Medical Sovereign - Chapter 429
Chapter 429 A Wish Fulfilled
No matter what Zhao Xin thought, the relationships between all of them had returned to the same harmony when they first entered the school, after they confronted these enemies together this time.
To be exact, their grudges with Ding Ning had completely gone. They all took the initiative to give Ding Ning their contact information and shouted to party again another day
Naturally, Ding Ning agreed with a smile. Xiaoyao did not put on airs and sincerely apologized to everyone, making them overwhelmed by this unexpected kind act.
Fan Kun was more affected by this. After learning Xiaoyao’s uncommon background, he fell into great fear.
Others did not think that much. Instead, they winked at Ding Ning with mischievousness, making him quite speechless.
Although Xiaoyao called Ding Ning brother-in-law, she took his arm like what a koala bear does. This unabashed behavior gave them a lot of imagination. After all, the subtle relationship between a man and his wife’s younger sister was a topic that people would like to gossip about.
Their look at Ding Ning suggested that they knew he had an affair, making him quite guilty of himself. After stopping others from paying the bill and doing it himself, he took Xiaoyao’s hand and ran away, but the roar of laughter of the crowd came from behind.
“Lao Liu is extraordinary.”
Staring at Ding Ning’s back, Fan Kun said with a sigh.
“Right, God, this dinner costs more than 100,000, but Lao Liu paid the bill without hesitation. What a rich man!”
Affected by his living environment, Liu Jie was more sensitive about numbers and did not get Fan Kun’s implication, but cared more about the fact that why Ding Ning had suddenly become so rich.
“Lao San, you have the closest relationship with Lao Liu, so can you tell us something about him? He won the first prize in the lottery?”
Song Dong asked with deep eyes, somewhat envious and somewhat confused, pondering how to get along with him in the future.
“A pond is too small for a shining goldfish because it will turn into a dragon when a storm appears!”
Zhao Xin put his hands behind his back in a knot and said pretentiously.
“Clap!”
A sudden slap on the back of his head instantly broke his artistic conception. Ignoring Zhao Xin’s murderous eyes, Solemn panted, grinned, and squinting at him in a strongly drunk state, said, “Why think that much? A snake or a dragon? No matter what he can be, he is still our dormitory’s Lao Liu. You guys think too much.”
All others had odd expressions but then became enlightened. “The guy is the most unreliable one, but he told the truth of how to communicate with friends in just a few words: One should not change his attitude even when the social statuses of his friends have changed, one needs to do as he should do, and one should behave the same as he did in the past. Perhaps, this is the way Ding Ning wants to see most.”
Xiaoyao was sitting in a low-profile Porsche Cayenne, but that was only for her because a car, which was worth less than one million, was indeed an extremely low profile.
Xiaoyao was a little nervously looking at Ding Ning, who was expressionlessly driving and said timidly, “Brother-in-law, I was wrong. Don’t be angry with me, please!”
“What? Angry about what?”
Ding Ning came back from his contemplation, looking at Xiaoyao with confusion. Just now Xiaoyao had already apologized to him, so he couldn’t bear to be angry again, but when suddenly staying with Xiaoyao alone, he felt a little embarrassed and did not know what to talk about. Moments ago, his attention wandered only because he was thinking about tomorrow’s exhibition.
“Ah, you were not angry, but you kept a straight face, so I thought you were angry.”
Wearing an exaggerated expression, Xiaoyao patted her oversized chest and her breasts shook up and down with it. Seeing this, Ding Ning was absent-minded for a while, his eyeballs frozen. And he nearly drove the car into a gutter.
“Ah, brother-in-law, focus on the wheel.”
Red-faced, Xiaoyao cried in fear, but she was silently happy for a few moments. “It seems that I’m still attractive to my brother-in-law.”
Ding Ning hurriedly drove the car back on track but couldn’t help blushing. After a dry cough, he tried and found a topic. “Where do you live now?”
