Chapter 565 The End of the Yin Family

Xia Ning is shocked at Yi Yunrui’s words.

Why is Commander Yi so sensitive?

Hang on. Her husband was talking weirdly. Maybe he was trying to coax some words out of her?

“Heh!” She knows that Yi Yunrui is not that sensitive unless he appears so intentionally, “It’s up to you. I’m tired and going to take a shower.”

Xia Ning says, walking towards the bathroom. She is dragged to the seat by Yi Yunrui after only a few steps.

“How can you be so cruel?” Squinting his beautiful eyes, Yi Yunrui lowers his voice to make it more seductive, “Dear, are you sure you are going to dump me here?”

Surrounded by the masculine aura, Xia Ning swallows. She opens her mouth but holds herself back from saying the words “of course not”.

“I’m only about to shower. Why so fussy?”

Yi Yunrui pauses and starts to laugh. He pats on his wife’s shoulder, “Alright, go and take a shower. You look tired today. Go to bed quickly after the shower.”

Tired? She does not think so. But she does sleep a lot recently.

“Yin Tianyang, the former mayor of B City, is suspected to be involved in a bribery during his incumbency, and he is now under the investigation of the central government...”

The news lights up Xia Ning’s eyes. The sneaky old man finally pays for it!

Yi Yunrui contributes a lot to bringing down Yin Tianyang!

Ever since her being bullied, Yi Yunrui has been supporting her. Yin Jingyao, Yin Jingsi, and now Yin Tianyang. The three people from the Yin Family have reaped what they sowed so far. Her husband has played a big part behind the scene.

Heartened, Xia Ning holds her husband’s hands tightly. This pair of rough hands makes her feel warm and safe.

“Dear, thank you.”

Yi Yunrui softens his gaze and kisses his wife on her cheek, “My silly girl, no need for this.”

He is her man and is supposed to shield her. Whoever dares to bully his woman is being bold!

But it is even more complicated!

Under investigation? It is too easy on Yin Tianyang. That sneaky old man needs to pay for what he did twenty years ago!

What is inside the disc is enough for a life sentence for Yin Tianyang.

The day Yin Tianyang receives his sentence will be the day when the truth of what happened twenty years ago is unveiled.

This is also for his wife.

Though it might be a little late, he is still patient.

Xia Ning feels grateful and warm, lightly touching her husband’s beautiful face. She can only say “thank you” for what he has done. Apart from that, she has no idea what she can offer to show her gratitude.

“Dear, you have done so many things for me. I don’t know what I can do to show my gratitude. Maybe you can enlighten me on what I can do?”

Yi Yunrui raises his eyebrow at his wife’s caring gaze. He changes the subject, “Repay with your body.”

Xia Ning flushes at his words.

Men are always erotic like this.

“Don’t I do that already every night?” The fetus is stable after three months. And Yi Yunrui is more devoted than previously.

Yi Yunrui widens his smile, “I’d like to have some special treatment tonight.”

“Uh?”

“You take the initiative.” Yi Yunrui says, taking his wife’s hand to his chest, “And do everything you can to please me, yeah?”

Xia Ning gasps in her heart for what Commander Yi has said. How shameless!

“I… I should take a shower first.” Xia Ning tries to retrieve her hand, only to find it held tighter by Yi Yunrui.

“From now on.” Yi Yunrui suddenly brings up his wife to carry her to the bathroom, “Objection overruled!”

Jing Shu stands in the coffee shop WAITTINGFORYOU for a long time, hesitating to get in.

This afternoon, Lei Buyang spilt some coffee over Beitang Xiu, which worries her. Though she has only known Beitang Xiu for a short time and is from an entirely different background, she still wants to meet him.

She is here already. If Beitang Xiu does not want to see her, she will leave.

Having determined, Jing Shu walks in.

Though it is late at night, the coffee shop is still packed with celebrities.

She sees from a distance that Beitang Xiu is concentrating on making coffee at the bar counter.

Jing Shu finds a seat in an obscure corner. A waiter comes in a second.

“Coffee latte, please.”

“Ok, give me a second.” The waiter answers and then says, “Miss Jing, are you here for Mr. Beitang?”

Jing Shu smiles awkwardly, “Not really. I’m here for the coffee.”

The waiter nods and leaves. He talks to Beitang Xiu when passing the bar counter. Beitang Xiu takes a look at her.

Beitang Xiu looks away before Jing Shu wants to wave at him. Awkwardly, Jing Shu scratches her head with her hand in the air.

He is a young master and she is an ordinary person. This coffee shop is for the posh people. No one will give her extra attention.

Mr. Beitang is nice enough to teach her techniques. It can even be because she is Sister Xia’s assistant. Plus, Mr. Beitang was also mistreated by Lei Buyang. He definitely does not want to see her.

