“You’ve gone to C City?”
Xia Ning is slightly surprised . There is something wrong in Li Baoer’s tone . She doesn’t sound as active as before . Instead, it implies some other emotions .
“Hum, I am in C City . Sorry . I don’t feel well these days, so I didn’t inform you . ”
“Oh . Commander Yi also went back?”
“Yes . ”
It is silent for a while . Then, Li Baoer says, “Xia Ning, I want to tell you that Ou Yixuan is not the director now . ”
“What? What happened?” Ou Yixuan is not the director . He has fought many years to earn this position!
“It is said that it has something to do with the incident related with you . Chairman Xiao is going to have an interior clean-up, so he is told to have a long holiday . ”
“Well . How is he now?”
“Are you worried about him?”
“I am just curious . After all, I know him for a long time . ”
“Oh . I am afraid that you still care for him . You scare me! He deserves it . Well, I have another thing to tell you . ”
Xia Ning rolls her eyes, “Miss Li, when did you become so irresolute?”
“I am decisive in this thing! I quitted . I am not working in TIME now . ”
Xia Ning is shocked, “Quitted? Do your parents know it?”
Gosh . The income of Li Baoer’s family is not good, and it totally depends on her . Why did she quit her job?
“They know . After that incident, I think my life is more important . B City is too complicated and I dare not to stay there any longer . Anyway, with my ability, I can work anywhere . I may go somewhere else to work . ”
Xia Ning thinks for a while, “Do you want to work in C City? I am worrying that I don’t have any friends here . If you come here, we will be together again . ”

“Miss Xia, Director Gu only admires you . Besides, there are so many talents in World Era TV Station . You know, I don’t have a good education background, so they will not have me . ”
“When did you get to belittle yourself? Who knows what will happen in the future? Have a try first . Come to C City . You can try to hunt for a job . At least, you have me here . Don’t you?”
Li Baoer is quiet at the other end for quite a while . Then she takes a deep breath and says, “OK . Xia Ning . I agree with what you said . Even if the sky falls down, I gotta have a try first . I am coming tomorrow . You don’t hate my disturbing!”
“It is silly . I am happy that you can come . I will not hate you bothering me . When you arrive tomorrow, call me and I will go to pick you up . Well, do you have any place to stay in C City?”
“I have a classmate there . I will stay at her house for some days . After I get a job, I will move out to rent a house . ”
“That will do . See you tomorrow . ” Although the house here is big, she is married and it is not convenient to have her here . It’s good to arrange like this for now .
“Good . Well, bye . ”
Li Baoer hangs up . Xia Ning smiles and puts her phone away .
“Is she coming tomorrow?” Yi Yunrui asks .
Xia Ning nods, “It was the kidnapping that influences her because of me . She is really not very happy working in Time these years . It may be better for her to have a change . I am really sorry for her . ”
Yi Yunrui reaches his hand to stroke her forehead, “Li Baoer is a nice person . I am happy for you that she can come to C City . ”
Xia Ning’s eyes brighten, “Rui, do you agree, too?” She was worrying that Yi Yunrui might not agree with that .
“You Little Fool, that is your friend . In addition, when I am not at home, you don’t have to stay alone now . Well . Are you going to pick her up tomorrow?”
“Hum . ”
Yi Yunrui thinks for a while and says, “I am going to have a meeting tomorrow and will not have time for the whole day… Well, Dai Zhongheng happens to go to the airport tomorrow . I will ask him to drive you there . ”
“It is no need . I may feel embarrassed to have Colonel Dai pick us up especially . ”
“It is fine . I will arrange it . ” Yi Yunrui pulls her to the bed and opens the quilt, “Come here to have a rest . Lunch will be ready when you wake up . ”
It seems that the Army Commander is going to prepare lunch for her…

Xia Ning blinks her eyes, “Don’t you need to go to the Military Region today?”
“Hum . I will stay with you . ” Saying this, he helps her take off the coat .
“Then…will you show me around downtown after lunch?” Tomorrow, Li Baoer will arrive . She wants to get familiar with the place first .
“OK . ” Yi Yunrui responds quickly and helps her lie down .
The bed is big, soft and smells good . What is surprised is that she doesn’t feel sleepy, but she wants to close her eyes once lying down . She gives a great yawn .
Yi Yunrui looks at her lovingly with a pampering smile and covers the quilt for her .
He can’t help stroking her hair and looking at her for quite a while before he walks away .
Yi Yunrui glances at the clock on the wall . It is ten o’clock . He walks to the living room and opens the refrigerator when his phone rings . He looks at the phone . It is from the Military Region .
He frowns slightly and presses the button, “Hello, Commander . ”
“You come back to C City? It is good . I am calling you to inform you of one thing . Political Commissar Xue is transferred to another department . A new political commissar is appointed to you . Seemingly you are familiar with each other…”
Xia Ning is awakened by the flavor of food . She opens her eyes . Smelling the flavor in the house, she feels her belly is crying for food .
She dresses up and walks out of the bedroom . The tall man is busy in the kitchen . She walks to the kitchen and stands behind him .
It is said that a man is most attractive when he is working hard . In her opinion, a cooking man is more attractive . Standing behind Yi Yunrui quietly, she looks at him quietly, lost in the scene .
The last dish is done . Yi Yunrui turns off the fire, turns to her and leads her to the running water .
He turns on the water, which is warm . He washes her hands carefully, “You have to wash your hand before eating . That is what a good kid does . ”
Xia Ning laughs when hearing what Yi Yunrui says, “Mom, I know . I will wash my hands before eating . ”
Yi Yunrui pauses and turns to her, “What are you calling me?”
“No, nothing . ” Xia Ning pulls back her hands quickly . When she wants to wipe her hands, she finds the towels hanging on the wall are sharply white . She wonders which one is hers .

