Chapter 214 How Can I Make it Up to You
Luo Zhen brightens his eyes when hearing the word “single”.
“Brother…that beauty is really single?”
“Hum.” Yi Yunrui smiles to pat him on the shoulder. He smiles meaningfully, “Catch the chance!”
Then, Yi Yunrui goes back to his seat, leaving Luo Zhen in exciting meditation.
Zhou Wenping is talking with Xia Ning, while Yi Yunrui sits beside with a smile. Luo Zhen finally puts his emotions in order. However, his big black eyes keep glancing at Zhou Wenping.
It is so obvious in Luo Zhen’s expression that even a fool can tell he has a crush on Zhou Wenping. Zhou Wenping herself makes a light cough, “Commander Yi, as you mentioned, Commander Luo was your subordinate. Is he working in C Military Region?”
“No. He was transferred to W Military Region. He is here for some missions. He will stay here for some time.”
“Oh. I see.” Zhou Wenping glances at Luo Zhen, who is looking at her. Unexpectedly, Luo Zhen, the big man blushes all of a sudden and lowers his head.
“Miss Zhou.” Yi Yunrui says, “Luo Zhen and I are brothers from life-defending battles. He looks ingenuous and honest, but he has never got a comparable rival in his battle commanding techniques. Many female soldiers adore him. However, he is not sensitive enough in romance to see women’s adoration for him. He is twenty-seven years old, but still single.”
“Is he?” Zhou Wenping glances at Luo Zhen again, “How can a real man get no wife? Someone like Commander Luo will surely marry a good wife. Maybe it is just not the right time…”
“It is. It is.” Not waiting for Zhou Wenping to finish her words, Luo Zhen foolishly speaks out the words. He is kicked by Yi Yunrui again and feels so painful that he twitches his mouth.
Zhou Wenping feels funny. She talks with them for another while before she goes to other booths to greet the guests.
“Brother, don’t kick me again and again. It is painful.” Luo Zhen says bitterly.
Xia Ning can’t help bursting into laughter.
Yi Yunrui shakes his head, “Boy, can you watch yourself a little bit? You may scare her!”
Luo Zhen blinks his big eyes. He strokes his head thoughtfully, “Oh. Yes. Yes.”
In the afternoon, Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning drive Luo Zhen around the downtown of C City. They buy a lot of daily use stuff for Luo Zhen. Luo Zhen doesn’t want Yi Yunrui to take him to supper. He goes back to the hotel directly with the things.
Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning have a big dinner of seafood before they go back to the military compound.
It is past eight in the evening. The moon is bright in the sky with a few stars. They lie on the warm water and feel relaxed.
Yi Yunrui uses a towel to rub Xia Ning’s back. He asks gently, “Sweetheart, is the force suitable? Does it hurt?”
Xia Ning smiles, “The great Army Commander helps her wife rub the back. Your soldiers will laugh at you if they know.”
“Laugh at me? They will only envy me!” Yi Yunrui rubs her back for a while and puts down the towel. He holds Xia Ning tightly in his embrace. He closes his eyes to enjoy the great moment quietly.
After quite a while, Xia Ning feels the water a little cooler. She says, “Darling, the water is getting cool. Let’s finish the bath and go to bed.”
Yi Yunrui opens his eyes. He stands up and takes a big towel to tightly wrap Xia Ning. Then, he takes her and walks to the bedroom.
Yi Yunrui puts down his wife and turns on the warmer. He gently wipes Xia Ning’s body.
“Sweetheart…why don’t…we have a baby?”
Xia Ning is shocked to hear that.
Yi Yunrui looks at Xia Ning. He at once continues, “I am just kidding. We may have a baby whenever you want to. It doesn’t matter, as long as you are happy.”
Xia Ning softens her eyes. She understands what Yi Yunrui means.
He likes babies, so does she.
In addition, she is almost thirty years old. It is time to think about the baby issue.
“Babies are really cute.”
Hearing this, Yi Yunrui brightens his eyes. But he returns to normal very soon, “Sweetheart, shall we make an agreement?”
“Hum. Tell me more.”
“We set an observation period of three months for me. If I behave well in the period, we will plan to have a baby. OK?”
Xia Ning looks at Yi Yunrui quietly without any responses.
“If three-month time is too short, then, let’s make it four mouths, five?”
Xia Ning gives a light sigh, “Let nature take its course.”
Let nature take its course…?
Yi Yunrui thinks for a while. It all clicks. He understands completely what his wife means!
At the moment, he is so happy that he holds Xia Ning and gives her a lot of kisses, “Sweetheart, thank you. Thank you…”
After they have a baby, he will keep his wife staying with him more stably!
Xia Ning blushes. She stops him with her hand, “You have not dried the water on your body. It is wet. Go to get dry.”
“OK.” Yi Yunrui takes over the towel and wipes himself.
Yi Yunrui has a perfect body shape. Xia Ning feels shy to look at him. She takes a deep breath and turns her face, “Darling, you drew Colonel Luo aside today. What did you say to him?”
