Chapter 170 Shareholder? Owner?!
When Xia Ning finishes her work, it is already past four in the afternoon. She drinks the coffee prepared by Gu Ruoruo and stares at the time on the computer.
She said that she would reply to Gu Luan at five.
To go, or not to go?
As a matter of fact, she is very clear that this is a business meeting. But she is also clear about Gu Luan’s feelings towards her.
Something starts and she can’t allow it to continue.
She can hold in, but she is afraid that some people can’t.
If she goes with him, what kind of identity should she take?
Who can be convinced if she says that she is only Gu Luan’s subordinate and the director of entertainment department?
Gu Luan’s friends may be very decent, but she can’t guarantee that some people will not look at her doubtfully.
In addition, she is a married woman...Last evening, Yi Yunrui was so angry. If she does this again in the evening...
Xia Ning is aware that it is five. She puts down the coffee cup and takes up the handset of the office phone.
When she has just finished the last figure, she hears a knock at the door.
Xia Ning is surprised. Then, she sees Gu Ruoruo come in. Gu Ruoruo is shy. Her face is red. There are voices of discussion and admiration. It is noisy outside.
It is strange. What happens there?
“Director Xia,” Gu Ruoruo blinks her eyes, “Someone, someone is looking for you.” She points outwards.
Xia Ning slightly lifts her head and she is so surprised that she opens her mouth when she sees the tall and strong man.
He is over 1.8-meter tall, wearing the green army uniform. He looks like a dignified king with a firm and handsome face. He is a combination of power and beauty. What an overwhelming shock!
Xia Ning is aware that when Commander Yi shows up here, even the large and fashionable office building seems to be shocked by his powerful entrance.
Yi Yunrui’s sharp eyes look at Xia Ning who is shocked in surprise. He lifts his lips: “Sweetheart, I am here to pick you up.”
His deep and magnetic voice sounds as if it goes straightly into Xia Ning’s soul. Xia Ning loosens her hand and the handset falls onto the desk.
Gu Ruoruo stands there, unbelievably looking at them with her beautiful big eyes.
A clear crash shocks Xia Ning suddenly. She realizes how she looked just now is like an idiot!
“Ahem!” Xia Ning embarrassedly makes a cough and collects herself. She deliberately tries not to look at Yi Yunrui, the deadly handsome man.
She waves her hand at Gu Ruoruo: “I know. You may go to work.”
“Oh...” Gu Ruoruo can’t help giving more glances at Yi Yunrui. She turns to leave.
God. Sons of Yi Family are all so unbelievably handsome!
The office door is closed. Yi Yunrui goes to sit in front of Xia Ning. His sharp eyes straightly look at her: “Sweetheart. There is still half an hour to go. Am I right?”
Xia Ning stealthily looks at him and finds that he is looking at her with his charming eyes. She unconsciously swallows her saliva: “Oh. Yes.”
She has been married Yi Yunrui for over two years. However, he is so handsome that she still has no resistance to him at all.
On the contrary, she tends to be more and more attached to him.
“I may sit here for half an hour. Will I disturb your work?”
“No. No.” Xia Ning shakes her head.
Who can say no? With such a handsome man around, it is impossible for her not to be distracted!
Yi Yunrui blinks his eyes which seem to tell love. He smiles and looks at her quietly.
He looks at her as if he is appreciating the most important precious.
“Ring.”
The office phone rings, which shocks Xia Ning. She suddenly remembers that she has not called Gu Luan!
She picks up the handset. Gu Luan’s voice is heard: “Director Xia, have you made the decision?”
Xia Ning glances at Yi Yunrui: “Hum. I have made a decision. I am busy this evening. Sorry. I can’t go.”
Not waiting for Gu Luan to respond, Xia Ning hangs up.
Yi Yunrui glances at the phone: “Are you going to work overtime this evening?”
Xia Ning shakes her head: “No. No need. We can go home soon.”
“Sweetheart,” Yi Yunrui leans to her, “I reserved a booth in Lung King Heen. I wonder if you would like to go there with me for dinner.”
Lung King Heen?
The other Michelin three-star restaurant in C City!
“Well...” To be honest, it was the first time for her to go to the restaurant of this level last evening. Foods were really astonishingly expensive!
Yi Yunrui is aware of Xia Ning’s hesitation. He is confused: “Well? Any problems?”
Xia Ning blinks her eyes. She thinks for a while and says: “Darling, you may think that I ruin the mood. Foods in Lung King Heen are really very expensive.”
Yi Yunrui is surprised. Then at once he laughs happily, “You Silly, we don’t need to pay to eat there.”
Xia Ning is confused: “Don’t need to pay?”
Yi Yunrui gently pats on her hand: “We go there and you will know soon. What is the time?”
“Ah. Office hour is over.” It is very strange. It is time to leave. Xia Ning quickly turns off the computer and takes up her bag.
Yi Yunrui holds her hand. He says gently: “Sweetheart, you don’t need to save money for me. I know it very well.”
“Oh...” Xia Ning responds in a low voice. Yi Yunrui holds her hand and leads her out.
