Chapter 440 The Return of the Commander
Xia Ning finds that the man in front of her is stretching his hands. She knows what he wants to do. She feels scared and steps backward.
However, …
She has to protect the baby in her belly!
That is the baby of her and Yi Yunrui!
She can’t allow anyone to hurt it.
As if she is given a strong power, Xia Ning clenches her fists. When she sees the man throwing his fist to her, Xia Ning avoids it quickly. The scenes of Yi Yunrui teaching her to protect herself pop up in her brain. She lifts her knee and kicks forcefully towards the man’s crotch.
“Ouch!”
The man cries in pain. He bends his body and holds his crotch. He is so painful that he rolls on the ground.
When Xia Ning leans her body and kicks, everyone is shocked. They look at her in disbelief.
The woman looks weak and fragile. How can she suddenly hit down a strong man?
Xia Ning grits her teeth. She looks alertly at the men in front of her. If they come to her together, she is not confident that she can win.
Yi Yunrui taught her quite some self-protection tactics, each of which is efficiently powerful. However, she has never made use of any. This man is the first try of her.
“You attack the police!” Suddenly, someone cries.
They glance at each other. The speaker continues, “The woman is out of control. Let’s take her down at once!”
With the order, they wink at each other and run straight to Xia Ning.
These men are tall and strong. They look like wolves and tigers. Xia Ning steps back worriedly. If she is caught by them, it must be much more than being painful.
Xia Ning leans her back on the cold wall. She feels her heart sink all of a sudden. There is no way to go now!
Since she doesn’t have other ways to go, she may just go and fight back!
Thinking about this, Xia Ning bites her lower lip. Even if there will be more men to come, she has to protect her baby.
Suddenly, the men in front of her stop and are caught by something. Then, suddenly, they are forcefully thrown away.
“Ah!”
A cry in surprise is heard and then it bangs twice. Two strong men roll from the wall to the ground and fall in a coma…
Everyone is shocked to see the sudden accident. They turn to look.
“Does Director Tong teach you all these?”
A deep and magnetic voice is heard. It sounds as dignified as the god’s voice from the heaven. In the dark, there is a tall man standing. The mighty air around him tends to make everyone kneel as they will do to a King.
The voice is the most familiar one to Xia Ning!
She feels her heart jump. Xia Ning sobs. She covers her mouth at once to prevent herself from crying out.
The light is turned on. There are a lot of soldiers in the inquiry room. Yi Yunrui holds his hands and stands there, looking at the three policemen in front of him.
The men take a cold breath. They glance at the two unconscious companions and feel a chill inside their heart all of a sudden!
The man in an army uniform gets rid of two policemen by only one move. His sharp eyes look like a knife which seem to be able to cut their throat with a glimpse.
It is extremely tense.
“Who…who are you? This is the inquiry room of the police station. You don’t have the right to come in…”
“This is Commander Yi Yunrui of Military Region C. Don’t you salute to the commander?” Zhang Hai shouts at them behind. He winks at two soldiers beside him.
The policemen have not collected themselves when they have been drawn aside by the soldiers coming to them.
Yi Yunrui goes forward to his lovely wife. His sharp eyes become tender at once. He notices that his wife’s clothes are in a mess and she looks tired. He purses his lips into a line.
“Rui…Hum!” Xia Ning gently calls. She has not finished her words while Yi Yunrui has forcefully drawn her into his embrace and holds her tightly. He kisses her lips passionately.
The familiar warmth and fragrance from her body and her sweet calling…Yi Yunrui kisses his lovely wife. He frowns tightly. He feels his heart so painful as if it is twitched. The gentle kiss becomes a painful biting until he hears his wife groan. He lets go of her at once.
“Ning, sorry…I am late…” He tightly holds her again. From now on, he swears that he will never leave her again.
He will never ever leave her again!
The wide and thick chest and the warm embrace give Xia Ning the sense of security as they always do. She leans on Yi Yunrui’s chest and listens to his stable heartbeats. At this moment, Xia Ning realizes that she is safe. All the bitterness she suffered these days totally disappears at this second.
He is back. Finally, he is back…
“What’s wrong here?” Team Leader Li has just come into the room when he sees that there are many soldiers in the inquiry room while three of his policemen are lying on the ground and the other three are kneeling. He bursts into a fury. He shouts at the man who is tightly holding Xia Ning, “Who are you? Who allows you to do so?”
“He is…”
“You are Team Leader Li, aren’t you?” Yi Yunrui interrupts Zhang Hai and says in a cold voice.
Team Leader Li feels his heart tightened. The magnetic voice of the man sounds like a great pressure which makes it hard for him to breathe.
He has been the leader of the criminal investigation team for quite a long time and has met a lot of noble people. However, he has never had this feeling. When the masters fight against each other, it is easy to tell who wins. When Team Leader Li hears Yi Yunrui’s words, he immediately realizes that the man is not common!
“Yes. I am Team Leader Li. May I ask who you are, sir?”
“Yi Yunrui.” Yi Yunrui responds in a cold voice. He turns to Xia Ning, “I am Xia Ning’s husband.”
