Yin Chengan glanced at his watch. "It's getting late, let's go."

Han Fei stood up. "Director Dong, thank you for your hospitality."

"No problem," Dong Xuebing said. "Why don't you all stay here? There's plenty of room."

Yin Chengan shook his head. "Let's go back. I've already called for a car. It's not far. We'll be there in a few minutes."

Dong Xuebing didn't insist when he heard that. "Alright then. Feel free to come over anytime."

He then saw everyone off from the courtyard. The car they had called for had arrived and was waiting there.

After bidding farewell, Yin Chengan got into the car with He Zhou and Han Fei and drove off in the distance.

Once their car disappeared at the end of the alley, Dong Xuebing closed the courtyard gate and returned to his room. His head was spinning a bit. Although he hadn't drunk much today, mixing foreign liquor with Maotai wasn't pleasant. Dong Xuebing didn't have an exceptionally high alcohol tolerance. Sitting in his study, he turned on some music and closed his eyes, massaging his temples to sober up.

The phone suddenly rang.

"Hello, Sister Su."

"What are you doing, Xiaobing?"

"Hey, nothing much, just listening to music."

"Your colleagues have all left."

"Yeah, just finished dinner, and they left. How about you?"

"My friends have all left, too. I just had a few bottles of Maotai with you, and it's making me feel a bit guilty. But I won't be polite to you. I know you're rich and don't care about these few liquor bottles."

"I'm not rich. Even if I were, I'd still want to give my sister some face."

"You're so polite. How about I come over for a while?"

"Sure. I'm still early for bed, and nothing is going on at home."

"Alright then. Where are you now? Give me the address."

"I'm in the alley at Houtiao, No. 5 courtyard."

"I came to Beijing without a car, so I'll drive yours over. The key should be in the drawer, right?"

"Yes. That's right. You can drive it. My car got damaged today, so I must drive the Land Rover to work tomorrow."

"Okay. See you in a bit."

"Alright. You haven't been drinking, right?"

"No, I haven't. Don't worry. I won't get into any trouble."

Dong Xuebing turned off the music, no longer in the mood to listen. He went to tidy up the room, making it spotless and sweeping the floor. He was quite particular about appearances. Since someone was coming over, he wanted to make the place look nice. It wouldn't do to have a dirty house.

About twenty minutes later, the brakes outside sounded, and the Land Rover arrived.

Dong Xuebing was very familiar with the sound of his car. He could tell that Su Jia had come. He opened the door and went out to greet her.

"Sister Su."

"Hey, I'm here."

"Please come in quickly."

"I parked the car here for you."

"Okay, just leave it here."

Dong Xuebing led Su Jia inside. "It's been a long time since I last saw you. Has your internship ended?"

As they walked, Su Jia replied, "I finished my internship at Xinhua News Agency and even went abroad for a trip. Thanks to you for recommending me for that opportunity. I haven't properly thanked you yet."

“Look at you, exaggerating,” Dong Xuebing said.

"It's not an exaggeration. After this internship at Xinhua News Agency, I've gained some prestige. I performed quite well during the internship, and my main job is still at the TV station. My records are all at Yantai County Television Station. Later, Xinhua News Agency recommended me for an assessment at CCTV. There was a written test and an interview, and I barely passed. I should be moving to CCTV's headquarters in Huda in a few days, so I'll probably live in Beijing permanently. Then, I'll trouble you a lot." Su Jia said.

Dong Xuebing was taken aback. "CCTV is a great place."

Su Jia smiled. "Yes, it is. I don't know what exactly the job entails."

"Whatever it is, it's better than being at the county TV station." Dong Xuebing congratulated her. "Congratulations."

"Thanks to you," Su Jia said after entering the house. "Hmm, why is no one else living here but you?"

Dong Xuebing smiled. "Yeah, I just got this courtyard. It's pretty nice, so I moved in."

"You're quite something," Su Jia pointed at him. "Your fixed assets change every day. This courtyard must be worth several hundred million. You dare to buy it."

"Don't tell my mom. I want to surprise her when she comes over," Dong Xuebing said.

"That's not a surprise," Su Jia chuckled. "That's a shock. How many courtyards like this are left in Beijing? You're just making me envy you. No, I think I'll consider staying here tonight. There are plenty of rooms, and I've never lived in a courtyard house before."

Dong Xuebing didn't hesitate. "Sure, pick any room you like."

Su Jia looked around with great interest. "Come on, show me around."

Dong Xuebing chatted with her about work as they walked around, introducing her to each room.

After more than ten minutes, they both sat down in the study.

Su Jia looked stylish, unlike the outfit Dong Xuebing had seen her wearing in the villa. It seemed she had changed her clothes when she came out. Now, she wore dark green casual pants, a white sweater, black stockings wrapped around her feet, and black high heels. It was almost autumn, and the night was getting cold, but she still dressed warmly yet very fashionably. Especially her slim figure and slender legs looked remarkably smooth, exuding a charming feminine charm inside and out.

"Do you have any good movies, Xiaobing?"

"I'm not sure. There are quite a few on the computer."

"Since we have nothing to do, let's watch one together."

"Alright, they're all in the E drive. Let me do it."

"Hehe, are there any 'unsuitable' movies you don't want your sister to see?"

"Hey, there aren't. Don't talk like that. I'm not that kind of person."

Dong Xuebing blushed slightly as he found the movie folder with the mouse. Maybe it was because he had drunk too much, but he couldn't help stealing a few glances at Su Jia, who was sitting next to him. He looked at her beautiful feet, not-too-large chest, and pretty face.

Not bad.

Too bad she's my relative.

Dong Xuebing couldn't help but feel lustful, but since his mother and Uncle Yang had married, Su Jia had become his sister.

Perhaps Su Jia noticed. She smiled and gave him a playful glare. "What are you looking at? Are you interested in your sister?"
