Chapter 548 – Another gas leak in the beautiful District Mayor’s apartment!

Evening.

Dong Xuebing ate a Beijing meat bun from a roadside stall for dinner, and he took a cab to the underground carpark to retrieve his Cayenne. He drove it to a nearby vehicle repair and serving shop to change the engine oil and a car wash. While waiting, he crossed the road to a shopping mall and went to watch a movie.

The movie started.

Dong Xuebing laughed at the comedy and felt his mood got better.

The eviction and demolition of illegal building incident are over. Those illegal store owners were arrested, Peng Kun was taught a lesson, and Dong Xuebing had helped the residents. Although he might have offended some people in the process, he doesn’t care. He had established his authority and showed everyone he was not a pushover. His staff was looking at him with respect as he left the Subdistrict Office. It’s been a week since he came to Guang Ming Subdistrict Office, and he had gained the respect of everyone there. He doesn’t care if the higher-ups will be pressuring him in the future or the people he offended getting back at him. He will take it as he goes.

It’s fun to be challenging others.

Dong Xuebing could finally understand this saying.

Dong Xuebing left the cinema after the movie. He went to get his car at the auto shop before driving back to Guang Ming Subdistrict Family Quarters. After this incident, his mindset had changed. Since he had offended so many people and could not stay low, he might as well do whatever he wanted. He will not care what others think about him driving his Porsche Cayenne. He had bought it with his money. What’s wrong with driving it?!

It was almost 10.30 pm when he reached his apartment.

Dong Xuebing is not feeling sleepy and is enjoying the night scenery from his window.

Ten minutes….

Half an hour….

One hour….

It’s already past 11 pm, and it’s time for Dong Xuebing to sleep as he still got to work tomorrow.

Dong Xuebing stretched lazily and was about to step away from the windows with his ashtray when he saw a car entering the compound. He looks at the registration plate. It’s Nan Shan District No. 2’s car. The Audi A6 stopped at the foot of the building, and Geng Yuehua alighted. She walked towards the building, and her driver drove off.

So late?

Dong Xuebing looks away and shakes his head.

This woman is too much. You should thank your driver for waiting for you until now, but you just waved him off. Dong Xuebing felt Xie Huilan was a nicer person compared to her. At least she will smile at everyone and will thank her driver for driving her back. But Dong Xuebing does not hate Geng Yuehua as he knows this is her working style. The District will punish him this time should be the doings of District Party Secretary and the Organization Department Chief and have nothing to do with this pretty Mayor. This is only an excuse. He has low resistance towards pretty women.

Brush teeth.

Bath.

Dong Xuebing laid on his bed and smacked his arm to kill a mosquito. He switched on the air conditioner and went to sleep.

A while later, Dong Xuebing heard the sound of a door opening outside and a woman coughing.

Dong Xuebing opened his eyes and listened carefully. He realized the sounds were coming from Geng Yuehua’s apartment. He got up and wore his pants before going to the door. He saw her door was opened and all the lights were on. She had also opened her windows. He was surprised and opened the door. The moment he opens the door, there is a strong smell of gas.

Damn! Why is there another gas leak?!

Didn’t the gas company send someone to check the pipes yesterday?

Dong Xuebing broke into a cold sweat. If Mayor Geng died in her apartment because of the gas leak, he could submit his resignation the next day!

Why are gas leaks happening every day?!

Dong Xuebing rushed into the apartment. “Mayor Geng! Mayor Geng!”

Other than the gas smell, there was also the fragrance of shampoo and shower gel. The bathroom door is opened, and Geng Yuehua seems to be showering earlier. Dong Xuebing went to the kitchen and saw her wearing just a bathrobe, meddling with the main gas valve. Her hair is still wet and tied into a bun. There is still foam on it, and it seems she rushed out halfway during her bath.

“Are you ok?” Dong Xuebing asked.

Geng Yuehua coughed and waved her hand with a frown. “Gas leak.”

