Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband

Chapter 240 How to Deal with It?

“I heard that you wanted to transfer Assistant Fang to be your assistant. Didn’t you?” Gu Luan asks.

Xia Ning nods, “Yes. To be honest, I may have touched someone’s benefit chain.”

Gu Luan thinks for a while, “Ning, feel free to do what you feel like to do. Don’t worry about me.”

Xia Ning smiles, “Thank you, Director Gu.”

Gu Luan sips the coffee and says slowly, “Why didn’t I find Cappuccino so delicious in the past?”

Xia Ning carries Fang Zheng’s resignation letter in her hand. She didn’t hear what Gu Luan said clearly, “Director Gu, I want to ask for a leave to take care of something.”

Gu Luan blinks his eyes, “OK.”

In the afternoon, Yi Yunrui called Xia Ning. They decide to pay Mr. Dai a visit.

The car goes slowly on the road among mountains. Xia Ning glances at Yi Yunrui, who is closing his eyes for a rest. She asks, “Didn’t you say that you have something to deal with in the military region and it would take some time? Why are you free now?”

“It is settled and in progress. We may handle Zhongheng’s issue first.”

The car stops in front of Mr. Dai’s house. Dai Zhongheng has been waiting for them in front of the gate. Zhenzhen is standing by him.

Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning get off the car. Seeing Xia Ning, Zhenzhen cries happily, “Sister Xia!” She runs rapidly to hug Xia Ning.

Xia Ning feels her heart softened. She holds Zhenzhen. She crouches down and asks, “Zhenzhen, when did you come to C City?”

“I arrived here the day before yesterday. Zhenzhen misses Sister Xia very much!”

Xia Ning smiles to kiss her cheek, “Sister Xia misses you, too. Zhenzhen, do you like C City?”

Zhenzhen cocks her head and thinks for a while, “Yes, I do. Sister Xia and daddy are here!”

Xia Ning turns to Dai Zhongheng. Dai Zhongheng says, “Mrs. Yi, not long after you left, Zhenzhen’s mother passed away. I stayed there to take care of the funeral and then came back to C City with Zhenzhen.”

Yi Yunrui looks at Zhenzhen, who is bright and lovely. Something in his heart trembles. Some ideas pop up continuously.

“Zhongheng, as to Zhenzhen, what did Mr. Dai say?”

Dai Zhongheng slightly frowns, “My father didn’t talk with me these two days. I am not sure. He didn’t say much about Zhenzhen.”

“Mr. Dai doesn’t say anything. That means he accepts her silently. Are you going to leave Zhenzhen here forever?”

Dai Zhongheng gives a sigh, “I don’t know for now. I may wait to see.”

They are talking when the butler comes to them. He sees Xia Ning and Yi Yunrui. He bows politely, “Commander Yi, Mrs. Yi, Mr. Dai is waiting for you.”

They come to the living room. There are all kinds of sweet desserts and candies there. Mr. Dai is practicing calligraphy. They don’t dare disturb him. When Dai Zhen puts down the writing brush, they see the powerful Chinese character “Heart” written on the Xuan paper.

“Yunrui, Ning, you are here.” Seeing Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning, Mr. Dai puts on a rare smile, “Come here. Have a seat. Wang, make some tea.”

They sit down. Zhenzhen sits beside Xia Ning. She looks at Mr. Dai, as if from a distance.

Mr. Dai looks at Xia Ning quietly for quite a while, “Ning, all the desserts are freshly made. You may have a taste.”

“Thank you.” Xia Ning responds. She takes two pieces of sweet desserts and put one of them on Zhenzhen’s hand.

Mr. Dai looks at Xia Ning and Zhenzhen gently. He says, “About Zhenzhen, I believe you have learned something.”

Xia Ning nods. She turns to Yi Yunrui. Yi Yunrui responds, “Mr. Dai, we both know. Ning and I come today to ask for your opinion.”

At the time, Butler Wang serves the tea. Mr. Dai takes up the teacup and sips, “I respect Zhongheng’s decision.”

Not expecting that his father will say so, Dai Zhongheng blinks his eyes. Then, he lowers his head and says politely, “Father, thank you.”

Mr. Dai waves his hand. He says word by word, “I don’t want to say other things, but one.” Mr. Dai puts down the teacup and looks at him sharply.

“Father, please say it. I will keep it in mind.”

Mr. Dai turns to look at Zhenzhen. It looks complicated in the deep of his eyes. After quite a while, he gives a sigh, “I hope you can take the responsibility.”

Dai Zhongheng freezes his eyes and understands what his father means at once. He forcefully nods, “Father, I understand.”

Xia Ning and Yi Yunrui hear the conversation between the father and the son. They feel relaxed. They thought that a serious person like Mr. Dai will obviously make objections. After all, Zhenzhen is not Dai Zhongheng’s biological daughter. They are surprised about his agreeing.

“Heng, what are you going to tell Baoer about Zhenzhen?” Mr. Dai asks.

Dai Zhongheng curls his lips. He can’t reply at once.

Xia Ning feels worried about him. She wants to reply for him, but the atmosphere feels so serious. She dares not speak.

“Have you thought of the difficulties for Baoer before you make the decision?”

Dai Zhongheng feels his heart aching. He clenches his fists. After quite a while, “Father, I will bear this burden by myself...”

Bang!

Not waiting for Dai Zhongheng to finish his words, Mr. Dai heavily puts down the teacup. The loud sound scares Zhenzhen, who holds Xia Ning at once.

“Nonsense! You are making nonsense!” Mr. Dai’s face turns gray, “You have grown up, but yet, you still don’t know how to deal with things. You have to tell me clearly what’s happening.”

Aware of the intense condition, Xia Ning winks at Butler Wang secretly. Butler Wang understands. He walks to Zhenzhen and says, “Zhenzhen, Mr. Dai and Master Zhongheng are dealing with something. Do you like to play outside with me?”

Zhenzhen curls her lips. She looks at Xia Ning unwillingly. However, she doesn’t speak anything and goes with Butler Wang quietly.

Xia Ning is worried to see the confrontation of the father and the son. She wants to speak to help. But she feels her hand held tightly by Yi Yunrui, who shakes his head and hints her at not speaking.

It seems that no matter what they are going to do, Baoer will feel wronged.

After a while, Dai Zhongheng stands up. He lifts his head to say, “Father, Zhenzhen is here already. I am not going to send her away. As to Baoer...” Dai Zhongheng takes a deep breath and says seriously, “I love Baoer. So, I won’t give her up, either. Father, believe me. I will find a way to get everything settled. I will make sure that Baoer is willing to accept Zhenzhen. I will try my best to be a good father to raise Zhenzhen! Father, you don’t need to worry!”

Mr. Dai stares at his son’s decisive eyes. He frowns. After quite a while, he softens his eyes, “Good. You have to keep your words!”

Xia Ning is frightened badly by the confrontation. It is lucky that it ends up in peace. Xia Ning gives a sigh of great relief.

“Ning.” Mr. Dai turns to Xia Ning. He looks differently on his face, “It is said that the Yin’s daughters did something to you recently. Are you OK dealing with them?”
