Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

Ouyang Family, Bai Qiu took Ye Qingqing back to their room to rest, leaving only the Ouyang Family's grandfather and grandsons and Song Bu with his son in the study.

"Grandfather, you mean the other party has a bigger background than you?"

Song Yun asked, somewhat surprised.

"It's not the same, after all, I have been retired for so many years now, a county official is inferior to a current one, you should understand this principle."

Song Yun slightly furrowed his brow and nodded, but if he had to go through what just happened again, he would still slap without hesitation!

"Damn it, why all this fuss! I want to see how Kang Wei explains himself later! If it's just some medical expenses for compensation, then this matter can be dropped, but if there are other unreasonable demands, I'll take you to file a complaint directly!"

Song Bu said loudly after taking a sip of tea.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Ouyang Shu, the old master, helplessly supported his forehead; what kind of people were these, utterly uncouth, but what was frightening was that Song Bu actually had the power to back it up!

"Old Master, people from the Kang Family have arrived."

The butler knocked on the study door lightly and said.

"Let them in."

The inevitable cannot be escaped forever, and a few minutes later, a middle-aged man exuding authority entered the room with Kang Xi.

Kang Xi, covering one side of his face, glanced at Song Yun with resentment and shouted, "Dad! It was him who hit me! Arrest him quickly!"

"Song Bu, long time no see."

Kang Wei, paying no heed to the woman's unreasonable demand, kept his gaze fixed on Song Bu, who hadn't changed much in appearance, even after more than twenty years.

Especially those eyes, gleaming with keenness, as if with one look he could see through all matters of the world.

"Kang Wei, there's a reason behind everything. Our side did suffer a little loss; how about we compensate you for the medical expenses?"

Song Bu got straight to the point.

"Old Master, what do you think?"

Kang Wei, with his usual expression, said, "No matter how young and impulsive, you can't just go around hitting people; my daughter is the pearl of the Kang Family, raised in pampering and luxury. And now, someone has swollen her face. Does our Kang Family not care about face?"

With that, he slammed the table fiercely, and his aura suddenly changed, filling the study with an immense and boundless pressure.

"After all, it's young people, eh? Who hasn't had a moment of hot blood?"

Ouyang Shu, the old master, tried to smooth things over, "Moreover, this matter is not entirely Song Yun's fault. Did Kang Xi not start by having someone hit Song Yun? If this young man hadn't learned martial arts for a couple of years, he would probably be in the hospital by now."

"But now it is my daughter who has been hit!"

Kang Wei said assertively, "If this young man is forgiven so easily, if he can hit my daughter today, might he hit Number One's grandson tomorrow?!"

"Hey, that's not the way to talk about it," Song Bu quickly interjected. "Don't put so many big hats on us. State what you're thinking, we'll resolve what we can, and if not, we'll discuss it further, right?"

Kang Wei snorted coldly, "Didn't Song Yun take fifty lashes on your behalf from Old Wei a while ago? I think another fifty would do!"

"Impossible! Just how valuable is your daughter's face? Fifty lashes from Old Wei, let me tell you, we're not taking a single one; do whatever you wish. I'm not serving this!"

"Don't, don't, didn't everyone come here today to resolve the issue? Why cause such a big scene?"

Ouyang Shu, the old master, interfered and suggested, "How about this, we'll have Song Yun compensate Kang Xi one million for medical expenses, how does that sound?"

Kang Wei clenched his fists upon hearing this. These people kept steering the conversation towards his daughter, but was the situation really that simple?

It was about the Kang Family's face!

It was even more about his own face, Kang Wei's!

The daughter of a high-profile figure like him had been slapped in the face, her cheek swollen high—if he let this go lightly, who knows how many people would laugh at them!

"Ouyang patriarch, if you keep taking sides like this, we won't be able to come to an agreement,"

Kang Wei said with a somber expression, "The fact that Song Yun hit my daughter is established. If you don't want to talk, then I'll have to take matters into my own hands to seek justice for my daughter!"

"But the demands you're making are indeed unreasonable," Ouyang Rong interjected. "Everyone knows that Wei Lao's whip resounds through Forty-nine City. Song Yun just took fifty lashes; to have him take another fifty is practically asking for his life! What, is your daughter's face that precious?

Let's do this instead—since Ouyang Jie started the trouble, let's just have Kang Xi slap Ouyang Jie, and we'll call it even. How about that?"

It really was a case of trouble finding you without having to leave home!

Ouyang Jie was still daydreaming when he suddenly heard he was going to be slapped.

He looked up at Kang Xi. This woman became more unlikable as she grew older. It was a matter among us youngsters, didn't it suffice to have someone slap back if you get slapped? Was there really a need to make such a fuss and have your dad press down on us?

"Uncle Kang, I'm eighty percent responsible for this issue. Since you want an explanation, just let Kang Xi slap me and be done with it!"

Ouyang Jie stepped forward and said, "Besides, you really should discipline Kang Xi. Look at what she has become on the outside! Changing boyfriends every three days, a total mess in her private life. If this continues, I believe one day she will offend someone even the Kang Family can't afford to provoke!"

"????"

Kang Xi was stunned. At home, she had always been seen as the good girl, and thus was doted on by the older generations, fearing that this delicate flower would be dazzled.

But today!

Her true colors were laid bare by that bastard Ouyang Jie—right in front of her own father, pointing at her and calling her private life a mess! Stay tuned for updates on empire

Fuck!!!

Ouyang Jie, you bastard, may you not die a good death!!!

Ouyang Jie now wore an indifferent expression. It was just a slap; how strong could a girl be? But he despised her pretentious attitude so much that he was willing to take a heavy loss just to see her downfall!

Kang Wei's brows furrowed tightly upon hearing this; his first reaction was disbelief. After all, this was his daughter who had lived a pure and unsullied twenty-odd years at home—how could she be as unsavory as Ouyang Jie described?

"Ouyang Jie, you must take responsibility for your words! Understand?"

Ouyang Jie stood his ground and said arrogantly, "If a single word I've said is a lie, you can deal with me however you see fit!"

Done for, done for!!!

Now it was Kang Xi's turn to panic. She grabbed her father's arms, teary-eyed and aggrievedly said, "Daddy, they hit me, and now they're framing me... I... I can't live like this... sob sob..."

"Kang Xi, stop your act. Didn't you go to the film base today to see your boyfriend Wu Xun?"

Ouyang Jie shouted as if throwing caution to the wind, "And I've heard you don't just have Wu Xun as a boyfriend, right..."

"Ouyang Jie, what nonsense are you saying! 'Boyfriend' is such an ugly word; you should call them boyfriends!"

Song Bu chimed in with a mocking tone, "Old Kang hasn't noticed, eh? Your daughter is quite the heartbreaker!"

A heartbreaker? Kang Wei now felt like a huge fool!

What these people were saying was completely different from what his daughter had told him!!!
