Chapter 888: Little Qianqian became a star

Morning.

Inspection First Office, Dong Xuebing’s office.

Dong Xuebing pulled back his finger and wiped it secretly with a tissue. It was awkward, and he changed the topic. “Oh, Sister Liu. I noticed many people talking about me on my way to work. What happened?”

Luo Haiting smiled. “Can I don’t say it?”

“Tell me.” Dong Xuebing looked at Luo Haiting. “There’s nothing to hide between us.”

Luo Haiting hesitated for a second and giggled. “I heard they call you the God of Plagues behind your back.”

Dong Xuebing was speechless. “God of Plagues?” Why did my nickname come back again?

Dong Xuebing knew this was because of Wan Sizhao and Li Taibo’s incident. It made him notorious again. Many people must have asked about him during his time in Yan Tai County and Nan Shan District. He was frustrated and felt this nickname would stick to him for life.

Dong Xuebing replied helplessly. “No wonder everyone was looking at me this morning.”

Luo Haiting looked at Dong Xuebing, “They are spreading rumors about you. You should understand the people in the Government Service well. They will exaggerate the rumors.”

Dong Xuebing waved his hand. “Let them be. This is not the first time I am called the God of Plagues.”

Luo Haiting tried her best not to laugh and was about to say something when she heard a baby cry. She was surprised and saw a baby on the sofa. “Eh? Xuebing, this….”

“My god-daughter.” Dong Xuebing took out a diaper from his bag and walked over. “I think she wet herself again. Sigh…. She can’t let me have a moment of peace.”

“Let me do it.”

“No need.”

“It’s fine. I like babies. Haha….” ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ Noᴠel Fɪre.net

Luo Haiting took the diaper from Dong Xuebing and helped Little Qianqian change it. “How old is she? What’s her name?”

“She is around 100 days old. Her name is Qu Qian.”

“It’s a nice name, and she is pretty.”

“Haha…. She is cute and looks like Yunxuan.”

“Why are you looking after her? It’s tiring to look after a baby.”

“Yes. Yunxuan is hospitalized, and she doesn’t have any relatives here. I got to look after her baby as I can’t leave her at home alone.”

Luo Haiting seemed to like Little Qianqian and started playing with her. She teased her with her doll. “Do you want this?”

Little Qianqian reached out for her doll and shouted anxiously.

Luo Haiting gave the doll back to Little Qianqian and kissed her cheeks. “You are so pretty. Do you want to come with me?”

“Aah… ya….”

“This means you agree? Do you want me to bring you home?”

“Ahh… ooh….”

Little Qianqian was playful and liked to grab Luo Haiting’s clothes when she carried her.

Luo Haiting kissed Little Qianqian again. “This little fellow is so cute.”

Dong Xuebing laughed. “She is not afraid of strangers.”

Luo Haiting smiled. “I can tell. She will be a beauty when she grows up. Haha…. Xuebing, I can help if you are tired from looking after her. I brought up my son alone, and I am more experienced than you.”

Dong Xuebing replied. “Sure. I will trouble you if I can’t handle her.”

Luo Haiting continued playing with Little Qianqian and did not want to leave Dong Xuebing’s office.

News of Inspection First Office’s Director Dong brings a cute baby to work spread across the Discipline Inspection. Other people would never bring a child to work as it would affect others. The Leaders would not like it too. But Dong Xuebing was different. He was one of the Leaders in Discipline Inspection, and leaders have special privileges. They can be late or leave early and bring their children to work. This was not possible for staff members.

Noon.

Lunchtime.

Dong Xuebing returned to his office after lunch and was about to prepare milk for Little Qianqian. Someone knocked on his door, and Complain Department Director Liang Xuan entered.

“Director Liang.” Dong Xuebing smiled. “Are you looking for me?”

Liang Xuan smiled. “I heard you had brought your god-daughter to work, and she is adorable. Haha…. I am here to see her.”

Dong Xuebing was amused. “Sister Luan, do you like children too?”

“I love them, and I wish I could have another child. Ah…. This must be Little Qianqian.” Liang Xuan looked at the baby on the sofa. “Director Dong, can I carry her for a while?”

Dong Xuebing replied. “Of course.”

Liang Xuan carried Little Qianqian in her arms carefully. She smiled. “She is so cute, and she got big eyes. She would be sweeping men off their feet when she grows up.”

Little Qianqian made baby noises as she tried to grab Liang Xuan’s hair.

Liang Xuan avoided Little Qianqian’s hand. “Hehe… you want to grab my hair?”

Dong Xuebing finished preparing Little Qianqian’s milk. “Little fellow, your milk is ready.”

“Let me do it.” Liang Xuan took the milk bottle from Dong Xuebing and tested the temperature. “It’s too hot. You got to let it cool by a few degrees first.”

Dong Xuebing asked. “What should be the right temperature?”

Liang Xuan replied. “It should feel warm and not hot when you hold it during winter. The milk cannot be too hot as babies cannot take it.”

Dong Xuebing nodded and remembered it.

After lunchtime.

Dong Xuebing carried his daughter out for a walk to get some sun.

When Dong Xuebing appeared in the corridor, he was surrounded by Discipline Inspection Leaders and staff members. Most of them are female, and they want to play with Qianqian. Some might be doing this as an excuse to talk to the leaders or suck up to him.

Regardless, Dong Xuebing felt good when he saw Little Qianqian was popular among his colleagues. He smiled and chatted with everyone.

Little Qianqian was overjoyed as she played with everyone.

Dong Xuebing let Little Qianqian play until she got tired and brought her back to his office. He stroked her head and smiled. “Look at you. You are so popular. Just like a movie star. Haha….”
