After entering the door, seeing the smoke in the living room, Wang Baoguo sat on the sofa with his brows locked. Wang Yewei and her mother felt it was too abnormal and secretly said "it's going to be bad"!

"Lu Fan, sit down, Xiaowei, pour water." After finishing, Wang Yewei's mother opened the window and complained to her husband: "Look at what you have smoked the house into? Can't people come back?"

Wang Baoguo ignored it, looked at Lu Fan with a complex expression, and asked: "You are Lu Fan?"

"Uncle, I am Lu Fan."

"I have some understanding of your situation, and you have been dating my daughter for a while. I think some things have to be said clearly in person. I am straight, I hope you don't mind."

"Please speak, I am all ears."

Wang Baoguo extinguished the cigarette butt, looked at his daughter, and said slowly: "Although our family is not a big rich family, Xiaowei has not suffered any bitterness since she was a child, and I have tried my best to give her the best. Now that it is time to talk about marriage, I naturally want her to be happy for a lifetime.

Now the situation has changed, Xiaowei is about to be transferred to the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau to work..."

Wang Yewei immediately interrupted: "Dad, how do I not know? I don't go, I am very happy working in Ningyang!"

Wang Baoguo scolded: "Water flows to the low place, people go to the high place. Do you think it is so easy to transfer to the city? Do you want to stay in Ningyang for a lifetime? Or stay in Baishu Bay for a lifetime?"

Then, he said to Lu Fan: "I am not an unreasonable person, but marriage is a big event in life, paying attention to the right family, so that there can be common values and outlook on life. If you want to marry my daughter, you must meet three conditions."

"Uncle, you say, no matter what conditions, I will do my best to achieve them."

"Good, first, you must have a house in the city, my daughter can't go to rent a house; second, you must have a car, the grade doesn't need to be high, but it can't be too low, 200,000 is enough; third, Xiaowei's work is in the city, of course, living in two places is not good, your work must also be in the city." Wang Baoguo naturally knew that with Lu Fan's conditions, these three points could not be achieved at all.

"Why make things difficult for Lu Fan?" Wang Yewei said angrily: "We will live our lives, don't worry about it! Dad, what are your intentions? Do you have to break us up?"

Mom also came over and said: "Wang Baoguo, it's too much, don't make things difficult for the children!"

Wang Baoguo roared: "Shut up! Lu Fan, you are a man, you must have a man's responsibility. Can you do it, give me a quick word, my daughter is not something that any cat or dog can marry!"

The taste of being looked down upon is very uncomfortable, but for the sake of their happiness, Lu Fan said unusually firmly: "Uncle, I can understand your painstaking efforts, after all, no one wants their children to suffer. I will try my best to buy a house and a car, but I am powerless about the work for the time being, but I promise that I will work hard and strive to make progress as soon as possible."

"What about money? You don't want Xiaowei to pay off the loan with you, right? What's the difference between that and not buying?"

For the "progress" Lu Fan said, Wang Baoguo was even more disdainful. Offending the Standing Committee Deputy Mayor and still wanting to make progress? That's a daydream. No matter what, you can't push your daughter into the fire pit!

"Lu Fan, don't say I'm not close to human feelings. I'll give you a month to complete my three requirements. If you do it, I bless you. If you can't do it, I hope you have self-knowledge! Don't see each other this month."

Wang Yewei was very emotional, her eyes filled with tears, crying and questioning her father who had been obedient to her since she was a child: "Dad, don't you love me anymore? I am very happy with Lu Fan, why do you want to destroy my happiness? Lu Fan is very motivated, what you said will be there sooner or later, why do you have to force him? Are you still my dad? Mom, you quickly say something, don't make things difficult for Lu Fan!"

"Wang Baoguo, are you crazy? As long as Weiwei is happy, are those things so important? When I married you, what did you have? You can't forget your roots as a person!" Mom stood firmly on her daughter's side.

Wang Baoguo said unusually firmly: "Within a month, if you can't do those three requirements, don't step into my door! Lu Fan, you go first, be a man and show your backbone!"

Lu Fan clenched his fists, desperately controlling the tears that were about to overflow, retaining the last trace of dignity, slowly got up and said: "Uncle, I can't do it within a month! Auntie, sorry to bother you! Xiaowei, I'm leaving!"

"Lu Fan, I'll go with you!" Wang Yewei wiped her tears and was about to take her bag.

