What Dai Zhen says shocks Xia Ning in an instant.
Seemingly… what he says is right.
Even though her mother-in-law may dislike her for many reasons. But as reminded by her uncle, it looks really confusing.
Dai Zhen is aware of his niece’s confusion. He snorts. Then, he takes out his phone and dials the number in front of Yi Yunrui.
“Is that Zheng Yao? Hum. This is Dai Zhen. Well. Didn’t Yi Xian succeed in divorcing you? I think Yi Xian is out of his mind. If I were him, you would have been kicked away already!”
Hearing this, Xia Ning finds her hands sweat. She glances at Yi Yunrui. Yi Yunrui is silent. He slightly lifts his lips and puts on a mysterious smile.
Xia Ning feels her heart jump in a panic. She reaches to hold Yi Yunrui’s hand, wondering whether her husband will get angry.
Yi Yunrui turns to her and gently pats on her hand, “Sweetheart, it is all right.”
Dai Zhen glimpses the interactions of the couple. He puts down his hung leg and says, “Zheng Yao, listen to me. If you ever dare to bully my niece Xia Ning again, I will do the same to your son! You are in B City while I am in C City. If I want to do anything to your son, do you think you can avoid it? You’d better keep careful! It won’t work even if Yi Xian comes to ask for mercy for him! I have just kept your son standing for several hours outside the door! … I am still angry now. I don’t know how long he has to stand there. That is all!”
Then, Dai Zhen hangs up the phone.
It is in the Yi Villa in B City.
“Hello. Hey! Dai Zhen, you bastard!” Zhen Yao angrily drops her phone to the sofa. When she finds Yi Xian looking at her, she at once reduces most of her anger and murmurs, “Darling, it is Dai Zhen. He said that he would hurt Rui. Rui had been standing there for several hours … Darling, what can we do?”
“He may go on to stand there!”
Not expecting that her husband will reply directly in this way, Zhen Yao feels confused for a while. And then she says, “Darling, he is our son! How can you say so…”
“Well. Ning is Dai Zhen’s niece!” Yi Xian raises his voice a little, “When you scold Ning, doesn’t Dai Zhen feel angry? He is only told to stand, nothing serious! Compared with what you have done, it is nothing worth mentioning at all! Zheng Yao, you have to be cautious. Don’t forget what you have promised me today.”
Zheng Yao is speechless to hear the response. She feels displeased. However, she can’t but nod reluctantly.
“Just now, Ning apologized to you on TV. She has taken the initiative to retreat. You may drop all your so-called considerations in your mind! Go to meet the media and make an apology tomorrow!”
“Oh…” When she heard the sincere speech of Xia Ning on TV, she truly felt a little moved. Since Xia Ning has made the speech, it will be easier for her to make an open apology.
“Yao, Ning helped you avoid embarrassment. Do you understand? Till now, Ning is still considerate of you. Yao, as the hostess of the Yi family, the mother-in-law of her, you should show some dignity. Don’t make yourself a fun for others!”
Zheng Yao suddenly feels shocked! She tightly grabs her clothes. There are some changes gradually taking place in her heart.
It is in Dai’s mansion.
“Uncle, please don’t tell Rui to go out.” Xia Ning stands in front of Yi Yunrui and refuses to go away. She says, “Rui has stood there for several hours. He hasn’t had any supper. Uncle, … Rui doesn’t do anything wrong. Please don’t do this to him.”
Dai Zhen feels his heart softened when he hears his niece’s pleading. However, when he sees Yi Yunrui, he is reminded of what Zheng Yao has done and he feels furious again!
Isn’t Yi Yunrui just told to be standing there? It won’t kill him! He is an army man of the nation. There won’t be any problem for him to stand for several days, let alone a few hours. How harmful can it be?
“He has to stand there! Or, Zheng Yao will think that my niece can be bullied as she likes! Yi Yunrui, what are you doing here? Go out! If you don’t, don’t blame me for making you do it!”
Xia Ning finds her uncle decisive. She feels so worried that she turns around and tightly holds Yi Yunrui.
“You…” Dai Zhen is shocked. The old generals behind find the situation not good, they come forward to persuade Dai Zhen.
“Old friend, we are old men, don’t be childish. Anyway, your niece has got justice. You may leave the other issues for the young people to deal with.”
“That’s right. Don’t interfere with it. You are hypertensive. You are so furious. I am afraid of how high your blood pressure will be. You have just got reunited with your niece. And you are going to have grandchildren. How can you enjoy the joy of being a grandfather if you hurt yourself with anger?”
“Dai, let it end here. We, three friends are here. You may get mad at us if you want. Come on. Let’s go inside to have a drink!”
General Huang and General Li hold Dai Zhen and they go inside. General Huang waves his hand at Xia Ning and Yi Yunrui, motioning them to go away.
“Ning, I think you may go back to the downtown with Commander Yi for now. My father-in-law is still angry now. You may come back to talk with him after this is over.” Li Baoer says in a low voice.
“So, we just leave?” Xia Ning feels unsure, wondering whether his uncle will get angrier if they leave in this way.
“If you don’t go now, my father-in-law will kick Commander Yi away again when he sees him. It is fine. I will be here to support you. What I am best at is to say something to please someone else. I will totally convince my father-in-law. Don’t worry. Go.”
