Chapter 523 – Born to be a trouble maker!
Dong Xuebing was reading about the work procedures of the Subdistrict Office when his office phone rang.
“Hello.” Dong Xuebing answered. “I’m Dong Xuebing.”
The call is from the reception office. “Director, someone is looking for you.”
“…. Who is it?”
“She says her surname is Su. It’s a lady.”
“Her surname is Su? Is she downstairs now?”
“Yes.”
“Let her come upstairs. I will be waiting in my office.”
The main building is the service lobby, and there are no restrictions for people to enter. But the side building is the offices of the Working Party Committee and the Office Department. Not anyone can enter. Visitors are required to register at the reception, and permission must be granted before they can enter. Some reporters had secretly entered the Offices previously, and the Office had to take precautions.
After a while, Dong Xuebing hears sounds of high heels outside his office.
The door opens, and Su Jia appears with a bright smile. She is wearing a pastel color office attire and seems to have added padding to her flat chest. They look bigger, and she is carrying a piece of small luggage.
“Xuebing, you didn’t expect me to appear, right?”
“Oh.” Dong Xuebing walks over. “Why are you here, Sis? I didn’t expect it’s you.”
Su Jia puts down her luggage and giggle. “It’s so hard to meet you now. You are a high-ranking Official, and I still need to get permission first.”
Dong Xuebing laughed. “It’s the same for all Subdistrict Office. This is because we want to keep reporters out.”
Su Jia rolled her eyes. “Hmph! You are trying to take precautions against me.”
“You are a TV station host, and it’s not counted.” Dong Xuebing poured a cup of tea for her.
“Let me do it.” Su Jia tried to get the teapot from him but failed. “I am transferred to the City now and is considered half a reporter now. I had just got off the long-distance bus from Yan Tai County and will start officially tomorrow.” She had a short pause and continue. “Feng Zhou Daily News Agency, and is under the City’s Publicity Department. It’s my Uncle who helped me get this transfer.”
Su Jia’s Uncle is the City Party Committee Organization Department, Yang Zhaode.
Dong Xuebing raised his brows. “Congratulations on your promotion.”
Su Jia laughed. “How can I be compared to you? I am only a small Leader in the News Editorial Department. I still have to thank you for helping me get the internship at Xin Hua News Agency. Without that experience, I will not get this promotion. My Uncle wants me to gain some experience in the newspaper agency before going to a TV station. The TV station’s environment is more complicated than the newspaper agency. Haha… are you free the day after tomorrow? I want to give you a treat after I settled down. I know you are busy today as you had just arrived here.”
“We can have dinner anytime, as we are both working in the City.”
“Alright. I will call you again. But it will not be a big feast, as I spent too much in Beijing.”
“It’s a feast even if you treat me to some meat skewers.”
“What meat skewers? Your Sister is not this stingy! I will treat you to hotpot! Haha…”
Both are not outsiders and did not hold back while chatting.
Dong Xuebing’s mood got better after meeting Su Jia. Fen Zhou Daily is one of the top three news agencies in the City. He is new in this area and needs more connections and friends. She had impressed Dong Xuebing, as her Uncle, Yang Zhaode, is the City’s Party Committee Member. Still, she did not reveal their relationship to others. He knows it’s not because she wants to keep low. All high-ranking leaders have authority and rivals. Their relatives might enjoy privileges but also will be targeted by their rivals. This is also Xie Huilan’s advice to him.
Dong Xuebing also wants to stay low when he was transferred here. That’s why he parked his car at a basement carpark in Nanshan District and kept his 2 million RMB Patek Philippe watch. He wants to get familiar with the new working environment and the different connections and backings first.
After chatting for a while, Su Jia suddenly laughs. “I heard someone had tried to provoke you yesterday. It was your first day, right?”
Dong Xuebing was surprised. “How do you know?”
“I overheard two Staff members chatting about you when I enter the Subdistrict Office’s compound. They are talking about drinking at the dinner yesterday. What happened?” Su Jia laughed. “Who is it that tried to provoke you?”
Dong Xuebing replied. “Some of our Staff insisted on drinking with me during yesterday’s welcome dinner, and I drunk a bit of alcohol with them.”
Su Jia had experienced a similar incident when she was transferred to Yan Tai County TV station. Furthermore, Dong Xuebing is young and is holding a high rank. Many people will be jealous of him.
Su Jia curiously asked. “How much did you drink?”
“…. Errr… one box.”
“One box?” Su Jia is puzzled. “You finished one box of beer by yourself, and your subordinates are all drunk? How come I didn’t know you can drink so well?”
Dong Xuebing paused for a second. “It’s Jin Liu Fu.”
“Huh?” Su Jia is shocked. “A box of Baijiu?!”
Dong Xuebing laughed. “I am in my top form recently, and my alcohol tolerance had increased.”
Su Jia is speechless. That’s a box of alcohol, and no matter how well you feel, it’s not possible to digest so much alcohol. But after a few seconds, she laughs. “Xuebing, I notice you are a trouble maker. You can create trouble wherever you go. No wonder everyone in the Subdistrict Office looks like they had just seen a ghost. But this is because they don’t know you well. They will not be surprised if they know about your feats in Yan Tai County.”
Dong Xuebing laughed. “I shall treat this as a compliment.”
“Yes. It’s a compliment.” Su Jia giggled. “I know you are born to be under the spotlight. Even if you are transferred to Inner Mongolia’s Maritime Administration, you will still be a prominent figure there. Let alone at this Subdistrict Office.”
“Huh? Mongolia has sea?”
“Haha… no, but I am sure you can create one for them!”
