Noon.
In a private room of a mid-range restaurant.
Dong Xuebing called the Sixth Bureau's Deputy Bureau Chief, Old Qian, out for lunch. During lunch, Old Qian was worried and asked Dong Xuebing if he had anything to do with the National Museum's burglary. < Snow Boat Landscape Painting > is in China? It is even displayed in the National Museum?! Although this is a good thing, it will affect China's reputation. This incident had blown up, and the Japanese government had scolded Dong Xuebing, causing international disputes. Now, the media is talking about this incident, and Old Qian is afraid he will be labeled as an accomplice. He is the one who booked Dong Xuebing's air tickets.
Dong Xuebing refused to admit and made up a story that he had gone to Japan to look for someone.
In the end, Old Qian believed him and did not say anything else.
After lunch, Dong Xuebing felt he had offended Old Qian. He took out three cartons of Chunghwa cigarettes from the trunk and gave them to Old Qian. But Old Qian refused to accept it. In the end, Dong Xuebing had to persuade him to give the cigarettes to him. Someone had given him these cigarettes during Lunar New Year, and he had been keeping them in his car. This is how relationships in China work. Reciprocity is important, and it does not matter how expensive the items are.
Before leaving, Old Qian told Dong Xuebing that Xu Yan had applied for leave and is sick.
Dong Xuebing is worried. Chief Xu is really good to him. She is sick, and Dong Xuebing must buy something to visit her.
… …
1 pm. The sun is shining brightly.
Dong Xuebing is standing in a small alley in the State Security's quarters. It is still the same old bungalow with a few twists and turns. It has been almost two years since he used BACK to buy Heart Reliever Pills and Asthma Medicine to save Minister Lui. Dong Xuebing had been in contact with Xu Yan over the phone and had not met her for a long time. Now, he misses her. It's his fault for not visiting his old leader during Lunar New Year. Dong Xuebing thought for a while.
The security guard stopped Dong Xuebing at the entrance. "Who are you?"
Dong Xuebing smiles. "I'm Dong Xuebing. Is Chief Xu Yan at home?"
"Wait a minute." The security guard went back to his room and made a call. After a while, he poked his head out. "Chief Xu wants you to enter. Building 1, room 202."
"Ok. Thank you." Dong Xuebing took his things and walked in.
Ding dong, ding dong. He rang Chief Xu's doorbell.
A moment later, the door was opened from the inside, revealing the figure of a beautiful woman. She was about forty years old, and her appearance was above average. However, she had the kind of face that was very pleasing to the eye, and the more one looked at it, the more charming it became. The beautiful woman was casually wearing a set of long-sleeved silk pajamas. Her hair was tied up high, and she had a button-up woolen sweater draped over her shoulders. However, her hands were not in the sleeves and were simply draped over her shoulders. Her seductive feet were wearing a pair of cotton slippers.
Dong Xuebing was stunned when he saw this person. "Chief … Xu?"
"What kind of tone is that?" Xu Yan chuckled and opened the security door. "Why are you still skeptical?"
Dong Xuebing blushed and did not tell the truth. "Err … you look pale, and I almost didn't recognize you. I heard you are sick? How is it? "
Xu Yan stepped aside to let Dong Xuebing enter. "I'm fine. I am just tired. Come in."
Actually, Dong Xuebing did not recognize Xu Yan at first glance. After all, they had not met for a long time. When he first came to the General Affairs Office, his impression of Xu Yan was an ordinary middle-aged woman. Her looks are average and not too ugly. But this time, Dong Xuebing noticed that Xu Yan is much prettier than before. Her looks had not changed, but Dong Xuebing could feel that she had changed.
Dong Xuebing knew it was not Xu Yan had changed. It was him who had changed his taste.
In the past, Dong Xuebing will only look at a person's face and looks. But as he interacted with more people, he no longer judge people by their looks. Now, when he looked at his old leader, he realized he had not noticed her in the past. Xu Yan is the kind of woman who becomes prettier the more he looks at her. She is very mature.
After the door closes, only the two of them are in the room.
"It's a bit messy at home. I did not know you were coming and did not tidy up." Xu Yan saw Dong Xuebing staring at her and laughed. "What's wrong? Have you met me before? "
Dong Xuebing cleared his throat. Both of them are no longer his superior and subordinate, and he is more casual with his words. "You seem to have changed. Hmmm … you are prettier."
Xu Yan laughed. "Not bad, kid. You even dare to talk glibly to your old leader?"
"I don't dare to. I am telling the truth." Dong Xuebing looks around. "Oh, are you alone?"
Xu Yan nodded and sat on the sofa with Dong Xuebing. "I had been divorced for many years, and I had been living alone. You should know this. Come, have some tea."
