Chapter 555 What President Yi Cannot Stand
Due to the secrecy of Beitang Xiu’s ident.i.ty, his interview draft has been modified several times. The interview is scheduled at two o’clock this afternoon, but An Lingxi still feels uncertain until this moment.
Xia Ning takes the draft and checks it carefully. In fact, this interview is not unique as there is nothing special in it. The listed questions are common and include Beitang Xiu’s decision regarding Tianyu’s future and his personal interests.
It is definitely not a challenging interview.
Perhaps it is because of the lack of challenge that An Lingxi feels uncomfortable with it.
“I don’t think there’s anything that needs to be changed. You can go ahead with this draft.” Xia Ning says and contemplates, “Hang on. Shu, please come and take a look at this.”
Jing Shu is surprised at hearing her own name. How dare she give any advice for anything that Deputy Editor An is in charge of?
“Come and take a look. And tell us what you think.” Xia Ning hands over the doc.u.ment to Jing Shu.
With the draft in hand, Jing Shu takes a peek at An Lingxi worriedly.
She is still scared of An Lingxi after An Lingxi has punished her.
“No worries. Please tell me what you think, Shu. Thank you so much.” An Lingxi says sincerely.
Jing Shu purses her lips and nods. She reads through the draft reluctantly.
Indeed, nothing big needs to be changed.
“It looks good to me.” Jing Shu says and hands the draft back to Xia Ning.
Xia Ning lifts her eyebrows, “Are you sure you don’t want to change anything?”
Jing Shu and An Lingxi both sense the hidden message in her words.
An Lingxi looks more confused.
Jing Shu flicks her beautiful big eyes, scratches her head, and says, “Mr. Beitang enjoys coffee very much. And he is amazingly good at making coffee. I suggest we should add this...”
“Really?” Before Jing Shu finishes her words, An Lingxi widens her eyes, “Mr. Beitang also likes coffee! That’s great! I’ve finally got something in common with him!”
With that, An Lingxi feels greatly relieved.
“Chief Editor Xia, Shu, thank you so much. I’ll go and edit the draft now. And I’ll let you have the final check later.” An Lingxi walks out happily.
The door of the chief editor’s office is closed. Xia Ning looks at Jing Shu with some meaningful thoughts.
“Sister Xia, you alright? Why do you look at me in this way?”
“I was thinking whether you sneaked out to have fun after I sent you home last night.”
“Hmm?” Jing Shu opens her mouth with surprise, “No way I would do that. I need to stay with my mom. She can’t sleep without me by her side.”
Xia Ning blinks her eyes, “I see. No worries. I am kidding. Forget it.”
Jing Shu did not seem to be with Zhang Hai last night.
Since it had nothing to do with Jing Shu, how did Zhang Hai end up like this?
Yi Yunrui looks serious and says nothing all the way from the city centre of C City to its suburb where the military region is located. Zhang Hai is highly nervous. He would immediately kneel down before Yi Yunrui to beg for his mercy had he not been driving.
He has no idea what Commander Yi is thinking. The silent punishment is the most terrible!
“Commander, here’s your tea.” Zhang Hai hands Yi Yunrui a cup of hot tea with respect. He then takes a peek at Yi Yunrui cautiously.
Commander Yi is reading a doc.u.ment and ignores everyone.
Zhang Hai gasps and puts down the cup, standing beside Yi Yunrui.
“Ten minutes. Get changed and meet me here!”
A loud voice breaks out. Zhang Hai stands straight immediately and salutes, “Yes! Commander!”
Zhang Hai rushes out of the room with his highest speed. Yi Yunrui puts down the doc.u.ment with some thoughts hidden in his eyes.
Zhang Hai smells of alcohol and the scent of women’s perfume.
The perfume is a little familiar to Yi Yunrui.
Leng Weiwei is carried to the bathroom for a bath by Yi Yuntian.
After another two hour’s craziness, she has lost the strength to think straight.
She cannot feel her body. Does she even have one? She is too tired to feel it!
Yi Yuntian is an animal. He looks fine after ten-hour “hard work”. What a monster she has encountered!
Tepid water touches her skin and gives her warmth. Leaning on him also warms her up. She feels so comfortable in the foggy bathroom that she wants to close her eyes and falls into sleep.
“The water you split on me last night was also of this temperature.”
Yi Yuntian’s charming voice resonates in the bathroom. Leng Weiwei swears in her heart that he is such a meanie.
Is President Yi practicing “an eye for an eye”?
She is swearing in her heart but loses all the strength in her body. She is at her weakest now that anyone can kill her.
