<strong>Chapter 305 Confirmation Signature</strong>


    Special Assistant Shen holds out his hand. He forcefully shakes hands with Xia Ning, “Director Xia, how do you do? My surname is Shen. My first name is Mo. Nice to meet you. You look very impressive.”


    Xia Ning smells the fragrance of chewing gum. She mildly lifts her eyebrows. Seemingly, Special Assistant Shen chews gum before he speaks, “Thank you.”


    They greet each other for a while. Special Assistant Shen sits down. Xia Ning turns to Gu Ruoruo, “Ruoruo, get us some tea, please.”


    Shen Mo nces at the coffee in front of Xia Ning. He says, “Coffee is fine. It helps to refresh.”


    Gu Ruoruo responds and turns around to walk out.


    Shen Mo nces around. He looks at Xia Ning and smiles. He frankly says, “Director Xia, I am a frank man. I may say things directly. If I say anything displeasing, please forgive me.”


    “Never mind. Special Assistant is frank and doesn’t beat around the bush. I like to talk with you in this way. You may talk with me directly about anything.”


    Shen Mo nods, “I am here to confirm some things with you.”


    At the time, Gu Ruoruo has got the coffee done. She puts down the coffee and walks out of the office.


    “Does Director Xia like cappino?”


    “Oh. I like sweet coffee. Cappino has more milk vor. So, I like it better. If Special Assistant Shen doesn’t like it. I can ask Ruoruo to prepare another style for you.”


    “No, no need.” Special Assistant Shen takes a sip of the coffee, “To be honest, I like Cappino, too. Ha, ha. I hope you don’t think I am of womanly taste.”


    “Special Assistant Shen likes joking.”


    They chat for another while. Shen Mo takes out a file from his file bag and puts it in front of Xia Ning, “Ie to C City this time to confirm a document with Director Xia. It is about the sales contract of Yasi Vi, which was signed four years ago.


    Xia Ning feels her heart slightly tightened. She received the money four years ago. Why it is mentioned now?


    “Well.” Xia Ning takes over the contract, “Is there anything wrong in it?”


    Special Assistant Shen shakes his head, “Nothing wrong. I just need to confirm it.”


    Xia Ning mildly frowns. She opens the file and reads it carefully, “Special Assistant Shen, actually, this contract was signed by my husband. I am not clear about the details. Do you need to check with my husband?”


    “No need.” Special Assistant Shen points at somewhere in the contract, “I only need to confirm whether the money B City government paid for Yasi Vi went directly into your ount.”


    In the contract, it shows that the money to buy Yasi Vi is to be remitted directly into the ount number under Xia Ning’s name.


    Xia Ning frowns more seriously, “Special Assistant Shen, I can’t confirm to you now. I may call my husband first to check with him. OK?”


    “Director Xia, wait for a second.” Special Assistant Shen takes out a bank slip, “Director Xia, it is mentioned here that the money went directly into your ount.”


    Xia Ning vaguely feels something wrong.


    At that time, the money did go directly into her ount. Why theye to her for confirmation after four years?


    “Special Assistant Shen, because this contract was signed between my husband and Mayor Yin. If there is anything wrong with it, can youmunicate directly with my husband? I have never seen this contract. So, I can’t confirm anything to you.”


    Special Assistant Shen blinks his eyes, “OK. I wonder when Commander Yi will be free. Is it convenient for me to visit him at home?”


    “I may call him to check.” Xia Ning takes out her phone and dials Yi Yunrui’s number.


    Soon, the call gets through, “Ning, I am d that you call me first. Do you... miss me?”


    “...” Xia Ning feels a little embarrassed, “Hum.”


    “Ha, ha!” Yi Yunruiughs, “You silly, I am just kidding. What’s up?”


    Xia Ning briefly tells Yi Yunrui that Special Assistant Shenes to C City for the contract confirmation. She asks, “Rui, is it convenient for you this evening?”


    Yi Yunrui thinks for a while, “It is OK. You may invite Special Assistant Shen for dinner at our house.”


    Xia Ning blinks her eyes, wondering when Yi Yunrui changes to be so hospitable.


    “OK.” Xia Ning responds. She hangs up and turns to Special Assistant Shen, “Special Assistant Shen, my husband said it is OK to meet you this evening. Will youe to our house for a simple dinner?”


    At half past five, Yi Yunrui sends Zhang Hai to pick up Xia Ning and Special Assistant Shen back to the militarypound. When Xia Ning and Special Assistant Shene into the house, they smell the delicious vor of dinner. It stimtes the appetite at once.


    “Commander Yi and Director Xia have a very happy life. It is really enviable.” Special Assistant Shen can’t help admiring.


    “You are ttering us.” Xia Ning smiles happily. She doesn’t know when Yi Yunrui got home to make the dinner.


    Theye into the living room. There are six dishes on the table. At the time, Yi Yunrui wears an apron andes out from the kitchen, “You two may wait for another while. Dinner will be ready soon.”


    “Commander Yi, nice to meet you.” Special Assistant Shen sees Yi Yunrui. He politely holds out his hand.


