Chapter 45 Sister, I Love You

It was already past 11 PM when Li Huan returned home. Fei Fei would usually be asleep by then, so after helping her shower, Li Huan let her go straight to bed and then went downstairs. She had a lot to say to Zhang Bing.

In the living room, the TV was on, but Zhang Bing was already slumped on the sofa, fast asleep. Li Huan felt a pang of heartache seeing this: this man worked so hard; he hadn't had a moment's rest in almost a month since taking office. Every night in Beijing, he was still awake at 2 AM. He must be exhausted, and yet he collapsed here without even taking a shower. Li Huan couldn't bear it and gently shook him, finally waking Zhang Bing from his slumber.

"Ah, Sister Huan, I'm sorry, I was just about to rest and have a cup of tea, but I fell asleep without realizing it." Zhang Bing, groggily waking, saw drool still on his lips, smiled like a child, and quickly wiped it away.

"Go take a shower first. You've had a long day. A shower will make you feel better. I have something to tell you." Li Huan gently wiped away the drool from his mouth. "I'll brew your medicine first, so you can drink it later."

As Li Huan took out the pile of Chinese medicine, she couldn't help but shed tears again. This man was too reckless. The scene of him protecting her at the airport was still vivid in her mind. At that time, she felt no fear, only a thrill of being protected and moved. But she didn't expect him to be so badly injured. Otherwise, she would have taken him to the hospital for a checkup no matter what! Li Huan secretly made up her mind that she would take better care of him in the future. This man was too cruel to her. He was so badly injured but said he was fine. He was so tired from work but still had a smile on his face.

When the two finished showering and sat down in the living room, the medicine was almost ready. Looking at the bowl of dark, pungent Chinese medicine on the table, Zhang Bing's face contorted in a grimace. She shook Li Huan's arm somewhat shamelessly, "Sister Huan, there's too much! It looks so bitter!"

"Stop talking nonsense! Good medicine tastes bitter, don't you know? Hurry up and finish it all, and do this every day from now on!" Li Huan found it somewhat amusing. Girls were always afraid of bitter Chinese medicine; she hadn't expected men to be like that too.

"Good sister, I'm scared just looking at it. You're always so good to your little brother, why don't you take a sip first and set an example? I promise I'll finish it in one go!" Zhang Bing still looked pitiful, but a sly smile crept across her lips.

Li Huan also found the liquid to be very bitter and unpalatable, making it difficult to swallow. He knew it would be a problem for Zhang Bing, who would have to drink it every day. He figured he could appease him by using Zhang Bing's method, at least making him feel better. "It's settled then,"

Li Huan said, "I'll only drink one sip. You have to finish it in one go every day from now on, no wasting a drop." "No problem, I promise!" Zhang Bing's smile widened. Seeing Li Huan frown and swallow the liquid with difficulty, he finally burst into laughter. When the bewildered Li Huan handed him the bowl, he suppressed his laughter and drank it all in one gulp, feeling no discomfort whatsoever. He smeared the bottom of the bowl, still looking at Li Huan with a smug expression.

Li Huan, who had sensed something was off from Zhang Bing's expression while drinking the medicine, finally realized she'd been tricked. Her younger brother was playing a prank; he didn't care about the bitter medicine at all, but only wanted to see her make a fool of herself. It was just like the games they used to play when their own brother was alive. Back then, Li Feng often teased her like this, and she would chase after him demanding revenge. In the end, Li Feng, feeling sorry for his sister, would deliberately let her grab him and beg for mercy, letting her hit him on the back of the head or pinch him a few times. The siblings' bond deepened through these games. But now, Li Feng—Li Huan lost in thought, tears of regret streaming down her face.

Zhang Bing, realizing he'd made his sister cry, quickly ran to her side, begging for forgiveness, "Sister Huan, I'm sorry! I just wanted to joke with you, to make you laugh. I'm sorry, it was my fault! I won't do it again!" He kept pulling out tissues to wipe away her tears, his face filled with fear. To his surprise, Li Huan's longing for her younger brother, whom he had indirectly caused to die, intensified upon hearing these words. She cried even harder, suddenly throwing herself into his arms and sobbing uncontrollably. Zhang Bing had no choice but to hold her tightly, letting her cry it out. He had initially thought his prank had upset her, but knowing Li Huan's personality, he knew it couldn't be something he had done wrong. She must have been remembering some unhappy memories. The elders often said that in such situations, one must release all pent-up emotions, otherwise it wouldn't be good for one's health. Therefore, he didn't try to stop her, but instead gently stroked her back to soothe her emotions.

After a long while, Li Huan finally stopped crying, blushing as she glanced at him. Then, she tightened her grip on his waist. "It's all your fault, you brat! You always make your sister cry. Are you satisfied now?" Helpless, Zhang Bing could only endure this undeserved misfortune with a tearful face, while also pretending to beg for mercy in great pain. "I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong, please be merciful, sister!"

Seeing his pitiful appearance, Li Huan finally laughed. Feeling relaxed, her mood naturally improved. She took off her shoes and lay down on the sofa, resting her head on Zhang Bing's lap. "Since you know you were wrong, I'll borrow your body to be my pillow for a while. Consider it a way of showing respect for the hard work I put into making your medicine earlier, hmph!" Since deciding to only be the older sister, Li Huan no longer wore pajamas in front of Zhang Bing. Tonight, she wore a long-sleeved thermal undershirt, not afraid of being exposed.

But Zhang Bing felt differently. The allure of a beautiful woman after a bath is always strong, especially since it was Li Huan, with whom he had had countless ambiguous encounters. The woman's faint fragrance filled his nostrils, intoxicating him. To make Li Huan comfortable, he held her in his arms, one hand supporting her head, the other around her waist. Her full breasts were incredibly tempting, and his hand involuntarily began to slowly explore the smooth skin of her waist. Li Huan blushed and glanced at him, probably finding the massage pleasant, so she didn't stop him and even praised him, "Hmm, that's a good brother. You've had a long day, and you know to give yourself a massage." Then she closed her eyes and enjoyed it. "By the way, I wanted to ask you, do you have a better understanding of what happened at the airport today?"

"I called Director Liu after I got back. After our analysis, we think Deng Chunguang wasn't lying." Seeing that Li Huan wanted him to massage her, Zhang Bing continued to knead her waist, making Li Huan groan with pleasure.

"So what are you going to do? Regardless of Deng Chunguang's motives, I think he's right about one thing: 'Eliminate evil completely.' That's an ironclad rule in officialdom. You have to remember that, otherwise you'll suffer the consequences, like what happened today."

Zhang Bing was still a little scared thinking about the airport scene, not because she was worried about herself, but because there were three women with him at the time. If they were implicated because of her, it would be an unforgivable sin. "Yes, I think so too, but judging from the situation, it seems difficult to completely bring them down. They have that Vice Mayor Lin as their backer; I guess we'll have to get your old man's help."

Li Huan rolled her eyes at him. "You're only speaking up now? I've been waiting for so long! I told you not to be so polite with your sister, I'll do everything I can for you!" She paused, a hint of hesitation on her face, before continuing, "Xiao Bing, getting my grandfather to help you is definitely no problem, and even if you went to ask him yourself, he'd agree immediately!" Seeing Zhang Bing's confusion, she continued, "Weren't you surprised by my parents' expressions when you visited my house last time? Now I'll tell you, you look so much like my deceased younger brother, Li Feng, so we often mistook you for him." Speaking of Li Feng, Li Huan's voice was filled with sadness.

"Oh! — No wonder, I understand!" Zhang Bing hadn't expected this answer, so it took her a long time to react. She thought, "No wonder Sister Huan was so enthusiastic when she first met me. I was so confused and anxious then, afraid there was some ulterior motive. Heh, so that's how it is." Zhang Bing finally understood Li Huan's meticulous concern, feeling a little disappointed: So Sister Huan wasn't really that kind to me, she didn't like me.