Xia Ning thinks for a while. As a matter of fact, the punishment of standing is really not a big deal. Her uncle punishes Yi Yunrui just in order to warn the Yi family. However, she is really worried about Yi Yunrui. If it is necessary, she would like to have the standing punishment with Yi Yunrui together.
And what’s more, Rui hasn’t had any supper.
“Sweetheart, we may leave for now and come back to take the punishments in two days.” Yi Yunrui has never been a deserter. However, he is going to be one this time. He knows that his wife will defend him, which will cause some conflicts between her and Dai Zhen. If he is not here, it won’t be so tough for his wife.
Xia Ning nods. They are out of options now.
Thirty minutes later, Xia Ning and Yi Yunrui come back to the downtown. Yi Yunrui finds that his wife is worried all the way. He plans that they may have supper outside before going home. It is time for his wife to have supper. So, they pull off in front of a restaurant providing noodles with soybean paste.
“Do you like to have noodles with soybean paste?”
Ever since she is pregnant, she always asks the baby’s opinion before eating. She smells the noodles and doesn’t feel sick. She nods, “It is good.”
They order two big portions of noodles with soybean paste and some appetizing dishes and start their late dinner.
When they are eating, Xia Ning suddenly remembers something. She asks, “Oh, I haven’t seen Zhang Hai for a while.”
“He is busy helping An Zihao.”
Xia Ning remembers that An Zihao asked for a favor two days ago. She lowers her voice and asks, “Darling, did Zhang Hai tell you what An Zihao asked him to do?”
Yi Yunrui hesitates for a while. He says meaningfully, “Sweetheart, it is not for a child to know. You’d better not ask about that.”
Xia Ning blinks her eyes, feeling really confused.
Why did he say it was not for a child to know?
Yi Yunrui is aware of his wife’s curiosity. He makes a cough and can’t help responding, “Jiang Yongran controls the videos of several hundred gigabytes in An Zihao’s computer. Now, Zhang Hai is busy helping An Zihao to break the code.”
The video of several hundred gigabytes… In an instant, Xia Ning understands and she blushes!
Oh, god! Men have the same taste. She wished she didn’t ask!
Leng Weiwei has drunk quite a lot in the business dinner. When she walks out of the restaurant, she staggers. She can’t drive. She will need to go home by taxi.
“Chief Editor Leng.”
Someone calls behind. Leng Weiwei frowns.
It is the boss of a big enterprise. His surname is Zhang. He has an oily face and his belly is even bigger than that of a ten-month pregnant woman. It was this man who made her drink a lot of wine.
Leng Weiwei restrains the sense of disgust. She adjusts her expression and turns to say with a smile, “Mr. Zhang, what’s the matter?”
“Weiwei, you drank too much. I can give you a ride.”
A driver is behind him. Mr. Zhang lifts his fat hand and wants to hold Leng Weiwei’s milky arm.
Leng Weiwei takes a step backward to avoid his hand. She still keeps the smile on her face and politely responds, “Thank you, Mr. Zhang. I can go by taxi.”
Does he want to give her a ride? Seemingly, he wants to figure out where she lives!
Or, he may drive her directly to some hotel and find some reasons to have sex with her. Leng Weiwei has been working for so many years. She is very familiar with what a man can do.
“How can you do that? It is so late. If you go alone, I will be worried about you. What if something happens? Weiwei, come on.” He says and holds out his hand again. This time, he goes even further. He directly tries to hold Leng Weiwei’s waist.
What is behind her is the road and there is no space for her to step backward. Leng Weiwei holds out her hand to stop his. She says in a cold voice, “Mr. Zhang, I am fine. You may go home.”
This is the last warning of Leng Weiwei.
If Mr. Zhang goes on doing anything alike, she won’t mind giving him a lesson.
She can surely secretly attack the fat man without revealing her real skills. He will totally be unaware of how he dies.
Mr. Zhang glances at his hand. He screws his eyes which are as small as mung beans. Male hormones rapidly increase.
He likes women of strong temper!
“Chief Editor Leng, you are too polite. I have a familiar feeling for you. I admire your personality. And you are such a beautiful woman. I am really afraid that something may happen to you later. Weiwei, I am so much older than you. I am not a bad guy. You don’t take it wrong.”
Mr. Zhang says and goes closer to Leng Weiwei. Leng Weiwei lifts her eyebrows and gets ready to take action.
Suddenly, a silver Lamborghini pulls up in front of Leng Weiwei and Mr. Zhang. It is a style of limited edition recently put to the market. It is not something to be bought with money only.
Seeing this car, Mr. Zhang widens his small eyes blankly. He has a big enterprise. However, it will be very difficult for him to buy such a car.
He dreams of having such a fancy car!
The window goes down. The man sitting inside is in white casual clothes. It is at night, but he wears big sunglasses. He looks dignified but lazy.
The man holds out his hand a little and crooks his fingers at Leng Weiwei, “Woman, get in the car!”
The words are simple. But they sound overwhelmingly powerful. Mr. Zhang doesn’t see the man’s face clearly. However, he feels very diffident. He even doesn’t dare to lift his head to look at him.
It is the first time for Mr. Zhang to seriously feel diffident.
