Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband

Chapter 353 A Sudden Arrangement

Zhou Mengyao tells the history of Yi Xian and her in a casual voice. She even wears a mild smile. However, Xia Ning understands that the truth can’t be so simple.

“I come back to the country this time mainly to meet my old friends. I heard Yi Xian mention you. So, I am very interested in you. It was a coincidence that you were also in the hospital last time. Therefore, I went to see you.”

Xia Ning feels a little shy, “I am very lazy and unambitious. I seldom impress other people. I feel really shy about it.”

Zhou Mengyao puts down the coffee. She feels confused, “Why do you describe yourself in this way? Yi Xian gave you a lot of compliments. He said that you were a very nice daughter-in-law.”

Xia Ning feels surprised, “Seriously?”

“You silly girl.” Zhou Mengyao pats on her hand, “I know you have some conflicts with your mother-in-law, Zheng Yao. However, don’t depreciate yourself. All the men of the Yi family are awesome. I believe in the judgement of the third son of the family. I also know some things about you. At least, you are much politer than those girls from noble families. What is more important is that,” Zhou Mengyao lowers her voice, “You can withstand the bad temper of Zheng Yao.”

If she were another girl from some noble family, there would be battles against Zheng Yao.

Having such an obedient daughter-in-law, Zheng Yao should feel lucky. Zhou Mengyao really can’t understand Zheng Yao, she has got everything, why doesn’t she feel satisfied?”

Xia Ning blinks her eyes, “Zheng Yao is my mother-in-law, the mother of my husband. I don’t want to confront her or put Rui in difficulty. Actually, Aunt Zhou, I am not as good as you think. I am not always obedient.”

“That’s absolutely correct! You are the wife of Rui, not a servant of Zheng Yao. Why should you obey her in everything? As long as you are happy with Rui, don’t care about other annoyances!” Zhou Mengyao drinks some coffee and says slowly, “If Junhao cared about my identity in the past, I wouldn’t marry him. I am very grateful to him for giving me over ten years of happy time.”

Xia Ning listens quietly. Suddenly, she realizes that happiness is very simple. That is two persons staying together, knowing each other, loving each other and taking care of each other. A lifetime passes fast like an instant.

“Ning, you are a kind and considerate kid. Don’t mind what other people say. You may only keep it in mind that you are going to lead a happy life with your husband. Unless you have no other choices, don’t ever give up.”

Xia Ning nods. To give up Yi Yunrui? She is not willing to do that. Thinking of the scene that he stayed in the locked-up room, she feels her heart so painful that she can hardly breathe.

“Aunt Zhou, unless Rui doesn’t want me, I will never let go of him.”

At the time, Xia Ning’s phone rings. She finds that it is Gu Ruoruo.

“Excuse me, I need to answer the phone call.” Xia Ning says and presses the answer button, “Ruoruo, what’s up?”

“Sister Xia, there is an urgent case. It is about the important exclusive interview tonight. However, the reporter arranged to it had a car accident and was sent to the hospital. I can’t find the appropriate reporter for it at one time. Sister Xia, that client comes back from Japan. He is quite a big shot. Not every of our reporters can deal with him. Can you figure it out?”

Xia Ning frowns. She glances at the time, “What time is the interview arranged at?”

“At eight in the evening.”

It is four. There are still four hours before eight. If she starts to get prepared now, there won’t be any problems in the exclusive interview.

“Send the information of the client to me. I am coming back. As to the injured reporter, Ruoruo, please take good care of it.”

“OK. Sister Xia.” Gu Ruoruo seems to remember something. She cries, “Wait. Sister Xia, I need to remind you one thing. The client seems to have some connection with an illegal society in Japan. Are you afraid of that?”

Xia Ning laughs, “That’s silly. All big shots know some people from the illegal society. It is nothing serious. Well. That is all. I am coming back now.”

Then, Xia Ning hangs up.

When she hangs up the phone, she turns to Zhou Mengyao. And she suddenly realizes that she is with Zhou Mengyao. If she leaves her alone, it is very impolite.

“Aunt Zhou, I am sorry. My assistant just called me. I have some urgent cases to deal with. Aunt Zhou, do you mind coming for coffee some day later?”

“You are busy. You may go back for now. You don’t need to apologize for that. Anyway, I have plenty of time. But I am leaving for B City soon. I have an appointment with your father-in-law, Yi Xian.”

Xia Ning feels confused. Her mother-in-law is here, while Zhou Mengyao is going to B City...That sounds strange.

Zhou Mengyao is aware of Xia Ning’s confusion. She says in a low voice, “Ning, you may pretend that you know nothing about it. I will ask Yi Xian to tell Zheng Yao to go home.”

Xia Ning widens her eyes. She wonders how can Zhou Mengyao know that Zheng Yao came to her house.

Wait. Zheng Yao told her to prepare ten dishes and a soup. Seemingly, it is impossible for her to finish them. If she calls to tell Zheng Yao, she will definitely be scolded by Zheng Yao. Well, she may just send her a message for it.

However, she is afraid that Zheng Yao may act as she did last time. She may call to scold her again and again. That will be too bad.

Aunt Zhou waves at the waiter and gets ready to pay the bill. At the time, the waiter sends her a blue rose with a golden card.

