Chapter 1638
Afternoon.
The office hours were over.
Dong Xuebing and Yin Cheng''an walked ahead downstairs while Han Fei, He Zhou, Sun Zhaobang, and others followed behind, chatting andughing as they reached the ground floor.
"Which car should we take?"
"Probably six or seven of us."
"Director Chen won''t be able to make it, so it''s just us."
"Then two cars should be enough."
"But we''ll need to return from the West Third Ringter. Will it be enough?"
"No problem. Since we all live in the staff quarters, the drivers will drop off whoever.""Sounds good. Let''s go."
"Dong Liang called. He''s waiting at the entrance with all the groceries."
The Second Office staff members boarded Han Fei''s and He Zhou''s car one after the other, all in high spirits. It was a satisfying day for them.
Dong Xuebing was thest to get into the car.
Before he got in, many clerks and cadres leaving work couldn''t help but nce at him. Some even whispered to each other.
"That''s Director Dong from the Second Office."
"That''s him? I couldn''t tell."
"Indeed, he''s making a name for himself this time."
"Not just making a name. It seems he has quite a powerful background."
"Absolutely. I heard people from the General Office are all frowning."
"This all started because Deputy Director Yang didn''t show any restraint. It serves him right."
As the car drove out of thepound, many people outside pointed and whispered about them.
The Second Office staff saw it and felt quite proud. With Director Dong''s support, they finally put the General Affairs Office in their ce.
Outside, Zhang Dongliang was waiting with bags of groceries. After the car arrived, he drove towards the West Mountain.
On the way.
Dong Xuebing was in the car with Yin Cheng''an and Han Fei.
Yin Cheng''an smiled and turned to Dong Xuebing. "Xuebing, we have quite a few people. Is your ce big enough?" Six or seven people. A normal one-bedroom apartment couldn''t fit them.
"It''s big enough," Dong Xuebing replied.
"Alright, that''s good. You don''t live in the staff quarters anymore?" Yin Cheng''an asked.
Dong Xuebing nodded, "I still feel morefortable at home, so I moved back."
Driving the car, Han Fei chuckled, "We''re all hungry. Our stomachs are growling."
Dong Xuebing smiled, "I''ll cookter. I''m quite good at it."
"Oh, Director Dong can cook too?" In surprise, Yin Cheng''an nced at him andughed, "Then we must taste your cooking tonight."
Dong Xuebing said, "No problem."
Han Fei hurriedly said, "I said I''d cook. Director Dong, don''t steal my thunder."
Dong Xuebing chuckled, "Today, I''m the host. You can show off next time."
Amidst the chatter, they arrived at the West Third Ring. Han Fei slowed down the car because she wasn''t familiar with the area.
"Where is it?" Han Fei asked.
He Zhou''s car was following behind them.
Dong Xuebing looked to the left and pointed in a direction. "Over there, see the gate of that residentialplex? Go in and turn right."
"Got it."
The car soon entered a high-end residentialplex. The location was excellent, and the construction was good. A standard two-bedroom apartment here would cost at least four or five million RMB. Han Fei, Yin Cheng''an, and the others were surprised that Dong Xuebing lived in such a high-endmunity. It wouldn''t be cheap even if it were just a small one-bedroom apartment. They couldn''t understand why Dong Xuebing drove a second-hand Xia Li to work.
Just as Han Fei was about to drive towards the distant towers, Dong Xuebing eximed and pointed to the right. "Ah!"
"To the right?"
"Yes, turn right."
"That''s the vi area."
"I know. Turn right. It''s the first one."
Han Fei was taken aback for a moment before she understood. "Ah, you live in a vi?"
Yin Cheng''an was also very surprised. If they didn''t know Dong Xuebing, they might not have been so astonished by his residence. But Dong Xuebing drove a beat-up Xia Li every day. The contrast was too great. It was unheard of for someone to live in a vi and still drive such a car.
The car stopped.
Everyone got out of the car, astonished.
Zhang Dongliang and the others behind them were still unaware and walked up, asking, "Is this Director Dong''s house?"
Han Fei nced at the vi and nodded dazedly. "Uh, Director Dong said it''s here."
Seeing Dong Xuebing go up to open the door, everyone took a sharp breath. This vi had three floors and was in a prime location. It must be worth millions now if not tens of millions. Even somepany bosses couldn''t afford to live here.
The door opened.
Dong Xuebing was puzzled.
"What''s wrong, Director Dong?" He Zhou asked from behind.
"There''s someone inside." Dong Xuebing blinked and invited everyone in.
As they entered, they saw that the vi was lit up, and people were talking inside.
It seemed that the people inside also heard the noise outside. A t-chested beauty suddenly pushed the door open and stepped out. When she saw Dong Xuebing, she was stunned. "Xuebing?"
Dong Xuebing eximed, "Sister Su, what are you doing here?"
Su Jia, Yang Zhaode''s niece, was now considered Dong Xuebing''s sister.
Su Jia smiled and walked up. "We''re having a ss reunion. We couldn''t find a ce, so Aunt Luan gave me the keys. She said you weren''ting, so let me use it casually. Here we are. I was going to let you know, but I knew you had just been transferred and were busy, so I didn''t bother you."
Dong Xuebing understood. "Is Mom and Uncle Yang doing well? I haven''t seen them in ages."
"They''re doing fine." Su Jia nced at the people behind him. "You''ve brought colleagues for dinner. I won''t stay. I''ll tell my friends to go somewhere else."
Dong Xuebing hurriedly said, "No, that won''t do."
Yin Cheng''an also stepped forward. "There is no need to trouble yourself. If it''s not possible,e to my ce."
Dong Xuebing introduced everyone, "This is my sister, Su Jia."
Su Jia also greeted everyone with a smile. She knew that the people Dong Xuebing could interact with now must have quite a high level, so she didn''t neglect anyone.
Han Fei asked, "Then what should we do?"
Su Jia told Dong Xuebing, "Brother, I''ve caused you trouble. Look at themotion. I think I should..." She felt a little embarrassed.
Dong Xuebing smiled, "No, you can''t be polite with me. Your ssmates are my ssmates, too. I must entertain them properly. You all go ahead and eat. We''ll find another ce."
Su Jia said, "But..."
"It''s okay. Don''t worry about it," Dong Xuebing said.
