Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband

Chapter 56 She Comes

“You’ve gone to C City?”

Xia Ning is slightly surprised. There is something wrong in Li Baoer’s tone. She doesn’t sound as active as before. Instead, it implies some other emotions.

“Hum, I am in C City. Sorry. I don’t feel well these days, so I didn’t inform you.”

“Oh. Commander Yi also went back?”

“Yes.”

It is silent for a while. Then, Li Baoer says, “Xia Ning, I want to tell you that Ou Yixuan is not the director now.”

“What? What happened?” Ou Yixuan is not the director. He has fought many years to earn this position!

“It is said that it has something to do with the incident related with you. Chairman Xiao is going to have an interior clean-up, so he is told to have a long holiday.”

“Well. How is he now?”

“Are you worried about him?”

“I am just curious. After all, I know him for a long time.”

“Oh. I am afraid that you still care for him. You scare me! He deserves it. Well, I have another thing to tell you.”

Xia Ning rolls her eyes, “Miss Li, when did you become so irresolute?”

“I am decisive in this thing! I quitted. I am not working in TIME now.”

Xia Ning is shocked, “Quitted? Do your parents know it?”

Gosh. The income of Li Baoer’s family is not good, and it totally depends on her. Why did she quit her job?

“They know. After that incident, I think my life is more important. B City is too complicated and I dare not to stay there any longer. Anyway, with my ability, I can work anywhere. I may go somewhere else to work.”

Xia Ning thinks for a while, “Do you want to work in C City? I am worrying that I don’t have any friends here. If you come here, we will be together again.”

“Miss Xia, Director Gu only admires you. Besides, there are so many talents in World Era TV Station. You know, I don’t have a good education background, so they will not have me.”

“When did you get to belittle yourself? Who knows what will happen in the future? Have a try first. Come to C City. You can try to hunt for a job. At least, you have me here. Don’t you?”

Li Baoer is quiet at the other end for quite a while. Then she takes a deep breath and says, “OK. Xia Ning. I agree with what you said. Even if the sky falls down, I gotta have a try first. I am coming tomorrow. You don’t hate my disturbing!”

“It is silly. I am happy that you can come. I will not hate you bothering me. When you arrive tomorrow, call me and I will go to pick you up. Well, do you have any place to stay in C City?”

“I have a classmate there. I will stay at her house for some days. After I get a job, I will move out to rent a house.”

“That will do. See you tomorrow.” Although the house here is big, she is married and it is not convenient to have her here. It’s good to arrange like this for now.

“Good. Well, bye.”

Li Baoer hangs up. Xia Ning smiles and puts her phone away.

“Is she coming tomorrow?” Yi Yunrui asks.

Xia Ning nods, “It was the kidnapping that influences her because of me. She is really not very happy working in Time these years. It may be better for her to have a change. I am really sorry for her.”

Yi Yunrui reaches his hand to stroke her forehead, “Li Baoer is a nice person. I am happy for you that she can come to C City.”

Xia Ning’s eyes brighten, “Rui, do you agree, too?” She was worrying that Yi Yunrui might not agree with that.

“You Little Fool, that is your friend. In addition, when I am not at home, you don’t have to stay alone now. Well. Are you going to pick her up tomorrow?”

“Hum.”

Yi Yunrui thinks for a while and says, “I am going to have a meeting tomorrow and will not have time for the whole day… Well, Dai Zhongheng happens to go to the airport tomorrow. I will ask him to drive you there.”

“It is no need. I may feel embarrassed to have Colonel Dai pick us up especially.”

“It is fine. I will arrange it.” Yi Yunrui pulls her to the bed and opens the quilt, “Come here to have a rest. Lunch will be ready when you wake up.”

It seems that the Army Commander is going to prepare lunch for her…

Xia Ning blinks her eyes, “Don’t you need to go to the Military Region today?”

“Hum. I will stay with you.” Saying this, he helps her take off the coat.

“Then…will you show me around downtown after lunch?” Tomorrow, Li Baoer will arrive. She wants to get familiar with the place first.

“OK.” Yi Yunrui responds quickly and helps her lie down.

The bed is big, soft and smells good. What is surprised is that she doesn’t feel sleepy, but she wants to close her eyes once lying down. She gives a great yawn.

Yi Yunrui looks at her lovingly with a pampering smile and covers the quilt for her.

He can’t help stroking her hair and looking at her for quite a while before he walks away.

Yi Yunrui glances at the clock on the wall. It is ten o’clock. He walks to the living room and opens the refrigerator when his phone rings. He looks at the phone. It is from the Military Region.

He frowns slightly and presses the button, “Hello, Commander.”

“You come back to C City? It is good. I am calling you to inform you of one thing. Political Commissar Xue is transferred to another department. A new political commissar is appointed to you. Seemingly you are familiar with each other…”

Xia Ning is awakened by the flavor of food. She opens her eyes. Smelling the flavor in the house, she feels her belly is crying for food.

