Chapter 488 They All Died
The car goes to an isolated place in the suburban area and Xia Ning hears the propeller of a helicopter from somewhere far away. After another while, Xia Ning finds the helicopter parking ahead. It is the very one sent by the police.
Yi Yunrui pulls up not far away from the helicopter and gets off the car. Xia Ning follows him. They have just taken a few steps when Xia Ning sees the woman in black walk to them hurriedly.
“Commander!” The woman in black cries loudly and starts to run and throws herself into Yi Yunrui’s embrace in an instant!
Yi Yunrui doesn’t seem to avoid her and the woman in black directly hugs him.
Xia Ning feels shocked to see that.
Who is this woman? It seems that she is very familiar with Yi Yunrui. They seem to be intimate…
The woman has only stayed in Yi Yunrui’s embrace for few seconds when Yi Yunrui pushes her away at once. He holds out his hand and hugs his wife tightly in his embrace. He turns to the woman in black, “Man, this is my wife, Xia Ning.”
Man looks at Xia Ning. Her charming eyes are blurred with tears. However, she smiles more happily. She holds out her hand to Xia Ning, “Mrs. Yi, I am Man, nice to meet you.”
“Nice to meet you.” They shake hands. There are calluses on Man’s hand. It doesn’t feel as soft as other women’s hands. Xia Ning can tell that it is because of long-term exercises.
At this time, the queue of police cars arrives. The leader from the first car gets off and walks to them. He salutes them and greets, “Commander Yi, Commander Man, Mrs. Yi!”
“Uncle.” Man says in a teasing voice, “There are totally nine robbers on the helicopter. They are tied there. You may go to pick them up.”
“Yes!” The leader responds in a loud voice and leads his team to the helicopter.
Soon, they drag the robbers from the helicopter. All the robbers are tied like dumplings.
Xia Ning is shocked blankly. Man was alone there while the robbers all have weapons with them. Did she get rid of them all by herself?
G.o.d. That’s really, really awesome!
“Commander.” Man takes out a pack of cigarettes and takes one. She lights it and says, “I haven’t had any good food for quite a while. Can you buy me a delicious dinner?”
Yi Yunrui holds out his hand and takes the lit cigarette from Man’s hand, “It is fine for you to have anything. However, my wife is pregnant and she doesn’t like the smell of smoke.”
Man feels surprised. She collects the cigarette, “Oh. Well. Mrs. Yi, sorry. I am rude. I didn’t notice. Please forgive me.”
Xia Ning smiles, “It doesn’t matter.” She wonders what’s the relation between this woman and Yi Yunrui. She doesn’t know who she is.
Man likes eating raw food. Yi Yunrui intentionally orders all kinds of seafood sas.h.i.+mi in Hokkaido Sus.h.i.+ restaurant for her. Man eats the sas.h.i.+mi and drinks sahi greedily. Her eyes are almost curved into a line, “Yummy. It is delicious! I haven’t had such delicious food for a long time!”
It happens again and again that Man takes up the cigarette and puts it down. She rubs her hands on her clothes. In the end, she directly throws the cigarette out of the window.
Xia Ning feels shocked. Seemingly, Man is addicted to cigarettes.
Man doesn’t stop eating until she finished a few plates of seafood sas.h.i.+mi and two bowls of rice. She looks very beautiful and s.e.xy. However, she eats as greedily as if she has just been set free from the jail. Her appet.i.te doesn’t seem harmonious with her beautiful face at all.
Yi Yunrui takes out a pack of chewing gums and pa.s.ses it to Man, “My wife is here. Please have some chewing gums instead.”
Man takes it over without any hesitation. She puts all the five gums into her mouth at once, “Commander, I haven’t tasted the flavor of gums for a long time! Are there any other delicious or funny things to come for me?”
She doesn’t think the plates of sas.h.i.+mi enough and asks for other things to eat and drink and play… Xia Ning feels shocked. Man looks strong, but she is not very tall. Can she take so much food?”
As if he has predicted Man’s requirements, Yi Yunrui takes out a card and puts it in front of Man, “It is for you to play and eat. You don’t need to save money.”
Man hesitates for a little while and then she takes the card and puts it into her bag.
At this time, Yi Yunrui’s phone rings. He glances at the name on the screen. Then, he turns to Xia Ning, “Sweetheart, you may talk with Man for a while. I need to take this.”
Then, he walks out.
It is the first time for them to meet each other. Xia Ning knows nothing about Man. However, she is sure about one thing: Man is an excellent fighter. She can’t be a normal woman.
“Mrs. Yi, I used to belong to a team with a designation.” Xia Ning has not asked while Man starts to introduce herself, “But it doesn’t exist now.”
“Why doesn’t it exist?”
Man shrugs her shoulders, “They all died.”
Xia Ning can’t help s.h.i.+vering to hear her words.
They all died? … G.o.d. What happened?
Only special forces have designations. Xia Ning doesn’t know how many special forces teams Man has ever been in. However, based on what she says, she is the only survivor. Xia Ning can’t imagine what this charming woman has gone through!
