin also found a place on the Sofa. This was a Presidential Suite, very spacious, so he naturally didn't go to Fang Wenping's side, but sat far away next to her.

Before long, the cake was delivered.

After the candles were inserted, Fang Shuiling invited everyone to sit over.

Dong Xuebin glanced at Fang Wenping, still very unwilling to sit down.

Fang Wenping didn't pay any attention to him at all, didn't even look at him, as if he didn't exist.

"The candles are ready."

"Make a wish and blow out the candles, Xiao Ling."

"Come on... one... two... three!"

"Happy birthday, happy birthday!"

After the procedure was completed, Fang Shuiling began to cut the cake, giving Fang Wenping and Dong Xuebin each a piece first, "It's my birthday today, Aunt, Brother Dong, please don't quarrel."

Dong Xuebin remained noncommittal.

Fang Wenping didn't respond to this. (To be continued.)

Fang Wenping was a little surprised, "Brother-in-law?"

"Hey, Wenping." Dong Xuebin smiled at her.

Fang Wenping looked at him strangely, "Why are you here?"

"I came with Xiao Ling." Dong Xuebin said.

Fang Wenping looked at Fang Shuiling, "Xiao Ling, you know each other?"

Fang Shuiling nodded, "Yeah, we're Friends."

"Oh." Fang Wenping didn't ask any further questions, and then looked at Xie Ran, "Xiao Ran, this is my Brother-in-law, Dong Xuebin."

Xie Ran shook hands with Dong Xuebin, "Hello, Brother Dong."

"Hello." Dong Xuebin also shook his hand.

After a brief greeting, everyone sat down again.

Fang Wenping and Xie Ran sat together on the Sofa, Fang Shuiling sat on the other side, and Dong Xuebin naturally sat next to Xiao Ling.

"Wenping, when is your Solar Calendar birthday?" Fang Shuiling asked.

Fang Wenping said: "It's the Evening of the 7th."

"Oh, that's tomorrow." Fang Shuiling said.

Xie Ran smiled and said, "Yes, so I booked the Presidential Suite at The Power of Time and Wealth early to celebrate Wenping's birthday."

Fang Wenping smiled sweetly.

Dong Xuebin looked around the Private Room and said, "This place is pretty good."

"Of course." Xie Ran said proudly: "The Power of Time and Wealth is the best entertainment venue in the capital. It's not something ordinary people can come to. I'm a VIP member here."

Dong Xuebin laughed, "You're a VIP member?"

"What's wrong?" Xie Ran looked at him.

Dong Xuebin said: "Nothing, I just think it's quite a coincidence."

Xie Ran didn't understand what he meant.

Fang Wenping asked: "Xiao Ling, what do you usually do?"

Fang Shuiling said: "I just work."

"Where do you work?" Fang Wenping asked.

Fang Shuiling said vaguely: "Just a small company."

Fang Wenping nodded, not asking too much.

At this moment, the waiter came in with the dishes.

"Let's eat first." Xie Ran greeted everyone.

Everyone picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

After eating for a while, Xie Ran suddenly said: "By the way, Brother Dong, what do you do?"

Dong Xuebin said casually: "I'm just messing around."

Xie Ran frowned, "Messing around? What kind of job is that?"

Dong Xuebin said: "Whatever makes money, I'll do."

Xie Ran looked at him with some disdain, thinking that this person was probably unemployed.

Fang Wenping also looked down on Dong Xuebin a bit. Although she knew that her Brother-in-law was very capable, she didn't know what he was doing now.

Only Fang Shuiling didn't think much of it, she knew that Dong Xuebin was very powerful.

After eating for a while, Xie Ran suggested: "Why don't we play a game?"

"What game?" Fang Wenping asked.

Xie Ran smiled and said: "Let's play Dice. Whoever loses has to drink."

"Okay." Fang Wenping agreed.

Fang Shuiling also nodded.

Dong Xuebin didn't care either.

So, Xie Ran asked the waiter to bring the Dice.

"Let's start." Xie Ran shook the Dice and threw it on the table.

Fang Wenping also shook it and threw it down.

Fang Shuiling followed suit.

Finally, it was Dong Xuebin's turn. He picked up the Dice cup and shook it a few times, then threw it down casually.

"Open it!" Xie Ran shouted.

Everyone opened their Dice cups.

Xie Ran was the smallest, he looked at Dong Xuebin and said, "Brother Dong, it seems you're going to drink."

Dong Xuebin smiled and picked up the wine glass.

After drinking a glass of wine, Dong Xuebin felt a little bored. He looked at Xie Ran and said, "Is there anything more exciting to play?"

Xie Ran thought for a moment and said, "How about we play strip poker?"

"Strip poker?" Fang Wenping's face turned red.

Fang Shuiling also frowned.

Dong Xuebin laughed and said, "That's a good idea, I like it."

