Chapter 321 The Last Warning (1/2)
Thinking about this, Xia Ning calls Zhang Hai. Soon, Zhang Hai answers the phone.
“Mrs. Yi.”
“Zhang Hai, are you with Rui now?”
Zhang Hai thinks for a while, “Mrs. Yi, Commander Yi is having a meeting. It is a little inconvenient…”
“Hum. I am not looking for him. I want to talk with you.”
Zhang Hai feels confused, “Mrs. Yi, what are you calling me for?”
“Is it convenient for you there? Can you send messages? Oh. I mean. Can you send messages to Rui?”
“Mrs. Yi, what’s the matter? You may tell me. I will tell Commander Yi.”
Hearing this, Xia Ning’s eyes brighten!
By the way, if it is an investigation, as the correspondent of Yi Yunrui, Zhang Hai won’t get away from it. Now, Zhang Hai can send messages for her. That means the problem is not as bad as that she imagined.
“Please help tell Rui that I was busy at noon today, so I had fast food for lunch. I had a lot of seafood in the evening. It was cooked by Baoer. She came with Colonel Dai. Then.” Xia Ning thinks for a while, “I am thinking of having sushi at noon and steaks in the evening tomorrow. Okay. These are all. Well. Can you send photos? I want to show the photos of my eating to Rui.”
Zhang Hai feels surprised. Are these all?
“Yes. I can. Mrs. Yi, are these all?”
“Yeah. I may hang up. Baoer and Colonel Dai are carrying a big grouper here. Thank you, Zhang Hai.”
Then, Xia Ning hangs up the phone.
Zhang Hai stands confusedly there. One minute later, he receives the photos from Xia Ning.
Mrs. Yi…really eats well.
“OK. We can eat now.” Xia Ning puts down the phone and gives an OK gesture.
“Ha. Ha. Your commander will be drooling when he sees the photo.” Li Baoer laughs and says. She suddenly finds that she has said something carelessly. Then she says at once, “Ning, I…”
“Yes. I just want to make him drool.” Xia Ning naughtily blinks her eyes, “How can he stay in Beijing for such a long time! Hum.”
Li Baoer understands at once. She nods, “Yes. Make him drool. Make him come back soon.”
It is in the headquarters of the Army Commanders Department.
Yi Yunrui looks at the photos on Zhang Hai’s phone. He smiles. Even a fool can notice the tenderness in his eyes.
“Commander, Mrs. Yi told me to tell you that she is going to have sushi at noon and steak in the evening tomorrow.” Zhang Hai reports while standing aside.
He feels surprised. Normally speaking, the commander is in trouble here. Mrs. Yi should be very worried at home. However, it seems that she is even happier than before, while Commander Yi smiles like a fool when he looks at the photos, as if he has been given some great blessings.
Ah. Love is something hard to be understood. He really can’t understand it.
“Good.” Yi Yunrui nods, “Zhang Hai, send an oral message for me. Tell Mrs. Yi that what she ate is not good enough. She is allowed to have something luxurious and expensive when I am away. Or, when I go back, she won’t have the chance for that.”
Zhang Hai twitches his lips, “Yes, Commander!”
At the time, someone knocks at the door. The soldier standing outside reports, “Commander, Colonel Mei is here.”
The smile on Yi Yunrui’s face disappears. He returns to be cold. He passes the phone back to Zhang Hai.
Zhang Hai takes back his phone at once. He goes to the door and opens it.
“Commander Mei!”
“Yeah. I come to see Commander Yi.”
Zhang Hai salutes and goes out.
Mei Ruo looks at Yi Yunrui. She stops her eyes at the vacuum cup in his hand. It is water inside.
Mei Ruo feels her heart ache. She walks towards Yi Yunrui and puts something in her hand on the desk, “This is cappuccino. Do you want me to make a cup of it for you?”
“No need.” Yi Yunrui stops Mei Ruo’s hand. He pushes the cappuccino a little away, “Colonel Mei, you may take it back. This is not allowed.”
“I have got rid of the guards outside. It is fine.” Mei Ruo takes out a bag of coffee. She is going to make coffee.
“I only drink coffee prepared by Ning.”
The phrase is simple. He speaks in a stable voice with no waves. However, Mei Ruo feels it like a fist punching forcefully at her heart.
Mei Ruo pauses. She holds the coffee bag tightly, “She is in C City now.”
“I know. So, I won’t drink any coffee.”
Yi Yunrui tells his opinion very clearly. Mei Ruo grits her teeth, “Yi Yunrui, I was outside. I heard what Zhang Hai said just now. You are in trouble now. She can’t help you. That is OK. But she told Zhang Hai to tell you that she had a happier life! That is her. I really don’t understand what on earth you like her for?”
“I don’t like her.”
Mei Ruo’s eyes brighten. She feels a flame of hope going up from somewhere in her heart.
Yi Yunrui lowers his eyes. He drinks a mouthful of water. He says word by word, “I love her, now and forever.”
In an instant, as if she is dropped down to the bottom of the hell, Mei Ruo’s spirit shakes. She takes a step backwards.
“Colonel Mei, if you don’t feel well. You may leave now.”
“Are you kicking me away?” Mei Ruo cocks her head, “You are trapped here to suffer endless questioning and inquiry, while she is happy outside, eating well and having fun! Don’t you understand what she means? Don’t you see it clearly till now?”
Yi Yunrui puts down the vacuum cup. He lifts to stare at Mei Ruo. His eyes are as sharp as those of an eagle. It seems that they see through the soul of Mei Ruo. He says, “She is Ning. Whatever she does is acceptable to me. However, I do have a puzzle. How does Ning know about the real reason for my being in Beijing?”
