Chapter 560 A Misunderstanding
Her husband, who leads thousands of troops, is a man among all men. He is sincerely apologizing to her. Xia Ning’s heart softens. Most of her doubts and suspicions disappear.
In fact, there are a lot of women who pester Yi Yunrui. Sometimes it’s hard to tell who is messing with who.
Just like An Lingxi. Probably Yi Yunrui ran into her by chance.
She is clear about Yi Yunrui’s love for her. They have been married for years. As his wife, she should have taken care of all the family affairs. But for so many years, he has done it for her.
Yi Yunrui could have just left the housework behind. There is no need. She knows that her husband is so good that there are always women getting close to him.
He really cares about her.
Xia Ning purses her lips and heaves a sigh of relief. She holds Yi Yunrui’s hand instead, “I should apologize. I shouldn’t think nonsense.”
“Good thing for me.” Yi Yunrui puts his head on her hair, sniffing the faint fragrance, “It proves that my wife still cares about me.”
In the eyes of other men, women being paranoid is generally characterized as ridiculousness and nonsense. But when you think about it deeply, if your wife doesn’t do it, it proves that she doesn’t care about you anymore.
He wants her to be more paranoid and stingier.
Yi Yunrui’s heartbeat is strong and steady. She hears no clutter in the slightest. From this point of view, he did not lie to her. Lies always leave clues. The heartbeat is the most difficult thing to control.
“Really? I’ll mess up with you every day, and see if you will say that again!”
“I know exactly what my wife is. I’m not worried.” Xia Ning has been a nice girl for twenty years.
In this world, apart from Xia Ning’s parents, he knows her best.
Her innocence and kindness are both her strengths and weaknesses. She can be easily used by others, so he has to be very careful.
In this world, only he can “bully” her.
Xia Ning had an early dinner. Yi Yunrui makes her some snacks at night after they got home. While Xia Ning is having them, Yi Yunrui is taking a shower in the bathroom.
Xia Ning blinks, muttering what Lei Buyang said in her heart.
She believes in his husband, but she has to ask Lei Buyang to elaborate!
Walking to the balcony, Xia Ning closes the floor-to-ceiling glass door and dials Lei Buyang’s number.
“Mrs. Xia, it’s late. Did you have a fight with your husband? Wanna some comfort?”
Xia Ning’s brows twitch, “I don’t have much time. I have a few questions for you. Be honest with me.”
“Oh? If you ask me if I have ever loved you, the answer is yes. If you want to know if I want to beat your husband up, my answer is the same!”
“Now I want to beat you up! My answer is also surely yes.”
“...Ahem, ha-ha, Mrs. Xia, I’m just joking. Don’t take it seriously. Go ahead. What do you want to know?”
“Have you seen that woman?”
“Uh? Who?” Lei Buyang didn’t get it.
“Didn’t you tell me to keep an eye on my husband? You must have seen that woman. Tell me, what is she like?”
Lei Buyang hesitated for a while, “Mrs. Xia, it’s just a heads up. I’m not sure. I can’t answer your question.”
“You can’t answer?” Xia Ning’s tone sinks, “I’m pregnant with mood swings. I have no idea what I’m going to do. I heard that Project Yu Di Long Tu recently went wrong... ”
“Ahem... Mrs. Xia, don’t make fun of this, okay?”
“I count three. One.”
“Ning, it’s just a heads up.”
“Two…”
“Ning, could you please stop asking?”
“Three!”
“Alright, alright, I tell you! Don’t be angry with me.”
“Cut it out. Just say it!”
After a moment’s silence, Lei Buyang says cautiously, “She was beautiful, over 1.7 meters tall. It seems that she came from abroad. But in my heart, she was definitely not as pretty as you...”
Over 1.7 meters tall? Beautiful?
Xia Ning rolls her eyes. A person appears in her mind, “How many times have you seen them together?”
“Not together. I’ve only met them twice. Once in the market and once in the hospital.”
Speaking of which, Xia Ning understands everything!
It was An Lingxi!
It turns out that Lei Buyang is talking about the same person with her!
She estimates that Yi Yunrui is about to get out of the shower. So, Xia Ning says quickly, “I see. Talk to you later. Good night.”
Before Lei Buyang can say anything, Xia Ning hangs up the phone.
It’s quiet in the hall. Yi Yunrui is still in the bathroom. Xia Ning breathes a sigh of relief and turns around.