Li Huan had been staring at his face the whole time, so she guessed what he was thinking. She sighed softly, "Yes, I was very good to you back then because I felt I wanted to make up for what I owed Li Feng. You two are so alike, not just in appearance, but also in some aspects of your personalities. But you know what? From the moment I took you to pick up Fei Fei, I stopped seeing you as just a shadow of Li Feng. I was genuinely good to you, and I genuinely liked you like a younger brother." Confessing her feelings for a man, even though it was a sibling relationship, still made Li Huan a little embarrassed. "My parents also like you a lot after they learned about you. They want to adopt you as their godson and are asking if you'd be willing!" Being the godson of a vice-governor is something many people dream of. Given Li Huan's family's experience and their affection for him, they probably treat him even better than a biological son. Moreover, the Chinese nation is one that values kinship and blood ties. With a godson, Vice-Governor Li can better arrange Zhang Bing's future.

Li Huan looked at Zhang Bing with a mixture of hope and fear. He didn't answer her question, but instead gazed tenderly at her nestled in his arms, his arms tightening around her. "Sister Huan, how about I take you and Fei Fei to my house tomorrow? You haven't been before!"

Li Huan was a little nervous, flustered yet excited by Zhang Bing's strange expression, sensing something was about to happen. But hearing his question made her jealous. "What are we going there for? Your girlfriend Ma Pei and her family are coming the day after tomorrow. You should entertain them properly; it seems they're here for a blind date and to meet the parents! Do you expect me to accompany them?"

Zhang Bing ignored her jealous words and continued to look at her affectionately. "Sister, you must go tomorrow!"

"Why?" Li Huan's heart pounded under his gaze; she felt the answer she had been waiting for was finally coming.

Zhang Bing didn't speak, only looked at her. The tenderness in his eyes made Li Huan feel like she could melt. Just as she couldn't take it anymore and was about to pull away, Zhang Bing spoke, his voice deep and full of emotion, "Because I don't want to be a godson, because I want you to be the first woman to enter my home, because I love you, sister, I love you!"

It was finally here! The answer she had been both afraid and looking forward to! Li Huan's mind exploded. Looking into those affectionate eyes, the voice of reason screaming "I can only be your sister" couldn't be uttered. Her bright red lips trembled a few times, and finally, disregarding everything, she met Zhang Bing's kiss with his rich masculine scent. Their lips met, and they frantically demanded more. The man and woman, having completely let go of their love, also became completely absorbed in each other's actions. They were no longer satisfied with just what they were taking from each other's mouths. Li Huan's small hands involuntarily reached into Zhang Bing's pajamas, tightly gripping the strong muscles of his back, as if she wanted to melt her whole body into this man's body. Her large breasts rubbed against the man's hot chest. Zhang Bing's hands were no longer content with just moving around her waist. He skillfully explored the woman's smooth abdomen, circling her navel, causing her to tremble. Then, his fingers moved upwards, hooking the edge of her bra. With a forceful thrust, he pushed the bra up, grasping one of her full, soft breasts. Unlike Qing'er's, Li Huan's breasts, having given birth, were larger and softer, with an incredibly wonderful feel. The nipples quickly became erect, endlessly expressing their desire under Zhang Bing's caresses. Zhang Bing could no longer restrain himself. He forcefully pulled Li Huan's body outwards, then flipped his hand, pushing the woman's bra up to her breasts, intending to remove the entire garment to facilitate further actions.

"No!" Without her clothes covering her chest, the chill jolted Li Huan awake from her reverie. She quickly grabbed Zhang Bing's hand, looking at him shyly. "No, don't take it off, Xiao Bing, is this okay? I haven't thought it through yet, I'm not ready!" She quickly pulled her clothes down, but fearing Zhang Bing's anger, she hesitated, then timidly pulled his hand inside her clothes, gently kneading her breasts. She then pulled her head back into Zhang Bing's arms. "Like this, Xiao Bing, I love you too, but I haven't thought it through yet. I'll give myself to you when I've thought it through, okay?" Seeing Zhang Bing about to speak again, she quietly stopped him. "I know what you're going to say. You can say you don't consider Ma Pei your girlfriend, but I'm really not suitable to be your wife, am I? Your family and friends wouldn't allow a..." "We all understand that you have a married woman with children as your wife. Otherwise, why would I be so foolish as to acknowledge Ma Pei's status and let myself suffer? Xiao Bing, I can only be your good sister, but my heart aches so much. I love you! I love you, Xiao Bing! I want to be your woman—"

Chapter 46 Bringing His Wife Home.

Waking up in the early morning, Zhang Bing looked at the little beauty in his arms and the beautiful woman beside him, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He gently pulled his hand away from Fei Fei, stretching his body, which was very uncomfortable from sleeping in one position for so long. Damn it, he hadn't slept well for days, and it was really hard to relax now. His back ached, and the spot in his abdomen where he had been kicked was noticeably more painful than yesterday, almost making him cry out. He guessed that he hadn't noticed it because he was tired and his senses were dulled yesterday, plus he had something on his mind. He greedily glanced at Li Huan, who was sleeping soundly across from Fei Fei, and his lustful courage, which had been ruined yesterday, rekindled.

Last night, Li Huan's confession was very touching. Although she refused his further exploration, she did not stop his large hands from teasing her full breasts. He was kissing her while wantonly playing with her wonderfully soft breasts, planning to hold her in bed with her later, just like last time, when Xiao Feifei appeared on the stairs carrying a teddy bear that was taller than her. "Mommy, I can't sleep. I want my brother and daddy to tell me a story!" Fortunately, they had not done anything inappropriate for children, and his hand groping inside her clothes was well hidden and difficult to notice from a distance. While Li Huan was still blushing and hurriedly tidying her clothes, little Fei Fei had already climbed into Zhang Bing's arms, squeezing between the two of them. After Zhang Bing and Li Huan each told her a few stories, she finally became sleepy. However, when the two of them put her back to bed, she insisted that her mother, brother, and father sleep with her. "Mommy, Xiao Li told me that when she can't sleep or is scared, she sleeps between her parents. It's very comfortable, and she's not scared at all. This morning, those people were so fierce, and they even hurt my brother and father. I'm so scared!" Helpless, the two of them couldn't resist the little girl's entreaties, so they had to carry her to Li Huan's big bed and lie down on either side of her, leaving Zhang Bing with the beauty so close yet unable to make a move.

Zhang Bing checked the time; it was still early, only 7:30, while Fei Fei usually didn't wake up until 8:30. Looking at that delicate and alluring body, Zhang Bing wanted to crawl over directly, but was afraid of being discovered by Fei Fei and not being able to hide it. So, he could only turn to the side, reaching out a hand through Fei Fei's small body to touch Li Huan's soft body. Before going to bed, Li Huan changed into her pajamas and took off her bra. Lying flat on her back, the pearls on her breasts were clearly visible. Zhang Bing touched them through the pajamas, but wasn't quite satisfied. So he reached inside the wide neckline of the pajamas and continued the game he hadn't had enough of the night before. As he continued to touch her, he felt Li Huan's eyes twitch, her breathing quicken, and her face turn red. He knew she was awake but pretending to be asleep, probably enjoying herself but feeling embarrassed. A thought flashed through his mind. He pulled his hand away from her ample bosom and began to grope her entire body, from her ears, neck, and chest down to her abdomen, and then down her thighs. He stretched his hand as far as he could, hoping to reach her groin. He watched as the woman's face grew increasingly red and her body trembled slightly. His hand deliberately lingered near her thighs for a long time before slowly moving towards her vulva. Just as he felt the warmth emanating from her vulva, Li Huan could no longer pretend to be asleep. She opened her eyes and suddenly grabbed him, intending to scold him. But seeing his mischievous grin, she knew he was deliberately provoking her. She couldn't help but pinch his arm hard. This was quite a pinch, probably because she was angry at Zhang Bing's transgression. Zhang Bing cried out in pain and pitifully withdrew her hand.

