Chapter 101 A Mini Arsenal
“OK. I promise you.” Xia Ning responds without hesitation.
She has made Yi Yunrui too worried these days. It was expected that she would look after Yi Yunrui, but on the contrary, Yi Yunrui has been always taking care of her.
As long as he allows her to continue with her job, she can accept any requirements from him.
Because she knows that Yi Yunrui won’t be hard on her.
Every time when he mentions some requirements, he is actually considerate of her.
“I prepared some clothes for you. They are in the wardrobe. Will you wear them whenever you go out?”
Xia Ning blinks her eyes. What requirement is this?
Isn’t it very normal that a husband requires her wife to wear the clothes he prepares for her?
However, it may be nothing if this is told by any other men, but it means something because it is told by the Commander.
Thinking of this, Xia Ning asks, “Darling, do you hide anything from me?”
Yi Yunrui hears and changes his color slightly.
Xia Ning lifts her eyebrows. In front of her, Yi Yunrui is always expressive. When she pays attention to, Xia Ning can often realize the tiny changes.
“Darling, didn’t you say that we can’t hide things between us? Are you hiding anything from me, now?” Xia Ning keeps asking.
Yi Yunrui thinks for a while, “Sweetheart, it is not that I don’t want to say. It is related with military confidence. Will you understand?”
Xia Ning widens her eyes. Military Confidence!
They are just clothes!
Wait! Is Yi Yunrui going to do any military test with her?
“Are you doing test with me?” Xia Ning turns serious.
“No. Of course no!” Yi Yunrui responds quickly, “It is not a test. It is the latest military technology which is temporarily not reported. It will not cause any harm to health. When I get the documents, I will tell you. OK?”
Xia Ning is puzzled for quite a while. In the end, she curls her lips, “OK. You have to tell me then, with no secrets.”
Yi Yunrui gently replies, “OK. Well, I prepare some other things for you.”
Yi Yunrui takes out some small things: lipstick, powder box and nail polish.
These three things look cute. Xia Ning is shocked with surprise.
When does Commander Yi become a cosmetic consultant?
“Aren’t these cosmetics?” Xia Ning asks and reaches to take them.
Yi Yunrui stops her. He takes up the lipstick, “This is lipstick gun. There are five bullets with anaesthetic inside, which will take effect within three seconds and make people faint for one hour. When you want to use it, press this button.”
Saying this, Yi Yunrui opens the lipstick. There is a mini muzzle. The shoot button is just at the joint of the opening.
Xia Ning is stunned!
Lipstick gun is a weapon used by the agent?
“Darling, I am not an agent. If I make any mistakes, there will be serious consequences.” She really wants to have it, but is that illegal according to the existing laws of the country?
“It doesn’t matter.” Yi Yunrui covers the lipstick and puts it on her hand, “Normally, agent will use two bullets which can kill people, while your weapon can only make people faint. It won’t cause serious hurt. It is OK.”
Then, Yi Yunrui introduces the other two things to Xia Ning.
The nail polish is actually a mini electric shock rod and can make people faint at once. The powder box is filled with pepper spray. It can also shoot dozens of steel needles which are coated with special chemicals to stimulate nerves to make people painful.
Armed with these three things, as if she brings a mini arsenal, Xia Ning will be able to handle a dozen of men by herself.
Xia Ning suddenly feels that she is in the movie Mission Impossible.
“You can put the powder box in your bag. I hope you can carry the lipstick and nail polish with you. They can be put in your pocket.”
“Oh.” It is right. They are tiny and can be put in the pocket. Seeing these two things, Xia Ning turns her eyes naughtily. She smiles, “Darling, aren’t you afraid that I will use them against you?”
Hearing this, Yi Yunrui freezes his face and in the next second, he collects all the weapons, “Don’t make nonsense. Be good. You will have them when you go out.”
Xia Ning sees Yi Yunrui’s reaction and can’t help laughing.
The serious and cool Commander will also make mistakes. She is aware that the expression of the Commander is cute!
“Sweetheart, the weapons I give you are military confidences. You can’t tell any other people, including Baoer. Do you understand?”
Xia Ning nods, “Hum. I do.”
She wonders whether Dai Zhongheng will also give a set of these weapons to Baoer or not.
Yi Yunrui looks at her gently and strokes her hair, “You may have a rest. It will be time for supper when you wake up. We can have a walk in the long beach.”
“OK.” It is good to have a walk outside and she is a little sleepy now.
Xia Ning goes back to the bed and Yi Yunrui covers her with the quilt. He thinks for a while and says, “Why don’t we sleep together?”
Xia Ning is shocked. If Yi Yunrui lies beside her, can she have a real sleep?”
“Next time.” Xia Ning closes her eyes and throws the words. She turns over.
Yi Yunrui twitches his eyebrows. What is called “next time”?
The next morning, Xia Ning goes back to the office. Someone is earlier than her. It is Gu Luan.