Wang Baoguo pulled his daughter into the bedroom, regardless of the heartbreaking crying.

"Xiao Fan, you go first, sorry to make you suffer today!"

"Auntie, please take care of Xiaowei, no matter what, I will not give up!"

After going out, Lu Fan felt that the whole world was gray. He didn't expect to come with high spirits, but what he harvested was humiliation, disappointment, and sadness!

Downstairs, Lu Fan stood for a long time, until dark, as if he could still hear Wang Yewei's heartbreaking crying.

Upstairs, the couple was arguing endlessly. In desperation, Wang Baoguo could only tell the truth, called his wife and daughter together and said: "Xiaowei, don't blame Dad for being ruthless, I do this for your own good, for the sake of this family."

Looking at his daughter's expression of breaking off the father-daughter relationship, Wang Baoguo continued: "Yesterday, Mayor Le found me and took the initiative to help Xiaowei transfer her work, the requirement is that we should not have any involvement with Lu Fan."

Wang Yewei was not satisfied, crying and saying: "Manage heaven and earth and still want to manage my love? Does this mayor have a problem? I don't want to transfer work, I don't care! Dad, I beg you, don't agree to that dog official, okay?"

"Alas, I am about to work in the county, serving as Standing Committee Deputy County Head, Mayor Le helped a lot!"

"Dad, for your own future, you want to sell your daughter's happiness?"

His wife also said: "Baoguo, why don't you go to Ganshui County? Aren't you doing well now? I think you are too greedy!"

"You don't know, Mayor Le's attitude is very firm, if I don't listen to the greeting, let alone go to Ganshui, even the current position can't be kept. Han Xuyang, you should know, right? He is about to go to prison!"

Now the mother and daughter were not calm. They didn't expect the situation to be so serious, and they couldn't help but start scolding and cursing Mayor Le Xueren.

Wang Baoguo continued: "I dare to conclude that Mayor Le and Lu Fan have an unsolvable grudge. A Standing Committee Deputy Mayor, fully suppressing a small cadre, what do you say, can Lu Fan have a way to live? Is it worrying for Xiaowei to marry him for a lifetime? What if there is an accident one day, what should my daughter do?

Xiaowei, if we insist on violating the Mayor's wishes, it will increase the Mayor's hatred for Lu Fan, and the consequences can be imagined. Even for Lu Fan, you can't associate with him anymore, that is harming him. It's not that Dad is ruthless, it's that he is forced to be helpless!"

Wang Yewei said hatefully: "Can officials do whatever they want? Can they bully the people? Is there no one to manage him? I'm not convinced, I want to report him!"

Wang Baoguo hurriedly said: "What evidence do you have? The official word has two mouths, everything has reason, you must not bring disaster to the family!"

"Then what should I do? I don't want to break up with Lu Fan!"

Wang Baoguo sighed and said: "Harm him? Or for his own good? Consider it yourself! Dad has not been easy all his life, I hope you also consider this family! Life is not satisfactory in eight or nine out of ten, this is life. If you insist on being with Lu Fan, I can only support you, I will submit my resignation report tomorrow, the road must be chosen by yourself, walk by yourself, there is one thing you must remember, Dad will never harm his daughter!"

After speaking, Wang Baoguo slowly got up, sighed and entered the study, looking helpless.

The mother and daughter couldn't fight the old fox who had been in the officialdom for many years. Wang Yewei lay in her mother's arms and cried loudly.

"Xiaowei, your dad is not a person who dislikes the poor and loves the rich, otherwise he wouldn't have agreed to you and Lu Fan dating at the beginning. He also has difficulties! I think your dad makes sense. The Mayor is determined to make things difficult for a small commoner, we are really powerless. Life is long, Mom doesn't want you to worry all day, you should break up, for Lu Fan's good, for your good, for the sake of this family! Dad has worked hard for half his life, finally there is an opportunity, he is not easy either! Everyone wants to live according to their temperament, but reality really doesn't allow it."

Wang Yewei cried bitterly.

After Lu Fan got in the car, he couldn't hold it in for a moment, tears flowed out involuntarily, all the grievances in his heart surged up, like a slap, making him speechless.

After Wang Baoguo completed the task, he went to Mayor Le's office the next day to report, indicating that he would never let his daughter associate with messy people again.

After Lu Fan returned to the unit, it was as if all his spirit had been drained.
