Chapter 148 To Get Involved
Beyond Xia Ning’s expectation, the exclusive interview goes on very smoothly.
During the one hour of the interview , from the beginning to the end, Yin Jingsi keeps smiling and patiently answers Xia Ning’s questions. It goes on so smoothly that Xia Ning is surprised.
She wonders whether Yin Jingsi wants to make friends with her instead of being enemies.
Or, does she take this method of “making concessions to gain advantages” because of Ou Yixuan?
No matter what, after she finishes the interview, Xia Ning will go back to C City tomorrow. And she won’t care about the couple of Yin Jingsi and Ou Yixuan any longer.
The exclusive interview is done. Both of them give a sigh of relief. Xia Ning and Yin Jingsi shake hands and talk politely for a while. Xia Ning asks Yin Jingsi’s to comment on the exclusive interview and then she collects her things and goes back to Yi Villa.
Xia Ning and her group leave. The door of the office is closed. Yin Jingsi ‘s smile disappears and her eyes look evil.
That young girl is called Gu Ruoruo.
Gu Ruoruo. The surname is Gu…Does she have any relation with Director Gu of the World Era Weekly?
It seems that the young girl likes her very much. And she is the a.s.sistant of Xia Ning…
Ah, that will be interesting.
“Liqing, please organize the information of the interview. We are going on the flight at ten tomorrow morning. You may have a rest tonight.” Xia Ning pa.s.ses the file to Wan Liqing and feels relaxed as if the stone on her heart finally goes back to the ground,
“OK.” Wan Liqing responds and takes the file to leave.
“Sister Xia, do you have anything for me to do?” Gu Ruoruo widens her eyes and asks.
Xia Ning thinks for a while, saying: “You have just entered the company. You may get familiar with the company’s regulations first. You don’t need to worry about having nothing to do. After we go back to C City, you will have to start your work. Don’t complain of being bullied by me at that time.”
“Sister Xia is such a nice person. How can you bully me? I may go back to read the material now.”
“Wait.” Xia Ning stops Gu Ruoruo who is leaving. Xia Ning walks to her and asks mysteriously, “We are going back to C City. Aren’t you going to hang out with your uncle?”
Gu Ruoruo blushes: “Sister Xia is bad!” She hurriedly runs away.
That uncle…to be honest, is quite handsome and mature. She likes him.
She doesn’t know why. Every time when she sees that uncle, her heart beats rapidly and her face gets very red…She feels shy!
After supper, Xia Ning thinks that Yi Yunyi may ask Gu Ruoruo to go out with him. But the Secretary is too busy. He puts down his bowl and leaves. Then, Xia Ning notices that Gu Ruoruo looks a little disappointed.
They are going back to C City tomorrow. One of them is in the east while the other is in the west. It will be a little troublesome.
“Ning.” When they are eating fruit, Zheng Yao asks meaningfully, “Are you and Rui going to stay at C City permanently?”
As a matter of fact, Xia Ning understands what her mother-in-law means. Which parents don’t want to keep their children around?
If not because of the history with Mei Ruo, Yi Yunrui hadn’t needed to move to C City to get away from her.
But if Yi Yunrui didn’t go to C City, would she meet him?
It is already ten in the evening. Xia Ning is going to bed. At the time, her phone rings.
It is Yin Jingsi.
It is past ten in the evening. Why is Yin Jingsi calling her?
“Xia Ning, is it convenient for you to come out now?”
Xia Ning hesitates: “What is it about?”
“It is about today’s exclusive interview. I think we need to make some revisions in some places. And I want to talk with you.”
Xia Ning thinks for a while, saying: “Then, I will go with my a.s.sistant.”
“No. I want to talk with you in private.”
Xia Ning’s heart tightens. She is alert. “What does Miss Yin want to talk with me? Can we talk on the phone?”
“Xia Ning, do you have to be so alert? You are in Yi Villa now. Once you go out, everyone knows that you are coming to me. If anything happens to you, the Yi Family won’t let me get away with it. You may just come out at ease. If I were not going to have a business trip tomorrow, I would not ask you to come out now. I am waiting for you in the VIP Room of the TOP Bar over the street. Come here soon.”
Yin Jingsi finishes her words and hangs up before Xia Ning responds.
Xia Ning is nervous. What Yin Jingsi said is right. If anything happens to her, Yi Yunrui will do something. But it is so late, and they will meet in a bar. She is still worried about that.
To go or not?
If it is about personal issues, she can choose not to go. However, if it is about the exclusive interview, she has to go.”
It seems that Yin Jingsi has thought about the “have to go” reason for her.
“No matter where you are going, bring the phone with you.”
Yi Yunrui’s words pop up in her brain. Xia Ning curls her lips. She changes her clothes and goes out with the phone.
“Sister Xia, where are you going?”
When Xia Ning goes downstairs, she meets Gu Ruoruo. Xia Ning smiles: “My old friend in the B City asked me to go out.”
Gu Ruoruo blinks her eyes: “Sister Xia goes out for fun. I am bored.”
