Chapter 1447: Overseas Inspection Delegation
Second day.
Sunday morning.
It was past six o'clock, and Dong Xuebing woke up. Opening his eyes, he saw the golden crystal chandelier above, but he sighed after yawning, feeling somewhat indifferent.
A new day.
The second day of the investment promotion conference.
Not sure how it will go today.
Dong Xuebing climbed out of bed, stepped barefoot on the soft floor, and entered the bathroom. After thoroughly was.h.i.+ng his face, he looked at himself in the mirror, sighed, and put on clothes. After fixing his hair, he felt something was off and changed into gray trousers and a white s.h.i.+rt. He was satisfied now. Regardless, he had to get going. Yesterday, he shouted at the staff for half a day. He had to show his enthusiasm; otherwise, everyone's mood would be affected. As the leader of the delegation from Zhen Shui County Investment Promotion Bureau, he had to set an example.
He pushed open the door.
"One, two, three."
"Like this, Director Chang?"
"Yes, lift your leg a bit higher."
"I can't, I'm not as flexible as you."
"You have to try to stretch your leg higher; otherwise, there won't be any exercise effect."
"Okay, I'll try. Ah, no, it hurts too much."
Dong Xuebing was stunned. Walking into the living room, he saw Chang Juan and Gong Na on the balcony, already exercising in the fresh air.
Interesting.
Hmm, quite eye-catching, too.
Dong Xuebing didn't say anything and watched them.
It seemed that Director Chang often did these exercises very skillfully. Presumably, it was for body maintenance. Sometimes, she stretched her arms, twisted her waist, and split her legs. There was a sense of rhythm and melody. One, two, one, two. Director Chang was doing exercises and chanting slogans, and Gong Na followed her. Neither of them had put on clothes yet, wearing tight-fitting workout pants. Director Chang had a white fitness tank top, wrapping her figure tightly. Gong Na wore a silk pajama, both mature and youthful. In the sunlight, they looked exceptionally beautiful.
One minute
Two minutes
Three minutes
Dong Xuebing was getting interested.
At this moment, Director Chang suddenly performed a difficult movement, crossing her legs and leading Gong Na to stretch their hands backward. Their heads and bodies tilted backward, and even though their posture wasn't very standard, it was at least meaningful. Moreover, in this nearly lying-down position, Dong Xuebing's attention was instantly drawn to the cleavage of the two women.
Director Chang's was a bit deeper.
Gong Na's was slightly shallower.
At the same time, in the line of sight of Director Chang and Gong Na, an inverted figure appeared Dong Xuebing, standing at the entrance of the presidential suite.
"Xuebing."
"Ah."
Gong Na blushed, quickly stood up, but then twisted her waist, wincing in pain.
Director Chang didn't feel embarra.s.sed. She slowly finished her movements and turned to Dong Xuebing, saying, "Up so early?"
Dong Xuebing nodded and smiled, "What are you two doing?"
Chang Juan smiled. "Practicing aerobics, learned it from TV."
Dong Xuebing said, "Health, that's good. Exercising more is beneficial."
Chang Juan said, "Yes, I do it every morning when I have time. It refreshes me."
Gong Na, recovering from the embarra.s.sment, coughed awkwardly and said, "Mayor Dong."
"Didn't fall, did you?" Dong Xuebing looked at her with concern.
Gong Na quickly shook her head, "No, no."
They entered the room from the balcony.
Dong Xuebing asked, "Have you both freshened up?"
"Finished." Chang Juan reached for the hair tie holding her ponytail.
"Okay, then I'll call for breakfast." Dong Xuebing grabbed the phone on the living room coffee table and informed the front desk. Although they wouldn't cater to other rooms, the presidential suite still received breakfast service. After all, with the high price, service was expected to be top-notch.
"Then we'll change first."
"Sure, go ahead. I'll have a smoke."
"No problem, we're used to it when you smoke."
After being in the impoverished county for so long, Dong Xuebing rarely enjoyed such a moment. He leaned back into the soft sofa, lit a cigarette, and started smoking.
After a while, breakfast arrived, and it was plentiful.
Chang Juan and Gong Na also came from the first lady's room.
Director Chang changed into a different colored long skirt, while Gong Na was dressed in a very serious suit, each one looking more charming than the other.
"Eat."
"Okay."
"Looks good."
"Yeah, the taste is fine."
The three sat together, enjoying breakfast and the scenic view from the high-rise building.
Dong Xuebing's initial irritability from waking up had disappeared, and his mood became serene.
However, a series of knocking on the door disturbed Dong Xuebing's enjoyment of watching Director Chang and Gong Na. Looking at the door, he asked, "Who is it?"
"It's me, Old Zheng."
"Oh, Old Zheng."
Gong Na quickly went to open the door. "Director Zheng."
Zheng Dayou nodded and walked in, followed by Chen Yunsong. "Mayor Dong."
Dong Xuebing looked at them. "Have you had breakfast?"
"We have, but I need to tell you something." Zheng Dayou said.
Seeing his serious expression, Dong Xuebing couldn't help asking, "What happened again?"
Zheng Dayou sat opposite Dong Xuebing. "It's not that something happened. Just now, Chen and I went downstairs for breakfast and heard something. A group of foreign investors has arrived in our province."
Dong Xuebing frowned. "Foreign investors?"
"Yes, the details are not clear yet, but the people from the Provincial Investment Promotion Bureau are welcoming them. After inquiring, they discovered that these investors are here to partic.i.p.ate in our Meihe City investment promotion conference. They are still in the provincial capital and should arrive by noon."
"Why is the province so concerned about these foreign investors?"
"I heard that they are all from large groups with a.s.sets exceeding hundreds of millions or even tens of billions. There are quite a few people, probably more than ten. They belong to the largest investment inspection group. The province naturally attaches great importance to them. I just don't know why these wealthy big bosses didn't go to the provincial capital or a first-tier city and chose to come to our Meihe City for research."
Dong Xuebing thought something serious had happened, but he wasn't very interested. "Probably just here for a look. In any case, it has nothing to do with our Zhen Shui County."
"Uh, maybe."
"Alright, let's get ready to go to the venue."
