Chapter: 6407

He had previously exposed Zhang Ermao's behind-the-scenes manipulation, mainly to discipline Xiao Changkun and make him understand what it means to be hurt.

However, in his anticipation, he thought that Xiao Changkun would at least get a job that didn't involve any conflicts from the Painting Association, allowing him to have something to do. But he didn't expect the Painting Association to suddenly announce his resignation, which was completely unexpected.

So he told Korean Mei Qing, "Korean Auntie, my father-in-law didn't tell me about this, and if it wasn't for you calling, I wouldn't have known he had resigned already."

Korean Mei Qing sympathized, saying, "Given your father-in-law's character and his dedication to the Painting Association, regardless of the reason for his resignation, whether voluntary or involuntary, he will likely accept it initially. I don't dare ask him about it, nor do I dare advise him; just be aware of his situation and avoid any further problems."

Korean Mei Qing had already lost her feelings for Xiao Changkun but still cared about him as a longtime friend and comrade, so she called Ye Chen to express concern that Xiao Changkun might not be able to withstand such a big blow.

Ye Chen was puzzled - the association president, Pei, should not have kicked Xiao Changkun out of the Painting Association; it would be like cutting off their own legs. By leaving Xiao Changkun alone, they could still keep Hong Wufu and Tianxiang Hall connected, which was very important.

Moreover, Ye Chen didn't want Xiao Changkun to be swept away by the Painting Association; if he stayed at home, the family might be in chaos.

However, he didn't think too deeply about it and just told Korean Mei Qing, "Korean Auntie, don't worry, I'll find a way to subtly handle this; he's a person who loves his face, so if he doesn't tell me, I won't ask directly."

"This is also reasonable," Korean Mei Qing sighed and added, "But since he's abroad on vacation, he should be okay, and playing around will help ease his worries."

Saying that, she told Ye Chen, "Alright, Ye Chen, take care of this matter for me, Auntie has something else to consult with you too."

Ye Chen said, "Okay, Korean Auntie."

Korean Mei Qing said, "Your uncle Hua said he wants to be our marriage witness, so he's inviting us to dinner the day before the wedding, along with Paul and Jiaoxiu, but I don't know if it's convenient for you?"

"It's fine." Ye Chen agreed without hesitation, saying, "Just let Uncle Hua confirm the time and location, that'll be good."

"Alright." Korean Mei Qing smiled, saying, "Then Auntie won't bother you anymore."

"See you, Korean Auntie."

As soon as Ye Chen hung up with Korean Mei Qing, Hong Wu quickly called him back.

Ye Chen pressed the receiver to answer, and Hong Wu spoke in a slightly anxious tone, saying, "Ye Master, I have something to tell you... "

Ye Chen asked him, "What kind of thing got out of hand?"

Hong Wu said, "Oh, it's just about your father-in-law. You're not letting me handle him nicely, so he gave me a call saying he wants to book the pavilion at Tianxiang Hall, and I also refused him."

"Hong Wu said, 'Oh no, Master Ye! I didn't expect this to happen. That Uncle Pei long called me and offered your father-in-law a position as vice-chairman of the association, but I refused him.'"

Master Ye Chen suddenly realized, "That's why Uncle Pei long didn't save your father-in-law, it's because of my tone on the phone."

"Hong Wu was embarrassed and asked, 'Master Ye, I never thought that this would happen, so I'm calling you to ask if I should follow up with Uncle Pei long.'"

Master Ye Chen thought for a moment and said, "Don't bother, your father-in-law is probably at his lowest point right now. Let him suffer in darkness for a while, maybe he'll find his own way out of it when he returns from Dubai. As for me, I wish my mother-in-law would join some association too, so we could have peace at home if our father-in-law stays idle.'"

Hong Wu hurriedly asked, "Then should I do some groundwork? Uncle Pei long's call is still with me. If you think the timing is right, let me know and I'll give him a call right away."

The Book Painting Association may seem like just a group organization, but in reality, it's no different from other literary and artistic organizations in China. However, as a community organization grows in scale and level, its voice and social status also increase. JrNovels.com