“I told him that Zhou Wenping was still single and he should catch the chance.”
Xia Ning is so surprised that she opens her mouth, “You…Wait. Aren’t you very familiar with Miss Zhou?”
Hearing this, Yi Yunrui darkens his face. He drops the towel aside and goes to the bed to hold Xia Ning, “That’s silly. What are you saying! What do you mean by I am familiar with her? Who tells you that?”
Xia Ning blinks her eyes. The previous scene in the bar pops up in her brain.
Yi Yunrui touches her nose, “Actually, Miss Zhou is an intelligence agent. Last time, I met her in the bar to gather information. It was arranged by my supervisor.”
Xia Ning is surprised to hear that.
“Well, then, Miss Zhou is an agent!”
Yi Yunrui nods, “She runs the restaurant Yijunxuan to gather information. Sweetheart, it is just between you and me. Don’t tell other people.”
“Hum. I know. I won’t tell others.” God. Zhou Wenping has such an identity!
That’s not surprising Zhou Wenping said that she and Yi Yunrui were “peers”!
If Zhou Wenping is really an agent, all the conversations and special behaviors between her and Yi Yunrui become explainable.
“So, Sweetheart, if we encounter something alike in the future, don’t take it wrong. If it is permitted, I will find the chance to explain it to you.”
“Then, is what you said just now permitted by your supervisor?”
Yi Yunrui holds her hand and leans to her ear, “No. It is not permitted. I am violating the regulations. However, I can be a little selfish myself.”
Xia Ning is shocked. She covers Yi Yunrui’s mouth, “Darling, I see. Sorry…”
“You Silly, there is no need to say sorry. You are my wife. Nothing can be comparable to you. You are my highest supervisor.”
Xia Ning smiles, “When do you become a sweet talker?”
Yi Yunrui strokes her hairs, “I was scared and did. If you are missing again, I will even have an exhausted heart. Well, Sweetheart, do you decide to go back to work?”
Xia Ning leans on his chest and hears his stable heartbeat. She gently responds, “Baoer is right. People tend to become lazy if they don’t work. And I love my work in the weekly. Darling, do you agree to that?”
Yi Yunrui shakes his head, “No objection. You can do whatever you want. I will always back you behind. When are you going to work?”
“Soon, I will call Director Gu to check his arrangement.”
“Hum.” Yi Yunrui looks at Xia Ning tenderly, “Sweetheart, shall we marry again?”
“Ah?” Marry again?
“I have been with you for over two years. But I haven’t given you a big wedding. Marriage is the most important thing for a woman. I want to give us a wedding ceremony.”
Xia Ning feels sweet, “It has been over two years. Do you think it necessary?”
“Yes.” Yi Yunrui responds decisively, “Two years ago, you were wronged. Now, by any means, I have to make it up to you and give you a big wedding ceremony.” Yi Yunrui finds Xia Ning wants to speak. He touches her lips, “I have made the decision. The wedding ceremony will be held in a month. OK?”
Seeing the determination in Yi Yunrui’s eyes, Xia Ning knows that she can’t stop him. And she really wants to put on the wedding dress and walk into the cathedral with Yi Yunrui in the blessing of everyone…
Xia Ning blushes. She holds Yi Yunrui in response and sweetly says, “OK.”
Out of the window, the moon is bright in the sky with a few stars. The wind blows. The husband and the wife in the house embrace each other in love…
The next day, Xia Ning calls Gu Luan. Xia Ning has not spoken a word, while Gu Luan happily says, “Director Xia, you are finally coming back! Ah. Director Xia, Miss Xia, the company can’t lose you. Come back now! You don’t come back soon and you are going to find me in the hospital.”
Hearing Gu Luan’s begging, Xia Ning smiles, “Director Gu is kidding. With your capability, it has no influence on you at all to lose a director of entertainment…”
“Who tells you that?” Gu Luan interrupts seriously, “Ning, to be honest, the entertainment department is the most complicated department. The stars are all arrogant. Recently, I was forced to drink a lot of wine. If I had not been clever, I would have been in the hospital. I mean, we can’t do without you in the entertainment department. We can’t do that. Well, Miss Xia, when are you coming back?”
“Director Gu, seriously?”
“I am not lying. You may check with Ruoruo. She has been waiting for you to come back. She had a tough time here with me. She even showed me a hard look. Haha. I almost lose my authority as her brother. Well, Ning, I will not deduct your salary for the absent time. You may take that as your annual holiday. As long as you come back, salary raising is open for discussion.”
Xia Ning is shocked to hear this. She was absent for half a month for no reason, but she is going to have her salary raised after going back!
Does she mishear?
“Hey, Ning, are you listening?”
“Oh, Yes. I am listening.”
“Then, when are you coming back?”
Xia Ning curls her lips. Gu Luan gives an attractive offer. If she declines, that is unkind.
