Official from the Discipline Inspection Department?
Xia Ning feels nervous. She asks, “What happened?”
“Nothing serious. It is about Secretary Yi Yunyi. Miss Xia, will you be free at three in the afternoon tomorrow?”
Yi Yunyi? Her second elder brother-in-law?
Xia Ning feels worried, “Mr. Cheng, what on earth happened? Can you tell me?”
“Come to the municipal committee at three in the afternoon tomorrow and you will know. Miss Xia, I may hang up for now.”
The caller hangs up. Xia Ning dials Yi Yunyi’s number at once, but only to find that Yi Yunyi’s phone is off!
It is bad!
At the time, Xia Ning’s phone rings again. It is Gu Ruoruo. Xia Ning presses the answer button at once. She has not said anything while she hears Gu Ruoruo crying.
Xia Ning feels worried. She asks, “Ruoruo, does anything happen to my brother?”
“Sister Xia.” Gu Ruoruo says, “It is my fau
Xia Ning feels surprised to hear that. Did she mishear? Did Gu Luan really say so?To avoid drawing the whole World Era Weekly into it…If he is worried because Yi Yunyi is under investigation and tells Gu Ruoruo to temporarily stay away from Yi Yunyi, it is understandable. But he even spreads the requirement to Leng Weiwei. That is overreacting. What is he thinking about?“Ruoruo, no matter what he says, he is your brother. My brother’s case is not over yet. You have to keep patient. Other things can wait till the people from the discipline inspection department leave.”Gu Ruoruo nods. She suddenly remembers something. She asks, “Sister Xia, are you going for an inquiry at three this afternoon?”“Hum.” Xia Ning hesitates, “I am thinking about what I should say to bring some advantages to my brother…”At the time, Xia Ning’s phone rings. It is Su Shen. Instinctively, Xia Ning dr
The investigator looks at the invoice. The date on it is 13th of the month. She thinks for a while. Then, she dials a number and says, “Help me to check whether Qianfu Jewelry received a payment of amount four hundred thousand yuan in its account on 13th of the month.”Xia Ning feels a little nervous. She knew that they would check about it. But she still feels worried. After a few minutes, the woman’s phone rings. She takes up the phone and listens to it. Then, she hangs up. She turns to Xia Ning, “You had paid for it. Why did Qianfu Jewelry still take the payment of one hundred thousand yuan from Secretary Yi?”Xia Ning feels shocked to hear her words. Su Shen didn’t tell her that. However, the investigator is staring at her. If she shows any confusion, the investigator will find the problem!“Maybe…” Xia Ning hesitates for a while, “Maybe Qianfu Jewelry didn’t want Secretary Yi to know it, so they do
Gu Luan turns a little pale. Can Ning…really know it?He clenches his hands. He feels his heart painful as if it is being twisted. He does everything for her. He has been liking her for so many years. He also saw her suffer a lot during the years. He doesn’t believe that Yi Yunrui can ever protect her!Gu Luan grits his teeth. He says in a cold voice, “Mr. Su, we have an agreement between us. No matter what happens, I hope you may keep the secret between you and me.”“Don’t worry.” Su Shen fixes his hair, “This the bottom line. I know it. However, Director Gu, next time, please do things more carefully. Or, I am afraid that I can’t but choose to protect myself first.”Su Shen finishes his words and turns around to leave. Looking at the waves coming one by one to clap the bank, Gu Luan freezes his eyes, at the deep of which there is a flame of fire on.Su Shen signed the contract with him, but in the end,
Xia Ning slowly opens her eyes. She feels that her head is painful and she is dizzy, as if her body is going to break down. She slowly focuses her eyes and sees clearly what is in front of her. She strokes her head and looks around. It is a very tidy room with the fragrance of cologne. Based on the setting of the room, the owner of it must lead a fine life.Xia Ning widens her eyes!Wait. The fragrance of the cologne…smells exactly the same as that on Gu Luan!“You are awake?”She hears the familiar voice. Xia Ning feels surprised. She turns to look at the direction of the voice. Gu Luan sits there in casual clothes with a glass of amber drink. He quietly looks at her. But there is something else in the deep of his eyes. “Director Gu, why am I here?” She remembers that she lost consciousness after she left the coffee shop. Did Gu Luan save her?“You fainted in the
