Chapter 1039: Deputy Minister Jia’s house

Chapter 1047: Deputy Minister Jia’s house

Next day.

Morning.

Dong Xuebing got up early and saw Xie Huilan sleeping beside him.

Xie Huilan woke up from Dong Xuebing’s movement. “Huh?”

Dong Xuebing asked. “What time did you get back yesterday? I waited until I fell asleep.”

Xie Huilan yawned gracefully. “Didn’t I tell you not to wait for me? I reached home around 11 pm.”

Dong Xuebing asked. “Where did you go? Why did you return home so late? Who are you with?”

Xie Huilan laughed. “Are you jealous? When you called, I was still in the Province city, and I must drive at least two to three hours from there.” She rubbed her budging tummy and continued. “I am pregnant with a big tummy. Who do you think will date me? Haha…. I will not return home if I go on a date.”

Dong Xuebing gave him a stare. “You dare?!”

Xie Huilan stretched lazily. “I am hungry. Go and make me breakfast. Oh, it’s only 6 am. Why are you up so early?”

“I need to go out for a while.”

“You are busier than me.”

“This is important to me. I will tell you about it when I return.”

“What about my breakfast? My unborn son is so pitiful.” Xie Huilan smiled and rubbed her tummy. “Your father is so heartless. He does not care about us.”

Dong Xuebing was amused. “When did I not cook for you? Go and wash up while I prepare breakfast.”

“Haha… my hubby is so good to me. Here, let me kiss you.” Xie Huilan pouted her lips.

Dong Xuebing leaned over and kissed her. “Of course. You should be glad you got married to me.”

“Save it.”

“I am good to you. Have you ever met any guy treating his wife so well?”

“Yes. I should praise you. Haha…. You must carry on like this in the future.”

“Continue like this? It will be your turn to serve me after our son is born.”

“Haha…. Sure. I can serve you if you want.”

“…….”

Dong Xuebing will never let her do that. He will not allow Xie Huilan to do household chores like cooking or washing. He was only joking with her.

Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan’s characters were different, and this was how they interacted with each other at home. They liked to tease each other, and he was used to it. She seldom lost her temper despite being overbearing at times.

Breakfast.

Xie Huilan ate a piece of egg and asked. “Where are you going?”

Dong Xuebing replied. “I am going to the Provincial city to do something.”

Xie Huilan nodded. “Call me if you are not returning home tonight.”

“I know.” Dong Xuebing nodded. “Don’t sit in front of your PC for too long at home.”

Most wives would question their husbands about where they were going and when they were coming home.

This is Xie Huilan.

Xie Huilan had never questioned Dong Xuebing. she would not ask if he did not tell her. It seemed she did not care about him, but he knew she wanted to know his whereabouts. She did not ask because she wanted him to have his personal space. Dong Xuebing learned a lot about managing relationships after getting married to her. There was too much to learn, and he was still learning. Having a wife older than him is good, and he has lesser worries. He might be taking care of her daily, but she was the one who had been caring for him.

After breakfast.

Dong Xuebing left and drove towards the Provincial City.

It was okay for him to tell Xie Huilan he would treat a Provincial Organization Department leader. Still, he didn’t want to worry her. He was used to doing things alone and not bringing home his troubles. He will share with her after he succeeds in getting a transfer.

One hour….

Two hours….

Dong Xuebing finally reached the Provincial City.

It was about 10 am.

Dong Xuebing had driven between Beijing and Fen Zhou City several times. He had not been to the Provincial Cities before. This was his first time here.

Provincial Organization Department family quarters.

Dong Xuebing parked his car and walked towards the family quarters.

The compound is not big and does not look majestic. However, the security was tight.

The security guards stopped him when he was entering.

“Who are you looking for?” A guard asked.

Dong Xuebing replied. “I am looking for Organization Department Deputy Minister Jia.”

The guard asked. “Do you have permission to enter?”

Dong Xuebing thought for a while and called the number given to him by Xu Yan.

“Hello?” A middle-aged woman answered.

Dong Xuebing replied. “Hi, is this Minister Jia’s home?”

“Yes. You are?” The woman asked.

“I am here to treat Minister Jia. I am at the family quarter’s guardhouse.”

“Are you the doctor recommended by Xiao Li or Xiao Zhang?”

“It is Chief Zhang who asked me to come.”

“Oh, ok. I will speak to the guard. Please wait for a while.”

The guardhouse’s phone rang after Dong Xuebing hung up. The guard returned to answer and allowed him to enter when he returned.

Dong Xuebing straightened his shirt after entering the compound and walked to the building.

Third story.

Dong Xuebing pressed the doorbell.

Ding dong….

A woman in her fifties opened the door. She looked at Dong Xuebing and asked. “You are?”

Dong Xuebing replied. “I had called earlier.”

The woman was surprised. “You are the doctor recommended by Xiao Zhang?”

“It’s me.” Dong Xuebing replied calmly.

This woman is Minister Jia Miao’s wife. She looked at Dong Xuebing from head to toe and let him enter. “Come in.”

“I will change to slippers.”

“No need.”

“Alright. Thanks.”

A middle-aged man asked from inside the apartment. “Who is it?”

The woman replied. “It’s a doctor recommended by Xiao Zhang.”

Dong Xuebing saw a middle-aged man grimacing inside and knew he must be Minister Jia. “Minister Jia.”

Jia Miao frowned as he looked at Dong Xuebing.

Mrs. Jia stepped aside and let Dong Xuebing enter. “Have a seat first. A doctor is treating Old Jia inside.”

Dong Xuebing waited on the sofa.

Mrs. Jia saw Dong Xuebing was in his twenties and was suspicious. “Which hospital are you from, young man?”

Dong Xuebing replied. “I am not from any hospital.”

“Oh, then you….” Mrs. Jia got more suspicious and frowned.

Dong Xuebing changed the subject. “Can you tell me more about Minister Jia’s condition?”

Mrs. Jia hesitated for a few seconds and said. “It started around two months ago. The pain was mainly on the right side of his head, and it was so painful that he could not sleep. He had to take painkillers to control the pain. This is not a long-term solution, and we have been to several hospitals for checks. The hospitals could not find the cause of it, and the medication did not work. We tried acupuncture, and it did not work as well. The pain was getting worse recently, and painkillers are no longer effective. He could only endure the pain now.”

Dong Xuebing nodded.

It’s difficult to treat migraine, and it’s harder to identify the cause. Most patients had to endure the pain.

Mrs. Jia sat on the sofa slowly while holding her waist.

Dong Xuebing looked at her and asked. “Did you hurt your waist?”

Mrs. Jia sighed. “I had pulled a muscle, and it’s painful when I bend. I am getting old now.”
