Chapter 284: The Great Development (Part 2)

Although Hou Weidong had taken hangover medicine, his head still felt like it was splitting open. When Li Jing asked about the previous night, he answered vaguely, “Professor Guo’s daughter.”

Li Jing possessed a woman’s innate intuition. Looking at the drunken Hou Weidong, she thought to herself, “This Guo Lan definitely has something going on with Hou Weidong; her eyes didn’t lie to me.” She pinched Hou Weidong’s nose and teased, “Playboy, with many lovers.”

Hou Weidong turned his head away and said, “Don’t talk nonsense. Don’t imagine things that aren’t there.”

Li Jing was just making conversation and didn’t take it to heart. She leaned over to buckle Hou Weidong’s seatbelt, turned down the music, and then merged onto the highway.

When Hou Weidong opened his eyes, they had already arrived at the Shazhou branch of Jinggong Group. Waiting for them was a petite lady, Li Jing’s private administrative assistant and a veteran employee who had been with Li Jing since the days at Shatou Company. As soon as Li Jing got out of the car, the assistant greeted her, saying, “The masseur has arrived.”

Li Jing nodded and said, “Arrange for some mung bean soup to be sent up later.” She then turned to Hou Weidong, who was rubbing his temples, and said, “I’ve hired a professional masseur. You’ll have to endure it; it will be painful, but it’s very effective.” Hou Weidong recalled the time he had gone for a massage with Zhu Yan and had been made to cry out in pain by the masseur. He said, “If I scream later, don’t laugh at me.”

Under the streetlights, Li Jing looked particularly graceful and well-proportioned. Hou Weidong knew what would happen after the massage. Thinking of how Li Jing’s body had trembled uncontrollably in excitement last time, his desire was instantly aroused.

Following the attendant up to the third floor and through a small door at the far end, they entered a simply furnished rest room. A tall man was drinking tea and watching TV; he was the sports-trained masseur. He had already forgotten about Hou Weidong. Before starting work, he said, “I used to massage athletes, so my technique is fine. If you can’t stand it, just let me know.”

At this moment, Hou Weidong was still suffering from a throbbing headache. He said, “I drank too much; my head is swollen.” The man smiled slightly and said, “You’ll feel much better once the massage is over.”

Li Jing, wearing a thin nightgown, waited anxiously upstairs. She sat in the living room, constantly changing TV channels. Glancing at the wall clock from time to time, she couldn’t help but mock herself: “I used to look down on men, but now I’ve become a hopeless romantic. I brought Hou Weidong all the way from Yiyang just to wait for sex with him.”

The establishment of Jinggong Group marked the return on Li Jing’s ten years of struggle, effort, and sacrifice. From then on, she was no longer a drifting duckweed selling smiles and her body everywhere; she was a respectable entrepreneur. It was from that day onward that she only spent time with people she liked.

Hou Weidong was the man who made her lose herself in ecstasy. Because of this, she considered every detail carefully and took excellent care of him.

After the mung bean soup was served, Hou Weidong still hadn’t come up. She even considered going down to check on him. Just as she was lost in thought, the doorbell rang.

Li Jing was very gentle. “Are you feeling better now?” Hou Weidong read the longing in her watery eyes and said, “My head doesn’t hurt anymore, but my muscles do. This masseur is too strong, but the effect is truly good.”

Watching Hou Weidong finish the mung bean soup, Li Jing added, “Go take a shower.” After all that折腾 (tossing and turning), Hou Weidong was mostly sober, and his spirits had lifted. Looking at Li Jing’s semi-visible body, he deliberately said with a lecherous look, “I want to take a鸳鸯 bath (couple’s bath).”

Li Jing was quite pleased with the suggestion. She deliberately said, “As soon as you’re sober, you start having wild thoughts.” Although she said this, her eyes were as soft as water, fixed on Hou Weidong, and she shifted restlessly.

With warmth in his arms, Hou Weidong was moved to action. He pulled Li Jing into his embrace, and his hands slipped inside her nightgown. Li Jing knew how to enjoy herself; she proactively sat on Hou Weidong’s lap, tilted her head back, and rested it on his shoulder. This position gave her beloved man maximum convenience.

His hands explored up and down along her smooth curves. Soon, one hand moved between her two snow-white, pointed peaks, while the other sought the path in the valley.

When the path became damp, Li Jing whispered in Hou Weidong’s ear, “Stop teasing. Let’s go to the bathroom and wash first.”

Hou Weidong had long cast aside his drunkenness. He carried Li Jing to the bathroom and saw that the bathtub was already filled with water. He tested the temperature with his hand; it was just right. Biting Li Jing’s ear, he said, “Did you miss me? Was this water prepared for me?”

Li Jing’s desire had already filled her body. One hand grasped the tent that had risen, and she said, “I’ve missed you every day since that day. Now that I’ve caught you, you can’t slack off.”

When Hou Weidong was with Duan Ying, he always felt a sense of guilt. But with Li Jing, he felt exceptionally relaxed. Pure pleasure could also bring great spiritual joy. He patted Li Jing’s elastic buttocks and said, “Lie here, and I’ll serve you.”