“You still have two days left for your holiday, right?”
Leng Weiwei purses her lips and takes a breath.
“You actually have a whole week off, but you only give your future husband two days. Woman, how cruel you are.”
Leng Weiwei rolls her eyes. She does not even want to give him a single day, let alone two days!
“No way. Two days are too short. I’ll call my sister-in-law later to ask for an extension.”
What?
Leng Weiwei widens her eyes and shakes her head with her last strength.
She is miserable after only one day. She cannot stand more! She does not want to have a funeral after her holiday.
Yi Yuntian smiles evilly, “Objection overruled!”
Leng Weiwei rolls her eyes. She is reminded of how she punched Yi Yuntian unconscious last night.
“Woman.” Leaning over, Yi Yuntian bites Leng Weiwei’s ear, “You can do whatever you want when you’re my woman. But remember, you should never lie to me. Otherwise, the result is at your own risk.”
At her own risk... She is having the reflection now.
Never lie to him? She must be joking!
It is a big lie initially that they are together.
A total lie.
Zhang Hai has an explicit knowledge that his Commander is a clean freak.
He has changed to a clean and tidy combat uniform following Yi Yunrui’s order. At least he thinks he has made it. But Yi Yunrui looks cold and frightens him!
After the punishment of was.h.i.+ng his face ten times and showering five times, Zhang Hai, who has nearly lost his skin, finally makes it.
He only knows the reason for Yi Yunrui’s bad mood in the end, which is because he stinks!
Given that he drank loads of Hennessy and lost his consciousness last night, it is inevitable.
Even Commander Yi cannot stand his smell. He wonders how Christine felt last night.
Anyway, did he really sleep with her?
Even if he had lost his consciousness, it would be impossible that he felt nothing, right?
But the thing is that he woke up this morning with a naked beauty lying beside him. If he dares to say nothing has happened, even the G.o.d cannot let him walk away easily.
Meanwhile, Zhang Hai’s phone makes some noise. It is a message.
Zhang Hai takes a peek at his boss, who is reading a doc.u.ment, and then turns around and takes out his phone to check it.
“Hai, don’t worry about last night. Just forget it. We are still good friends, right?”
D*rn it. They slept together. How can he forget such a thing?
Good friends. That is for sure. But it is getting more complicated than merely good friends after last night.
“Zhang Hai.”
“Yes!” Zhang Hai responds subconsciously. He nearly drops his phone.
“Get the car ready. I have a meeting downtown.”
“Yes!”
Zhang Hai cannot reply to Christine due to this emergency. He feels worried.
Does his no reply imply his acquiescence?
How can a man wuss out like this!
Though he is unsure about his feelings towards Christine, he knows that no man can dislike a beauty like Christine.
When Zhang Hai is driving, another message arrives. Zhang Hai feels more worried.
“Keep your head down.”
Commander Yiin the back seat reminds him coldly. Zhang Hai takes a deep breath, “Yes!”
Commander Yi has not punished him for his disobeying the order until now. If he makes any mistake again, he will ask for it without Commander Yi saying a word.
After sixty seconds of redlight, Zhang Hai hits the gas and drives Knight XV forward. Commander Yi has a meeting in the city council. It will be another ten-minute drive for them to get there.
“Zhang Hai, watch out!”
Suddenly, Yi Yunrui shouts. Before Zhang Hai can react, a huge banging noise breaks out. The car is. .h.i.t by something from behind!
Seconds after the first bang, another bang breaks out from behind, followed by screaming from the crowd.
The hit is not brutal, though the noise is big. Knight XV is an armored vehicle and can endure a significant impact. They only feel that the car shakes slightly, but the thing that hit it cannot be so lucky!
“Commander, please stay in the car. I’ll go and check!” Zhang Hai gets alerted immediately. Knight XV takes up a large s.p.a.ce. Only the blind might run into it easily.
They cannot rule out the possibility of a terrorist attack.
Zhang Hai only takes a short time to think about it. He is shocked at what he sees.
It is a Ferrari with a significant dent in its front. So, it was this car that ran into them. There is another car hit on the Ferrari, which probably explains the second bang.
Why does this Ferrari look so familiar?
Two seconds later.
“Christine!” As if his heart is stabbed hard by a knife, Zhang Hai rushes to the Ferrari. The woman in its driver’s seat is Christine!
“It’s you?” An Lingxi presses her forehead with blood oozing out from her fingers. She looks pale when she sees Christine being unconscious with blood all over her.
“Christine! Gosh, help!”
Before An Lingxi’s cries, Zhang Hai rushes to the car to bring out Christine carefully.
