Chapter 155 The Strange Man

“Gu Ruoruo! That is enough!”

Gu Luan suddenly shouts at Gu Ruoruo and everyone is shocked.

Being shouted by Gu Luan, Gu Ruoruo gets confused.

Well, she knows that Brother Luan doesn’t like her. And they seldom talk with each other. However, he has never shouted at her in this way.

She has never… been shouted by anyone before.

Tears blur her eyes. Gu Ruoruo feels extremely sad.

“Brother Luan, you yell at me.” Gu Ruoruo tries hard to restrain her tears. She stares at Xia Ning, “Sister Xia, I beg you. Would you please not play that on Brother Luan? Brother Luan doesn’t like me, but he is my dearest brother. He is the person I like most…”

“Gu Ruoruo! Get out of here!” Gu Luan can’t stand that any longer. He goes to grab her hand and draws her to go towards the door.

“I can go myself.” Gu Ruoruo forcefully throws off Gu Luan’s hand. She can’t help bursting into tears, “I will leave! Even though Brother Luan may shout at me, throw me away, or kicks me out, I am not going to give up!” Saying this, Gu Ruoruo looks at Xia Ning, “I may give you a break for now today!”

Gu Ruoruo finishes her words and wipes her tears forcefully. Then, she turns to leave.

“Ruoruo!” Wan Liqing cries. She turns to Gu Luan: “I will go to check on her.”

Then, she runs to follow Gu Ruoruo.

At the moment she walks out of the VIP Room, Wan Liqing’s eyes darken.

She clearly sees the passion in Gu Luan’s eyes … the passion for Xia Ning.

As long as Xia Ning is here, it will be difficult for her to get reconciled with Gu Luan.

Since the rival has shown up, it is necessary for her to get ready.

To get ready for fighting.

Seeing Gu Ruoruo and Wan Liqing go out, Xia Ning gives a sigh. She takes up her bag. The misunderstanding is caused. It is meaningless for her to stay here.

“Where are you going?” Gu Luan raises his hand and stops her.

Xia Ning slightly pauses. Consciously, she takes a step backwards: “Director Gu, I am going home.

“You didn’t eat much for supper. You can have more before leaving.”

“No.” Xia Ning shakes her head, “I am full. Well, Ruoruo is young. She runs out in this way. You should go to check on her. I am fine with myself.” Xia Ning lightly pushes away Gu Luan’s hand.

“No.”

Suddenly, Gu Luan holds Xia Ning’s hand, which shocks Xia Ning. She trembles.

“Director Gu!” Xia Ning looks at Gu Luan in surprise, “You…”

“I am driving you home.” Gu Luan slightly turns his face away and loosens his hand, “Liqing will take care of Ruoruo. I will go to her later. I will drive you home first.”

“No need. I can manage myself.”

“Do you think you can refuse?” Gu Luan says and stares at Xia Ning.

Xia Ning’s heart suddenly jumps and she immediately turns her face away.

Why is Gu Luan so strange?

“As a friend and colleague in the company, I have the responsibility to drive you home. Or, if Commander Yi knows that I let you go home alone after having dinner with you, he definitely will blame me.”

When Yi Yunrui is mentioned, Xia Ning’s heart tightens and she doesn’t refuse again.

On the way home, Xia Ning sits on the co-driver seat. No matter what Gu Luan says to her, she responds with mild smiles and rarely speaks.

She is aware that ever since the moment of her getting injured, Gu Luan has been treating her strangely.

She doesn’t know what Gu Luan is thinking about and she doesn’t want to guess. What she wants is to keep the previous relation with Gu Luan.

The relation of a supervisor and a subordinate. That is all.

She has caused enough troubles. She also knows the relation between Wan Liqing and Gu Luan. If she gets involved into that, it will make really muddy water.

Things happened one after another. Even if she tries to explain, she can’t get everything clear.

The car stops at the military compound. Xia Ning says “Thank you” and gets off the car directly.

After she enters her house, she looks through the window and sees Gu Luan’s car go away.

Xia Ning curls her lips and clenches her fists slowly.

Will what happened in B City repeat?

Xia Ning close her eyes and takes a deep breath. She closes the curtains.

She sits in the sofa and takes out her phone. She clicks the messages and looks at the photos from Yin Jingsi one by one.

If these photos are spread, Yi Yunrui will definitely be influenced.

If it were about herself alone, she doesn’t care about that. Anyway, the Yin’s sisters have been trying to ruin her all the time. However, Yi Yunrui is getting involved…

What should she do?

The weather in the Northwest is really depressing.

Ever since the troops arrived in the base, it snows every day, heavily. As told by the local people, there must be snowstorm to come in a few days.

So, the troops of the military exercise receive an order: they are going back to their military region in two days.

Based on the situation of the wind and snow, the department specially allocates high speed trains to take the troops back to their regions.

Yi Yunrui carries the official document in his hand. He seems to think about something.

The planned exercise period is a month, while it has just been ten days. If he goes back now, shall he give a surprise to Xia Ning?”

“Commander Yi.”

Yi Yunrui is in mediation, when suddenly he hears a soft female voice. He frowns.

He turns to look at the speaker and asks coldly: “Why are you here?”

The woman smiles and shrugs her shoulders: “This is a nationwide joint-military exercise. Commander, why can’t I be here?”

“Ring…”

The alarm clock shouts violently in the morning. Xia Ning is shocked and wakes up.

Unconsciously, Xia Ning gets up. She blinks her eyes and feels dizzy with tinnitus.

Xia Ning shakes her head. It takes quite a while for her to remember what happened. She was drunk the night before.

Seeing the floor in a mess, Xia Ning at once goes to do the cleanup. However, she has hardly taken any steps when she feels dizzier. She simply sits down on the bed and gasps heavily.

She couldn’t drink much, but she drank a lot in the previous evening. She looks at the half bottle of Black Label on the floor and realizes that her dizziness is not going to last for only a while.

She vaguely remembers that Gu Luan said that she could take a rest today.

To be honest, she really wants to go to work, but under the current condition…she can hardly walk properly.

Ah… It seems that wine doesn’t kill nervousness, but brings more.

She grasps her phone and finds that Yi Yunrui didn’t call her last night.

She gives a sigh of relief in her heart.

If Yi Yunrui called her last night, he would surely find that she drank.

Xia Ning sits on the bed for quite a while before she can stand up. Then, she goes to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face.

Soon, the phone rings. Xia Ning glances at it and finds that Gu Luan is calling.

Xia Ning strokes her hairs, wondering what Gu Luan calls her for. Is he going to ask about her not going to work today?