“This time, Commander Yi deliberately summons me back.” Man puts another piece of sas.h.i.+mi into her mouth. She says when chewing, “Ah. I can finally sleep on a bed tonight.”
Man is a woman with special experience. Xia Ning looks at her with some kind of compa.s.sion, “What’s your plan?”
“I don’t know. I may follow the commander’s order. I will do whatever he tells me to do.”
“Where are your parents?”
Man turns silent. She puts down her chopsticks. She drinks up the big cup of sahi and responds, “My family are all dead. My friends are all dead, too.”
Xia Ning can’t help taking a cold breath. She feels chilly, wondering what a hard life Man has had.
Man takes another mouthful of sahi and gives a sigh. She puts down the cup, “Mrs. Yi, I feel a little tired. I want to stay here to have a rest for some time. Can you allow me to stay in C City?”
Not expecting that Man will ask her in such a pleading voice, Xia Ning’s heart softens in an instant, “You silly girl, you can stay if you want. No one can stop you…”
“I am afraid that you may be jealous!” Man shakes her head, “Commander Yi used to have some other women around, who were very jealous. Well, I was afraid that I might bother commander Yi and I also felt bored with those women. So, I often found some tasks and got myself away from them.”
The women Man mentions must be Mei Ruo and Yin Jingyao.
“Mrs. Yi, you are different from those women. I can tell it. So, I ask you directly. I won’t disturb you and commander Yi very long, one or two months at most. When I figure out what I am going to do in the future, I will leave.”
This woman has no family, no friends and no home. Xia Ning can understand her loneliness. A woman can be very strong and talented. However, as a woman, she needs to find her home and settle down.
“Man, don’t worry. You can stay as long as you like. I don’t mind.”
Man’s eyes brighten. But she returns calm very soon, “Thank you, Mrs. Yi. Actually, Commander Yi summons me back for some tasks. I will ask him after he finishes the phone conversation.”
Somewhere outside the restaurant.
“Rui, ha, ha. You have grown up. You are good at it.”
Yi Yunrui slightly lifts his lips, “Brother, I learn from you. You are excellent, too.”
Actually, the accident happened to Leng Weiwei was Yi Yunrui’s plan.
Jing Shu told Zhang Hai that Yi’s Multinational Group wanted to withdraw their staff. Though his wife solved the problem, it was not easy for Yi Yunrui to get over the offense.
It is not a surprise for brothers to have some confrontations. It is no more than a game of fighting fire with water. However, his lovely wife is the bottom line of his tolerance. The truth of the accident is that Yi Yuntian offended Xia Ning and Yi Yunrui fought back.
“You make quite an effort on it, didn’t you?”
“No. It was arranged in advance.” Yi Yunrui responds frankly.
“Rui, aren’t you afraid that I may really be enraged?”
“Bother, aren’t you afraid that I may turn seriously furious?”
They both turn silent. After quite a while, Yi Yuntian starts laughing loudly first, “Good. We may try. Anyway, I feel really bored recently.”
“Eldest brother, Ning is pregnant. Please be careful.”
“… It is fine. I will train your son to resist shock. You should feel grateful.”
“Oh. That is right.” Yi Yunrui giggles, “Then, I may also help you to test whether my future eldest sister-in-law is loyal enough.”
Hearing this, Yi Yuntian turns silent for a longer while…
Inside the private room of the restaurant.
“Mrs. Yi, I haven’t come to C City for many years. Do you have a detailed map of the city?”
“I don’t have it by hand. There are many on the website. Well, Man, do you have a cell phone?”
“I have thrown my phone away. I will buy another one later.”
“…There are maps on the phone, you can download one later.”
They are still talking when Yi Yunrui comes back. He sits down by Xia Ning. Then, he takes out a brand new Ipino 6 and pa.s.ses it to Man, “There is a new card inside the phone. It is ready for use.”
Man blinks her eyes. She takes the phone and puts it into her pocket, “Thank you, Commander.”
Yi Yunrui takes up a cup of sahi for a sip.
“Commander, don’t you summon me back for a task? What’s the task?”
Yi Yunrui puts down the empty cup and responds, “You go to have an interview in the World Era Weekly for the position of an a.s.sistant to Mrs. Yi.”
Hearing his words, both the women feel surprised.
“Commander!” Man speaks first, “I am an army woman. I can’t do office work. I will bring trouble to Mrs. Yi.”
“You won’t bring trouble to me.” Xia Ning says, “However, Man is so excellent. Won’t she feel wronged to be my a.s.sistant?”
Yi Yunrui slightly lifts his lips to put on a meaningful smile, “Man, your real task is: you are in charge of Mrs. Yi’s safety.”
Man closes her mouth. She drinks a mouthful of sahi and stops speaking.
Xia Ning thinks for a while and understands. Yi Yunrui said that he would arrange someone to protect her. However, Man…. She says, “Darling, Man has just come back, she may need to have a rest first.”
“Hum.” Yi Yunrui casually responds, “Man, listen carefully. It is now seven in the evening. You will have thirteen hours for a rest. You have to arrive at the military compound at eight tomorrow morning.”
Man turns seriously and responds loudly, “Yes, Commander!”
