Chapter 302 Apology

Li Baoer stops biting the drumstick. She drops it down and wipes her hand to take the phone. She puts the phone close to her mouth, but she doesn’t want to speak first.

No. She is still angry!

She is angry with Dai Zhongheng for his hiding the issue from her.

Dai Zhongheng hears no sounds from the other side. He feels confused, “Hello? Mrs. Yi?”

Li Baoer curls her lips and doesn’t respond.

“Mrs. Yi, is that you? Would you speak…”

“You Fool.” Li Baoer complains.

“Baoer!” It sounds that Dai Zhongheng finally feel relieved, “God. Sweetie, I finally find you! Where are you? I have been looking for you the whole night…”

“Bullshit! You were called back by the army. How could you look for me for the whole night?”

“I went to the military region and came back soon. I looked for you everywhere. You turned off your phone. Thank goodness. You finally show up.”

Li Baoer rolls her eyes, “I show up. So what? I don’t know how many things you hide from me! Colonel Dai, I always believed you to be an honest man. I really couldn’t imagine that you would do that to me! I was too blind to see the truth of you!”

“Baoer, where are you? I come to you now. It is all my fault. Don’t be angry. OK? I apologize. It is my fault. Tell me where you are.”

Li Baoer takes a drumstick and takes a forceful bite, “I am eating with Zhenzhen.”

“Where are you eating?”

“Somewhere on the earth.”

“…” Dai Zhongheng is anxious but also helpless. He is clear that he has to be patient at present. He needs to comfort his wife before any other things, “Where are you?”

Xia Ning looks at her naughtily refusing to tell Dai Zhongheng where she is while Dai Zhongheng keeps apologizing to her. They “argue” in this way for almost half an hour and Li Baoer finally tells Dai Zhongheng where she is.

Ten minutes later, Dai Zhongheng arrives at the door of the McDonald’s. Several army vehicles come with him. They look so shocking that the restaurant manager is frightened, wondering if anything serious happens.

The soldiers wait outside. Dai Zhongheng comes into the restaurant. He lowers his head to apologize to Li Baoer. He tries hard to please her and comfort her for quite a while to get Li Baoer’s forgiveness.

Xia Ning glances at the soldiers and army vehicles outside. It seems that Dai Zhongheng looked for Li Baoer everywhere once he had finished his mission. All the soldiers were influenced by their quarrel.

At the time, Zhang Hai receives a call from Yi Yunrui. He has finished his work.

The hospital has just told that Yi Yunrui has to go back for further treatment. Xia Ning and Zhang Hai go back to C military region and send Yi Yunrui back to the hospital.

Yi Yunrui lies on the white bed with a very displeased look.

Actually, he doesn’t think it necessary to send him back to the hospital. However, the wound on his chest is too serious so he has to be patient for some more days.

Unexpectedly, his father Yi Xian and his brothers Yi Yuntian and Yi Yunyi also come to the hospital. His father, who is a bright and easy-going man, now darkens his face. Xia Ning feels shocked.

Yi Xian sits down and stares at Xia Ning. He says seriously, “Ning, as to your mother-in-law’s behaviors, I am here to apologize to you for her. I hope you can forgive her.”

Xia Ning is shocked blankly!

Her father-in-law comes in person to apologize to her!

Xia Ning is stunned for a few seconds and then she stands up in awe. She bows at her father-in-law, “Father, that’s all right. Actually, what mom said is correct. A wife should be more considerate of her husband…”

“That is not right. Ning, you may sit down first.” Yi Xian lifts his hand, “Rui is a soldier. I understand the difficulties of being the wife of an army man. To be honest, Rui should be kinder to you. I will talk with your mother-in-law. Ning, don’t worry. Things like this will never happen again.”

Xia Ning wants to respond. However Yi Yunrui speaks first, “Brother Yunyi, how about you?”

Yi Yunrui is asking about the relation between Yi Yunyi and Gu Ruoruo.

Yi Yunyi gives a sigh and shakes his head, “It is hard.”

He just got a “yes” for his proposal to Gu Ruoruo yesterday. But it was ruined today. Yi Yunyi feels deadly depressed about this problem. However, the person who ruined it is not other people but his mother. He really feels upset, just like a dumb person who can’t tell what a bitter thing he has just swallowed.

“Dad, you may not be partial to mom again this time.” Yi Yuntian says, “I don’t want my wife to be bullied by mom in the future.”

Yi Xian nods, “I know. Yuntian, Yunyi, you are both old enough. You may try to get married soon. I will take care of the problems of your mother.”

“OK!” Yi Yuntian stands and stretches himself, “I have just come back from America. I am exhausted. Dad, you may take your time to chat. I need to get some sleep.”

Before anyone responds, Yi Yuntian directly walks out of the ward.

As to what Yi Yuntian did, none of Yi Yunrui, Yi Yunyi or Yi Xian can understand.

For more than ten years, Yi Yuntian is always busy around the world as if he didn’t have a home. Suddenly, he deliberately flew back from America just to find a place in C City to sleep?

That is really incomprehensible.

Yi Yunyi laughs, “Rui, it seems that Feng has to face some risks.”

Yi Yunrui lifts his eyebrows. Can his eldest brother really have a crush on Leng Weiwei?

