Chapter 425 How Much Does She Know?
The investigator looks at the invoice . The date on it is 13th of the month . She thinks for a while . Then, she dials a number and says, “Help me to check whether Qianfu Jewelry received a payment of amount four hundred thousand yuan in its account on 13th of the month . ”
Xia Ning feels a little nervous . She knew that they would check about it . But she still feels worried .
After a few minutes, the woman’s phone rings . She takes up the phone and listens to it . Then, she hangs up . She turns to Xia Ning, “You had paid for it . Why did Qianfu Jewelry still take the payment of one hundred thousand yuan from Secretary Yi?”
Xia Ning feels shocked to hear her words .
Su Shen didn’t tell her that .
However, the investigator is staring at her . If she shows any confusion, the investigator will find the problem!
“Maybe…” Xia Ning hesitates for a while, “Maybe Qianfu Jewelry didn’t want Secretary Yi to know it, so they do that to convince him . ”
The woman hears her words . She thinks for a while and asks, “Why did Qianfu Jewelry do that?”
Xia Ning blinks her eyes . Seemingly, under the current condition, she has to draw someone else into the case .
“Because I am very familiar with Mr . Su . That is why Qianfu Jewelry agreed to sell the adornment Flying Wing to Wing to me . ”
The investigators look at each other . What Xia Ning said seems reasonable . Now, they only need to check whether Xia Ning and Su Shen are really familiar with each other .
The investigator asks Xia Ning some other questions and then Xia Ning is permitted to leave the room .
Soon, Gu Ruoruo also comes out . Xia Ning finds Gu Ruoruo pale . She goes to hold her hands, “Don’t be afraid . My brother will be fine . Don’t worry . ”
Gu Ruoruo sees that Xia Ning is confident . She asks, “Sister Xia, why are you so sure?”
Xia Ning gently smiles, “Because I trust my brother and I trust the laws . I think my brother will be clear soon . ”

Gu Ruoruo takes a deep breath, “I hope Yi come back soon . I haven’t met him for two days . ”
“You silly, my brother is more worried than you . Ruoruo, you have to be strong . As long as you stay with my brother, there won’t be anything that you can’t get over . ”
Gu Ruoruo lifts to look at Xia Ning . She says meaningfully, “Sister Xia, you and Commander Yi will also be fine . ”
“Hum . Sure . ” All this life, she will always stay with Yi Yunrui!
Two days later, Yi Yunyi’s case is over . He is clear of suspicions and resumes his position . Anyway, he still needs to go through an inspection period of a month .
Gu Ruoruo is very happy on the day . She specially invites Xia Ning for dinner .
When Xia Ning arrives at the restaurant, she finds that besides her second elder brother, there are two other men there . One is Su Shen and the other is Gu Luan .
“Brother, Ruoruo, Director Gu, Mr . Su . ” Xia Ning greets them and takes a seat .
Gu Ruoruo happily passes the menu to Xia Ning, “Sister Xia, you may see what you want to eat . Everything is OK . You don’t need to save money for me”
Xia Ning smiles, “Do you arrange the dinner to thank me?”
Gu Ruoruo nods, “Sister Xia, you are naughty . You bought that adornment . Why didn’t you tell me? I thought it was sent by Yi . ”
“When I saw the adornment, I felt shocked . So, I called Mr . Su . Mr . Su said that Ruoruo liked it and he sent it to her . I asked Mr . Su for the price, or I would send it back to him . In the end, Mr . Su took one hundred thousand yuan for it . I didn’t expect that it would cause the case . ”
Yi Yunyi says . He glances at Su Shen, “to be honest, I was suspicious of Mr . Su at that time . I didn’t know that my sister-in-law had paid for it . So, I want to say sorry to Mr . Su . ”
“That’s all right, Secretary Yi . ” Su Shen says indifferently, “It is just a misunderstanding . ”
Xia Ning apologizes, “Brother, sorry . It is my fault . I didn’t tell you that . Some ill-intentioned men took the chance and brought the trouble to everyone . After this experience, I will be more careful in the future . ”

