Tang Qieying sincerely bows to the audiences. She doesn’t lift herself for quite a while.
People are silent on the TV. Even the noisy restaurant turns quiet at once. After a while, someone cries out loudly, “Ying, it is not your fault! You don’t need to apologize!”
The words explode like a bomb from the deep sea and shock everyone. More and more people cry to support Tang Qieying. And more and more people appeal for justice for her.
Tang Qieying is aware of the sentiment of the audience. She lifts herself with tears in her bright eyes. She says, “Thank you. Thank you all for your understanding and support. Thank you…”
“The perpetrator should be punished!”
“Ying, don’t cry. It is not your fault!”
“We will find the justice for you!”
“Ying, don’t cry. We love you as ever…”
People cry loudly to support Tang Qieying. The voices echo. Seeing this scene, Xia Ning gives a sigh of relief.
Tang Qieying is taking a risky step. She confesses everything frankly. If the audience didn’t believe her, it would be a really serious trouble.
“Everyone, there is something else I want to say. I want to say sorry to one of my good friends, Xia, who was blamed in the recent reports. Xia, I know that you didn’t do it. Everything is clear now. You didn’t do it. You were wronged these days. I know you were wronged. My dear friends, please don’t blame Xia again. Some people in the entertainment circle like creating trouble. I hope everyone can wipe your eyes to see the truth. Please don’t be used by others. Don’t hurt the innocent people again.”
Xia Ning doesn’t expect that Tang Qieying will appeal for justice for her at the press conference. She is shocked by surprise.
Then, she feels deeply moved!
In this world, many people are very kind-hearted!
It is a cruel world, but … there are still kind people here.
Xia Ning hears her sob in her throat. She covers her mouth with her hand at once to stop sobbing. She appreciates Tang Qieying. She feels grateful!
Thank you! Ms. Tang!
“Sweetheart.” Yi Yunrui calls and he holds out his hand to her. He holds his wife’s hand tightly in his palm, “It is over. We all will be with you and support you.”
Xia Ning can’t speak a word. Instead, she seriously nods.
They support each other, comfort each other and share the warmth with each other. In that way, they will be able to carry on the rest of their life together.
Xia Ning takes some deep breaths. She turns to Yi Yunrui and says, “Darling, excuse me. I need to go to the washing room.”
Yi Yunrui nods, “Go ahead.”
“Hum.” Xia Ning responds and turns to leave the table.
Soon after Xia Ning leaves, Yi Yunrui glances at somewhere and someone goes to follow Xia Ning at once.
What happened to Tang Qieying will never happen to Ning! He doesn’t allow it!
When he is absent, he has to ensure that his wife will be protected by others.
Yi Yunrui takes up the coffee for a sip. When he puts down the cup, he finds someone walking to him.
It is a woman. She wears very fashionable clothes.
“Hi.” The woman cheerfully greets him and passes her business card to him, “I am a talent scout from Diwang Group Entertainment Company. My surname is Chen. May I know your name?”
Yi Yunrui doesn’t take the card from Miss Chen. Miss Chen feels a little embarrassed. She puts her business card on the table and pushes it to Yi Yunrui.
“Mister, excuse me.” Miss Chen smiles to continue, “First of all, I may explain. I am not from a pyramid selling company or any illegal institutions. Mister, you must have heard of Diwang Group Entertainment Company. Many famous movie stars are from our company. You can search the information on the internet.”
Yi Yunrui looks at Miss Chen. He briefly responds, “Excuse me. I am waiting for my wife.”
Hearing the word Wife, Miss Chen’s bright eyes obviously lose their brightness. However, she doesn’t give up, “Mister, you look excellent in both your body shape and your manner. If you agree to join Diwang Group, we will do what we can to make you one of the most popular stars. You can think carefully about it. This is my phone number…”
“Married people can also join the entertainment business?” Yi Yunrui lifts his eyebrows to ask.
“There may be problems for other married people, but not for you. Mister, you don’t need to worry about that at all. The company will take care of the relative issues. As long as you don’t tell other people openly that you are married, there won’t be any problems at all.”
Yi Yunrui slightly lifts his thin lips. He smiles, “My wife is most important to me. I am afraid that I can’t meet your requirement.”
Miss Chen still wants to say something when Xia Ning comes back. Xia Ning has not sat down while Yi Yunrui reaches to hold her hand. After she sits on the seat, Yi Yunrui says, “Sweetheart, let me introduce to you. This is Miss Chen, your subordinate.”
Hearing this, Miss Chen feels shocked all of a sudden!
Subordinate?
Xia Ning also feels confused. When she reads the business card on the table, she finally understands.
