Chapter 326 The Person Locked Up
Xia Ning hears Tang Qieying’s words. She blushes. She looks at Tang Qieying, realizing that she doesn’t need to hide anything from Tang Qieying, who is old enough to be a grandmother and knows everything about life. Xia Ning nods.
“Girl, I like you very much. You are frank.” Tang Qieying says when she packs the lamb leg for Xia Ning, “Let me give you some suggestions. When you want to eat it, you may ask the hotel to warm it for you. You’d better eat it this evening. It won’t be so tasty if you keep it for another day.”
“Thank you, M...Yingying.” Xia Ning still feels very odd to call her in this address.
Age does mean something. Xia Ning can’t get used to this addressing.
“Girl, do you know how many women are around your man?” Suddenly, Tang Qieying asks.
Xia Ning feels shocked all of a sudden! She turns pale!
She wonders whether Tang Qieying asks this question to mean that Yi Yunrui has a mistress.
Tang Qieying is aware of Xia Ning’s misunderstanding. She waves her hand, “Ah. I don’t mean that. Girl, don’t take it wrong. I mean, do you know how popular your man is with women.”
Xia Ning twitches her lips. It is really the opposite. That is too much as a joke!
Xia Ning is not strong enough to withstand it in her heart.
“Yes. I know. He is excellent.” Xia Ning is not flattering her husband. She is clear about how popular her husband is.
“Well.” Tang Qieying shakes her head, “In my opinion, you still don’t know it well! Your man is much more than being excellent! I was also crazy about him at that time.”
Xia Ning feels surprised. Then, she smiles, “That’s Rui’s honor. Sister Yingying, you are much better than me. Rui will have a better life if he stays with you instead of me.”
It is odd to call Tang Qieying Yingying. So, Xia Ning adds the word Sister. It sounds more acceptable to her.
“Ha. What are you saying? I to him, is what an old grass to a young bull! Ha. Ha!” Tang Qieying can’t help laughing herself, “Girl, I just want to tell you that your man is awesome. You still underestimate him by judging him with what you have seen.”
Xia Ning blinks her eyes. She leans to Tang Qieying, “Sister Yingying, can you tell me the secrets of Rui? I will never tell others.”
“No. No. As an army woman, I also have to obey the confidentiality agreement.” Tang Qieying shakes her head, “In addition, it is about politics. As a woman, I’d better not get involved. I am afraid that it may cause some trouble to me. However, I know that Commander Yi doesn’t come to Beijing for simple reasons. Girl, you are worried about him, aren’t you?”
“Yeah.” Xia Ning nods. Normally speaking, with her identity, Tang Qieying must know quite a lot of things about Yi Yunrui.
“Listen to me. Yi Yunrui is awesome. Those old men can’t be his match!” Tang Qieying pauses and continues, “And, no people dare to hurt him unless they want to die.”
Xia Ning is shocked blankly, wondering what she means.
Yi Yunrui is interrogated by the Headquarters of the Military Commander Department. Why does she say that they are not the match of Rui and don’t dare to hurt him?
She wants to ask. But Tang Qieying interrupts, “I have told you too much today. Girl, don’t tell anyone else about what I have said today. Well. I happen to be free these days. Where do you live?”
“7-day Business Inn.”
“Seriously? You are too frugal. Didn’t you say that you came to travel around Beijing? Why do you stay in a business inn? Your commander husband is not a poor man. Don’t tell me that he only allows you to spend limited money...”
“No. No. It is nothing like that.” Xia Ning shakes her head, “I always stay in the 7-day Business Inn when I am on business trips. I get used to it.”
Tang Qieying nods, “It is a matter of habit. I see. I may go back now. See you next time.”
Therefore, just as she showed up suddenly, she leaves suddenly, too. Soon, Tang Qieying goes out of Xia Ning’s sight.
Xia Ning sits on the bus. She looks at the packed mutton in her hand and thinks about what Tang Qieying said.
It is said that this woman was giftedly talented when she was young. She was praised to be able to protect a country with a sword and stabilize a nation with a pen. However, because of a man, she chose to be single all her life.
She is such a beautiful and capable woman, while she chooses to stay alone all her life. It is imaginable that how much and sincerely she loves that man.
Xia Ning arrives at the hotel. It has been past seven in the evening. The street lamps are on and the night starts. Xia Ning doesn’t want to go out. She goes back to the room alone. She plans that she will eat the mutton when watching the TV. She will go directly to sleep when she feels tired.
She puts the mutton on the table and is going to change her clothes. Someone knocks at the door, “Ms. Xia, special service of the hotel. Here is your milk. Please open the door.”
Xia Ning responds. She looks through the peephole and sees a man wearing a hotel uniform.
She opens the door. The man pulls the cart in. He turns to close the door.
The waiter’s behavior makes Xia Ning alert!