Xia Ning is a little helpless. It is natural for active girls like Gu Ruoruo to feel bored. Honestly, if Yin Jingsi didn’t say that she couldn’t bring other people with her, she will take Gu Ruoruo and Wan Liqing to go there together.
“I will come back soon. It is already past ten. You may go to sleep early.” Saying this, Xia Ning goes towards the door.
When the door is closed, Zheng Yao comes out in pajama. She asks Gu Ruoruo: “Who went out?”
“Aunt Zheng, Sister Xia has just gone out.”
Zheng Yao frowns: “What did she go out for so late?”
TOP Bar is not far away from Yi Villa. Xia Ning finds Yin Jingsi in the VIP Room very soon.
The bar is not big but with exquisite decoration. Yin Jingsi is alone in the VIP Room. Xia Ning is very surprised to see that.
“They are having fun in another room. This VIP Room is only for me. Once there is anything urgent about work, I will come here to handle it. Have a seat, please.” Yin Jingsi points at the seat by her.
Xia Ning sits down. She looks at Yin Jingsi. Yin Jingsi is dressed differently. She wears professional clothes in the day time, while now, she wears a s.e.xy tight off-shoulder dress. The makeup on her face is bold. With a good-looking body shape, she dresses up in this way, which may make the men who see her excited.
“Where is your husband?” Xia Ning asks.
Yin Jingsi lifts her eyebrows: “He is greeting someone else. I am waiting for him here.”
Saying this, Yin Jingsi puts out the cigarette in her hand, saying: “Do you want to drink anything?”
Xia Ning shakes her head: “A cup of water will be OK.”
At the time, the waiter comes in. Yin Jingsi orders a cup of c.o.c.ktail and asks the waiter to bring a cup of water.
Soon, the waiter puts down the c.o.c.ktail and water and walks out. The door is closed.
Yin Jingsi takes a sip of the c.o.c.ktail. She doesn’t speak for quite a while.
“Miss Yin, didn’t you say that there are some problems about the exclusive interview?”
“I meant that I have something to talk with you.”
Xia Ning drink some water, saying: “Miss Yin, I hope you understand. I have nothing to do with Ou Yixuan now. If it is about the relation between him and me, I may leave now.”
“Yes.” Yin Jingsi lights another cigarette and smokes: “Ou Yixuan told me some days ago that he would be kind to me from then on. And he behaved really well recently. If he can go on like this, I have the faith that we can lead a happy life ever after.”
“Surely you can. Miss Yin, don’t worry.”
Yin Jingsi’s eyes flash. She takes another sip of the c.o.c.ktail: “He is my husband. I surely believe him. I, Yin Jingsi, only admit him as my husband…”
At the time, Yin Jingsi’s phone rings and interrupts her speech.
“Sorry, I have to answer the phone.” Saying this, Yin Jingsi presses the answer b.u.t.ton, “h.e.l.lo, this is Yin Jingsi speaking.”
Yin Jingsi talks for a while and glances at Xia Ning. She covers the handset: “Excuse me, I have some emergency. Please wait for several minutes. I will come back soon.”
Saying this, Yin Jingsi walks out.
Xia Ning is left alone in the VIP Room.
The light in the room is a little dark. Xia Ning is a little nervous. Unconsciously, she takes out her phone and holds it in her hand.
Usually at this time, Yi Yunrui will call her. Why hasn’t he called today?
It is 11:00 o’clock as shown on the screen of the phone. Xia Ning waits for a while and Yin Jingsi doesn’t come back. She is considering leaving.
Anyway, they have finished the discussion about work. The personal issue can be talked about on the phone.
Thinking of this, Xia Ning decides to leave for now.
Xia Ning is just going to leave when there are forceful slaps at the door and a man’s rude voice is heard: “Yin Jingsi, open the door!”
Xia Ning is shocked. It is not a kind comer outside.
She has made no reactions when the door is open by force and several felonious men break in.
The men glance around the room and stares at Xia Ning. One who seems to be the leader asks in a loud voice: “Where is Yin Jingsi? Where is the b.i.t.c.h?”
Xia Ning feels nervous, realizing these men are looking for Yin Jingsi for some troubles.
“Hey, I am asking you. Tell me. Now.” The man rudely shouts.
Xia Ning shakes her head: “I don’t know. She has just gone out for some emergency.”
“Gone out?” The man is confused. Then, his eyes flash evilly. He winks at the other men, “Take the girl.”
Xia Ning is shocked to see the men coming to her: “What do you want to do?” Saying this, she reaches for her bag.
“Stop!” The man shouts, “Where do you put your hand? If you take one more move, don’t complain about my being rude to you!”
Xia Ning pauses. There are five or six men here. She has got five bullets in her ring gun. If she makes no missing, basically, she can get rid of all the men with it.
“What do you want to do?” With the weapon, Xia Ning gets less nervous.
“Nothing. We just want you to cooperate with us. If you behave well, we won’t do anything to you.” Saying this, the man winks at another man, “Call the b.i.t.c.h Yin Jingsi. Tell her that we have got the girl in the VIP Room. Tell her to come here for the girl.”
