Chapter 459: The Unwanted Fence Sitter

Wang Zaimin watched as the unruly Hu Lan made a scene, repeatedly calling someone a corrupt official and stating there was no way to live. Wang Zaimin's brow furrowed.

Watching the unruly woman making a scene, and with Vice Governor Wang on the side, Ye Ningqing's aunt's face turned extremely ugly.

Having spent years by Mu Jianjun's side and witnessing the ups and downs of officialdom, Ye Ningqing's aunt knew that this time, Mu Jianjun might not be able to clear his name even if he "jumped into the Yellow River."

"Auntie, it's colder sitting on the ground, I think you should stand up," Ding Fan said as he walked out from the crowd at that moment.

Ding Fan walked up and helped the seated Hu Lan to stand.

Seeing what Ding Fan did, Ye Ningqing was startled; she didn't know what he intended to do.

Hu Lan initially wanted to continue her tirade but didn't expect to be helped up; although she didn't want to stand, she felt almost bewitched, slightly out of control.