Normally, a waiter is not supposed to go directly into a guest’s room if not for serving meals. Now, it is not time to have a meal...The waiter is very suspicious...
Thinking about this, Xia Ning takes some steps backwards. She touches her bracelet.
“Miss Xia, don’t be afraid. Mr. Lei sends me here.” The man says in a low voice.
Xia Ning feels surprised, “Can I call him for confirmation?”
The man nods. He takes a set of clothes from the cart and puts it in front of Xia Ning, “Mr. Lei asks you to put on this army uniform.”
Xia Ning glances at the army uniform. She dials Lei Buyang’s number.
“You have received the army uniform, haven’t you?”
Xia Ning hasn’t spoken anything when Lei Buyang asks directly.
“Yeah. Did you send the man here? Mr. Lei, what do you want to do?”
“Ning, don’t ask questions. You may just put on the army uniform. You will understand soon. Don’t worry, your Yangyang won’t hurt you. Just do as I say.” Then, Lei Buyang hangs up the phone.
Xia Ning feels confused. She remembers what happened the night before, wondering whether it has anything to do with the project Yi Yuntian mentioned.
The man stands at attention politely. Xia Ning thinks for a while. She takes up the clothes and goes into the washing room.
Soon, Xia Ning comes out. The uniform seems to be made for her. It fits her perfectly.
The man takes out another coat, “Ms. Xia, please put on this coat. Mr. Lei’s car is waiting outside the gate.”
Xia Ning goes downstairs. A black Audi car stops not far away from the gate of the hotel. Xia Ning gets in the car and sees Lei Buyang there.
“Hi, let me look how is Ning in the army uniform.” Lei Buyang holds out his hand towards Xia Ning.
Xia Ning stops his hand, “What on earth is going on here?”
“Sh. Don’t ask questions.” Lei Buyang makes a gesture of silence, “You will understand in half an hour. Don’t worry. You will surely be happy with it. Well. If I dare to do anything bad, your commander husband may find me out even he needs to turn the earth upside down for that.”
Lei Buyang gives a sigh in his heart. Yes, Ning will feel satisfied, while he has struggled because of it for a whole night!
Yi Yuntian really issues a damaging mission for him!
It is breaking Lei Buyang’s heart!
Xia Ning keeps patient. The car goes for about twenty minutes before it stops. Xia Ning sees an army vehicle not far away from them.
“Ning, remember. If anyone asks, you may respond that your number is 9527, for the night shift. It will be fine.” Lei Buyang says in a low voice, “Keep it in your mind. Don’t say it wrong. It is 9527, for the night shift.”
Xia Ning twitches her lips. Isn’t this number exclusive for the famous actor Stephen Chow in his movies?
Wait. It is an army vehicle!
Can it be...
Thinking of this, Xia Ning feels excited in her heart. Vaguely she knows what is going to happen.
Xia Ning nods. She responds, “Don’t worry. I won’t forget it.”
At the time, two army men get off from the army vehicle. They knock at the window.
“You can get off and go with them. Don’t speak anything.” Lei Buyang gives the instructions.
Xia Ning responds. She gets off the car and follows the army men to the army vehicle.
After she gets in the army vehicle, Xia Ning notices a serious problem!
The army vehicle has no license plate on it!
Shit. If anything happens, no traces can be found.
Xia Ning begins to feel worried. However, the army men around her are fully armed. She has to try her best to calm down.
The army vehicle goes on a roundabout route for about ten minutes. The roads are all isolated. Then, the vehicle stops at a remote mountain. Xia Ning looks outside and feels her heart tightened!
Suddenly, scenes of executing criminals pop up in her brain!
What...
At the time, an army man stamps the ground with his foot, three long stamps and two short ones. Soon, somewhere on the ground opens.
Xia Ning gives a light sigh of relief. Seemingly, it is a secret base.
She follows the two men and goes downstairs. It is a long tunnel. A fully armed soldier posted every ten meters.
Xia Ning goes on to walk and feels more and more confused. As many movies tell, this place is normally for the detention of criminals of A-grade!
Can Lei Buyang arrange her to visit some places?
They walk for another five minutes or so. Xia Ning sees a soldier, who seems to check about something.
He sees Xia Ning. He asks, “Code.”
Xia Ning hesitates. She remembers Lei Buyang’s instructions and responds, “9527, night shift.”
The soldier nods. He passes a meal box to Xia Ning, “Come back in one hour.”
Xia Ning nods. She takes the meal box and follows the army men to go inside.
It is not as silent as before. It looks like a rest house. There is a gate and two soldiers are standing there.
They see the comers with Xia Ning. They salute and turn to leave.
Seemingly, they are making the shift.
The two army men stand in their position. One of them knocks at the door, “Commander Yi, here is your supper.”
Xia Ning feels shocked all of a sudden on hearing the words.
What?
The person inside is Yi Yunrui?
