Rong Ning then added, trying to cover up the truth, "Ahem, I used to have a younger sister at home who was about the same age as Miss Ruxue, so I couldn't help but ask a few more questions."

An Wu: I don't believe you for a second!

"I see! Mr. Rong is so kind to my sister. But Mr. Rong's questions are too detailed; I don't know the answers either."

Rong Ning said awkwardly, "I was just asking casually."

Rulan learned about Rong Ning's reaction from An Wu, which made her even more certain that this person had feelings for Ruxue.

She simply couldn't understand it; he clearly had the intention, so why was he acting like a block of wood?

He himself might not be comfortable, and this made Ru Xue uncomfortable as well.

It's truly incomprehensible.

Two days later, An Wu said to Rong Ning, "Mr. Rong, there is news about the guard who wanted to marry Miss Ru Xue. Although the guard is a good person, he has a very fierce, shrewish and unreasonable mother. Moreover, the guard listens to his mother in everything. I heard that his mother also wanted to marry Miss Ru Xue."

Rong Ning looked worried and frowned, saying, "This won't do. You'll definitely suffer if you marry into a family like that."

When you marry, you're marrying into the same family. If your mother-in-law is difficult to get along with, life will definitely be tough.

An Wu sighed, "Who can argue with that? But these days, how many mothers-in-law aren't formidable? It's really hard to marry into a family you truly desire!"

Upon hearing this, Rong Ning also became worried.

An Wu continued, "The Princess Consort has announced that her maids can get married, and many people are eyeing them. But from what I see, most of them are only interested in the status of being favored by the Princess Consort. With such pragmatism, I wonder how much sincerity they have."

An Wu sighed as he spoke.