Dong Xuebing knew Xu Yan was divorced a long time ago and has a son who is studying in Junior High. But her son is with her ex-husband and will only stay at her place for two days every month. When Dong Xuebing thought of his old leader getting sick and having no one to take care of her, he felt sad. He is very grateful to Xu Yan and could not sit still. "Have you eaten?"
"I have no appetite and can't be bothered to cook. I had just taken my medicine."
"How can you do that?" Dong Xuebing rolled up his sleeves and stood up. "You don't need to worry about me. I will prepare something for you."
Xu Yan pulled Dong Xuebing back. "No need. You had just entered the house. Have a seat."
Dong Xuebing replied. "Old Leader, why are you so polite with me? Look at your pale face. How can you not eat? Go back to your room and rest for a while. The food will be ready soon. " Dong Xuebing could tell Xu Yan was sleeping under the blanket before he arrived. He helped her into the bedroom and asked her to lie down. Xu Yan's figure is more voluptuous, and after she lies on the bed, her chest is shaking. Dong Xuebing can see her breasts through her clothes. Huh?
This is killing me. How come Chief Xu is so alluring in the past?
Dong Xuebing quickly looks away. "Take a nap first. I will go and prepare dinner."
Xu Yan smiled. "I thought you only know how to create trouble outside. I didn't expect you to take good care of others."
Dong Xuebing covered Xu Yan with the blanket and replied. "You just found out about this. I don't have any other strengths, but I am good at taking care of others." Dong Xuebing is not bragging. His father had passed away, and his mother had returned to her hometown to work. He had been living alone in Beijing for a few years, and he is good at taking care of himself. Although Qu Yunxuan had helped him wash his clothes and socks in the future, he does not know how to do it. He is just lazy.
Dong Xuebing went to the kitchen and started cooking.
About ten minutes later, Dong Xuebing brought a bowl of hot porridge into the bedroom and passed it to Xu Yan. He also passed her a thermometer to check if she has a fever.
Xu Yan sighed. "Sigh … if only you are my son."
Dong Xuebing took the bowl of porridge and placed it on the table. He could hear the sadness in Chief Xu's voice and knew her son is no longer her son. "Then, just treat me as your son. If you are not feeling well in the future, don't be alone. Just call me. I might not be able to do other things, but I can still cook and wash the dishes." Dong Xuebing nodded and said.
Xu Yan smiled and said, "Thank you for saying that."
"Look at you. I should be the one thanking you. I was too immature in the past and had troubled you."
Xu Yan held the thermometer and opened the collar of her pajamas. From the shape of her breasts, Chief Xu should not be wearing a bra. Dong Xuebing quickly looks away. He estimated that Xu Yan had inserted the thermometer into the thermometer before turning back to the kitchen. He took out an envelope with a stack of money from his bag and returned to Xu Yan's room. He placed the envelope beside Xu Yan's bed. Xu Yan had used her own money to pay for Dong Xuebing's plane tickets to Japan and Yen. Dong Xuebing still has to return the money.
After a while, the thermometer is out. It's 37.9 degrees Celsius. It's close to a high fever.
Dong Xuebing knew Chief Xu is not feeling well and took out an antipyretic from her cupboard. "Go to bed. If you are not feeling well, you must go to the hospital."
Xu Yan waved her hand. "Help me up. It's only a slight fever."
Dong Xuebing gave her a stare. "No. I cannot listen to you. I will watch TV in the living room. If you are feeling unwell, just wake me up."
The medicine took effect, and Xu Yan could not open her eyes. "You came all the way here, and look at what happened."
"Isn't this what I should do? Are you still treating me as an outsider? "
After Xu Yan fell asleep, Dong Xuebing carefully closed the door and went to the living room.
Dong Xuebing looked at his watch. It's past 2 pm.
Dong Xuebing knew Chief Xu was in a bad mood recently. Her work was not going well. Over the phone, Xu Yan had told him that she was having a hard time at the State Security Branch. That should be the reason why she was not feeling well. Oh, Chief Xu had been busy recently, and Dong Xuebing wonders if Old Yang had any news about her transfer to Fen Zhou City's State Security. Dong Xuebing also wants to give Xu Yan a surprise and immediately called Luan Xiaoping.
Dong Xuebing can't rush Old Yang and can only ask his mother.
The line got through. "Mum, are you not in class?"
"We are having a break. What's wrong?"
"I just want to ask about the matter I told Uncle Yang about. Is there any news from the State Security Chief?"
"Oh, I had almost forgotten about it. Your Uncle Yang had told me this morning that the matter is settled."
Dong Xuebing's eyes brighten up. "What's the probability?"
Luan Xiaoping replied. "If Old Yang said so, then it should be settled. He had asked for your phone number this morning. Did he not call you? You should call him. Old Yang had helped you a lot, and you should thank him. "
"Ok! I understand! "
Done!
Dong Xuebing is in a good mood. Old Yang is really reliable!
