Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband-Chapter 474 - Break Your Poker Face

Chapter 474 Break Your Poker Face

Go to the military region now?

Seemingly, it is very urgent. Can there be any important visitors coming…

“OK. I will go with Ning now.”

Yi Yunrui hangs up the phone. At this time, the doorbell rings. Yi Yunrui goes to open the door and finds Zhang Hai standing straightly outside. He salutes Yi Yunrui, “Commander, I have got the car ready! When can you and Mrs. Yi go?”

Yi Yunrui looks at Zhang Hai. He twitches his lips, realizing that the boy even got the information earlier than him!

Fifteen minutes later, Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning arrive at the military region.

They have just arrived at the region while Yi Yunrui finds the atmosphere very abnormal there.

It feels extremely serious and alerting.

The numbers of guards and patrol soldiers are both doubled or even more. They stand all the way from the entry to the Commander’s Office.

Based on his previous experience, there is absolutely a very important visitor here.

Xia Ning can obviously feel the solemnity of the air. Unconsciously, she holds her husband’s hand tightly.

It seems that something is going to happen.

Yi Yunrui and his wife get off the car. The guards on both sides of the road salute at once. They act so precisely the same as if they are robots.

Xia Ning blinks her eyes in surprise. To be honest, it is the first time for her to see such a scene.

She feels a little nervous. It looks solemn while her husband holds her hand here, which seems kind of humiliating the dignity of Commander Yi Yunrui.

Therefore, she tries to loosen her hand, but Yi Yunrui holds her even more tightly.

They arrive at the Commander’s office. The door is open. There are many guards inside. They look as motionless as wax figures.

However, the person sitting at the commander’s desk is a strange man.

He is in his sixties. His eyes are bright and powerfully sharp. He just sits there, while people around can unconsciously feel the pressure which is so overwhelming that they can hardly breathe. He wears a military uniform. However, the uniform is obviously different from that of Commander Xie’s. On the uniform, there are no logos, title marks, or any decorations. Xia Ning knows that people in this kind of uniform are always in superior positions.

Commander Xie sits beside the man. When he sees Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning, he stands up to greet them with a smile, “Rui, Ning, here you are. Let me introduce. This is Commander Gu Anguo, Deputy Minister of National Security Department. Minster Gu, this is Commander Yi and his wife, Xia Ning.”

Xia Ning is shocked blankly to hear the title!

God! The man is a ministerial official!

Yi Yunrui politely salutes Minister Gu, “Commander!”

Gu Anguo nods, “Commander Yi, we have met several times.” Then, he holds out his hand to Xia Ning, “Hello, Ms. Xia.”

Xia Ning feels her heartbeats out of control. She trembles her hand to hold hands with Minister Gu, “Commander, nice to meet you.”

Wait. Gu Anguo, Minister Gu…Is he Gu Luan’s father?

They sit down. A guard makes tea for them. Gu Anguo takes up the tea for a sip.

Commander Xie says, “Rui. It is reported that some further information is found out about Ms. Tang’s case. Minister Gu is here to cooperate with you in the investigation.”

Yi Yunrui’s eyes gleam. He briefly responds, “Yes. Understand. Commander, I will cooperate well with you.”

Gu Anguo slightly lifts his lips, “Boy, you don’t need to be so serious. The management requires us to close this case as soon as possible. I am not here to give orders. Instead, I am here to cooperate with you to investigate the case. You are over cautious. It makes me feel a little uneasy.”

Not waiting for Yi Yunrui to respond, Commander Xie explains, “Minister Gu, to be honest, Rui is not being over cautious. He is always like this. He looks cool, always with the so-called poker face. I hope you can forgive him.”

Gu Anguo takes a sip of the tea again. He smiles, but doesn’t speak. He turns to look at Xia Ning. Some special emotions flash in the deep of his eyes. He puts on a bigger smile, “Mrs. Yi, Rui is a talent of the nation and a model of the army. You have an excellent eye and you are talented, too.”

Being praised by Minister Gu, Xia Ning feels shy, “Minister Gu, I feel flattered…”

“Luan often mentioned you. He said that you were a good girl. You were pretty, kind-hearted and capable. I was very curious about you. Now, we meet here today. Luan was right.”

It is confirmed that Gu Anguo is Gu Luan’s father. However, the words Minister Gu may sound fine to other people. But what will Yi Yunrui think?

Xia Ning freezes her smile. She stealthily glances at Yi Yunrui.

“We don’t have strangers here. I may speak frankly.” Gu Anguo turns to Yi Yunrui, “To be honest, I don’t agree with Luan about his job. It is too dangerous and has to deal with too much trouble. As a father, I have been always trying to persuade him to change his job. Now, he finally agrees. Anyway, I heard that Mrs. Yi would take over his previous position.”

Gu Anguo slightly pauses here before he continues, “It is hard to be the director of World Era Weekly. Commander Yi, as a senior, I may give you some advice. In the days to come, you may need to take better care of Mrs. Yi.”

Gu Anguo implies a lot of information in his brief speeches. Xia Ning hears his words and feels nervous. She is unsure about Minister Gu’s attitudes towards Gu Luan and Yi Yunrui. She is unsure about what he thinks of her, either.

