Power and Wealth Chapter 462 -Bringing Huilan home!

Chapter 462 – Bringing Huilan home!

Afternoon, 4.30 pm.

Before knocking off, Dong Xuebing took a taxi back to the Investment Promotion Agency.

On his way, he received calls from his friends and colleagues asking him about this case and his relationship with Xie Huilan. Hui Tian Police Station, Liu Dahai, the first question after Dong Xuebing answered is, “Is it real?” Beijing Xin Hua Agency Intern Host, Su Jia, also called. “Xuebing, you are quite capable.” There’s no way for him to hide it anymore, and he can only tell them the truth.

Upon arrival, Dong Xuebing paid the driver and entered the Agency.

A few Business Section staff had also returned to the Agency, and they looked at Dong Xuebing in shock.

“Chief.”

“Chief Dong.”

Everyone had heard about it.

Dong Xuebing nodded and went upstairs to his office. Before he could reach for his cigarette, someone knocks on his door.

Dong Xuebing laughed. “I was about to find you.”

Luo Haiting smiled wearily. “Chief, I heard…”

“Don’t need to say anymore.” Dong Xuebing smiled. He had repeated the same lines several times today. “It’s true. What else do you want to know? Go ahead and ask.” Seeing Luo Haiting did not say anything, Dong Xuebing continued. “Since you don’t have anything to ask, I will ask. Haha… after I was taken away in the morning, how are the investment fair preparations? Give me a summary of what you all have done. Oh, please get Section Chief Lin, Section Chief Jiang, and the rest over.”

Luo Haiting immediately leaves the office to call the rest of the department heads.

Lin Pingping, Jiang Hailiang, and the rest updated Dong Xuebing on their work while thinking if they should change their attitude.

He is Mayor Xie’s fiancé.

They still cannot accept this!

Dong Xuebing did not change at all. He listened to their updates and reminded them to note certain things before asking them to go home. He lit a cigarette, packed his things, and drove that rundown Santana out of the Agency. He is going back to have dinner with Xie Huilan.

Ring… ring… ring…

Luan Xiaoping called when Dong Xuebing was driving, and he answered. “Hello, Mum.”

“You brat! Are you trying to scare me to my death?!” Luan Xiaoping sounded like she had just cried. “I thought you are going to jail!”

Dong Xuebing laughed. “I am not going to jail. This had nothing to do with me, and I was only implicated in it. Mum, there nothing to be afraid of. I am fine as I had not done anything wrong… Haha…”

Dong Xuebing could only hear sniffles, and Luan Xiaoping did not say anything.

He quickly consoles her. “Sorry for making you worry. Where are you now?”

“I am at your grandmother’s house.”

“Don’t be angry. How about I go over and let you give me a beating?”

“Stop talking nonsense!”

Luan Xiaoping’s character is like her son, who keeps everything to herself. When she heard her son is arrested for murder with his fingerprints as evidence, she was scared out of her wits. But she is relieved after he is released from the Public Security Bureau. “Xiao Bing, I want to ask you something.”

“Yes. What is it?”

“I heard everyone saying that you are dating Mayor Xie.”

“Err… yes.”

Luan Xiaoping paused for a few seconds, and she asked angrily. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Are you trying to hide it from me?”

“No… it’s too early.”

Luan Xiaoping heard this and got more furious. “What do you mean? She said those things to prove you innocent, and you all had slept together. Even the marriage date has been confirmed, but… I don’t even know about this. Don’t you think you should let me know about this?!”

“Ah… Don’t be angry. It’s my fault.”

Luan Xiaoping paused for a second and asked. “Is it because the Mayor is looking down on us?”

Dong Xuebing quickly explained. “How is it possible? It is because of my work, and we need to keep our relationship confidential. Huilan is a nice girl and is very gentle. She will not look down on others, and this has nothing to do with our family background.” He quickly says good things about Sister Xie. “She is a nice person, and you will like her.”

