Chapter 225 Threat
“Supervisor Li, we will meet again in the future. Why do you have to speak in this way? It is not funny.”
Li Shi sneers, “You also know that we will meet again, don’t you? Then, why does Director Xia do it so cruelly?”
Xia Ning slightly frowns. She says seriously, “Sorry, I have made the decision. Yes, I will call the Director in W City directly…”
“Director Gu said that already.” Li Shi impolitely interrupts, “Director Xia doesn’t need to make the introduction. I know what to do.”
“Since Supervisor Li knows what to do, I think it meaningless for us to meet before getting off work.”
“Hehe.” Li Shi looks at Xia Ning dismissively. She says word by word, “Xia Ning, you really don’t know how to get along with others.”
“Oh? Why do you say so?” Xia Ning brightens her eyes. She leans on the sofa, “Can Supervisor Li speak it clearly?”
“Xia Ning, I think we should talk about that in private. After all, you have a guest here. I don’t want to humiliate you.”
Xia Ning glances at Yi Yunrui. Yi Yunrui doesn’t even lift his head. He concentrates on reading the recipes as if Li Shi and Xia Ning weren’t there.
“It is all right. This handsome guy is very easy-going. You may speak frankly.”
Li Shi looks at Yi Yunrui. When she sees his white clothes, her heart suddenly jumps! She feels something hit directly on her heart as if on a lake to cause continuous waves.
She feels her heart beating rapidly and her face a little hot.
In an instant, she is almost lost in admiration.
Xia Ning is aware of Li Shi’s wanton eyes. She feels very displeased. She says seriously, “Li Shi, we are talking about business! Where are your manners?”
Li Shi is shocked. She draws back her eyes. She scolds Xia Ning secretly and then she speaks, “That is simple. Director Gu has implied for many times. I believe that Director Gu also told you that someone in the Justice Bureau called in. Director Gu met me just now. He said that it is inconvenient for him to interfere on either side. That is obvious. The Director wanted you to change your mind. If you still insist in your decision, Director Xia, you will offend both Director Gu and someone in the bureau.”
Xia Ning slightly widens her eyes. Will she offend Gu Luan and someone in the bureau?
She doesn’t think so. Just now, Gu Luan said that Li Shi was not going to stay. As to what Gu Luan meant, she understand it more clearly.
“It seems that Supervisor Li really has a good luck. You have so many people supporting you. Why are you contented to be an insignificant supervisor in World Era Weekly? I believe my decision may be a good development opportunity for Supervisor Li. At least, you don’t need to be trapped in the Journalists Section.”
Li Shi is speechless to hear what Xia Ning says. In an instant, Li Shi stares at Xia Ning blankly. She wishes she can tear Xia Ning into pieces.
Yes, she has someone over there. But if she is not the supervisor of Journalist Section, she doesn’t have many opportunities to contact with high officials. She was born in a family which is not rich. To marry a rich, tall and handsome man is her ultimate aim. So, she tries her best to climb upwards and she struggles her life to find someone to rely on in the future.
It is not easy for her to gain the opportunity to work in World Era Weekly. It is not easy for her to become the supervisor of the Journalist Section. It is also not easy for her to find some “candidates” for her future. When she is planning to fight for her aim, Xia Ning gives her the hit!
She is not resigned to that.
Xia Ning has always been a low-key person. In the past, whenever faced with conflicts, Xia Ning always takes the negative way. Li Shi didn’t expect that Xia Ning would play her tough move on her first!
She knew people here were all capable. It is said that Xia Ning has a strong background. She thinks it again and again. Even if Xia Ning has the strongest background, she is in C City. It is impossible for her not to be afraid of the Justice Bureau!
But the truth shocks her!
“Xia Ning, you want me to go. I will go. You don’t need to satirize me! I know you are capable. I know you don’t need to mind my mood. But I want to tell you. Once I leave, you will get more troubles in C City! One day, you will initiatively ask me to come back.”
“Really? There are troubles every day. I am not afraid. We are reporters. What we want is this kind of troubles. Li Shi, I think we should stop here. It is time to get off.”
Li Shi bites her bottom lip, “Xia Ning, I know you always want to kick me away. Well. You got me this time. I am resigned to it! But I warn you. If I really leave, I won’t take any responsibility for anything that may happen.”
“Miss Li, may I regard what you said as a threat to my wife?”
Not waiting for Xia Ning to respond, a deep but overwhelming voice is heard. The two discussing women are both shocked all of a sudden.
Not expecting the unbelievably handsome man will speak, Li Shi is stunned. She turns her head and sees his eagle-sharp eyes which seem to look through her soul. Unconsciously, she feels a sense of chill rushing from her toe towards her head!
The man gives out some force which is so strong that it can simply stop the time!
Li Shi twitches her lips and realizes the key point in the man’s words!
Xia Ning is his wife!
God.
Li Shi cries in her heart. What she wants to have is a man like him! This is the very man she wants most to marry!
