Chapter 141 Listen to Your Breath (1/2)

“Dad, Rui is very busy. He sent me several messages these days. I don’t want to disturb him, so my replies are very simple.”

“Hum.” Yi Xian nods, “There are military exercises every year. The purpose is to test the fighting capability of the troops. This time, Rui commands the exercises in person. It seems that he is giving general guidance to the regional military department. He is really busy.”

Yi Xian’s speech is brief, but Xia Ning is shocked in surprise.

Giving guidance to the regional military department?

In an instant, Xia Ning’s heart beats violently and an unprecedented sense of pride rises in her heart.

“Dad, how many people are there in a regional military department?” Xia Ning tentatively asks.

“Those who can go to the military exercises are all troops of elites. They fight in regiments and there are quite some regiments in a regional military department. We can’t estimate the population. If you really want to know, as for military exercises, there may be tens of thousands of people.”

Xia Ning is shocked blankly. She knows the military exercises rule, the tens of thousands of people are all elites. It is not surprising that people use the word “legendary” to describe Yi Yunrui.

Iron-blood commander, cool and ruthless… all these were judgments for Yi Yunrui before she knew him. But after getting along with him, she has never found Yi Yunrui cool, ruthless or iron-blood.

Wait. If other people know that Yi Yunrui is nice at home, will his reputation be hurt?

She knows that Yi Yunrui’s tenderness and intenseness are for her only. Yi Yunrui changes a lot for her. It is really not easy.

So, she will work hard, too. At least, she needs to take up the expected responsibility of a wife.

“Ning?” Seeing Xia Ning is silent, Yi Xian says, “Don’t think too much. Dad knows Rui. No matter how many people there are in front of him, he is not going to change.”

Xia Ning is slightly confused. Seemingly, her father-in-law misunderstood her.

“No. Dad, you misunderstood me. To be honest, I feel I did poorly as a wife. I am thinking how to improve myself so that he doesn’t need to be burdened with me so much.”

“Well, you can have a baby to make Rui relieved.” Not waiting for Yi Xian to speak, Zheng Yao interrupts, “Ning, let me tell you a secret. Rui looks very serious. Actually, he likes children very much. You two may not delay. Go to have a baby. Anyway, you are going to have one sooner or later.”

Xia Ning hears to her and blushes. She lowers her head, wishing to have a hole for her to hide.

Having a baby…

The moon is shining in the night sky. Xia Ning stands at the balcony. It is past one in the midnight, but she can’t fall asleep.

The night wind blows her clothes and black hairs and brings a little cold.

It is the first time in over two years for her to be away from Yi Yunrui. She feels empty in her heart.

Xia Ning looks at the black sky far away. She misses Yi Yunrui very much.

She wonders what Yi Yunrui is doing at the time.

She holds her phone tightly and gives a sigh.

She wants to send him a message, but she is afraid that she may wake him up. At this time, is he sleeping?

She still remembers when they had just got married, she tried to get away from him every night. Now, he has just been away for one day, while she misses him so much.

Xia Ning can’t help laughing at herself. She looks at the screen of the phone.

She hasn’t received any messages from him. Xia Ning lies if she says that she isn’t worried about him.

She really wants to listen to his deep voice. Even one word will do.

“The most romantic thing I can imagine is to be getting old slowly with you…”

Her phone suddenly rings and scares Xia Ning. Her hands tremble. The phone is almost dropped.

Looking at the familiar name on the screen, Xia Ning is so happy that she almost jumps up. A call from Yi Yunrui!

Xia Ning’s heart beats rapidly all of a sudden. She takes several deep breaths to get her mood stabilized before she presses the answer button, “Darling, haven’t you gone to bed so late?”

“I can’t fall asleep. I want to hear your voice.”

Yi Yunrui’s deep voice sounds tired, which makes Xia Ning worried.

Unconsciously, she slightly lifts her lips and goes back to the bed, “Are you busy there? Take some rest if it is possible. Don’t be too tired. There are still more than twenty days to go.”

“Hum…”

Then, both Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning don’t speak and it gets quiet at once.
