Upstairs.
Xie Huilan’s room.
After they entered her bedroom, Sister Xie went into the bathroom and spent ages inside.
Dong Xuebing looked at the closed bathroom door and called his mother. “Mum, I am getting married to Huilan.”
“Huh?” Luan Xiaoping smiles. “So early?”
Dong Xuebing continues. “We planned to get married early next year, but we decided to bring it forward.”
“Good…. My son is getting married. Huilan is a nice girl. You must treat her well.”
“Mum, do you think I don’t know this? I will treat her well.”
“Oh, I will have to go to Beijing.”
“Of course. You must attend my wedding with Uncle Yang.”
“Ok. I know. I will pack my luggage and go over the day after tomorrow.”
Dong Xuebing feels good when he hears his mother so happy. He suddenly remembers something. “Mum, I need to tell you something first.” He lowered his voice. “Have I told you about Huilan’s family? No? Oh, her father is Xie Guobang. He is Beijing City’s Party Secretary, and her grandfather is Chief Secretary Xie. The former Chief Secretary, and you might not have heard of him. You must be prepared. Her family’s situation is quite special.”
Luan Xiaoping: “…….”
“Mum, did you hear me?”
“Why didn’t you tell me she was Beijing City Party Secretary’s daughter earlier?”
“Huh? I have forgotten about it.”
“You…. Ah…. What do they see in our family?”
“They accepted me because I have the charms.” Dong Xuebing boasted.
Luan Xiaoping scolded. “Charming? Why did you wait until now to tell me this? Huilan is lowering herself by getting married to you.”
Dong Xuebing argued. “She is glad that she can get married to me.”
“This is a big issue, and I need to think about it. We will talk about it when I get to Beijing. Sigh…. My son is so lucky.”
“Of course.”
They chatted for a while before hanging up.
Old Yang’s house.
Yang Zhaode walks out of the kitchen after washing the dishes. He saw Luan Xiaoping smiling to herself on the sofa and asked. “What happened? Was that Xiao Bing?”
Luan Xiaoping quickly said. “Old Yang, come over quick. I have something to tell you.”
“What is it?” Yang Zhaode wiped his hands and walked over.
“Xiao Bing is getting married to Huilan.”
“Oh, that’s wonderful. When are they getting married?”
“He said it will be held this month.” Luan Xiaoping looks at him. “He also said Huilan’s father is Xie Guobang.”
Yang Zhaode did not think much about it. “Which Xie Guobang?”
“Beijing City’s Party Secretary.”
Yang Zhaode was startled. “Huh?! Beijing Secretary Xie’s daughter?! Are you sure? I heard Secretary Xie only has one child, and his father is our country’s former Chairman!” He knows more about the Xie family than Luan Xiaoping. This is the famous and influential Xie family! One of the most powerful political families in the country. “Xie Huilan is from the Xie family?!”
“My son said it, and it should be true.”
Yang Zhaode took a deep breath. “This….”
Yang Zhaode had suspected Xie Huilan to have a strong background as she could become a County Mayor at her age and is getting promoted to Deputy Bureau Director soon. But he did not expect her to be from the Xie family.
Ring…. Ring…. Ring….
Luan Xiaoping looked at her phone and answered. “Hello, who is this?”
“Are you my in-laws?” A middle-aged woman asked politely. “I am Han Jing. Huilan’s mother.”
Luan Xiaoping was shocked. “Oh…. Hi….”
Han Jing continues. “Xiao Bing and Huilan had been dating for more than a year, but we had not met. I should have visited you earlier.”
“You are too polite. We should be the ones visiting you.”
Xie family’s mansion.
Xie Huilan’s bedroom.
Xie Huilan walks out of the bathroom with a smile.
Dong Xuebing noticed she had changed her clothes. She is wearing a pair of white heels, skin-colored stockings, a pink skirt, and a floral blouse. Her clothes matched her ring and made her more attractive.
“How is it?” Xie Huilan waved her hand. “Does it look nice on me?”
Xie Huilan praised. “Of course. You look good in everything.”
“Haha…. Did you smear honey on your lips?” Xie Huilan sat on the bed and flicked her hair to her back.
Dong Xuebing quickly move closer to smell her long hair.
Xie Huilan smiles and holds Dong Xuebing’s hand tightly. Two sparkling pink diamond rings touched each other. “Thank you, Xiao Bing. This is the most beautiful present I have ever received. You are full of surprises. Oh, I am thinking of rewarding you today for making me so happy.”
Dong Xuebing sat there waiting.”
Xie Huilan smiled at him and kicked her heels off. She slides her stocking-clad foot against Dong Xuebing’s leg and massages his hand lightly with her thumb.”
She is seducing me!
Dong Xuebing’s blood is boiling. He looks at Xie Huilan’s expression and is impressed. Regardless if she is teasing others, angry, or furious, she could maintain a graceful expression.
“Tell me…. What reward do you want?” Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and asked.
Dong Xuebing will have pushed her down on the bed if her parents are not outside. “We are getting married soon, and I want to hear you calling me Lao Gong.”
Lao Gong (husband).
Dong Xuebing had been waiting for Xie Huilan to call him this.
Xie Huilan looks at him and smiles. “You are not holding back, do you?”
“You are the one who asked me what reward I want.”
“Fine.” Xie Huilan hooked her finger. “Move closer.”
Dong Xuebing moves his ear closer.
Xie Huilan giggled and whispered into Dong Xuebing’s ear. “My little Lao Gong. Hehe…. Are you happy now?”
Dong Xuebing is thrilled. It felt good, and it would be better if she could omit the word ‘little.’
