Power and Wealth

It is a starry night.

Xie Huilan is taking a shower in a bathroom of a bedroom on the third floor. The bathroom's walls use full-height frosted glass. Dong Xuebing, who is sitting on the bed, can see the silhouette of a slim woman behind the glass.

She's so seductive.

Sister Xie is too skinny.

Dong Xuebing is blushing, and his heart is racing. Although he knows it is impossible to sleep with Xie Huilan before their marriage, he still gets under the covers to wait for her.

Ring… ring… ring…. A phone rang.

The ringtone is from Sister Xie's handbag.

Sister Xie is a County Mayor, and Dong Xuebing knows she cannot miss any phone calls. Unwillingly, he got off the bed and took out Xie Huilan's phone from her handbag. It is an unknown number, and it seems to be calling from Hebei Province. He walked over to the bathroom and knocked on the door.

"Sister Xie…. Sister Xie…." Dong Xuebing shouted.

The water stopped. "Hehe… What is it?"

"Your phone is ringing. Open the door." Dong Xuebing waved the phone.

"I think it is my mother who is calling. Help me answer and tell her I am not going back tonight."

"It's not Auntie Han. It is an unknown number which is not saved in your phone."

The woman's silhouette got closer to the door, and she opened it. A gust of sweet-smelling shampoo and body foam fragrance gush out together with some water vapor.

A hand sticks out. "Pass me my phone. Thank you."

Dong Xuebing blushed. Although Xie Huilan did not open the door wide, she is naked behind the door. Her other hand is sweeping her hair back as if she is walking down the streets. He always wanted to touch her, and he touched her several times when they were swimming. But when she is naked in front of him, he doesn't dare to look at her or make any moves. He quickly passes her phone.

Xie Huilan smiles and closes the door.

"Hello? Chief Huang? Oh…. What is it? Yes…. I am not in the County. How about another day?"

Dong Xuebing did not listen to Xie Huilan's conversation and returned to the queen-size bed. He lit a cigarette and admired the silhouette behind the frosted glass. It's blurry, but he can see the outline of her body.

Five minutes….

Ten minutes….

Twenty minutes….

The bathroom door opens. "Xiao Bing, can you help me to dry my hair?"

Dong Xuebing is speechless. I have been waiting under the covers for so long, and you want me to dry your hair? "The hairdryer is over there. Why do you still need me to help you?"

"You had dried my hair previously, and I like it. Hehe…"

Dong Xuebing got off the bed again. "Alright… alright…. You are always ordering me around."

"If you are tired, then forget it."

"I did not say that. Sigh…. I think I am going to get married to an Empress." Dong Xuebing grumbled jokingly. He switched on the ventilator to clear the misty bathroom and was about to help Xie Huilan comb her hair. "Ah… why are you not wearing your pants?" He got shocked.

"I am going to sleep. Why should I wear back my pants?"

"But you should still put on something."

"There is no one else at home. Haha…"

Xie Huilan is only wearing dark green underwear with rose prints on it with her white blouse. Most of her legs are exposed.

Dong Xuebing tried his best to take his eyes off her legs. "Oh, who called just now?"

"Huang Shizhong." Xie Huilan stroked her wet hair.

"Huang Shizhong? Oh…. It's the new County Ministry of Education's Chief."

Xie Huilan smiled and nodded. "They are at my apartment and want to visit me with his wife."

"Oh, is he trying to join your faction?"

"No. He visited Xiang Daofa yesterday."

"He is not sincere since he visited Xiang Daofa first. Just ignore him."

"Haha…. It will be chaos if everyone is like you."

Dong Xuebing continued to comb and dry Xie Huilan's hair with the hairdryer. She closed her eyes to enjoy this feeling.

They left the bathroom after ten minutes.

Xie Huilan yawned and looked tired. She got under the covers and glanced at Dong Xuebing.

Dong Xuebing blinked and also got into the bed shamelessly.

Xie Huilan is amused. "You think you can get into my bed because you had dried my hair?"

"I can't?"

"What do you think?"

"I think it's fine."

Xie Huilan shook her head and smiled. She took out a book about economics from her bag and started reading.

Are you trying to ignore me?"

Dong Xuebing's heart skipped a beat, and she knew she would not chase him out of the room. He adjusted the covers and laid down, using Xie Huilan's legs as pillows.

"I will sleep first."

Xie Huilan did not reply and continued to read her book.

No rejection. This means Xie Huilan is allowing Dong Xuebing to sleep with her. This is the first time Dong Xuebing is sleeping on the same bed. He is very excited.

After a while, Dong Xuebing felt a hand in his hair, massaging his scalp gently.

Slowly, Dong Xuebing drifted to sleep.