As far as he knows, his eldest brother changes his lover once per month. He wonders how much his brother loves Leng Weiwei.

However, if Yi Yuntian chases after Leng Weiwei just for fun, it may cause some embarrassments in Ning’s working with Leng Weiwei.

“About this issue, I will talk with our eldest brother when I have time.” Yi Yunrui says. He grasps Xia Ning’s hand and holds it in his palm.

Yi Yunyi feels a little sad to see their intimate behaviors. He just “lost” his lover.

“I… may leave now.” Yi Yunyi stands up. He takes two steps and stops as if he remembers something. He turns to Xia Ning, “Ning, when you have time, please help me talk with Ruoruo. Will you?”

Xia Ning feels surprised to hear his words.

Yi Yunyi is the secretary of the provincial party committee and the ruler of the official circle. However, he can find no way out in dealing with Gu Ruoruo…

Seemingly, everyone can be conquered by the very right one.

“Brother, don’t worry. I will talk with Ruoruo…”

“Wait!” Yi Yunyi interrupts, “No, you may not do that. Ruoruo feels annoyed when she hears my name now. We may wait for a few days.”

Xia Ning wants to respond something else. But she finds Yi Yunyi very distressed. So she just comfort him, “Ruoruo is frank. She will be fine after she gets over the anger. Brother, don’t worry.”

Yi Yunyi thinks for a while, “I hope so.”

On the next day, Zheng Yao is taken back to B City by her husband Yi Xian. Xia Ning had got the one-week wedding vacation. However, she is worried about the relation between Yi Yunyi and Gu Ruoruo. So, she decides that she will go back to the company to have a look.

Gu Ruoruo is surprised to see Xia Ning come back. She widens her eyes, “Sister Xia, aren’t you on your wedding vacation? Why do you come back?”

Xia Ning smiles, “I just come back to have a look here. Is there anything for me to handle?”

Gu Ruoruo thinks for a while carefully and responds, “No for now. All the supervisors are cooperative. Sister Xia, you may take it easy to enjoy your vacation. We will take charge of the work here.”

“Thank you.” Xia Ning hesitates, “Are you busy now? If not, please make a cup of coffee for me. I need to talk with you about some issues.”

“OK.” Gu Ruoruo turns to make the coffee.

A few minutes later, Gu Ruoruo brings two cups of hot cappuccino and comes in. She closes the door.

“Sister Xia, have a taste to see whether it is sweet enough.”

Xia Ning takes a sip, “It is perfect.”

They sit there for a while. Gu Ruoruo blinks her eyes, “Sister Xia, do you have anything to talk with me?”

Xia Ning curls her lips, wondering how to start the topic.

“Sister Xia, I read the newspaper.”

“Hum?” Newspaper?

“About Yin Jingsi and Zheng Xiaoruo.” Gu Ruoruo gives a sigh, “I couldn’t imagine that Yin Jingsi and Zheng Xiaoruo were such people. I was really too naïve in the past. I believed Yin Jingsi’s words and adored her as my idol for such a long time. I was a real fool.”

“Everyone has two sides. Yin Jingsi hid the bad side of her very well. It was understandable that you didn’t know that.”

“I remember what I said to you and that I simply left you in the hotel alone in that evening…” Gu Ruoruo clenches her fists. It seems that she feels very regretful. She forcefully fists the table, “Sister Xia, I was a real fool. I am sorry.”

Xia Ning smiles, “It is over now. Never mind. What is important is that we know the truth now. I was wondering whether you would still adore Yin Jingsi after you learned the truth.”

“Of course not.” Gu Ruoruo shakes her head decisively, “In the past, I thought Yin Jingsi was kind and beautiful. I want to grow up to be like her. So, I adored her. I didn’t expect her to be so evil.”

Xia Ning takes a sip of the coffee. She puts down the cup on the table and stares at Gu Ruoruo.

Gu Ruoruo feels a little shy to be stared at. She strokes her head and asks, “Sister Xia, why do you stare at me?”

“Ruoruo, actually, I come back here today for you.”

“For me?” Gu Ruoruo blinks her eyes. She seems to understand, “Sister Xia, do you want to talk with me about Uncle Yunyi?”

Xia Ning twitches her lips, Uncle Yunyi…

“Yes.” Xia Ning admits frankly.

Gu Ruoruo pouts, “Sister Xia, I know you must come here to say good words for him. It is right. I like Uncle Yunyi very much. But he is a playboy. You see that. Women come for him. I don’t like that. I don’t want to have a man of that kind.”

Seemingly, Gu Ruoruo has a great misunderstanding.

“Yes. Brother Yunyi is popular with many people. But the women take initiative to come for him. As far as I know, all these years, he has only admitted one girlfriend. That is you.”

Gu Ruoruo brightens her eyes to hear Xia Ning’s words, “I am the only one? Then, who was that woman we met yesterday?”

Xia Ning strokes her forehead, wondering whether she should say bad words about her mother-in-law.

“Sister Xia, is it inconvenient for you to tell?”

“No.” Xia Ning shakes her head, “Actually, the women you saw yesterday were deliberately brought there by my mother-in-law to enrage us. You are not the only victim. After you left, Weiwei also left angrily. Honestly, it was because of me. My mother-in-law is angry with me. But you and Weiwei were also influenced.”