“Mommy…mommy…”A vague voice echoes in the air. Xia Ning lifts to look around. The grass looks like a green carpet. The wind is warm. It is sunny. Where is she?Xia Ning hears some people laughing. She turns to the direction and sees a family of three playing on the grass. The man is tall and strong. The woman is sweet, lying in her husband’s embrace, while the kid is active and lovely. The kid holds a bunch of flowers and runs around his parents, crying “Daddy” and “Mommy”.Xia Ning feels warm, admiring the happy family. The man seems to be aware that someone is looking at him. He lifts to look at Xia Ning. When Xia Ning sees his face, she is shocked blankly!It is Yi Yunrui!“Darling, what’s wrong?”The woman in his embrace gently asks. She follows Yi Yunrui’s eyes to look at Xia Ning. Xia Ning feels confused, wondering who the woman is.
Gu Luan feels surprised that An Zihao will say so to him. An Zihao slightly lifts his lips, “Mr. Gu, I know you have some connection with Jiang Yongran. I don’t care what you are doing. However, Xia Ning is chosen by President Zhou. President Zhou must have her reasons to do so. Mr. Gu, I hope you don’t interfere in this.”Undeniably, when Xia Ning showed up, An Zihao was suspicious of her. The suspicion has not disappeared till now. However, Xia Ning gives him the impression that she has her rules and principles. After investigating for some time, he vaguely finds that Zhou Mengyao is almost asking Xia Ning for a favor to become her assistant.He knows Zhou Mengyao very well. So, he chooses to believe Xia Ning. An Zihao ignores Gu Luan’s reaction. He turns to leave. This Mr. Gu surely knows that Xia Ning is married while he still tries to get her by force. An Zihao knows that he can’t make Gu Luan drop his idea wit
Xia Ning feels very surprised to hear Zhou Mengyao’s words. She wants to reply while Zhou Mengyao interrupts, “Don’t be surprised. I like you. You may stay here to recover. Leave other things to me to deal with.”Xia Ning feels sweet. She gives a sigh. Zhou Mengyao is so hospitable to her. She has been at her home. She should not refuse her.“Well. Then, thank you, Aunt Zhou.”It is in TC Group.“Take this file to Junhao Group and ask for President Zhou’s comments.” Su Shen passes a file to his secretary. He takes up the coffee for a sip. He feels a little annoyed. It is obvious that TC Group can take the deal by itself. But Yi Yunrui told him to cooperate with Junhao Group. Now, he will make less profit and have to work for Zhou Mengyao’s favor. It is annoying!What is more, it is a long-term deal. It is impossible for him to get clearly away from Junhao Group within a year or a half. Su Sh
Xia Ning hears Zhou Mengyao mention Gu Luan. She feels her heart tightened. What happened some days ago pops up in her brain. Xia Ning grits her teeth. She takes up the warm milk from the servant for a mouthful and says, “I have to tell Rui about that.”Zhou Mengyao lifts her eyebrows, admiring Xia Ning’s reaction in her heart. When something like that happens, most women will choose to hide it or cover it up with whatever they can. But Xia Ning reacts to it directly. The event can’t be hidden. If she doesn’t take any initiative reactions, when Yi Yunrui finds it out, she will be put in a passive position. “What about Gu Luan? How do you like to deal with him? Ning, you may tell me your decision. I will help you to totally get rid of him.”Xia Ning darkens her eyes. Gu Luan has a powerful background. Anything done to him will bring great influence. Now, Yi Yunrui hasn’t finished dealing with his case. It is unsuitab