All the way, her colleagues look at them with envy and jealousy. Xia Ning realizes Commander Yi can be really high-profile sometimes.
In the elevator, they met Gu Luan who is also leaving the office.
The two excellent men come together. They stand there and are equally attractive.
They are so noticeable that there are a lot of “fans” gathering around them.
“Director Gu, my husband comes to pick me up.” Xia Ning blushes, “I am sorry for the appointment this evening.”
Gu Luan wears a mild smile on his face. It can’t tell what he is thinking about. He says: “It is all right. We will make another time.”
When Gu Luan is saying the words, he looks straightly at Yi Yunrui.
The two men look at each other, as if crashes are heard in the air. It smells like gunpowder.
Gu Luan smiles, but the smile looks like a vague challenge.
They stare at each other for a while. The elevator is arriving. Yi Yunrui slowly says: “Director Gu, my wife and I are going for dinner in Lung King Heen. Do you like to join us?”
Hearing this, Gu Luan’s smile slightly freezes. But he returns to normal very soon: “Thank you. I have another appointment this evening. I may not disturb the romantic dinner of Commander Yi and Director Xia.”
At the time, the door of the elevator opens. They go in. Xia Ning stands in front of Yi Yunrui. Yi Yunrui reaches to hold her into his embrace.
Gu Luan stands by them. He blinks his eyes.
Inside the elevator, when Yi Yunrui and Gu Luan are having the small mental fight, someone in the corner slightly lowers her head and clenches her fists.
This is the man. This is Yi Yunrui...
Yi Yunrui’s giant vehicle Knight XV is parked by the building. The black monster attracts a lot of attention. Yi Yunrui holds Xia Ning’s hand and gets in the car under the stares with envy and jealousy of many people.
The driver is new. He has bright eyes and graceful eyebrows. He looks very young. When he sees Xia Ning, he greets: “Hello, Mrs. Yi. My name is Zhang Hai. I am Commander Yi’s new correspondent.”
Xia Ning nods: “How do you do.”
“Hai, go to Lung King Heen.”
“Yes, Sir.”
The black monster roars fast on the road. Xia Ning finds that Zhang Hai looks elegant, but he acts and speaks in a mature way. He doesn’t speak much, but his eyes are sharp.
Soon, the car stops in front of the five-star luxurious gate of Lung King Heen.
Being different from the restaurant introduced by Gu Luan, Lung King Heen’s decoration tends to show the royal greatness of a big country. And the sense of magnificence can be found everywhere.
Looking that the royal resplendence, Xia Ning feels her heart beating violently.
She wears a professional suit and comes here for dinner. Will that look rude?
The manger and the clerks in the restaurant see Yi Yunrui. They all walk to him and bow politely: “Commander Yi, welcome.”
Yi Yunrui nods and says to them: “This is my wife, Xia Ning.”
“Hello, Mrs. Yi.”
Yi Yunrui leads Xia Ning to a booth by the wall with a good scene. Xia Ning sits down. She finds that she can see half of the C City.
They have just sat down when there is another man walking to them. The man is dressed very formally. He is a little fat. He smiles kindly.
Seeing the man, all the clerks greet: “General Manager He.”
He Niansheng nods. He comes to Yi Yunrui, saying: “Commander Yi, I haven’t seen you for a long time. This beautiful lady must be your wife.”
Yi Yunrui nods: “Hum. My wife, Xia Ning.”
“How do you do. Mrs. Yi.” Saying this, He Niansheng bows to Xia Ning.
What he does surprises Xia Ning greatly.
This man is the General Manager of the restaurant. Why does he bow to her?
Xia Ning is confused. At the time, He Niansheng waves his hand at the others and all the clerks leave.
“Commander Yi, Mrs. Yi.” He Niansheng says politely, “Recently, we promoted some new dishes which customers gave nice comments. Would Commander Yi and Mrs. Yi do us a favor to check the chef’s techniques?”
Seeing that He Niansheng is so polite to them, Xia Ning feels more confused. She looks at Yi Yunrui.
Yi Yunrui slowly responds: “It depends on my wife.”
“Yes.” He Niansheng at once asks Xia Ning, “What do you think, Mrs. Yi?”
“Oh...” New dishes? How many of them? Does that mean all will be brought to them for tasting?
Being aware of Xia Ning’s confusion, Yi Yunrui says: “Sweetheart, when they serve the dishes, you only need to take a bite of each one.”
Take a bite of each dish? Then, how many?
At the time, a clerk sends the menu to Xia Ning. Yi Yunrui says to He Niansheng: “I would like to ask my wife to choose some other dishes. You can serve the latest dishes, one portion of each.”
“OK. Commander Yi, Mrs. Yi, I may leave for now.”
Xia Ning looks at Mr. He’s leaving in surprise. She asks: “Darling, this is...”
“Sweetheart, I am one of the shareholders of this restaurant, kind of an owner.”
Hearing this, Xia Ning is shocked blankly.
God. So far, she has found that Yi Yunrui is a big shareholder of several international high end restaurants. Are there any other things about Commander Yi which she doesn’t know?
Well...How many properties does Yi Yunrui have? This is really far beyond the concept of being a commander!
