Chapter 187 An Encounter

Xia Ning is silent. Gu Luan takes the coffee for a sip, “If you tell Commander Yi, please let me know. If there is anything I can do, I will cooperate with you.”

Xia Ning mildly smiles, “Thank you.”

Gu Luan wants to continue, but he suddenly stops!

Xia Ning finds Gu Luan freeze. She is confused. She follows the direction of Gu Luan and she is shocked blankly!

When does Yi Yunrui stand behind her?

“Rui…!” Xia Ning panics. She stands up.

Why does he come here?

“You two are having a good time.” Yi Yunrui stares at Xia Ning. His face looks cold.

“Rui, I have something to talk with Director Gu. So…”

“Why don’t you say frankly?” Yi Yunrui interrupts in a cold voice.

“I…I…Sorry.” Xia Ning doesn’t know what else she can say.

She looks at Yi Yunrui and knows that he must have some misunderstandings.

Xia Ning feels his eyes burning her as if they are fires. She wants to come close to Yi Yunrui. Then, she sees a woman behind him. Xia Ning is stunned.

She is Yin Jingyao!

Xia Ning is shocked for quite a while, wondering why Yi Yunrui is with Yin Jingyao.

Yin Jingyao is aware of Xia Ning’s surprise. She puts on a tricky smile, “What a coincidence. Xia Ning, and Director Gu is here, too.”

Xia Ning looks at Yi Yunrui in surprise. She is asking with her eyes why Yi Yunrui is with Yin Jingyao.

Yi Yunrui looks cold. His sharp eyes look at Gu Luan, “Director Gu, the way of working overtime in your company is really special. It is the first time for me to see such a leisurely way of working overtime.

Feeling the unpleasure in Yi Yunrui’s tone, Gu Luan explains, “Commander Yi, please don’t misunderstand. I do have something to discuss with Ning this evening. If it causes any inconvenience to you, I want to apologize to you here.”

Yi Yunrui freezes his eyes. He comes to hold Xia Ning’s hand, “Then, have you finished the work?”

“Yes, we have.”

Yi Yunrui curls his thin lips and draws Xia Ning to go without other responses.

They walk out of the coffee shop. Knight XV is parked outside. Zhang Hai sees Xia Ning and he greets, “Mrs. Yi!”

Xia Ning mildly nods before she is “thrown” into the car by Yi Yunrui.

She sees that Yin Jingyao follows them and sits in the back seat.

Xia Ning is more confused. But she finds that Yi Yunrui’s face is grey. She stops her words.

Instead, Yin Jingyao speaks first, “Xia Ning, don’t misunderstand. I invited both Rui and you for dinner this evening to have a chat.”

“Oh. I see.” She doubts that it is so simple. Gu Luan reminded her just now. It seems that Yin Jingyao is launching her plan.

“Then…Where are we going for dinner?” Xia Ning asks Yi Yunrui in a low voice.

“It is up to Jingyao.” Yi Yunrui doesn’t look at her and responds coldly.

Jingyao?

Xia Ning feels her heart aching.

Yi Yunrui is addressing the woman in this way…

Xia Ning feels sad. She turns away her face and looks out through the window.

She sees Yi Yunrui’s expression and knows it is useless to explain at the moment. In addition, if she wants to explain clearly, she will need to tell him about the photos issue.

At that time, Yi Yunrui may be angrier.

Xia Ning’s heart tightens. She closes her eyes and takes a deep breath. It seems something expected is coming.

“Xia Ning, where do you think we should go for dinner?” Yin Jingyao smiles and asks her.

“You may decide it. I have no idea.” She is already here. What can she say?

“Well…” Yin Jingyao tries to make a decision. She turns to ask Yi Yunrui, “Rui, what do you think? Where shall we go?”

Yi Yunrui thinks for a while and says, “Sockfield French Restaurant.”

Xia Ning is astonished to hear this.

Sockfield French Restaurant is the restaurant where Gu Luan and she had dinner two days ago!

Yi Yunrui…

Xia Ning looks at Yi Yunrui in surprise. She finds that Yi Yunrui is looking at her with questioning eyes. Xia Ning tightens her heart and lowers her head at once.

Ha, is this the revenge on her?

There are things that can’t be avoided no matter how hard she tries to resist and get away from.

“Fine. We are going to Sockfield French Restaurant. It is a three-star Michelin restaurant!” Yin Jingyao says with expectation.

The car stops in front of Sockfield French Restaurant. Yi Yunrui opens the door of the car himself and gets off. Xia Ning gives a sigh. She turns to open the door.

When she stands on the ground, she finds that Yin Jingyao has been standing by Yi Yunrui. The back of the handsome man and the pretty woman look perfect. In an instant, Xia Ning feels like she is a stranger here.

It is surprising that Yi Yunrui accepts Yin Jingyao’s invitation. Isn’t he angry with Yin Jingyao any longer?

Or, Yi Yunrui is…

Xia Ning feels her heart painful. She dares not to think deeper.

In this world, everything is possible!

Yi Yunrui goes into the restaurant himself. Xia Ning and Yin Jingyao follow him.

Once Xia Ning enters the restaurant, the manager recognizes her. He greets her politely, “Miss Xia.”

Yi Yunrui slightly blinks his eyes and looks at Xia Ning.

“Sister Xia, you are awesome. The manager of the restaurant recognizes you. Even Rui is not as awesome as you.” Not waiting for Xia Ning to respond, Yin Jingyao says.

Yin Jingyao’s words sound undoubtedly harsh to the two.

The manager feels the uneasiness in the air. He doesn’t say other words any longer and politely greets them.

Yin Jingyao orders many classic dishes of the restaurant. Yi Yunrui only briefly says, “It is fine for Jingyao to order for me.”

Xia Ning bites her bottom lip. She knows that Yi Yunrui is angry. She knows that he is making use of Yin Jingyao to enrage her.”

Xia Ning closes the menu and says, “A sole fish fillet.”

“OK. Please wait for a moment.”

Yi Yunrui is sitting by Xia Ning, but Xia Ning feels very cold. She feels guilty, but she can’t speak it out because Yin Jingyao is there.

“Sister Xia, do you like fish?” Yin Jingyao asks.

Xia Ning nods. She wants to speak. But Yin Jingyao has turned to Yi Yunrui, “Rui, why don’t you order the same dish with Sister Xia? Don’t you also like seafood?”

Yi Yunrui glances at Xia Ning, “I want to have a change.”

“Well.” Yin Jingyao smiles, “Yes. Always having the same dishes is boring.”

It is not known whether Yin Jingyao says that casually or deliberately. Xia Ning frowns.

Yi Yunrui takes the water for a sip. He looks at Yin Jingyao, “I have known you for a long time. But I don’t know what you like to eat. Sorry. Can you tell me?”

Yin Jingyao‘s eyes are lightened immediately as if Yi Yunrui’s words are diamonds. She is happy and her face turns pink. She responds, “Oh, I don’t have any favorite foods. What I care about is the atmosphere of dining.”

She doesn’t care what to eat, as long as she can stay with Yi Yunrui.
