Xia Ning almost loses her temper when her phone rings. Yi Yunrui calls.

Xia Ning is shocked. She says to Ou Yixuan, “My husband is calling.”

Then she wants to stand up and walk away to answer the phone. Ou Yixuan stops her, “You can answer it here.”

Xia Ning hesitates and soon she presses the button.

It is very quiet at the other end of the phone. Xia Ning glances at the watch and sees it is past seven in the evening. Yi Yunrui should be at Mei Ruo’s house. Why is it so quiet?

“Where are you?” Yi Yunrui asks.

“I…” Xia Ning glances at Ou Yixuan, “I am outside. Aren’t you at Commissar Mei’s house for dinner? It is quiet there.”

“They are in the house. I come out.”

“Err, I will go back after supper. You have fun.”

“OK…” He pauses, “Who are you with?”

Xia Ning pauses, “I am with Baoer. Don’t worry. I will be back soon.”

There is a silence at the other end. Xia Ning is confused. Then Yi Yunrui says, “OK. I see.”

He hangs up at once.

Xia Ning frowns slightly. Yi Yunrui’s voice sounds strange.

“Are you two good?” Ou Yixuan asks.

Xia Ning is stuck. She is angry, “Ou Yixuan, there are some things I want to make clear to you. You always regard my marriage with Yi Yunrui as an impulsive action. I really had some thought when I made the decision. However, I am not a shallow person and I will be responsible for what I did. Yi Yunrui is nice to me. Honestly, in the lifetime, it is not easy to find the one who is nice to us. Ou Yixuan, don’t think that I am married because of you. Everybody has the right to pursue happiness. Since you can’t give me happiness, I will find mine myself. You are a good guy, but you are too self-righteous. Anyway, thank you. Thanks to you, I see clearly the reality and myself. I hope we will not have any contact since today. This is good for both of our families. Do you think so?”

Ou Yixuan looks at Xia Ning blankly and can’t speak for quite a while.

Everybody has the right to pursue happiness. He can’t give her happiness…

Well, that is it. What she said is right.

She was with him for eight years, but he couldn’t give her happiness.

What about him now? Is he happy?

“Xia Ning.” Despondently, Ou Yixuan gives a long sigh, “You are right. I am too self-righteous. I have overestimated myself.”

“Ou Yixuan, please get it clear. I am not here to criticize you. I don’t have the right to judge you. It is my opinion. Since both of us have a family now, all our good is for that person…”

“Ning.” Ou Yixuan interrupts and says slowly, “I am hateful to you, but since we are here today, I want to remind you of something.”

Xia Ning hesitates. She curls her lips, “OK. You may go ahead, but I don’t know if I will agree.”

“Yi Yunrui comes from a superior family. There are numerous women liking him. Those women are all with some background. This is a materialistic society. It is very hard for a man to control his desire for power. Ning, you are born in an innocent family. I don’t know how long Yi Yunrui will stay with you. Possibly, he got married with you for an impulse that he couldn’t leave you to be bullied by others. Ning, are you sure that Yi Yunrui really loves you? What does he love you for? When he loses interest in you, you will be left alone at last. Ning, is this the happiness you are pursuing?”

At the moment, Xia Ning can’t speak a word.

Though what Ou Yixuan said is rude, it is the reality, the cruel reality.

What does she have to keep Yi Yunrui staying with her?

She doesn’t know a thing.

At least, compared with Mei Ruo, she is really…

Xia Ning bites her lips and she clenches her fists unconsciously.

Now, Yi Yunrui is at Mei Ruo’s house. She is unhappy. She is jealous, but she is unable to call Yi Yunrui back!

Mrs. Commander is just a name. Except for Yi Yunrui, everyone can give her embarrassment.

Who is she?

“Sorry, I should not say these. I am really worried. I am worried that if that really happens one day, will you be OK?” She is sad and helpless. He sees it, but his mind is conflicting. He doesn’t want her to be happy and wants to ruin her life, but once he says the words, he feels deadly regretful. Is he a man yet?

Xia Ning slightly closes her eyes and then opens them. She says word by word, “You don’t need to bother with that. I promised my parents. No matter what happens, I will live on happily.”

They are talking, when they hear a little commotion in the coffee shop, which is getting bigger. They can’t help turning to have a look themselves.

Xia Ning sees a tall man come and stand by her side.

He is in a dark green army uniform. His overwhelmingly cold and tough look shocks all in the shop with a sense of respectful dignity.

She hasn’t made any reactions, while the man takes her hand and says gently, “Darling, can I sit by you?”

Xia Ning is shocked blankly!

Isn’t Yi Yunrui in Mei Ruo’s house? Why is he here?

Not waiting for Xia Ning’s response, Yi Yunrui sits down. He holds Xia Ning’s hand naturally. His sharp eyes look at Ou Yixuan, while the latter is shocked and feels that his heart is frozen.

“Editor Ou, what a coincidence.”

What Yi Yunrui says hits right at Ou Yixuan’s weak point. Ou Yixuan smiles reluctantly, “Yes. Hi.”

