Afternoon.
5 am.
After settling the Qing 'e Mountain incident, Dong Xuebing did not return home to change his clothes. He returned to the County's Party Committee Quarters in his wet clothes. If he is a low-ranking leader, he can take a few days off. But now, he is the top leader of Jiaolin County, and he cannot take a few days off. The incident on Qing' e Mountain is serious and involves the lives of more than a hundred people. But Jiaolin County has a lot of things to deal with in a day. The Mayor, Zhang Dongfang, is hospitalized. If Dong Xuebing is not around, it will be a mess. Dong Xuebing must return to the County's Party Committee Quarters to settle other matters.
Construction funds.
Reward amount.
Some personnel rearrangements.
Dong Xuebing returned to his office and changed into a set of clothes that Su Yan gave him. After that, he starts to settle the rest of his work.
Five minutes …
Ten minutes …
Dong Xuebing finally finished all his work.
Dong Xuebing took a deep breath and looked at his watch. After informing Su Yan, he took his bag and prepared to get off work. He had been busy the whole day, and he was exhausted.
In the corridor.
The County's Party Committee Office Director Meng Hanbing walked over. "Secretary."
"Director Meng, you are still working?" Dong Xuebing looked at her.
Meng Hanmei replied. "I will be leaving soon. I will go back after finishing these documents."
Dong Xuebing nodded. "Oh, I have something to discuss with you. Can you inform the County's Party Committee members tonight? Let's have dinner together." Although Dong Xuebing did not mention who he was calling, it was clear what he meant. Meng Hanmei must be calling those County's Party Committee members who had sided with Dong Xuebing today. Since Meng Hanmei had expressed her intentions, Dong Xuebing must give her some feedback.
Meng Hanmei nodded. "Ok. I understand."
Dong Xuebing thought for a while. "How about the meeting at my house?"
His house is a duplex and is spacious enough to accommodate ten people.
"Ok." Meng Hanmei looked at Dong Xuebing. "Are you alright? If not, tomorrow … "
"I'm fine. Let's do it today. 7.30 pm." Dong Xuebing laughed. "I was drenched in the rain, and I will be fine after a shower." He was a person who did not like to procrastinate. If he had something to do, he would do it immediately. He was not used to waiting until the next day. After saying that, Dong Xuebing smoothed his hair. He felt his hair is getting long. "Is there any place near our quarters for haircuts? It doesn't have to be too good. Any random one will do. It's a bit long. " As the Party's Party Secretary, he must maintain his image. Dong Xuebing also takes note of this.
Meng Hanmei blinked her eyes and suddenly smiled. "You want to go home first? I'll find it for you. "
"Alright. You can cut it tomorrow. There's no hurry." Dong Xuebing said and returned home.
…
Just before six o'clock.
Dong Xuebing carried a bunch of vegetables and meat home and threw them into the fridge before taking a hot shower. Dong Xuebing closed his eyes. He had worked hard all day, and this is the best moment. Also, when he thought about his results today, he felt his efforts were not in vain.
He finished his shower.
Dong Xuebing put on his pajamas and walked out of the bathroom. He had no intention to change out of his pajamas. Although his pajamas are not formal, when the County's Party Committee members arrive later, they will feel that Dong Xuebing did not treat them as outsiders. That's why he dressed casually.
Ding Dong.
Ding Dong.
The doorbell rang.
Dong Xuebing was stunned. He had wanted to go to the kitchen to wash vegetables and did not expect someone to arrive so soon. Sister Meng had informed him that it is 7.30 pm. So, Dong Xuebing opened the door and saw Meng Hanmei standing outside. Although she is wearing a raincoat today, she had taken a shower. She is wearing a pair of women's trousers and a thick white sweater. She must have returned home. But Dong Xuebing did not know what the package in her hands is. It looks heavy. What is it? Dong Xuebing is not sure what it is.
"Chief Meng?"
"Secretary, can I come in first?"
"Of course. Please come in. Why are you here so early? I still have not washed the vegetables. "
"You can't be the one washing the vegetables. We women can do it. Haha … I am here for something else. Didn't you say you want to get a haircut?"
"That's right. Why?"
"Let me cut it for you."
"Ah? You know how to cut hair? "
"Are you looking down on me? Hehe, to tell you the truth, my grandfather's generation used to cut hair. It's an old skill. Later, my grandfather passed it on to me. After I learned it, my parents' hair was cut by me. If you don't mind, why don't you try my skill? But I don't know how to cut hair that is too fashionable. It's not that I don't know how to cut hair, and I can cut any hair. But I do not have the taste and aesthetics. That's why I don't know if it is suitable for you. That's why I don't want to embarrass myself. "
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Ok. Thank you, Sister Meng. I don't need to have a fashionable hairstyle. I just want a normal hairstyle. "Dong Xuebing is the County's Party Secretary, and why does he need to be fashionable? He is asking to be scolded. In China, there is a need for mediocrity, and it's the same in the government.
Meng Hanmei laughed and took out her tools. "Let's go to the toilet. Don't mess up my hair."
"Ok." Dong Xuebing moved a chair to the toilet.
Meng Hanmei stood behind Dong Xuebing and took out a piece of cloth to cover Dong Xuebing's hair. She used a comb to comb Dong Xuebing's hair, looked at the mirror, and nodded. After that, she started cutting Dong Xuebing's hair with the electric clipper. Her movements are very smooth and precise. Every cut is clean and precise. Once an expert made a move, one would know whether or not he was skilled. Some things were like this. Actually, it didn't matter how good you were, but you had to be confident when you made a move. In this way, even if your skills weren't up to standard, others would feel assured when they saw it.
But Meng Hanmei's skills are up to standard.
Dong Xuebing closed his eyes and felt comfortable. He almost fell asleep, and his head leaned back. This is his body's natural reaction to being sleepy. As he leaned against the back of his head, he felt a soft sensation. His entire head seemed to have sunk into a patch of softness, and it was even fragrant.
Dong Xuebing woke up. "Huh?"
He looked at the mirror and realized he was leaning on Meng Hanmei's chest.
Meng Hanmei did not mind and continued to push Dong Xuebing's hair. "Don't move."
