On the night of Huo Zhanpeng’s press conference, Director Tong also had a press conference. He announced that slander and libel in the media must be banned according to the criminal law once confirmed.

Director Tong of C City seldom held a press conference. He only did so when something happened. The public had a general idea of the person related to this press conference.

Director Tong said slander and libel instead of “power and monopoly”. It was then obvious who Director Tong was implying.

After the press conference, Weibo saw a heated discussion. He Yuan’s fans from C City were speculating about Director Tong’s intention.

Xia Ning watched the whole press conference and was confused, “Why did Director Tong release the news at this moment? Was he trying to reach out to Huo Zhanpeng or me?”

“Director Tong was trying to warn Huo Zhanpeng.” Yi Yunrui said directly, “Huo Zhanpeng has gone wild these days. Director Tong wanted to warn Huo Zhanpeng that if Huo Zhanpeng continued this way, he would have to do something.”

“But he will need evidence to justify his actions. Huo Zhanpeng has a good plan and acting skills to fool many people. If Director Tong has any suspicion, that should be on me. But why him?”

“If you don’t want anyone to know, don’t do it. Director Tong must have some clues so that he could say this confidently. Dear, no worries. You only need to rest assured for our baby.” Yi Yunrui said and stroked his wife’s hair gently.

So Yi Yunrui must also know something. Perhaps he had arranged for everything, right?

Xia Ning stared into her husband’s eyes, trying to find some clues. But she could only see the coddling.

Yi Yunrui felt his heart racing when his wife’s big glassy eyes were on him. His wife was like a cat scratching his heart.

“Dear…”

“Yeah?”

Xia Ning blinked her eyes. Her lips moved to utter something. And then she felt shaking. The next second, her lips were sealed by Yi Yunrui’s.

“Hmm…” She moaned, feeling the fire lit up in her mouth by the tongue. Xia Ning lost quickly to Yi Yunrui’s gentle attack.

Love was in the room…

Tossing the phone to the ground, Yuriko Shizuka gritted her teeth in anger.

Her father had called to tell her to return home in three days.

Her father had always cosseted her. He knew that she had come to China. The order that she must return in three days was the toughest one she had ever received.

“My lady, what’s wrong?” Zuo Yi felt strange so he asked respectfully.

“My father has asked me to return. Like immediately.”

“Any emergency in the family?”

“No.” Closing her eyes, Yuriko Shizuka took a deep breath, “My father banned me from coming to China for a year.”

Zuo Yi was surprised, “Why is that?”

“He didn’t specify the reason. But I could tell he was angry…” Saying this, Yuriko’s eyes widened. Someone just came to her mind.

Yi Yunrui!

The last time she attacked Xia Ning, Yi Yunrui chose to counter the entire Third Rear Group. The Third Rear Group had to give up a third of its power due to the gunfight with the Chinese military. It was severely undermined. Her father was highly furious and slapped her for the first time.

It hurt her so deeply that she could not forget.

Her father used a similar tone this time to the last, which meant that Yi Yunrui pressured him.

It must be because of Xia Ning that Yi Yunrui did that.

She gave Xia Ning a year. And now, her father banned her from entering China for a year. It seemed that Yi Yunrui had used her own word against her.

A year was not a long time. But she could not swallow the insult!

She would go back to Japan anyway. She would teach a woman a lesson before that.

Even if something happened, she was the only child. Her father would never really punish her.

Bloodlust quickly passed her beautiful eyes. An evil thought rooted in her heart.

The next morning.

Birds were twittering in the flower bloom outside the window. Xia Ning opened her eyes. Yi Yunrui was already up, but his scent was left on the bedsheet and smelt good.

Last night they were about to lose control when Yi Yunrui gave every effort to hold himself back. He went to the bathroom for a whole hour to jerk off. When he returned, he consciously maintained a distance from her. But when she woke up in the middle of the night, she found herself being held tightly from the back by Yi Yunrui.

His hot breath was close to her ears, making her heart race.

He was suppressing himself and so was she. But the doctor had warned that the initial three months were risky and sex should be banned. She could tell Yi Yunrui’s pain.

She was also in great pain.

She got up, walked to the hall, and found Yi Yunrui busy in the kitchen. He looked gorgeous in his white cloth. The apron on him did not make him look funny but more approachable.

Yi Yunrui was the commander of the military region in the C City. But he was willing to do the housework for her at home. His love made her feel warm. Happiness was as simple as watching people you loved and feeling satisfied.