Diwang Group Entertainment Company is a subsidiary of Junhao Group. She is the president of Junhao Group. Surely, Miss Chen is her subordinate.
“Hello, Miss Chen.” Xia Ning smiles to greet Miss Chen. Then, she turns to Yi Yunrui, “Darling, do you know each other?”
Yi Yunrui puts on a seeming smile, “We met just now. Miss Chen is a talent scout.”
Xia Ning understands immediately when she hears the words Talent Scout. She can’t help laughing.
Yi Yunrui is such a handsome man. It is totally reasonable for him to attract the attention of talent scouts.
“Excuse me, may I ask …” Miss Chen turns to Xia Ning and says in a confused voice.
“My name is Xia Ning. Miss Chen, nice to meet you!” Xia Ning holds out her hand.
Xia Ning… That is a familiar name…
Suddenly, Miss Chen’s eyes brighten. She stands up at once and bows at Xia Ning, “President! President, sorry. I didn’t know that he was your husband… I am really sorry!”
Xia Ning is the new CEO of Junhao Group, the boss of Diwang Group, the real boss!
About this President Xia, she has heard a lot of legendary rumors. Many of them mentioned her husband. It is said that her husband seldom showed up, but he was a very powerful man. As they said, he is a superior leader in the army department!
God. She meets these two great people here while she foolishly invited the husband of President Xia to be a star…
“It is fine. Miss Chen, you don’t need to apologize.” Many people in the restaurant turn to look at them. Xia Ning lifts her hand at Miss Chen, “Miss Chen, take a seat. People are curious.”
“Oh. Yes! Sorry.” Miss Chen sits down. She lifts to glance at Xia Ning. The president looks far different from that in her imagination. How can she be such a young woman? She is also very easygoing…
Xia Ning smiles, “Don’t be so nervous. They all call me Ning. You don’t need to call me president. It sounds distant.”
Miss Chen feels surprised. Other people feel greatly flattered to be called president or leader to show their superiority in identity. However, this big boss doesn’t like that… Ah. As the saying goes, the real hero doesn’t show off.
After talking with Xia Ning for a little while, Miss Chen says excuse and leaves very soon, as if she is escaping from something.
Yi Yunrui sits quietly there. He never moves his eyes from his wife. When his wife talks to him from time to time, he gently smiles and nods to respond.
“Darling, am I scary?” Xia Ning turns to Yi Yunrui and asks in a miserable voice.
“You are not scary.” Yi Yunrui rubs his wife’s nose with his finger, “Your identity is.”
Xia Ning blinks her eyes. Seemingly, Yi Yunrui is telling the truth.
Tang Qieying turns off the TV. She glances at the man who is sitting right beside her. All these years, when he is with her, she always turns to be obedient.
He has watched the whole press conference, but he doesn’t say a word. Tang Qieying feels nervous in her heart.
“Are you angry?”
The man lifts his eyebrows. He is over fifty, but he still has a handsome face. He softens his face, “Why should I be angry?”
“Well. It happened and I admitted it. Will you feel humiliated for your identity to sit with me like this?” Even before that event, she felt inferior to him. Now, everything is revealed. She looks careless, but she feels very guilty secretly.
The man stares at Tang Qieying. After quite a while, he reaches to hold her hand tightly, “All these years, you were wronged.”
Tang Qieying feels warm. She slightly trembles her lips, “No. I don’t feel wronged.” It is true. She doesn’t feel wronged. Because he is always by her side.
“Why didn’t you tell me the truth at that time? In your opinion, was I unable to shield you from the storm?”
Tang Qieying shakes her head, “It is not true.”
What she was worried about was his career!
He doesn’t belong to her. Instead, he belongs to the nation and to the people.
“You silly girl.” They are old now, but he still likes to address her in this way, “Even if you don’t reply to me, I know what you are thinking about. I will find them out. It is time for them to pay back.”
Tang Qieying hears the word Pay Back. She lifts to look at him, “Don’t be impulsive. You are still young in your political career…”
“I am tired.” The man gives a sigh. He puts Tang Qieying’s hand on his chest, “It is time for me to enjoy family happiness. Honor and identity are only empty tittles. The thing I want most all my life is nothing about them.
All the time, he was the sky and everything to her. When he made plans for the nation, she would stand behind him. She was obsessed with everything about him. However, the enthusiastic age is past. They arrive at this age now. They should calm down their passionate hearts. Tang Qieying says, “It happened tens of years ago. It is over now. I don’t need any paying back. You don’t feel disgusted with me. That is the best I can ask for.”
“Ying, the most serious failure of my life is that I allowed the woman I loved to be wronged for tens of years! We have wasted too much time. I don’t want to lose you again.”