The two of them had been a bit too rough just now. They glanced at Fei Fei in a panic. Fortunately, the little one was sleeping soundly. Li Huan gave him a charmingly disdainful look, "You rascal, go make breakfast!"

"No way, Auntie makes breakfast, why would I go?" Zhang Bing naturally refused; lying in bed was so comfortable, with beautiful women around.

"You make fried eggs, my darling Fei Fei and I both love your fried eggs!" the beautiful woman said in a coquettish tone.

Hearing this was comforting, and Zhang Bing felt he hadn't done enough for the mother and daughter, so he decided to make it up to them by making them breakfast himself. He immediately gave an "OK" sign and got out of bed without hesitation. But as soon as he straightened up, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen. The weakness made him almost fall, but luckily he grabbed the wall for support.

"What's wrong?" Li Huan sensed something was wrong with Zhang Bing's appearance. Seeing his hand supporting his abdomen, she quickly got out of bed and helped him. "Is your injury from yesterday worse?"

"It's nothing!" Zhang Bing didn't want Li Huan to worry, displaying the resilience he'd always had since childhood. "It's probably just that my body isn't used to it after a night's rest. The place where I was kicked yesterday is a little sore, but I guess it's normal."

"But you looked so painful just now, shouldn't you go to the hospital?" Li Huan was still worried, anxious and distressed.

"It's alright, don't worry." Afraid Li Huan would dwell on the issue, Zhang Bing deliberately leered and pulled open her pajamas collar for a peek inside. "No need to go to the hospital, you seem quite willing to come here!" This earned her another eye roll from Li Huan, who glanced worriedly at her daughter on the bed. Zhang Bing knew it wasn't a good place to be intimate. Feeling a little better, she steadied herself and walked out. "You should sleep a little longer; sleep is good for a woman's beauty. I'll go fry some eggs for you!"

While having breakfast, Zhang Bing first called her sister, asking her to take the day off and go home to pick up their uncle so they could discuss the construction company. She also asked her to bring some groceries from Chunya Villa to help their mother cook lunch. Then she called home, asking her mother to prepare a hearty lunch and get ready for County Chief Ma to come over for dinner the next day.

The roads to their village were in bad condition, so Zhang Bing suggested driving a Jetta; a luxury car like a BMW was too delicate for their village's dirt roads. Sitting in the car, Feifei was very excited. Although they lived in the countryside, Li Huan rarely took her out. They only went shopping in the small town or the provincial capital, so everything along the mountain road was new and exciting to her. She kept asking Zhang Bing questions. Because of her injury, Zhang Bing was no longer allowed to drive.

"Feifei, what should you call my mom and dad when we get to my house?" Zhang Bing was flustered by the child's bizarre questions and quickly changed the subject.

"Grandpa and Grandma, right?" Feifei answered seriously, thinking Zhang Bing's family was going to be special.

"Ah, right, that's right, Feifei is so smart!" Zhang Bing immediately realized she had asked a stupid question in her panic. The child was so old, how could she not know? She laughed at herself, while Li Huan, who was driving, burst into laughter, making Zhang Bing extremely embarrassed.

"But you really reminded me, Feifei. When we get to your brother's and father's house, don't call him 'brother' and 'father' anymore. Call him 'uncle,' okay?" Li Huan laughed, then suddenly realized something. Feifei's way of addressing him had become a habit, and it would be troublesome if the elders thought it was inappropriate. In the city, people are more open-minded and would just laugh at a child's childish way of addressing someone, but the more conservative elders in the countryside wouldn't think that way. She didn't want to embarrass Zhang Bing because of this.

"Mommy, why? I've always called him that. 'Brother' and 'father' sounds nice, and he said he likes it!" Curious Feifei, of course, didn't understand her mother's thoughts, so she asked.

Li Huan was taken aback, trying to figure out how to give her daughter a reason, when Zhang Bing smiled and said, "Feifei, baby, don't listen to Mommy, just call me Brother Daddy. Brother Daddy likes to hear that!" Then he looked at Li Huan seriously, "Sister Huan, I still have to say this in front of the child: I want you to be the first woman to enter my home. Don't stop me, okay? Even if you can't be my wife, I still want to fulfill this wish and express my feelings!"

Li Huan didn't expect him to say these things in front of the child. Seeing his formal and serious expression, she knew he genuinely wanted to express his feelings, so she didn't blame him. Instead, she felt a sweet warmth in her heart. After all, the man she loved had her in his heart and valued her highly. She had vaguely sensed this when Zhang Bing asked her to come to his house today. She was looking forward to it, but also a little sad. After all, the reality was that, considering both family and Zhang Bing's future, they couldn't be legally married. Even if Zhang Bing could persuade his family to accept her, she would refuse. Loving him meant thinking about him, didn't she? She felt that marrying Zhang Bing while having a child would definitely cause gossip and harm his future. People would think Zhang Bing was after her money and power, and once that impression was formed, even with powerful connections, Zhang Bing's promotion would be extremely difficult. Therefore, she decided that whether she was his sister or his lover, as long as they could be together, and with Feifei by her side, that was enough. Heaven had given her this comfort after her tragic marriage; she shouldn't ask for more! So, she went to Zhang Bing's house today as he wished. She just hoped he wouldn't go completely mad again, otherwise explaining to his parents would be very troublesome.

Li Huan thought to herself, and didn't force her daughter to change her address anymore; she'd let things take their course. Looking at her daughter, thankfully, she was quickly distracted by the scenery along the roadside and probably didn't notice Zhang Bing's somewhat crazy and embarrassing words. Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, Feifei suddenly spoke up, and what she said surprised both of them, "Mom, I won't call my brother 'Dad' anymore, I'll just call him 'Dad,' okay? Xiaoli is right, it was so comfortable sleeping between Mom and Dad last night, I want to sleep like that every day from now on!" The two were speechless, but thankfully, the sensible child saw that her mother's expression wasn't very good, so she didn't say anything more.

What Li Huan had worried about still happened, and it was clear that Zhang Bing was capable of doing this. When the group got out of the car and were about to go inside, Zhang Bing ignored his sister who came to greet them and instead shouted loudly, "Dad, Mom, your son brought his wife back, aren't you going to come and greet your beautiful daughter-in-law!" Then he actually pulled Li Huan to stand at the door and wouldn't leave, just smiling and grinning foolishly at the extremely shy Li Huan. Although Li Huan was startled, she remained relatively calm. She quickly shook off his hand, glared at him, and then smiled broadly at Zhang Bing's parents who had rushed out, saying, "Hello, Uncle and Aunt, I'm Li Huan. I'm Xiao Bing's colleague and also his god-sister. Don't listen to Xiao Bing's nonsense; he's just joking!" Then, pointing to Fei Fei, who was happily playing in Zhang Bing's arms, she said, "That's my daughter, Fei Fei. Zhang Hong knows her too."

Seeing her sister Zhang Hong nod, Zhang Bing's parents breathed a sigh of relief and quickly led Li Huan and her daughter into the room with smiles.

Chapter 47 An Ambiguous Morning

Zhang Bing arrived at County Magistrate Ma's house very early. Knocking on the door with practiced ease, he found a surprised County Magistrate Ma eating breakfast. Seeing Zhang Bing, he nodded with satisfaction. "Little Bing, thank you for coming so early! Have you eaten?"