Xie Ran looked at Fang Wenping and Fang Shuiling and said, "What do you think?"

Fang Wenping hesitated.

Fang Shuiling said: "I don't want to play."

Xie Ran said: "It's just for fun, don't be so serious."

Fang Shuiling still shook her head.

Xie Ran was a little disappointed, but he didn't force it. He looked at Dong Xuebin and said, "Since they don't want to play, let's forget it."

Dong Xuebin shrugged and said, "Alright then."

Seeing that they weren't playing strip poker, Fang Wenping and Fang Shuiling breathed a sigh of relief.

However, at this moment, Dong Xuebin suddenly said: "How about this, let's play a bigger game."

"What game?" Xie Ran asked.

Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "Let's bet money. One game, one hundred thousand."

"One hundred thousand?" Xie Ran was a little surprised.

Fang Wenping and Fang Shuiling were also stunned.

Dong Xuebin said: "What's wrong? Are you scared?"

Xie Ran gritted his teeth and said: "Who's scared? I'm just afraid you won't have the money."

Dong Xuebin laughed and said: "Don't worry, I have plenty of money."

Xie Ran said: "Okay, let's bet one hundred thousand. But let's make it clear, we can't go back on our word."

Dong Xuebin said: "Of course."

So, the two started betting money to play Dice.

At first, Xie Ran won a few games, but later, Dong Xuebin started winning continuously.

Soon, Xie Ran lost several hundred thousand.

His face turned pale, and he started to panic.

Fang Wenping was also a little worried, she whispered: "Xiao Ran, don't play anymore."

Xie Ran didn't listen to her, he was already addicted to gambling.

Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "What's wrong? Are you scared?"

Xie Ran gritted his teeth and said: "Who's scared? I'll definitely win you back."

So, the two continued to bet.

But the more Xie Ran bet, the more he lost.

Soon, he lost all the money he had brought.

His face was ashen, and he was completely dumbfounded.

Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "What's wrong? You don't have any money?"

Xie Ran stammered: "I...I..."

Dong Xuebin said: "If you don't have any money, then forget it."

Xie Ran was unwilling to give up, he looked at Fang Wenping and said: "Wenping, lend me some money."

Fang Wenping hesitated, she didn't want to lend him money.

But seeing Xie Ran's pleading eyes, she couldn't bear to refuse.

So, she took out her bank card and handed it to Xie Ran.

Xie Ran took the bank card and immediately transferred the money to Dong Xuebin.

But even with Fang Wenping's money, he still lost to Dong Xuebin.

Soon, Fang Wenping's money was also lost.

Xie Ran was completely desperate, he slumped on the Sofa, his eyes blank.

Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "It seems you really don't have any money."

Xie Ran didn't say a word, he was completely defeated.

Fang Wenping was also very angry, she blamed Xie Ran for being too impulsive.

Dong Xuebin looked at Xie Ran and said: "Since you don't have any money, then how about this, why don't you kneel down and call me 'Dad', and I'll forget about it?"

"You!" Xie Ran was furious.

Fang Wenping also said angrily: "Don't go too far!"

Dong Xuebin laughed and said: "I'm just joking, why are you so serious?"

Xie Ran gritted his teeth, he wanted to beat Dong Xuebin up, but he knew he was no match for him.

Dong Xuebin ignored him, he turned to Fang Shuiling and said: "Xiao Ling, let's go."

Fang Shuiling nodded and followed Dong Xuebin out of the Private Room.

Fang Wenping looked at their backs and felt very puzzled. She didn't understand why Fang Shuiling was with Dong Xuebin.

After Dong Xuebin and Fang Shuiling left, Xie Ran was still sitting on the Sofa in a Daze.

Fang Wenping sighed and said: "Let's go, I'll take you home."

Xie Ran nodded numbly.

The two left The Power of Time and Wealth.

On the other side, after Dong Xuebin and Fang Shuiling left The Power of Time and Wealth, they got into a car.

"Brother Dong, you were too much just now." Fang Shuiling said.

Dong Xuebin laughed and said: "I was just teaching him a lesson, who told him to be so arrogant."

Fang Shuiling shook her head and said: "You shouldn't have gambled with him, what if you lost?"

Dong Xuebin said: "How could I lose? I have special abilities."

Fang Shuiling rolled her eyes at him.

Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "Alright, let's go eat something."

Fang Shuiling said: "Okay."

So, Dong Xuebin drove Fang Shuiling to a restaurant.

The two had a meal and then went home.

The next day, Dong Xuebin received a call from Xiao Wang.

"Brother Dong, something happened." Xiao Wang said anxiously.

Dong Xuebin frowned and said: "What happened?"

Xiao Wang said: "The Fang Family is looking for you."

"The Fang Family?" Dong Xuebin was stunned.

Xiao Wang said: "Yes, they said you offended Fang Wenping's boyfriend, and they want to teach you a lesson."

