Gu Ruoruo hasn’t finished her words when a woman walks in slowly. She slightly lifts her lips and puts on a victory smile.
“Xia Ning, it is really a turn of luck. Now, we meet again.”
Looking at the woman, Xia Ning darkens her face, “Ruoruo, you may go out for now.”
Gu Ruoruo senses the tension between Xia Ning and the woman. She is confused, “Sister Xia, I may go to make the coffee…”
“No need. You may leave now.”
“Oh.” Gu Ruoruo responds and turns to leave.
It seems that the woman comes with some purpose. Will they quarrel inside?
The door is closed. Yin Jingyao curls her lips and smile. She walks straightly to Xia Ning and sits in front of her, “We are old acquaintances. Don’t you welcome me?”
Welcome? Xia Ning mildly blinks her eyes, “You come back so soon.”
Yin Jingyao said in the message that she was leaving in the afternoon. It is only a few hours later and she
Yin Jingyao has not responded, while Gu Ruoruo can’t wait to ask, “Brother Luan, can I go with you?”Gu Luan is shocked by Gu Ruoruo’s eagerness. He nods, “Yes. But you have to behave well.”“Don’t worry. I will. I will just sit to eat quietly.” Gu Ruoruo says in a great expectation. “Miss Yin, would you…do me the favor?” Gu Luan repeats his invitation.Yin Jingyao glances at Xia Ning, “I was a friend of Commander Yi in the army. I am actually planning to meet my old friends now that I come back. Since Director Gu invites me, I am glad to go with you.”“Good. Thank you.” Saying this, Gu Luan turns to Xia Ning, “Ning, are you going downstairs to ask Commander Yi, or are you going to call him about this?”Yi Yunrui doesn’t like to attend social activities. Xia Ning thinks for a while, “You may go first. I will go there with Rui later.”“Hum.” Gu Luan asks Yin Jingyao, “Miss Yin, do you drive yo
Seeing the beauty of a combination of Chinese and Western styles, in an instant, Xia Ning understands what is called “brightening the house by one’s presence”.Because of her, the whole room becomes shining, as if it is infused with the energy of life.Gu Luan gives the woman a hug and makes an introduction, “Pingping, let me introduce to you. This is Yin Jingyao, a daughter of Mayor Yin of B City. This is my sister. This is Commander Yi from C Military Region and this is his wife, Xia Ning. Everybody, this is my old friend for years, the owner of Yijunxuan, Zhou Wenping, a real beauty.”“Ah. Director Gu, what are you saying? I can’t be called a real beauty. Look, which one sitting here is not a real beauty? Are you making fun of me?”“Who dare make fun of you?” Gu Luan laughs, “Look, you have a houseful of guests on the first day of opening. Your restaurant can definitely become the representative of catering in C City in the futu
Yin Jingyao glances at the dishes which she has hardly tasted. Xia Ning’s full bowl seems harsh to her. Yin Jingyao puts down the chopsticks and said, “Miss Zhou, do you want to hear my honest comments?”What Yin Jingyao is implying is obvious. Gu Luan slightly freezes his smile.Zhou Wenping mildly smiles, “Hum. Miss Yin, please tell me frankly.”“The style of dishes is too common. The color is good, but they taste too bland. They are too sweet. It is lack of oil and heat of the pot. In my opinion, they are of the score sixty out of a hundred.”Sixty is a barely pass score. No doubt that Yin Jingyao has added some score of “friendship” in this sixty. Everyone can understand that Yin Jingyao is extremely unsatisfied with these dishes.“Sixty? Seriously?” Not waiting for Zhou Wenping to respond, Gu Ruoruo can’t help shouting, “Though they are not spicy, they are very delicious! In my opinion, they can have