Her hand is held by Yi Yunrui tightly. Xia Ning feels guilty. She wants to pull back her hand, but Yi Yunrui holds it more tightly.

Yi Yunrui looks at Xia Ning, “Darling, I come here to pick you up. Are you done here?”

Xia Ning curls her lips and nods.

In fact, she doesn’t have much to talk with Ou Yixuan. And she lied to Yi Yunrui just now…Well, Yi Yunrui pops up here. Seemingly when he called her, he must have seen that she was with Ou Yixuan!

Damn. It is really what is called “being caught on the site”.

Ah…caught on the site. It seems that she can never get it explained clearly.

“Good.” Yi Yunrui turns to Ou Yixuan, “Editor Ou, have you finished?”

Yi Yunrui means two things in the words. Ou Yixuan feels embarrassed, “Actually, I came across Ning here, so we have a cup of coffee together. I hope Commander Yi doesn’t mind.”

“Mind?” Yi Yunrui lifts his eyebrows, “I absolutely trust Ning. I am just afraid that some people can’t bear other’s doing well and will stir up flames.

Ou Yixuan’s face darkens and he doesn’t respond.

At the time, the clerk comes over and is going to speak, but Yi Yunrui waves his hand, “I am just here to pick up my wife.”

The clerk nods and goes away.

“Darling, can we go now?”

Feeling her hand held tightly, Xia Ning nods.

Yi Yunrui holds Xia Ning. They are going to leave when he remembers something. He says to Ou Yixuan, “Well, there is another thing. Yin Jingsi is at the gate. I believe she has seen what Editor Ou did. And, as regards to the gossips you mentioned behind me, I would like to get it clear here. Those will never happen.”

Yi Yunrui finishes his words and holds Xia Ning to walk out, leaving Ou Yixuan there, shocked blankly.

When they walk out of the door, Xia Ning sees there is an Audi car not far away. The woman sitting inside looks like Yin Jingsi. That must be her.

“Mrs. Yi!” Feng Le greets them and opens the door.

Yi Yunrui helps Xia Ning to get on the car and tells Feng Le, “Military Compound.”

“Yes, Sir!”

When they leave, Xia Ning glances at the coffee shop and finds Ou Yixuan standing still there for a long time, while Yin Jingsi stares at him in the car. There is only one wall between them, but they stay like that.

On the way home, Yi Yunrui doesn’t speak a word. Xia Ning lowers her head and dares not to say anything either. After all, she did the wrong thing. Her hand is held by Yi Yunrui. She feels guilty and tries to pull her hand back but fails. At the end, she is held by Yi Yunrui into his embrace instead. He holds her tightly.

Commander Yi doesn’t say anything. He freezes his face and she can’t guess what he is thinking about.

Is he angry? Or what?

When they arrive home, Xia Ning finds a lot of foods for making a hot pot on the table and she realizes that Yi Yunrui went back home before he went out.

According to the current scene, she knows Yi Yunrui has not had any supper.

“Didn’t you have supper at Commissar Mei’s house?” Xia Ning is surprised.

Yi Yunrui takes off his coat and hangs it, “Did I say that?”

Xia Ning is stunned. Seemingly he didn’t.

“But Commissar Mei called me today, telling me that you were going to have supper at her house to celebrate her coming back. And many people would go there.”

Yi Yunrui ponders for a while and frowns, “Did she call you?”

“Hum.” Xia Ning nods. It seems something is unusual.

Yi Yunrui doesn’t respond. He takes the foods to wash in the kitchen. Xia Ning immediately follows him to help.

“It is cold. Don’t do the washing.” Yi Yunrui stops her and takes the vegetable from her hands.

Xia Ning blinks her eyes, “I am not a Miss Lady. I am not fragile.” Saying this, she tries to grab the vegetable from Yi Yunrui.

“Ning.” Yi Yunrui holds her hand. He opens his mouth but he doesn’t say anything. He turns to pour a basin of warm water and puts the vegetable inside, “Let’s wash together.”

Seeing Yi Yunrui change the cold water with warm water, Xia Ning feels warm in her heart. She washes the vegetable with him, “You haven’t had any supper. Do you?”

“Hum.”

“Then why didn’t you tell me earlier? I can make supper for you.” Saying this, Xia Ning smiles, “Though I don’t cook well. Err, at least, Commander Yi doesn’t need to do it yourself.”

“Those who complain that you don’t cook well are not blessed to have the chance.” Yi Yunrui says slowly, “You are right. Today, Commissar Mei made a treat and many people went to her house. She invited me. I planned to go with you. However, I had to attend a sudden meeting and had to call it off.”

“Oh.” Seemingly, Commander Yi was back just now. Xia Ning thinks for a while and confesses, “Actually I really had dinner with Baoer. After dinner, we came out and met Ou Yixuan by chance. Today is his birthday. He wanted to talk with me and I agreed. I was thinking of making some things clear to him. I was afraid that you might misunderstand, so…” Xia Ning says and glances at Yi Yunrui secretly, “Sorry. I am wrong.”
