Chapter 361 Don’t Despise Me
Su Xueli hesitates. She thinks for a while and can’t understand what Su Shen means. She asks, “Mr. Su, can you tell me what are the differences between Director Xia and me? If it is possible, I want to learn from her.”
Yes. Xia Ning is more successful than her. The men who surround Xia Ning are so excellent. She envies her!
When Yi Yunrui was looking at her. She felt very frightened, but she also clearly realized that there was an exciting voice vaguely crying at the bottom of her heart!
If she could have this man look at her sincerely all her life, what a happy life it would be!
“Li, listen to me. Du Bei was right. Xia Ning is a tricky fox. She is smart, brave and devious. That’s the thing I admire and I need. I hope the woman staying with me in the future will be at least tricky so that my future life won’t be boring.”
Hearing this, Su Xueli feels shocked. She mildly opens her mouth but can’t respond for a while.
Mr. Su, who is always elegant… can say such words…
“Do you feel surprised?”
“Oh… I…”
“Good girl. Don’t argue.” Su Shen’s voice sounds gently magnetic. It is very attractive. He says, “Don’t tell anyone what I say today. It is a small secret between you and me. I have spent tens of years. If I still follow the regular rules, that is boring. Li, do you agree with me?”
What he says is just like a charm. Su Xueli listens to him. Her eyes gleam and gradually she is convinced. She nods, “Yes. Mr. Su, you are right. I will work hard…”
Su Xueli hangs up and leaves. Zhang Hai goes out from the dark and stops the recording on his phone.
The problem is caused by someone familiar.
One week later.
“Darling, I almost recover. You don’t need to make such nutritious soup every day for me.” Xia Ning puts down the soup in her hand. She strokes Yi Yunrui’s face worriedly, “I am your wife. Taking care of you is my duty as a wife. Next time, let me make the soup, prepare the dishes, cook the rice and do the housework. Will you?”
Yi Yunrui holds his lovely wife’s hand. He shakes his head, “The doctor said that you needed to take a good rest. We need to pay special attention to your arm, or, it won’t look pretty if it has any scars. Come on. Drink some soup.”
Xia Ning curls her lips, “If it has some scars, you will dislike me, won’t you?”
Yi Yunrui feels shocked. He smiles and pats her head, “Don’t take it wrong. You know I don’t mean that.”
She surely knows that Yi Yunrui doesn’t mean that. She deliberately says it in that way!
She just wants to scare him and stop him from being busy!
Ever since they came home from the hospital, Yi Yunrui has been taking care of her considerately every day. He even doesn’t allow her to get off the bed. Well. She only has some minor wounds. It is unnecessary for him to be so worried about her.
She sees Yi Yunrui being busy around. She feels that he seems to be expiating his guilt.
He is blaming himself for not taking good care of her.
That is silly.
The root cause of this accident is her naughtiness. She didn’t have to get involved in the case.
“Darling.” She holds his face and says word by word, “I am fine already. Do you understand? Now, we are both at home. We can cook together and do the housework together. Do you agree?”
It has been a week and Yi Yunrui has been staying at home all day long. She feels surprised and very worried.
She stealthily asked Zhang Hai about it. But Zhang Hai pursed his lips and didn’t respond.
Yi Yunrui must be hiding something from her!
He is the great army commander of the military region. How can he stay at home every day? Even if he is not busy, he can’t have so much free time.
Yi Yunrui slightly freezes his eyes. But he shakes his head, “No. I will manage all these on my own…”
“Darling, do you think that a husband and his wife should be honest with each other?” Xia Ning interrupts Yi Yunrui’s words.
Yi Yunrui feels confused. He doesn’t understand what his wife means. He asks, “What do you mean?”
“Do you think we should be honest with each other? You may answer yes or now.” Xia Ning says word by word.
Yi Yunrui looks at Xia Ning’s eyes and nods, “Yes.”
“Good. Then, I will ask some questions. You have to answer frankly.”
Yi Yunrui’s face mildly freezes, “Ning, you know, I can’t tell you all the things.”
“But you surely can answer this one.” Xia Ning leans to him, “Does anything happened in the military region? You stay at home all day long. Or, you may choose to tell me the result of your Beijing trip. I feel that I am the only one who doesn’t know it. It is not fair at all.”
Yi Yunrui purses his lips. He sighs and puts down the soup bowl in his hand.
Xia Ning sees his reactions. She feels her heart tightened, “Darling, does anything serious happen?”
