Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband

Chapter 46: Thinking about It

Xia Ning is stunned for several seconds until Gu Luan gives her his business card.

“Hi, Director Gu.” Xia Ning is excited. God, it is the very Director of World Era TV Station, Gu Luan!

He became the Director of World Era TV Station at a young age of 28. He is quite capable in work. Being a big shot among all famous TV stations, he is also one of the people Xia Ning worships most.

“Hi, may I sit here?” Gu Luan smiles. He looks quite a gentleman.

“Of course.”

Gu Luan sits down. They greet each other again. At this time the waiter comes, and Gu Luan orders a cup of cappuccino.

Gu Luan takes a sip and puts on a secret smile, “Miss Xia likes cappuccino. Yes?”

Xia Ning is stunned, wondering what Gu Luan said means?

“Don’t worry, Miss Xia. I am not a human trafficker nor a private detective.” Gu Luan is making fun and glances at the paper aside, “Is the exclusive interview report about Li Dezheng written by Miss Xia?”

Xia Ning nods, but she doesn’t understand what Gu Luan means.

“Director Gu, how do you get to know me?”

Gu Luan takes another sip. He puts down the cup and turns to Xia Ning, “Then I will tell you the truth. To be honest, I have been taking notice of Miss Xia for some time.”

“Er? Why?” Gu Luan takes notice of her? It makes Xia Ning feel quite flattered.

“Ever since I read Miss Xia’s first exclusive interview report, which was about Mr. Dai, I was interested in you. Then I looked up some of your information. I found that you were only a junior office clerk though you had been in TIME for over three years. How could you suddenly finish the exclusive interview with General Dai Zhen? Was there any secret? From that time on, I kept taking notice of you. In about one-month time, you finished one exclusive interview after another, especially that one with Mr. Li Dezheng, which makes me really admire Miss Xia’s ability.

Xia Ning is a little shy, “Director Gu, you are flattering me. It is just that I am lucky...”

“Good luck also needs to get the opportunity. It seems that Miss Xia worked very hard to get all these done. Did you?”

“Hum.” Xia Ning smiles slightly, “That is past. Well...” Xia Ning pauses to take a sip of her coffee.

Smelling there is some implication in Xia Ning’s words, Gu Luan asks, “Are Miss Xia working at TIME? Why do you have time for coffee at this time?”

Xia Ning is a little embarrassed, “I...I am not working there any longer.”

Gu Luan’s eyes flash “Time is a famous TV station in B City. Will Miss Xia tell me why you don’t work there any longer?”

Xia Ning’s heart aches. She looks at Gu Luan’s sharp eyes. After a while, she says, “As a matter to fact, I am fired by the Director.” Saying this, Xia Ning is so embarrassed that she lowers her head to have another sip of coffee.

“So...” As if he gets to understand something, Gu Luan says “it seems that the rumor out there is true.”

Xia Ning is confused, “What is the rumor?”

Gu Luan smiles slightly. He says, “Actually I am not here to tell the ill of other people. What the rumor is will be known later to Miss Xia. Since you are not working in TIME now, I wonder if you are interested in joining us in the World Era TV Station?”

Xia Ning’s eyes brighten. Luck hits her on the face. She is too excited to make any response.

Seeing Xia Ning is stunned, Gu Luan puts on a bigger smile, “Maybe it is too sudden. Miss Xia can take some days to consider it. You may call my phone after you make the decision. The World Era TV Station badly needs people like Miss Xia.”

Xia Ning shakes her head and is going to accept the invitation. But she thinks it again and would like to figure out some things before that.

“Direct Gu, World Era TV Station plays a dominant role in the brand press industry, with great and many talents. I was only a junior office clerk in TIME. Why do you say that your TV station needs me?”

Gu Luan is surprised to hear this. He laughs gladly, “Miss Xia is too modest. What makes a publication approved by readers is that its information is authoritative and can’t be copied or imitated. People working in our TV station are all enthusiastic about it and they always bring the urge of fighting for it at their work. The success of an enterprise doesn’t depend on all kinds of relations or talents of false pride, but on this kind of vitality and urge, which are the very things I see on Miss Xia. Even when you were a junior clerk in TIME, you did your job with utmost carefulness. So, Miss Xia, you don’t need to doubt about your capability. Be confident.”

Xia Ning is moved, as if something explodes from the bottom of her heart and provides her with a great expectation for the future.

“Actually, I come to B City this time on purpose to meet Miss Xia.” Gu Luan pauses and continues mysteriously, “There is another thing that you may not remember. We met before.”

Met before? Xia Ning is more confused.

“You saved me.” Gu Luan says frankly.

Saved him?!

Gu Luan smiles. He remembers what Yi Yun’ai said, “Brother Gu, don’t you like my sister-in-law? OK. My sister-in-law will definitely quit. It is time for you to show your ability!”

