Xia Ning feels embarrassed. Zhang Hai who stands beside her says, “Aunt, Mrs. Yi is just back from the hospital. She doesn’t feel well and needs to rest in quietness.”
“Oh?” Zheng Yao questioned, lifting her eyebrows. She turns to Zhang Hai, “Who are you? Are you supposed to speak anything here?”
Zhang Hai feels stuck. He knows that the mother of Commander Yi is not an easy-going person. Now, he realizes that she is much more difficult than being not easy-going.
“Sorry. I shouldn’t have spoken.” Zhang Hai responds. He puts the luggage on the ground and takes a step backwards to stand straight there.
Zheng Yao frowns. She asks in displeasure, “Boy, what do you mean by standing here? You are afraid that I may swallow your Mrs. Yi? Go out!”
Zhang Hai turns to Xia Ning, asking for her opinion through his eyes.
Xia Ning nods, motioning him to leave.
Zhang Hai hesitates for a while. It is imaginab
Zheng Yao is in a rage. However, she doesn’t notice that Mei Ruo is evilly smiling beside.“Aunt Zheng, don’t be angry. Ah. How could Xia Ning do that? How could she ignore her mother-in-law in front of other people? It is humiliating if it is known by others!”Mei Ruo’s inciting makes Zheng Yao angrier that she has the desire to punish Xia Ning at once. She grits her teeth and says scathingly, “No way. Anyway, I have to get rid of this woman. After Rui comes back, I will tell him to choose either his mother or his wife!”Mei Ruo realizes that she has got what she wants. She feels glad. However, she doesn’t stop patting Zheng Yao’s back and saying fawning words to comfort her.But she also feels a little worried in her heart.Her brother takes actions. But she is not sure what he is going to do. If it goes serious and enrages Yi Yunrui, that will be disastrous. In the coffee shop, Xia Ning orders a cup of
When Du Bei wakes up, what she sees first are the six strong men around her. She screws her eyes, feeling very dizzy, “What’s up?”Wait, it is not Xiao’s club. It looks like…in the wild!Yes. There are bushes around, with no other people. It is frighteningly desolate!In an instant, Du Bei is drawn back to consciousness completely. She looks alertly at the six men, “Who are you? What do you want to do? Do you know who I am? If anything happens to me, none of you can survive!”The six men exchange a look and smile filthily.“Miss Du, you are the very person we are looking for.”One of the men says. When he pronounces the words Miss Du, the name seems to be with some other meanings.Du Bei feels her heart sink. Shit, they really come for her!Du Bei She has got along with a lot of men. Seeing their expressions, how can she not understand what these men want to do?It is
Hearing the happy sound, Xia Ning, Zheng Yao and Mei Ruo all lift to look at the source of it. Xia Ning’s eyes brighten. It is Li Baoer!She feels very surprised, wondering why does Li Baoer show up here. She should be in her office now. Li Baoer runs to them. She slightly bends down to gasp, “Ah, Ning, it is a real coincidence. You come to have a barbecue, too?”Xia Ning blinks her eyes and nods, “Hum. Why are you here?”“I am on holiday today!” Li Baoer notices the surprise on Xia Ning’s face. She winks at her, “Director Xia, you really have a poor memory. Didn’t you approve my leave few days ago? Don’t worry. I have got my work arranged. It won’t have any problems! Take it easy.”Xia Ning glimpses Li Baoer’s expression and she comes to understand. Li Baoer belongs to her department and she is the one in charge of approving the leave. Actually, Li Baoer didn’t request for any leave. Today, she shows up here at this
How can Xia Ning not notice Zhengyao’s look and her mind? Misunderstanding already happened. No matter how she explains, Zheng Yao simply will not believe her. Besides, Zhang Hai and Li Baoer were worried about her. Zhang Hai took the risk of being transferred away, while Li Baoer spent several hours coming here directly for her.Having such nice friends, how can she not feel moved!Well. Let it be. She called for help. So what?Zheng Yao doesn’t like her. She may continue to dislike her. Anyway, Xia Ning has never expected that Zheng Yao to like her.However, she knows that Zheng Yao feels beaten this time and will definitely try harder to win back next time. Xia Ning has to get prepared for it. At the time, Xing has got the chicken wings done. He brings ten of them, “Mrs. Yi and Mrs. Dai, these three are spicy, these three are salty and these four are sweet. Yu may have a taste first. We are still making more.”
