Chapter 507 – Meeting Aunt Xuan!
Noon.
It’s summertime, and it is hotter and drier.
Dong Xuebing parked his Cayanne at the County’s People Hospital and ran into the lobby. He is famous in Yan Tai County and is a frequent visitor of this hospital. Many doctors, nurses, and visitors recognized him. Not everyone in the County heard of his return, and many people were shocked.
“Ah! That’s…”
“Dong… Chief Dong?”
“Didn’t the news say he died in the air crash?”
“That’s right. I saw the news. What is going on?”
“What? That is the G.o.d of Plague?”
“d.a.m.n! Even an air crash cannot kill him.”
Everyone heard about Dong Xuebing’s deeds in the past and was speechless to see him.
Dong Xuebing survived after being buried in a landslide.
He survived after being handcuffed and held hostage by nine escaped convicts.
He survived a shootout with more than a dozen gunmen when recovering the stolen relics from the museum.
He also survived and defused a timebomb strapped to Mayor Xie.
Now, the plane he was on crashed and exploded. More than 200 pa.s.sengers were killed, but he is still alive and kicking! d.a.m.n! Is he Superman? Maybe he can only be killed when an atomic bomb landed on his head. His life is tougher than a c.o.c.kroach! How is he still considered a Government Staff? Even Saint Seiya will die after going through all these incidents!
Obstetrics and Gynecology ward.
A nurse entered the ward.
Qu Yunxuan is looking out of the window in a daze.
“Your lunch is here.”
“…. Ok.”
“I will leave it on the table.”
“…. Ok.”
“Are you going to eat it?”
“Yes.”
The nurse sighed as she looks at the pretty patient and thought she is suffering from prenatal depression. “Why is your breakfast still here? You must eat something. We have gotten your medical report. You don’t have any major health issues, but you still need to eat. You are six months pregnant, and you need lots of nutrients for your child.”
Qu Yunxuan shook her head emotionlessly.
The nurse continued. “Are you feeling unwell? Do you want me to feed you?”
“Thank you. I don’t have any appet.i.te.”
“Sigh…” The nurse sighed.
Suddenly, the door opened, and Dong Xuebing enters with a smile. “Thank you, nurse. I will feed her.”
Qu Yunxuan was stunned when she heard this voice and turned around immediately.
The nurse looks at Dong Xuebing. “Are you her family member?” She doesn’t know Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing nodded. “Yes.”
“What are you all doing?” The nurse glared at Dong Xuebing. “The patient had been hospitalized for a few days, and why did you wait until now to visit her? You all must accompany her more often and chat with her. This will help with her recovery. She might lose her child if this carries on.”
Dong Xuebing smiled apologetically. “Sorry. I will visit her every day from now.”
The nurse pushed the lunch box into Dong Xuebing’s hands and left the ward.
Dong Xuebing smiled and sat on the bed. He blew a spoonful of porridge to cool it and moved it nearer to Qu Yunxuan’s mouth. “Have some.”
Qu Yunxuan was still looking at Dong Xuebing in a daze.
Dong Xuebing moved the spoon closer. “Open your mouth….”
Qu Yunxuan swallowed the porridge, and her tears rolled down her cheeks.
“Am I dreaming?”
“No. I am back.”
“You are…” Qu Yunxuan cried. “I thought you are killed in that air crash.”
“The plane crashed, but I managed to escape. Haha… you should know how strong I am. How can an air crash kill me? Stop crying. This is nothing serious.” Dong Xuebing put down the lunchbox and hugged Qu Yunxuan. He kissed her forehead. “You all are making a fuss out of nothing. Even bullets and bombs cannot kill me, let alone an air crash. I will find ways to escape. Stop crying.”
Qu Yunxuan hugged Dong Xuebing around his head and pressed it against her chest. She cried and kissed his head. “You b.a.s.t.a.r.d! I will be scared to death by you sooner or later! Do you know I almost gave up living because of you?!”
Dong Xuebing smiled sweetly. “Sorry.”
“You brat!”
“Haha… if you are still angry, just pinch me… ah… you pinched me!”
“You are the one who asked me to pinch you!”
“But you can do it softly. It’s painful!”
