Chapter 165 Following in the Footsteps

Ruan Nuan found it increasingly difficult to make an appointment with Jin Lin recently.

Not only when he went out, but even when he made a phone call, Nie Xiao would occasionally pick up the phone.

When she asked about Jin Lin, Nie Xiao said shamelessly, "Lin Lin is taking a shower now."

"No, you're progressing fast enough now."

"Yes, we are dating, and we are both very happy——"

"Ah, you little bastard, why did you touch my phone?"

Nie Xiao's voice suddenly disappeared. Ruan Nuan realized something and suddenly burst into laughter.

Nie Xiao was severely scolded by Jin Lin.

"I'm sorry, Linlin. Since you're an acquaintance, I'll answer the call for you..."

"Pick up your ghost..."

The next second, Ruan Nuan heard the sound of Nie Xiao being beaten. Not long after, Jin Lin called out from the other side, "Nuan Nuan, I may not be able to go out with you recently."

"Why?"

Ruan Nuan didn't mind that Jin Lin couldn't go out with her, she was just curious about the reason.

"Nie Xiaofei asked me to go with him to visit his grandparents. We've made an appointment."

"Oh, I have to say, after not seeing you for a few days, Linlin, you have become more humane than before."

Jin Lin laughed dryly twice, "Anyway, I haven't thought about my old love for a long time."

Ruan Nuan felt that this was a good thing for Jin Lin.

The relationship between Shang Sheng and Bai Xulan is unclear, so it would be wise for Jin Lin to leave.

"How are you and Bo Junye doing now?"

"Not bad." She accepted Bo Junye's betrothal gift and is currently preparing for the engagement. Jin Lin said that she was disloyal and kept such a big thing from her.

Ruan Nuan smiled sheepishly and explained, "I haven't thought it through yet. I feel like everything happened too suddenly."

"Your love life is quite complicated. What's so sudden about it? Isn't this the end of the story?"

Ruan Nuan was still hesitant, even though she was preparing to take wedding photos with Bo Junye.

"Bridesmaid, I want to grab the bridesmaid spot!"

Ruan Nuan smiled helplessly, "No need to fight, it's yours."

"Ahahaha, my Ruan Ruan is still the best!"

Jin Lin was busy with work, so Ruan Nuan selected the bridesmaid dresses and sent them to her, waiting for her to choose after work. Jin Lin had high requirements and was not satisfied with any of the dresses she had chosen. Ruan Nuan understood her and patiently accompanied her when she was choosing.

The phone suddenly rang and I looked to see who was calling.

It turned out to be the Business Saint.

Seeing that she was silent, Jin Lin called her in her ear, "Nuannuan! Why aren't you talking?"

"No, wait a moment."

Ruan Nuan had a hunch that Shang Sheng must have something important to tell her, so she cut off the call with Jin Lin and asked Shang Sheng what was the matter.

"Ruan Nuan, do you know where Jin Lin is? I haven't been able to contact her for a long time."

That's normal. Who would just stand there and wait for you?

Ruan Nuan complained in her heart and just told him a fact, "Jin Lin has a new relationship. I think she should have informed you before blocking you."

The business saint opposite was speechless and looked dejected.

"I have something else to do, so I won't talk about it for now."

If you take the wrong path, just return to the bridge and the road.

When people leave, you know how to cherish them; when love is gone, you know how to keep it.

If you can't even understand your own heart, who else can you expect to understand you?

Ruan Nuan sighed deeply. When she talked about this with Jin Lin, she remained silent for a long time. Finally, she just chuckled, "Perhaps today is the day he loves me the most in this life."

Ruan Nuan suddenly found it insightful.

Only when people feel the most regretful will they love the people or things they have abandoned the most.

Jin Lin wasn't sad either, but said calmly, "This is the first time he's called me in two weeks. Tell me, if you don't lose a man like this, why wait until the New Year?"

"That's true." Ruan Nuan agreed.

When Ruan Nuan and Bo Junye got engaged, Jin Lin came in her engagement dress. Besides her, Ruan Nuan's bridesmaids included Sister Jing and Aunt Wen's daughter.

At the engagement party, Ruan Ye came alone with a gloomy look on his face, which really spoiled the fun.

During this period, Ruan Ye went home only a few times.

Ruan Nuan had inquired about his and Bai Xulan's recent situation and heard that they argued frequently, and that it was definitely not as calm and composed as he appeared. Was Bai Xulan's true colors gradually showing? Ruan Ye was a long-term meal ticket, enough to support their entire family. As long as he was willing, Bai Xulan and her family would be safe and sound.

According to common sense, since the police have confirmed that Bai Xulan is the daughter of the criminal, Ruan Nuan is willing to help the police solve the case, but she is obstructed by Ruan Ye behind the scenes.

Ruan Nuan stopped investigating and told her parents about it. They would make their own judgment.

Since Ruan Nuan ignored Ruan Ye, he found Ruan Nuan alone at the engagement party to ask her questions.

"My parents stopped my card and my job."

Ruan Nuan covered her lips in surprise, "So scary?"

Ruan Ye felt that Ruan Nuan's expression did not seem like she was lying.

"But brother, you don't hold a nominal position in the company, and you don't ask my parents for money, so why are you afraid of having your card suspended?"

This means that Ruan Zhaohuang has no right to suspend this card because of the salary paid by Ruan Ye.

From another perspective, this means that the amount Ruan Ye spent on Bai Xulan has exceeded the limit of this money.

Thinking about it, Ruan Nuan patted her brother's shoulder and said, "You know, Mom and Dad are also worried that you will spend money recklessly. If it's not enough, you can think of other ways."

Ruan Ye took a deep breath and his face turned pale.

Ruan Nuan knew that he was now obsessed and would not give up until he reached the Yellow River.

She asked Ruan Ye a question, "Do you think Bai Xulan loves you?"

Ruan Ye didn't hesitate at all, "Of course, love."

Ruan Nuan smiled, "I bet I don't love you. But you can wait and let time prove which of us is telling the truth."

Halfway through the engagement ceremony, Bo Junye reminded Ruan Nuan, "Is your brother gone?"

Ruan Nuan frowned as soon as she turned around.

It turned out that Ruan Ye's seat was empty at this moment.

Even if the engagement wasn't important, his attitude of leaving without even saying goodbye was something that made her, as her own sister, feel extremely disgusted.

"We're getting married, and we won't invite him."

Bo Junye chuckled softly, "You two brothers and sisters are blood relatives, how can we not invite you?"

"Besides, he can't always be so stubborn."

Ruan Nuan sighed deeply.

When this matter was mentioned, even Ruan Zhaohuang and Zeng Rui were furious.

"Ruan Ye hasn't given us much trouble these years, let alone money. We've never been short of him. But Nuannuan, can you imagine? His family fortune has been nearly drained by that Miss Bai."

"It doesn't matter. Once she has no money, Bai Xulan will run away." Ruan Nuan had no expectations for the relationship between Bai Xulan and Ruan Ye.

I just hope my brother can wake up soon.

"We are also holding our breath now, hoping that Ruan Ye will not repeat the same mistake." Zeng Rui's words were full of worry that Ruan Ye would follow in Ruan Jue's footsteps.

Ruan Nuan: "Didn't big brother say he would come back?"

"I will definitely come back when you get married." Zeng Rui comforted Ruan Nuan.

Ruan Nuan's mind was full of asking Ruan Jue to persuade Ruan Ye, rather than simply asking Ruan Jue to attend her wedding banquet.
