Wei Song used his connections to communicate with the military region, and in the end, Wei Lan resigned without being publicly criticized.
This was almost the best solution. He had Liu Cheng return the things Wei Lan had received and personally called those people to explain.
Wei Hui looked at his father, who had developed many wrinkles in just two days, and brought him a cup of tea.
"Although no one knows about it now, this matter can't be kept secret forever."
Even though the Wei family tried to suppress the whole matter, the military region had already made another person involved give a public apology.
With a little inquiry, one can easily find out why Wei Lan resigned.
Soon, these messages will reach us.
Wei Song sighed, "Let your aunt stay at home quietly for a few months. Once things have calmed down, I'll find a way to arrange for her to be transferred to another city."
No matter how disappointed he was in her, she was still his younger sister whom he had cherished and pampered for so many years, and Wei Song still had to make plans for her.
Wei Hui remained noncommittal, perhaps knowing that his aunt was able to act so recklessly because she knew her family would support her.
In his view, this incident was an opportunity for her to learn a lesson, but her father and grandfather were obviously reluctant to let their aunt suffer, and they still planned out her future path.
For my aunt, she lost her position as deputy director of a large state-owned factory, but she was still able to find a good job after staying at home for several months.
If she makes such a big mistake and goes unpunished, she'll be eager to try even bigger mistakes next time.
Wei Hui didn't believe they hadn't discovered his aunt's problems all these years. His aunt was extravagant; the food and supplies for her two children, as well as her own lavish attire, were certainly beyond what she and her uncle could afford on their salaries.
Adding to the rumors circulating in recent years, even his mother had privately inquired about him, fearing that something might happen to his aunt and implicate everyone.
He didn't believe that his usually perceptive father and grandfather hadn't noticed anything amiss, but perhaps they were too afraid to believe it, or unwilling to believe it, and still treated her as their previous sister and daughter.
This time her family can cover for her, but what about next time?
No, it won't.
The father and son parted on bad terms, and Wei Song finally sat in the study, holding a cup of tea with a furrowed brow.
Hopefully, she can learn from this experience.

"Get out! Get out!"
Wei Lan stayed at home for two days, but still couldn't accept reality.
She has kept her door tightly shut for the past two days, hiding at home and afraid to go out, lest she see the strange looks from other people.
The two children were frightened by her and almost cried in the living room. Liu Cheng quickly told them to go back to their room to play with their toys.
"It's okay, Mom is just in a bad mood, she'll be fine in a little while."
He frowned as he opened the study door, and as soon as Wei Lan saw him, she pointed at his nose and told him to get out.
"It's all your fault, Liu Cheng! It's all your fault!"
He betrayed his own people and helped outsiders. If he hadn't switched those exam papers, she would have succeeded long ago. Why would she be hiding at home, afraid to go out?
Now, who knows how those people outside are laughing at her? How can she have the face to go out and face those people?
Wei Lan is almost going crazy. She is currently unemployed and can only stay at home.
Those who have tasted power find it hard to accept losing it. Wei Lan gritted her teeth; she was so ashamed that she dared not go out, but the culprit remained so calm.
Enraged, she grabbed a cup from the table and threw it at Liu Cheng. Liu Cheng didn't dodge; he covered his injured forehead and looked at Wei Lan with a deep gaze.
"Don't you still think you're wrong?"