"Not yet, I was just about to come and mooch a meal from you! Hehe." Since County Magistrate Ma had given him a lecture, Zhang Bing realized his mistake and immediately changed his behavior. Since the man treated him like family, he couldn't be as polite as before. Social interactions are strange; sometimes, appropriate casualness is a sign of intimacy.

"That's perfect! Go upstairs and wake the girl up, you two can eat together! I'm almost finished, I'll read the newspaper for a bit." County Magistrate Ma was very satisfied with this young man, pointing upstairs and smiling at Zhang Bing.

Zhang Bing's face flushed slightly. It seemed County Magistrate Ma truly considered him a son-in-law. He had never even entered Ma Pei's boudoir before, and now he was being asked to wake Ma Pei up? Wasn't he afraid of being seen by his daughter in bed? Did he know what happened between the two of them in Ma Pei's dormitory that day? Lost in thought, Zhang Bing hurriedly greeted Ma Pei's mother, who was still busy in the kitchen, and obediently went upstairs.

Ma Pei's room was easy to find; a wind chime hung by the door, clearly indicating it was a girl's room. Ma Pei had mentioned this prized creation to her before—a beautifully crafted wind chime she had made herself over nearly half a month, which she always boasted about. Zhang Bing knocked on the door for a long time without response. Just as she was about to call out a couple of times, she heard the girl's slightly annoyed voice from inside, "The door's unlocked, come in!" Perhaps realizing her tone wasn't very pleasant, she added, "Mom, why do you always rush me to get up so early? We're going to Bing-ge's house today, and we're waiting for him to pick us up! Honestly! I was so excited last night that I stayed up very late, I'm exhausted!"

Zhang Bing almost burst out laughing. This girl was so old, yet she still acted like a little girl, probably spoiled rotten, always behaving like this with her mother. He had originally intended to tease her, but then a thought crossed his mind: it wouldn't hurt to sneak in and surprise her. So, without a word, he pushed open the door and went in.

"Mom, can you talk to Dad later and let me stay at Brother Bing's house for one night? Tomorrow, Brother Bing can take me—ah—" Before he could finish speaking, a scream rang out, loud enough for the County Magistrate and his wife downstairs to hear.

Zhang Bing was stunned. Instead of the girl lying on the bed with her eyes closed, acting coquettishly, he saw a delicate body, naked, having just taken off her pajamas. He had seen her fair, smooth skin before, but the firm, trembling breasts and the dark pubic hair below her abdomen were a first for him. The girl was holding a pair of transparent white panties, raising her leg to put them on, her movements incredibly seductive. Early morning is typically a time when men are most aroused, and Zhang Bing, having been unable to release his pent-up desires for the past two days due to Li Huan's seduction, found himself unable to look away. His saliva flowed rapidly, and his penis erected, forming a tent.

Fortunately, this moment was extremely brief. The girl, noticing Zhang Bing, nimbly jumped onto the bed, burying her fair body under the covers, leaving only her head peeking out, her face flushed as she looked at Zhang Bing.

Seeing Zhang Bing still standing dumbfounded at the door, the girl smiled generously, "Brother Bing, come in! Close the door!" Zhang Bing had been standing at the door since his daze, and the door had remained open.

"Oh—no, I'll go out. Just now—just now your father told me to come and wake you!" Coming to his senses, Zhang Bing almost turned and ran away. The scene was too erotic; he was overwhelmed by the stimulation and felt incredibly embarrassed.

"No! Brother Bing, come in!" The girl hurriedly called out to him, trying to sit up in her haste, but her upper body was already completely naked from under the covers. She quickly lay back down, looking at her beloved man with a mixture of shyness and joy. She probably felt that Zhang Bing coming to pick her up so early was a sign of his love for her, and the girl, feeling delighted, wanted to whisper sweet nothings to Zhang Bing a little longer.

Zhang Bing, his mind temporarily blank, complied with the girl's request and came in. Standing by the bed, he looked at her, somewhat at a loss, not even noticing the prominent tent in his pants.

"Brother Bing, sit down, sit on the bed!" The girl was quite generous, reaching out to grab Zhang Bing, not caring at all about the exposed fair armpits and a large expanse of smooth chest muscles. But her hand wasn't long enough, and instead, it bumped against his protruding tent as it fell. Both of them shuddered simultaneously. Zhang Bing realized what was happening and quickly sat down to cover himself. The girl, who had only noticed her beloved man's face, also noticed the unusual movement of his fingers and quickly withdrew her hand, covering her entire head with the blanket, too embarrassed to look at anyone.

A silence fell over the room. Neither of them dared to speak. Zhang Bing felt he would go crazy if he stayed any longer. He knew there was a beautiful woman inside, whom he had just glanced at, and who even had feelings for him and had once seduced him. He was afraid he wouldn't be able to resist and would pounce on her. Her parents were still waiting downstairs. So he smoothed down his penis to make it less conspicuous, then immediately stood up and walked out. "Xiao Pei, you go downstairs first. Get up quickly."

"No! Brother Bing, don't go!" The girl, forgetting her shyness at the thought of him leaving, hurriedly grabbed him again. Her small eyes glanced down, noticing the faint marks on her skin, and her face flushed again. But she bravely pulled Zhang Bing to sit on the edge of her bed, guiding his hand to caress her delicate face. "Brother Bing, you came to pick me up so early? You're so good to me! I've missed you so much these past few days. Last night, I was so excited about going to your house that I couldn't sleep! I think this is what love feels like, right?" Then she looked up at Zhang Bing. "Brother Bing, you won't laugh at me, will you?"

To be honest, Zhang Bing hadn't expected the girl's feelings for him to be so deep. Even when Ma Pei was willing to give herself to him last time, he thought it was just the girl's romantic feelings. Now it seemed that wasn't true. Ma Pei was deeply in love with him. Perhaps, as she herself said, he had only known her for half a month in real life, but his infatuation in his dreams had lasted for years, resulting in this somewhat distorted and unbelievable love. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel guilty towards the girl. After all, he had only treated her like a spoiled little girl, without truly appreciating her feelings. So, expressing my emotions through action, I gently kissed her eyes with tenderness in my heart.

He had only intended to kiss her eyes to express his guilt, but Ma Pei didn't see it that way. Seeing his passionate kiss, she saw a kind of deep affection in his eyes that excited and aroused her, an affection she had never seen before in a man. Her excited heart knew that this man had finally accepted her, as if the barrier between them had suddenly disappeared. The girl disregarded her shyness and her naked body. She excitedly reached out and wrapped her arms around the man's neck, offering her lips and tongue, and passionately kissed him. She completely ignored the fullness of her breasts exposed by the movement of her arms, and even forcefully pulled Zhang Bing onto her body.

The two had already kissed before, and their coordination was quite tacit. Their lips and tongues exchanged, and their French kiss lasted for several minutes before it abruptly stopped because Zhang Bing was uncomfortable and couldn't catch his breath. The girl looked at Zhang Bing affectionately, noticing his gaze occasionally sneaking glances at her chest. She couldn't help but smile triumphantly, and shyly but bravely took the man's hand and placed it on her breasts, which had never been violated by anyone other than this man. "Brother Bing, Xiao Pei loves you, loves you so much, Xiao Pei's body is all yours!" Nowadays,

college students dating and living together is no longer news. More than half of the people in her dormitory have lost their virginity, so she is certainly not unfamiliar with matters between men and women. She noticed that Zhang Bing was a little stiff and slow, and guided his hand to wander up and down her breasts. "Brother Bing, is Xiao Pei beautiful?"

"Beautiful! Xiao Pei is not only beautiful all over, but her breasts are even more beautiful. They are the most beautiful breasts I have ever seen!" Zhang Bing had been struggling with himself, hesitating whether to take advantage of the situation, but he was also afraid that the county magistrate downstairs would find out and get angry. But now that the beautiful woman had taken the initiative, what was there for a man to fear? So, he relaxed, his mind became incredibly sharp, his tongue regained its usual eloquence, and even his hands on the girl's body began to tease her nipples. The girl's breasts, never before explored, were somewhat immature, delicate yet soft, slightly concave, and pale pink in color, completely different from those of Li Huan and Qing'er, making Zhang Bing unable to put them down.

