Chapter 666: something happened
Geng Yuehuaâs apartment.
The rain had stopped, and the air had a faint grassy smell.
Dong Xuebing woke up on the sofa and rubbed his eyes. He felt his fever had subsided and was feeling better.
He heard someone is taking a shower in the bathroom.
Dong Xuebing looked towards the bathroom and knew the showering sound awakened him. Geng Yuehua is taking a shower, and thereâs a thermometer on the coffee table on a copy of the newspaper. He picks it up, and the reading is 37.3 degrees Celsius. She should have taken his temperature when he was asleep, and her concern touched him. He starts to feel regret sending Geng Xinke to the party school.
Geng Yuehua treats Dong Xuebing well, but heâŠ.
Dong Xuebing starts considering asking Uncle Yang to send Geng Xinke back.
No. That will make things worse. Also, how can the party school do such things?
Suddenly, the bathroom door opens.
Dong Xuebing quickly pulled up his blanket and sat up. âYou are awake.â
âYes.â Geng Yuehua tied up her hair in a bun quickly.
Dong Xuebing thanked Geng Yuehua. âThank you for what you did last night. I am feeling better, and my fever has subsided.â
Geng Yuehua nodded. âGo back if you are fine. I still have work to do.â
âOk.â Dong Xuebing wanted to stand up, but he remembers not wearing anything. âMayor Geng, my clothesâŠ.â
Geng Yuehua coldly replied. âItâs still wet in the bathroom.â
Dong Xuebing is speechless. How am I going to go out if my clothes are not dry? I canât go around naked.
âThenâŠ. Do you have any clothes I can wear?â Dong Xuebing asked.
Geng Yuehua ignored him, opened the curtains, and watered her plants. After that, she returned to the living room and watched the news on TV. She glanced at Dong Xuebing and walked to her bedroom. A while later, she returned with a set of clothes and threw it on the sofa before going to the kitchen.
Dong Xuebing looked at the clothes. Itâs a pair of Geng Yuehuaâs pants and a white shirt.
Life is so weird.
The last time, Geng Yuehua had spent the night at Dong Xuebingâs apartment, and he lent her his clothes and cooked for her. This time, itâs the opposite.
Dong Xuebing looked towards the kitchen and quickly put on the pants under the blanket. He got up and put on the shirt before walking to the mirror. The pants are quite loose as his butt is not as big as her, but the shirt is quite fitting. He sniffed at the shirt and could smell a sweet scent.
Dong Xuebing went to the bathroom to wash his face and looked at the time. Itâs already past 9 am.
Geng Yuehua walked out of the kitchen with two bowls of porridge. These are leftovers from the porridge last night.
âItâs hot. Let me carry it for you.â
Geng Yuehua gave him one bowl and sat at the dining table without saying a word.
Dong Xuebing knows this bowl was for him, and he sat down to eat quietly.
Geng Yuehua eats as fast as she showers. Dong Xuebing had only eaten three mouthfuls, and she had finished her bowl of porridge and placed the bowl in the kitchen sink. After that, she sat on the sofa to continue watching the news and making phone calls.
âXiao MaâŠ. Have they arrived? Alright. Go and fetch them.â
âDirector Liu, bring the report to the Government Office now. I will read it before noon.â
âOld Sun, amend that proposal. I had read it yesterday, and there is a big problem with itâŠ. Stop giving me excuses. If you all are not going to do it properly, I will get someone to replace youâŠ. Do you have any other problems? No? Good. I want to see the amended proposal before noon.â
Dong Xuebing wanted to bid goodbye but dared not interrupt Geng Yuehua as she was busy. He finished his porridge and washed the dishes in the kitchen. At the same time, he also cleaned her kitchen for her.
After a while, Dong Xuebing walked into the living room and saw Geng Yuehua writing something in a notebook. He said. âMayor Geng, if thereâs nothing else, I wouldâŠ.â
Ring⊠ring⊠ringâŠ.
âWait.â Geng Yuehua answered her phone.
