Chapter 887: Bringing a baby to work

Chapter 887: Bringing a baby to work

The next day.

Dong Xuebing woke up early in the morning because of a baby crying. Little Qianqian was crying loudly.

“Wa… wa… wa….”

“Mum! The baby is crying….”

“Wa… wa… wa….”

“Yunxuan! Bring the baby out….”

“Wa… wa… wa… wa….”

“Yunxuan…. Yunxuan…. Can you hear me?”

Little Qianqian was crying louder.

Dong Xuebing rubbed his eyes and got up. He looked at the baby girl beside him. He remembered Yunxuan was hospitalized, and his mother was taking care of her at the hospital. They had left his daughter with him. Xie Huilan had left for the south a few days ago, and they were the only ones at home.

Dong Xuebing quickly carried his daughter. She had wet herself, and her diaper was soaked. He quickly threw away the soiled diaper and changed it to a new one.

“Don’t cry….”

“Wa… wa… wa….”

“Ah…. What’s wrong with you?”

“Wa… wa… wa….”

“Are you hungry? Don’t cry…. I will make milk for you.”

Dong Xuebing put down Little Qianqian and rushed out to prepare milk for her. He made a big bottle and stuck it into her mouth. “Here… here….”

Little Qianqian was starving and started sucking the bottle.

Little Qianqian drank the milk for a while and started crying again.

Dong Xuebing panicked. “What’s wrong? Why did you stop drinking your milk? Are you not hungry?”

Little Qianqian kept swinging her little hands and hitting her milk bottle. She just refused to drink and continued crying.

Dong Xuebing touched the milk bottle and realized the milk was too hot. Little Qianqian was burned, and he quickly opened the bottle to cool it. After the milk had cooled, he put it into her mouth. “This should be fine.”

Little Qianqian stopped crying and started drinking.

Dong Xuebing sighed and looked at the time. He went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and bathe. When he was bathing, Little Qianqian started crying again. He immediately rushed out to check on her. She had wet herself again. He wiped her with wet wipes and changed her diapers. After that, he put on a new set of clothes for her, and she looked cute.

Little Qianqian started waving her arms, smiling.

Dong Xuebing yawned. He still wanted to sleep more.

Qu Yunxuan took care of their daughter, and his mother, Luan Xiaoping, helped. Dong Xuebing had never done anything. At most, he helped to change her diaper once in a while. He did not find it challenging to look after a baby, and he agreed to look after Qianqian last night. Just this morning, he was exhausted. He did not know it was so tiring. Babies cry often, and he does not know what they want.

8 am.

It was time to work. What about my daughter?

Dong Xuebing could not send his daughter back to his mother and Qu Yunxuan at the hospital. He also could not leave her alone at home.

Dong Xuebing thought for a while and carried his daughter up. He kissed her forehead and said. “My precious girl, do you want to come to work with Daddy?”

Little Qianqian waved her tiny hands about.

“Oh, you want to come to work with Daddy? You must be a good girl, and don’t be naughty.”

“Ooh… ahh….”

“Haha…. Let’s go!”

Dong Xuebing carried Little Qianqian to his car and drove to work.

The City Party Committee Building. Many people were on their way to work and saw Dong Xuebing’s Porsche. They were from the City Party Committee and City Government, and they started talking among themselves. Dong Xuebing felt weird as he saw everybody looking at him. The doors were closed, and the baby was making noises. He could not hear them from inside the car.

Are they talking about me?

Why is everyone talking about me?

Although Dong Xuebing was used to such looks, he still felt uncomfortable. He got out of his car and went to his office.

It was still early, and not many Discipline Inspection staff were around.

Dong Xuebing gave Little Qianqian a doll and put her on the sofa. “Play by yourself, and don’t put it into your mouth. Daddy is going to have breakfast.

Inspection First Office Zhu Zhu walked past Dong Xuebing’s office.

Dong Xuebing saw her and called her. “Xiao Zhu, ask Director Luo to see me when she comes.”

