Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband Chapter 111

“Oh?” Xia Ning is surprised. Why would the prominent Commissar Mei wait for her downstairs for a whole day? What an honor! She says, “Commissar Mei is flattering me. What do you want to meet me for?”

“You will know soon.” Mei Ruo indifferently responds. She goes into the kitchen and sees the material, “Are you going to have these for supper?”

“Yes.” Xia Ning enters the kitchen. She leans on the wall, “I can only make family foods. They are not good enough for showing off. If Commissar Mei likes, you can have dinner together with us.”

“Where is the apron?”

Xia Ning lifts her eyebrows. It seems that the great Commissar Mei wants to cook in person, “It is hung there.”

Mei Ruo takes the apron and puts it on. Not waiting for Xia Ning to introduce, she walks to the fridge and takes some materials to the kitchen.

Seeing Mei Ruo being busy in coming in and out, Xia Ning simply goes to read a newspaper in the living room.

She feels a little uncomfortable. However, a free chef is offering her service. Why shouldn't she accept her?

She has been worrying these days and she has realized that yours will always belong to you. Or, trying to get something that is not yours will be in vain.

Yi Yunrui gets home at half past five. He takes a bag of foods with him. All are for the hot pot.

He is surprised to find that Xia Ning is sitting in the living room. Xia Ning puts down the paper and goes to take the foods from him. She is going to put them into the fridge.

“Sweetheart, they are for supper…”

“No need. Commissar Mei is cooking in the kitchen.” Xia Ning puts the foods into the fridge and says.

Yi Yunrui frowns, “Is Mei Ruo here? Why does she come?”

Xia Ning glances at the time, “She has been here for almost half an hour.” Seemingly, supper will be ready soon.

Yi Yunrui takes off his coat and walks to the kitchen. The flavor can make him water, but Yi Yunrui doesn't have the mood to eat anything.

“Rui, you are back. Go to wash your hands. Supper will be ready soon.” Mei Ruo says.

“Why are you at my home?”

Mei Ruo hesitates, “Oh, I want to make a dinner for you.”

“No need.” Yi Yunrui says plainly, “If you want to have dinner at my house, you should tell me first.”

Mei Ruo smiles gently, “Isn't it just a dinner? Rui, do you have to do this to me?”

Yi Yunrui darkens his face, “I am your superior, Commissar Mei.”

“We are not in the Military Region now. We are equal.” Mei Ruo mildly responds.

Yi Yunrui is very unhappy, wondering what Mei Ruo wants to do.

Now, Xia Ning is at home. Mei Ruo comes on purpose. Why wasn't he aware that Mei Ruo was tricky?

“Commissar Mei, what on earth do you come to my home for?” Yi Yunrui asks seriously.

“Is the dinner ready?” Mei Ruo has not replied while Xia Ning comes in.

It smells like a war in the kitchen. However, there is also flavor of foods. Xia Ning is hungry.

“Are all these on the table ready to serve? I will take them out.”

“Yes, please.” Mei Ruo replies without looking at Xia Ning, as if she is the hostess of this house.

Xia Ning takes the dishes out and draws Yi Yunrui to go with her.

“Darling, let it be. Let's have dinner first.” She is hypoglycemic. If she doesn't feel well because of hunger, she will need to go to the hospital.

The table is occupied with eight dishes and a bowl of soup, a rich dinner.

Mei Ruo's dishes are very different from those of Yi Yunrui. However, according to Mei Ruo, all these dishes have their meanings.

“Xia Ning, all these are what Rui likes to eat. You can keep them in mind.” Mei Ruo smiles gently. It sounds nice but hurting.

“Hum, I see.” It turns out to be these eight dishes. Xia Ning will keep them in mind.

Yi Yunrui's face is darkened with displeasure, “Commissar Mei, I only liked these dishes in the past.”

“Did you?” Mei Ruo gives a brighter smile, “Well, you liked them when you were with me in the past.”

Yi Yunrui changes his color. He anxiously glances at Xia Ning, who is happily enjoying the foods. He feels released.

Does Mei Ruo come today to make the challenge?

Yi Yunrui takes up the bowl and picks a piece of sweet and sour rib for Xia Ning.

Mei Ruo has her food, as if she doesn't see the intimate interactions of the other two.

Xia Ning eats the rice in mouthfuls and keeps an eye on Mei Ruo with glances. She sees clearly that Mei Ruo's hands slightly tremble.

Mei Ruo looks calm. She is just pretending that.

During the dinner, except for Xia Ning, neither Mei Ruo nor Yi Yunrui feels happy.

After supper, Xia Ning collects the dishes and chopsticks. Yi Yunrui pushes her away gently, “You go to sit in the living room. I will do the washing.”

Mei Ruo blinks her eyes, “When the wife is at home, how can the husband do this kind of things.”

Yi Yunrui is going to respond, while Xia Ning says, “Hehe, we normally do the washing together. But it is cold today. My husband doesn't want me to touch the cold water. Isn't this called harmonious couple?

Hearing this, Mei Ruo darkens her eyes and turns to take a seat in the living room.

Yi Yunrui looks at Xia Ning gently. He whispers to Xia Ning, “I go to prepare the fruits plate. You sit to have a rest.”

