Chapter 985: Sister Xu is drunk
Night.
The sky is dark.
Dong Xuebing felt bored in the hotel and went to a roadside teahouse for tea. He had reported to the higher-ups about Liu Haibin. He will not let him off because his father is a Party Committee Member. The higher-ups did not say anything, and it was as if nothing had happened. He knew this would happen, and it was not easy to investigate Liu Haibin. Liu Haibin knew his father would protect him, and that’s why he was so arrogant.
How can such people enter the Government service?
How can he be a leader?
The Tourism Bureau was like a dump because of him.
Dong Xuebing shook his head. He hates these people with connections, but it is unavoidable. He was in a bad mood because his rank was too low. Suppose he was the City Commission for Discipline Inspection’s Secretary or even the City Party Secretary. In that case, he could ignore all obstacles and order a full investigation. Everyone would be afraid of him. He wants to be promoted quickly and do things for the people. He had to move up the ranks. Division Chief…. Deputy Bureau Director…. Bureau Director…. Once he reached Bureau Director, he could ignore everyone’s opinion and do whatever he wanted. His motivation for entering the Government Service is to do things according to his wishes and not to be afraid of others.
He drank two cups of tea and smoked two cigarettes.
Dong Xuebing still could not calm himself and would do whatever he could, although his rank was not high enough.
Ring… ring… ring…. Dong Xuebing’s phone rang.
Dong Xuebing looked at the caller ID. It was City State Security Bureau, Chief Xu Yan.
Dong Xuebing answered. “h.e.l.lo, Sister Xu?”
“Xiao Dong, where are you?” Xu Yan asked in a gloomy voice.
Dong Xuebing blinked. “I am outstation and having tea at a teahouse. What is it?”
Xu Yan said. “I am in a bad mood. Come and accompany me for some drinks.”
Dong Xuebing smiled. “I am also in a bad mood.”
“Great. Where are you now? I am going over now.”
Dong Xuebing immediately replies. “I am in Ma Yang County. It might be too late when you arrive.”
“It’s fine. I had just left Beijing, and Ma Yang County is not far from my current location. I should reach in an hour.”
“Huh? Ok. I will send you my address.”
“Ok. See you later.”
“Ok. Drive safely.”
Dong Xuebing rubbed his nose after hanging up. What happened to Xu Yan in Beijing? It’s rare to see her in a bad mood. He had never seen her speaking in this tone, and he guessed it must be related to her ex-husband and son. He paid for the tea and waited by the roadside for her.
Less than an hour later.
An Audi pulled up in front of Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing looked at the driver. “Sister Xu, you are here.”
Xu Yan looked listless. “Get in.”
“Ok.” Dong Xuebing got into the front pa.s.senger seat and closed the door lightly.
Dong Xuebing looked at Xu Yan and was stunned by her pretty face. After he used REVERSED to return her to her thirties, his heart would beat faster when he looked at her. She is wearing a dark brown blouse and tight black pants. He swallowed his saliva as he looked at her legs and quickly looked away. The memories of her helping him with his biological needs at her place was still evident in his mind. He was too embarra.s.sed to call her after that day and felt awkward meeting her again.
Inside the car.
Dong Xuebing asked. “Did something happen?”
Xu Yan continued driving. “You say first.”
“My troubles are small issues.” Dong Xuebing would not tell his mother and Xie Huilan about his troubles. But he felt comfortable speaking to Xu Yan because she was his former leader and was much older than him. He treated her as an elder and did not mind telling her his worries. “We met a City Party Committee member’s son during our inspection. We wanted to investigate him, but the higher-ups are stopping us, and I think they will cover up for him these few days. Sigh….” He told Xu Yan about the difficulties he faced.
Xu Yan listened attentively and nodded.
Dong Xuebing felt better after speaking to Xu Yan. “Alright. Let’s talk about you. What happened?”
Xu Yan had driven to a secluded area.
This area was surrounded by mountains and should be a tourist area. It was late, and no one was around. Xu Yan turned into a forested area and stopped the car behind a few trees. It was pitch dark and pa.s.sing cars could not see them.
Dong Xuebing was surprised. “Sis….”
Xu Yan pulled the handbrakes and took out a bottle of Wuliangye. She opened the bottle and took a few big gulps.
Dong Xuebing quickly stopped her. “Slow down. The alcohol content is high.”
Xu Yan smacked her lips and pa.s.sed the bottle to Dong Xuebing. “I don’t have gla.s.ses. Just drink from the bottle with me.”
Dong Xuebing blushed slightly and nodded. “Ok.” He took the bottle and took a sip. He could taste her saliva and returned the bottle. Xu Yan had called him instead of someone else when she was troubled. He felt honored and hoped he could comfort her.
One mouthful….
Three mouthfuls…
Five mouthfuls….
Xu Yan finally spoke after drinking silently for a while. She smiled wearily and shook her head. “I…. I had been worrying all my life. I worried about my career before marriage. I worried about my marriage before my divorce and worried about my son after the divorce. I have been burdened with worries all my life. You should understand what I am talking about as you are married. Sigh…. I feel life is so tiring.”
Dong Xuebing quickly replies. “Don’t say that. You can overcome all problems. Be positive.”
“Some problems cannot be overcome.”
“Even if you cannot solve it, you should still be positive.”
Xu Yan threw the bottle to Dong Xuebing and rubbed her temples. “My son had quarreled with his stepmother again. It is quite serious this time. They got into a fight, and my ex-husband did not care. He moved to his workplace and ignored them. My son still has to live with that woman. Although he is grown up now, he is still a kid. Living in such an environment will affect him. When I visited him last month, I noticed his changes. I immediately asked my ex-husband for our son’s custody, but he refused. He says this is his son and asked me to go to the courts if I want the custody.”
“He refused to care for our son and still refuses to let me take care of him.”
“He does not care about the well-being of our son but refuses to let others take him away. His ego does not allow it.”
“I think your son should feel better if he stays with you. After all, you are not married, and your ex-husband has remarried. That woman is also not on good terms with your son. How about you go to court to fight for his custody? I think you will win if your son agrees.”
“I think so too. I have been speaking to my lawyer these few days. But I still worry if I can succeed.” Xu Yan looked at Dong Xuebing. “I had been feeling frustrated. I had been suppressing my anger for many years, and I could not take it anymore. That’s why I called you out for a drink. I feel better now.”
Dong Xuebing nodded. “Right. Just say it out. My lips are tight, and you can tell me everything.”
Xu Yan took a sip of alcohol and smiled. “Come, let’s drink.”
Dong Xuebing took the bottle and drank a sip. “Sure. I will drink with you.”
Xu Yan exhaled loudly and rubbed the center of her brows. “I only want to live with my son and see him daily. Sigh…. This is what every parent wants. I don’t know if my son can understand how I feel.”
Dong Xuebing comforted her. “I am sure your son knows who is good to him well.”
“I hope so.” The car’s heater was strong. Xu Yan burped and unb.u.t.toned her blouse’s second and third b.u.t.tons, showing part of her lacy bra.
Sister Xu’s chest is big, and her b.r.e.a.s.t.s seem to spill out of her bra.
Dong Xuebing was shocked and cleared his throat. “You are drunk…. Err…. Drink lesser.”
“I can still drink.” Xu Yan laughed and s.n.a.t.c.hed the bottle. “Let’s continue to drink. I want to relax today.”
