Chapter 490 - This Is Not A Battlefield. (1/2)
“Darling.” Xia Ning holds Yi Yunrui’s hand, “Was I mean to say those words to our brother?”
“Oh?” Yi Yunrui feels amused, “What did you say?”
“I said…”
“Ha. Ha.” Yi Yunrui rubs his wife’s nose, “It is all right. My brother likes money and a kind of people, his enemies!”
“Enemies?” Xia Ning wonders why he likes enemies.
“It is because of his enemies, especially the powerful ones that our eldest brother has grown up to be what he is now. Therefore, our brother is positive about having enemies. Sweetheart, I may repeat. You don’t need to worry about anything. If our eldest brother takes any actions against you, you may directly fight back as powerfully as you can. However, don’t give yourself too much pressure. Don’t forget that you have a husband right here for you.”
Xia Ning nods. She suddenly remembers something and asks, “Is that OK? Will it bring conflicts to you two brothers?”
Yi Yunrui shakes his head, “My brother is not a narrow-minded man. Besides, even if you don’t cause trouble, troubles will find you. We live in this world and we have to continuously solve all kinds of troubles in life. Probably, the conflicts we are having now may help our eldest brother earn his beauty.”
What Yi Yunrui says sounds meaningful!
Ah. Xia Ning understands.
Yi Yunrui holds out his hand to hug his wife tightly, “Do you want to know about Man?”
Xia Ning nods.
“Man is an orphan left by war. Her hometown is in Syria. All her family died in a clean-out event. When I found her, she was still a little child. I sent her to join the army. She was very excellent in the army, being a genius of fighting. Soon, she entered the special forces and carried out the most dangerous tasks. The girl is lucky. She always comes back alive. However, it is a pity that all the other members in the teams she used to be in are all dead.
Xia Ning hears his words and feels her heart twitched.
Man is such a beautiful girl. Why did she always push herself towards the edge of death?
“Darling, Man told me these things. But I don’t understand why she did so. Didn’t she fear death? Or, is she a born adventurous girl?”
“Man’s family were killed by terrorists. So, she hates them very much. It has been five years since I’ve met her. She joined the peace-keeping forces and was carrying out a mission in the mop-up of terrorists. There were only two people from that team coming back alive. One of them is Man.
Wars are cruel. When people on the battlefield, their lives are not guaranteed. Xia Ning hears Yi Yunrui’s words. She can’t help admitting that Man is a very lucky girl.
Suddenly, she remembers something and asks, “Are Luo Zhen and others also carrying out missions like these?”
Yi Yunrui darkens his eyes and nods.
Xia Ning feels a chill in her heart. She thinks of Zhou Wenping and Li Baoer and feels worried about them.
Luo Zhen, Dai Zhongheng, Feng Le, please come back alive!
“Zhongheng and Luo Zhen have rich war experience. They are gifted leaders. Don’t worry. They will be safe.”
Xia Ning purses her lips. It sounds right. But who can guarantee that?
Yi Yunrui is aware of his wife’s worried expression. He pats her on the shoulder, “Sweetheart, Man is a food aficionado, just like you. However, the difference between her and you is that she will not refuse any food.”
At this point, Xia Ning can’t agree more. Man ate all the food on the table, including two bowls of rice! Those are two really big bowls.
“Man said that she hadn’t had any rice for a long time. Ha. Ha.”
“Yes. The special forces team she was in was surrounded by enemies many times and the supply of water and food was cut. She had to eat some certain small animals to save her life. Sweetheart, Man always stayed with those strong men. She is like a man in personality. She will be working with you. I am afraid that you have to be tolerant of her with kindly understanding.”
Xia Ning understands what Yi Yunrui means by small animals. When she thinks about that she feels very sorry for Man. She smiles, “Don’t worry. It is not a problem. To be honest, I like Man very much.”
Yi Yunrui looks quietly at his wife with affection in his eyes, “Sweetheart, Man has no family or relatives. I am the one who she is most close to. Anyway, we are only friends. Don’t take it wrong. She is a poor girl. I summon her to come back this time because I hope she can enjoy some quiet time in her life. Can you give her more space?”
Xia Ning looks at her husband’s pleading eyes. She holds his hand tightly, “Honestly, when Man hugged you, I was shocked. However, I trust you and I also believe your choice. I won’t take it wrong. Don’t worry.”
Yi Yunrui expresses clearly that Man is a special person to him. His feeling to her is complicated. It is hard for him to tell it more clearly for now. Xia Ning understands. She may need to ignore some things.
It is about eight the next morning.
Xia Ning hasn’t changed her pajamas. She looks down through the window and sees Man motionlessly standing like a statue outside the door. It seems that even heavy rain or strong winds can’t move her a little. On the contrary, Zhang Hai holds breakfast and leans on Knight XV. He looks at Man with an amused smile.
It is not surprising. Soldiers from different arms of services are different in their attitudes.
Xia Ning strokes her head. Man looks too serious. According to Yi Yunrui’s arrangement, Man will go to World Era Weekly to be her secretary. It doesn’t look workable.
At this time, Yi Yunrui comes to her, embracing his wife from behind, “Sweetheart, let’s have breakfast. And then, we are going to work.”
“Darling.” Xia Ning points at Man downstairs, “Don’t you think Man looks a little weird?”
Yi Yunrui glances at Man and responds, “Oh. She does.”
Yi Yunrui takes out his phone and calls Man, “Come upstairs for breakfast.”
Yi Yunrui hangs up and holds her wife again, “Sweetie, I ask Man to have breakfast with us. Would you mind it?”
