Chapter 998: Offending too many people
Afternoon, 1 pm.
The Audi drove past the final guardhouse and left the military base.
Dong Xuebing looked at the guards at the guardhouse through his rearview mirror and said. âAlright. We are safe now.â
Chaochao cheered. âGreat!â
A male classmate lifted both arms. âWe are finally saved!â
The female classmate turned to Xu Yan. âThank you, Aunt Xu. We should still be locked up if you did not come.â
âThank you, Aunt Xu.â
âThank you.â
The students thanked Xu Yan.
Xu Yan waved her hand. âYou all should thank your Uncle Dong. Itâs all because of him.â
Chaochao looked at Dong Xuebing and said. âThank you, Dong⊠Uncle Dong.â
They had to address Dong Xuebing as Uncle since Xu Yan said it.
Dong Xuebing waved his hand and continued driving. âDonât mention it. But I have to reprimand you all. The water is deep in local areas. You can never know if the person in front of you is a leaderâs relative. You all must be careful. Even if that Liu HaibingâŠ. Even if that person you all beaten up is in the wrong, you should not have hit him. Luckily, Sister Xu and I are in Ma Yang County and could help. If not, you all will have to suffer more.â He saw the students nodding and continued. âJust treat this as a lesson, and donât be rash next time.â
Donât be rash?!
Xu Yan was amused when she heard Dong Xuebing saying this.
The female classmate replied. âWe learned our lesson, Uncle Dong.â
The male classmate added. âItâs all my fault. I could not control myself and hit him. That guy was too much.â
âJust remember not to be rash.â Dong Xuebing said. âGive me a call if you reencounter such incidents. I will teach him a lesson. Sometimes, you donât need to beat up someone to teach him a lesson. There are other ways to punish them.â
Xu Yan interrupted. âXiao Dong, stop teaching them the bad things.â
Dong Xuebing cleared his throat. âI shall not say anymore. ErrâŠ. Are you all hungry? Letâs get lunch.â
Chaochao shouted. âI want to eat grill meat.â
Dong Xuebing laughed. âAlright. Letâs eat grilled meat!â
Chaochao was hungry and suddenly remembered what had happened. âUncle Dong, why did they donât they stop us earlier? There are so many of them, and they should be able to stop us easily. Furthermore, they have guns.â
The other male classmate added. âThatâs right. They were so fierce and were shouting at us. Why all of them kept quiet in the end?â
These are the questions in their minds as they look at Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing did not know how to answer them. âErrâŠ.â
Xu Yan laughed. âThose soldiers should have heard of your Uncle Dongâs name.â
Chaochao was surprised. âIs Uncle Dongâs name so scary?â
Xu Yan smiled. âYour Uncle Dong had fought off a Siberia tiger with his bare hands, fought a few dozen of angry mobs, held up a wall weighing more than a ton, buried for more than ten days during the earthquake, survived an air crash, killed nine escaped convicts with his hands handcuffed, and killed twenty over criminals. Do you think they still dare to fight him after hearing his name?â
Chaochao and his classmates were stunned. âAhâŠ.â
Xu Yan laughed. âAlthough there are twenty of them, they knew they were no match for your Uncle Dong. Thatâs why they are so obedient.â
Chaochao exclaimed. âYou are amazing, Uncle Dong.â
Dong Xuebing denied it modestly. âItâs not that amazing. Those rumors are exaggerated and made me notorious.â
Xu Yan laughed. âStop being modest. Who doesnât know about your skills in Fen Zhou City?â
Chaochao and his male classmate asked excitedly. âDid you fight a few dozen of people? Damn!â
âNo⊠noâŠ.â Dong Xuebing felt embarrassed. âIt was exaggerated.â
Xu Yan looked at Dong Xuebing. âI have to thank you for saving my son and his classmates. The military would not let them go so fast if it werenât for you. At the same time, I need to apologize for dragging you into my family affairs. This had nothing to do with you, and you donât need to be involved. Now, Commander Liu will remember you and might get back at you. If he told the higher-ups that you had interfered with their work, you would be affected. I will meet Commander Liu tomorrow and try to settle this conflict.â
Xu Yan was correct. She had an excuse for entering the military base because of her son. However, Commander Liu might think of Dong Xuebing as being nosey. He might transfer his hatred for Xu Yan and her son to him.