Yi Yunrui brings a towel to her . There is a snoopy printed on the towel . Xia Ning senses the embarrassment on her face .
Seemingly the great Army Commander treats her as a child .
He helps Xia Ning wipe her hands and hangs the towel . Then he holds out his hand and hugs her in his arms, “Tell me . What did you call me?”
Xia Ning forces a smile, “No… not really . Commander, you heard wrong . ”
“The commander couldn’t hear wrong . Comrade Xia Ning, tell me the truth . Resistance will result in severe punishment . ” Saying this, Yi Yunrui pinches her face softly .
“Can I appeal to higher class? You cannot force me to confess!”
“Force you to confess?” A smile of burlesque flashes in Yi Yunrui’s eyes, “You remind me . How can I forget this?”
Saying this, Yi Yunrui lowers his head and kisses the cutie in his embrace…
He was thinking of just giving her a little “punishment”, but once his lips touch hers, he feels her lips are just like a magnet, which made him get stuck with his . He simply cannot move his lips away from the soft and sweet ones .
Hugged by him tightly, Xia Ning can take no resisting actions . The intimate contact of their lips causes a warm flow in her body . She gets weak and leans on his chest, unconsciously responding to his kiss .
“Hum…” A soft cry from the throat shocks Yi Yunrui!
As if having made a big decision, Yi Yunrui closes his eyes . Though reluctantly, his lips leave hers . He takes a deep breath .
The desire flame is burning inside his body . If he doesn’t call a stop, they will have no lunch .
“I…take the food outside . ” His low voice is a little hoarse . Yi Yunrui gives her a hug and turns to take the dish away .
Xia Ning leans on the wall . Her face is red, still panting with desire .
Half closing her eyes, Xia Ning looks blankly at Yi Yunrui, while he goes in and out and then finally goes to her and pinches her face softly .
“You Little Fool, what are you thinking of? We should have lunch . ”
Yi Yunrui says . Xia Ning sees him pass in a flash and she is already carried by him to the living room in the next second .
C City is a centrally administered municipality . It is much more prosperous than B City . Yi Yunrui shows Xia Ning around many shopping malls and commercial streets .
They planned to be walking around, so they didn’t take Yi Yunrui’s monster car . After walking for two hours, Xia Ning is tired . They go to a coffee house and sit for a rest .
The shop clerk goes to them and politely asks, “What would you like to have?”
“A cup of cappuccino . ” Yi Yunrui responds without thinking or looking at the menu .
Xia Ning blinks her eyes and smiles, “Two cups of hot cappuccino . ”
“OK . What else would you like to have?”
Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning glance at each other . Xia Ning shakes her head, “It is enough for now . ”
“Wait . ” Yi Yunrui opens the menu and points at one of the photos, “Two pieces of tiramisu . ”
“OK . In a minute . ” The clerk leaves .
Soon, the coffee and tiramisu are served . Xia Ning takes a bite of the cake . She curiously looks at Yi Yunrui, “Excuse me . Commander, the cake is very sweet . Is it OK for you to eat?”
Yi Yunrui looks at her lovingly and takes a bite, too, “The Commander feels good . Sweetie, don’t worry . ”
Xia Ning can’t help laughing . Suddenly she finds that Yi Yunrui is quietly staring at her . She is so shy . She blushes and turns her face away .
As a matter of fact, Yi Yunrui is a very handsome man . When they walk in the street, all the attention is attracted by him . She was not aware of that before . Now, looking at him face to face, she finds that he is really charming .
Her heart beats so quickly…
“Excuse me, would you mind my sitting here?”
A charismatic female voice rings . As if it is a thunder on the sunny day, Xia Ning is at once shocked to silence . ”
It is her…it is her…that is the voice .
Xia Ning’s brain is blank . Her hand holding the cup shakes and the coffee pours out . But she does not realize that at all…