Gu Luan freezes his eyes. Seemingly, Miss Yin is flying into a rage directly in his car.What he means is clear. It is possible if she wants to work permanently. However, Miss Yin is lost in jealousy and can understand nothing else.“Miss Yin, it is the first day for me to meet you. How can I know who is more capable between you and Xia Ning? If I did anything improperly, you may tell me frankly. I will pay attention to that. But we are not going to get someone else involved.”Yin Jingyao feels a great of anger. She would have given Gu Luan the real scolding if it had happened two years ago. However, she has lost her title and she doesn’t have the standing. She has to restrain herself no matter how angry she is.“Sorry, I was rude.”Gu Luan lifts his eyebrows, surprised to hear Miss Yin apologizing.The car stops in front of the gate of an international hotel. Gu Luan takes out his phone and dials a number
Xia Ning is moved. But she says, “Are you saying that I am mean?”Yi Yunrui is stunned, “No, I am not…”“Yes. That’s what you mean.” Xia Ning curls her lips. She snorts and turns around.Yi Yunrui is anxious, “Sweetheart, I didn’t mean that. Sweetheart, don’t be angry.”Xia Ning smiles secretly, but she still says in an angry voice, “Who says that I am angry? I am not. The dishes are quite delicious today. Miss Zhou prepared them deliberately for you! Ha, it seems that Commander Yi is popular with thousands of girls and young women!”Yi Yunrui feels his brain is in a mess. He fails to explain in this way and in another way. For an instant, he doesn’t know what he can say. He holds Xia Ning tightly, “Sweetheart, don’t do this. I…Sorry. I will never teach anyone else again. Sweetheart, don’t be angry.”Xia Ning gives some small coughs and restrains herself from laughing, “I said I am not angry. I just feel t
Gu Luan slightly blinks his eyes. He is surprised to find the elder Miss Yin lose her temper!Isn’t this woman always proud of being self-control? At the moment, why does she lose control of herself in the telephone conversation with him?It seems that the photos really hit the weak point of Miss Yin.“Oh? I never underestimate people, especially women.” Gu Luan says slowly, “President Yin, please don’t be angry. I am just curious why President Yin believes the photos are sent by me?”Yin Jingsi slightly pauses, “Didn’t you send the photos?”Gu Luan smiles, “To be honest, in the news circle, there is much hearsay, but why does President Yin think I will threaten you?”“You also know what happened in the other night. And Xia Ning is working for you.”“President Yin, that is considered to be the employee’s privacy. Without permission, I will not interfere. In addition, I am in this circle. I pay
Yi Yunrui slightly lifts his thin lips. It seems that Mayor Yin doesn’t know Yin Jing’s coming back until now.“Your first daughter Yin Jingsi asked my wife for Yin Jingyao’s coming back. Since my wife required that, I agreed.”Yi Yunrui’s words sound normal and simple, but Mayor Yin sweats when he hears them!Since Yin Jingsi asked for that, it means the two sisters…Mayor Yin takes a cold breath, “Commander, my two daughters are still young and don’t know how to get well along with people. If they have done anything wrong, would you please tell me? I will surely give you a satisfactory answer.”Yi Yunrui blinks his eyes, “Is Mayor Yin worried?”“Commander, I know you don’t like beating around the bush. To be honest, I just learned yesterday that Jingyao came back to China. It is my fault. I am too busy to care about them. However, Commander, if something happened, please make sure to tell me. Will you?”
Xia Ning is silent. Gu Luan takes the coffee for a sip, “If you tell Commander Yi, please let me know. If there is anything I can do, I will cooperate with you.”Xia Ning mildly smiles, “Thank you.”Gu Luan wants to continue, but he suddenly stops!Xia Ning finds Gu Luan freeze. She is confused. She follows the direction of Gu Luan and she is shocked blankly!When does Yi Yunrui stand behind her?“Rui…!” Xia Ning panics. She stands up.Why does he come here?“You two are having a good time.” Yi Yunrui stares at Xia Ning. His face looks cold.“Rui, I have something to talk with Director Gu. So…”“Why don’t you say frankly?” Yi Yunrui interrupts in a cold voice.“I…I…Sorry.” Xia Ning doesn’t know what else she can say.She looks at Yi Yunrui and knows that he must have some misunderstandings. Xia Ning feels his eyes burning her as