Xia Ning is planning to meet Gu Luan, so she goes directly into his office.
Xia Ning knocks at the door and walks inside after hearing Gu Luan’s permission.
Gu Luan’s office is as tidy as the white suit he wears, without any flaws. But the files by his side pile up high.
Gu Luan’s assistant hasn’t come. Xia Ning asks, “Director Gu, do you want to have a cup of coffee?”
Gu Luan lifts his eyes and glances at her. He smiles, “Oh, I have never tried the coffee made by Director Xia. Yes. Please.”
“OK. Please wait for a minute.” Xia Ning walks to the nearby bar counter to make the coffee.
The inside design of World Era TV Station is much humanized. There is a mini bar counter in the Director Office. Xia Ning puts the coffee in front of Gu Luan, “You may find my coffee a little sweet. Hehe, if Director Gu doesn’t like it, I can make another one.”
“No, thank you. I like sweet. too.” Gu Luan responds and has a mouthful of the coffee.
Xia Ning sees that there is nothing unusual on Gu Luan’s expression. She says, “Actually, I am here for something.”
“Is it about Song Yingying and Agent Huang?” Gu Luan asks.
“Hum. I really had a bad time with Agent Huang last evening, so...”
“You went to the hospital last night, didn’t you?” Gu Luan lifts his eyes to interrupt.
“Hum. I drank too much and felt sick in my stomach.”
Gu Luan blinks his eyes, “I am clear what kind of person Agent Huang is. Ning, you don’t need to burden yourself with that. If anything happens, the TV Station will support you. You only need to do your job well.”
Hearing this, Xia Ning feels warm.
World Era TV Station is really different from TIME. What Gu Luan said means obviously that the TV Station will protect her.
She believes in Gu Luan and she also believes that Gu Luan keeps his promises.
“Director Gu, thank you for your understanding. Then, I will go to handle the exclusive interview of Song Yingying.”
Gu Luan nods, “Ning, if you feel anything wrong, tell me at once. OK?”
“OK.” Xia Ning feels warm. When she is turning to leave, Gu Luan reminds her.
“You may read the entertainment headline in today’s paper.”
Read the entertainment headline? Xia Ning hesitates and suddenly she remembers something and rushes to her office.
The newspaper is already put on her desk. Xia Ning takes up the newspaper and turns to the entertainment page. There, she sees the big words in the headline and is shocked blankly.
Shit. It does come!
“Commander, the military exercise is ten days away and we have got everything ready. The schedule is here, please check.” Mei Ruo passes some files to Yi Yunrui.
Yi Yunrui takes them over and checks carefully.
After quite a while, Yi Yunrui is aware that Mei Ruo is still there, “You may go. I will tell you if there is anything wrong.”
“Hum. OK.” Mei Ruo responds, but she doesn’t move.
Yi Yunrui is surprised, “Anything else?”
Mei Ruo hesitates, “It is not anything serious. It should not be mentioned by me. But I don’t think that the Commander has known it.”
Yi Yunrui gets serious, “Tell me plainly.”
“Has the Commander read today’s newspaper?”
Yi Yunrui glances at the paper aside, “No. I will read it later. What’s the problem?”
“If the Commander has time, I suggest you to read the entertainment headline first, in today’s newspaper.”
Yi Yunrui realizes that Mei Ruo is hinting at something. He puts down the file and takes the newspaper. He opens the entertainment page.
“A Presswoman Fishes the Rich Man, A Wild Girlfriend in the Street!”
Under the headline, there are lots of large photos.
Xia Ning is with An Zeyou, kissing and slapping...
Yi Yunrui’s heart tightens!
He closes the newspaper and says indifferently, “Hum. I know. You can go out now.”
Mei Ruo blinks her eyes, “Hum. I may go.”
Mei Ruo turns to walk out of the Commander Office. She lifts her lips and smiles evilly.
Xia Ning and An Zeyou? There will be stories to come.
In the Director Office, Xia Ning looks at the photos and feels her head ache.
It is an eventful year, a tough time for her. What’s wrong?
At the time, the phone rings. Xia Ning presses the button and hears Gu Luan’s voice, “Ning, a new task for you. Please arrange it.”
“OK. What is it?”
“Make an exclusive interview with An Zeyou.”
Hearing this, as if a chilly wind blows, Xia Ning is frozen.”
“Ning, what’s up? Is it inconvenient?”
“No, not at all. It is convenient. I will arrange it right away.”
“Good. It is all on you.” Gu Luan hangs up.
Xia Ning twitches her eyebrows, wondering whether Gu Luan is kidding her.
The photos in the newspaper are harsh. Xia Ning grits her teeth and wishes that she could dismantle the handsome face of An Zeyou.
Anyway, it is also a chance.
An Zeyou is arrogant and has refused the interviews of many TV Stations. Since An Zeyou gives her the “chance”, she can make good use of it.