“You push me away in that earthquake.”

It clicks.

There was an earthquake several years ago. She went for relief work there and encountered aftershocks. She pushes a man away just before he was hit by the falling beam.

Seemingly that man is Gu Luan.

When they are talking, someone secretly approaches. Gu Luan puts down his coffee, “Miss Xia, it seems that your friend is here.”

Xia Ning is surprised. She turns her head to look and her face is hit by embarrassment!

She sees that Li Bao’er is hiding in a corner and peeking at them.

Xia Ning strokes her forehead and is a little shy, “Sorry. That’s my good friend. I asked her to meet here.”

“Oh...” Gu Luan nods and stands up, “Well, I am leaving now. By the way, Miss Xia, I am in charge of the Southeast Section of World Era TV Station. If Miss Xia agrees, the working place is in C City. I will wait for your response soon.”

They greet for a while and Gu Luan turns to leave.

“Xia Ning, what are you doing?” Seeing the man has left, Li Bao’er walks to Xia Ning quickly and points at her, “How can you? The commander is so kind to you. How dare you do this to him?”

Xia Ning glances at her and pulls her to sit down, “Miss Li, mind what you say! Do you know who he is?”

Li Bao’er curls her lips, “I don’t care who he is. It is not right that you do this behind your commander husband.”

“Shut up! What are you talking about?” Xia Ning is a little angry, “I came here alone. And he is the director of World Era TV Station. He came here on purpose to invite me to work there.”

“What?” Li Bao’er is shocked, and she raises her voice by eight degrees.

Li Bao’er’s reaction attracts all the eyes of the people in the coffee hall.

At this moment, Xia Ning is so embarrassed that she thinks she would kill Li Bao’er.

“Miss Li, would you please speak quietly. Control your voice. Everybody is looking at us!”

Li Bao’er blinks her eyes and looks around. Realizing that she has made a scene, she smiles embarrassedly, “I was shocked. What did you say? The director of World Era TV Station invites you to work there?”

“Hum.” Xia Ning Nods.

Li Bao’er thinks for a while and suddenly slaps on Xia Ning, “Well, Babe, you did it! You don’t need to suffer the anger in TIME. It is an opportunity not to be asked. Have you accepted it?”

Being almost hurt by the slapping, Xia Ning stares at her, “I am afraid that I have been killed by your slapping before I accept the invitation. Don’t you come just now? So, I have not accepted it.”

Li Bao’er’s lips twitch. She lowers her head, “Sorry. It is my fault. You may beat me.”

Xia Ning smiles, “Here comes the punishment. Close your eyes first.”

Li Bao’er stares. Is she really going punish her?

Curling her lips, Li Bao’er closes her eyes and murmurs, “Don’t beat too hard. Seemingly I am strong, but I am not...”

“OK now. Open your eyes.”

Not waiting for Li Bao’er to finish, Xia Ning says.

“Don’t you punish me? I don’t feel hurt.” Li Bao’er continues to say and opens her eyes. When she sees the heart shape jewelry casket, she is stunned.

“Open to check if you like it.”

“This is the casket of W Jewelry Store!” Li Bao’er takes it up and is excited. But she is uncertain and asks, “Babe, I like Jewelry, you cannot give me an empty casket!”

Xia Ning smiles without saying a word. She takes a sip of coffee.

Li Bao’er opens the casket carefully and at once is shocked by the flashing jewelry inside.

After a few second, Li Bao’er hugs Xia Ning all of a sudden, “Babe, I really have a good friend. This is the “Eternal heart” I am dreaming of...”

Realizing that all the people in the coffee hall are looking at them as if they are monsters, Xia Ning frowns. If she knew Li Bao’er would react so dramatically, she would find an empty place and throw the casket to her and run.

Finally, Li Bao’er calms down. After she has finished exciting, Xia Ning feels released.

“I am asking. Babe, will you accept Gu Luan’s invitation?”

Xia Ning curls her lips, “Director Gu condescends to invite me. If it were in the past, I might not accept it. But now, since TIME doesn’t want to have me, while the headquarters of World Era TV Station is in C City. This is an opportunity. I would like to have a try.”

“Babe, I really envy you. If only I had such a chance.” Li Bao’er says enviously.

Xia Ning smiles, “You will. After I get on the right track in C City, you can come to join me.”

Li Bao’er’s eyes brighten, “Really? Wow, I love you so much!”

Seeing that Li Bao’er is going to perform the bear hug, Xia Ning warns her, “Calm down. It is a public place. Mind your behavior...”

“Hum!” Li Bao’er glances at her, “I know. Anyway, Babe, look at you. I am really happy for you. You arrived where you are now at last. Well, I will show you something. It is a surprise!”

Saying this, Li Bao’er grasps her big bag and looking for something inside.

Xia Ning frowns, “What is it?”
