My Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 300

Yiyao’s voice thickened with emotion. Commander Duan frowned. He asked: “Are you really in love with that man?”

Yiyao bit her lips and didn’t say anything. Of course she likes Jingyan, or she wouldn’t be so angry when she saw him walking with another woman.

Commander Duan was very surprised. Because his daughter had never fallen in love with anyone before. He suddenly sat up straight and said seriously: “Of course, most businessmen are very decent and righteous people......”

Yiyao burst into laughter after hearing what her father said. Then, a drop of tear rolled down her face. She said: “I like him. But I don’t want him to be with me when I think of what happened to mom.”

Commander Duan’s face darkened. His wife was killed by a mob in retaliation when he was out on a mission. At that time, Yiyao was still a high school student. Since her mother’s death, Yiyao was determined to go to a military school, because she wants to take revenge on this mob who killed her mother. And a few years later, Yiyao went to a military school and revenged her mother’s death.

Yiyao never blamed her father for what happened. She grew up with a group of soldiers and she knew her father couldn’t always stay at home and protect them.

Commander Duan never gets married again. Sometimes Yiyao suggests him to find another partner, because she doesn’t want her father to be alone, but Commander Duan never agreed. He said he has a batman to take care of him, so he doesn’t need another partner.

It was afternoon. The rays of the sun poured in through the window. Commander Duan walked to a water dispenser and fetched Yiyao a glass of hot water. He gave the water to Yiyao and said: “But still, you need to get married. Why don’t you marry someone you truly love? I don’t want you to be sad.”

Yiyao looked at her father. She forced a smile on her face and her eyes were sparkling. She said: “Dad, I don’t feel sad. The only one who can make me sad is you.”

Commander Duan poked at her forehead and said smilingly: “When did I make you sad?”

“Once you arranged a date for me. Remember? And the man you found for me is so...disappointing.” Yiyao said.

“You are already 28 years old. Don’t you think you should get married?”

Yiyao’s face crumpled. “Here we go again! Dad, I know I’m 28, but what’s the matter? I am still young. Don’t worry. I will get married someday. Maybe with some soldier in the troop.”

“Sounds like the soldiers are willing to get married with you.” Commander Duan said jokingly.

Yiyao tipped her chin proudly and said: “I am the most beautiful woman in the troop. Nobody can resist my charm.”

“Okay. Knock it off.” Commander Duan touched the bruise near her eye and asked: “Does it still hurt?”

Yiyao nodded seriously. “Yes, it hurts badly.”

“That’s why you must stay in hospital. Don’t go out until you are fully recovered! If the scar remains on your face, no one will marry you.” Commander Duan said. He is a very high-ranking official, and at the same time, he is also a father. He felt his heart was aching when he saw his daughter in much pain.

“If no one wants to get married with me, I will live with you. You can make enough money to support my life.” Yiyao smiled at her father.

Commander Duan patted on her head and said: “So, you want to be an old maid. That’s not possible. Your mother will be angry with me.”

“Don’t you want me to be with you all the time?” Yiyao sipped the hot water.

“Okay. That’s enough. Take a rest.” Commander Duan took the glass away and lifted the quilt on the bed.

Yiyao kicked off her shoes and got on bed.

“You must be good. Don’t leave the hospital unless the director tells you it is okay to leave. Is that understood?”

“I know.” Yiyao said tiredly. She suddenly asked: “What about the training?”

Commander Duan covered her under the quilt and said: “Don’t worry about it. Someone has taken over. The troop can still function without you in it.”

“What about these people?”

“They were all caught.” Commander Duan said.

Yiyao’s expression became serious. She said: “These people must have a bigger boss.”

The nurse said: “Is that so? I heard you are a very tough woman. Even these male soldiers are no match for you in a fight.”

“That doesn’t mean I can’t feel pain.” Yiyao said. “Ouch, please be gentle.”

The nurse giggled. “I haven’t touched the wound yet.”

“I love to look at you when you smile. You make me feel nervous when you wear a solemn expression.”

“You are badly injured, but you will make a full recovery if you can listen to me and doctors and stay at the hospital. This morning, my wages are docked because I didn’t keep an eye on you and let you run away. If you do this again, I will be fired.”

Yiyao was surprised when she heard this. She didn’t know she caused so much trouble to other people. She said: “I’m so sorry.”

“That’s okay. As long as you can cooperate with us from now on. I’m going to change your bandage. It’s gonna hurt.”

The bandage on her arm was changed. The nurse then asked her to unbutton her shirt, because there was a gauze bandage around her waist that need changing.

How did she get injured so badly? You may ask. Well, it all started from the day when Yiyao went to the arranged date.

That day, she went to the Chinese restaurant for diner, and a group of people noticed her the moment she walked into the restaurant. When Jingyan professed his love for her, she felt her mind went blank and she couldn’t think of anything else. So on the way back, she didn’t notice a group of people were following her closely.

She was in the hotel. When she made up her mind to go out and look for Jingyan, someone knocked the door. She opened the door, and found it was a servant. He had a plate of fruits in his hands.

“Excuse me, are you Miss Duan?”

“Yes, I am.”

“This is your fruit.”

Yiyao didn’t order any fruit, but she thought it was Jingyan who ordered it for her. So she took the plate gladly. But suddenly, another man appeared from behind the waiter and covered her nose and mouth with a piece of cloth. The cloth has a very strong and pungent smell, and before Yiyao realized what was going on, she lost her consciousness and collapsed to the ground.
