Chapter 305 Confirmation Signature
Special Assistant Shen holds out his hand. He forcefully shakes hands with Xia Ning, “Director Xia, how do you do? My surna is Shen. My first na is Mo. Nice to et you. You look very impressive.”
Xia Ning slls 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 so tea, please.”
Shen Mo glances 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 glances 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 .”
“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 directly about anything.”
Shen Mo nods, “I am here to confirm so things with you.”
At the ti, Gu Ruoruo has got the coffee done. She puts down the coffee and walks out of the office.
“Does Director Xia like cappuccino?”
“Oh. I like sweet coffee. Cappuccino has more milk flavor. 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 Cappuccino, 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, “I co to C City this ti to confirm a docunt with Director Xia. It is about the sales contract of Yasi Villa, which was signed four years ago.
Xia Ning feels her heart slightly tightened. She received the money four years ago. Why it is ntioned 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 sowhere in the contract, “I only need to confirm whether the money B City governnt paid for Yasi Villa went directly into your account.”
In the contract, it shows that the money to buy Yasi Villa is to be remitted directly into the account number under Xia Ning’s na.
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 ntioned here that the money went directly into your account.”
Xia Ning vaguely feels sothing wrong.
At that ti, the money did go directly into her account. Why they co 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 you communicate 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 to visit him at ho?”
“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 glad that you call first. Do you... miss ?”
“...” Xia Ning feels a little embarrassed, “Hum.”
“Ha, ha!” Yi Yunrui laughs, “You silly, I am just kidding. What’s up?”
Xia Ning briefly tells Yi Yunrui that Special Assistant Shen cos 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 et you this evening. Will you co 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 military compound. When Xia Ning and Special Assistant Shen co into the house, they sll the delicious flavor of dinner. It stimulates 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 flattering us.” Xia Ning smiles happily. She doesn’t know when Yi Yunrui got ho to make the dinner.
They co into the living room. There are six dishes on the table. At the ti, Yi Yunrui wears an apron and cos out from the kitchen, “You two may wait for another while. Dinner will be ready soon.”
“Commander Yi, nice to et 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 ho. 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 n 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 ntion any of them. Instead, he talks with Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning about normal topics. He doesn’t use many complicated 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 flavor of my hotown. However, I am always busy and seldom have ti to go ho. Commander Yi’s cooking, to be honest, tastes like my mother’s cooking!”
Xia Ning can’t help bursting into laughter.
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, he laughs, “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 ti, 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 governnt to co here to confirm the sales contract of Yasi Villa which was signed four years ago. Whatever Commander Yi and Mrs. Yi are going to say will be recorded. I co here with the task, but no other intentions. I hope you can understand. I also hope you can support in my work and cooperate with .
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 Villa with B City governnt?”
“Special Assistant Shen, I have to correct sothing. This contract was signed between Yin Tianyang and . Yin Tianyang signed as the representative of the governnt, however, we discussed that and agreed in advance.”
Special Assistant hesitates for a while. He continues, “The contract says that the area of Yasi Villa is 2638.57 square ters. Is that the exact area of it?”
“Yes.” Yi Yunrui responds frankly.
“Then, based on the contract, the sales area included Yasi Villa and its attaching area. As regards the attaching area, because it was temporarily lacking of a legal contract, so the amount was calculated based on the area of Yasi Vila. Is that right?”
“Yes.”
Shen Mo takes notes and nods. He continues, “Then, did Commander Yi ask Yin Tianyang to directly remit the paynt for Yasi Villa to Ms. Xia Ning’s account?”
“Hum. It was done based on the contract. The paynt was directly remitted into my wife’s account.”
Then, Shen Mo asks so 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 welco.”
Shen Mo takes up the teacup for a sip of tea. Xia Ning rembers sothing. She asks, “Special Assistant Shen, is the land of Yasi Villa going to be developed?”
“It is going to be used. The governnt is currently recruiting developers and bidders. So, at this critical mont, we need to handle so issues.”
If that land is going to be used, there is nothing strange for Special Assistant Shen to co and ask about the contract.
However, ...
Yi Yunrui sold that land four years ago. Why wasn’t it used until now?
With B City’s governntal power, it shouldn’t be a hard thing to get finance for these several thousand square ters of land.
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 sowhere 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 is complicated. There are all kinds of tricks in business contracts. Sotis, trouble is hard to avoid.
When Yi Yunrui answered the questions, she vaguely had an ominous feeling that sothing 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 flash in front of her and cries out.
“Don’t worry. You will not lose anything. Because I am the person who gives. Co on. Let’s go into the bedroom to sign it.”
