Morning.
Xu Yan’s apartment.
It was chilly after rain during winter, and the windows were frozen.
But Xu Yan’s bedroom was hot for Dong Xuebing, who had just been released.
Xu Yan’s hand slowed down. “Done?”
“Yes.” Dong Xuebing replied embarrassedly. “Sister Xu, I….”
Xu Yan pulled out her hand from his pants. “Don’t say anything, and get up. Take off your pants.”
“Ok.” Dong Xuebing sat up and pulled down his pants after a short hesitation.
Xu Yan grabbed some tissues from the bedside table and wiped her hand. After that, she gave a few pieces of tissues to Dong Xuebing. He took it and wiped himself under the blanket. He was afraid she might see it and could not stand this ambiance.
Xu Yan saw his actions and laughed. She slapped Dong Xuebing’s leg. “Alright. Get up.”
Dong Xuebing nodded but did not move. He was not wearing anything under the blanket and was shy even after what Xu Yan did. He was embarrassed to be naked in front of her. She seemed to know what he was thinking and walked to the balcony to get his clothes. His clothes were dried after one night.
After wearing his clothes, Dong Xuebing went out to brush his teeth.
When Dong Xuebing finished washing up, Xu Yan was done with breakfast.
Dong Xuebing said anxiously. “Why did you cook breakfast? I said I will assist you.”
“I don’t need your help. Haha….” Xu Yan waved her hand. “Sit and eat while it’s hot. Try this egg soup.”
Dong Xuebing sat down and drank the soup. “Delicious.”
Xu Yan peeled a salted duck egg and gave it to Dong Xuebing. “Eat more. Here.”
Dong Xuebing’s face turned red when he saw Xu Yan’s hand. “Thank you.”
“Don’t mention it.”
Dong Xuebing had never felt so uncomfortable during a meal. However, his body was relaxed and satisfied. Who would not be satisfied after getting a hand job by a beautiful woman? After breakfast, he felt he should say something. “Sister Xu, earlier I was…. I don’t want you to think that I had given you the beauty treatment because I want…. I just wanted to repay you. Without you, I would not have a smooth career in government service. So, you….”
Xu Yan looked at Dong Xuebing. “Did you think I had done that because of what you did?”
Dong Xuebing thought like this, but he did not say it.
Xu Yan laughed. “I said many times. It has nothing to do with your massage treatments. I just wanted to help you because you had a hard time.”
“But….”
“No buts. Go and do the dishes. My wrist is aching.”
“Ok. I will wash the dishes.”
Dong Xuebing went into the kitchen to do the dishes.
When Dong Xuebing was done, he saw Xu Yan had changed.
Xu Yan was wearing a bright dress, light blue hair clip, beige stockings, and a pair of white heels.
Dong Xuebing was stunned. “You are beautiful.”
Xu Yan smiled. “I should not be wearing such colors at my age. But after I regained my youth, I think it’s quite suitable. I bought this dress ten years ago and did not throw it away. Haha…. I did not expect to wear it again.”
Dong Xuebing praised. “It suits you. If you wear this outfit to work tomorrow, everyone will be shocked and will not recognize you.”
“You are exaggerating.”
“It’s true. I would think you are in your twenties if I didn’t know you.”
Xu Yan waved her hand. “Stop your flattery.”
“I am not flattering you. If you don’t believe me, you can try it tomorrow.” Dong Xuebing laughed. “But I think you should wear clothes that will make you look older. You will shock everyone with your sudden changes.”
Xu Yan was amused. “Do you talk to your wife like this at home?”
“No.”
“Don’t think I don’t know. I had met Xie Huilan once before. She is beautiful.”
Dong Xuebing replied. “How can she be compared to you?”
“Alright… alright….” Xu Yan laughed. “Come over and watch the news with me. Oh, what time are you going home?”
“Huh? Should be around 10 am.”
“Ok. Leave after the news.”
They sat on the sofa in front of the TV.
Dong Xuebing secretly glanced at Xu Yan’s legs and wanted to stroke her. But he controlled himself, as he knew she would never allow it. He was unsure about his relationship with her now. After what happened this morning, they are no longer elders, juniors, friends, or former Leaders and subordinates. He felt their relationship had exceeded normal relationships and had become ambiguous.
After a while.
The news ended.
Dong Xuebing said. “Sister Xu, I am going back.”
“Ok. Go back and have a nice talk with your mother.” Xu Yan took out a box of health supplements from under the coffee table. “Here, give this to your mother and say it’s from you.”
“No…. I can’t accept this.”
“This is a gift from others, and I don’t like to eat supplements. Take it.”
Dong Xuebing accepted the gift. “Thank you.”
Xu Yan patted Dong Xuebing’s hand and gave him a few hundred RMB. “You don’t need to be so polite in front of me. Here, take this money and take a taxi back.”
Dong Xuebing kept the money. “Ok.”
Xu Yan walked Dong Xuebing to the door, and she looked at him in his eyes before she opened the door. “If you are kicked out of your house again, come and find me. This is also your house. I enjoyed your company. Oh, if you quarreled with your wife again and could not satisfy your urges, you can come here too. I can use my hand to help you. Haha….”
Dong Xuebing’s face turned red immediately. “Ah….”
“Don’t be embarrassed.” Xu Yan smiled and pushed him out of the door lightly. “Everyone has biological needs. Bye.”