“Oh, I live in Sister Nuo’s apartment.”
Xiaoyao answered naturally, but in fact, she seemed to get butterflies in her stomach, and she imagined wildly, “Is it that my brother-in-law wants to get a room with me? Do I need to accept it?”
“Oh!”
Ding Ning answered and then fell into silence again. Hearing this, Xiaoyao, who was worried but was also full of expectations, had a complicated and elusive mind.
Silent for a while, Xiaoyao, biting her pink lips and lowering her head, said shyly, “Sister Nuo works overtime these days and won’t come home at night.”
“Oh!”
Ding Ning answered and then fell into silence again.
Xiaoyao was dumbfounded. “My hint is so obvious. Either going back to the apartment or getting a room is acceptable, but I’m wondering what this ‘oh’ means.”
Ding Ning was not silly and knew her love, but although he had long decided to seriously treat her as his beloved one, when he found that Childe Liu and others treated her with respect, he then became hesitant again.
If Xiaoyao were from an ordinary family, it would not be a big deal to take her as his extra wife, but she was apparently from an uncommon family, which meant that if he wanted to live with her, he would have to face more resistance.
The pressure was not the main reason, for the key problem was that Xiao Nuo and her were good sisters. If he stayed together with Xiaoyao while Xiao Nuo worked overtime, he would think that he betrayed Xiao Nuo.
So, when he and Xiaoyao arrived at Xiaoyao’s living place, he was ready to turn around and leave.
“Brother-in-law, you hate me, don’t you?”
Xiaoyao felt inexplicably depressed. She summoned up her courage to hold Ding Ning from behind and cried, “I was wrong, but I won’t dare anymore. Please forgive me.”
Ding Ning became stiff from head to toe, slowly turned around, held her crying face, pecked on her lips, and said softly, “How can I hate you?”
“Then, why are you unwilling to stay?”
Xiaoyao said as she sobbed, her eyes full of confusion and panic as if she was an injured fawn.
Ding Ning gently rubbed her baby skin-like tender face and wiped away her tears. “I just can’t persuade myself. When Nuonuo is not here, if you and I…”
“If Sister Nuo is here, I will have no chance to be with you.”
Xiaoyao learned his concern in seconds and was relieved, but she pouted with a hidden grudge like an unhappy woman without seeing her husband for a long time.
“I…”
Ding Ning wanted to explain but did not know how. Xiaoyao was one whom he naturally wanted to refuse maybe because they lacked the process of loving each other, but the more probable reason was that he would need to bear the responsibility.
“Oh!”
Red-faced, Xiaoyao didn’t give Ding Ning time to explain. Instead, she threw her arm around his neck, tipped her toes, tilted her head, and pressed her lips against his.
The surging love gradually warmed up and boiled in the light tipsy feeling. Although Ding Ning thought he had strong self-control, he still melted in her passion.
“I don’t want to care about anything anymore, and I’m going to die. You are a coquettish girl indeed.” Blank-minded, Ding Ning opened the door and carried Xiaoyao to…
The clouds in the sky seemed shy and blocked the face of the moon silently, making the earth fall into darkness. The space between heaven and earth became quiet except that the sounds of insects went on with the constant shaking of the Cayenne…
A long time later, the Cayenne gradually stopped shaking, but Xiaoyao had become as soft as a pile of mud. Carrying her in his arms, Ding Ning sent her home.
This night, Xiaoyao seemed to return to her mother’s arms where she lay many years ago. She swam happily in the warm water, flew as much as she wished in the sky, and giving up all her reserve and shyness, shouted passionately.
The autumn sunshine finally came in the morning. When the first beam of light went through the window and fell on the big warm bed, the long eyelashes on a delicate little face flapped time after time under the dark hair. Slowly, she opened her eyes, which were slightly confused, staring blankly at the ceiling.
The scene seemed to become still. After a long time, Xiaoyao then vaguely thought of last night’s madness after drinking, and a shy and satisfied red color climbed upon her cheeks.
