Chapter 515 – Departure!

Chapter 515 – Departure!

Evening, 6 pm.

The County Mayor’s office.

Xie Huilan finally returns from her meeting.

“Why are you so late?” Dong Xuebing looks at his watch. “You must also take care of your health while you work.”

Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and rubbed her shoulders on the sofa. She said in a hoarse voice. “Get… cough… get me a glass of water.”

“Look at you… You are going to lose your voice.” Dong Xuebing quickly pours a glass of water for her.

“Thank you.” Xie Huilan took a few sips and smiled. “I had been talking the whole afternoon, and my throat is burning. Haha…” Xie Huilan saw Dong Xuebing was about to nag at her, she continued. “What’s wrong? Are you going to nag at me? I am fine. I know how to take care of myself. Haha… Let’s not talk about this anymore. I was in the meeting the whole day and didn’t have the time to call you. Do you know about your transfer?”

Dong Xuebing nodded. “I heard about it.”

Xie Huilan took another sip of water and said. “Nan Shan District is further away from our County, and Counties and Districts do not have much interaction. I am new here and do not have any connections with them. So, I cannot help you much. It will be a new environment, a new situation, and a great challenge for you. You are famous in our County, but no one knows who you are there, and they will not give you face. Do you understand what I am saying?”

Dong Xuebing is famous in Yan Tai County. It has to do with his outstanding performance and his relationship with Mayor Xie. Who dares not to give the Mayor’s boyfriend face? But he will be alone in Nan Shan District, and it won’t be easy to carry out his duties there. Also, districts and the City Government’s relationships are more complicated. Anyone there might have backings within the City Government, and his status as Mayor Xie’s boyfriend is useless. He has to depend on himself.

“Yes. I know.”

“Alright. I shall not talk about this in case you find me bothersome. Haha.”

“I won’t find you bothersome. I can’t bear to leave you.” Dong Xuebing walked behind Xie Huilan and massaged her shoulders. “I will miss you if I don’t see you.”

Xie Huilan turns and smiled. “Did you smear honey on your lips?”

Dong Xuebing laughed. “Yes.”

“Really?” Xie Huilan looks at him. “Let me taste it and see how sweet it is.”

Dong Xuebing looks at the entrance and bends over to kiss her.

But Xie Huilan avoided him and laughed. “This is my office. Don’t do such things.”

“You are the one who wanted to taste it.”

“I didn’t say I want to taste it now. Haha…”

Dong Xuebing refused to accept this excuse and insisted on kissing her. Both played around for a while until Xie Huilan said. “Alright… alright.” He pointed to his lips and moved nearer. She smiled and kissed his lips. Two seconds later, their tongues were swirling.

Xie Huilan moved back and smile. “You taste of cigarettes. You should cut down on smoking.”

Dong Xuebing took a deep breath. “Huilan, should I remain in Yan Tai County?”

“You are the one who wanted to leave, and now you want to stay. Haha… it’s confirmed, and you must leave.”

“Sigh… I’m afraid you can’t bear to leave me.”

Xie Huilan laughed and patted his hand. “You think too highly of yourself. Hahaha… alright. I will miss you. Don’t talk about such things. It’s not like we will not meet each other in the future. Driving from Nan Shan District to Yan Tai County is faster than driving from Beijing to here. You can come back anytime you want.”

“Then you must take care of yourself and must not skip your meals.”

“I know.”

Dong Xuebing’s mother had gone to teach in the City, and Sister Yu will be leaving with him. Aunt Xuan is also thinking of working in the City, and only Xie Huilan is left in Yan Tai County. He sighed and took out his cigarette.

When he was about to light it, Xie Huilan took out a lighter from her desk and lit it for him.

Dong Xuebing was stunned. This is the first time Xie Huilan lights his cigarette.

Xie Huilan patted his hand. “The official transfer papers will be out in a few days. Take this week to bid goodbye to your friends. Haha… but don’t think of going out today. You must accompany me for dinner.”

“Of course…”

Dong Xuebing is more than willing to be with Xie Huilan.

……

Dong Xuebing has been preparing for his departure for the next few days.

Dinner, lunch, dinner, lunch…

Other than having meals, there’s nothing new. Dong Xuebing had treated everyone he knows to a meal. Sometimes, he even gathered several groups together to have dinner. Other than having meals together, he can also invite them to saunas. But no one dares to visit those places with him, as they are afraid Xie Huilan would mind.

As the date of departure is nearing, Dong Xuebing invited a few County Leaders.

For example, Deputy Party Secretary Cao Xupeng, Commission for Discipline Inspection’s Secretary Duan Zhengan and his family, Head of People’s Armed Forces Xiong Zhiyong and his family.

Xie Huilan had attended the dinner as his girlfriend, and Dong Xuebing suggested it. These three County Party Committee members are close to him, but they are from Xiang Daofa’s faction. He hopes to help her to get closer to them. Even if they do not switch to her faction, it will let Xiang Daofa’s imaginations run wild.

Dong Xuebing is busier as the date of his departure gets nearer.

Dong Xuebing has feelings for Yan Tai County and felt sad to be transferred away.

Dong Xuebing’s official transfer order was issued to him on 2nd June.

The Organization Department officially appoints comrade Dong Xuebing to be Fen Zhou City, Nan Shan District, Guang Ming Sub-district Office Party Secretary, and Director.