But does Dong Xuebing mind?
He had offended too many people and didnât mind offending one or two more.
Dong Xuebing replied. âYou donât need to go. You had paid his sonâs medical fees and showed your attitude. You will lower yourself if you meet him again. Donât worry about me. I am not afraid of Liu Guowei and am interested to know what he will do. I will be waiting for him. Donât worry about it.â
âButâŠ.â Xu Yan wanted to continue.
Dong Xuebing interrupted. âItâs fine. He cannot do anything to me.â
Xu Yan did not continue and say. âAnyway, thank you, Xiao Dong.â
âDonât mention it. Itâs fine.â
Dong Xuebing thought to himself. We had slept together, and whatâs there to thank? We are a family now, and your son is my son. Of course, he could not say this in front of Chaochao and his friends. Err⊠even if he is alone with Xu Yan, he will not dare to mention it. He knew she also understood why he helped her.
Chaochao and his friends continued to ask Dong Xuebing about his feats. âUncle Dong, how did you fight off that tiger?â
Dong Xuebing replied. âJust like thatâŠ.â
âYou are a government official. What is your rank?â
âHuh? I am a Deputy Division Chief with the Discipline Inspection, Inspection First Office.â
âAh? How did you become a Deputy Division Chief at your age? My Mum is only a Division Chief.â
âSister Xu climbed up through her efforts, and I got it through sheer luck. You cannot compare us.â
Chaochao and his friends were interested in Dong Xuebing and kept asking questions.
The car arrived at a restaurant selling grilled meat, and everyone got out. They entered the restaurant, and Dong Xuebing ordered a dozen plates of grilled meat.
The food was served, and they started grilling the meat.
Dong Xuebingâs started ringing.
Dong Xuebing saw it was Xie Huilan and quickly walked out of the restaurant to answer. âHuilan, it is settled. You donât need to worry about it anymore.â
âI know itâs settled, and you had barged into the military base.â
âHeheâŠ. Donât make it sound so bad. I did not barge into the base.â
âReally? HahaâŠ. How come this is different from what I hear?â
âI did not do anything. Those soldiers knew they were no match for me and stood there quietly. I was mindful of my actions.â
âYou should not be there in the first place. Why did you go?â
Dong Xuebing could not tell the truth. âSister Xu is my former leader and had taken good care of me. I must help her.â
âFine. I canât be bothered with you. But you must be prepared. Liu Guowei is unhappy with us.â
âI know. Just let him be. I canât be bothered with someone so petty like him. He doesnât listen and keeps pushing the blame on others. He spoilt his son, and that was the cause of this incident. Those kids were beaten up badly by those soldiers. How can he blame me? I would settle the score with him if he dared to get back at me. Who is afraid of him?â
âAre you trying to create trouble again? I am calling you to ask you to be careful.â
âI understand. Anyway, I am leaving tomorrow. Our inspection here is over, and he cannot find me even if he wants. Donât worry. I will not clash with him head-on unless necessary. Alright. I will not give in to him; his son, Liu Haibin, has serious issues. I must investigate and get rid of him from the government service.â
âAlright. You know what you are doing.â
âI know.â
Dong Xuebing continued with his lunch after hanging up.
Around the same time, news of Dong Xuebing barging into the military base spread in Fen Zhou City. Everyone drew a deep breath. The God of Plagues is indeed the God of Plagues. He can create trouble even on official inspection duties.
Clashing with the City Party SecretaryâŠ.
Clashing with Deputy City Mayor FengâŠ.
Now, Dong Xuebing is clashing with a military base Commander.
You are good at offending others.
