Chapter 567: It is impolite not to return the favor!

Evening.

7 pm.

Dong Xuebing is having dinner with his mother. He pulled a long face and kept quiet as he ate.

“Xiao Bing, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing…”

“Everything is written on your face. Who had offended you again?”

“It’s an old bastard, Chu Qinghua!”

“You are scolding others again. Why is your temper so foul?”

“It’s not my fault.” Dong Xuebing banged the table. “I called Chu Qinghua to inform him about the Central Government’s inspection team arrival and asked them to get ready. But he did not even thank me and hung up on me! What did I do wrong?”

Luan Xiaoping frowned. “Why are there such people?”

“This is not everything. He did not invite me to his son’s wedding banquet a few days ago. I passed by the restaurant and went in to congratulate him with one of my subordinates. I am giving him face by congratulating him, but guess what. He backstabbed me. He knew I was unfamiliar with the dishes at this restaurant and let them serve a plate of soybean residues. This caused me to offend our District Party Secretary’s wife and the District Mayor. This is how despicable he is, and that was not the only time! He had tried framing me again and again!”

Luan Xiaoping kept quiet.

Dong Xuebing’s patience has a limit. This is the third time Chu Qinghua had provoked him!

F*CK!

You think you can backstab and frame me again and again?

Fine! I shall show you my true colors today!

Dong Xuebing returns to his bedroom after dinner and switches on his laptop. He searched for the National Respect and Cared for the elderly’s model unit awards information online. You want to get this award? Fine! I will return the favor and give you a surprise! I shall see if your Subdistrict can pass the Central Government’s Inspection!

One minute….

Five minutes….

Ten minutes….

Dong Xuebing is typing on the keyboard while his mother starts to clean up the apartment.

“Son, do you still want to keep the newspaper in the cabinet?”

“Which date is it?”

“Oh, these are last year’s papers. It’s been a few months.”

“No need. The previous Party Secretary must have left those behind.”

“Eh? This article is about Ping An Subdistrict’s nursing home. Xiao Bing, come and see.”

Dong Xuebing walks to the living room. “What is it?” He took the Fen Zhou Daily from his mother.

The header on the third page is <Missing elderly from the nursing home. Who should be responsible?>.

The report is about an incident that happened in a nursing home located in Nan Shan District, Ping An Subdistrict. This newspaper is around four to five months old, and this incident happened last year. A resident, Su Xiaochun, had sent her mother to a nursing home in Ping An Subdistrict. Her mother has dementia, and she had reminded the nursing home about her condition. But three days later, Su Xiaochun’s mother went missing. They reported to the police, and she was still missing after one month. Su Xiaochun returned to the nursing to demand an explanation and compensation. But the nursing home insisted they were not responsible for this incident and refused to compensate her.

Luan Xiaoping is mad after reading this article. “They are shirking responsibility! How can a nursing home do this?”

Dong Xuebing agrees with his mother. How can this nursing home avoid responsibility, and Ping An Subdistrict still dares to apply to be nominated for the National Respect and Care for the elderly’s model unit?!

Dong Xuebing took the newspaper back to his room and called Su Jia.

“Hello, Xuebing?”

“Sister Su, are you still at work? I need your help.”

“Haha… I’m working overtime and am still in the office. What is it?”

“I have a copy of 7th January Fen Zhou Daily papers with me, and I need your help to check on one article.” Dong Xuebing briefly asks about the article and hangs up.

A few minutes later, Su Jia called.

It’s been six months, and Su Xiaochun’s mother is still missing. The nursing home made compensated 10,000 RMB out of goodwill, but it’s too little. They are not even sincere about it as they refuse to admit it was their fault. Su Xiaochun and her family had gone to the nursing home a few times but could not get any explanation from them.

“Do you have Su Xiaochun’s contact number?”

“Yes.” Su Jia told Dong Xuebing the number recorded in the files.

“Thanks, Sis.”

Dong Xuebing looked at the phone number and checked his phone’s contacts. In the end, he called Guo Panwei.

“Panwei, I need you to do something for me.”

“Say it! I promise to get it done!” Guo Panwei’s tone is still respectful towards Dong Xuebing.

Dong Xuebing felt good and told him about his plan. He even repeated his instructions twice.

7.30 pm.

Ping An Subdistrict, a residential building in Mei Zhuang Neighborhood.

Su Xiaochun, in her forties, is watching TV with her husband. There is no more laughter in the house since her mother went missing six months ago. She regretted sending her mother to the nursing home. If she had not sent her mother to the nursing home, she would not have gone missing.

Ring… ring… ring… the house phone rang.

Su Xiaochun answered. “Hello.”

A man said. “Are you Ms. Su Xiaochun?”

“Who are you?”

“I am a reporter from Nan Qi Morning papers and would like to conduct a phone interview with you. Can I take up a few minutes of your time?”

“Reporter? What is it?”

“It’s like this. I heard that your mother is still missing, and the case is not settled. Has Mei Zhuang Nursing Home given you any explanation? The Central Government’s inspection team for the National Respect and Care for the elderly’s model unit awards had arrived, and Ping An Subdistrict is selected to be nominated for this award. Do you have anything to say about this?”

“What?!” Su Xiaochun exploded. “They still want to be the model unit?! My mother is still missing! They still cannot locate my mother!”

Su Xiaochun’s husband looks at her. “Xiao Chun, what happened?”

Su Xiaochun hung up the phone in anger. “The Central Government Leaders are here! I must get them to give me an explanation this time!”
