Chapter 991 – Xu Yan’s son in trouble

Morning.

Ma Yang Hotel. Dong Xuebing’s room.

“Xiao Dong, is that the bathroom?”

“Yes… take a shower first. I will buy some clothes for you.”

“No need. I got a coat. No one can see anything.”

“No. You will be uncomfortable. Just wash your clothes while I buy a set for you.”

“Ok. Just a blouse will do. Don’t get anything expensive.”

“Alright. I am going out now and will close the door for you.”

Dong Xuebing walked out of his room and looked around. He did not see his colleagues as they had left for work. He sighed in relief and drove his Passat to a nearby apparel store. He remembers Sister Xu’s blouse was dirtied by her vomit, and her pants were stained when they did it. So, he bought a set of clothing from inside to outside for her and returned to the hotel.

Dong Xuebing inserted the keycard and opened the door.

The room was filled with the shower foam scent.

This room was designed for couples. The bathroom wall was made of frosted glass, and you can see the person’s silhouette from outside. Dong Xuebing placed the clothing he bought on the bed and looked at the frosted glass. Xu Yan had finished washing her hair and was washing her body. She washed her arms, chest, and private parts from her silhouette. It was very seductive.

The water stopped after a while, and the door opened a slit. Xu Yan said. “Xiao Dong, are you back?”

“Yes.” Dong Xuebing quickly stands up.

Xu Yan continued. “I am done. Can you pass the new clothes to me?”

“Ok. I also bought a set of long johns. Try it on and see if it fits.”

“Ok. I noticed my inner pants were dirty. You are quite attentive.”

Dong Xuebing opened the clothing packages and walked towards the bathroom quickly. A slim hand was sticking out behind the door, and he could see part of her legs. Xu Yan was naked behind the door and dared not continue looking at her. He quickly passes her the clothes and walks away.

Dong Xuebing sat on the bed and looked at Sister Xu through the frosted glass.

He could make out what clothing she was wearing through her movements.

Xu Yan came out of the bathroom after a while.

Dong Xuebing stood up and asked. “Are the clothes fitting?”

Xu Yan smiled. “Yes. Even I cannot get such fitting clothes without trying at the shops.”

Dong Xuebing blushed. “Err…. I grabbed whatever I saw and did not know your sizes.”

Xu Yan waved her hand. “I don’t mean anything. It’s all in the past. Oh, you should take a shower too.”

“I am fine. How about I send you back to the city now?”

“I am not in a rush. Just take a shower first. I can watch the news.”

“Ok. I will take a shower now.”

“The water is not hot enough.”

Dong Xuebing’s underwear was also dirty, but he brought his clothes on this trip. He took out fresh underwear and long johns and entered the bathroom quickly.

Xu Yan did not look at him and continued to watch TV.

Dong Xuebing noticed his face and neck still had Xu Yan’s dried saliva stains. Although it was dried, it became slimy when wet again. He touched his face, and it felt smooth. Some parts of his body still had her dried body fluids. It was a wild night.

Sigh….

Dong Xuebing started to wash his body with shower foam.

Suddenly, Dong Xuebing paused. He looked at the frosted glass. He could see Sister Xu’s movements from outside, and she should see him now. He immediately turns his body away from the glass.

Ten minutes later.

Dong Xuebing came out of the bathroom. “Sister Xu, where are your clothes? I will wash them for you.”

“No need. I can wash it at home. My clothes will not dry if I wash them here.” Xu Yan looks at Dong Xuebing and points towards the frosted glass wall with her chin. “Is every room design with frosted glass like this?”

Dong Xuebing paused for a second. “I think so.”

“Oh.” Xu Yan nodded and did not say anything.

Dong Xuebing knew Xu Yan had seen him when he was bathing and knew she knew he had been looking at her earlier. “Err…. Don’t you need to work today?”

“I had taken off today.” Xu Yan looked at her watch. “It’s about time for me to leave.”

“Let me send you back.”

“No need. I am feeling better now. I can drive myself.”

“Then let me walk you downstairs.”

Both of them were about to leave the room when Xu Yan’s phone rang.

