Chapter 1159 – The Beautiful Mayor got hurt
Next day.
Morning, 6 am.
Dong Xuebing woke up and looked at the time. He got out of bed and looked outside. The living room is empty, and Mayor Jiang’s door is closed. He knew she was still sleeping. He did not wake her and entered the bathroom quietly. After that, he entered the kitchen and checked the fridge. He took some eggs and other ingredients to prepare breakfast.
One minute….
Five minutes….
Ten minutes….
The bedroom door opened.
Jiang Fangfang walked out of her room in her white bathrobe pajamas. “Huh?”
Dong Xuebing looked over. “Good morning, Mayor Jiang. Breakfast is almost ready.”
Jiang Fangfang walked over and spoke. “Why are you making breakfast? Let me do it.”
Dong Xuebing said. “Don’t… you made dinner for me a few times. It’s my turn now.”
Jiang Fangfang did not insist. She said. “Thanks. I am going to wash up first.”
Dong Xuebing nodded. “Ok. I am going to cook the eggs. It will be ready when you are done.”
Jiang Fangfang looked sexy when she just woke up. She looks more feminine and mature. Dong Xuebing felt he would not see her fair long legs after she washed up and changed. He took the opportunity to look at her legs when she turned and walked towards the bathroom.
The door closed.
Jiang Fangfang entered the bathroom.
Dong Xuebing continued to fry the eggs. He tasted the congee and turned off the stove.
Breakfast is ready.
Mayor Jiang had finished washing up.
Jiang Fangfang was still wearing her sexy and thin bathrobe pajamas. She did not change or return to her room. She went to the dining table and had breakfast with Dong Xuebing. They have known each other recently and are not so close to having breakfast in pajamas together. He felt they were a couple living together.
“What time did I fall asleep last night?” Jiang Fangfang asked.
Dong Xuebing looked at her. “You fell asleep after a few minutes.”
Jiang Fangfang nodded. “Thanks. I slept well last night.”
Dong Xuebing replied. “Great. Listen to me. You should stop taking sleeping pills. It might have side effects, and you will get over-reliance on them.”
Jiang Fangfang replied calmly. “I am relying on sleeping pills now. It’s fine.”
“You cannot ignore it. Health is more important than anything.” Dong Xuebing said.
Jiang Fangfang ate a piece of egg and looked at Dong Xuebing. “Ok. I will try. I will not get sleeping pills this month too. I will take the pills if I see them.”
“Ok. I can come over and read something to you if you really cannot sleep.” Dong Xuebing said without thinking. He realized it was not suitable for him to say this. He cannot go to Mayor Jiang’s apartment every night. People will find out. Although he does not care about his reputation, Mayor Jiang is a woman. Her reputation is essential.
“Let’s talk about it again.” Jiang Fangfang did not have any reaction.
Before 7 am.
Both finished breakfast.
Dong Xuebing looked at his watch. “I should be going.”
Jiang Fangfang asked calmly. “Is it too early? Where are you going now? Your luggage is in the car. Xiaona is too irresponsible. I will tell her off later.”
Dong Xuebing waved his hand. “It’s all right. Secretary Li must be forced to drink at Secretary Pu’s daughter’s wedding. It’s not her fault.”
“I will call her and ask if she is here.”
“Secretary Li will call me when she returns.”
“Ok. It’s too early to go to work. I will take a shower. You can watch TV.”
Dong Xuebing nodded and thought to himself. Mayor Jiang is too trusting. She let me stay overnight at her place and allowed me to sit on her bed while she slept. She wore short pajamas around me and was going to take a shower. She did not treat him as an outsider.
Sounds of water splashing came from the bathroom.
Dong Xuebing can smell the shampoo fragrance from the gap under the bathroom door.
Dong Xuebing knows Mayor Jiang started showering, and his imagination ran wild. He could not hear anything from the TV.
This is killing me.
I should leave earlier.