Feeling someone was looking, Yi Yunrui put down the ladle. He turned around and saw his wife was in her pajamas, barefoot, staring at him. He was a bit anxious. He put down the ladle, took off his apron, and walked out, “Put on the slippers, little fool. It’s cold to walk barefoot.”

Yi Yunrui took out a pair of slippers from the bedroom and placed them beside Xia Ning’s feet.

“It’s not even autumn. It’s not that cold.” Xia Ning slipped into the slippers and stroked her husband’s dark hair.

“I’m making some meat porridge and some dim sum. We’re having Chinese breakfast today. Go brush your teeth and wash your face. The porridge is nearly done.”

“Okay.” Xia Ning replied and went to the bathroom.

She brushed her teeth, washed her face, and got changed. When Xia Ning walked out a few minutes later, the breakfast was ready.

It smelt delicious in the dining room.

Shaomai, rice noodle roll, meat bun, and Chinese cruller, were all her favorite dishes. Xia Ning enjoyed her breakfast with the meat porridge.

“Dear, I’ll be back to the military region today. There’s a meeting in the evening. So, I’ll probably be home late. When you come back, check the pot and reheat the soup. And then make yourself some dinner.”

Xia Ning nodded, “Okay, I see. Dear, you don’t have to make the soup if you’re busy today. I’ll cook myself dinner when I come back.”

She knew how to cook, but she was lazy to do it. And Yi Yunrui had been pampering her. She could not remember the last time she cooked.

“No worries. I’m not that busy. I still have the time to make the soup. It’s important to take in nutrition since you’re now pregnant. I’ll make you something when I’m back as well.”

“Okay.” Xia Ning said obediently. She knew that if she declined, Yi Yunrui would be upset.

After breakfast, Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning got into the car. Xia Ning found plenty of police in the street of C City on their way. She wondered if something was going on.

“Dear, there’s a lot of police in the street.”

“In case there’s a mob.”

“Hmm? A mob of what?”

“He Yuan’s fans.” Saying so, Yi Yunrui held his wife’s hand tightly, “Don’t go out alone these days, if not necessary. He Yuan’s fans got a bit of carried away.”

Her husband made light of the situation, but Xia Ning knew that there must be loads of things going on. “Okay.”

Now the priority was the safety of her and her baby. She would be extremely alert.

The police force was much larger near the media building. Yi Yunrui specifically alerted her to watch out when Xia Ning got out of the car.

Xia Ning was back in the chief editor’s office and found Jing Shu was not on her chair today. Usually, at this time, Jing Shu would already be waiting for her with coffee ready.

Meanwhile, the door was knocked. In came An Lingxi.

Xia Ning was surprised to see An Lingxi. She gave An Lingxi a three-day off to get over the jet lag. But An Lingxi was already back to work the second day.

“Morning, Chief Editor Xia.” An Lingxi greeted. She was followed by Jing Shu.

Jing Shu walked in with two cups of coffee in her hands, “Sister Xia, Deputy Editor An and I were making coffee.”

Still cappuccino, but the color looked different. Xia Ning took a sip and her eyes lit up.

The milk flavor, the sweetness, and the coffee flavor had a perfect combination!

“Tastes good?” Jing Shu kept her in suspension, “Deputy Editor An made it! She’s so good at it!”

Xia Ning kept nodding, “It’s so good! Lingxi, how did you make this coffee?”

“I made it in the usual way but with different coffee beans. I asked someone to get me these special beans before coming to C City. I’ll ask him to get me more next time if you also like the coffee, Chief Editor Xia.”

“Are they hard to get?”

“Not really. He also likes the beans. It doesn’t take extra effort.”

“Thank you so much.” She would like to say “no”, but the coffee was too good for her to turn down the offer.

“Sister Xia, here’s your schedule for today.” Jing Shu gave her a schedule.

Xia Ning took a look and saw the lunch meeting. It was with the newly appointed director of the tax revenue office.

Yi Yunrui had said that she should not go out these days.

But she did not want to turn the director of the tax revenue office down.

Just for this time. It would be alright.

“Sister Xia, Deputy Editor Leng told me last night that she could get back to work from tomorrow.”

“Okay, I see.” Xia Ning thought there would be no problems tomorrow when Leng Weiwei met An Lingxi, “And then we’ll have a quick meeting tomorrow afternoon. I’ll introduce Deputy Editor An to everyone.”

“Okay. I’ll send out the notice.” Jing Shu went back to her seat.

“Chief Editor Xia.” An Lingxi put down her coffee and said, “I heard that Deputy Editor Leng had some minor issues with you. May I ask what it is about?”.
