Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband

Chapter 459 What on Earth Have You Done?

Zheng Yao says in a decisive voice. Xia Ning knew that Zheng Yao didn’t like her. However, when she finds Zheng Yao say so while Yi Yunrui is here, she realizes that Zheng Yao regards her as an enemy.

“Mother, what my baby should be surnamed if not Yi?” Yi Yunrui asks motionlessly. He can’t sound calmer when he speaks.

“It may be whatever but not Yi! I won’t admit the baby given birth by that tricky woman! Not to mention allowing the baby to enter the Yi family!” Zheng Yao grits her teeth when she says. As if there is something pressing on her chest, she can hardly breathe for an instant.

“Aunt Zheng!” Mei Ruo notices that. She strokes her back to comfort her at once, “Aunt Zheng, please don’t be angry. You are the hostess of the Yi family. To be angry about some unimportant people is simply humiliating your dignity.”

Mei Ruo has just finished her words when she suddenly sees a cold light flash in front of her. Unconsciously, she trembles. She lifts and sees Yi Yunrui looking at her. Hatred is all she sees from the deep of his eyes!

It bangs inside her brain. Mei Ruo lowers her head and doesn’t dare look back at Yi Yunrui.

His eyes seem to be able to kill her.

“Tricky woman?” Yi Yunrui says coldly, “Mother, you have got one by your side.”

Zheng Yao freezes for an instant, then she remembers the one by her side is Mei Ruo, “Rui, what are you talking about?!”

Yi Yunrui gently smiles. He holds Xia Ning’s hand and sits down. He slowly says, “You may forgive your son. If I divorce, I will never think about re-marriage and I will never marry again! If I don’t do as you like, will I be expected to leave the Yi family, too?”

Yi Yunrui shows his stand very clearly by saying so. Zheng Yao stares at her son and can’t say a word for quite a while.

“Yi Yunrui, in order to defend this woman, do you really want to make your mother die of anger?”

“Mother, please don’t be angry.” Yi Yunrui motionlessly continues, “You give me two options. I may not but follow your instructions. I will do as you require. Why are you still so angry? Anyway, I want to ask you a question.”

Saying this, Yi Yunrui turns to look at his elder brother Yi Yunyi, “I heard that you didn’t like my future elder sister-in-law, either. If she has any conflicts with you in the future, will you say the same words to her? Will my elder brother and his wife also be kicked away from the Yi family? And recently, it seems that you also don’t like my eldest sister-in-law...”

Zheng Yao hears his speech. She bursts into a fury, “Rui, you don’t draw your elder brother and your eldest brother into this! It is true that I don’t like the little girl of the Gu family. However, compared with Xia Ning, she is much less tricky! As to Yuntian’s girlfriend, it doesn’t seem that he has made any decision. How can I dislike her? I just don’t like Xia Ning. You may not broaden the influence!”

“Tricky?” Yi Yunrui lifts his eyebrows, “If what Ning has done can be described as tricks. Then I may ask you. Which of us, my eldest brother, my elder brother, my father and I, hasn’t used any tricks? If we tell you all those tricks, I believe the one who wants to escape will be you.”

“If you come here to defend Xia Ning, you may leave now.”

Yi Yunrui freezes his face, “Mother, I won’t leave, because I haven’t finished my words! I may say it in this way. If Ning did intentionally try every trick to become the daughter-in-law of the Yi family, it is a great fortune for your son. Because I thought that I might never find someone who loved me so much. Mother, you should feel grateful for this.”

Saying this, Yi Yunrui holds Xia Ning’s hand, “Even if she is tricky, she can’t succeed if your son doesn’t allow her. Some tricky women spend years trying and still fail to become the daughter-in-law of the Yi family!”

Mei Ruo’s eyes darken. Unconsciously, she clenches her hands.

“No matter what you say, Xia Ning has to leave! Yi Yunrui, do you want your mother, or your wife?”

Yi Yunrui’s eyes gleam coldly. He stares at his mother, wondering from when she has become so irrational!

“Mother, I believe that my father will treat you kindly all your life! If I can’t even protect my wife, I will totally be a loser as a man! I won’t give up Xia Ning. I will never do that!”

He finishes his speech. The air feels tense in the ward and smells like strong gunpowder!

“Yi Yunrui... you, you heartless son...” Zheng Yao is so angry that she trembles. She points at Yi Yunrui and can hardly speak clearly.

At the time, the door of the ward is opened. A man with gray hair in a fine suit comes in. He looks very smart.

“Hello, everyone.” The old visitor bows to them, “I am Steward Zhou from the Dai’s mansion. Mr. Dai arranges a car outside. He invites you all to pay a visit to Dai’s mansion. He wants to talk with you about something.”

Everyone in the ward feels confused to hear Steward Zhou’s words. Zheng Yao frowns, “I have just got better. I don’t want to have this long-distance trip. Steward Zhou, please help to send my gratitude to Mr. Dai for his invitation...”

“Mrs. Yi.” Not waiting for Zheng Yao to finish her words, Steward Zhou says, “As a matter of fact, Mr. Dai sends me here deliberately to invite you to the Dai’s mansion. Besides Mr. Dai, there are also some other senior misters in the mansion. They were all Army Commander Yi’s previous seniors. They invited you sincerely. I hope you don’t refuse. Mr. Dai and the misters said that they had to see you there.”

Steward Zhou says so directly and clearly that even if Zheng Yao is unwilling to go, it is hard for her to refuse.

