Xia Ning smiles . She teases him, “What will Commander Yi do?”
Yi Yunrui is going to speak but is reminded of something . He shakes his head, “Not now . I will tell you everything after it is done . ”
Xia Ning rolls her eyes, “Military confidence again? Well . I am nobody . I’d better not ask about it to avoid violating the law…”
She has not finished the words when she is knocked gently at the forehead . She strokes her head and blinks one eye, “It hurts . Can I complain?”
“No . ” Yi Yunrui pulls her into his embrace . He says gently, “After leaving the hospital, will you go to C city with me at once?”
Xia Ning is moved . She nods, “It is time for me to go to World Era TV Station too . I should leave for C city . ”
Yi Yunrui frowns, “Not before you recover . ”
“I am fine . ” After having several bowls of porridge, Xia Ning gets back some of her strength and she speaks more, “I promised Director Gu that I would be there within ten days . Now it is the sixth day . I am an honest woman . I don’t want to leave a bad impression on Director Gu . ”
“Do you care much about what Director Gu think?”
Xia Ning blinks her eyes . She feels there is something unusual in Yi Yunrui’s words, “Rui, that is work . You are an army man . You know better what discipline is…”
“That is right . It needs discipline . But the condition is that you need to recover first . If not, even if you go to work, you cannot practice what you can . That is worse . Do you agree?”

Xia Ning gets stuck . What Commander Yi says is reasonable . She is not essential to the World Era TV Station . If she goes to work, she should go with a good spirit instead of illness .
Seeing Xia Ning doesn’t respond, Yi Yunrui continues, “I will talk to the World Era TV Station . You just be good and stay with me to have a rest during this time . ”
“How long will that be?”
Yi Yunrui signs slightly, “Who will risk their lives to work like you? Your head is hurt . At least, it takes half a month to recover . So, you have a good rest during this time . I will handle other things . ”
Xia Ning wants to argue . She opens her mouth but is stopped by him . She cannot but lean on his chest .
The Army Commander Yi is obstinate about this .
“Well, don’t argue . Lie down for a rest . ” Saying this, he helps her to lie down and holds her hands and sits by her quietly .
The infusion is going on . Xia Ning is tired . She wants to close her eyes but finds that Yi Yunrui’s eyes keep staring at her . She blushes and says, “Rui, will you not look at me in this way?”
Yi Yunrui lifts his eyebrows, “Don’t you like it?”
Xia Ning blushes and lowers her head .

God . What is she supposed to say?
She cannot say she doesn’t like it, but she also cannot say she likes it… She is shy…
“Your hands are cool . ” Yi Yunrui glances at the infusion . It is feeding anti-inflammatory . He strokes her face . It is also a little cool, “Are you cold?”
Xia Ning shakes her head, “I don’t feel cold . I am good . ”
Yi Yunrui looks at her quietly, as if he is thinking of something . Xia Ning glances at him . Seeing his serious eyes, she feels her heart jumps inside her chest . She closes her eyes at once .
With her eyes closed, she feels sleepy . Vaguely, she feels that he holds her into his embrace .
It is very warm and safe…
“Shh . ” Zheng Yao pulls her husband’s hand when he is going into the room and points inside, “Look . ”
Yi Xian looks through the crack of the door, puzzled . The young couple is embracing each other in sleep . He smiles, “Ah, they are good . ”
Seeing her son and daughter-in-law in the hospital bed, Zheng Yao is excited . It is like the scene in the war time decades ago, when she was hurt and her husband came back from the frontline . When he saw her, he did not speak a word but embraced her tightly .

Love sometimes needs no word .
Her son really loves Xia Ning . That is true love .
She might have some misunderstandings about Xia Ning in some things .
The girl has lost her parents . She is from an innocent family . If she is wronged, she can only bear it . If her husband’s family doesn’t care for her, she is miserable .
Zheng Yao is thinking and her hand is held tightly by her husband .
“Don’t disturb them . We may come again later . ” Saying this, he puts down the gifts by the door and leaves, carrying his wife’s hand .
“Xian, do you think… that as the mother-in-law I am too atrocious?”
Yi Xian looks at her, “Not atrocious, but you are too suggestible . You are also frank . However, these are what I like . I like your personality . ”
Zheng Yao smiles and hits him with her fist, “Atrociousness is atrociousness . You say it tactfully . Ah…you are right . Rui is our son . We know him best . We should also trust Xia Ning . To be honest, what is said in the newspaper still makes me uncomfortable . I am a little worried . ”
“In fact, there is one thing that your son has never mentioned to you . It is time now . Let me tell you . ”
Zheng Yao frowns, “What is the secret you hide from me? Do you have a bear gut?”
“How dare I?” Yi Xian turns to embrace his wife, “Actually that report in the newspaper was arranged by Jingyao . ”
Zheng Yao is shocked and stunned . After a while, she asks, “You knew it before . Why didn’t you tell me?”
“How could we tell you?” Yi Xian smiles and shakes his head, “You treated Jingyao as your daughter . Even if we said something, you would consider it as a false accusation . If it were not handled well, you would scold us for not being decent . Ah…”
Seeing her husband smile honestly, Zheng Yao is warm, and unconsciously, her eyes flashes with tears .
So, it is the truth…
Even though they knew the truth, even though she did the wrong thing, her husband and her son still quietly cared for her feelings…
“Yao, I know you don’t like your daughter-in-law, but it is the kids’ own matter . We may not bother about that . Let them handle it . I believe, the most important thing is that everyone in the family is happy…”
“Who says I don’t like Ning?” Not waiting for Yi Xian to finish, Zheng Yao interrupts angrily, “That is a misunderstanding! I am wrong . I misunderstood her . I, her mother-in-law, will find a time to apologize to her . I tell you, Xian, don’t speak nonsense in front of Ning . There is no such thing of my liking this or not liking that . I like both my son and my daughter-in-law . I care for both of them!”
Yi Xian doesn’t expect that his wife will be so excited . He is shocked . He is stunned for a few seconds and then he nods, “All right . All right . I say the wrong words . I am a dotard . I should not break the harmony of our family . I am sorry to you, to our family and to the Party and to the people…”
“Oops, you may shut up!” Zheng Yao rolls her eyes at him, “After Ning gets recovered, I am thinking of asking Rui and her to come home . We will have dinner together . We may start over again . Ah, what do you think?”
“Good . It is good, of course . I agree . ” Yi Xian nods seriously .
Son, your father’s strategy works .