“Madams, my boss says, it is in the house. He hopes you will come again.”

Zhou Mengyao hesitates for a while. She smiles, “OK. I see. Please tell Uncle Tian that I will come often.”

“OK. Thank you for coming.”

When Uncle Tian is mentioned, Xia Ning realizes that this Uncle Tian must know that Zhou Mengyao and she are having coffee here. Why doesn’t he come to see Zhou Mengyao? Hasn’t he looked forward to that for a long time?

They go out of the coffee shop. The time is tight. Zhou Mengyao drives Xia Ning back to the Media Building. When she stops the car, Zhou Mengyao asks mysteriously, “Do you like my car?”

Xia Ning smiles, “Yes, of course.”

She believes that most girls like Ferrari cars, especially the model Aunt Zhou is driving, which is really shockingly cool.

“OK. I see.”

Xia Ning goes back to her office. There are some files on her desk already. Gu Ruoruo sees her. She says at once, “Sister Xia, all the files are here on the desk. I also send a copy to your email. You may check it. If you have any questions, please let me know.”

“OK. Thank you, Ruoruo.” Xia Ning sits down and opens the file.

Wang Baoliang, male, is forty years old. He used to be the boss of Wulian Company in Japan and also the leader of the Team White Tiger in Yamaguchi-gumi.

Xia Ning reads this and her pupils freeze at once!

Yamaguchi-gumi.

That is the biggest gang in Japan!

Wait. Wang Baoliang was very successful in Japan. Why does he come back to China? He is forty years old. That is quite young.

“Ruoruo, do you know why Wang Baoliang comes back to China?”

“Wang Baoliang took the initiative to contact us. He also initiatively called the reporter for his interview. That reporter kept in touch with him all the time. However, he mentioned once that the case of Wang Baoliang seemed to be a little mysterious. He hesitates for quite a while himself before making the decision. Then, he had an accident.” Gu Ruoruo hesitates for a while, “Sister Xia, the case doesn’t seem right. Shall we cancel the interview?”

Xia Ning thinks for a while, “Since we have agreed to do it, we have to do it. World Era Weekly has confronted a lot of drug traffickers and bullies. However, we have never called off any appointments. Ruoruo, don’t worry. I will figure it out. You may go out to work.”

Gu Ruoruo is still a little worried, “Anyway, Sister Xia, be careful.”

Gu Ruoruo turns to leave. Xia Ning puts down the file. Instinctively, she feels something wrong in the case.

The reporter had an accident at this point of time...It doesn’t seem to be a coincidence.

Thinking about this, she touches her bracelet and the ring and the cosmetic box in her handbag. She will go for the exclusive interview on her own. If anything dangerous happens to her, these weapons should be helpful for her in protection.

Anyway, Rui hasn’t come back. She can’t get herself hurt.

Thinking about this, she takes out her phone and calls Zhang Hai.

“Zhang Hai, I have an appointment at eight in the evening. Please go to the Ming Dian coffee shop at eight twenty. Well, do you know anything about Wang Baoliang?”

Zhang Hai thinks for a while, “I heard about him. He was a member of Yamaguchi-gumi. The boss liked him very much. I heard that he came back to China recently.”

“Yes. The person I am going to interview tonight is him.”

Zhang Hai is shocked, “Mrs. Yi, Wang Baoliang is a dangerous man. You’d better cancel the interview.”

“It is a matter of credibility to the company. I can’t cancel it. And Wang Baoliang took the initiative to contact us. That must because he believed in World Era Weekly. I think he may want to ask for a favor from World Era Weekly. Based on this, I have to go for the interview. Zhang Hai, if you can be there at eight twenty, everything will be safe.”

Zhang Hai thinks for a while and responds, “OK. Mrs. Yi, I will follow your arrangement.”

After giving some instructions, Xia Ning hangs up the phone. She looks at the pile of files on the desk, feeling that it won’t make any difference whether she reads them or not.”

If Wang Baoliang really wants to ask for help from the World Era Weekly...

However, about the supper...Xia Ning remembers it and feels her head aches. Zheng Yao has said that Xia Ning is not allowed to take her work at the company as an excuse. However, it is an urgent case instead of an excuse.

If she lies, Zheng Yao will surely find it out. Mei Ruo will also know the truth, let alone Zheng Yao.

Xia Ning thinks for a while and decides that she shall tell the truth. She takes out her phone and sends a message to Zheng Yao: “Mom, the reporter for the interview this evening had a car accident. It is urgent. I will have to go to the interview instead. I can’t go home to prepare supper. I am sorry.”

After finishing typing the text, Xia Ning hesitates for quite another while and then presses the Send button.

Xia Ning feels her heart hung up.

Unsurprisingly, Zheng Yao calls her very soon.

Xia Ning looks at the number on the screen. She takes a deep breath, getting mentally prepared for being scolded.

She presses the answer button forcefully. She hasn’t spoken anything when Zheng Yao has started, “Xia Ning, didn’t you hear what I said before?”

“Mom, please don’t be angry. I know. But this is a special case. That reporter is lying in bed. We can’t break the appointment with the client...”

“Don’t you lecture on me! I don’t care what happens in your company. You should handle it yourself! If...” When Zheng Yao is speaking, her phone alerts her the calling of another number. When she sees the number, she turns pale at once.