“Ok.” Zhu Zhu acknowledged and saw the baby on the sofa. She smiled and blinked at the baby. “Director, is this your child?”

Dong Xuebing smiled and nodded. “It’s my cousin’s child and also my daughter. My god-daughter.”

Zhu Zhu thought to herself. Cousin’s child and also your god-daughter? Why is your relationship so messy?

But Zhu Zhu did not ask anything. “Oh, she is a princess. So cute….”

“Haha…. She is naughty and kept crying.”

Zhu Zhu looked at Qianqian and played with her. “Babies are all naughty. I have never seen such a beautiful baby girl. She makes me want to have a baby too. She will be a pretty woman when she grows up.”

Dong Xuebing felt good when he heard others praising his daughter.

Zhu Zhu left, and Dong Xuebing took out the breakfast he had bought.

A few minutes later, someone knocked on the door. Luo Haiting entered with a smile. “Director, are you looking for me?”

Dong Xuebing nodded and asked her to sit after she closed the door. “I bought you tiao and soy bean drink. It’s still hot. Let’s eat together.”

Luo Haiting smiled. “I got up later today and still did not have breakfast. Thank you.”

“Sit. Here.” Dong Xuebing gave her some of his breakfast.

“Wait…. I will just drink the soy bean drink.”

“I bought your share and cannot finish all the food.”

Both sat at Dong Xuebing’s desk to eat their breakfast.

“Sister Luo.” Dong Xuebing looked at Luo Haiting. “Thanks for your help yesterday. Did that incident cause any trouble for you?”

“No.” Luo Haiting waved her hand and smiled. “It was nothing.”

Dong Xuebing thought for a while. “Actually, I asked you to invite….”

Other people might not know Dong Xuebing was involved in this incident, but Luo Haiting knows. She was the one who asked Li Taibo out for lunch, and she also asked Xu Dabing to join them. Wan Sizhao’s incident happened immediately after she went to the bathroom. How can she not know about it? Dong Xuebing would have no way to punish Wan Sizhao, Li Taibo, and Xu Dabing without her help and statement. That’s why Dong Xuebing was very grateful to her.

Luo Haiting interrupted. “Xuebing, even if you don’t ask me to help, I would invite Li Taibo and Xu Dabing to lunch.”

Sister Luo is smart and does not want to know what happened.

Dong Xuebing nodded and raised his cup of Soybean drink. “Anyway, thank you. Here… this is a toast to thank you.”

“Wait…. you are my superior. I should be the one offering a toast.” Luo Haiting smiled.

This incident was over, and since Luo Haiting did not want to know, Dong Xuebing would not make any explanation.

“Here, have a You Tiao.”

“You should also have some.”

“Ok. Ah….”

“Huh? What happened?”

“Nothing. I cut my hand.” Dong Xuebing was using a pair of disposable chopsticks provided by the restaurant. He was cut by the splinters when he gave Luo Haiting a You Tiao.

Luo Haiting held Dong Xuebing’s wrist. “Let me see. Ah, you are bleeding.”

“It’s nothing.” Dong Xuebing thought nothing about it and smiled. This small cut was nothing to him.

Luo Haiting bent over and sucked Dong Xuebing’s finger.

Dong Xuebing was shocked. “Stop….”

Luo Haiting took out his finger. “This is to disinfect your wound.” She said and sucked his finger again.

Dong Xuebing blushed as he felt her finger's warm and wet sensation. Suddenly, he felt Luo Haiting’s tongue against his finger. She did not only lick his wound. She licked his whole finger, from the tip to his knuckle. It was ticklish, and he cleared his throat because of his embarrassment. But he did not stop her as it felt good.

Luo Haiting sucked and licked Dong Xuebing’s finger for a few minutes. Both did not say a word, and it felt awkward.

“Sister Luo, thank you.” Dong Xuebing said.

Luo Haiting looked at Dong Xuebing and smiled. “It’s alright. Stop using that pair of chopsticks. Just use mine. We can share.”

The bleeding had stopped after Luo Haiting’s ‘treatment,’ and Dong Xuebing’s finger was covered with her saliva.