Yi Yunrui nods, he says indifferently, “Minister Gu, thank you for your reminding. Ning is my wife. I will take care of her.”

It feels a little weird. Commander Xie glances at Gu Anguo and Yi Yunrui. He takes a sip of tea and makes a cough. He says, “I am surprised that Minister Gu is so considerate. Seemingly, you and Rui and Ning are all acquaintances. Ha. Ha. It is good. It is good…”

At this time, the sounds of high heel shoes’ hitting the floor are heard. Someone is coming to them. Commander Xie and Minister Gu glance at each other. They stand up at the same time.

Soon, a woman with an attractive body shape enters the office. She is a real beauty. When Xia Ning sees her, she feels so surprised that she opens her mouth widely.

It is Tang Qieying coming in!

“Ha! I knew it. You must be here.” Tang Qieying cries happily. She holds out her hand and says, “Commander Xie, Minister Gu, Commander Yi.”

Tang Qieying shakes hands with all the men. Then, she goes to Xia Ning and pauses. She suddenly freezes her smile and puts her hands behind.

Seeing this, Xia Ning feels shocked. She stands up at once and bows seriously to Tang Qieying, “Ms. Tang, I am terribly sorry.”

Normally, as a woman involved in the indecent photo case, while the photos were spread, she must suffer from a lot of humiliating criticisms. However, Tang Qieying smiled when she entered the office. It didn’t seem that she was influenced by the case at all!

Xia Ning is proved to have no direct relation to the case. However, it was still the mistake of her and World Era Week to cause the trouble. She is still responsible for that, though not in the main part.

It is absolutely reasonable that Tang Qieying feels angry to see her here.

When Yi Yunrui sees Xia Ning bow, he slightly frowns. His calm eyes look a little worried.

Tang Qieying cocks her head motionlessly. She doesn’t speak a word, showing no clues about what she is thinking about.

Xia Ning feels more nervous. If it goes on like this, she may need to kneel down and beg for mercy instead of bowing to say sorry.

It is silent in the Commander’s Office. Xia Ning keeps bowing while Tang Qieying gives no reactions. After quite a while, Yi Yunrui unconsciously clenches his hands.

“Ha. Ha. Ha!” Suddenly, Tang Qieying laughs loudly. She says, “Ning, you may stand up. Ha. Ha…it is funny. Well. It is correct! Ning is the only person who can break Commander Yi’s poker face!”

Then, Tang Qieying goes to Yi Yunrui. She teases him, “Commander Yi, I finally find out your weak point! Ahem. You may try to pretend in front of me again! I warn you. Next time, if you show me the poker face again, your wife will suffer for that! Ha!”

Yi Yunrui twitches his eyebrows. Tang Qieying is threatening him in this way!

Hearing Tang Qieying’s warning, Yi Yunrui helplessly gives a sigh. He looks at his wife tenderly and responds, “Ms. Tang, please have some mercy!”

“Ha. Ha. Commander Yi, you will also ask for mercy! Well. I said it. You would ask for mercy from me one day!” Tang Qieying teases. She holds Xia Ning’s hand and says, “Sit down. Let’s sit down. Don’t stand here. You are pregnant. Ning, you have to forgive me. I said the words many years ago. You don’t know. Your husband was hard to get along with at that time. He always looked so serious as if we all owed him some money.”

Yi Yunrui feels very embarrassed, wondering whether what she said is true.

Tang Qieying holds out her hand to stroke Xia Ning’s belly, “How many months now?”

“Almost two months.” There is a life being created inside. Every time, when Xia Ning talks about her pregnancy, she smiles sweetly.

“Well. Well.” Tang Qieying shakes her head, “That is great. It is happiness itself! Ha. Commander Yi, you are going to be a dad in eight months. Don’t put on that motionless face. You may scare your kid!”

Yi Yunrui feels speechless. Ms. Tang seems to speak against him all the time today.

He doesn’t remember that he has ever had any conflicts with Ms. Tang… except for his motionless face she mentioned.

Tang Qieying holds Xia Ning’s hand. She says, “Ning, let’s have a walk outside. I haven’t met you for a long time. I have a lot to catch up with you!”

Not waiting for Xia Ning to respond, Tang Qieying turns to Yi Yunrui, “Commander Yi, I want to take your wife away. I will return her back to you soon. Don’t worry. I will take care of her.” Then, Tang Qieying draws Xia Ning and goes outwards.

Xia Ning can’t but turn around to say goodbye to her husband with her eyes.

After the two women leave, the Commander’s office becomes quiet. Commander Xia is a very clever man. He covers his tea cup and says, “Minister Gu, Rui, I go to change my tea. I also need to go to the washing room…Ah. Excuse me. I am an old man. A troublesome one. Minister Gu, excuse me.”

Then, Commander Xie takes the tea cup and leaves. As if he remembers something, Commander Xie turns around to the guards inside the office, “You boys, go with me. You look scary standing silently here. Come with me.”

The guards around hear Commander Xie shout at them. They feel confused and glance at each other. They find Minister Gu and Commander Yi not respond. They understand at once. They follow Commander Xie and leave the office.