Dong Xuebing nodded and stood there.
âHello.â Geng Yuehua seems to speak to everyone with the same unfriendly tone. âWhat is it?â
Secretary Ma answered. âMayor, something happened.â
âSpeak.â
âThe Japanese delegationâs flight was rescheduled yesterday and had arrived in our Province City an hour earlier. Chief Pang and I just found out about this, but they had left.â
âLeft?â
âThis is a big group of investors, and some of them are contacted by Da Feng County. Someone told me that Da Fengâs Investment Promotion Agency and their Leaders had fetched them, including the investment delegation we contacted. They had left around thirty minutes ago, and I am returning to the District with Chief Pang now.â
Geng Yuehuaâs face changed and scolded. âWhat are they trying to do?!â
Ma Jian cautiously asked. âMayor Geng, what should we do now?â
âYou all donât need to come back. Go to Da Feng County and bring them back.â Geng Yuehuaâs eyes grew cold. âWait for me there.â
âYes.â
The phone was loud, and Dong Xuebing could hear their conversation.
Da Feng County had snatched the group of investors from Nan Shan District. Da Feng County had done the same thing to Dong Xuebing before, and they still did not learn their lesson. They are also under Fen Zhou City, but they do this to their fellow district.
Geng Yuehua puts on her coat and grabs her bag while calling her driver. âHello, Iâm Geng Yuehua. Pick me up at Guang Ming Subdistrict Office Family Quarters in ten minutesâŠ. Where are you? What are you doing at Xi Ping District? Didnât I tell you to do that in the afternoon? Are you deaf, or I had not made myself clear? How long can you reach? Half an hour?!â She scolded. âYou donât need to come.â She hung up.
Geng Yuehua called the District Government Office to send a car.
Dong Xuebing saw Geng Yuehua losing her temper and said. âMayor Geng, I am nothing to do today, and I can be your driver.â
Geng Yuehua looks at him. âYou have your car keys?â
âI didnât drop my car keys. I had only lost my apartment keys.â Dong Xuebing took out his Porsche keys. âI can reach Da Feng County within half an hour.â
Geng Yuehua walks over to her shoe cabinet and puts on a pair of flats. âGo.â
âOk.â Dong Xuebing doesnât have anything to bring and quickly follows Geng Yuehua downstairs. He opened the rear passenger door for her.
After that, the Cayenne dashed out of the quarters.
Geng Yuehua likes things to be done fast and doesnât like to wait. This was her working style, similar to Dong Xuebing when he lost his temper. Da Feng County Mayor Li Feng and the former Investment Promotion Agency Chief Pang Zhou had created trouble for him once, and they are doing it again. This made him mad. Nan Shan District had spent two to three months preparing for the investment delegationâs visit, and they could not let Da Feng County snatch them away.
âFaster.â Geng Yuehua said to Dong Xuebing in between her phone calls.
âOk.â Dong Xuebing floored the accelerator.
There are not many cars on the road to Da Feng County, but the road is uneven with potholes. If Geng Yuehua had sat in her Audi or Passat, she might not reach in an hour. But Dong Xuebing is driving a Cayenne suitable for such road conditions. After all, this car cost two million.
About half an hour later, a Cayenne enters Da Feng County.
Dong Xuebing felt great. He did not feel anything during other days, but his carâs performance let him feel worthwhile during emergencies.
âWe have reached.â Dong Xuebing asked. âWhere shall we go?â
Geng Yuehua reply. âSend me to the County Party Committee Building, and you go to their Investment Promotion Agency to meet up with Ma Jian and Pang Zhengyi. Wait for my instructions there.â
âOk.â
Geng Yuehua had been to Da Feng County and directed Dong Xuebing to her destination. She alighted and walked into the building.
The guard extended his hand to stop her. âWho are you looking for?â
Geng Yuehua ignored him and continued her way.
âHey! Stop there!â The guard shouted.
A few Government staff walked out of the building to receive her. They seemed to know Geng Yuehua would be here. âDistrict Mayor Geng.â
