Chapter 138 Face It at Ease
Yin Jingsi looks at her with a strange expression, as if she is making a challenge, a show-off, and a test. Xia Ning smiles gently: “In the content of the exclusive interview, there are some gossipy questions. This is the questions list. You may have a look.”
Saying this, Xia Ning pa.s.ses the file she has prepared to Yin Jingsi.
The so-called exclusive interview is to talk about the questions which readers want to know most.
As to Yin Jingsi’ exclusive interview, though it is mainly about the latest products of L’Oreal, it will also be about Yin Jingsi’s love, marriage, success and so on. To make the exclusive interview, they have made research in the whole entertainment circle.
Yin Jingsi is very popular with people. Normal people are most interested in her personal love story.
Yin Jingsi browses the file: “Hum…there are some questions which are very private.”
“If Miss Yin thinks them unsuitable, we can revise them cooperatively.” Seeing that Yin Jingsi gives some implication, Wan Liqing interrupts.
Yin Jingsi glances at Wan Liqing and shakes her head: “No need. It is not news conference. It doesn’t need to be so formal. With some gossipy questions, more people will be attracted, which is good for the promotion of the new products of the company.” Saying this, Yin Jingsi closes the file. “I will try my best to cooperate with you in the exclusive interview. As to the content of the interview, I don’t have any disagreement.”
“Thank you, Miss Yin.” Xia Ning smiles professionally. She wants to say something when they hear someone knocking at the door of the office.
Yin Jingsi glances at the camera for the outside. She smiles and says to Xia Ning and Wan Liqing happily: “Sorry to interrupt, my husband comes.”
Ou Yixuan comes?
Xia Ning is confused. She glances at the time. It is 4:00 PM, not yet the time to get off work. Does he come at this time for work?”
The door is opened and a tall man comes in. It is Ou Yixuan.
Ou Yixian wears casual white clothes and looks handsome as he always is.
Ou Yixuan is surprised to find that there are other people in the office. When he sees clearly that Xia Ning is there, he is stunned.
“Ning, why are you here?” Ou Yixuan almost unconsciously asks the question.
It is a little embarra.s.sing. Xia Ning keeps her professional smile: “Director Ou, we are here for…”
“Honey, they come here for work.” Not waiting for Xia Ning to finish her words, Yin Jingsi interrupts. She sees what is in Ou Yixuan’s hand and says gently: “Honey, you don’t need to bother with it next time. I will drink it after I go home.”
Ou Yixuan looks uneasy suddenly. He lowers his head, saying: “It is all right. Anyway, I am free at home today. Ning happens to be here, too. She may taste it with you.”
Saying this, Ou Yixuan puts the soup bottle on Yin Jingsi’s desk and says: “It is just cooked. It is coconut with chicken. Do you like it?”
“Yes. As long as it is cooked by you, I like it.” Yin Jingsi looks gentle. Her eyes are bright and she smiles sweetly.
Looking at the silver vacuum flask, Xia Ning feels really surprised.
Ou Yixuan is a male chauvinist. One month ago, he still waited downstairs for Xia Ning, saying that he didn’t want to lose her. One month later, he becomes the good family man who cooks the soup and sends it to his wife’s office.
What a great change!
To be honest, Xia Ning believes the power of love, but she can’t surely believe that Ou Yixuan can change all of a sudden
Two years ago, if she had seen this scene, she would have been painful to feel crazy, but now…
If Ou Yixuan does change himself and love Yin Jingsi, she is really willing to see scenes like this.
Ou Yixuan opens the flask carefully and they smell the delicious soup.
Not waiting for the couple to speak, Xia Ning says: “Miss Yin, if there are no problems about the exclusive interview, we will carry out the plan as it is.”
Yin Jingsi nods, “Hum. It is fine with me. Ning, a.s.sistant Wan, come here to drink some soup together.”
“Thank you.” Xia Ning smiles, “This soup is prepared by Director Ou specially for his wife. We would rather not get involved. That’s all for today. Miss Yin, we may leave now.”
Seeing that Xia Ning decisively wants to leave, Yin Jingsi doesn’t keep her staying. They talk briefly about some instructions and then Xia Ning and Wan Liqing leave Yin Jingsi’s office.
The door of the office is closed. Ou Yixuan puts a bowl of soup in front of Yin Jingsi, “Jingsi, what is Xia Ning here for?”
Yin Jingsi blinks her eyes and smiles: “Nothing. I am going to have an exclusive interview tomorrow and Xia Ning is in charge of it. She comes here today for the exclusive interview.” Yin Jingsi takes a sip of the soup, “Wow, it is delicious. Honey, you get better in cooking.”
“If you like it, have more. It is good for health.” Ou Yixuan responds gently.
“OK. I will drink the soup up!” Yin Jingsi lowers her head to drink the soup. Her eyes blink.
She guessed it correctly. Xia Ning is still threatening.
The defense war of marriage has to be carried on to the end!
Facing her enemy, she is not going to have mercy!
