Chapter 325 The Person to Be Interviewed
“Give me all the money on you!” The woman opens her hand and stretches it directly to the thief.
Both Xia Ning and the thief feel shocked.
For an instant, Xia Ning can’t tell who is the real thief.
The woman finds the thief stunned. She slaps him again, “I say, give all your money to me!”
The thief honestly takes out all the money on him and gives it to the woman.
The woman counts the money, while the thief still doesn’t dare to leave. Xia Ning twitches her eyebrows, wondering whether she is in a trap set in advance.
Can this be a trick played by some professional swindlers?
Thinking about this, Xia Ning puts her phone aside and gets ready to leave.
“You have little money!” The woman puts the money aside. She pats on the thief’s back, “Get out. The further, the better. Never let me see you again.”
The thief didn’t believe that the woman would let him go so easily. He feels shocked for a while and runs away fast.
There is something on the back of the thief. Xia Ning sees it clearly.
Wait. Did the woman tell the thief to call their helpers?
Isn’t it just a phone? Is it necessary for them to do so?
s.h.i.+t. She has to go away from here as soon as possible.
Xia Ning turns to leave.
“Girl, wait a minute!”
The woman calls. Xia Ning hesitates. She wants to run away. However, she remembers the woman’s violent tendency and decides that she may wait for a while.
Xia Ning consciously touches the ring and the bracelet in her hand.
These are weapons from Yi Yunrui for her to protect herself. They all have anesthetic inside, which can make a person fainted within three seconds.
The woman walks to Xia Ning. She takes out the money which she robbed from the thief. She counts it and says, “It is five hundred yuan. We may divide it half and half. We will have two hundred and fifty yuan for each.”
The woman finishes her words and pa.s.ses two hundred and fifty yuan to Xia Ning.
Xia Ning feels shocked in embarra.s.sment. She will feel herself a fool if she takes the money.
“Well…I have got my phone back. I don’t need the money. Thank you.” Xia Ning forces a smile on her face. She says while taking a step backwards.
“What are you afraid of? Take it!” The woman holds out her hand to draw Xia Ning. She drops the money on Xia Ning’s hand without further explanation, “It is quite much, enough for you to eat and drink for a whole day in Niujie Street.”
Xia Ning takes the money in her hand. She hesitates whether she should take it or not. She looks at the woman and feels that she has met the woman somewhere else…
“I have never met any young girls as tough as you. You ran after the thief across nine streets. Seriously, I followed you after he robbed your phone and you really ran after him across nine streets.”
Xia Ning feels her face frozen!
That is bad. The woman was with the thief! She was in charge of giving alarming!
“Sorry. I still have something to handle. I may leave now.”
“Wait a minute!”
The woman holds out her hand to stop Xia Ning. Xia Ning alertly touches her bracelet.
Once the woman takes any moves, she will start it!
“I put a tracking instrument on that thief just now. Someone else will take care of him. Girl, don’t be afraid. I am not a bad person.”
The woman takes out a phone and dials a number, “Hey. XiaosiXiaosi? You may open the monitor. I used the new instrument you gave me today. Nothing serious. It is just a little thief. You don’t need to do that yourself. Send any small team there and take them all down together. I am fine. Don’t worry! I was trained for that! Well. I may stop here. I am really fine. Bye!”
Xia Ning blinks her eyes. Seemingly, the woman is calling some kind of inst.i.tution.
Can it be the police office?
Tracking instrument? It is not for normal people to carry them.
The woman looks at her. She is aware of Xia Ning’s confusion. She asks, “You are Xia Ning, aren’t you?”
Xia Ning is shocked blankly!
How does the woman know her name?
The woman smiles naughtily, “Destiny. It is really a destiny. I like you. You showed the struggling power. I really like that!”
“May I ask…who you are?” Xia Ning checks over the woman again. She is taller than Xia Ning, looking very pretty. Xia Ning can tell that she is practical in Kung Fu.
The woman looks alertly around and takes the sungla.s.ses off, “I will give you ten seconds to introduce me. Now, I may count: one, two, three…”
Ten seconds later, Xia Ning feels greatly shocked!
G.o.d! Does she really look clearly?
The bright eyes with double-fold eyelids, the small oval face and the light pink between her eyebrows…This woman is Tang Qieying for sure!
Before coming to Beijing, Xia Ning learned a lot about Tang Qieying. Tang is a frank person. She has a clear concept about the good and the bad. Xia Ning was thinking about how she could meet and talk with her.
Well. Tang Qieying shows up here by herself.
Xia Ning has to admit that it is really an unbelievable destiny!
This is what people always say “taking no effort to get the thing you are dreamed of ”!
“Madam, you are very beautiful.” Xia Ning is stunned for quite a while before she collects herself. She unconsciously speaks out the words.
Tang Qieying is really beautiful.
She is already over fifty years old. But after she takes off the sungla.s.ses on her face, she looks like a woman in her twenties. Her skin is tender.
Her features and skin may cause a lot of young girls to envy!
Tang Qieying blinks her eyes. She puts on the sungla.s.ses, “Ha. I know. Girl, you too. Commander Yi is very lucky to marry you.”