"Ugh! You were so clueless just now, and now you're all talk!" The girl enjoyed her beloved man's praise, proudly puffing out her large breasts, then grabbing his hand and placing it on them, looking at him solemnly, "From now on, it's all yours, brother!"

These words were so sentimental, more sentimental than sex. Zhang Bing, who had already accepted the girl in his heart, no longer held back. He threw off the covers and buried his head in her ample bosom, taking a small cherry into his mouth and gently grinding it with his teeth. His other hand began to roam over the girl's body. After a long while, sensing her need from her rapid breathing, he slowly came to the lush grass, probed the weeds by the stream with his fingers, and then suddenly plunged headfirst into the warm, steaming stream.

"Ah—no!" The girl, who had been moaning incessantly, trembled in shock at Zhang Bing's anticipated sneak attack. Inexperienced and vulnerable, she couldn't withstand the stimulation of a seasoned lover like Zhang Bing. Her body was burning hot, her waist swaying wildly. Zhang Bing's combined use of hands and mouth finally brought her to her climax when his hand reached her most sensitive spot. Consumed by lust, Zhang Bing was about to lift the covers to admire her, but the girl stopped him. She tightly gripped his head with one hand, pressing it against her ample bosom, and with the other, she grabbed his hand that was about to lift the covers and pressed it against her other breast. Only when her trembling stopped did she let out a satisfied sigh, her erect body softening as she quietly savored the afterglow. The experienced Zhang Bing, of course, knew how to cooperate. He pressed his body tightly against hers, pulling his hand away to hold her close, refusing to let go, allowing the woman to enjoy even more of the pressure and fullness.

Chapter 48: Many Insights

As Ma Pei happily walked downstairs arm in arm with Zhang Bing as usual, she saw County Magistrate Ma and his wife sitting on the sofa, looking at them with doting expressions, their eyes seeming to hold an unusual meaning. The two, feeling guilty, naturally dared not meet her gaze. The quick-witted Ma Pei immediately and mischievously shouted to her mother, "Mom, where's my breakfast? I'm starving! And Brother Bing hasn't eaten either!"

Ma's mother didn't speak, but simply pointed to the dining table, still looking at Zhang Bing with a smile—the look of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, growing more and more fond with each glance. Just as Zhang Bing was about to give up, County Magistrate Ma finally spoke up, teasing the two of them, "Girl, now that you have Bing-gege, do you not need breakfast anymore? I thought you weren't hungry, haha! You're getting more and more naughty. I kindly asked Xiao Bing to wake you up, but you made him go hungry with you!" Although there was some reproach, he was extremely satisfied, and he even deliberately said to his wife beside him, "Wife, look how you spoil this daughter. Where will you find someone to marry her off in the future? Sigh!" This made Ma's mother burst out laughing, glancing at Jiao... The daughter, blushing, added fuel to the fire, "Yes, she's really afraid she won't be able to get married. No way, I'm going to find those matchmakers to arrange blind dates for her tomorrow!"

This made the girl furious. She was already somewhat shy and embarrassed in front of her parents, but now she didn't care about saving face anymore. She was determined to make her relationship with Zhang Bing clear to her parents. She proudly tightened her arms around her beloved, leaned her head on Zhang Bing's shoulder, and looked at her mother with a smug look, "I don't want to go on blind dates

. None of those rich young men are as good as Brother Bing, hmph!" "Oh—" It seems that the Ma family is usually very warm and harmonious. The County Magistrate and his wife abandoned their composure and said "oh" in a strange way like young people. They winked at each other and then laughed, making the two young people even more embarrassed.

Finally, County Chief Ma, fearing Zhang Bing might lose face, quickly explained, "Xiao Bing, you're very relaxed at our house. Don't be shy, we don't have many rules, haha!" Then he quickly changed the subject, "Xiao Bing, I guess you'll have to call your family to arrange more food and drinks. You'll have a few more guests today. Her second uncle just called, saying he's free and wants to come over to your house for some relaxation, like fishing or something."

"Haha, no problem, I'd be more than happy to welcome Director Liu! Don't worry, everything's prepared. We don't have any expensive food and drinks, but it'll be plenty of local specialties!" Zhang Bing was confident he could entertain them well. Recently, he'd been frequently entertaining guests, and Guo Zi and his group would be arriving next week. As an old classmate, he felt he had to treat him to a meal at his house, so he had prepared extra food and drinks.

Perhaps spurred by her parents' earlier joke, Ma Pei, now basking in the glow of love, became more diligent. Seeing the porridge on the table was getting cold, she refused her mother's help and started heating it herself. However, seeing her clumsy attempts, Zhang Bing shook his head and ran into the kitchen to help, even frying two eggs. The two then ate, chatting and laughing. The happy young woman kept praising Zhang Bing's fried eggs, saying they should be made for her often, acting like a pampered little wife. The elderly couple on the sofa watched with great satisfaction.

County Magistrate Ma, seeing his daughter's happiness, couldn't be more pleased with Zhang Bing. Although his daughter had previously stated that they were in a relationship, he felt uneasy about Zhang Bing's attitude towards her, which didn't seem like the intimacy of a boyfriend. That's why he had the idea to have Zhang Bing wake his daughter up. Once they were truly in a relationship, he didn't mind if his daughter was taken advantage of; after all, it was difficult for couples in love to control themselves, and he, being open-minded, thought it was normal. Sure enough, he heard his daughter's scream clearly. He guessed she thought her mother was waking her up again and that she had accidentally exposed herself. However, he stopped his wife from going upstairs to see what was going on. Parents shouldn't interfere in their children's affairs. He was more interested in seeing how things would develop between them. If Zhang Bing came downstairs, it would mean their relationship hadn't reached a very intimate stage yet. If he didn't, given his daughter's affection for Zhang Bing, she would probably be very happy that he came so early, and the two young people would likely be affectionate for a while before coming down. Later, seeing things develop exactly as he had hoped, he was naturally overjoyed and started joking with the younger generation. Now, seeing the two of them preparing breakfast together intimately, he was even more satisfied.

A moment later, Director Liu strode in, greeted his sister and brother-in-law, and then, seeing his niece clearing the dishes, joked, "Oh dear, it's so different with Xiao Bing here! My precious niece is actually doing housework!" This prompted the girl to drop her bowl and pinch her uncle. She had always been very close to her uncle, almost like her parents, and often acted spoiled around him. After a while, Director Liu quickly surrendered and turned to Zhang Bing, who was smiling beside him, saying, "Xiao Bing, your uncle is coming over to join in the fun, you don't mind, do you?"

"I object! If you bully me again, I'll say it on behalf of Brother Bing and won't let you go!" the girl, still clinging to her uncle, immediately shouted back, her face beaming with pride, making faces at him. Director Liu was only being polite to Zhang Bing and didn't care about his niece's opinion. He affectionately flicked her nose and went over to chat quietly with County Chief Ma.

"Xiao Bing, come here for a moment," Director Liu suddenly beckoned to Zhang Bing.

"There's something I need to discuss with you. After you told me about Deng Chunguang the night before last, I specifically had someone inquire about those thugs who assaulted you yesterday afternoon. Sure enough, they were released and have fled to another city, making them untraceable. The airport police station is treating it as a routine fight, and a one-day warning and detention is already quite severe, considering you weren't seriously investigated and didn't sustain any obvious injuries. We don't have a pretext to investigate the Zhu brothers right now, so we have to start from other angles. But to investigate them this way, we need to establish a strong presence in the city to be effective. I'm currently no match for Vice Mayor Lin in the city, so after much thought, we need a stronger external force to influence the city's power to turn to us. You mentioned Vice Governor Li to us yesterday..." "It's something I can help with, so I thought you could invite Vice Governor Li's daughter, Li Huan, to your house today. We can all plan this out properly, so we have a better strategy. Ideally, we can take them down completely, eradicating evil once and for all!"