She dresses up and walks out of the bedroom. The tall man is busy in the kitchen. She walks to the kitchen and stands behind him.

It is said that a man is most attractive when he is working hard. In her opinion, a cooking man is more attractive. Standing behind Yi Yunrui quietly, she looks at him quietly, lost in the scene.

The last dish is done. Yi Yunrui turns off the fire, turns to her and leads her to the running water.

He turns on the water, which is warm. He washes her hands carefully, “You have to wash your hand before eating. That is what a good kid does.”

Xia Ning laughs when hearing what Yi Yunrui says, “Mom, I know. I will wash my hands before eating.”

Yi Yunrui pauses and turns to her, “What are you calling me?”

“No, nothing.” Xia Ning pulls back her hands quickly. When she wants to wipe her hands, she finds the towels hanging on the wall are sharply white. She wonders which one is hers.

Yi Yunrui brings a towel to her. There is a snoopy printed on the towel. Xia Ning senses the embarrassment on her face.

Seemingly the great Army Commander treats her as a child.

He helps Xia Ning wipe her hands and hangs the towel. Then he holds out his hand and hugs her in his arms, “Tell me. What did you call me?”

Xia Ning forces a smile, “No… not really. Commander, you heard wrong.”

“The commander couldn’t hear wrong. Comrade Xia Ning, tell me the truth. Resistance will result in severe punishment.” Saying this, Yi Yunrui pinches her face softly.

“Can I appeal to higher class? You cannot force me to confess!”

“Force you to confess?” A smile of burlesque flashes in Yi Yunrui’s eyes, “You remind me. How can I forget this?”

Saying this, Yi Yunrui lowers his head and kisses the cutie in his embrace…

He was thinking of just giving her a little “punishment”, but once his lips touch hers, he feels her lips are just like a magnet, which made him get stuck with his. He simply cannot move his lips away from the soft and sweet ones.

Hugged by him tightly, Xia Ning can take no resisting actions. The intimate contact of their lips causes a warm flow in her body. She gets weak and leans on his chest, unconsciously responding to his kiss.

“Hum…” A soft cry from the throat shocks Yi Yunrui!

As if having made a big decision, Yi Yunrui closes his eyes. Though reluctantly, his lips leave hers. He takes a deep breath.

The desire flame is burning inside his body. If he doesn’t call a stop, they will have no lunch.

“I…take the food outside.” His low voice is a little hoarse. Yi Yunrui gives her a hug and turns to take the dish away.

Xia Ning leans on the wall. Her face is red, still panting with desire.

Half closing her eyes, Xia Ning looks blankly at Yi Yunrui, while he goes in and out and then finally goes to her and pinches her face softly.

“You Little Fool, what are you thinking of? We should have lunch.”

Yi Yunrui says. Xia Ning sees him pass in a flash and she is already carried by him to the living room in the next second.

C City is a centrally administered municipality. It is much more prosperous than B City. Yi Yunrui shows Xia Ning around many shopping malls and commercial streets.

They planned to be walking around, so they didn’t take Yi Yunrui’s monster car. After walking for two hours, Xia Ning is tired. They go to a coffee house and sit for a rest.

The shop clerk goes to them and politely asks, “What would you like to have?”

“A cup of cappuccino.” Yi Yunrui responds without thinking or looking at the menu.

Xia Ning blinks her eyes and smiles, “Two cups of hot cappuccino.”

“OK. What else would you like to have?”

Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning glance at each other. Xia Ning shakes her head, “It is enough for now.”

“Wait.” Yi Yunrui opens the menu and points at one of the photos, “Two pieces of tiramisu.”

“OK. In a minute.” The clerk leaves.

Soon, the coffee and tiramisu are served. Xia Ning takes a bite of the cake. She curiously looks at Yi Yunrui, “Excuse me. Commander, the cake is very sweet. Is it OK for you to eat?”

Yi Yunrui looks at her lovingly and takes a bite, too, “The Commander feels good. Sweetie, don’t worry.”

Xia Ning can’t help laughing. Suddenly she finds that Yi Yunrui is quietly staring at her. She is so shy. She blushes and turns her face away.

As a matter of fact, Yi Yunrui is a very handsome man. When they walk in the street, all the attention is attracted by him. She was not aware of that before. Now, looking at him face to face, she finds that he is really charming.

Her heart beats so quickly…

“Excuse me, would you mind my sitting here?”

A charismatic female voice rings. As if it is a thunder on the sunny day, Xia Ning is at once shocked to silence.”

It is her…it is her…that is the voice.

Xia Ning’s brain is blank. Her hand holding the cup shakes and the coffee pours out. But she does not realize that at all…
