Power and Wealth
Chapter 1348 – There are benefits everywhere
Night.
After 8 pm.
Yao Cui’s courtyard became lively after drinks and food. Although they said not to overdrink, they started to make each other drink.
“Let me offer you a toast, Mayor Jiang.”
“Mayor Dong, have another glass.”
“I cannot drink anymore. I drank a lot.”
“It’s still early. Pour a full glass. Cheers!”
“I really cannot drink anymore. I will drink half a glass. That’s my limit.”
Jiang Fangfang held the highest rank at the table, and no one dared to make her drink. She took small sips and didn’t bottom up. But Dong Xuebing was not so lucky. He was the host today and helped the Jiang Faction win today. Pu An and Jiang Xiangrong did not let him off because he was the star of this gathering. They kept making him drink. He drank a few glasses and felt giddy, but he was not drunk.
Pu An changed the way he addresses Dong Xuebing. “Xuebing, I heard you climbed up to the sixth building and jumped down while carrying a woman today.”
Lu Zhi could not hold his liquor. He stopped drinking much earlier. He looked at Dong Xuebing curiously. “Yes. I heard about it, too.”
They were not at the scene and did not see what happened.
Dong Xuebing waved his hand. “I did not jump. I used some techniques to break my fall.”
Jian Xiangrong laughed. “It’s a pity we did not see your heroic posture.”
Dong Xuebing laughed. “It’s pathetic. It was too risky. I would not do it if it weren’t for the fire engine’s ladder broke down.”
Yan Yizhi interrupted. “You must have the skills; not many will dare to do that. I would be scared to death before I jump.”
Chen Xiaomei said. “That’s right. That is the sixth floor.”
Pu An asked curiously. “Xuebing, where did you learn these skills?”
Dong Xuebing explained. “I worked in the Public Security Bureau for a year and was trained there. My body is also slightly better than many people.”
Jiang Fangfang said slowly. “Your body is much better than others.”
Everybody nodded. “You injured yourself when you fell from the third floor, and you recovered in a month. No one can compare to you.”
Dong Xuebing replied. “No…”
Jian Xiangrong said. “I went to the Public Security Bureau this afternoon and heard you rescued almost twenty people today. Everybody was grateful to you.”
Dong Xuebing sighed. “It will not make a difference as the fire department can rescue them. It’s been so long, and the building did not collapse fully.”
Pu An replied. “It’s different. The situation was terrible, and no one knows when the building will collapse. Some units were on fire, and bricks and tiles were falling. What if another explosion happens? It will surely collapse, and no one will survive. You dare to rush in and rescue those people. Everybody saw it. The Public Security Bureau and their family members are grateful to you.”
Dong Xuebing said some modest words.
Pu An and Jian Xiangrong started drinking with Dong Xuebing again. Dong Xuebing was getting drunk. He could only drink around 150 ml if he did not use REVERSE. He was not used to hearing others talking about him. He likes to stay away from the limelight. It was not because he wanted to stay low. It was because he was afraid the Chinese Academy of Sciences might cut him up for experiments.
Dong Xuebing wobbled and put down his glass. “I finished my glass. I cannot drink anymore. My head is spinning, and I need to wash my face.”
Jiang Fangfang looked at him. “Stop drinking if you cannot drink anymore. You just recovered from your injuries.”
Pu An showed his concern. “How about you lie down and rest for a while.”
Dong Xuebing stood up. “I am fine after washing my face. Carry on eating. Has the food gone cold? I will heat them when I return.”
Jiang Fangfang said. “Don’t worry about it. Let Xiao Li heat them.”
Li Xiaona acknowledged and brought the dishes into the kitchen.
Dong Xuebing’s legs were wobbly as he walked.
Yao Cui noticed it and quickly went over to support him. She helped him to the tap in the courtyard.
Dong Xuebing turned on the tap and washed his face with the cold water.
He sobered up slightly.
“I don’t have a towel here. I will get one from my room.”
“No need. It will dry in a while.”
“No. Your face will itch if it is blown dry by the wind.”
“All right. I can walk by myself. You don’t need to help me.”
“How are you fine when you cannot stand properly? Stop talking.”
No one was around, and Yao Cui did not speak politely with him. She ignored him and helped him into her room.
The room was dark.
Yao Cui turned on the lights.
Dong Xuebing took a few steps and sat on Yao Cui’s bed. “Where is your towel?”
“Wait. I will get it.”
“Ah… My classmate is the best.”
“You noticed it now? Who asked you to drink so much?”
“Sigh… I cannot reject them.”
“Don’t drink anymore. I am not going to send you back if you are drunk.”
“Haha… Sure. I will listen to you. I am not drinking anymore.”
“That’s more like it.” Yao Cui giggled. She took a new towel and passed it to Dong Xuebing. “It’s new. No one used it before.”
Dong Xuebing nodded and wiped his face with the towel before returning it to Yao Cui. “Thanks.”
Yao Cui saw there were still droplets on Dong Xuebing’s chin and ears. She took the towel and started dabbing the water droplets on his ears. “You still dare to call yourself a Mayor? You don’t even know how to wipe your face.”
Dong Xuebing laughed.
Dong Xuebing’s face was dried.
Yao Cui turned to hang the towel. Dong Xuebing was exhausted and laid on Yao Cui’s bed. He stretched and felt something on the bed. He pushed it aside subconsciously and felt something moved under him. His body was lying on it. He turned slightly and pulled that thing out.
Damn!
What the hell is this?
It was a yellow bra.
Dong Xuebing was surprised and looked beside him. A pair of yellow underwear was beside the pillow. These two items were not conspicuous, and he did not notice them earlier.
Yao Cui hung the towel and turned. She saw it and blushed. She quickly snatched the bra from Dong Xuebing and stuffed it into a drawer. She stared at Dong Xuebing. “Why are you touching my things?”
Dong Xuebing protested. “I don’t know. It was under me, and I pulled it out.”
Yao Cui was mad. “Then can’t you see what it is before you take it?”
Dong Xuebing raised his hands. “It’s my fault.” He mumbled. “Why didn’t you put your clothes away after you changed? Why did you leave it on your bed?”
Yao Cui heard him. “I was changing, and you barged in. I got no time to tidy my room!”
“Yes. I am sorry.” Dong Xuebing knew she was not angry. He was tipsy and started flirting with her. “All right. Don’t be angry. Next time, I will leave my underwear on my bed for you to see.”
Yao Cui grumbled. “You pervert. Why should I look at your underwear?”
Dong Xuebing cleared his throat and felt he had said the wrong things. “I was talking rubbish. I’m drunk.”
“No one drunk will admit they are drunk.” Yao Cui exposed him.
Dong Xuebing was dumbfounded and held his head to pretend he was feeling terrible.
Yao Cui looked at him. “When are you going back? Are you going to sleep on my bed?”
Yao Cui waited for a while and sat beside him. She pressed Dong Xuebing’s temples with her thumbs and massaged gently.
“Stop… stop…” Dong Xuebing said.
“Just lie there.” Yao Cui continued to massage his head.
Dong Xuebing tried to stop her, but she continued, and he let her be.
But Yao Cui was bending over Dong Xuebing, and her blouse opening opened up. He could see a deep cleavage down her blouse.
It looks so soft and smooth.
Dong Xuebing could feel it without touching it.
But Dong Xuebing does not dare to look down at her blouse openly. He would be discovered. He closed his eyes, looked around, and glanced at her chest. Yao Cui did not realize and continued to massage him. Her breasts swayed along with her arm movements.
Dong Xuebing was enjoying himself.