There is another piece of news saying that a weekly published a false report and will stop its business for internal rectification!Xia Ning reads it carefully. The news mentions that a reporter of the weekly accepted a bribe from Du Bei and made up the false report. He violated the professional morality and was sent to the police office.The mentioned weekly…is the one which put the photos of Xia Ning and Su Shen on the headline!God. The whole weekly is out of business. Lei Buyang is really powerful.Xia Ning takes out her phone and dials Lei Buyang’s number, “Buyang, I have read the news. Thank you.”“Oh. You don’t need to be so polite. You know the relation between us.” Lei Buyang smiles naughtily at the other end.Xia Ning twitches her lips, “If President Lei doesn’t mind, you and I will always be good friends. Buyang, actually, I want to verify one issue with you. The weekly is told to stop its busin
Hearing Xia Ning’s words, Zhou Mengyao is glad, “I am an old woman. I am glad that you don’t call me Granny Zhou. You want to call me Sister Mengyao! Anyway, it is up to you. You may call me whatever you like.”Granny Zhou is surely not a suitable address. Xia Ning thinks for a while and says, “I decide to call you Sister Mengyao!”Zhou Mengyao is too beautiful to be addressed as she should be. It seems that any addressing is inappropriate…“OK, as long as you like it.” Zhou Mengyao closes the door and presses the accelerator. The car goes away at a high speed.It is a Ferrari sporty car. Zhou Mengyao drives very well. Among the cars on the crowded road, the red Ferrari car is just like a bunch of fire flame. It rushes across, followed by a lot of cheers.The car goes and turns and arrives at a little lane. Xia Ning feels very surprised. Don’t they come to drink coffee? Where is the coffee shop?And where
Zhou Mengyao tells the history of Yi Xian and her in a casual voice. She even wears a mild smile. However, Xia Ning understands that the truth can’t be so simple. “I come back to the country this time mainly to meet my old friends. I heard Yi Xian mention you. So, I am very interested in you. It was a coincidence that you were also in the hospital last time. Therefore, I went to see you.”Xia Ning feels a little shy, “I am very lazy and unambitious. I seldom impress other people. I feel really shy about it.”Zhou Mengyao puts down the coffee. She feels confused, “Why do you describe yourself in this way? Yi Xian gave you a lot of compliments. He said that you were a very nice daughter-in-law.”Xia Ning feels surprised, “Seriously?”“You silly girl.” Zhou Mengyao pats on her hand, “I know you have some conflicts with your mother-in-law, Zheng Yao. However, don’t depreciate yourself. All the men of the Yi family are awe
Xia Ning finds that it becomes silent on her mother-in-law’s side. She feels confused, “Mom, what happens?”“I will talk to you later!” Then, Zheng Yao hangs up.She stares at the series of numbers on the screen of the phone. Her heart beats rapidly.That woman…comes back!Her hands tremble. Zheng Yao closes her eyes and takes a deep breath. She presses the answer button, “Sister Mengyao, how are you?”The person at the other end of the phone is Zhou Mengyao.She left tens of years ago. It was said that she led a very happy life abroad. Now, she suddenly comes back…All her life, Zheng Yao scruples to face this woman most. She knows what Zhou Mengyao means to Yi Xian. At that time, if Zhou Mengyao hadn’t taken the initiative to give up, Zheng Yao might not have become the hostess of the Yi Family.“Yao, it has been tens of years. You still remember your school friend