“Nothing serious.” Yi Yunrui responds slowly. He thinks for quite a while. Then, he lifts his head, “Ning, if I have lost everything now, will you still stay with me?”
Xia Ning is shocked blankly.
What does he mean by losing everything?
“What on earth happened? Rui, I hope you can tell me frankly.” Xia Ning becomes anxious, “Sometimes, I wish I were Mei Ruo. She knows what happens to you. I don’t. I envy her!”
Yi Yunrui frowns, “Ning, you are my wife…”
“If you still regard me as your wife. Then, please tell me the truth. Will you?”
“Ning.” Yi Yunrui thinks for a while. Then, he says slowly, “I am suspended from my duty by the Army Department.”
Suspended from his duty!
“Do they remove your t.i.tle?”
“Not yet. The Central Army Department said that they would investigate me and kept that under consideration. However, I believe that it is just a matter of releasing the official doc.u.ment. Ning, in the future, I will have to stay at home every day. Do you think a husband like that is useless?”
To be suspended from his duty and stay at home at leisure…
Xia Ning feels a shocking pain in her heart!
That is because of her. Yi Yunrui is going through all these because of her!
“Is it because…the land issue?”
“Partially.” Yi Yunrui gently strokes her hair, “Ning, don’t worry about that. It is not as simple as you say. However, one thing is sure. I am going to become a househusband. My only use will be preparing the soup for you every day. Will you despise me?”
The plan has been set up. Who is going to be the winner will depend on their capabilities.
In an instant, Xia Ning feels as if her chest is pressed by a heavy stone. She can barely breathe. If they hadn’t sold that land, Yi Yunrui wouldn’t have been brought into this condition!
“Darling, it is my fault. You didn’t have to sell that land. It is me who received the money. If someone should be convicted, I am the planner of it. Why don’t they come to me? That is unfair.”
“That is silly. It is my name signed on the contract. The amount involved in this case is a little large, so the Central Army Department decides to investigate it carefully. During that time, I am suspended from all my duties. What I can do is to stay at home every day to avoid interfering in the investigation. Ning, what’s wrong? Don’t cry!
Xia Ning’s nose is red and tears are rolling in her eyes. She feels very sad.
Yi Yunrui holds Xia Ning’s hand tightly. He turns serious and says, “Sweetheart, it is not anyone’s fault. Yasi Villa was planned to be sold. It was planned a long time ago. But I was always hesitating. That I decided at that point was my fault. So, I should bear the consequences. Anyway, after you get married to me, we don’t have much time to stay together. Most of the time, we are apart. Sometimes, I think that the Army Department’s decision is good for us. Sweetheart, you may think that I am unambitious. But I only want to stay with you. I want to be your unique … househusband.”
Xia Ning widens her eyes, doubting that it is the Army G.o.d Yi Yunrui speaking. He is a strategist on the battlefield, while he is willing to become normal for her…What a lucky woman she is!
“Darling, I am the housewife.” Xia Ning strokes his handsome face. Her lips mildly tremble, “Let me serve you in the future. Weiwei has approved my long vacation. I can serve you very well…”
“Don’t ever mention the word ‘Serve’.” Yi Yunrui interrupts in a deep voice, “What I want to have is a wife, not a servant. I want to spoil my wife all her life, as long as she doesn’t despise me for being a total failure.”
If Yi Yunrui’s life can be called a total failure, then other people are all losers.
“Wait.” Xia Ning remembers something and she asks anxiously, “Is our property frozen?”
“Those related to the case, yes,” replied Yi Yunrui.
That is over 300 billion.
“Except for the money from Yasi Villa, can we use the other?”
“Yes. The money in your account is from my eldest brother’s properties. So, it has nothing to do with the case.”
“Then, it is fine!” Xia Ning gives a sigh of relief, “Darling, the money we have is enough for us to have a luxurious life!”
Yi Yunrui gently smiles. He strokes her hair, “You said that your dream is to become a Chief Director. We have only one life. We should have a dream. My dream has been realized. I want nothing else. But, Ning, I don’t hope you give up your dream because of me. And I know that you are capable to do it. You have been working at it for many years. There is the last step to go.
Xia Ning’s eyes gleam. Yi Yunrui says that his dream is realized. Can his dream be staying with her…?”
Xia Ning blinks her eyes. She suddenly has an amazing idea, “Darling, do you think that I can set up a newspaper?”
