Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband

The girl is called Zhenzhen. She is seven, a very nice kid. Her mother is seriously ill. It is not known where her father has gone. She looks after her mother by her own. She likes to eat snacks, especially sweet ones, just like Xia Ning. So, Xia Ning prepares many sweet foods for Zhenzhen every day.

She asked Zhenzhen where her father was. Zhenzhen only responded with a smile. Xia Ning felt sad to see her smile.

She is just a little girl. She has no other families or relatives. If what happens to her mother, she is alone…

At the time, maybe the mother has taken her medicine and fallen asleep. Zhenzhen walks to the balcony and waves at Xia Ning. Xia Ning smiles and waves back.

Zhenzhen dares not leave her home at all in the evening. She has to take care of her mother.

Sometimes, things can be really unfair. A cute and kind girl, at the age when her peers are happy and spoilt by adults, encounters such difficulty.

Xia Ning glances at the clock on the wall. It is seven. She takes the food and the book back into the house and plans to go out.

She has left Yi Yunrui for a week. It is a tough week for her.

Every time, when she is alone, she will miss Yi Yunrui so much that she feels she is going to be drowned by the feeling. She sits there alone. She can’t stop tearing until she is exhausted and falls asleep.

This is a quiet and leisured place. However, she is alone and can’t stop thinking that it will be so great if Yi Yunrui is with her.

When they are with each other, it is good.

But she is alone, the leisure and the beautiful scenery only make her sadder.

Sometimes she will laugh at herself. She was so decisive when she left, while she is so weak now.

She feels a little regretful. Why didn’t she confess to Yi Yunrui? No matter what the end is, it is better than leaving herself to bear it alone.

She wonders how Yi Yunrui is after she left him.

Maybe…during this week, he has got another woman with him.

Ah, if so, she will sincerely wish Yi Yunrui happiness.

It is just like how she “sent away” Ou Yixuan.

Anyway, she is very afraid of being alone. Staying alone means that she will feel painful. So, at this time of every evening, she will go to the bar near her villa to listen to the music and drink a little wine.

It is really surprising that there is a small bar here. It is quite an isolated place.

The small bar is of good taste, with high style and nice wines.

It is not inferior to the big pubs in big cities.

Nevertheless, this small bar is more atmospheric.

Xia Ning chooses a seat to sit down. A waiter comes to her. It is a young man. He asks Xia Ning, “Miss, do you want to have a cup of Baileys as usual?”

Xia Ning smiles and nods, “A cup of Baileys first.”

“OK. One moment.”

Soon, a cup of Baileys is served for Xia Ning. The waiter also sends her a dish of peanuts, a plate of pistachios and a plate of shredded squid. He smiles, “On the boss.”

“Thank you.” Xia Ning responds.

It is said that the boss of this pub is very rich. He doesn’t care whether it earns or loses money. It is just for fun.

She has never met the real boss. All waiters haven’t met the real boss. They only know that the boss will come to the pub to have fun with the customers from time to time.

Xia Ning takes up the wine for a sip. The sweet milk fragrance goes directly into her throat. People who don’t know it will regard it to be coconut milk by mistake.

They start the nice jazz. More and more people come. They talk in a low voice.

Xia Ning looks at the people in the pub. She supports her head with her hand, imagining what they are talking about and what happens behind them…

In this way, she gets rid of her loneliness. As long as she goes to crowded people, she will forget Yi Yunrui temporarily.

She browses every customer and stares at a corner in the pub.

There is often a man sitting there. He is also alone, drinking wine while listening to the music and then he gets lost in meditation.

Oh, there must also be some stories about this man.

Xia Ning feels her heart aching. She takes up the wine for a sip. Unconsciously, her eyes get red.

“Miss.”

A sweet male voice is heard. Xia Ning is shocked. She lifts her head and sees the considerate bright eyes.

It is the man who always sits in the corner!

The man smiles. He shakes the wine in his hand, “Excuse me, can I sit down?”

Xia Ning pauses for a while and nods, “Yes, go ahead.”

The man sits down. He puts down the whisky in his hand. He smiles to look at Xia Ning, “Are you alone tonight?”

Xia Ning curls her lips, “Yes. You are alone, too?”

The man wears a casual T-shirt. He is about 180cm in height. He looks handsome, especially his eyes, which are black and as bright as the stars in the sky.

The man puts on a bigger smile, “Yes, I am alone, too. Let me introduce myself. My surname is Lei. My given name is Buyang.”

Lei Buyang?!

Hearing this, Xia Ning is so shocked that she widens her eyes!

He is Lei Buyang!

Aware of Xia Ning’s surprise, Lei Buyang says, “You…are called Xia Ning. Right? I met you before at my reception.”

“!” Xia Ning pauses, “In the reception, isn’t Mr. Lei absent.”

