Around seven o 'clock.
Su Yan's neighborhood.
Dong Xuebing found the address given to him by Meng Hanmei and confirmed the number. He pressed the doorbell.
Ding dong.
Ding dong.
"I'm coming, I'm coming."
The person who opened the door was Su Yan's mother.
Dong Xuebing looked at her and greeted. "Hello, Aunty."
Mama Su looked at him suspiciously. "Who are you looking for?"
Dong Xuebing laughed. "I'm looking for Su Yan. We are from the same unit."
"You're Little Yan's colleague?" Mother Su blinked. "Why haven't I seen you before?"
Dong Xuebing can't do anything to Su Yu's mother. "I had just moved here a few days ago, and I was passing by your place. I wanted to visit you two. Oh, I did not have time to buy anything and only bought some seasonal fruits from downstairs." Dong Xuebing waved the plastic bag in his hand.
Since he said so, Mama Su could only respond with an "oh". After thinking about it, she couldn't refuse, so she opened the door and let him in. "Come in."
"Ok. Do I need to change my shoes?"
"Go ahead and change. The slippers are all in the shoe cabinet. You can wear them however you like," Mother Su said.
Dong Xuebing changed his shoes and placed the fruits at the entrance. "Su Yan is not around?"
Mother Su said, "He's taking a shower. He should be out soon. Take a seat. Auntie won't entertain you."
Su Xuebing's father, who was in the living room, also turned to look at Su Xuebing's mother.
When Mother Su walked over, she lowered her voice and said, "He said he's Little Yan's colleague. I think he's here to pull some strings. He's even holding some fruits. I don't want to stop him from entering." After Su Yan's mother knew her son was promoted to be the County's Party Secretary, she saw Dong Xuebing coming to her house with the gifts. She had never met Dong Xuebing before and had never heard Su Yan mention him. She does not have a good impression of Dong Xuebing. Oh, when my Xiao Yan is a good-for-nothing, you didn't come to visit me. But when Xiao Yan is about to be promoted to the County's Party Secretary, you came to visit me? Su Qingsang's mother felt Dong Xuebing is too snobbish and did not welcome him.
Dong Xuebing doesn't know what Su Meimei's mother is thinking. He had come here coincidentally, and he is only here for a stroll.
Papa Su was still polite. "What would you like to drink?"
Dong Xuebing laughed. "No need. Water will do."
Auntie Su thought to herself, "You're really not polite." After hearing that, she could only pour him a glass of water.
"Thank you, Aunty." Dong Xuebing took a few sips and asked. "How are you two?"
Dong Xuebing did not think there's anything wrong with what he said, but Su Yu's mother felt Dong Xuebing was being too polite and replied. "I'm fine."
Father Su asked, "Have you eaten?"
"I had eaten at home." Dong Xuebing laughed.
Papa Su said, "There's food too. If you haven't eaten yet, you can eat here."
Dong Xuebing took out a pack of cigarettes. "No need. I had just eaten. Do you want to smoke?"
Before Papa Su said anything, Mother Su interrupted. "I am allergic to this smell, and we can't smoke at home."
Father Su was speechless when he saw that Mother Su was acting like the mother of the First Secretary. However, he understood his wife's feelings. After so many years, their son had always been stuck between life and death. He didn't even have a girlfriend. Now that he had a change of fortune, as a mother, she was naturally very emotional. It was inevitable that her emotions would bring out some things. She was a woman, so it was inevitable that she would be more emotional.
Dong Xuebing blinked. "I'm sorry, Auntie." Allergies? Dong Xuebing kept the cigarettes and did not show any signs of displeasure.
Papa Su asked. "Do you want some fruits?"
Dong Xuebing replied. "No, thank you."
Dong Xuebing's temperament … hmmm … it's not really temperament. He is an ordinary person, and no one will notice him standing in a crowd. But after being a leader for so many years, Dong Xuebing's character is more mature. When he sits down, he will be more reserved, or it should be said that he has a bit of pride in his bones. Dong Xuebing will be like this no matter where he is.
But Dong Xuebing's mother sensed this and dislikes him even more. You are here to ask for my son's help. What's with your attitude? Why didn't he keep a low profile and be polite? Why did he just sit there so casually? You are not treating yourself as an outsider.
Papa Su is a good-natured person, and he felt that Dong Xuebing is a guest at home. That's why he chatted with Dong Xuebing, and Dong Xuebing also chatted casually with Papa Su.
Papa Su's mother is the opposite. She does not want to talk to Dong Xuebing. Firstly, she does not like Dong Xuebing, and secondly, she does not know why Dong Xuebing is looking for her son. What if Dong Xuebing wants to make things difficult for her son?
At this time, the shower stopped.
"Mum!" Su Yan called out from inside.
"Eh? Are you done showering?" Papa Su's mother walked over.
"Almost done. Did someone say something? Who is here? "Su Yan could not hear clearly from the bathroom.
"It's one of your colleagues. He is here to visit." Papa Su's mother glanced at Dong Xuebing and said towards the bathroom.
"Colleague?" Su Yan did not ask much as he also does not know who it is. "Oh. Can you get me a set of clean clothes?" If there are only his parents at home, Su Yan does not mind what he wears. But there are guests, and he cannot go out in his long johns.
"Ok." Papa Su's mother went to get it and entered the bathroom. "Here."
Su Yan took the clothes and put them on. He asked softly, "Who is it?"
Papa Su's mother pouted. "I don't know who he is. It's his first time here, and I have never seen him before. He is even holding fruits. He must know that you are the First Secretary and is here to ask you for help."
Su Yan nodded. "Oh."
Papa Su's mother reminded him. "Don't promise him everything. You should reject him. That kid looks arrogant and does not treat himself as an outsider. I don't like him."
Su Yan replied. "Let me see who it is first. Don't worry, mum. I know what to do."
Papa Su's mother sighed. "I have never seen anyone so friendly to you before. Now that you are promoted, everyone is here. This is too snobbish."
"Lower your voice. I will go out and take a look." Su Yan had also put on his clothes. He opened the bathroom door and walked out to take a look. He was still wondering which colleague his mother was talking about. But when he took a look, Su Yan almost fell to the ground!
"Dong … Secretary Dong?!" Su Yan was stunned.
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Finished showering?"