    Yi Yunrui shakes hands with him, “Special Assistant Shen, we may skip the official patterns here. You just think that you are at your friend’s home. We may have a happy dinner.”


    “OK. It is a great honor to be considered to be your friend! Thank you.”


    Xia Ning looks at them and smiles. The two men need no introduction and get familiar with each other themselves.


    After a few minutes, Yi Yunrui brings a big pot of soup and a dish of appetizers. Dinner is announced to begin.


    They agree that they won’t talk about the official issues and Special Assistant really doesn’t mention any of them. Instead, he talks with Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning about normal topics. He doesn’t use manyplicated words and makes his speeches brief and active, which amuse Xia Ning greatly. Special Assistant Shen has a good appetite today and has several bowls of rice. They almost finish all the dishes on the table before they stop.


    “It is delicious. It is really delicious!” Special Assistant Shen can’t stop praising when he drinks tea, “I really miss the food vor of my hometown. However, I am always busy and seldom have time to go home. Commander Yi’s cooking, to be honest, tastes like my mother’s cooking!”


    Xia Ning can’t help bursting intoughter.


    Yi Yunrui slightly lifts his lips, “That is good. I think I have to be the father and mother of my wife. I am happy to hear you say so.”


    Special Assistant Shen is surprised to hear his words. Then, heughs, “Commander Yi, you are really a nice man.”


    They chat for a while. Then Special Assistant Shen takes out the file again and puts it in front of Yi Yunrui. Differently from the previous time, Special Assistant Shen takes out a recorder and puts it there, too.


    “Commander Yi, Mrs. Yi, thank you for your delicious dinner. However, I have to say frankly, I still need to carry out my work. I am required by the C City government toe here to confirm the sales contract of Yasi Vi which was signed four years ago. Whatever Commander Yi and Mrs. Yi are going to say will be recorded. Ie here with the task, but no other intentions. I hope you can understand. I also hope you can support me in my work and cooperate with me.


    Xia Ning turns to Yi Yunrui. Yi Yunrui nods, “I understand.”


    “Then, we may begin.” Shen Mo presses the record button, “Four years ago, did Commander Yi Yunrui sign a sales contract for Yasi Vi with B City government?”


    “Special Assistant Shen, I have to correct something. This contract was signed between Yin Tianyang and me. Yin Tianyang signed as the representative of the government, however, we discussed that and agreed in advance.”


    Special Assistant hesitates for a while. He continues, “The contract says that the area of Yasi Vi is 2638.57 square meters. Is that the exact area of it?”


    “Yes.” Yi Yunrui responds frankly.


    “Then, based on the contract, the sales area included Yasi Vi and its attaching area. As regards the attaching area, because it was temporarilycking of a legal contract, so the amount was calcted based on the area of Yasi V. Is that right?”


    “Yes.”


    Shen Mo takes notes and nods. He continues, “Then, did Commander Yi ask Yin Tianyang to directly remit the payment for Yasi Vi to Ms. Xia Ning’s ount?”


    “Hum. It was done based on the contract. The payment was directly remitted into my wife’s ount.”


    Then, Shen Mo asks some other questions. Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning answer one by one. Shen Mo collects the files and his recorder.


    “Thank you for your cooperation.”


    “You are wee.”


    Shen Mo takes up the teacup for a sip of tea. Xia Ning remembers something. She asks, “Special Assistant Shen, is thend of Yasi Vi going to be developed?”


    “It is going to be used. The government is currently recruiting developers and bidders. So, at this critical moment, we need to handle some issues.”


    If thatnd is going to be used, there is nothing strange for Special Assistant Shen toe and ask about the contract.


    However, ...


    Yi Yunrui sold thatnd four years ago. Why wasn’t it used until now?


    With B City’s governmental power, it shouldn’t be a hard thing to get finance for these several thousand square meters ofnd.


    Shen Mo is aware of Xia Ning’s confusion. He says, “Mrs. Yi, I was transferred to B City three years ago. When Commander Yi and Mayor Yin signed the contract, I was somewhere else. I am not clear about many things. I also understand that Mrs. Yi is worried if there is anything wrong. However, as long as it is a just and fair trade, you have got your stand. You don’t need to worry about anything.”


    Xia Ning smiles. She surely understands the logic. However, the business circle isplicated. There are all kinds of tricks in business contracts. Sometimes, trouble is hard to avoid.


    When Yi Yunrui answered the questions, she vaguely had an ominous feeling that something was going to happen.


    They talk for a while and Shen Mo leaves. Yi Yunrui holds his wife and says considerately, “Ning, your husband has got a contract waiting for you to sign for confirmation.”


    Xia Ning sees his behavior and blushes, “Why do I feel that I may be put in disadvantage...wow!”


    Xia Ning has not finished her words while she is carried up by Yi Yunrui. She feels things sh in front of her and cries out.


    “Don’t worry. You will not lose anything. Because I am the person who gives. Come on. Let’s go into the bedroom to sign it.”
