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 . ”
