Chapter 842: TV Station’s news anchor
Chapter 842: TV Station’s news anchor
Two days later. Saturday.
Fen Zhou City Party Committee Family quarters.
Dong Xuebing returned after almost one week. He looked at the blue sky and felt refreshed. This Nan Shan District trip ended well. Dong Xuebing had completed the City Commission for Discipline Inspection’s task, saved Geng Yuehua, and was satisfied with her mouth. He was in a good mood and hummed a song as he walked up the stairs.
Dong Xuebing overheard people talking in the stairwell.
“Have you watched the news?”
“Yes. They had changed the anchor.”
“That’s right. She’s the prettiest anchor in Fen Zhou City now.”
“I think she might be the prettiest in the country. Which TV station’s anchor is prettier than her?”
“Where did they get her? Did your dad mention it?”
“She is from Beijing and a replacement for the two anchors who fell sick.”
Dong Xuebing was puzzled. Fen Zhou City TV station had changed its news anchor? He felt had things had changed during the few days he was not around.
A while later, Dong Xuebing met the two youths in the stairwell. He had just moved in and did not know his neighbors. From their age, they should be some leaders’ family members or children. He smiled at them immediately.
Both youths smiled and nodded.
Home.
Dong Xuebing opened the door and shouted. “Huilan, I’m back. Huilan!”
Dong Xuebing changed to his slippers and looked around. Xie Huilan seemed to be out.
Where is she? Why did she go out on the weekends?
I had called and told her I was coming back.
Dong Xuebing was speechless and felt Huilan had no respect for him. She should have prepared food and the bathtub before he was home. But he did not dare to be angry with her as he did not know if she noticed anything about his relationship with Geng Yuehua. She should not notice anything, but she was the most intelligent and unpredictable woman he had ever met. He never knew what was going on in her mind.
Never mind.
I should rest first.
Dong Xuebing slumped into the sofa and used his toes to press the TV remote.
It was tiring after being so busy for so many days.
It was Fen Zhou City News on TV.
“We are reporting the latest update of the rebuilding after the earthquake. The factories near Xi Ping District East Road….”
Dong Xuebing was stunned when he heard this voice. He even forgot to light the cigarette in his mouth.
The news anchor on TV was stunning. She seemed to be in her early thirties and spoke gracefully. Finding another new anchor as pretty as her in the country is rare. TV stations usually pick news anchors based on their looks.
Dong Xuebing was not shocked by the news anchor’s looks. He was shocked because he knew the news anchor.
It was Qu Yunxuan!
Aunt Xuan had come to Fen Zhou City TV station.
Dong Xuebing was sweating. Yunxuan had mentioned coming to Fen Zhou City to work in a newspaper agency or TV station. She wanted her daughter to be nearer to him. He thought Aunt Xuan would wait until Qianqian was a few months old and did not expect her to arrive so early. She even becomes a news anchor.
Dong Xuebing looked at the top right corner of the TV screen, and it did not indicate it was live. This should have been recorded earlier.
Where is Aunt Xuan now?
What if she met with Huilan? Then it would be….
Dong Xuebing felt a chill down his spine. Although they had a five years agreement, anything might happen.
One is the City Deputy Mayor, and the other is a TV station News Anchor. Both were working in Fen Zhou City, and it was impossible for them not to meet. He only hopes they can be close, like when he ‘died’ from the air crash. He prayed everything would be fine.
Dong Xuebing pressed his palms together and mumbled a prayer.
The next moment, Dong Xuebing got shocked. A baby cried from inside the bedroom, making him jump.
What’s that sound?
Why did it sound like a baby’s cry?”
Dong Xuebing listened carefully. Damn! It’s a baby crying!
Dong Xuebing walked to the bedroom quickly and opened the door. A baby was lying in a baby pram.
The baby is Qianqian! His daughter!
Dong Xuebing quickly carried his daughter. “What’s wrong? Why are you crying? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Tell me what happened.”
Little Qianqian waved her tiny hands around as she bawled.
Dong Xuebing cuddled his daughter in his arms. “What happened? Oh, you wet yourself.”
Dong Xuebing was relieved Qianqian had only wet herself. Where could he find milk if she was hungry? He looked around and found a new diaper. He changed the diaper clumsily, and it took almost five minutes.
Little Qianqian was still crying, but her cries had become softer.
Dong Xuebing carried her to the living room and walked around anxiously.
Why did Yunxuan leave their daughter at home alone? What if anything happens to her?
Suddenly, Dong Xuebing realized a question. How did Qianqian appear in the house? How did Aunt Xuan get in?
Dong Xuebing took a deep breath and broke into a cold sweat.
Aunt Xuan had come, and Huilan should have met them. They might have gone out together, or Qianqian would not appear in his bedroom.
Oh shit!
