Power and Wealth

Chapter 973: Wife got promoted

A few days later.

Evening. Dong Xuebing’s apartment.

Dong Xuebing was busy in the kitchen after work. He prepared the ingredients he bought from the supermarket and cooked a few dishes. He looked at the time and set the bowl and chopsticks on the table.

Ding dong... ding dong....

The doorbell rang, and Dong Xuebing quickly opened the door. “Didn’t you say you would be home around 7 pm?”

Xie Huilan replied lazily. “There was a last-minute meeting, and I got delayed. Hmmm.... Smells great. What did you cook?”

“I made all your favorite dishes.”

“You are so good to me. Haha....”

“Of course. Change your shoes, and let’s eat.”

“Ok. Let me drink water first.”

“Drink the soup I made while it is hot.”

After a while, both were seated at the dining table. Dong Xuebing kept putting food into Xie Huilan’s bowl. “Try this. I have been working late the past few days, and I did not have the chance to cook for you. I made dinner today since I am free. See if my food standards are still the same. I called my Mum earlier to ask her how to cook the soup. It should be good.”

Xie Huilan smiled as she drank the soup. “It’s tasty. My husband’s food is the best.”

Dong Xuebing smiled. “Eat more if you like it.” He paused suddenly. “Eh? Something is wrong. Why are you so sweet to me today? This is not your usual self.”

“Haha.... Don’t you like me to praise you?”

“No. I am not used to it. Did something good happen?”

“You are so smart. Let’s talk about you first. How is the investigation?”

Dong Xuebing took a bite and said. “It’s considered over today. The prosecution office had started gathering evidence against Song Fei, and Xi Ping District Deputy Mayor Chu was charged with corruption and sacked from the party. His criminal charges were still pending and would fall under the Prosecution Office. Anyway, our job is done. As for Deputy City Mayor Feng, he was given a warning from the Provincial Government and barred from promotion for a year. Oh, you should know about this. We also caught several small fries within the Xi Ping District. Our Inspection First Office has completed the investigations, and we can finally rest.”

Xie Huilan continued drinking her soup and smiled. “I heard you made significant contributions in this case.”

Dong Xuebing replied. “Ah? Saving lives is considered a significant contribution. I deserved it. As for the investigation, I was faster than others. I used some tricks I learned from the Public Security Bureau. I might not have the political wisdom like you, but I am good with these tricks. The other Discipline Inspection staff are no match for me.” He was in a good mood these days as he had completed the mission perfectly. This credit goes to him, and it was what he needed now. He had planned everything before the building collapsed and finally got the results.

Xie Huilan laughed. “Alright. I will reward you for doing well. Come nearer.” She picked some food with her chopsticks. “Open your mouth.”

Dong Xuebing smiled and opened his mouth. “Ah....”

Xie Huilan laughed and fed him. “How is it?”

“Delicious.” Dong Xuebing swallowed. “Let’s talk about you. Why are you in such a good mood today?”

Xie Huilan glanced at him. “Didn’t you hear anything? Are you pretending not to know?”

Dong Xuebing blinked. “What is it? I rushed home to prepare dinner after work.”

“The City Party Committee called for a meeting at the end of the day, and I was called over.”

“Didn’t the City Party Committee have a meeting recently? Why are they having a meeting again?”

“The meeting is to announce my new appointment.” Xie Huilan smiled. “I am a Feng Zhou City Party Committee Member now, and I am taking over the former Deputy City Mayor’s duties. I will be assisting the City Mayor on human resources and deployment.”

City Party Committee?!

Feng Jie had dropped from the race, and Huilan won against the other Deputy Mayors.

Dong Xuebing cheered. “That’s great. You got a promotion.”

Xie Huilan laughed. “How is this a promotion? I am still holding the same rank.”

