The Tempting Road to Becoming an Official

Chapter 258: A Man's Dignity


After a brief moment of startle,

Fan Xian's face turned red instantly.

She immediately gathered her overcoat closer.

Nervously, she said, "Ah Fang, don't get the wrong idea, I dressed like this because… because… anyway, I didn't come here to seduce you. If I have caused you any misunderstandings, I'll leave, I'll leave right now."

Having said that,

she started packing up in a fluster.

Chen Fang grabbed her hand in one swift motion and said, "Don't worry, I'll find some clothes for you."

After saying this, he found a suitcase, which contained a set of Song Lanre's pajamas. The two were about the same height, so they should fit.

Before long,

Chen Fang came out with a set of pajamas and said, "Try these on, I think they should fit quite well."

"Okay."

Fan Xian nodded and went into the bathroom with the pajamas.

After a while, she came out.

Chen Fang was stunned again.

The pajamas were made of very thin silk. Although they were not transparent, he had overlooked one thing: Fan Xian was not wearing a bra underneath, which caused the soft pajamas to cling to her breasts.

The outline of the 'grape' was clearly visible.

But it was still better than her wearing an overcoat.

"I'll make dumplings for you."

Fan Xian, noticing Chen Fang's peculiar gaze, felt a bit embarrassed and simply sat down to get busy.

For a while, there was silence.

About an hour later,

a pot of steaming dumplings was served on the table.

After being busy for half the day,

the sky outside gradually darkened.

Although fireworks were banned, the sound of firecrackers was still incessant.

"Do you have any wine?"

Looking at the steaming dumplings, Fan Xian asked.

Chen Fang frowned and said, "There is wine, but you've just had surgery, you can't drink."

"It's okay, I'll just have a little. My tolerance isn't good anyway,"

Fan Xian said.

Chen Fang saw the longing in her eyes.

He sighed, took out a bottle of white wine from the cupboard, and said, "I don't really drink, but I'll have a little with you today."

These words cheered up Fan Xian.

She served a few dumplings to Chen Fang and said, "Try these, see if they're good?"

Chen Fang took a bite and immediately was full of praise.

He continued to consume several more in quick succession.

Seeing Chen Fang enjoying them made Fan Xian smile with satisfaction.

The following time was for the New Year's Eve dinner. In fact, during the time Fan Xian was making dumplings, Chen Fang received several phone calls. They were from leaders in the bureau or some officials from Jinde County who invited him to dine with them. He knew they wanted to use the New Year's Eve as an opportunity to build relationships, but he declined them all.

He was very clear in his mind that the person who most needed comfort tonight was Fan Xian.

They drank and chatted, and Fan Xian's face gradually reddened.

Indeed, as she said,

she did not have much alcohol tolerance.

"Ah Fang, you actually had a place to go for dinner tonight, didn't you?"

Suddenly, Fan Xian asked.

Seeing through his guise, Chen Fang just smiled and said, "I prefer eating at home."

"Do you work for the government?"

"How did you know?"

Chen Fang asked.

Fan Xian pointed to the briefcase on the sofa and said, "This kind of bag is generally used by government employees, but looking at your bag, it seems quite old."

"Hmm, it used to belong to my godfather,"

Chen Fang said.

Fan Xian raised her glass and said, "Thank you for taking me in!"

"It's actually you, Sister Xian, who took me in, right? If it weren't for these dumplings, I wouldn't even know what to have for dinner today. It's been many years since I last had dumplings,"

Chen Fang said.

Fan Xian sighed deeply.

She asked, "Do you know why I wasn't wearing a bra today?"

Chen Fang nodded, saying, "I guess it must have been your husband who took it away."

Fan Xian was startled, asking, "How do you know?"

Chen Fang smiled and said, "I also know that your husband must be a very domineering person."

These words seemed to strike Fan Xian's weak spot once again.

She nodded vigorously, saying, "Yes, he is domineering, but he wasn't like this before. Ever since... since he started having erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation,he felt he had lost his male dignity. Whatever grievances he faced in life or at work, he would take them out on me."

So that was it.

Chen Fang thought of the words on her thigh, and instantly understood.

Indeed it was so.

Some men, due to their physical deficiencies, would develop many bizarre ideas, seemingly seeking to regain their confidence through such perverted means.

It was like in ancient times, when eunuchs lost their function in that respect, it didn't mean they lost desires; they would still engage with some palace maids—it was the same principle.

"Do you know? I came to Jinde County to clear my mind. Recently, his work has not been going well, so he's full of resentment, venting on me every night. I couldn't stand it, so I escaped for a breath of fresh air. If it hadn't been for you, I might have died yesterday,"

Fan Xian sighed as she spoke.

Chen Fang reassured, "No, even if you hadn't met me yesterday, someone else would have helped you. In any case, there are still more good people in this world."

"Anyway, you saved me, and I still need to thank you."

Fan Xian said with a smile.

The two clinked glasses again.

Chen Fang asked, "Sister Xian, yesterday... yesterday, I saw some words on your thigh. Were those left by your husband as well?"

Fan Xian's face turned red again.

She nodded and said, "Not just on my thighs, but many areas of my body. And it's written with a special kind of ink that I can't remove, no matter what I try. These words have been a source of great distress for me."

"Oh? Can I take a look? I might have a way to help."

Chen Fang said.

Fan Xian seemed quite surprised as she asked, "Really?"

"I can't guarantee, but we can give it a try."

Chen Fang said.

Fan Xian immediately turned around and partially pulled down her trousers, then lifted her shirt slightly. Before his eyes appeared the crookedly written four characters: "Welcome."

It seemed that Fan Xian's husband had indeed reached the brink of "perversion."

To write such words on his wife's body—it was baffling to think what he was thinking.

"Sister Xian, may I touch it?"

Chen Fang asked.

Fan Xian gave a hum from her throat, which was a permission.

When Chen Fang placed his fingers on it, Fan Xian shivered.

"This is just ordinary sangfroid black ink; it should come off."

This news instantly made Fan Xian happy.

She asked, "Can you remove it?"

"Of course, just give me a moment; I'll go mix a cleaning solution right now."

Having said that,

Chen Fang went into the bathroom.

It didn't take long before he came out with a bowl that contained a prepared solution.

He dipped a cotton swab into the liquid and rubbed it over the inked area. Soon, the stubborn black letters began to blur. Chen Fang wiped several times with a towel, leaving no trace at all.

Chen Fang found a mirror for Fan Xian to take a look.

Fan Xian was delighted like a child.

She asked, "I have some other words like this on my body; can you help me clean them all?"

"Of course, I can."

Chen Fang said.

Then,

Fan Xian lifted the hem of her trousers. After Chen Fang had cleaned the words on both her thighs, he asked, "Any others?"

"There are, only…"

Fan Xian's face turned red all at once.

Seeing her expression, Chen Fang knew that the other words were probably in more private areas.

But thinking of those humiliating words,

Fan Xian felt very uncomfortable.

She gritted her teeth and said, "It's fine, just help me clean it up."

Having said that,

She unbuttoned her blouse.

Two large "white rabbits" appeared before Chen Fang's eyes.