“Eh?” Without warning, Xia Ning unexpectedly bumps into a “meat wall”.
She touches her aching nose. Looking up at a pair of bright eagle-like eyes, Xia Ning’s heart skips a beat!
God, when is Yi Yunrui behind him? She didn’t know it at all.
She didn’t expect Yi Yunrui to walk like a cat without making a sound.
Wait a minute, how much did Yi Yunrui hear about her conversation with Lei Buyang?
Xia Ning swallows her saliva with a guilty look. She gives a forced smile, “... Dear, what are you doing here? It’s cold. Go back inside...”
“Who was that on the phone?”
“Just a friend...” Xia Ning turns around and steppes inside.
Yi Yunrui stretches out his hand and fixes Xia Ning tightly in his arms, “Who was that?”
Yi Yunrui is in a silk nightgown with a wide-open neckline, revealing his broad brown chest. The smell of shower gel floats around his body, mixing with his masculine scent, is the indescribable allurement.
Xia Ning’s face turns red all of a sudden!
Even after many years of marriage, Xia Ning’s face still reddens, and her heart races when she sees Yi Yunrui’s body.
This feeling is as heartwarming as first love.
Yi Yunrui sounds tough. It seems she will not be allowed to get inside if she is not honest.
“It’s Lei Buyang.”
Yi Yunrui raises his eyebrows, “Lei Buyang?”
Yi Yunrui’s questioning makes Xia Ning uncomfortable, “I asked him about you and An Lingxi! He saw you two were together. He told me to keep you in check!”
Yi Yunrui is silent for a while. His eyes flash slightly. He sneers, “When did he become a private detective? He is as professional as the police station.”
“He just ran into you two. Don’t overthink it.”
“Really?” Yi Yunrui smiles coldly.
What a coincidence!
“Dear...” Seeing this, Xia Ning says coquettishly, “It’s cold outside. Can we go back inside... Wow!”
Before she can finish speaking, Yi Yunrui lifts her. He says in a low voice, “You spoke for other men. I’ll punish you tonight!”
Xia Ning stares at him and gasps, “I didn’t!”
“No denial.”
“I didn’t!”
“Let’s come to our bedroom.”
“...”
In the early morning of the late autumn, the wind is rustling and the leaves are falling. The sky is still dark. Only a few pedestrians are walking on the road.
Jing Shu parks the car and takes a deep breath in front of the WAITTINGFORYOU coffee shop, and then she pushes open the door and walks in.
The darkness outside has not faded, but the coffee shop is brightly lit. Three waiters are doing the cleaning.
Jing Shu walks in timidly and greets them politely, “Good morning. I have an appointment with Mr. Beitang at five. Do you know where he is?”
Waiters glance at each other. One of them replies, “He hasn’t come yet. He usually comes about six. Why don’t you sit there and wait for him?”
He comes at six?
Jing Shu is dumbfounded. She needs to wait another hour!
If he comes at six, why did he ask her to come at five?
Okay, fine. Maybe he has other plans. She promised that she would come at five. It’s okay to wait another hour.
Thinking of this, Jing Shu sits down and looks around the cafe carefully.
She has only been here once. She came here to apologize, so she didn’t pay attention to other things. Now she notices everything in the coffee shop is neat and clean.
The owner must give a lot of thought to the decor. No matter it is a flower pot or a sculpted relief on the wall, they are all spotlessly clean.
The waiters are responsible for their work. They wipe a cup dozens of times. Many cups are placed in the disinfection cabinet. The cleaning procedure is even stricter than that at home.
They are professional and rigorous!
She heard that this coffee shop had existed for a long time, but the waiters’ attitudes are still so positive, which is really rare.
Jing Shu is fascinated by it unconsciously.
Suddenly, a cup of mellow coffee and a plate of sandwiches are placed in front of her.
Jing Shu is startled. She looks up at Beitang Xiu’s elegant face.
“Morning, Mr. Beitang!” Jing Shu stands up and gives him a deep bow.
When did he come?
Jing Shu glances at the time. It is five thirty.
Wait, didn’t the waiters just say he usually came at six?
“Enjoy your breakfast.”
Jing Shu shakes her head, “Mr. Beitang, I’m not here for breakfast...”
“Let’s have it together.” While talking, Beitang Xiu waves to the waiter behind him and sits beside Jing Shu.
After a while, the waiter takes the same food as Jing Shu’s and puts it in front of Beitang Xiu.
