Chapter 257 Her Backup
At the moment, Yi Yunrui feels chill at the bottom of his heart.
What his wife says makes him feel very anxious.
Bother…not to worry about…real business…not the real business! His wife is talking politely to him!
He thinks that he and she are very intimate. However, Ning’s speaking tone sounds as if she treats him as a good friend instead of her husband!
The meaning of her words shows clearly that she is avoiding him. She is openly and secretly resisting him!
Why does she change to be so?
Yi Yunrui is stunned for quite a while before he can collect himself. He lifts Xia Ning’s thin chin with his long fingers and says word by word, “Ning, I am your husband. In my heart. You are unique to me. To love you and to protect you is a natural thing to me. How can you consider it not the real business? In my opinion, no matter how old you are, you are the woman I can’t put down! Ning, what happened?”
The speech goes word by word, as if they are being imprinted into her soul. Xia Ning feels her heart melted. Her beautify eyes blur with tears because of being moved. Unconsciously, she holds out her hands and wants to embrace the man she loves.
However.
At the moment she holds out her hand, Xia Ning feels her heart turned tightened. Instead, she turns around and stands up. She can’t help speaking out, “I think I am too useless. I want to be independent. At least, I want to be able to look after myself. I don’t want to be misunderstood by other people so easily!”
Hearing this, Yi Yunrui is shocked. He at once remembers what his mother said today. That surely has irritated his wife!
Being reminded of that, Yi Yunrui stands up at once to turn her around and holds her into his embrace, “That is silly. I won’t let that happen again. I have talked with my mother. My mother is frank. She has known the truth about the event. She won’t say anything again. It is my fault. You are wronged because of me…”
“Rui.” The more considerate he is, Xia Ning tends to resist more seriously. She pushes him away, “I didn’t mean that! You don’t need to apologize!”
Yi Yunrui is suddenly pushed away by Xia Ning. He looks at her unbelievably. As if things in his heart are drawn away, he feels his heart empty!
“Ning…? What’s wrong?”
Xia Ning feels her heart stuck. She closes her mouth and feels her brain in a mess. She sticks her fingers into her hairs and scratches there forcefully, “Rui, give me some time. Leave me in quietness for a moment. OK? I feel my head aching…”
Yi Yunrui feels panic. He becomes more nervous. His wife asks him to go out. He is put into a dilemma. Ning has never behaved like this. He realizes clearly that she feels confused in her heart at the moment. Her head is aching, while his heart is painful!
It is understandable…
Too many things happened recently. They press on Ning’s heart all of a sudden. Maybe she needs some time to slow down.
“OK. I may go out.” Yi Yunrui says in a deep voice, “I am right outside. Ning, don’t think too much. We are husband and wife. We will bear everything together. OK?”
Xia Ning thinks for a while. She nods, “Don’t worry. I am fine.”
What she needs is to stay alone. She doesn’t want to bring difficulties to him!
Yi Yunrui turns around to walk. He is leaving the room. He remembers something and turns his head, “I almost finished sending out the invitations today, for all guests from my side and your side. There are still more than ten days to go before our wedding banquet. Ning, be happy.”
Xia Ning’s heart jumps, “Hum. I see.”
Yi Yunrui walks out of the room and gently closes the door. Xia Ning gives a long sigh of relief.
She doesn’t realize what happiness she is surrounded by?
She has such a kind husband, while she is still not satisfied. She is still unhappy.
Yi Yunrui said that her mother-in-law had known the truth of the event and would not blame her again, but some of the words her mother-in-law said deeply irritated her.
“Don’t be irrationally reckless because of Rui’s being partial to you! If I, Zheng Yao, disagree, you have to leave!”
Leave…Did Zheng Yao mean that she had to divorce Yi Yunrui?
Xia Ning knows that there are many women around Yi Yunrui.
If she leaves, she believes that Zheng Yao will find another woman for Yi Yunrui very soon.
As if her heart is pressed by something heavy, Xia Ning takes a deep breath.
To be honest, if Zheng Yao really wants to take action, what do Xia Ning has to fight against her?
Can she take Yi Yunrui’s love as her backup?
Yes. She can do so, but she doesn’t want to cause the storm.
Yi Yunrui is an army man. He pays the greatest attention to the nation and his family. How can she put him into difficulty?
She knows that she is alone and has little power. As to what Zheng Yao did, for the sake of Yi Yunrui’s benefit, she cannot but bear that all!
However, she feels her heart stuck. She is displeased.
She finds that she herself becomes an object of dilemma, wandering between willingness and unwillingness.
If…
If Zheng Yao forces Yi Yunrui to divorce her, what will Yi Yunrui do?
She knows that Yi Yunrui won’t divorce her.
But she will feel too much pressure on her heart. She may be willing to divorce.
No. She has to find the capital for fighting. She has to make herself confident with power!
Suddenly, some words Gu Luan said pop up in her brain: my position will be taken over by someone sooner or later.
Her career!
Even if she loses everything in the future, she will have her career to be her backup…
Thinking of this, Xia Ning takes out her phone and dials Gu Luan’s number.
It gets through very soon. Gu Luan sounds a little surprised, “Ning, what makes you call me at his time? Did you have a quarrel with Commander Yi?” He teases.
Gu Luan is just joking. But unexpectedly, he tells the truth.
Xia Ning feels her heart tightened. She reluctantly smiles, “Director Gu, didn’t you say that there would be a selection of excellent employees in April? I have made my decision. I am willing to take the challenge.”
Not expecting that Xia Ning will mention this issue, Gu Luan pauses, “Why do you make the decision suddenly? There won’t be any problems for you to be a candidate. Once I hand in the list, you have to get mentally prepared to contribute yourself to World Era Weekly. At that time, you won’t have so much time for the romance with Commander Yi. Are you OK with that?”
Xia Ning mildly smiles, “We have to walk upwards. I will take care of my personal issues. I hope Director Gu can give me the chance.”
Gu Luan hesitates at the other end of the phone for quite a while. In the end, he responds in a deep voice, “OK. I see.”
Xia Ning hangs up the phone and feels her heart even heavier. Anyway, it feels better than before. She feels dizzy and wants to go to sleep.
At the time, there is a knock at the door. Yi Yunrui’s voice is heard from outside, “Ning, please open the door. I have some important things to discuss with you.”