Xu Yan looked at the number and said. “It’s my son. I think he reached.” She answered the call. “Hello, Chaochao? Where are you?”

“Mum, I am in trouble.”

“What happened?”

“Come and save us! Quick!”

Chaochao was shouting, and even Dong Xuebing could hear him. He seemed to be running, and his background was chaotic.

Xu Yan’s eyes changed. “Tell me what happened! Quick!”

Chaochao said anxiously. “My classmates and I sat on the long-distance bus here. We heard Ma Yang County is a good tourist spot, and we can go hiking in the mountains. But before we reached the foot of the mountain, a car almost knocked on one of my classmates. The driver saw we were students and did not apologize. He even scolded us, and we got mad. We beat him up until he could not stand, and we panicked and ran into the mountains.”

Xu Yan forced herself to remain calm. “How badly injured is that man?”

Chaochao quickly replies. “Maybe he had a few fractures. I don’t know.”

“Then why are you all still running away?”

“That incident happened around 30 minutes ago. A few truckloads of soldiers arrived at the foot of the mountain. They were armed, and one of my classmates returned secretly to check on that man. He was caught by the soldiers and beaten up. We saw it and quickly ran. They are chasing after us now.”

Xu Yan took a deep breath. “Soldiers?”

“Hurry and save us, Mum!”

“Don’t hang up!” Xu Yan turned and said. “Xiao Dong, lend me your phone.”

Dong Xuebing did not ask anything because he could hear their conversations. He immediately gave his phone to Xu Yan. Needless to say, that man Chaochao and his classmates beaten up must be someone related to a top military leader. Fen Zhou City military base is located on Ma Yang County’s outskirts, near the mountains, that’s why the soldiers arrive so fast.

Xu Yan dialed a number. “Hello, Political Commissar Liu? I am Xu Yan from State Security.”

“Oh, Chief Xu.” Political Commissar Liu asked. “What is it?”

“My son and his classmates are hiking in the mountains near your military base. He just called me saying a group of soldiers is trying to catch them. I want to know what happened.” Xu Yan said in a serious tone.

Political Commissar Liu paused for a second. “Your son?”

“Do you all need to go to this extend, Political Commissar Liu?”

“I don’t know what happened. Please hold on while I ask what happened.” The phone went silent, and Political Commissar Liu returned after a while. “I asked around and found out Commander Liu’s son, Liu Haibin was beaten up. His injuries are quite serious, and he was sent to the hospital. I think an officer and his men left the base. Oh…. I still have some work to do and got to hang up. Don’t be anxious, Chief Xu. I will call them and ask about the situation. Bye.”

City Party Committee member, and Fen Zhou military base Commander, Liu Guowei’s son, Liu Haibin. Dong Xuebing was too familiar with him. When Dong Xuebing was inspecting the Tourism Department yesterday, he had a bad impression of Deputy Chief Liu Haibin, who was younger than him. He had turned Ma Yang County’s Tourism Department into a dump.

Chaochao and his classmates had beaten up Liu Haibin?!

The military sent his soldiers to catch them?!

This was an abuse of power. How can they do such things?

Dong Xuebing recalled Commander Liu’s threatening tone yesterday, and his impression of this father-and-son team worsened.

After hanging up her call with Political Commissar Liu, Xu Yan picks up her phone. “Hello, Chaochao?”

“Mum! Why are you not here yet?”

“I was on a call. How are you….”

Before Xu Yan could finish, someone shouted.

“Stop!”

“Stop right there!” 

“Shut up and bring them back!”

It was a few soldiers, and the next moment, Xu Yan heard Chaochao and his classmates’ screams.

“Ahh…. Why are you all hitting us?!”

“Save me! Mum!”

Xu Yan’s face changed. “Chaochao, pass the phone to them! Chaochao! Chaochao!”

A soldier shouted. “You bastard!” The line got cut.

Xu Yan looked terrible, and Dong Xuebing was furious. He knew Liu Haibin’s character well, and he was sure it was not Chaochao and his classmates who started this incident. How can the military send their soldiers to arrest them?! Just because Liu Haibin is the Commander’s son?!