Zhang Bing nodded immediately in agreement. He already knew that Director Liu wouldn't actually come to his house for no reason. It seemed that County Chief Ma and his group had planned this all along, just putting on a show in front of him. Revenge was a minor matter in their eyes; their greater goal was to bring down Vice Mayor Lin and take his place. They also wanted to use this incident to get acquainted with Vice Governor Li and build even greater influence—that was the more important thing. That's why they were in such a hurry. Yesterday they were told that Vice Governor Li could help, and today they rushed over to make contact. They already knew of Li Huan's existence, but they hadn't had a reason to contact this powerful figure, which was why they hadn't acted rashly. Planning before acting, everything was natural and decisive—truly a cunning old fox. Having grasped this point, Zhang Bing gained a deeper understanding of the ways of officialdom. He realized he had made a hasty phone call yesterday, revealing his hand too quickly, resulting in being manipulated and even led by the nose. Truly, no one gets up early without a reason. Director Liu's early arrival today was solely due to the potential benefit of bringing down Vice Mayor Lin. His original intention for revenge was simply to bring down the Zhu brothers, the direct perpetrators, so they could no longer threaten him. But now they were determined to escalate the situation, and what could he do? It seemed the best course of action at the time would have been to investigate thoroughly and then rely on Li Huan's influence to handle the matter, trusting that Li Huan would act in his best interest and not exploit him, and possessing sufficient power to avenge him. However, now that things had come to this, he had no choice but to go along with their wishes. He absolutely could not let them see any dissatisfaction with this matter.

Thus, everything was settled, and everyone set off, chatting and laughing. The other car was driven by County Chief Ma himself. Ma Pei's face momentarily darkened with displeasure upon learning he would see Li Huan, but he quickly concealed it and resumed his cheerful demeanor. Upon arriving in town, Li Huan picked up Li Huan and her daughter who were waiting at home, and the two cars drove smoothly towards Zhang Bing's house.

Following the planned route, Zhang Bing led County Chief Ma and his entourage to Hongqi Lake Reservoir. Secretary Luo should have already arranged the reception there. However, upon getting out of the car, Zhang Bing unexpectedly saw someone: Mayor Huang and the old Party Secretary were respectfully smiling as they approached. Zhang Bing smiled bitterly to himself; these people's intelligence was too accurate! While Mayor Huang and County Chief Ma were shaking hands and exchanging pleasantries, Xue'er walked up to him and said, "The old Party Secretary asked the reservoir management director to prepare to welcome County Chief Ma, but who knew he would inform Mayor Huang in the blink of an eye, and so this happened." Zhang Bing immediately wanted to slap himself. Everyone would try to get involved in such a major event as the development of Hongqi Lake. To maintain control of the overall situation, he had to try to unite the people around him. But he had overlooked such an important person as the reservoir management director! He deserved to die! It seemed he still had a lot to learn.

Zhang Bing thought Mayor Huang would blame him, so he specifically went over to explain. To his surprise, Mayor Huang showed no anger whatsoever; instead, he became even more polite, as if Zhang Bing wasn't his subordinate, but rather a colleague or superior. Later in the conversation, Zhang Bing finally understood from his words that Mayor Huang wanted to use him to get close to the county magistrate. He also knew that Zhang Bing would soon rise to prominence, so Mayor Huang was fawning over him – this was the norm in officialdom, another thought Zhang Bing had at the time.

Fortunately, County Magistrate Ma and his group didn't care about the food or the fun; as long as Li Huan was there, it represented Vice Governor Li's attitude, and that was enough for them. The so-called planning was all empty talk; they knew that as long as they acted, Vice Governor Li would naturally know and cooperate. Therefore, although Zhang Bing's parents were timid and unsure how to speak to them, they didn't care and chatted happily with Li Huan. However, this greatly displeased Zhang Bing with the disdain these high-ranking officials showed towards his parents.

Chapter 49 Exhausted

Song Xue'er was very unhappy after returning home today. She didn't feel the excitement one would expect after seeing the county magistrate. Although she was well-traveled and knew that a small county magistrate was nothing special, it was crucial to have met him if he happened to be her direct superior. After all, as the village women's director, she would never normally see the county magistrate; there were several layers between them. She had begun to love her job and was finding enjoyment in it. Originally, she had only wanted to prove to Zhang Bing that her thoughts had changed. She was genuinely happy to be able to do something for her hometown. Although there were still many things she wasn't used to, everything was moving in a positive direction, which was very gratifying. And now the county magistrate had come to personally inspect their work. But she just couldn't feel happy! The reason was simple: it all stemmed from Zhang Bing, or more accurately, from the woman beside him.

Although Zhang Bing's indirect rejection last time had angered her, causing her to cry and almost leading to a car accident that ruined both of them, after crying again at home, she finally understood her feelings for this man. She knew she was increasingly attracted to his growing excellence and was now definitely in love with him. Therefore, she decided to remain calm and take things slowly. After all, they worked together, so there would be plenty of time to get to know each other. She always believed in her beauty and abilities. However, today, when she saw that besides the flirtatious Li Huan constantly leaning against Zhang Bing, there was also the county magistrate's daughter, a woman as young and beautiful as herself, intimately following Zhang Bing and constantly calling him affectionately "Brother Bing," Xue'er could intuitively sense from their eyes and attitudes that this girl named Ma Pei was her greatest enemy. Apart from the occasional inquiry from the county magistrate, Zhang Bing was constantly controlled by these two women. She couldn't even get a word in edgewise with the man she admired, and they didn't even look at her directly. She felt a deep sense of defeat. Officials need connections. If he could win the favor of the county magistrate's daughter, would Zhang Bing prioritize this aspect when considering relationships?

Xue'er finished dinner in a daze, still unable to clear her mind. She had stormed back in a huff after the county magistrate and his party left that afternoon, but now she regretted it. Putting aside the awkwardness of making Zhang Bing and the old Party Secretary feel uncomfortable, staying there would at least allow her to hear Zhang Bing's opinions about the girl or probe the progress of their relationship—which would be beneficial for future competition! Moreover, she now remembered that the girl had initially insisted on staying, and her father, County Magistrate Ma, hadn't objected, but Zhang Bing had still sent her back, citing busy schedules the next day. She had also noticed that Zhang Bing seemed downcast since lunch. Could this indicate something?

Zhang Bing felt extremely tired. The exhaustion from continuous high-intensity work, the lingering pain from internal injuries, the feeling of being used in backstabbing, the exhaustion from working himself to the bone yet still making many mistakes, the exhaustion from feeling lost, insecure, and afraid about the future—all these were exacerbated by the disdainful attitude of Ma Pei's family towards his parents. This final straw was incredibly light, and might seem normal to others, but it was what broke him. Now, despite his hard work, he couldn't even bring basic respect to his parents and family. He felt incredibly frustrated, and he had the urge to give up everything and escape. Exhausted, he lay on the chair with his eyes closed, not wanting to talk to anyone. He just lay there quietly, listening to his family chatting casually by the fireplace. His body ached, and his heart was filled with bitterness, despair, and a sense of destruction.