Li Jing was very obedient. She supported herself with her hands on the edge of the bathtub, lowered her waist, and raised her hips, forming a beautiful arc.

Hou Weidong’s body burned like fire. He took the showerhead, adjusted the water temperature to be slightly hot, and let his fingers follow the hot water, constantly invading Li Jing’s body.

When the hot water sprayed onto the lower part of Li Jing’s body, she couldn’t help but shiver all over. Her lower abdomen tightened, and her rounded curves swayed more noticeably under Hou Weidong’s movements.

Hou Weidong used his index finger to tease along with the water flow. Li Jing bit her lip and endured for a while before finally crying out, “My enemy, Sun Wukong, come in quickly.”

“White Bone Demon, I’m coming.”

When everything had calmed down, the red flush on Li Jing’s body had not yet faded. Resting her head on Hou Weidong’s arm, she said, “I think you were pretending to be drunk. You hurt me.”

“Then, I’ll be gentler.”

“No, I like it this way.”

After chatting for a while, the two fell into a deep sleep. The next morning, when the first rays of sunlight shone through the glass and onto Li Jing, her skin was like jade, and the scene was picturesque.

After the excessive passion of the previous night, they were calm and composed in the morning. After hugging for a while, they got up to eat breakfast. The administrative assistant, being an experienced person, had someone send up a large bowl of beef noodles and a glass of milk, with an egg at the bottom of the bowl.

The TV was broadcasting current affairs. The screen showed news from Thailand. The Thai government had used $5 billion in foreign exchange reserves and $20 billion to intervene in the currency market, but the Thai baht continued to slide. The names of George Soros and Quantum Fund also appeared.

Hou Weidong remembered what Yao Qiang from Lingxi Construction Company had said. He said, “Could this turmoil affect the domestic situation? The tight monetary policy will have a significant impact on real estate. The development by the New Management Committee will face problems.”

Li Jing, being involved in the Lingxi business circle, had a wide range of contacts and was aware of the financial crisis in Thailand. After thinking for a moment, she said, “I’ve heard that foreign trade enterprises have been greatly affected. The inventory of many clothing companies has increased significantly, and the activities of the model team have been directly impacted. Other adverse effects haven’t been discovered yet.”

“My second sister is in foreign trade. She might be affected this time.” Hou Weidong called his second sister, Hou Xiaoying.

Second Sister Hou Xiaoying complained like Xianglin’s Wife: “Little Third, why am I so unlucky? Just as business was starting to improve, this happened. Business has completely stalled, and the rented warehouse is full.”

Hou Weidong was completely inexperienced in the silk business and couldn’t offer any good advice. He comforted her, “If it really doesn’t work out, switch to another business. I’ll get you a piece of land, and you can do real estate.”

Hou Xiaoying and He Yong had tried every trick in the book, but with the general situation being so bad, they were like a leaf floating in the waves, unable to control their own destiny. Hearing Hou Weidong’s suggestion, Hou Xiaoying disdainfully said, “Building houses in Yiyang? Who would I sell them to? Forget it. For now, I can only endure with my brother-in-law and wait for the international situation to improve.”

She sighed, “Different trades are like different mountains. Let’s talk in detail when I have time. Your brother-in-law is under a lot of pressure these days. Sigh.”

After hanging up the phone, Hou Weidong shook his head. “Second Sister and Brother-in-law are really having a run of bad luck. The foundation cleanup affected them, He Yong stayed in the study class for over two months, and just as business was picking up, the international environment worsened.”

The redness on Li Jing’s face had not yet faded, adding to her femininity. She said, “The clothing industry is sluggish, and the model team doesn’t have much to do. I’m thinking of disbanding the team, but I feel sorry for these young girls. This incident has also taught me a lesson: biting off more than you can chew. In the future, Jinggong Group should focus on roads and bridges, and we can appropriately venture into real estate.”

“If you come to the New Management Committee in Yiyang to buy land, I welcome you.”

Li Jing said seriously, “Feelings are feelings, business is business. Even if Jinggong Group wants to do real estate, it should at least be in cities at the prefecture level or above. My target is still Lingxi.”

“The land of the New Management Committee is a wealth. Yao Qiang from Lingxi Construction Group has already come to look at it, and you still look down on it.”

“The name Jinggong Group is big, but its strength is weak. I dare not open fronts everywhere. The main business is still roads and bridges. Forget it, let’s talk about it after Yiyang heats up.”

After eating noodles and chatting for a while, it was nearly nine o’clock. Office assistant Yang Liu had请示 (requested instructions) on several matters. Hou Weidong said, “I’m preparing to return to Yiyang. The New Management Committee’s affairs need to be properly guarded.”

Li Jing did not try to keep him. As the chairman of the group, she also had a pile of things waiting for her.

At the time of parting, the two lingered on the wide sofa for a while. Li Jing felt that a certain part of Hou Weidong’s body had changed again. She knelt on the sofa and slowly sucked the hot and hard member with her mouth.
