<h4>Chapter 1038: Sister Xu and Sister Yu</h4>


    Afternoon.


    After 5 pm.


    Dong Xuebing drove the Discipline Inspection car to Xu Yan’s apartment after leaving his office.


    Ring… ring… ring…. Dong Xuebing’s phone rang.


    It was Yu Meixia this time.


    Dong Xuebing answered. “Hello, Meixia.”


    “Xuebing…. you…. Where are you?”


    “I have returned to work and am driving back now.”


    Yu Meixia cautiously replied. “I…. I saw it on the news. Mayor Xie had gone to the Provincial Government for a meeting. Is she not home today?”


    “Yes. She will be away for two days.”


    “Then…. Can I look for you? I can prepare dinner for you.”


    “Ah? Err….”


    “I… I am afraid no one is around to take care of you.”


    “I got a dinner invitation from a former leader. I am going to her ce for dinner now.”


    “Then… then forget it. It’s fine…. I…. I will hang up now.”


    “Wait…. don’t hang up first. How about you go with me?”


    “I…. how can I? I…. It’s not right.”


    “Let me ask Sister Xu first. Wait for my call.”


    Dong Xuebing hung up and slowed down. This was Yu Meixia’s first time saying she wanted to meet him, and he could not refuse her. He knows she misses him and feels that Xu Yan could take care of her if they knew each other. Sister Yu’s parents are the top leaders in Fen Zhou City’s Power nt and ICBC. They could help Sister Xu in her work. Having dinner together should be fine. However, his rtionship with both of them is a bit…. He decided to ask Sister Xu first.


    Dong Xuebing called Xu Yan. “Sister Xu, I would like to bring a friend along…. Female… Err…. She is a close friend and….”


    “Sure. Bring her along.”


    “You sure? Will it be alright?”


    “It’s alright. I had prepared lots of food.”


    “Don’t trouble yourself. Let’s eat outside.”


    It’s okay if Dong Xuebing is going alone. But he was bringing Sister Yu along, and it’s not good to trouble Xu Yan.


    However, Xu Yan said. “You brat…. Are you saying the restaurant’s food is better? Huh?”


    “Ah… no…. Your food is the best.”


    “Haha…. Just bring your friend along. I have prepared the ingredients and will start cooking when you arrive.”


    “Alright. I will call her now. Oh, don’t start cooking now. We will help.”


    “Alright. Juste.”


    “Sure.”


    Dong Xuebing called Yu Meixia after hanging up. “Where are you now? I will pick you.”


    Yu Meixia replied. “I…. you all should go ahead.”


    “I had told Sister Xu. Are you at home? I will wait for you in your lobby.”


    Dong Xuebing knew it was not suitable for him to bring Yu Meixia instead of his wife. But he still did this because Yu Meixia differs from Geng Yuehua or Qu Yunxuan. He felt Yu Meixia and Xu Yan could get along well because of their age, and he was not afraid of saying the wrong things in front of them.


    A whileter.


    Nan Shan District. State Security Bureau family quarters.


    Dong Xuebing and Yu Meixia got out of the car and walked upstairs. Her nervousness amused him. “Why do you look like you are going to war? We are only having dinner, and Sister Xu is my former leader. We are close, and I think she knows your parents. Both of you can take this opportunity to know each other.” He knew Yu Meixia was not used to meeting strangers.


    Upstairs.


    Dong Xuebing pressed the doorbell.


    Ding dong… ding dong…. The door opened.


    Xu Yan smiled in her apron. “You all are here.”


    “We are here for dinner, Sister Xu. Haha….” Dong Xuebing joked.


    Xu Yan nodded to Yu Meixia and stepped aside. “Come in.”


    Dong Xuebing and Yu Meixia entered the apartment, but thetter was awkward. She stood in the hallway and did not move.


    Dong Xuebing quickly introduced them. “Sister Yu, she is our City State Security Bureau Chief Xu Yan. Sister Xu is my good friend, Yu Meixia. I wonder if you know her parents. Her father is our City’s Power Station General Manager, Liu Chenlong, and her mother is our City’s ICBC branch manager, Qian Lihua. Sister Xu is a few years older than you. You can address her as Sister Xu.”