“A Deputy City Mayor in the Party Committee differs from an ordinary Deputy City Mayor. Those ordinary Deputy City Mayors cannot make any decisions, but a Party Committee Deputy City Mayor is different. There are only a dozen of Party Committee members in a city, and they get to vote on major decisions. You get to vote, and this is a promotion. Furthermore, you are only thirty-one and recently got promoted to Deputy Bureau Director. No.... we must celebrate with wine. Wait.... you are pregnant, and you cannot drink.”

Xie Huilan laughed. “This is the result of what you have done. If it weren’t for you, Feng Jie would not be punished, and I would not get this opportunity.”

“This seat belongs to you. People like Feng Jie don’t deserve it. How can he be not concerned about the disaster rebuilding efforts?” Dong Xuebing said. “You had reminded him, but he chose to ignore it. Serve him right.”

Xie Huilan continued eating and said. “Old Feng does his job well, and Deputy District Mayor Chu implicated him.”

Dong Xuebing scoffed. “Does his job well? Bullshit.”

Xie Huilan pointed at Dong Xuebing with her chopsticks. “Can you be more magnanimous? Don’t think so badly about others. Everyone has their good side.”

Dong Xuebing stopped talking. He was impressed by his wife’s virtues. She can remain calm and never criticize anyone behind their back, including those who clash with her. This was something he could not do. She is born to work in the government sector.

After dinner.

Around 8 pm.

Dong Xuebing walked out of the kitchen after doing the dishes and saw Xie Huilan on the sofa watching the news.

Xie Huilan had changed and taken off her sweater. She was wearing a white shirt and no pants. Her long legs were exposed, and Dong Xuebing could see the sides of her black lacy underwear.

Dong Xuebing got excited. “Don’t you feel cold? It’s winter.”

Xie Huilan replied without looking at him. “The heater is on.”

“Ah.... Why are you always dressed up this way? Are you trying to seduce me?” Dong Xuebing sat beside her and caressed her tummy. “Oh, it is getting bigger.”

“I am a few months pregnant. How can my tummy not get bigger?”

“Hehe.... Come closer. I want to talk to our baby.”

Dong Xuebing leaned and pressed his head against Xie Huilan’s tummy. He kissed and started chatting and singing to his baby. After a while, his hands started roaming, and he buried his head between her thighs.

“What are you doing?” Xie Huilan asked.

“We have not done that for a few days.”

“Oh, I forget. Haha.... It’s been a while.”

“We did not do it since we returned from our honeymoon. How many days has it been? The doctor says we should do it in moderation. What do you think?”

Xie Huilan crossed her legs and smiled. “Let me think about it.”

“What’s there to think? It’s settled. Let’s go.” Dong Xuebing carried Xie Huilan across his chest and entered the bedroom.

“I have not finished the news.”

“There’s a re-run tomorrow morning.”

“You... just do whatever you want.”

“That’s how I am.”

Dong Xuebing closed the door with his leg and carried Xie Huilan onto the bed. He took off all his clothes within seconds.

Xie Huilan tucked her hair behind her ears and laughed. She pinned her hair with a hairclip and leaned against the headboard. “I am in a good mood today, and I decided to reward you. Haha.... Tell me what you want me to do, but don’t go overboard.”

Dong Xuebing blinked. “Can you get on your knees?”

Xie Huilan smiled. “Huh? You want me to kneel?”

“I just want you to face down....”

“Do you think it’s right?”

“Yes.”

Xie Huilan thought for a second and replied. “Fine. I shall give in this time because of your good performance recently.” She turned and kneeled. She held the headboard and lifted her ass.

“Are you sure?”

“What do you think?”

“You must not get angry with me later.”

“Why do you have so much to say? Are you doing it?”

Dong Xuebing swallowed his saliva excitedly and pounced on her. He quickly unbuttoned her shirt.

Xie Huilan smiled and stroked his head. She pressed his head against her ears, letting him kiss them.

Dong Xuebing did what she wanted, and the bed started creaking a few minutes later.

The creaking sounds got faster, and Xie Huilan moaned softly.
