Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband

Qingxin Garden residential community can be considered to be a middle-to-high level resident community. Those who live here basically lead quite a good life. But Fang Zheng’s apartment…It is quite large. And it is clean and tidy. The problem is that it is too clean and tidy!

In the living room, there are only several chairs and a table. There are also some essential house facilities. Except for a few everyday items, there is nothing. Even walking echoes in the empty room!

Xia Ning is stunned.

What happened to Fang Zheng’s home?

“Director Xia, my apartment is simple and poor. Sorry. If you don’t mind, please sit down for some tea.”

At the time, Fang Zheng has got the tea prepared and put it on the table.

Xia Ning nods and goes inside. Yi Yunrui follows her. But he has only taken a few steps when his phone rings.

It is the commander in the military region.

Yi Yunrui slightly frowns. He turns to the corridor and presses the answer button.

Xia Ning sits down. She takes over the tea from Fang Zheng for a sip. For instant, she doesn’t know how to start the conversation.

Aware of Xia Ning’s expression, Fang Zheng is frank instead, “Director Xia, you are surprised. Well. When I was a little boy, my parents passed away. My grandmother raised me up. Now, she is in bad health and all the money is basically spent in buying medicines and seeing doctors. That is why my apartment looks like this.”

Xia Ning glances around. It reminds her of the words “poor house with only four walls”.

Those are not exaggerated at all for the apartment.

It seems that Fang Zheng’s grandmother is seriously ill.

Suddenly, Xia Ning remembers one thing. She asks, “You don’t have enough money for your grandmother’s illness. Do you?”

Fang Zheng hesitates for a while, “I can barely make do.”

“If you can only barely make do, why did you quit?”

Fang Zheng pauses. His expression is complicated. He is silent.

Xia Ning is not impatient. What happened to Fang Zheng doesn’t seem as simple as it showed. She has to give him some time to slow down.

At the time, Yi Yunrui comes in. Fang Zheng at once greets, “Commander Yi, please have a seat…”

“It is fine.” Yi Yunrui waves his hand. He goes to Xia Ning, “Sweetheart, I have to go back to the military region for some things. I will call you.”

Xia Ning nods, “Business matters. You may go.”

Yi Yunrui sighs in his heart. Reluctantly, he is going to leave.

If not because it is really urgent, he is unwilling to leave so soon.

The general commander called and told him that his parents were in the military region.

Yi Yunrui feels his head aching badly. Instinctively, he thinks it must be something about his mother.

As it is said, a just official can’t judge the family stuff. Didn’t his father pick up his mother? Seemingly, his mother said some things and his father went to the military region.

Yi Yunrui pats on Xia Ning, “I will call you as soon as I finish.”

Then, Yi Yunrui turns around to leave.

“Director Xia, your husband is like a crane among chicken. You made a good choice.”

Xia Ning mildly smiles. She puts down the teacup, “Assistant Fang, to be honest, I come here to see what happens and I want to talk with you frankly.”

Fang Zheng hesitates for a little while, “Director Xia, actually, I know what you want to ask. I quit…for my own decision. It has nothing to do with other people. Director Xia, you don’t need to check further. I quit and it finishes.”

Xia Ning lifts her eyebrows, realizing that Fang Zheng is telling some truth by his word instead!

It is obvious that Fang Zheng is hiding something. He is also protecting something. He asks Xia Ning not to check further. Actually, he doesn’t want those behind to be dug up.

“Do you think that it really finishes?” Xia Ning asks directly, “Do you think that those people will give you a break because you quit?”

Not expecting Xia Ning will ask so directly, Fang Zheng is shocked. He murmurs, “Director, I really…really don’t understand what you are talking about.”

“We are alone here. I may speak out clearly. Your family is not rich. You relied on the salary from World Era Weekly to support the living expense. You kept being patient for many years. Now, you have the opportunity to get promoted, but you draw back. Obviously, there must be some reasons. I may not care about the reasons, but I believe that you are escaping from some things. I can tell you directly. It is not as simple as you thought!

Fang Zheng holds the cup tightly with his mouth closed. After quite a while, he says, “My grandmother is in a bad health. I don’t want her to worry about me. I left World Era Weekly. I can look for another job. However, if I agree to tell you what you asked, I won’t have peace at home.”

“You mean something about Supervisor Guo?”

Hearing the words “Supervisor Guo”, Fang Zheng is shocked and mildly turns away his face.

Xia Ning vaguely lifts her lips. Well. She has found the key point.

Ever since the next day after she went back to the department, she has made the reorganization plan. She has got her own ideas about the supervisors in her department.

She aims to get the whole entertainment department united. She will kick out those who get in her way.

Li Shi is the first one.

The next…

“Director Xia, there are some things that I can’t tell you…”

“It is not up to you.” Xia Ning interrupts, “I believe that Supervisor Guo has known my visiting you. No matter you do anything or not, he will get rid of you first. You should think it over carefully!

Xia Ning hits the point. Fang Zheng suddenly lifts to look at Xia Ning. If it really goes as Xia Ning says, then his condition …”

No. His grandmother is old. He has to keep her unworried!

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng makes up his mind. He says decisively, “Director Xia, we have come to this stage. If you have any instructions, please tell me directly. I will cooperate with you. I only want to be safe, at least, don’t let my grandmother know anything relative to my work.”

Xia Ning achieves what she wanted. She leans to Fang Zheng, “Tell me honestly, did you ever get involved in what Supervisor Guo did?”

In the headquarters of C military region.

When Yi Yunrui arrives, the general commander has left C City because of a sudden order. His father Yi Xian and his mother Zheng Yao are sitting in the General Commander Office.

His mother looks angry, while his father frowns and sits quietly beside her.

“Dad, Mom.” Yi Yunrui greets politely. At the time, Zhang Hai sends them some tea.

“Where is Xia Ning?” Zheng Yao asks angrily at once.

Yi Yunrui freezes his eyes. He lifts his head, “Mom, we are in the military region. Please mind your words and behaviors!”

Zheng Yao feels stuck. She is going to lose her temper. But she sees her husband’s complaining in a glimpse and she had to restrain herself.

Her husband is tolerant of her in everything, but not when they are in the military region.

“Dad, you come to the C military region. What are you here for?”

Yi Xian opens his mouth. But he changes the topic, “I come to see you with your mother. I just chatted with the general commander for a little while. There are quite some schedules in the following months. Have you got ready for that?”

“Everything is ready. Dad, don’t worry.” Yi Yunrui surely understands what his father is implying. He means the security work in the coming People’s Congresses and the Economic and Trade Conference.

Yi Yunrui nods.

“Rui, Mayor Yin visited Yi Villa. Do you know that?”