Commander Yi enters the kitchen, while Xia Ning sits by Mei Ruo. She shrugs her shoulders when she is aware that Mei Ruo is looking at her surprisingly as if she is a monster.

Yes, she may not be a qualified wife, but she doesn't think that there is anything wrong to get along with Yi Yunrui in this way.

“My husband is preparing the fruits plate in the kitchen. It will be ready soon” Xia Ning adds and smiles, as if she thinks that Mei Ruo hasn't been shocked seriously enough.

It is unbelievable to Mei Ruo and she is getting angry.

“How can you ask Rui to make the fruits plate?” She cries. She stands up and wants to rush into the kitchen.

Xia Ning stops her, “My husband likes to do it. You may sit down.”

Mei Ruo is furious. She gasps heavily and says, “Xia Ning, Rui is the Army Commander. How can you burden him with this kind of trivialities?

“He is the Army Commander when he is in the Military Region. But when at home, he is my husband. What is wrong for a husband to take care of his wife?” Xia Ning says slowly.

“You!” Mei Ruo can't reply. After quite a while, she says, “You should keep your husband's dignity when there is a guest here.”

Xia Ning darkens her eyes and pushes Mei Ruo to sit down, “This is my husband. Don't burden yourself with him.”

Hearing this, Mei Ruo widens her eyes, “How…how can you say so…”

“Have you given enough lectures? This is my place. If you don't like it, you can go out.” Xia Ning says angrily.

She thought that Mei Ruo was an educated woman. Why does she like to judge the wife of other?

Even though she may like the husband. How can she do it so shamelessly?

Soon, Yi Yunrui gets the fruits plate ready. He puts them on the table and finds the two women are in fierce invisible fight.

He comes to Xia Ning and holds her. Yi Yunrui says to Mei Ruo, “Commissar Mei, please have some fruits.”

Mei Ruo closes her eyes to calm herself down. Xia Ning, you will know me later.

Mei Ruo takes a piece of apple and bites it. She glances at Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning's intimate interactions. The flame of jealousy is going to burn her down.

Finally, Mei Ruo finishes the apple. She wipes her hands and says, “Actually, I am here today to ask whether Commander Yi remembers one thing.”

Yi Yunrui is surprised, “What do you mean?”

Mei Ruo freezes her eyes and says word by word, “Three years ago, when I was shot, you gave me a promise!”

Yi Yunrui's heart tightens and his eyes darken.

Three years ago, he went out with Mei Ruo for a mission. They were attacked by terrorists and Mei Ruo took a shot for him. In the emergency room of the hospital, he said that if Mei Ruo could wake up, he would grant her a request.

He was very clear at that time about what Mei Ruo wanted.

But now he has got married. Does Mei Ruo want to have her request granted at this point of time.

“Do you want to talk about that now?” Yi Yunrui sounds extremely cold. He stares at Mei Ruo.

He is warning her.

“Yes!” Aware of Yi Yunrui's warning, Mei Ruo decides to ignore it. She grits her teeth, “I am here today for your promise!”

“Sweetheart, you may go to the bedroom.” Yi Yunrui talks to Xia Ning in a gentle voice.

“There is no need. She has to be here listening.” Mei Ruo says coldly.

Xia Ning lifts her eyebrows. She can guess what it is from Mei Ruo's tone.

Is she going to take Yi Yunrui by force?

“Mei Ruo!” Yi Yunrui bursts into a fury. “What do you want to do?”

“I am telling you now!” Staring at Yi Yunrui, Mei Ruo says word by word, “You want to transfer me. OK. I have written the application for that. It depends on the Military Department's decision for approval. But before I leave, I have to try something.”

Yi Yunrui's eyes are grey with anger. He looks at her for quite a while, “You know clearly. There won't be any result!”

Mei Ruo feels her heart ache. She smiles bitterly, “It is all right. I know.”

“…” Yi Yunrui's eyes are deep and dark, “Mei Ruo, this is your last chance. You should think it over.”

“No, I don't need to.”

Mei Ruo almost cries. She turns to look at Xia Ning, as if she would like to swallow Xia Ning alive.

Xia Ning blinks her eyes, not expecting that Mei Ruo can lose the control of herself. It tells how important Yi Yunrui is to her.

It looks as if Xia Ning has taken away her husband.

“Yi Yunrui, listen carefully.” Mei Ruo stares at Xia Ning fiercely and says word by word, “My request is that you divorce Xia Ning.”

Hearing this, Yi Yunrui changes his color. He shouts, “Mei Ruo! Are you out of your mind?”

“Hahaha!” Mei Ruo hears Yi Yunrui's shout. She laughs, as if she is insane, “Yi Yunrui, you owe me that! This is my request. Do you hear clearly? I want you to divorce Xia Ning!”

Yi Yunrui clenches his fists tightly and the blue veins stand out on his temples. His face darkens, as if a storm is coming, “You are making nonsense!”

At this moment, all his impressions about Mei Ruo collapse and crumble.

Being always elegant and gentle, nice and polite, how can she become crazy like this?

Mei Ruo blinks her eyes, “Yi Yunrui, you know all the time how I feel about you and you obviously like me too. Why don't you admit? Is it because of Yi Yuntian?”
