Chapter 268 Hit from the Sides (2/2)

Her heart is tightened for a night, too.

Seemingly, if Commander Yi fails to control himself, she must need to ask for another leave of days.

On the fourth day morning, she is woken up by Commander Yi.

Then she remembers that Commander Yi announced that he would send her to work and pick her up after work from then now. He would be her exclusive bodyguard.

Xia Ning looks at the breakfast of all kinds of styles and Yi Yunrui, who wears an army uniform. She feels that she is enjoying a treatment for a queen.

So, she dares not make any delay.

She brushes her teeth and does the washing and dressing quickly. Then, she rushes to the table to eat fast.

“Don’t worry. We still have time.” Compared with Xia Ning’s “can’t wait”, Yi Yunrui is much easier. He sits there and reads the newspaper quietly.

“I have got plenty of time. What are you?” Xia Ning lifts to ask.

Yi Yunrui turns the paper to another page, “Me, too. You take it easy. Don’t get yourself choked.”

Xia Ning hesitates. She feels Yi Yunrui kind of strange. She lowers her head to continue with her breakfast.

Xia Ning drinks a bowl of soya-bean milk and has some bread. Then they go downstairs. Zhang Hai is standing at the gate of the military compound. He looks quite nervous.

“Commander, Mrs. Yi, good morning.” Zhang Hai salutes.

Yi Yunrui nods and holds Xia Ning to get in the car. On the way, Yi Yunrui doesn’t speak. Zhang Hai seems to drive much faster than usual.

Xia Ning instinctively feels something unusual.

“It seems that the car goes… faster than usual.” Xia Ning tentatively says.

Yi Yunrui pauses. He tells Zhang Hai, “Drive stably.”

“Yes, Sir!” Zhang Hai responds loudly. He feels a little helpless.

There is a half-monthly meeting today. All the commanders are already there waiting for Yi Yunrui for the meeting.

Zhang Hai glances at the time. It is already twenty minutes late.

He really can’t imagine that the punctual commander can spoil his wife to this stage.

He even told Zhang Hai to drive slowly just now…

“Ah. I don’t mean that.” Xia Ning waves her hand, “I just want to ask whether there is anything urgent.”

“No.” Yi Yunrui responds decisively.

Yi Yunrui doesn’t speak and Xia Ning says nothing. They quietly sit on the seats.

When Xia Ning arrives at the Media Building and gets off. Yi Yunrui says to her, “I will come to pick you up in the evening.”

Xia Ning wants to say something. However, she remembers that Yi Yunrui is stubborn. So, she swallows the words and nods.

Yi Yunrui sees his wife going into the Media Building. Then, he says, “Go back to the military region at once.”

“Yes, Sir!” Zhang Hai gets the order. He is excited and presses the accelerator forcefully. The car roars away.

Xia Ning sees Knight XV rushing away like a satellite. She feels shocked.

Obviously, there is something urgent!

Xia Ning goes back to the company. She is just going into her office when Li Baoer comes to give her a hug.

“Ah, my lady, you finally come back!”

Xia Ning is hugged in public. She twitches her lips and makes a cough, “Miss Li, do you need to be so passionate?”

“My boss is back. I surely need to show a warm welcome!” Li Baoer responds with certainty. She pats forcefully on Xia Ning’s back.

Xia Ning is almost hurt. She rolls her eyes at Li Baoer, “How are you these days? Are there any problems at work?”

Li Baoer shakes her head, “There is surely nothing serious. Thank you for your appreciation, Director Xia. I will really work hard to do well, even if I may risk my life …”

“That’s enough!” Xia Ning interrupts, “If you risk your life, Colonel Dai will come to me. What should I do?”

When Dai Zhongheng is mentioned, Li Baoer feels her heart softened. She sweetly smiles, “I am just kidding.”

“Well, did you go to see Zhenzhen recently?”

“Oh. That girl stays at my home these days. She is smart and obedient. She even knows how to cook. God! I really have never met such an obedient child. If only Zhongheng and I can have such a kid.” Li Baoer says with expectation. However, she neglects the uneasy expression on Xia Ning’s face.