After his initial dissatisfaction with lunch, he couldn't control his emotions. Despite trying to smile and talk to everyone, he couldn't concentrate. So, he managed to send away Ma Pei, who wanted to linger, and didn't stay at Li Huan's house after sending her home. He just wanted to go home, even having the urge to cry his heart out away from everyone else. So, after seeing the old secretary off at dinner, he couldn't hold back anymore and lay down on the chair by the stove, refusing to move. He didn't even respond when his mother called him to take his medicine, which Li Huan had specially brought for him to brew at home. She was always so thoughtful and kind. He thought about the past, the bittersweet memories, and how his parents still worked hard. Tears welled up in his eyes.

Gradually, in a half-asleep, half-awake state, he sensed someone coming to his house. He recognized his sister's greeting; it sounded like Xue'er. Xue'er was acting strangely today, seemingly a little sulky. She probably came over to discuss some work, but he couldn't be bothered to greet her. He didn't want to think about that awful work at all; he just wanted to rest, rest, and more rest. So he pretended to be asleep and didn't move, hoping she would leave.

Xue'er entered and saw Zhang Bing lying on a chair with his eyes closed. Completely sprawled in the large recliner, Zhang Bing lacked his usual shrewdness and energy, looking like a helpless child, exuding an aura of despondency. There seemed to be tears in the corners of his eyes. What was wrong with him? Xue'er, who had come under the pretense of checking on Zhang Bing, felt a pang of sadness. This man was probably just too tired; he had been running around without rest these past few days, exhausting himself.

"Honghong, what's wrong with your brother?" Xue'er asked Zhang Hong uncertainly.

“I don’t know either, I guess he’s just exhausted. After we finished eating and saw Secretary Luo off, he’s been lying here without saying a word, like he’s asleep.” His sister’s voice was filled with worry. “Ever since he came back from Beijing, I’ve noticed he looks terrible. I told him he was fine, but Xue’er, you don’t know, my brother has a fear of heights, he’s terrified of flying. I really don’t know how he got through the plane this time. And Li Huan told me he was beaten up at the airport, and his medicine is still on the table, unused.”

“I think he’s physically exhausted and his internal injuries are acting up. Look how bad he looks, he needs to rest for a few days, otherwise I’m afraid he won’t be able to handle it.” His sister’s words confirmed Li Huan’s assessment, but he knew that Zhang Bing’s heart was probably also weary; otherwise, why would he be so dejected?

“Yes, Xue’er, you should persuade him to rest at home for a few days. I’ve seen him clutching his stomach and gasping for breath a few times; I guess he’s enduring the internal injuries from the beating. My brother is too stubborn; he doesn’t listen to anyone at home.” His sister’s words drew agreement from his parents, who all sighed in unison.

“Honghong, I remember you said you studied traditional Chinese massage, right? How about this, you go get some hot water in a bucket, I'll give your brother a foot massage, and you can give him a body massage. We can take turns, let him relax, maybe it'll be good for him.” Seeing Zhang Bing like this, Xue'er really wanted to do something, and after thinking for a moment, she blurted it out. When she worked in hotel management, she had seen the girls in the shops giving foot massages, which were said to be very effective, so she had learned it herself, but she had never done it for anyone before. Today, she was going to put aside her pride, because you know, people in the countryside always think that washing someone's feet is a very lowly thing, only slightly better than prostitution. She could tell this from the expressions on Zhang Bing's parents' faces, but she couldn't care less. She still explained, “When I was working in hotel management, I saw people doing it very well, and I heard it was effective, so I learned some from our staff. But today is my first time doing it, I don't know if it will be effective?” The expressions on Zhang Bing's family's faces softened a little.

Zhang Bing didn't stop Xue'er, but remained silent. To be honest, he was very grateful for her suggestion, because he really enjoyed foot massages and foot reflexology. He even had an annual membership in Beijing. For someone like him who sits in an office all day, he found these health benefits very useful and comfortable, and given his current health condition, he really needed them. However, he didn't want to speak, and he was too embarrassed to suddenly open his eyes and say something like "thank you" to Xue'er. She was already humbling herself like a wife to her husband just to get a foot massage; wouldn't it be insulting to say something like that? So he remained silent, not daring to speak, and mechanically followed the two women's orders to provide their service.

Foot massage is a skilled job, and it can be very tiring for someone who isn't skilled. Xue'er was a novice, so Zhang Bing soon heard her panting, but she didn't stop. She had her sister help her take off her coat and continued to serve Zhang Bing while only wearing her sweater. Since they didn't have massage cream or essential oils at home, they could only use the night cream that came to their house, but the effect was obviously not very good. The night cream didn't have that particularly strong lubricating effect, making it even more difficult to knead the rough skin on his feet. Zhang Bing could even feel beads of sweat dripping onto his legs in the middle of winter, and he could also feel Xue'er's soft little hands gradually cramping, knowing that she was tired. But Xue'er still insisted on completing the entire process, and massaged his entire leg without any hesitation, following the procedure. The muscles of his thighs were relaxed one by one by his soft little hands without the slightest hesitation. She even put Zhang Bing's leg on her thigh to make it easier to massage. When he felt the full elasticity of his thigh, Zhang Bing could hear Xue'er's slightly nervous breathing and could imagine her pale face, which was a little embarrassed and tired.

After the foot massage, Xue'er rested for a while and then helped her sister with a full-body massage. Zhang Bing was a little touched, and his empty heart seemed to warm up. He gradually fell into a deep sleep in the tingling and comfortable feeling in his body.

Chapter 50 A Relaxing Day (Part 1)

The next day, Zhang Bing appeared on time at the long-awaited village committee office, full of energy. The old secretary and Song Xue'er had also arrived long ago.

"Old Secretary, didn't I tell you your injury from last time hasn't healed yet, and I told you to rest at home for a week? Don't take offense, but although your bones are still strong, you're getting on in years, and it was a head injury, so you really need to rest and recuperate!" Zhang Bing had been so busy these past few days that he hadn't paid attention to the old secretary's injury. Now, seeing him back in the office as usual, he suddenly remembered and couldn't help but worry about him. The old secretary had been very good to him, and given his age, he had to be careful. He gently pushed the old secretary towards the door.

"Alright, Xiao Bing, don't look down on this old man. I can still contribute!" The old secretary smiled and patted his hand to stop him from pushing. "The investment inspection team will be here in a few days, and I'll be very busy then. I can't rest easy at home!"

"Well, you said you'll be busy in a few days, so why don't you take a break now? Director Xue'er, we don't have anything to do today, right? The old secretary doesn't need to worry about us, does he?" Zhang Bing winked at Xue'er.

Xue'er smiled as she looked at the two men. Such good colleagues and such a good relationship—it was truly heartwarming. She said seriously to the old Party Secretary, "Old Party Secretary, we really don't have anything to do today. If you have anything to do, you can leave it to us. You should go back and rest!"

"Right, Old Party Secretary? You might not believe me, but you'll believe me, right? There really isn't anything to do today. I even told Director Xue'er last night that I was inviting everyone out to have some fun today, as a way to relax after work, hehe!" Zhang Bing secretly gave Xue'er a thumbs up while continuing to wink, "Why don't you come with us to the provincial capital, or you should go back and rest. It's up to you. Anyway, you don't need to work these next two days until the inspection team arrives."

"You two are planning to go out today? Well, you've been busy for so long with almost no days off, you deserve a rest, especially you two, you're practically working every day. The village has some money from road repairs lately, so the village committee will sponsor you 1,000 yuan. Go out and relax a bit; young people should have more fun. I won't go with you; this old man will spend some time with his wife in the sun. The weather's nice today." The old secretary genuinely thought the young people wanted a break, acknowledging their hard work. He'd even heard yesterday that Zhang Bing had been assaulted over a project, so he was being generous by letting them travel on public funds.

These words deeply moved the two young people. Zhang Bing had only made up an excuse to get the old secretary to go home and rest, but it had unexpectedly led to a unique "paid leave, publicly funded travel" in the village committee's history. 1,000 yuan wasn't much, but it was more than enough for a day's fun. Besides, the old secretary was notoriously stingy, always trying to make the village's money multiply. This showed how kind he was to them, leaving the two somewhat stunned.

