Chapter 804: Sister Luo is naughty again
Afternoon.
City Party Committee Building.
The Commission for Discipline Inspection, Dong Xuebing’s office.
Dong Xuebing was exhausted when he returned to his office. He slapped his forehead and drank a gla.s.s of warm water.
It was afternoon, and no one drank during the welcome lunch. Dong Xuebing was exhausted from talking and observing all the leaders and colleagues. He tried to find out about their relations.h.i.+ps by observing them but failed. He could only remember their names in the end. The City’s level was different from the County or District. Just the Commission for Discipline Inspection department alone had almost twenty subdepartments. The Leaders had double roles, making it harder to remember their positions.
Knock… knock….
Dong Xuebing put down his empty gla.s.s and sat up. “Come in.”
The door opened, and a beautiful middle-aged woman entered. It’s Luo Haiting.
Luo Haiting smiled brightly when she saw Dong Xuebing. “Director Dong, I’m here to report my work progress.”
Dong Xuebing stood up with a smile. “Come over here.”
Luo Haiting looked out of the door before closing it.
“I am the First Inspection Office’s Deputy Director now. I am your subordinate again. Haha….” Luo Haiting walked over and shook Dong Xuebing’s hand.
Dong Xuebing had not met Luo Haiting for more than six months and missed her. “This is fate.”
Luo Haiting shook her head and looked at Dong Xuebing gratefully. “I was still suspended from my duties last week, and my transfer order was issued after I called you. I know you helped me get this transfer. I am grateful to you. Thank you. I thought it was the end for me, and I might be dismissed or transferred to other places. But that did not happen. I was promoted to Section Chief and transferred to the City’s First Inspection Office as the Deputy Director. I don’t know how to repay you.”
“This is nothing, and you should stop thinking about it.”
“It might be nothing to you, but it is significant to me.”
Dong Xuebing knew the Investment Promotion Agency could not be compared to the City’s Commission for Discipline Inspection. Even if Luo Haiting had gotten the same level transfer, it was considered a promotion. Furthermore, she was promoted from a Deputy Section Chief to Section Chief.
Dong Xuebing smiled. “Sister Luo, there’s no need to say these things. I still need your help with my work in the future.”
“Of course. I will do whatever you want with me.”
Dong Xuebing was speechless when he heard this. Luo Haiting’s reply seemed to have double meanings.
Luo Haiting looked sincere and seemed to be tearing up.
Luo Haiting let go of her hand after saying all these. But the next moment, Dong Xuebing felt a ticklish feeling in his palm.
This Sister Luo….
Old habits die hard. Why was she doing this again?
Dong Xuebing wanted to stop Luo Haiting, but he did not want to hurt her feelings. He did enjoy flirting with her as she could spice up the stern working environment. He would rather face a beautiful woman at work than those stern-looking men. This might be his subconscious thoughts when he agreed to help her without hesitation that day. He had always been weak towards beautiful women.
Dong Xuebing waved. “Sister Luo, have a seat.”
“Ah…. Leader, you should sit too.” Luo Haiting replied.
Both of them sat on the sofa.
Dong Xuebing smiled.d “Stop calling me Leader. You are making me uncomfortable. Just call me Xiao Dong or Xuebing when we are alone.”
Luo Haiting touched her long dress and smiled. “Ok. I will call you Xuebing when we are alone.”
“That’s more like it.”
“I must congrats you on your promotion first.”
“Thank you. I did not expect to be transferred here.” Dong Xuebing did not hide anything from Luo Haiting. “The First Inspection Office’s responsibility is quite big.”
The First Inspection Office was a vital subdepartment, and it was stressful.
Luo Haiting replied immediately. “Xuebing, I am not flattering you. You are the most impressive and capable leader I have ever met. You can succeed in whichever position you are in.”
Dong Xuebing smiled. “Sister Luo, you must have worked with Panwei for too long and had improved on your flattery. Haha…. Let’s talk about you. How are you doing?”
“I am here for less than two days and am still familiarizing myself with the workplace.”
“How many people are there in First Inspection Office?”
“Other offices have one Deputy Director, but First Inspection Office is different. We have two Deputy Directors. The other Deputy Director is Liu Hanqing, and we have around six to seven staff. They are currently working in the big office. Do you want to visit them now?”
“Never mind. Tomorrow is my official first day at work. I will meet them tomorrow.”
“Our department’s staff are all the former Director’s staff. The former Director had retired after getting injured during the earthquake, and the staff is supporting Liu Hanqing now.” Luo Haiting explained. “Although I am here for a few days, I don’t have much power. Liu Hanqing is in charge of the First Inspection Office, and I have no say. I find Deputy Director Liu quite suspicious. I heard he had some backings in the City and is from a powerful family. He is driving a 400,000 RMB Toyota Crown.”
Driving a 400,000 RMB car is suspicious?!
Dong Xuebing did not tell Luo Haiting about his new car. His car was worth several times more than Toyota Crown. However, she had reminded him to be mindful of his conduct. He was the head of the First Inspection Office and should set an example for the rest. He decided to park his car somewhere and not let others see it before settling in.
Dong Xuebing did not talk about work after understanding the First Inspection Office’s situation. He knows Luo Haiting was still unfamiliar with this place as she was new.
Dong Xuebing looked at Luo Haiting. “Sister Luo, I was amazed when I saw you today. You had become younger and prettier.”
Luo Haiting laughed. “Oh, I am an old woman now.”
“Don’t be modest. Which old woman is as pretty as you?”
Luo Haiting touched her face and smiled. “Director, stop praising me. My clothes might look youthful, but my face is getting haggard.”
“Nonsense.” Dong Xuebing had gotten better at speaking after being with Xie Huilan.
Luo Haiting’s mood got better after Dong Xuebing’s praise. She smiled and stood up. “I will get you a gla.s.s of water. Director, do you prefer hot or warm water?”
“It’s fine. Don’t trouble yourself.”
“The weather is getting cold. I will get you a gla.s.s of hot water.”
Luo Haiting walked over to the water dispenser and bent over to get water. She back was facing Dong Xuebing, and her posture showed the curves of her perky b.u.t.t. It looked full, and it must be nice to touch. She got a gla.s.s of hot water and returned to the sofa. Before pa.s.sing the gla.s.s of water to Dong Xuebing, she blew on it to cool it down.
“Drink it. The temperature is just right.”
“Thanks, Sister Luo.”
Dong Xuebing took a sip, and it was the right temperature.
Suddenly, Luo Haiting moved her legs nearer to Dong Xuebing and let her knees touch his legs. Her long dress was covering his legs too. The next moment, he saw her lifting her legs slightly and heard the sound of high heels dropping on the floor. After that, he felt her foot pressing against his leg. She was wearing stockings, and her foot felt smooth. She caressed her foot against his foot and calf. Her dress covered her actions, and no one will suspect anything wrong.
This is killing Dong Xuebing.
What are you trying to do?
Dong Xuebing felt good, but he could not show it. This was torturing for him. Luo Haiting behaved as if she was not doing anything.
Both continued to chat.
In the end, Dong Xuebing could not stand it anymore. He stood up and said. “You must be thirsty. Let me pour you a gla.s.s of water.”
Luo Haiting tried to reject, but Dong Xuebing still walked to the water dispenser.
Dong Xuebing saw Sister Luo wearing back her heels from the corner of his eyes.
Dong Xuebing smiled to himself as he gave her the gla.s.s of water.
Luo Haiting sighed. “Thank you, Director. You treat me better than my husband.”
Dong Xuebing was dumbfounded again.