Qu Yunxuan burst out laughing and pinched Dong Xuebing again. “You brat! Don’t ever scare me like this again!”
“Alright. I will not dare to do this again.” Dong Xuebing laughed. “I was unlucky this time. The engine caught fire, and the plane exploded. I managed to return after much difficulty and even attended my funeral.”
“Stop talking nonsense! Oh!” Qu Yunxuan quickly pulled up Dong Xuebing’s s.h.i.+rt. “Show me. Where are you hurt?”
“I am not injured.”
“Show me!”
“Ah… See for yourself! I am fine!”
Qu Yunxuan checked Dong Xuebing’s body and sighed in relief. She leans back on the bed and suddenly remembered something. She glared at him and pinched his cheek. “How dare you ask me to abort our child and leave by yourself?! How can you say such things?! You even say you did not love me at all and ask me to look for someone else?!”
Dong Xuebing cleared his throat. “Err… I was talking nonsense at that time.”
“I find you are serious.”
“Aunt Xuan, stop talking about these. You should know my feelings for you. I was forced to say those things as I don’t want you to bring up our child alone. Now, I’m back, and I will take care of you. Don’t even think of leaving me.” Dong Xuebing stroked Qu Yunxuan’s bulging tummy. “Oh, it’s so big now. Let me listen to it. Does he know how to kick?”
Qu Yunxuan laughed. “He knows it a long time ago.”
“Baby… let Daddy feel your kick.”
Aunt Xuan’s tummy moved.
Dong Xuebing laughed. “Ah… he is kicking me! Hahaha….”
“You ah…” Qu Yunxuan knocked Dong Xuebing’s head. “Look at your foolish look. Can you behave more like an adult?”
“Let me listen to the baby again.”
“The baby is sleeping! Stop fooling around before I beat you up!”
After playing around for a while, Dong Xuebing continued to feed Qu Yunxuan. She wanted to eat herself, but Dong Xuebing insisted on feeding her. After eating for a few minutes, she started crying again.
“Why are you crying again?”
“I’m not crying.”
“Why are there tears if you are not crying?”
“Xiao Bing, am I dreaming?”
“You are not dreaming.” Dong Xuebing held Qu Yunxuan’s hand tightly. “Haha… I pinch you and see if it hurts.”
“How dare you!”
Dong Xuebing laughed. “Alright, let’s not talk about these. What happened when I was not around these few days?”
“You still dare to mention it?” Qu Yunxuan replied angrily. “Huilan and I know something is happening after your call, and we quickly called others to check on your flight. We were informed that your flight had crashed, and your mother fainted when she learned about it. We rushed her to the hospital, and I don’t even remember how I ended up here. Sigh… I don’t want to talk about this anymore.”
“Huh? Is my Mum ok?”
“She is fine and had fainted from her high blood pressure.”
“What about you?”
“I am also fine.” Qu Yunxuan patted Dong Xuebing’s hand. “I have recovered after seeing you. Stop making us worry.”
“This is an accident.”
Qu Yunxuan brushed Dong Xuebing’s hair lightly. “Luckily, nothing happened to you this time. But I don’t want to be scared again. I had thought about it. I will return to Beijing tomorrow after discharge and will sell away the Auction Company. A friend had approached me intending to take over our company. After this incident, I don’t want to manage the company anymore.”
Dong Xuebing paused for a second. “You want to sell the company? Then what are you going to do?”
They had made enough money, and the company doesn’t matter. Dong Xuebing will support Aunt Xuan’s decision.
Qu Yunxuan laughed. “I am thinking of entering the Government Service to monitor you in Hebei province! I shall see how are you going to hide from me or go missing.”
“Huh? Are you going to take the civil servant exams?”
“I am thinking of entering a TV station. I should have no problems taking on the role of a news editor or work in their business department. Don’t forget I had worked in a news agency before.”
“Oh… you were formerly from the business department. But… can you cope?”
“I don’t know. Furthermore, I don’t want our baby to meet his father once every few months.”
Dong Xuebing knows Aunt Xuan wants to see him more frequently, and that’s why she wants to move to Hebei to develop her career. “Alright. Just go ahead. I can get someone to help to get you in.”