"What, are you scared out of your wits by the public funds being spent, or were you just lying to me about going on vacation? You little rascals, don't think I didn't see you two exchanging glances earlier. You're conspiring to trick this old man into taking a break alone , aren't you?" The old Party Secretary was a shrewd man; seeing the two stunned expressions, he knew exactly what was going on.

The words "exchanging glances" were somewhat ambiguous, and it seemed the old Party Secretary had said it on purpose, making the two young men a little shy, standing there unsure of what to say.

"Alright, whatever you thought before, I've decided. You're both on vacation today. My word is final. Xiao Bing, get 1,000 yuan from Xue'er. I'll sign it. You two can have a good time. It's really been hard work for you." The old Party Secretary looked at them smugly, and finally made the final decision with a wave of his hand. "You two hurry up and go. Xiao Bing, take good care of Xue'er on the way. If you don't have enough time, you can stay for a few more days, but you'll have to pay for the extra expenses yourself!" He urged the two still somewhat dazed young men to take the money, then pushed them directly into Zhang Bing's car. "Be careful on the road!" Then he locked the gate and drove off.

"What should we do?" Xue'er was naturally excited to go out with Zhang Bing, even though she knew he was lying earlier, her heart was still pounding. Now that reality had finally arrived, she was afraid Zhang Bing wouldn't agree, so she left the decision to this man.

"What should we do? Obey orders! It's rare for the old secretary to spend money like this, I won't be satisfied until I've spent all of this thousand yuan!" Zhang Bing felt it wasn't good to take Xue'er out alone. After all, he had some idea last night that Xue'er's feelings hadn't changed, and he was afraid of getting into another romantic entanglement. But not going would be even worse, it would hurt the girl's feelings. Besides, going out to have fun was perfectly normal, and he really wanted to have some fun and relax, so he gritted his teeth and decided to go. "So, beautiful Xue'er, where do you want to go?" "

Yay! Let's go, let's go to the provincial capital first!" Xue'er's face was radiant, the feeling of being on a date alone with the man she loved made her both shy and excited.

The two arrived in the provincial capital at 11 o'clock. Since Zhang Bing hadn't eaten much for breakfast, Xue'er suggested they go for lunch first.

"Where should we eat, Director Xue'er, please advise?" Having decided to relax, Zhang Bing naturally loosened his guard, always joking with the beautiful woman beside him.

"Let's go to the People's Commune. Their braised pork is delicious, it's your favorite, and their braised pig's feet are also good. Pig's feet are nutritious, perfect for replenishing your body!" Xue'er thought for a moment, then rolled her eyes at him.

"Okay, I'm so touched that you care about me so much, beautiful Xue'er. We'll even pack up the leftover pig's feet bones to use as walking sticks for our Director Xue'er." Zhang Bing, always the same old flirtatious type, couldn't resist teasing this stunningly beautiful woman, and these words immediately brought a wave of pain to his arm muscles.

After getting out of the car, Xue'er hesitated for a moment, but still took Zhang Bing's arm. Her face was a little red, after all, this was the first time she had ever been so intimate with a man's arm, especially in public. Seeing Zhang Bing grinning mischievously and about to tease her again, she quickly explained, "Don't be so smug. If everyone was doing this, I was afraid you would lose face, so I would keep a meter away from you!"

Zhang Bing glanced around and saw that men and women eating together were indeed walking in and out arm in arm, looking very intimate. However, most of them looked like couples. "Hehe, thanks for your cooperation, beautiful director. But those people seem to be a couple!" He glanced at her smugly after saying that. "Hold on tighter, we need to look like a couple, otherwise we'll give ourselves away and become a laughingstock."

As a result, his arm muscles suffered again, but Xue'er blushed and hugged her arms tighter. Zhang Bing could feel her full breasts through his arms. He deliberately touched her breasts and whispered in her ear, "Nice size, at least 34E, right?"

"Go to hell! Pervert!" This caused another round of screams. This time, in addition to his arm suffering, Xue'er deliberately stepped on his instep with her heel. As he gasped in pain, she smiled smugly and whispered back in his ear, "Go ahead and touch me, I'll step on you every time I touch you!" She even gave him a flirtatious wink.

The two entered the restaurant, playfully bickering. The restaurant was indeed bustling, almost completely full. Satisfied, they found seats, and a waitress dressed in Red Guard-style clothing immediately approached, smiling slightly before speaking, "Sir, your girlfriend is so beautiful! Look at you two, a perfect match, many people envy you! What would you like to order?"

Zhang Bing smiled slightly, glancing at the shy Xue'er, who was pretending to look down at the menu. "Hehe, of course my wife is beautiful, otherwise I wouldn't have brought her out! But she still can't compare to you. Look at your figure, your face, your breasts! If you dressed more fashionably, all the men in this restaurant would be attracted to you, and I'd be the first to pursue you! Hehe, Xue'er, you order!"

These words made both women blush deeply. This was the effect Zhang Bing wanted. It had been a long time since he'd been so flirtatious. Was this how he used to tease women when he first graduated? It felt good! He'd take the flirting to the extreme today!

"Sir, you're so good with words! But don't blame me if your beautiful wife gets angry later! Hehe, but thank you for the compliment, although I know I can't compare to her!" The waitress was very eloquent, continuing to tease Zhang Bing while indirectly praising Xue'er.

Zhang Bing just smiled and didn't say anything more. Jokes had to be kept within limits; if he continued, it would really become harassment of a woman, and he wasn't that uncouth. This gentlemanly behavior won the waitress's favor, and she gave him a flirtatious wink.

"What did you just say?" After the waitress finished taking the order and left, Xue'er's smiling and slightly shy face immediately changed, turning icy cold, and her heel pressed against Zhang Bing's instep.

"What did I just say? I said Xue'er, you're ordering!" Zhang Bing pretended to be crazy. "What's wrong, Xue'er? You look terrible. Let me see, should we go to the hospital?" Zhang Bing reached out to touch her forehead.

"You're the one who went to the hospital! Go to hell!" Xue'er slapped away his hand that was reaching for her face, slowly increasing the pressure on her foot. "What was the sentence before that?"

"The sentence before? What was the sentence before that? Sigh, look at my memory, I've forgotten!" Zhang Bing slapped his forehead, thinking, then his face lit up with joy. "Right, I remember now, I said the waitress has a beautiful figure, face, and breasts!"

"Really? Yes, her breasts are really big, did you want to stick your eyes in them to see them? What else did you say? Tell me the truth!" Xue'er stomped on his foot harder.

"Ah—Xue'er, don't murder your husband in public! I surrender, I surrender!" Zhang Bing deliberately spoke the words "husband" quickly and vaguely, "I said my wife is very beautiful!"

But Xue'er still heard the words "husband" clearly, and angrily slammed her heel down hard, this time it hurt a hundred times more than before, "Who is your wife? Shameless, husband, go to hell! What else?" Feeling that he had tortured her enough, Xue'er smiled a little, but still continued to torture her.

"And, and she also said my wife isn't as good as her." Zhang Bing confessed honestly with a bitter face. So this was what angered the girl the most. Really, she loved comparing so much. But he still had to continue pleading, "Xue'er, we're just pretending to be boyfriend and girlfriend. I just thought, girlfriend or wife, it's all fake, so I was just saying it casually. You're definitely a hundred times prettier than her!"

"Really? You know it's fake and you're deliberately taking advantage of me? Will you dare to do it again next time?" Xue'er gritted her teeth. This guy was very good at making excuses, and he just spouted nonsense. Although she liked him, she couldn't stand it. She had to punish this "husband" properly.