“Alright. Bring her back to show me.”

“Ah?” Dong Xuebing is stunned. “Err… is it too early? No… I mean, she is very busy, and I am afraid…”

“I don’t care. You must bring her back for dinner tonight.”

“Tsk… She is also not going to run away. Why are you so anxious?”

“How can I not be anxious? How old are you? You still have not brought any girlfriends back, and I must see your girlfriend today. Your Eldest and Second Aunts are preparing dinner. You must bring her back later! Bye.” Luan Xiaoping is worried about her son’s future, and she also felt this is not possible. She knows her son well, and he is not worthy of being with Xie Huilan.

Since his mother had said this, what else can Dong Xuebing do?

“Alright. Then… I will ask her.”

“Ok. I will be waiting.”

Dong Xuebing has a headache after hanging up. It’s not that he doesn’t want to bring Sister Xie back to see his relatives. It’s because he has never done this before and felt awkward. Never mind. Since Mum wants to meet her, then let them meet. He started driving towards the County Government Building and calls Xie Huilan.

…….

5.30 pm.

County Government Building.

Many people noticed Dong Xuebing when his car turned into the compound. They started whispering among themselves, and some even look out from the windows. It’s after office hours, and Deputy Mayor Cheng Keliang is walking out. He maintained a poker face, but many people know he must be feeling terrible.

Many people are shocked and are talking about Chief Dong and Mayor Xie’s relationship as gossip. But only Cheng Keliang is not feeling like this.

Cheng Keliang had been courting Xie Huilan for the previous months!

Mayor Xie is dating Chief Xiao Dong?! This is a severe blow for Cheng Keliang!

Dong Xuebing looks at Cheng Keliang leaving and felt good. He doesn’t need to worry about other guys going after Xie Huilan after their relationship is exposed.

Suddenly, a tall and beautiful woman in high heels walks out of the building.

Dong Xuebing winded down the window and waved to Xie Huilan.

Xie Huilan smiled and walked over to a black Passat to speak with her driver Old Yan. She seems to be asking him to leave before she boards Dong Xuebing’s Santana. But this time, she is sitting in the front passenger seat and not in the rear passenger seat like a leader. Many people noticed Dong Xuebing coming to fetch Xie Huilan, and she is sitting in front. This is the first time they are showing others they are dating. Some people, who are still suspecting if this is true, no longer doubt it. They are dating!

In the car.

Xie Huilan looks at Dong Xuebing. “What is it? Why did you ask me to finish work early today?”

“It’s like this.” Dong Xuebing smiles. “It’s my Mum. Err… My Mum and my relatives want to meet you and asked me to bring you back for dinner.”

Xie Huilan looks at her watch. “How about another day?”

“Are you busy?”

“It’s too late today.”

Dong Xuebing is unhappy. “Your meeting in the City has been delayed, and what are you busy with? My Mum insists she must meet you today and I agreed. I will look bad if you are not going. I know you had met my Mum, Uncle, and Aunts at the hospital. But it is different this time. We are dating, and…”

Xie Huilan looks at her watch again and smiles. “Alright… alright… just drive.”

Dong Xuebing is frustrated. “Why do you sound so reluctant? If you don’t want to go, then I will go myself!”

Xie Huilan saw Dong Xuebing got angry and laughed. “When did I say I don’t want to go?” She points to herself. “It’s already 5.30 pm, and it’s too rush. I don’t even have time to change. This is my first time going to meet your Mum, and you must let me prepare to leave a good impression, right?”

“Ah… you should say this earlier.” Dong Xuebing replied. “You don’t need to change, and you are looking good.”

“Haha… fine. Since you say this set of clothes is fine, then I will not change. Send me to the mall to get some gifts.”

“No need. I had bought gifts.”

“How can it be the same? Just send me there. Drive.”

Dong Xuebing smiles. “Alright. Let’s go.”