“I can smell it.” Dong Xuebing replied. “I had helped you change a new hose, and it shouldn’t leak again.”

Geng Yuehua replied with a stern expression. “What is the gas company doing?! They had sent their people to check yesterday, and a gas leak happened today! Cough…”

Dong Xuebing quickly replied. “Let’s go out now. The gas is too strong here.”

Before they left, Dong Xuebing glanced at the gas pipe and knew what happened. He said as they were leaving the apartment. “I know why your apartment keeps having gas leaks. Did you boil water earlier? The gas pipe is burned and not due to old aged.” He saw Geng Yuehua frowning and explain. “Did you just change your gas stove recently? The stove is too low, and when you cook or boil water, the heat from the flames might have melted the hose. Luckily this is discovered early, or else accidents might happen. You should use something to stack up the stove or change to a metal pipe.”

Geng Yuehua nodded.

“Let’s go to my apartment first. There are lots of mosquitos here.”

“Am I troubling you?”

“It’s fine.”

Dong Xuebing closed the door behind him as he didn’t want to gas smell to enter his apartment. This time, the gas leak is more serious than the last time, and they need to air the apartment longer.

“Do you want tea?”

“No.”

“Fruits? Do you want to eat anything?”

“No.”

Geng Yuehua crossed her legs on the sofa and started reading the newspapers.

It’s almost midnight, and it’s weird for them to be alone in an apartment. Dong Xuebing finally got time to admire her beauty. Water droplets are still dripping from her long hair, and some bubbles from her shampoo dripped into her cleavage. He lowered his gaze and looked at her long legs. There are still some blueish shower gel stains.

This is killing me.

Geng Yuehua is reading the City Daily, and she suddenly said. “Guang Ming Subdistrict Office had done well on cracking down on those illegal buildings. But you must take note of your working style. Do you understand?”

Dong Xuebing replied helplessly. “Yes. Secretary Wu Liang had reprimanded me.”

“Then I shall not talk about this anymore.” Geng Yuehua puts down the newspaper and looks towards the bedroom. “It’s late, and I shall not bother with your rest.”

“Haha… It’s alright. I am not tired. Let’s wait until your apartment is aired.”

Geng Yuehua nodded and used tissue paper to wipe the bubbles on her chest.

Dong Xuebing looks away and asks. “Do you want me to inform your brother downstairs?”

“Xinke had brought our parents back to their hometown and is not around today.” The shampoo bubbles continue to drip onto her body. She stood up. “Go and rest. I will go to Xinke’s unit to wash my hair. My shampoo is dripping all over your place.”

“It’s alright.”

“That’s it.” Geng Yuehua opens the door and steps out.

Dong Xuebing saw her was about to enter her unit and reminded. “There’s still gas in the apartment. You are…”

“The keys are in my room.” Geng Yuehua replied without turning.

Dong Xuebing nodded, and suddenly her apartment door slammed shut. She had opened the door of the opposite unit, and the air pressure caused her door to close.

Geng Yuehua’s face changed, and she tried pushing her door. It’s locked from inside.

Dong Xuebing saw her not moving and asked. “Your keys?”

“… inside.”

“What about your spare keys?”

“It’s with Xinke, and he will be back tomorrow morning.”

Huh? How did this happen? Shouldn’t you bring your keys along with you leave?

Dong Xuebing looked around and saw a small locksmith advertisement. He took out his phone and called the locksmith, but no one answered.

Both of them stood in front of the closed door in silence.

Dong Xuebing doesn’t know what to do. Mayor Geng is only dressed in a bathrobe, and her hair is dripping. It is not convenient for others to see her in this state. She couldn’t even call her driver to send her to the District Party Committee Family Quarters. He hesitated for a few seconds and suggested. “Mayor Geng, how about you wash your hair at my place first? It’s easy to catch a cold like this.”

Geng Yuehua thought for a while and wiped the shampoo bubbles off her face before entering Dong Xuebing’s unit again.