God! He is Lei Buyang himself!

To other people, Lei Buyang is a mysterious man, a hidden king. She has never expected that she will meet and know him under such circumstances. They sit face to face here. She feels that Lei Buyang is an easy-going man.

Oh, if he doesn’t take the initiative, it is really hard to identify him.

“I was there, but I didn’t want to show up.” Lei Buyang is helpless, “I didn’t want to give the speech. I also didn’t want to communicate with some people. It is tiring.”

Xia Ning blinks her eyes. Unconsciously, she feels it funny.

Unexpectedly, the famous President Lei hates social communication so badly. It is really unbelievable that with this personality, he successfully makes himself so famous.

Lei Buyang finds no responses from Xia Ning. He shrugs his shoulders, “You may not believe it, but I just don’t like it. I am just afraid of being poor. I was tired of being poor when I was a kid. So, I tried everything to earn money. Who knows, I made more and more money, but I got more and more bored. And I felt it a headache.” Lei Buyang strokes his head and takes up the wine. He raises it towards Xia Ning, “Miss Xia, cheers!”

Xia Ning smiles. She takes up her cup and hits it with his. She takes a sip, “To be honest, I really can’t imagine you will say something like this.”

“Hahaha…” Lei Buyang laughs, “Not only you, I also can’t imagine someone like me will be successful.”

Xia Ning smiles, but she doesn’t respond. Sometimes, you take something easy, it will become better and better, while you try something hard, it may turn out to be in vain.

Lei Buyang lifts his head to drink up the whisky. He waves his hand at the waiter, “Give me another cup. Well. Didn’t K make a new drink? Send a cup of it to this lady.”

“Yes, Mr. Lei.”

Xia Ning looks at Lei Buyang. The man looks lazy. But he is frank. He is an interesting man.

Soon, the waiter serves the drink, followed by some small dishes and a fruit plate. Lei Buyang is very happy and gives the waiter quite some tips.

The waiter sends them the drink. It is transparently purple. It shines inside like the stars in the sky. There is steam on top of it. It looks so lovely that Xia Ning doesn’t bear to drink it.

Lei Buyang puts a piece of potato cake into his mouth. He chews it and nods, “K always makes the tasty potato cake. Miss Xia, you can have a try.”

At the time, Xia Ning is amused by Lei Buyang’ s childishness and she can’t help laughing.

Lei Buyang pauses for a while. He looks confusedly at Xia Ning.

Xia Ning laughs and waves her hand, “Sorry. I am sorry. I just feel Mr. Lei very cute.”

“Oh. Well.” Lei Buyang takes up another piece of potato cake and has a big bite of it, “Many people said so. Hehe, my future wife likes me for this and we get together.”

“Future wife?” Xia Ning looks around, “Mr. Lei, why don’t you bring your fiancée with you here?”

“Well. She is a Miss Popularity. I can’t control her.” Saying this, Lei Buyang is a little frustrated, Ah…well. I think I am lucky. I have got such a good girl with me. What else can I ask for? Nothing, as long as she stays honestly with me all my life, I will obey her with anything.”

Xia Ning softens her eyes, “She will. Mr. Lei, she will surely cherish you for you are such a good man.”

Lei Buyang is happy. He bites the potato cake and can’t stop laughing. Then, he seems to remember something, “Oh. We are going to marry the day after tomorrow in St. Mary’s Cathedral. Miss Xia, please come. Will you?”

Xia Ning brightens her eyes, “Congratulations! Congratulations! I wish you a happy marriage and becoming a father soon.”

“Hahaha. Thank you! I really hope that we can have children soon, one kid a year to form a football team. Hahaha!”

“…” Xia Ning is shocked. Seemingly, he wants to learn from the famous movie director Mr. Zhang, who has many children. Xia Ning asks, “Mr. Lei, why do you want to hold your wedding in this place? It is a little isolated. Doesn’t your bride have any disagreements?”

“I talked with her about that. I planned to give her a century wedding. But she didn’t want to bother with that. So, we decided that we would hold the wedding here. It is fine as long as she is happy.”

Xia Ning gently smiles, “The bride is a kind woman. Mr. Lei is lucky to have her.”

“Thank you.. So, I love her very much.” Lei Buyang says and he can’t help smiling.

Seeing the smile on Lei Buyang’s face, Xia Ning feels her heart aching. She quickly takes up the purple drink and takes a sip.

The fruit flavor spreads in her mouth at once. The drink is cold with mild flavor of wine. However, it is perfect. A mouthful of it is enough for the lips of the drinker to remember the enjoyment.

Lei Buyang sticks out his finger, “This drink as just created by K yesterday. The temporary name for it is Happiness. Miss Xia, how do you like this name?”
