Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband

Chapter 65 A Little Trick, A Small Plan

The dumplings full of fillings are poured into the pot and the flavor goes around the whole house, making everyone’s mouth water.

Soon, the dumplings are done. Mei Ruo gives a big bowl of soup to Xia Ning and Yi Yunrui respectively and puts several dishes of dumplings on the table.

Mei Ruo gets a dozen kinds of sauces prepared on the table and smiles, “In fact, I haven’t made dumplings for a long time. I am not sure if they taste good. I hope you two can make do with them.”

“Commissar Mei is too kind.” Even the look of the feast alone can earn ninety-nine points out of one hundred.

“Come on. Let’s have a taste.” Mei Ruo says and picks a dumpling for Xia Ning.

“Thank you.” Xia Ning takes a bite. It is tasty and smells wonderful.

Mei Ruo smiles and eats herself. Seeing Yi Yunrui drink the soup and have not tried the dumplings, she picks one for him, “Commander, this is your favorite mushroom pork dumpling. Have a taste.”

Yi Yunrui glances at the dumpling, “Hum. I haven’t had any for a long time.”

Mei Ruo is glad and picks several more for him, “Have more if you like. They are freshly made.”

Yi Yunrui nods and takes up the chopsticks. His phone rings the moment when he picks up the dumpling.

He takes out his phone and looks at it. Then, he puts down the chopsticks and says, “Excuse me.” He goes away to answer the phone.

Mei Ruo’s eyes darken.

“Commissar makes really delicious dumplings.” Xia Ning speaks, “Thanks to Commissar Mei, or, I really don’t know that he likes dumplings.”

It seems that she really doesn’t know her husband well.

Remembering the past, Mei Ruo’s eyes become soft. She unconsciously says, “Rui liked dumplings and used to come here together with others. They all had fun and were happy. But now they are all transferred to other departments. We don’t have many old friends. In fact, Rui doesn’t make intimate friends with others. He is always lonely.”

Hearing Mei Ruo call Rui instead of Commander, Xia Ning feels uncomfortable. She eats the dumplings quietly and listens to Mei Ruo.

“Anyway, it is all right. Though Rui is unsociable, he still can talk with me, his commissar…” Mei Ruo smiles softly, “I still remember that one time when we were both drunk, Rui did a very funny thing.”

Mei Ruo stops here. Xia Ning is curious, “What's that?”

Mei Ruo’s face freezes slightly. She shakes her head, “No. I did not say anything.”

Xia Ning frowns. Instinctively, she feels that there is something unusual concerning the “funny thing” mentioned by Mei Ruo.

“Ning.” Yi Yunrui comes to her and he looks serious, “Let’s go to see your friend Baoer.”

Xia Ning loses color, “What happened to Baoer?”

Yi Yunrui shakes his head, “Nothing serious. Let’s go and see.”

“OK.” Xia Ning responds and stands up. Seeing the full table of dumplings, she gets embarrassed, “But…”
