Chapter 351 He was panicked!
The main room suddenly became lively.
Han Dixing and Duan Yanfei sat side by side on a high bench. Before Xia Yunshu entered the room, they had already picked up their chopsticks, showing no sign of politeness at all.
Old Mrs. Yang vaguely heard that a distinguished guest had come home, and brought out a plate of fried beans.
Upon asking, she learned that they were Wang Ziru's brother-in-law and future sister-in-law. The old lady was shocked and said, "So the young man is Han Bingtuan's younger brother? Oh, what should we do? We didn't even have a good meal for lunch."
"It's okay, it's okay. Young people should eat more vegetables, which will be good for their health." Wang Ziru said with a smile.
"How can we do that?" Old Lady Yang looked at Han Dixing and the stylishly dressed girl sitting next to him and said with a wry smile, "Zi Ru, you stay with them and eat first. I'll go get some bacon and stir-fry some chili peppers."
Wang Ziru tried to stop them again and again, but Old Man Yang and his wife insisted on taking down the bacon hanging on the earthen wall of the stove at home, cutting a piece and cooking it, and then frying a plate of bacon to entertain the guests.
Since she couldn't persuade the old couple, she let them cook the bacon. Wang Ziru sat next to Xia Yunshu, holding a bowl of potato rice.
During the dinner, Wang Ziru, Han Dixing and Duan Yanfei chatted and laughed happily.
I also asked them some common questions like when they plan to get married and what kind of wedding gifts they would like to receive.
He glanced at the girl named Xia who was sitting with her back to the door and against the light.
"Xia Yunshu, don't be polite. Come and eat the vegetables. These are all grown by the villagers. They are very fresh." Wang Ziru saw that the young couple opposite had already eaten the rice and vegetables in big mouthfuls. But when she looked at Xia Yunshu, she saw that she was holding chopsticks in her hand and didn't eat any rice.
I just wonder why this girl is so dull.
Duan Yanfei picked up the plate of corn kernels and put some of the fragrant corn kernels directly into his own bowl.
When he raised his eyes, he saw the doubt and question marks in Wang Ziru's eyes, and then he boasted in front of Wang Ziru about his prediction that Xia Yunshu would most likely marry her uncle.
"Who? She... married my uncle?!" Upon hearing this, Wang Ziru almost had a piece of potato in her mouth stuck in her throat.
"No, what's that look?" Duan Yanfei said angrily, pointing at Xia Yunshu and boasting, "Your family is far inferior to hers! She went to Shangjing when she was very young, lived in a military compound, and was proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy, and painting."
"…"This person is proficient in everything from playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so someone arranged for her to marry Duan Suili?
The matchmaker's mouth is a deceitful ghost.
A girl who is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting at least has a touch of spirituality and the scent of books. How could she look like this?!
And with Duan Suili's picky eyes, how could he be interested in someone like her?
Even Wang Ziru was not sure that she could make a man like Duan Suili, who was dominating the business world of Yixi, fall in love with her.
There were complicated expressions on Wang Ziru's face and in her eyes.
In order to prove that what he said was not a lie, Duan Yanfei nudged Han Dixing with his elbow and said, "She still doesn't believe it. Say something."
Han Dixing smiled gently on his moist face and pushed up his glasses. "Yan Fei didn't lie to you. I met Xia Yunshu when I went to Beijing for the summer vacation a few years ago. I heard that she has been living in Uncle Xia's house. Her uncle is also a very prestigious cadre in the army."
Finally, when he looked at Xia Yunshu, he seemed to be hesitant to speak.
He had a vague idea of the irreconcilable situation between Xia Guowang and his elder brother Han Tingzhang.
So when facing Xia Yunshu, Han Dixing always showed the courtesy and humility of a Han man, but that was all, and he would not have too much contact with her.
"Living in Shangjing since childhood, living and studying with the children of officials in the Beijing circle?" Miss Xia's life trajectory did make Wang Ziru a little surprised. She sighed, "Wow! How enviable."
After all this fuss, it turns out they are all old acquaintances!
Wang Ziru stopped eating and bit the chopsticks lightly, not knowing what to say to hide the look of shock on her face.
However, no matter how Duan Yanfei endorsed Miss Xia, she really didn't see that she had the unique temperament of living in a big compound in Beijing.
Logically speaking, the families of cadres in the Beijing circle are well-off, and their children can also see the world.
But it definitely won’t be Xia Yunshu’s style.
Xia Yunshu was nervous and scared, her fingers tightly gripping the chopsticks. After a long time, she reached out to pick up a bean and put it in the bowl.
Seeing this scene, Wang Ziru no longer enthusiastically invited her to eat, but just focused on chatting with Han Dixing.
And in Kunming City, more than 100 kilometers away.
After lunch, Duan Yanzhi lay lazily on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, resting.
Suddenly, I heard Baoer's voice coming from the corridor outside.
The unruly and cold phoenix eyes suddenly opened, and he turned his head to look outside the open door of the ward, and saw two small figures appear there, with a bit of uncertainty.
"Baoer! You're here?" A rough voice shouted with a bit of joy.
Bao Er also saw the rough uncle lying on the hospital bed, "Commander uncle! Is it really you?"
"Yes, look, don't I look funny like this?" Commander Duan smiled, and casually put his slender bare arms on the edge of the bed, waving to the little guy.
Baoer ran into the ward, jumped to the bedside, and was held by Commander Duan.
Behind him, Fu Jiqiu walked slowly to the door. The young man still didn't like dealing with this kind of situation, so he didn't go in.
Han Suijing warned him, "Just play in the corridor, don't run around."
