Chapter 147 24-Hour on
Yi Yunrui’s sharp eyes turn gentle. He lifts his lips naturally and nods: “OK.”
Yi Yunrui agrees so frankly, which surprises Dai Zhongheng. Li Baoer’s face pops up in Dai Zhongheng’s brain. He feels sweet. He salutes Yi Yunrui: “Commander, I have finished the report. I may go back to the camp now.”
“OK.” After Dai Zhongheng leaves, Yi Yunrui takes out his phone and turns to walk to a hidden corner.
He keeps pressing the figure “1” for a while and soon it gets through.
“h.e.l.lo, Darling.”
A sweet voice comes from the other end of the phone. Yi Yunrui feels his heart melting. “Sweetheart, sorry that I haven’t called you until now.”
“It is all right. I know you are busy. Will calling me now disturb your real business?”
“No, it won’t.” In his opinion, his wife and his nation are both important and are both real business.
Xia Ning glances at the time. It is past five in the afternoon. She asks: “Darling, have you had supper?”
“Very soon. And you?”
“Me, too. We are waiting for the second elder brother for dinner.”
“Yi? Will he go back for dinner?” Yi Yunrui is surprised.
Xia Ning smiles, saying: “Yes. Our brother comes home for dinner all these days.” Saying this, Xia Ning glances around and stealthily says: “Darling, I will tell you something after you come back.”
“OK.” Yi Yunrui responds, “I will be back in a few days. How are you these days?”
Xia Ning feels warm. She nods: “I am fine. Is it cold over there? You should wear more clothes.”
When hearing Xia Ning say “I am fine”, Yi Yunrui’s heart tightens. A doubt suddenly pops up in his brain: you are fine even when I am not there?
This unpleasure disappears soon. When he hears the next words from Xia Ning, Yi Yunrui feels as sweet as drinking honey: “Hum. I wear many clothes. I feel very warm.”
Suddenly, Yi Yunrui remembers something. “It is the fifth day already. Why are you still at Mom’s home?”
Based on the time of exclusive interview mentioned by Xia Ning, shouldn’t it have been finished?
“Yin Jingsi had some emergency and postponed two days. I will finish the exclusive interview tomorrow and go back to C City.”
Yi Yunrui is silent for a while, vaguely feeling something wrong there, but he can’t tell what that is.
If only he could stay by Xia Ning.
“Remember, no matter where you are going, bring the phone with you, so that I can contact you any time.”
“I know. I always bring the phone with me, 24-hour on. Darling, you can call me any time.”
Hearing this, Yi Yunrui laughs: “Aren’t you afraid that I may disturb your sleep.”
Hypoglycemic people need to get awake naturally. If they are woken by noise, they tend to lose their temper. He woke her up carelessly several times and was cut by her eyes, as if they are knives.
“No, you can call me when you have time.” It will be just like what happened the other day.
“OK.”
They talk for a while and then it seems that someone is coming for Yi Yunrui and he hangs up. Xia Ning curls her lips and puts the phone into her pocket.
“Wow. Sister Xia smiles so sweetly! That must be your husband!”
Xia Ning has just turned her head when she sees Gu Ruoruo smiling happily and her face looks as beautiful as the peach flower. Xia Ning is shocked, but she frankly smiles and nods: “Hum. It was my husband calling.”
“Ah. I really envy you. Don’t show off your love!” Gu Ruoruo curls her lips, “Oh, no. I have to find a handsome boy and get pampered by him.”
Xia Ning lifts her eyebrows and teases her: “You want to find one? Don’t you have got an uncle with you?”
Hearing this, Gu Ruoruo blushes: “W…what uncle? It is not. Sister Xia, you, you are making fun of me!”
“Haha!” Xia Ning laughs. She is going to speak when suddenly hearing the car horn. She blinks her eyes: “Ruoruo, look, your uncle comes back. Are you happy?”
Hearing this, Gu Ruoruo’s face gets redder. She turns away, saying: “Sister Xia is bad. I don’t play with you.”
Saying this, Gu Ruoruo hurriedly runs towards the toilet.
Gu Ruoruo is an interesting girl. From the speed in which she runs to the toilet, it seems that the wounds on her feet have almost recovered.
Doctor Wu’s medicine really works. It takes only three days.
During the days when Gu Ruoruo stays at Yi Villa, Yi Yunyi almost comes home for dinner on time every day. It seems that he refuses many other dinner appointments.
Naturally, Zheng Yao is very happy to have her son and her daughter-in-law to have dinner at home. She is always smiling. Compared with her previous att.i.tude, Zheng Yao treats Xia Ning completely differently. However, Xia Ning is aware that Zheng Yao is a little uneasy when she looks at Gu Ruoruo.
It reminds Xia Ning of Zheng Yao’s previous att.i.tude to her. Zheng Yao looks at Gu Ruoruo with some defense, though not as sharply as she did previously to Xia Ning.
Zheng Yao always protects her sons. Maybe because Gu Ruoruo mentioned before that she admired Yin Jingsi, Zheng Yao becomes a little concerned about her. During these days, Xia Ning is aware that Zheng Yao has been keeping an eye on Gu Ruoruo.
However, Xia Ning realizes that her mother-in-law has changed a lot. At least, she is not as outspoken as before.
Yi Yunyi and Gu Ruoruo don’t have any direct communication, but they contact with each other by their eyes from time to time. And Gu Ruoruo is always the one who blushes first.
Compared with the enthusiasm of everyone else, Wan Liqing sits alone, as if she is an outsider. She keeps extremely low-key.
Xia Ning knows the relation between Wan Liqing and Gu Luan. She wonders what Wan Liqing thinks when she sees what happen here.
In the evening, Yin Jingsi calls Xia Ning and postpones the exclusive interview for another two hours. As it is now, Xia Ning believes that she can’t go back to C City until the day after tomorrow.
Therefore, she calls Gu Luan and tells him that she won’t be able to go back until the day after tomorrow.
She can only think that Yin Jingsi is really a busy woman.
It is late at night. Yi Yunrui calls Xia Ning. Just as what happened two days ago, the tough guy can’t get asleep and has to listen to her breath to fall asleep.
Hearing Yi Yunrui’s voice which sounds a little tired, Xia Ning feels her heart aching. She wishes that she could fly to Yi Yunrui by an aircraft at once.
If only she were the commissar of Yi Yunrui, just as Mei Ruo.
“Sister Xia, what am I going to do later?”
It is the first time for Gu Ruoruo to take her mission. She is nervous and asks Xia Ning a lot of questions on the way. She is afraid that she may make some mistakes.
Xia Ning smiles and pats on her shoulder to comfort her: “Take it easy. You will stand by me to watch. You don’t need to do anything.”
Gu Ruoruo blinks her eyes. Her lips move, as if she wants to ask a question, but she doesn’t ask any. She nods: “Hum. I see. I will learn carefully.”
When they three come to Yin Jingsi’s office, Yin Jingsi has got everything ready. Xia Ning takes the initiative to greet her and makes the introduction.
At the moment when Gu Ruoruo sees Yin Jingsi’s office, she feels it unbelievable and she adores Yin Jingsi even more keenly.