She touched the quilt beside her. It seemed that he was still there because she could feel his warmth at her fingertips. Ashamed, she made a coy sound and held her blood-red face, but she was very satisfied because her wish was fulfilled. “Finally, I took my brother-in-law to my arms!”
Lazily lying in bed, she was unwilling to get up and recollected the moments that had just passed for a very long time. Not until her stomach rumbled did she reluctantly climb out of bed. Having no time to wash her face or rinse her mouth, she picked up the breakfast Ding Ning had prepared for her as a beloved from the side of the bed and devoured it, her smile blooming silently like a flower and her happiness overflowing her heart.
She was happy, but she also had physical pain. This gave her mental struggle, so she decided to take a day off and have a good sleep to let her physical strength recover, waiting for her man’s coming next time.
In the morning, all the spaces of the underground parking lot in front of Purple Star Pavilion Club were occupied, and the security guards had to guide the cars coming later to the outdoor parking lot in the backyard of the club.
“Who do so many people come to the club in the morning? It doesn’t usually open in the morning, does it? What good business!”
A passer-by saw so many people and couldn’t help asking curiously.
“Don’t you see the banner? Ninghai’s big refrigeration equipment manufacturers will hold a product exhibition here today. I’ve heard that a business mission from Zhongdong wants to choose a cooperation partner from these manufacturers.”
Someone who knew it explained kindly, “So many refrigeration equipment manufacturers from other places have come here from thousands of miles away.”
“It is only a business mission from Zhongdong, isn’t it? Is it worth putting up such a big show?”
A pedestrian asked with confusion.
“That’s something you just don’t understand. This seems to be only simple business cooperation, but it is a big contract offered by the Dibai Sailing Hotel to renew its refrigeration equipment. Anyone who gets this project will become rich.”
Another one who knew it said with admiration.
“Dibai Sailing Hotel? My God, that is the only seven-star hotel in the whole world! There are so many foreign manufacturers, but why did they pay a special visit to our Ninghai?”
Someone shouted in surprise.
“You know nothing. The renewal of the famous Dibai Sailing Hotel’s refrigeration equipment does not even have too much profit, but what they take more seriously is the invisible business value of this project.”
Someone who really knew the inside story disclosed.
“What invisible business value?”
Other passers-by asked modestly.
“The first stop of the Zhongdong business mission is Ouzhou, and the second is our Shenzhou. It is said that the famous refrigeration brands in the world have failed to satisfy them. Then, we know their requirements are really harsh. After all, Dibai Hotel is the only seven-star hotel in the world, and what they choose must be the top refrigeration equipment in the world. This has drawn the attention of refrigeration manufacturers all over the world. It is said that some big foreign brand manufacturers have come to this exhibition from thousands of miles away and even offered to replace Dibai Hotel’s refrigeration equipment for free, just hoping to get this project.”
The one who knew this said proudly, “Under these circumstances, if some refrigeration equipment manufacturer is chosen by Dibai Sailing Hotel, this is equivalent to free international publicity for once. The manufacturer will immediately become the new favorite of the international refrigeration equipment industry and gain success overnight. Don’t you think this is the invisible business value?”
“Oh, I see. Let me go in and see if there’s any latest refrigeration technology.”
Everyone finally understood and immediately wanted to attend the exhibition with great interest.
“Don’t waste your energy. This exhibition can’t be enjoyed casually. Only those who have a high social status and have received the invitation can enter. Otherwise, it will be too crowded.”
The person who knew the inside story proudly took out an invitation, ostentatiously shook it, and then strode to the club.
“How pretentious!”
“Right, I thought he is a good guy, but in fact, talking so much was to show that he has an invitation,”
“I’m so angry. F*ck, I don’t believe I can’t get in. I’ll call my friends now and get an invitation. When I get in, I’ll humiliate him hard.”
…
Indignant, the passers-by tried to call those they knew to ask if they could get the invitation for them.