    Yu Meixia quickly greeted Xu Yan. “Nice to meet you, Sister Xu.”


    Xu Yan looked at Yu Meixia in surprise. “You are Manager Qian’s daughter?! We worked with ICBC a lot, and I had dinner with herst month. No wonder I find you familiar. You look like your mother.” She looked at Dong Xuebing. “Oh, I remember you asked me to help your friend look for her missing parents. Is she that friend? You found your parents?!”


    Yu Meixia nodded. “Thanks to Xuebing.”


    Dong Xuebing replied modestly. “Don’t mention it.”


    Xu Yanughed. “This brat is good to all pretty women.”


    Dong Xuebing blushed and cleared his throat. “Ah… it smells delicious. Are you cooking now? Let me see.”


    “Don’t try to run away.” Xu Yanughed and turned to Yu Meixia. “Let him prepare dinner, and we will continue chatting here. What tea do you like?”


    “I am fine. I… I….”


    “You are Xiao Dong’s friend, and you are my friend. Don’t feel awkward.”


    Dong Xuebing closed the kitchen door and started preparing dinner.


    Five minutes….


    Ten minutes….


    Twenty minutes….


    Dong Xuebing waited for a while, and no one entered the kitchen to help. He could not go out and ask Sister Xu or Sister Yu to cook and had to do everything himself. Finally, the food was prepared, and he took out the dishes.


    Living room.


    Xu Yan and Yu Meixia were chatting happily.


    “Suster Xu, are you really in your forties?! How is this possible?”


    “Don’t say that. You also don’t look like your age.”


    “But you look much younger than me.”


    “I envy yourplexion. I wish I could be as fair as you.”


    They chatted happily over tea, and Dong Xuebing was surprised to see Sister Yu talking so much to someone she had met for the first time. It was right to bring her along. She got to expand her social circle.


    Dong Xuebing smiled. “Dinner is ready!”


    Xu Yan looked at Dong Xuebing and smiled. “We had a good chat with Meixia and forgotten about dinner. Haha…. Sorry to make you cook for us.”


    Dong Xuebing replied. “It’s fine. Just don’t say my food is not nice.”


    Yu Meixia quickly went over to help Dong Xuebing. “Let me help.”


    Xu Yanughed and got up. “I will get the alcohol. What drinks do you want?”


    Dong Xuebing paused for a second. “You…. Let’s not drink today.”


    Xu Yan replied. “After that day, I had not taken a drop of alcohol. But this is a celebration for you. The alcohol is for Meixia and you. I will drink tea instead.”


    Yu Meixia waved her hand. “I…. I don’t drink.”


    “Then Xiao Bing will drink alone. I got red and white wine here.” Xu Yan said. “Oh, someone gave me a bottle of concentrated Er Guo Tou. I don’t know about alcohol, and I will let you taste it today. Drink some and bring back the rest.”


    Dong Xuebingughed. “Sure! Thank you.”


    Xu Yanughed. “When did you be so polite with me?”


    Dong Xuebing blushed as he remembered what had happened between them. He was only polite in front of others and had never restrained himself when they were in bed.


    Dinner started.


    The three of them sat at the table.


    But Xu Yan and Yu Meixia were not interested in the food. They continued their chat earlier. They were around the same age, and their child was around the same age. They shared about their children and talked about their results.


    “How are your daughter’s yearend results?”


    “I don’t need to worry about Qianqian’s result. She got more than 90 for all her subjects.”


    “Your girl is smart. My son only passed a few subjects, and I am ashamed to talk about the rest.”


    Dong Xuebing felt like an outsider and could not join their conversation. He ate and drank alone while admiring the two beautiful, voluptuous women.


    Beautiful….


    Dong Xuebing enjoyed his dinner even when he was eating alone.


    Of course. It would be better if he could hug both of them while eating. But he knew it was impossible.
