Chapter 474 - Break Your Poker Face (1/2)

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.