"Yeah." Fu Jiqiu nodded, and retreated to a corner in the corridor where Commander Duan couldn't see him to play by himself.
Han Suijing followed him into the ward and saw no one else in the ward. "Commander! Is there no one to accompany you?"
"My cousin went to the bathroom." Commander Duan replied, hugging the little guy, rubbing his face and teasing the child, "Did you miss me?"
"I did, but when we came back two days ago, mom said that Commander Uncle was injured, so we couldn't come in to see you." Although Baoer is still young, he expressed things very clearly.
Commander Duan admired Wang Ziru for this point, as she taught her children in a very graceful and elegant manner.
Commander Duan couldn't help but think of Xia Yunshu, whom he had just met yesterday.
That humble and gloomy look made his brows wrinkle.
Commander Duan touched the cute little baby's tender face and said to her, "It must be boring for Fu Jiqiu to be alone outside. Go play with him and don't run too far away, okay."
Beside the bed, the little head rubbed against Commander Duan's arm for a few times.
With a sly look in his eyes, he turned slightly, nodded, and said in a baby voice, "Okay."
Just after sending Bao'er away, Commander Duan's cousin returned to the ward after going to the bathroom.
"Go tell my uncle to bring the person over."
"Well."
Commander Duan watched his cousin hurried out, and cast a deep look at his subordinate standing upright in front of him. After a while, he said in a deep voice, "When we went to the capital for a meeting at the beginning of the year, did you meet Xia Yunshu?"
"Xia Yunshu..." Han Suijing frowned, not understanding why his boss suddenly mentioned a woman who had nothing to do with them.
Moreover, he didn't want to recall the terrible impression Xia Yunshu left on him the last time he met her.
Commander Duan observed the changing expressions on his subordinates' faces calmly, and said cheerfully in a rough voice, "Yesterday, Xia Yunshu came to my ward. Do you want to know what she said to me?"
"Commander, who you meet is none of my business." Han Suijing ignored the people and things that had nothing to do with him.
"It really has nothing to do with you?"
The two men in the ward were in a stalemate as soon as they met each other after just three sentences.
Han Suijing looked back outside the ward and could vaguely hear two children playing in the corridor. He turned around and looked at his superior with a moist gaze, "Commander, if you have something to say, just say it. You called me today specifically. Is there something else you want to say?"
"You guessed right!" Commander Duan's sharp eyes flashed with coldness, and he glanced at Han Suijing, "Xia Yunshu told me those words. According to her, she also told you about it. What do you think of her?"
Suddenly, Han Suijing's shoulders trembled slightly and his pupils shrank suddenly.
"Seeing your shocked reaction, I guessed that Xia Yunshu really told you that she is your real fiancée." Commander Duan said in a faint voice.
"She, she's mentally ill. Commander, do you believe this?"
"Whether you believe it or not is not up to me." Commander Duan sighed, and then a cold smile appeared on his gloomy face, "What kind of woman is your fiancée, what kind of personality she has, how she behaves in the world, these things, you know best."
After a pause, he snorted coldly, "So, when you face a woman who is completely different from the past, you, who is so smart, will you have no doubts?"
Han Suijing's blood froze and his heart went cold at his boss's words.
Was he questioning him, why did he want to marry Ziru even though he knew Xia Yunshu existed?
"Why don't you say anything? Are you waiting for her to come and see you and Bao Er before you can open your mouth?"
The man standing in front of the bed widened his eyes in astonishment and said in a lost voice: "Commander, what do you mean? Let Xia Yunshu come here to see me and Baoer?!"
Is he crazy too?
At this moment, Han Suijing has already realized that he has fallen into the trap set by his boss!
"Don't worry, just wait a moment, your uncle will bring her over." Commander Duan said.
Han Suijing felt an indescribable pain in his heart, which surged out from the depths of his heart and reached his throat. In the end, it helplessly turned into a heavy sigh that got stuck in his body, unable to be expressed in words.
It seems that there is no way to avoid it today, but that’s fine, since they have carefully arranged this meeting.
You'll see. To him, no matter how absurd the words outsiders say are, he will not believe them.
Han Suijing simply sat down in the ward and waited quietly for the Duan family to bring Xia Yunshu over.
An unknown amount of time had passed before Commander Duan's cousin returned to the ward and said anxiously, "My uncle told you to wait a moment. The person he sent to pick up Xia Yunshu from the hotel came back and said that Xia Yunshu had gone out to play with Yan Fei."
Commander Duan narrowed his eyes, "Duan Yanfei is not going to work today?"
"I heard that she had two holidays, so she took Han Dixing out to play."
Han Suijing suddenly jumped up from his stool in shock, "Did they go to the special forces? On our way back, Baoer said he saw his uncle sitting in a military vehicle..."
"What did you say?!" Commander Duan's previous calmness completely disappeared, replaced by an extremely shocked look.
Just at this time, Li Junfeng took a few books from the family compound and brought them to the commander.
When they saw Li Junfeng, Han Suijing and his boss asked at the same time: "Did you see Duan Yanfei go to the troops?"
"Ah? Duan Yanfei?" Li Junfeng was stunned, then smiled bitterly, "I heard that she is on vacation today. Look, she took Han Dixing and the girl from the Xia family to the special forces for a tour in the military supply vehicle. They should have arrived a long time ago by now."
Han Suijing's legs immediately went weak and a deep sense of bitterness arose in his heart.
He fell down on the stool.
Commander Duan was completely panicked. Seeing Han Suijing's shameless appearance, he roared like thunder:
"What are you still doing sitting there? Go make a phone call and don't let that lunatic from the Xia family see Bao'er's mother!"