While Dong Xuebing was thinking, he heard a loud ‘thud’ from the bathroom. It seemed someone had fallen on the ground.
“Ah….” Mayor Jiang groaned.
Dong Xuebing quickly asked. “Mayor Jiang?”
No one replied. Dong Xuebing could only hear the water and a woman groaning in pain. Clank…. It seemed something was knocked down again.
“Mayor Jiang! Mayor Jiang!” Dong Xuebing walked over quickly and tried to open the door. But the bathroom door is locked from the inside. “How are you?”
“I fell.”
“Are you hurt?”
“I am fine…. Hiss….”
“Is it serious?”
“It’s a small cut.”
Jiang Fangfang does not sound OK from her groaning, and Dong Xuebing is anxious. He noticed the bathroom floor was slippery last night and knew it must hurt if anyone slipped. It might even cause a fracture. He shouted. “Wear your clothes and open the door.”
“No need.”
“You are making me anxious.”
“I cannot stand up.”
Jiang Fangfang cannot even stand. How is she going to open the door?”
Dong Xuebing immediately says. “Cover yourself with your clothes. I am going in.”
“Ok.” Jiang Fangfang replied.
Dong Xuebing waited for a few seconds and kicked the bathroom door. It opened immediately.
A gust of warm air gushed out.
The shower is still turned on, and water is spraying everywhere.
Jiang Fangfang was on the floor and had covered her body with her pajamas with one hand. Water is still raining on her, and her pajamas are soaked quickly, making them translucent. Her other hand held onto her thigh, and some blood flowed out.
She is bleeding.
Dong Xuebing got more anxious and rushed forward without thinking. “How are you?”
Dong Xuebing was getting wet, but he did not care. He looked at the blood.
Jiang Fangfang closed her eyes and said. “It’s a small cut.”
“You are bleeding. How is this a small cut? I am calling an ambulance.”
“No need.” Jiang Fangfang replied. “It’s just a small cut.”
Dong Xuebing saw the bleeding was not heavy and was relieved. He turned off the shower and kneeled beside Jiang Fangfang. “Let’s go into the room.”
Jiang Fangfang nodded and took a deep breath. “Sorry to trouble you.”
“Don’t mention it. I am going to carry you.”
Dong Xuebing bent over and placed his arms under Jiang Fangfang’s back and legs. He used his strength and carried her up. After that, he walked into the bedroom. Although Jiang Fangfang is covered in her bathrobe, she is not wearing it. He could not see anything, but his hands were on her bare body.
Her back, legs, and but….
Dong Xuebing’s arms are on Jiang Fangfang’s body, and felt awkward. However, he worries about her wound and quickly puts her on the bed.
“Did you break any bones?”
“I should be fine.”
“What do you mean by you should be fine?”
“I was in a daze from that fall earlier. I should be fine now.”
Jiang Fangfang looks better compared to earlier.
Dong Xuebing asked worryingly. “What about now?”
Jiang Fangfang pulled up her towel, covering her cleavage. She still looked in pain, but her eyes were calm. It seemed she was born to be calm, and nothing could faze her. “There’s Yunnan Bai Yao in the living room drawer. Help me get it. Thank you.”
The bedsheet had soaked up Jiang Fangfang’s blood and looked scary.
“Do you need stitches?”
“It’s not a big cut. I cut it when I slipped. I checked the wound, and it should be fine after applying some medicine.”
“Ok. Wait for me. I will get the medicine.”
“Ok.”
Jiang Fangfang covered herself with the blanket and tried moving her legs. She had recovered from the initial shock and could move them.
Dong Xuebing was slightly relieved to know she did not fracture any bones. He found that box of Yunnan Bai Yao in the drawer. It’s the powder form, and he took some bandages with him.
“I will leave the medicine here.”
“Ok.”
“I will leave the room while you apply the medicine.”
Dong Xuebing does not know if the cut is on her thighs or butt, but he cannot stay around or help.