Team Leader Li widens his eyes. He has got the warrant of arresting from his superior for less than twenty-four hours. He was specially sent to deal with the case. He only knew that the criminal was Xia Ning. The time was too tight for him to do any detailed investigations. He only knew that the woman offended someone she should not enrage and needed to be got rid of as soon as possible.
However, to his surprise, the man in front of him is Xia Ning’s husband! Then, it is a tough case now.
“Team Leader Li, why do you put my wife under detention? Do you have any evidence?”
“We have evidence. But we need to make further investigation. However, I have got a warrant of arresting issued from the superior department and can carry out direct inquiry…”
“If the evidence is not convincing, who issued the warrant of arresting?”
Team Leader Li hesitates for a while, “It was issued by a superior leader. We only obey the orders.”
“Show me the warrant of arresting.”
Team Leader Li wants to refuse. At the time, Zhang Hai comes up and holds out his hand, “Team Leader Li, our commander will not repeat his words. Please cooperate with us!”
Commander?
Team Leader Li feels shocked. Then, he passes the warrant of arresting to Zhang Hai.
Zhang Hai takes it over and politely gives it to Yi Yunrui.
When Yi Yunrui sees the signature on the warrant of arresting, he smiles dismissively. He crumples it into a ball and drops it to the ground, “From when can people of the military department act beyond their authority? I have never received any documents on this issue. The warrant of arresting is invalid! Team Leader Li, I will take my wife with me. If anything happens, you may tell Director Tong to meet me in person!”
Team Leader Li feels shocked. Is the warrant of arresting really invalid because the man says so? He even wants to take the criminal away. He is totally ignoring the police office!
“No way!” Team Leader Li holds out his hand to stop Yi Yunrui. He says in a loud voice, “Commander, I don’t know how superior your identity is. However, I don’t think that the army should interfere in the cases that the police office deals with. Unless there are orders from the superior department, since Xia Ning is the most possible suspect, before she is clear, you are not allowed to take her away!”
Yi Yunrui’s eyes gleam sharply, “The army can’t interfere in the case? Team Leader Li, you may read carefully the signature on the warrant of arresting. This is an action seriously violating the laws and regulations! And, who permits you to have this inquiry with the use of violence in private? You used violence to a so-called suspect when you still hadn’t got convincing evidence! Who gives you this right?”
Hearing Yi Yunrui’s questions, Team Leader Li is speechless. He hesitates for quite a while and then says, “Commander, anyway, Xia Ning is not clear yet from suspicions…”
“Good.” Yi Yunrui responds coldly, “Tell Director Tong that I take her away! If he has any problems, tell him to meet Yi Yunrui in Military Region C!”
Then, Yi Yunrui holds Xia Ning and walks directly out of the inquiry room.
Team Leader Li feels shocked. He wants to go after him while the soldiers surround to stop him. Seemingly, it is impossible for him to get away from them.
Team Leader Li sees that Yi Yunrui go away. He takes out his phone and dials Director Tong’s phone in a hurry.
“Director Tong, Xia Ning is taken away by his husband Yi Yunrui. I failed to stop him. Yi Yunrui said that you might go to Military Region C to meet him if you wanted to get Xia Ning here …”
“What? You took Mrs. Yi to the police office?”
Not waiting for Team Leader Li to finish his words, Director Tong cries angrily at the other end of the phone, “Fuck. Why didn’t I know anything about that? Who gave you the right to arrest the wife of a superior commander?”
Team Leader Li feels confused that Director Tong shouts at him, “I received the warrant of arresting. It was signed by Vice-chief of Staff Mei.”
“Fuck. Vice-chief of Staff Mei is from the Military Department! He doesn’t have the right to sign a warrant of arresting! Fuck. Do they think the Director of the police office in C City is a puppet? Team Leader Li, tell me honestly, how long did you keep Xia Ning in the police station?”
Team Leader Li thinks for a little while, “It might be around twenty-four hours.”
“You!” Director Tong is so angry that he can hardly speak. He says, “Didn’t I just leave for a business trip? How can you create such a big trouble for me? You bastard don’t know who Commander Yi is, do you? You have got the guts to offend him!”
Xia Ning is held tightly by Yi Yunrui all the way home. He hugs her so forcefully as if he wants to press her into his body and she can hardly breathe. The hands holding her tremble as if they are struggling to keep themselves under control.
Xia Ning leans on Yi Yunrui’s chest. She wants to speak, but she obviously realizes that Yi Yunrui’s face is grey with anger. His breaths are abnormal and he frowns tightly that his eyebrows almost become a line.
“Darling…” She gently cries. She holds out her fingers, trying to flatten his eyebrows. She looks at his expression and feels heartache.
She has just put her fingers on his eyebrows while Yi Yunrui catches her hand and holds it tightly. He takes a deep breath, “Ning, sorry. I am really sorry. If I had come back a little earlier, you wouldn’t have suffered so much.”
When he entered the inquiry room, he was so furious that he had the urge to kill all the policemen there! Ning is his most cherished precious. He even feels afraid that she may melt when he holds her in his hand. How dare those men…
He doesn’t dare to imagine. If he was a little later, what would happen…