“No, I just told the truth.” Li Shi curls her lips and lifts her foot.
Yi Yunrui puts the recipes book back in his pocket of the coat. He sees that Xia Ning want to speak. He slightly lifts his hand and hints at her not speaking.
“Miss Li, you should know what is called troubles caused by speeches. Based on what you say, I have to be responsible for my wife’s safety. That is, I can regard what you said as a threat and report to the police station.”
“Haha, are you scaring me? It is just some words. Many people speak. Why do you only call me to account for that? In addition, do you have any evidence?”
“How do you know I don’t have evidence?” Yi Yunrui asks back. Then, before Li Shi speaks again, he points aside, “You have someone in the Justice Bureau, don’t you? Well, I know. It is off time. I am here to pick up my wife. Miss Li, can you leave now?”
What Yi Yunrui says makes Li Shi stuck. In an instant, Li Shi can’t find any reasons to talk back!
The man doesn’t give much information, but every word he speaks is like an ice thorn which sticks into the listener’s heart. She can’t help shivering!
She doesn’t know anything about this man, but instinctively she feels this man is horrible. He is not someone that she can offend.
Li Shi grits her teeth and turns her face away. She tries her best to restrain her trembling hands. She sneers, “You couple unit to make the advantage, don’t you? Well, I will wait to see how capable Xia Ning is!”
Then, Li Shi stands up furiously. She walks forcefully in her high heel shoes and goes away.
Once Li Shi leaves, Xia Ning rolls her eyes. She gives a sigh, “I know she is capable, but I don’t expect her to be so unreasonable. I really want to give her two slaps just now.”
Yi Yunrui blinks his eyes, “Then, why not?”
Xia Ning pauses. She looks at Yi Yunrui confusedly, “Is that necessary? She only spoke too much.”
“If I were you, I would have done that.” Yi Yunrui takes out his phone. He writes on the screen, “My soldiers never dare to speak anything irrational in front of me.”
“You are an army man. It is different. We can’t use violence here. Instead we should talk.”
“Hum. Not to use violence, but still we need to take actions.” Yi Yunrui stops his fingers and puts the phone back, “Sweetheart, you are off. What do you want to have for dinner?”
Xia Ning thinks for a while, “The food I want to have is hard to prepare.”
“It is all right. As long as you like I will make it.”
Xia Ning slightly leans forward. She eyes Yi Yunrui’s face and his body shape, “I want to have a candlelight dinner.”
Yi Yunrui softens his eyes and slightly lifts his thin lips, putting on a charming smile, “That’s what I want to have.”
One hour later, Xia Ning sits by the table at home. There is a steak cut into a heart shape. There are also other dishes. They don’t turn on the lamps. Three big candles give out light. It is sweet and romantic.
Xia Ning looks at the unbelievably handsome man in front of her. She feels her heartbeat rapidly and her face turns red.
Yi Yunrui takes up the glass and puts it forward, “Good wine for petty woman. Sweetheart, Cheers.”
Xia Ning lifts the glass, “Cheers.”
They have dinner while chatting. The steaks and wine are not the purpose, while getting together with each other is.
The dinner takes them quite some time. When Yi Yunrui takes the dishes to wash, Xia Ning realizes that it is already nine.
Wow. How time flies. It seems that they haven’t talked much, but they have spent truly two hours on the dinner!
Yi Yunrui finished the washing. He wipes his hands and comes out. Xia Ning pats on the sofa, “Darling, I want to ask you for suggestions on something.”
“Oh?” Yi Yunrui brightens his eyes, “My clever wife wants to ask me for suggestions? It is the first time.”
Saying this, Yi Yunrui sits down by Xia Ning. He reaches his hand to hold his wife into his embrace and gives her a forceful kiss. Then, he asks, “Is that about your work?”
Xia Ning feels the warmth of the kiss on her face. She blushes. She leans on Yi Yunrui’s wide and strong chest and nods.
“If it is about Li Shi, Sweetheart, don’t worry. You can do as you like. That woman won’t become a threat to you.”
Xia Ning blinks her eyes. She looks at Yi Yunrui confusedly, “According to what Li Shi just said, she seems to have something to do with someone in the Justice Bureau.”
“Hum. It is Deputy Director An of the Justice Bureau.” Yi Yunrui responds frankly, “She is one of Deputy Director An’s lovers.”
Hearing this, Xia Ning widens her eyes. That is why. It is unsurprising that Li Shi sounds so arrogant!
“Wait. I am going to kick Deputy Director An’s lover away. Will Deputy Director An be displeased?”
Yi Yunrui smiles. He touches her nose, “You Fool, what you do may make him feel a little embarrassed. However, it is what he wants.”
Xia Ning is just going to speak when Yi Yunrui’s phone rings. Yi Yunrui glances at the number. It is from the guard room downstairs.
The guard calls. May there be someone coming?