She really thinks too much. She should not be here tonight.

Before Jing Shu is about to leave, the coffee latte arrives. Jing Shu is surprised. She looks at other customers in the coffee shop. Those who came before her have not had their coffee. How come she is served first?

Maybe she is prioritized?

Jing Shu denies the thought a second later after it passes her mind.

She is nobody and can never be a priority! It must be someone else who makes the coffee for her.

But the coffee’s color and aroma suggest that it is Beitang Xiu who made it.

Jing Shu looks at the bar counter again. This time she looks into Beitang Xiu’s eyes. He is looking at her as well.

Jing Shu feels some sparks trigger an explosion in her heart when their eyes meet.

This time she is the one who looks away.

The eyes are bright as obsidian and charming enough to take away her soul if she does not look away.

But she still feels Beitang Xiu’s gaze.

She takes a sip of the coffee, which tastes familiar with its long-lasting, rich flavor. Jing Shu cannot help but close her eyes. It is so tasty.

She does not mind spending her whole life studying to achieve the skill.

She easily falls for the coffee.

When she opens her eyes, she finds a piece of blueberry cake on her table.

Hang on. She did not ask for the cake.

When she is about to ask the waiter, she finds a note on the cake, “Shu, it’s quite busy. Just give me a minute. By Xiu.”

It is so sweet. Jing Shu purses her lips and smiles. She looks at the bar counter and Beitang Xiu nods at her with a smile.

So Beitang Xiu was busy making her coffee and cake just now that he did not look at her.

Beitang Xiu is treating her as an important guest!

Jing Shu feels happy but is worried at the same time.

Is it because of her identity that Beitang Xiu treats her this way?

The coffee in this coffee shop is unique in the city. Though it takes longer to wait for their coffee than in other shops, the customers are not complaining. They say “thank you” with gratitude every time they are served the coffee.

Jing Shu sneaked out of her home without her mother knowing it. She will not wake her mother up as long as she can keep it quiet when returning.

It is around eleven now, and the customers are leaving. Later, seeing no more customers, Beitang Xiu comes and sits in front of Jing Shu

“Sorry for the wait.”

“Sorry for jumping in at your work. I shouldn’t be here that early.”

“It should be someone else’s shift. But he had an emergency. So, I swapped mine with his. I was supposed to be on a break tonight.” The waiter brings them some lemon juice, for which Beitang Xiu says thanks.

“If you’re on a break, will you still be in the coffee shop?”

Beitang Xiu pauses, “If I have some other business, I might not be in the shop. Shu, you can call me beforehand next time you come and visit me, in case I’m not in.”

“Nothing important. I just want to visit the shop.” Jing Shu bites her lips and takes another sip of the coffee.

“It’s gone cold. Don’t drink it.” Beitang Xiu says and takes away her mug. He says to the waiter, “Could you give us some hot milk, please?”

“No worries. I’m leaving anyway...”

“It’s already past eleven. It’s too dangerous for you to go home alone. I’ll send you home.”

“It’s fine. I can take care of myself.” She holds a black belt in karate and can easily take down three to four adult males when she is at her prime.

“I have said I will send you home.” Beitang Xiu says with a firmer tone and a hint of authority.

Jing Shu can say nothing.

Beitang Xiu is friendly, but his behaviors suggest that he is posh. His being superior is clearly displayed in his simple words.

The hot milk arrives. Beitang Xiu’s gaze softens. He says plainly, “Now have some milk. And give me a moment. I’ll talk to my colleague before sending you home.”

“Do you need some help?” Jing Shu quickly says, “Cleaning or other stuff.”

“They’ll do the cleaning. You can help yourself with your coffee.” Beitang Xiu stands up. He turns back after a few steps as if he has come up with something, “We can talk about it in the car if you have any issue.”

In the car...

Jing Shu blinks her eyes. Beitang Xiu’s words sound so romantic.

Jing Shu and Beitang Xiu leave the coffee shop at eleven-thirty.

It is pretty cold on a mid-autumn night. Beitang Xiu is only wearing his uniform but is not bothered by the cold.

On the other hand, Jing Shu has buttoned up her coat and worn the hat to make herself warm.

“Mr. Beitang, are you cold?” She feels cold already seeing him wearing little cloth.

“No.” Beitang Xiu says and puts his hand on the back of Jing Shu’s, “My hand is warm, innit?”

Jing Shu widens her eyes with surprise. Beitang Xiu’s hands are so warm, even with little clothing. Maybe he is using a heating pad?

Jing Shu nods. Beitang Xiu holds Jing Shu’s tiny hands in his palm, “Does it feel warmer this way?”
