Xia Qing didn't say anything.
Ning Fan didn't say anything either.
The two of them talked on the phone in silence.
About half a minute passed.
"Have you informed Old Wen?"
Xia Qing finally spoke.
Ning Fan smiled faintly and said, "Yeah, we just talked on the phone."
"He agreed?"
"Uncle Wen didn't say when he would leave."
"So you didn't agree?"
"How is that possible? Chief Xia, you know how much Uncle Wen cares about Xiao Cai. Now that Xiao Cai is getting married, how could he not come?"
Ning Fan's tone was filled with laughter. "He didn't agree directly. I guess he still wants to be a little reserved! After all, he caught Xiao Cai and I at the headquarters. I bet he's still pretty upset about this!"
"So you called me..."
Xia Qing narrowed his eyes.
Ning Fan continued, "I was thinking of asking District Chief Xia to put in a few good words for him and try to persuade him! You know, the old man is too stubborn, and most people can't persuade him! But you're different. You... have been Uncle Wen's friend since childhood!"
Xia Qing couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
"What if I can't persuade you?"
"Impossible."
Ning Fan smiled and said, "In terms of personal relationship, you are Uncle Wen's best friend! In terms of status, you are the District Chief! So no matter what, as long as you give an order, Uncle Wen has to do it! Uncle Wen is my elder, and he can say a few insults when he's in a bad mood, but he wouldn't dare to do that with you!"
After a pause, Ning Fan added another sentence without waiting for Xia Qing to answer.
"If you ask him to come, he will come no matter what! Unless... you don't want him to attend your daughter's wedding."
Having said that, the two of them remained silent again in tacit understanding.
After a long while, Xia Qing whispered, "Then...what if I really don't want him to go?"
"No reason!"
Ning Fan answered quickly: "My daughter is getting married, and my father is there. What's there to stop?"
"The table-turning plan is about to begin."
Xia Qing reminded.
"These two things are not related!"
Ning Fan looked confused. "Haven't all of Uncle Wen's research results been handed over to you? He's just a researcher, what use can he be?"
Xia Qing smiled.
"What if Old Wen really doesn't want to go?"
On the other end of the phone, Ning Fan's smile gradually disappeared.
"That's a bit troublesome."
"Oh? What's the trouble?"
"Think about it, Xiao Cai only has Uncle Wen as her relative. If Uncle Wen isn't there, she definitely won't agree to the wedding."
"So what if we don't have a wedding?"
"I talked to General Ye before, and he said he really wanted to attend my wedding. Since it can't be done now, he can only stay in Yefengkou and wait until he can attend the wedding before leaving."
At this point, Ning Fan laughed again: "Qi Huan too."
On the other end of the phone, Xia Qing held the phone with a slight force.
Both she and Ning Fan knew the importance of Qi Huan in the table-turning plan.
Ning Fan was telling Xia Qing that if Wen Xiuyuan didn't come, Qi Huan would not be able to participate in the table-turning plan.
Without Qi Huan, what is the success rate of your plan to overturn the table?
By now, Ye Liang was no longer that important in the whole plan.
He has accomplished what he was supposed to accomplish.
Although there was no anger in the conversation between the two, the hidden meaning was already clear.
Ever since Ye Liang came to Ning Fan last time to discuss Qi Huan's issue, Ning Fan had roughly guessed how important Qi Huan was in the plan to overturn the table.
Ye Liang said that he didn't want Qi Huan to get involved in any battle before the plan to overturn the table was implemented.
In this case, Ning Fan is now telling Xia Qing that Qi Huan definitely cannot leave.
Even if he insisted on leaving, Ning Fan would do his best to keep him.
At that time, even if Ning Fan suffered losses, Qi Huan would not remain in perfect condition to deal with Su Wanjun.
Is this the result you want to see?
If not, let Wen Xiuyuan come over.
Anyway, he is not of much value to you now.
"I'll try to persuade him."
Xia Qing made a compromise.
In her mind, nothing is more important than the plan to overturn the table.
Ning Fan knew that it was useless to persuade Wen Xiuyuan.
As long as the pros and cons are made clear to Xia Qing, Wen Xiuyuan will naturally appear at Yefengkou.
Because even if Xia Qing tied Wen Xiuyuan up, he would tie him up and send him over.
"Then I'll have to trouble Chief Xia. I'm really sorry to have to trouble you with such a trivial matter as my marriage."
Ning Fan expressed his gratitude sincerely.
"You are a hero in District F. Your marriage is no small matter."
Xia Qing regained his composure again.
Just when she thought Ning Fan had achieved his goal...
"By the way, District Chief Xia, you promised to lend me a Thousand Souls-level expert to take charge. You haven't forgotten about this, have you?"
"Something went wrong with this matter."
Xia Qing was patient.
If she could still restrain Ning Fan a few months ago, now she has almost lost control over Ning Fan.
Because the plan to flip the table is too close.
It was impossible for her to find someone to replace Ning Fan.
Moreover, through this period of "nourishment", the power in Ning Fan's hands can no longer be underestimated.
From any perspective, she didn't want anything to go wrong with Ning Fan.
