Chapter 868: Qu Yunxuan in trouble

Evening, around 7 pm. Qu Yunxuan’s apartment.

Dong Xuebing insisted Qu Yunxuan sit on his lap in the living room after dinner. She could not reject him and sat on his lap, blushing. He hugged her from her back and started kissing her neck. His hands reached under her sweater and roamed around.

It felt good.

Dong Xuebing felt Qu Yunxuan’s body warmth on his hands.

Qu Yunxuan slapped Dong Xuebing’s leg. “Stop touching. Stop it.”

Dong Xuebing did not stop. “I missed you badly. Let’s go into the room.”

“I am going out. Let go of me, or I will hit you.” Qu Yunxuan raised her hand to scare Dong Xuebing.

Dong Xuebing was puzzled. “Where are you going?”

Qu Yunxuan gave Dong Xuebing a stare. “Let go of me, and I will tell you. Now!”

“Fine….” Dong Xuebing removed his hands from under the sweater and moved them to her butt.

Qu Yunxuan pinched Dong Xuebing’s nose. “You are the death of me.”

“Haha…. Tell me where you are going. I can send you there.” Dong Xuebing did not remove his hands from her butt.

Qu Yunxuan smiled. “I got to leave at 7.40 pm. I had made a reservation at a restaurant. I am treating someone to dinner because I need a favor at work. I cooked for you today because I know you have nowhere to go for dinner.”

“Who are you treating?”

“You don’t know him.”

“You should at least tell me if that person is a man or woman.”

“He is a man. What’s wrong?”

Dong Xuebing laughed. “Who is he?”

Qu Yunxuan held Dong Xuebing’s hand. “Wan Sizhao. Have you heard of him?”

Dong Xuebing thought for a while. “This name is familiar.”

“He is our Fen Zhou City Party Secretary Wan Fanglei’s nephew. Because of his Uncle, Wan Sizhao has a strong network. I got to know him a couple of days before.”

The City’s No. 1’s nephew? How can he not have a strong network?”

Dong Xuebing was curious. “Why are you treating Secretary Wan’s nephew to dinner?”

Qu Yunxuan replied. “It is because of my TV station job. The two main news anchors fell sick a while ago, and I replaced them for two days. After they recovered, I was sent back to my administrative job in the backend. It felt boring.”

Dong Xuebing understood. “You want to be a news anchor?”

Qu Yunxuan nodded. “This is my plan. I feel I am suitable for this job, and I like it. When I wanted to set up my own business in the past, but after my business became successful, it felt boring after some time. That’s why I sold the company. Now, I am interested in becoming a news anchor. Haha….”

“Then why are you looking for him? I can help.”

“You and Huilan are newly transferred here, and you all don’t know about the situation. It’s not good for you to owe favors to anyone, and I don’t want to trouble you all.”

“What trouble? Your problem is my problem.”

Qu Yunxuan laughed. “I can settle it on my own. Stay out of it.”

Dong Xuebing knew Aunt Xuan was stubborn and did not continue. “It’s dark, and I worry for you to meet him alone. How is that Wan Sizhao’s reputation? What if he has ulterior motives?”

“How do I know what he is thinking? I had only met him once.”

“No…. I will accompany you.”

“The restaurant is in the middle of a busy street, and I will not drink. It will be fine.” Qu Yunxuan looked at her watch and stood up. “Alright. Stay at home and wait for me.”

“Are you letting me stay here tonight?”

“Up to you.”

Dong Xuebing smiled. “Alright. Just call me when anything happens.”

Qu Yunxuan took out a few cartons of Zhong Hua Cigarettes. She must prepare gifts when asking for favors.

Dong Xuebing lit a cigarette after Aunt Xuan left and stood at the window. He looked at her walking out of the building.

Suddenly, an Audi drove in slowly.

The car stopped beside Qu Yunxuan, and a man in his early thirties came out.

Qu Yunxuan was surprised. “Why are you here?”

“I am here to fetch you.” That man laughed. “Come in.”

Qu Yunxuan smiled. “I am supposed to treat you to dinner. How can I trouble you to come and fetch me?”

“It’s on my way.” That man opened the door for Qu Yunxuan. “Please….”

“Thank you.” Qu Yunxuan got into the front passenger seat.

When Qu Yunxuan got into the car, that man placed his hand on her lower back to help her. “Slowly.”

Qu Yunxuan replied. “Thank you.”

That man let go of his hand and closed the door before getting into the driver's seat. The Audi quickly drives out of the compound.

Dong Xuebing saw and heard everything. That man should be the City’s Party Secretary’s nephew, Wan Sizhao. He felt sore when he saw that man touching her lower back.

After smoking, Dong Xuebing went into Qu Yunxuan’s bedroom to rest and wait for her.

Half an hour….

One hour….

Two hours….

Dong Xuebing had fallen asleep; it was almost 9 pm when he woke up. He looked at the time and went out to the living room. Qu Yunxuan was not back.

Why is the dinner so long?

The restaurant is not far from here.

Dong Xuebing got worried and called Aunt Xuan.

Ring… ring… ring…. No one answered.

Dong Xuebing frowned and quickly went out. He walked out of the TV Station Family Quarters to his car. He was going to the restaurant to look for Qu Yunxuan.

When Dong Xuebing fired up his car, his phone rang. It was calling from Qu Yunxuan’s Beijing apartment.

“Hello?” Dong Xuebing answered. “Mum?”

Qu Yunxuan’s mother screamed into the phone. “Hurry! Go to Liu Yang Restaurant! Something happened to Yunxuan!”

Dong Xuebing was shocked. “What did you say? What happened to Aunt Xuan?”

Qu Yunxuan’s mother cried and shouted. “The Public Security Bureau called and said Yunxuan had fallen out from Liu Yang Restaurant’s fourth floor. She might not make it!”

Dong Xuebing exploded.