“It is not your fault . ” Gu Ruoruo still feels scared when she remembers it, “It is my fault . I didn’t take the identity and the post of Yi into consideration . I thought it was only a matter of an adornment and nothing else . It was my naughtiness which resulted in Yi’s being investigated for several days . ”
Gu Ruoruo holds Yi Yunyi’s hand, “Yi, sorry . I promise you . I will be more careful in the future . Without your permission, I won’t do any naughty things again . ”
Yi Yunyi gently smiles . He looks at her tenderly, “You may tell me directly whatever you like . I am old and stupid, not like you, you are young . Sometimes, I may fail to notice some things . ”
Gu Ruoruo smiles sweetly . She glances at her brother Gu Luan, who is silent . She slightly lifts her chin, “Brother, I told you . Yi is not someone like that! See? I warn you, if you dare to say anything bad about Yi again, I will be very angry with you…”
“Ruoruo . ” Yi Yunyi gently interrupts, “It is over . We may not talk about it again . Your brother was just worried about you . In addition, based on your personality, your interference might only make the situation more complicated . It is understandable . ”
Gu Ruoruo hears his words . She curls her lips and snorts at Gu Luan .
Gu Luan slightly lifts his lips to soften his face . Then, he takes up the teapot to pour a cup of tea for Xia Ning, “I was really wrong in this case . I will be careful in the future . Ning, have some tea . Thank you for taking care of my younger sister . ”
Xia Ning glances at the tea . She slowly responds, “Director Gu, they are my elder brother and sister-in-law . When anything happens to either of them, I will try everything to help them . It is my duty . So, Director Gu, you don’t need to thank me . ”
Gu Luan’s eyes slightly darken . But he keeps smiling, “Ning, didn’t you agree to call me Luan? It sounds too strange to call me Director Gu . ”
Xia Ning smiles . She doesn’t reply . Instead, she lowers her head to drink the tea .
It is a little awkward . Gu Ruoruo reminds them, “Sister Xia, let’s order the dishes . You may order whatever you like . Don’t save money for me . Or, I will be really angry . If I am displeased, Yi will be miserable . ”
“Ahem . ” Yi Yunyi makes a cough . He feels shocked with embarrassment to hear Gu Ruoruo’s words .
“OK . ” Xia Ning glances at Yi Yunyi, “Seemingly, someone’s purse is going to bleed tonight . ”
“It is its pleasure . ” Gu Ruoruo glances at Yi Yunyi, “Uncle Yi, do you need to have some herbal medical dishes to make it up?”
“Ha . Ha . Ha… You naughty girl!” Yi Yunyi laughs . He tenderly pinches Gu Ruoruo’s cheek .

They are talking and laughing while Su Shen and Gu Luan are lost in their meditation . They happen to see each other in the eyes when they lift their heads . It feels as if a sharp sword cuts across the air .
To satisfy Gu Ruoruo’s hospitality, Xia Ning deliberately orders quite some expensive specialties which fully occupy the table . Gu Ruoruo is in a good mood and eats a lot . Though there are a lot of dishes, they almost finish them .
In the middle of the dinner, Su Shen leaves for other issues . And then, Gu Luan leaves for another appointment, too . Xia Ning, Gu Ruoruo and Yi Yunyi stay .
Gu Ruoruo drinks a mouthful of watermelon juice . She makes a hiccup, “Great! It is an amazing dinner!”
Xia Ning smiles, “Are you full? If not, we may order some more dishes . ”
Gu Ruoruo waves her hand, “I am full . I have had enough tonight . I am thinking of losing some weight…”
“No . ” Yi Yunyi interrupts decisively, “If I find out you are losing weight, Ruoruo, you know the consequences . ”
Gu Ruoruo blushes . But her mouth doesn’t give in, “I am doing it . So what?”
“Ahem . ” Yi Yunyi makes a short cough . He says in a miserable voice, “Ruoruo, we have a company here . Can you save face for your husband?”
“Sister Xia is not an outsider . It is fine . Anyway, everyone knows that you are old . If I abandon you, no one will take you . Uncle Yi, do you want to have face or a wife?”
Yi Yunyi smiles to shake his head . He turns to Xia Ning, “Ning, did my mom call you?”
Xia Ning hesitates for a while . She shakes her head, “No . Ha . Ha . ”
Yi Yunyi looks at Xia Ning . He can guess the truth . He says, “Ning, my mom has been spoiled ever since she was young . She has a short temper . You may bear with her for some time . My younger brother will be back and you don’t need to worry about it again . ”
Xia Ning nods, “It is fine . Mom is just worried . ”
“Uncle Yi . ” Gu Ruoruo says worriedly, “Do you think Aunt Zheng will bring a woman to take you away on the day we get married? No way . I will have to make some preparation . ”
Yi Yunyi stares at her worriedly, “What preparation do you want to make? Tell me now . ”
Gu Ruoruo lifts her eyebrows and says mysteriously, “I don’t tell you! Hum . ”
It is a dark night . The waves clap on the bank . The air is cool with moisture .
Gu Luan smokes the cigarette and exhales a cloud slowly . He asks in a cold voice, “Was it your idea?”
A man is standing not far away from him . He dresses in white and looks handsome . He puts his hands into his pockets and responds, “Yes . ”
Gu Luan slightly screws his eyes, “Didn’t we have an agreement? Why did you do that?”
“Xia Ning came directly to me . She threatened me that if I didn’t help her, she would tell Yi Yunrui to deal with me . I couldn’t but agree . ”
Gu Luan feels nervous . He sounds colder, “How much does Ning know?”
Su Shen shrugs his shoulders, “Everything except the agreement between you and me . ”
Gu Luan gives a sigh of relief . Nevertheless, he is still worried, “Why did she go to you? Why did She say such heartless words to you?”
Su Shen glances at Gu Luan, “Mr . Gu, Qianfu Jewelry is a property of TC Group . It was reasonable that Xia Ning came to me . Why did she say heartless words to me? Didn’t she say just now? They were her elder brother and sister-in-law . When anything happened to either of them, she would try everything to help them . ”
Gu Luan feels shocked to hear the words!
Wait . Can Ning have found out the relationship between him and Su Shen?
She knows it . So, she deliberately said so in the dinner just now?