Dong Xuebin laughed and said: "Are they out of their minds? They dare to provoke me?"

Xiao Wang said: "Brother Dong, the Fang Family is very powerful in the capital, you have to be careful."

Dong Xuebin said: "I know, I'm not afraid of them."

Xiao Wang said: "Brother Dong, if you need anything, just tell me."

Dong Xuebin said: "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Dong Xuebin's face turned cold. He didn't expect the Fang Family to come looking for him so quickly.

"It seems I need to teach them a lesson." Dong Xuebin thought to himself.

He originally didn't want to cause trouble, but since the Fang Family was looking for trouble, he wouldn't be polite.

Dong Xuebin decided to investigate the Fang Family's background first.

He called someone and asked them to investigate the Fang Family's information.

Soon, he received the Fang Family's information.

The Fang Family was indeed very powerful in the capital, they had a lot of influence in both the political and business circles.

However, Dong Xuebin was not afraid of them. He had seen even more powerful people before.

"So what if they're powerful? I'll still beat them up." Dong Xuebin thought to himself.

He decided to wait for the Fang Family to come to him. He wanted to see what they were going to do.

A few days later, Dong Xuebin was walking on the street when he was suddenly stopped by a group of people.

"Are you Dong Xuebin?" a man asked.

Dong Xuebin looked at them and said: "That's right, I am. Who are you?"

The man said: "We are from the Fang Family, we want to talk to you."

Dong Xuebin laughed and said: "Talk to me? What do you want to talk about?"

The man said: "We want you to apologize to Xie Ran."

Dong Xuebin said: "Apologize? Why should I apologize?"

The man said: "Because you offended him."

Dong Xuebin said: "He offended me first, why should I apologize to him?"

The man said: "We don't care about that, you have to apologize to him."

Dong Xuebin said: "What if I don't apologize?"

The man said: "If you don't apologize, then don't blame us for being impolite."

Dong Xuebin laughed and said: "Impolite? How are you going to be impolite?"

The man waved his hand, and the group of people surrounded Dong Xuebin.

"We're going to teach you a lesson." the man said.

Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "I'm afraid you don't have the ability."

The man was furious, he shouted: "Beat him up!"

The group of people rushed towards Dong Xuebin.

Dong Xuebin didn't move, he waited for them to get close before suddenly attacking.

He punched one person, kicked another, and soon, all the people were knocked to the ground.

The man was stunned, he didn't expect Dong Xuebin to be so powerful.

"You...you wait, we're not done yet." the man said, then ran away with the others.

Dong Xuebin didn't chase after them, he just stood there and smiled.

"The Fang Family is nothing more than this." Dong Xuebin thought to himself.

He didn't take the Fang Family seriously at all.

After this incident, Dong Xuebin thought that the Fang Family would give up.

But he was wrong.

The Fang Family was not willing to give up.

They decided to use their influence to deal with Dong Xuebin.

They used their connections to put pressure on Dong Xuebin's company, making it difficult for his company to operate.

Dong Xuebin's company soon faced a crisis.

Dong Xuebin was very angry when he found out about this.

He didn't expect the Fang Family to be so despicable.

"They're really asking for it." Dong Xuebin thought to himself.

He decided to fight back.

He used his own connections to fight against the Fang Family.

Dong Xuebin's connections were also very powerful, and soon, the Fang Family's influence was weakened.

The Fang Family was shocked, they didn't expect Dong Xuebin to have such powerful connections.

They started to panic.

They knew that if this continued, they would definitely be defeated by Dong Xuebin.

So, they decided to negotiate with Dong Xuebin.

They sent someone to find Dong Xuebin and said that they wanted to make peace.

Dong Xuebin laughed when he heard this.

"Make peace? It's too late." Dong Xuebin thought to himself.

He had already decided to destroy the Fang Family.

He didn't want to give them any chance to make a comeback.

Dong Xuebin refused to negotiate with the Fang Family.

He continued to use his connections to attack the Fang Family.

The Fang Family was soon defeated by Dong Xuebin.

Their influence was completely destroyed.

The Fang Family was completely finished.

After destroying the Fang Family, Dong Xuebin felt very happy.

He had finally avenged himself.

He had also taught the Fang Family a lesson.

He wanted them to know that he was not someone they could provoke.

Dong Xuebin's reputation in the capital also increased greatly after this incident.

Everyone knew that he was a very powerful person.

No one dared to provoke him anymore.

Dong Xuebin's life returned to normal.

He continued to live his life happily.

He occasionally went out to play with Fang Shuiling.

Their relationship was getting better and better.

Dong Xuebin felt very satisfied with his life.

He had everything he wanted.

He had money, power, and a beautiful girlfriend.

He was the envy of everyone.

Dong Xuebin knew that he was very lucky.

He was grateful for everything he had.

He decided to cherish everything he had and live his life to the fullest.
