Chapter 252 There Are Plenty of Chances in the Future
At a coffee shop.
Xia Ning wanted to leave. But she is forced to stay by Lei Buyang. Listening to his previous messy romance histories, Xia Ning can’t stop laughing.
She doesn’t want to laugh. It looks impolite. But she fails to control herself. In addition, Lei Buyang himself also can’t help laughing. So, she can’t restrain herself from laughing, too.
“Ah…” Lei Buyang gives a light sigh. He shakes his head, “Last time, in that small town, I was breaking up with my 108th girlfriend.”
Xia Ning puffs the coffee out.
She puts down the coffee cup and takes up a piece of tissue to wipe her mouth.
G.o.d. The 108th breaking up. He has a group of ex-girlfriends equal to the quant.i.ty of 108 Liangshan Heroes in the famous Chinese cla.s.sic novel.
Well. They are 108 heroines.
“Mr. Lei, why do you have to torture yourself in this way? You may not tell other people what you do, but with your nice look, how can you be in such a bad luck?”
“That’s right. I also believed I was so handsome that people and the G.o.ds might envy me. I should be able to have a lot of girls. The problem is that girls are very practical now…Ugh. I may say those I had a crush on were too practical. They simply refused to try when they thought I didn’t have a car, a house or money.”
Xia Ning mildly smiles. She takes a sip of the coffee.
Lei Buyang seems to remember something. He asks, “Ning, when you got married to Commander Yi, did you know everything about him? How did you two get to know each other?”
The question shocks Xia Ning.
They got married in a hurry. As to Yi Yunrui, she knew nothing except for his ident.i.ty of Army Commander of C military region.
As regarding how they got to know each other, … she hasn’t figured it out so far.
Xia Ning thinks for a while. Then, she responds, “Rui and I had a quickie marriage. Well. He said that he had known me long ago, but I couldn’t recall that.”
“Quickie marriage?” Lei Buyang strokes his head, “Who made the proposal?”
“…He did.”
Hearing this, Lei Buyang pats forcefully on the sofa, “I know it. That boy is clever! He had a crush on you at the first sight. Why didn’t I have the good luck? It is unfair. The G.o.d is unfair to us.”
Xia Ning smiles, “Mr. Lei, you are flattering me. It is nothing like that. It was just a coincidence.”
“Well. Ning, when we stay together again, can you not call me Mr. Lei? It sounds weird. You may call me Buyang, or Yang. It sounds better.”
Xia Ning nods, “OK.”
“Oh. Well. What happened in the small town was the 108th breaking up, and it was the 109th in the street just now! Does the G.o.d want me to break up 250 times before granting me the right one? G.o.d. I am going to be a Two-hundred-and-fifty, a stupid person.”
Xia Ning can’t help laughing again and puffs out the coffee. She puts down the coffee cup at once and takes over the tissues given by Lei Buyang. She hurriedly wipes her mouth and clothes, “Sorry. I am really sorry.”
“That is all right. Ah. It is lucky to meet Ning here. You don’t know. When I am in my company, everyone is serious with no emotions. I have to put on the tough face, too, just like a walking corpse. There are few people smiling truly to me as you do. If it is possible, I really want to stay with you for more time. It is really a pity that you are married. It is inconvenient to do so.”
“If Mr.… Yang has time, we can come out for coffee. Even though I am married, I can have my friends.”
Lei Buyang brightens his eyes, “Friends, right. Why I didn’t think about that. Hum. Ning and I are friends. We are friends for the whole life!”
Xia Ning smiles. She is going to respond, when suddenly she finds that Lei Bu Yang freezes his smile and looks at some direction blankly.
She feels a strong drop of chill come from behind. Xia Ning feels her whole body frozen. She follows Lei Buyang’s direction to look and sees Yi Yunrui’s deep eyes looking at her.
Xia Ning unconsciously feels shocked!
s.h.i.+t, how can Yi Yunrui find her here?
The tall and mighty body with overwhelming force attracts the attention of many customers in the coffee shop at once. Yi Yunrui’s handsome face looks grey. The chill given out from him seems to make the temperature around drop dramatically.
Xia Ning can’t help s.h.i.+vering.
Yi Yunrui moves his long leg, combining three steps into two and walks to Xia Ning. He directly sits down and stares at Lei Buyang with his eagle-sharp eyes. They have the eyes fighting in the air.
“Ugh!” Lei Buyang embarra.s.sedly makes a cough. He reluctantly puts on a smile and holds out his hand, “You must be Ning’s husband, Commander Yi. I am Lei Buyang. How do you do!”
Yi Yunrui holds out his hand to grab Lei Buyang’s. He shakes hands with Lei Buyang forcefully, “I am Yi Yunrui. How do you do.”
Lei Buyang feels his hand aching. He turns pale. The smile on his face looks weird, “I…I have heard a lot about you. It is nice to meet you here. Commander Yi is really mightily powerfully strong…”
“Is Mr. Lei also such a sweet talker to women?” Yi Yunrui interrupts in a cold voice.
Lei Buyang stops his speech and responds, “No. Nothing like that.”
Yi Yunrui blinks his eyes. He drops Lei Buyang’s hand and turns to Xia Ning. His eyes look really serious. He asks, “Sweetheart, have you finished here? Can you go home with me?”
Xia Ning realizes Yi Yunrui’s furious stare at her. Xia Ning feels as if she is inside a stove. Her heart is out of control and beats rapidly.
Her face turns red at once.
They stare at each other for a while. Xia Ning turns away her face and says in a low voice, “Did you read my message? I have some other things to do. I am going back to my office…”
“I will drive you there. How long do you need to work overtime? I can wait for you.” Yi Yunrui says decisively.
Xia Ning gives a sigh. Seemingly, Commander Yi has made up his mind to follow her anyway.
Xia Ning glances at Lei Buyang stealthily and sees Lei Buyang looking at her stealthily, too. Lei Buyang winks at her and shrugs his shoulders. Then, he shakes his head.
Xia Ning is just going to speak, while Lei Buyang says, “Commander Yi, I know nothing between you couple. However, I want to make it clear that Ning and I are just friends! The relation between us is just friends.h.i.+p. Commander Yi, please don’t take it wrong. It is a very natural thing for someone like Ning to have some male friends. Anyway, I really admire your eyesight. You chose the one from tens of thousands, the very one among the others…”
Hearing Lei Buyang’s words, Xia Ning feels embarra.s.sed. She feels cold in her heart. He is simply adding fuel to the flames!
“Sweetheart.” Yi Yunrui doesn’t care the talkative Lei Buyang at all. He has never moved his eyes from Xia Ning, “It is time for dinner. I am a little hungry. Shall we have dinner together?”
Xia Ning’s heart jumps. What Yi Yunrui is asking is absolutely reasonable. She turns to glance at Yi Yunrui and sees the expectation in his eyes. She doesn’t bear to refuse him.
Xia Ning collects herself and turns to Lei Buyang. She says seriously, “Mr. Lei, thank you for your time. It is late. I may go with my husband. Sorry.”
Lei Buyang waves his hand, “It is all right. Ning, you may go. Anyway, it is a long life. We have got plenty of chances to meet in the future.”
Have got plenty of chances to meet in the future…?
Yi Yunrui darkens his eyes and his face turns even greyer!