There are always many people trying to please her and they all start the conversation with this sentence. However, based on her experience of over fifties years, Tang Qieying can tell Xia Ning is speaking sincerely.
Xia Ning blushes when she hears the name of Yi Yunrui. She feels shy, “Madam, you are flattering me.”
Seemingly, Tang Qieying knows about her. Tang Qieying is an international queen in the circle while she, Xia Ning, is only a n.o.body. However, Tang Qieying knows something about her, which impresses Xia Ning very much!
“Ning, don’t tell other people who I am. You may call me…hum, Yingying. Yes, Yingying!”
“Puff!” Xia Ning can’t help bursting into laughter. Tang Qieying is over fifty, old enough to be a grandmother. However, she is still mentally young. That is really hard.
Tang Qieying widens her eyes, “Why? Don’t laugh! They all call me Yingying.”
“Madam, don’t take it wrong. I don’t mean anything bad. If I call you Yingying, other people may think that I am trying to please you for your favor…”
“It is fine. I can tell at first sight whether someone is bad or good. It is OK for you to call me Yingying.” Tang Qieying points at the bike lying on the ground beside her, “Ning, you ran very fast. I grabbed the bike from a young man. The problem is that I don’t know how to return it. Oh…yes. I can post a note and the young man will naturally come to pick it up.”
Then, Tang Qieying puts the bike aside. She takes a photo of it and makes a call, “Zhou, have you received my photo? Yeah. Write a message in your blog and ask the owner to pick it up. That is all. Bye!”
“Ning, we may find a place to hide.” Tang Qieying draws Xia Ning to go to a small lane.
After ten minutes, a big crowd of people get around the bike.
“That’s the young man.” Tang Qieying points at a man about seventeen, “That is him. Now, the bike goes back to its owner. We can leave.”
Xia Ning has not responded, but Tang Qieying draws her hand and turns to leave.
Twenty minutes later, they arrive at the snack bar Roaster Ji.
“Ji, don’t tell anybody that I have roast here. If you dare to tell anyone, I will kill you by myself.” Tang Qieying takes off her sungla.s.ses and the cap. She puts them aside and shouts at the owner of the snack bar.
“I know. I know. Ying, you have been here many times. Did I ever tell other people once? Don’t worry, take your time to eat! Still to eat in the crude style?
“Yes. Send me a big lamb leg!”
“OK. Coming!”
Soon, the owner brings them a lamb leg. Xia Ning sees Tang Qieying practically put the lamb leg on the rack. She applies the sauce to it and roasts it. Xia Ning is so surprised that she can hardly speak.
Well. Tang Qieying is sweet and beautiful on the screen. However, in real life…G.o.d. Yingying, you are so mighty that even your family may feel shocked.
“Did I surprise you?” Tang Qieying smiles. She uses a little knife to cut the lamb leg, “Good. It is almost done. It will be ready very soon.”
“Yes, a little.” Xia Ning honestly responds, “But you are very cute.”
“Cute?” Tang Qieying blinks her eyes, “Seriously? I am famous for being bold.”
“I think you are really cute.” Xia Ning covers her mouth and smiles.
Tang Qieying is the same as Yi Yunrui in the ranking of the army. However, Xia Ning doesn’t know whether she has ever been in any battles.
“Yingying, can you eat a lot? This is a big leg.”
“How can one leg be enough?” Tang Qieying waves her hand, “We are two people! I can eat a lot. I am a real food aficionado. Once I have got any time, I will go around the world looking for all kinds of delicious food. However, I like roast most.”
Tang Qieying cuts a piece of meat and pa.s.ses it to Xia Ning, “Ning, do you like to eat in the elegant style, or in the crude style? Crude style is something like this. You act like a man and roast the meat by yourself. Elegant style is to ask the owner to get it done for you.”
Xia Ning takes the meat over. She gloves herself and boldly dips the meat in the sauce. She takes a bite, “Surely, I like the crude style! To roast it by myself provides a sense of success! Wow. It is extremely tasty. It is not at all smelly like normal mutton!”
She doesn’t want to eat mutton because of the special smell of it. However, the meat Tang Qieying roasts smells delicious and nothing else.
“I am very confident about my cooking.” Tang Qieying cuts a big piece of meat and bites it herself.
At the time, the owner of the snack bar brings some wine to them. It is a kind of sweet rice wine with little alcohol. It tastes sweet and is rich in flavor.
“I like sweet wine. I don’t like that with a high proportion of alcohol, which may kill people.” Tang Qieying shakes her head, “Ning, what do you think?”
Xia Ning nods, “In my opinion, wine is for tasting. It is to be tasted slowly.”
“You are right. When I have time, I will go to see you in C City!”
They talk and laugh. Unconsciously, they finish the whole lamb leg and they order another one.
“Ning, if we can’t finish it, you may pack and take it. Don’t waste food.”
Xia Ning nods.
“Well. Your exclusive interview is arranged in five days. Why do you come to Beijing so early?”
When the exclusive interview is mentioned, Xia Ning wonders whether she should write the accident in it. Ha. That will be astonis.h.i.+ngly surprising.
“I…I come to travel around Beijing. So, I came here in advance.”
“Oh.” Tang Qieying glances at Xia Ning. She asks meaningfully, “You miss your husband, don’t you?”