Those who are with Mr. Dai are all founders of the state. If Zheng Yao doesn’t go to meet them, she will have to bear some judgments.

Zheng Yao is silent. Steward Zhou continues, “Mrs. Yi, you don’t need to worry. The car is waiting outside the hospital. Everyone here is also invited to go together.”

Thirty minutes later, they are in the Dai’s mansion.

Supported by Mei Ruo, Zheng Yao gets off the car, followed by Yi Yunrui, Xia Ning and Yi Yunyi.

Steward Zhou leads the way and they all enter the living room of Dai’s mansion.

There are some old men sitting in the living room. The one in the middle is Dai Zhen. They are all in army uniforms. Their hair is gray, but they look as energetic and mighty as when they were young.

They don’t wear any medals on their uniforms, however, the ear and the star on their shoulders tell clearly the ranking they are in.

Ever since the foundation of the state, there are only a few Army Commanders. However, there are four of them here. It is a considerably powerful scene!

Zheng Yao feels her heart jump and her arrogance goes down at once. These people sit here. Even the chairman of the state will behave politely to them.

Dai Zhen sees them. He says, “Huang, Yang, Li, they are from Yi Villa. They are Yi Xian’s wife Zheng Yao, the second son Yunyi and the third son Yunrui, Yunrui’s wife Ning and this...” Dai Zheng smiles coldly, “She is Mei Ruo, the daughter of Deputy-chief of Staff Mei. She has some conflicts with the Yi Villa, especially with Yunrui.”

In an instant, Mei Ruo feels very embarrassed. Dai Zhen speaks with implication while those old misters are all wise. What Dai Zhen means is obvious.

Dai Zhen gives a brief introduction of the seniors to them. Zheng Yao and everyone sit down.

Steward Zhou serves tea to them. There are many people in the living room but all of them are silent.

Xia Ning has got a cup of warm milk in front of her. She drinks the milk and feels warm in her heart. Seemingly, Mr. Dai knows that she is pregnant.

Everyone is silent for quite a while. Finally, Zheng Yao loses her patience. She asks, “I wonder why Mr. Dai invites us to come here today.”

Dai Zhen puts down the teacup. He looks at Zheng Yao for quite a while and then says, “Zheng Yao, I didn’t know that you liked to be on TV. You are old, but you still like the games for young people.”

Hearing this, Zheng Yao’s face turns grey and then white. She responds, “Mr. Dai, I don’t understand what you mean.”

“Not understand?” Dai Zhen freezes his face. He says in a deep voice, “Zheng Yao, the Yi family is a decent family in C City and even in the whole nation. As the saying goes, the disputes inside a family should not be spread outside. Do you think it is necessary for you to talk in public about the conflicts between mother and daughter-in-law? In addition, Ning is pregnant. You speak so hard on her in public, what on earth do you want to do?”

Hearing this, Zheng Yao figures out the purpose of Dai Zhen’s inviting her here. The guilty feeling inside her heart disappears at once. She feels it justifiable for her to argue, “Mr. Dai, I respect you as a senior and a founder of the state. However, what you just mentioned is a family affair of Yi Villa. I will deal with the problem between Xia Ning and myself. What’s wrong with my putting it on the TV? It is not the business of outsiders!”

Does Dai Zhen get those seniors here for the purpose of giving her a lecture?

“Outsider?” Dai Zhen turns to look at Xia Ning. The emotions shown in the deep of his eyes look complicated. It looks that he feels sorry. He says, “Zheng Yao, may I ask why you don’t like Ning? I hope you tell me honestly.”

Zheng Yao almost responds with the words “It is none of your business”. However, under the staring of the seniors, even though she is displeased, she has to keep some of her manners. She responds, “Mr. Dai, I may repeat. This is a family affair of Yi Villa...”

“Don’t you feel ashamed to say it is a family affair of Yi Villa?” Dai Zhen says in a cold voice, “I don’t know whether it is your intention or not. Don’t you realize that many people are discussing the family affairs of Yi Villa now in private? It is right. In your eyes, I am an outsider. However, since it is about Ning, I am totally in your family affairs!”

Xia Ning and Zheng Yao both feel very surprised to hear his words. Xia Ning is just going to say something when Yi Yunrui holds her hand tightly to motion her not to speak for now.

Zheng Yao feels confused. She glances at Xia Ning and then turns to Dai Zhen, “Mr. Dai, what do you mean? What’s the relation between Xia Ning and you?”

Dai Zhen turns his bright eyes to look at Xia Ning. The words seem to be stuck in his throat. His lips tremble, but he doesn’t speak for quite a while.

He has been wrong for fifty years in this issue!

If not because he was injured and happened to meet her then, seemingly, the truth would be buried for all his life.

Zheng Yao is aware of Dai Zhen’s unstable emotions. She feels very confused. Suddenly, she remembers that Dai Zhen is isolated and lonely. However, he is kind to Xia Ning. Just now, it seemed that Dai Zhen had made up his mind to interfere in the issue. Can there be any secrets between Dai Zhen and Xia Ning?

She finds that Dai Zhen is in struggle while he can’t speak. Zheng Yao feels more suspicious of that. In an instant, Zheng Yao bursts into a fury. She ignores all the people there and slaps the table forcefully. She points at Xia Ning and asks, “Xia Ning, you bitch. What dirty things did you do again? Tell me honestly!”