Soon after she goes out of Yin Jingsi’s office, Xia Ning’s phone rings. It is her mother-in-law, Zheng Yao.
“Ning, have you finished your work?”
Xia Ning can’t help smiling, thinking that her mother-in-law calls at the right time!
“Hum. It is finished. Mom, I am coming home.”
“I’ll tell Dahai to pick you up. You may stay where you are.”
“Mom. There is no need. We will go there by taxi.”
“It is all right. Yi Villa is not far away from L’Oreal company. You may wait for ten minutes.” Saying this, Zhang Yao turns to say: “Dahai, please drive to pick up Ning.”
“OK. Madam.”
Hearing the conversation at the other end of the phone, Xia Ning is helpless. Since her mother-in-law has arranged like this, how can she refuse?
“OK, Mom, I will wait here.”
Xia Ning hangs up. Wan Liqing smiles: “Was that your mother-in-law?”
“Hum.” Xia Ning nods, “She arranges someone to pick us up.”
Hearing this, Wan Liqing lightly blinks her eyes: “You have got a kind mother-in-law.”
“Yes. My mother-in-law is frank and kind.”
They go into the elevator, which goes down slowly.
Wan Liqing looks at Xia Ning’s back. She thinks for a while, saying: “Director, I heard that you were with Mr. Ou in the past. Is that true?”
“Hum.” Xia Ning nods.
If this question had been asked two years, or even one year ago, Xia Ning would have been painful. However, today, seeing that Ou Yixuan and Yin Jingsi are sweet together, she doesn’t feel painful when facing this question. She can even face it at ease. She is very happy to realize her change.
Aware of the hesitation of Wan Liqing, Xia Ning smiles: “Actually, this is not a secret. Everyone in B City knows it. However, there are bad rumors about that. I believe that the version you heard was that I was the third person between them. Am I right?”
Wan Liqing nods: “Director, please don’t mind. I learned it when I made the market investigation. Anyway, I believed that it must be a rootless rumor. Director had such a good husband, Commander Yi, how was that possible that you would be the third person of others.”
Xia Ning smiles, mocking herself and says frankly: “To be honest, I didn’t know my husband at that time.”
Hearing this, Wan Liqing is shocked. After a while, she collects herself: “Then, Director and Commander Yi…”
“We had a quicker marriage!” Xia Ning is naughty, “Ugh, it is a romantic affair, really romantic affair!”
Wan Liqing is shocked. Affair?
Xia Ning gives a sigh: “Well, it happened two years ago. Hehe, youth. Everyone has that kind of pa.s.sionate history. Do you agree?”
“Pa.s.sionate history…” Wan Liqing murmurs lightly. She looks at somewhere very far away.
That’s right. Who hasn’t ever been young? Who hasn’t ever been pa.s.sionate…
However, her youth is more of guilt and regret.
She can only blame herself for being too stupid. Happiness was so close to her, but she didn’t know how to cherish it.
“Liqing, here comes the car. Let’s go.”
Xia Ning calls and Wan Liqing is drawn back from her meditation.
A black Audi is parked not far away. The license number tells that the car has a superior owner.
Everything is blurred before Wan Liqing’s eyes. The car… is heading for Yi Villa…
“h.e.l.lo, Mrs. Yi.” Dahai performs an army salute to Xia Ning and then looks at Wan Liqing, “h.e.l.lo.”
“Dahai, this is my a.s.sistant, Wan Liqing.”
“Nice to meet you, Commander.”
Huang Dahai nods: “h.e.l.lo, Miss Wan. Mrs. Yi, you finally come back to B City. The old lady misses you very much.”
“It is my fault. I will accept the education from the organization and make changes in the future. Commander, don’t worry.” Xia Ning naughtily responds.
“No, no, no.” Hearing this, Dahai waves his hand hurriedly, “Mrs. Yi, you are teasing me. Come on, please get on the car. The old lady is waiting at home for you.”
They get in the car. It goes stably but fast. Soon, they get to Yi Villa.
They enter Yi Villa. Xia Ning and Wan Liqing get off the car and Dahai helps them get the luggage.
Zheng Yao comes out from the main house. She says when she meets Xia Ning: “Ning, you are finally here. Come here, we may talk inside.”
Not expecting that Zheng Yao will give her such an enthusiastic welcome, Xia Ning feels she is flattered. She goes to hold Zheng Yao’s hand, saying: “Mom, please wait for a minute.” Saying this, Xia Ning points at Wan Liqing, “Mom, this is my a.s.sistant, Wan Liqing.”
Zheng Yao nods and glances at Wan Liqing, “Come inside together. Ah, we haven’t been busy in this house for a long time. As an old lady, I feel bored.”
Xia Ning smiles: “Mom, you are kidding. You don’t look old at all.”
They talk, while the door of the Yi Villa is opened again and another black Audi goes in. It goes fast and stops quickly. They look at that and find it Yi Yunyi’s car.
Zheng Yao and Xia Ning are both surprised to see that.
The second son of Yi family is the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee who is seldom seen. There should be quite a lot of work for him at this time. Why does he come home all of a sudden?
