Chapter 1725

Afternoon...

It was just before three o'clock.

At the Discipline Inspection Commission Family Compound.

Under the watchful eye of the saluting security guard, Dong Xuebing drove the Land Rover in and parked it under a building. As the car door opened, Dong Xuebing and Chen Ying exited and went upstairs.

Upstairs.

Inside the house.

Dong Xuebing used the key to open the door. "Please come in."

"This is your unit's dormitory?" Chen Ying looked around.

"Yeah," Dong Xuebing nodded. "It's a bit basic, but it's manageable."

"It's still better than the place I'm renting," Chen Ying said. She couldn't afford to buy a house with her fame not yet at its peak and not earning much. "Where's your spouse? Do you live alone?"

Chen Ying bent down and took off her high heels, slipping her feet, clad in sheer stockings, into a pair of pink cotton slippers on the shoe rack. She also took off her windbreaker and hung it aside. Chen Ying had never been a gorgeous female star, but her current popularity was undoubtedly related to her appearance. Although her face wasn't stunning, her overall demeanor and attitude were comfortable and pleasing. Dong Xuebing might not fully understand it, but he felt this way. He knew that Chen Ying was not conventionally beautiful. Yet, there was a distinct charm about her, especially with her well-proportioned figure—perky chest, shapely hips—revealed under the sweater, which emitted an alluring fragrance, especially her slender waist beneath that sweater.

Dong Xuebing glanced at her, swallowed hard, and said, "My spouse works in the South. I live alone." He quickly averted his gaze, feeling disrespectful.

Chen Ying just nodded and looked at him deeply, her expression unreadable.

Not minding her reaction, Dong Xuebing took off his shoes and coat. The room had heating, much warmer than outside. "Please sit anywhere. Would you like some tea?"

"Just herbal tea," Chen Ying replied.

"Herbal tea? I don't have any good ones here," Dong Xuebing said. "But any will do. I don't know much about them. Just something to drink and quench your thirst."

"Xuebing," Chen Ying called out.

"Tea's ready," Dong Xuebing said.

"Okay, great," Chen Ying replied.

Dong Xuebing changed the subject, avoiding further discussion. He still hadn't calmed down, so he couldn't respond to his old classmate.

The hot water was ready five minutes later, and the tea was brewed. Dong Xuebing didn't drink any himself; it was all prepared for Chen Ying. He carefully held the steaming teacup with both hands, blowing on it softly a few times. His hands were too hot, so he hurriedly walked to the living room, "Chen Ying, here you go. Have some tea while it's hot. Where did you go?"

The living room was empty. No one was there.

Dong Xuebing was puzzled, "Chen Ying?"

"Yeah," her voice unexpectedly came from the bedroom, "I'm here."

Dong Xuebing didn't think much of it. "Oh, why did you go to the bedroom? I'll bring it over."

"Okay," Chen Ying replied. The door was slightly ajar, revealing a narrow gap.

Dong Xuebing didn't think of anything else and cheerfully kicked the door open with his foot, stepping into the bedroom. But this time, as soon as he saw what was inside, he almost tripped and fell. His eyes went black for a moment.

"Oh my god, what's going on here?"

Chen Ying stood in the room. Strangely, she had taken off all her clothes. If it were just the outerwear, it would have been one thing, but she had even removed her inner garments, leaving her completely naked. Her pink bra and other items were all thrown onto the bed. It was a shocking sight that caught Dong Xuebing completely off guard. He almost dropped the tea he was holding.

Chen Ying looked directly at him with confidence, "Come here."

Dong Xuebing was stunned, nearly stumbling over his own feet. "What the hell are you doing, taking off your clothes in the dead of winter? What's gotten into you?"
