Chapter 154 The Ruan Family’s Crisis
At least three times... at least three times... three times...
Ruan Qi was stunned for a second, then her face flushed red after she realized what was happening.
The scene of last night reappeared in her mind: the man's hot breath, his body covered in sweat, and his sexy, heavy breathing as he fell into lust.
It makes people feel weak all over.
Ruan Qi's face turned redder the more she thought about it, and she didn't even dare to look up at Xi Jiu. She stared at the WeChat chat interface, feeling the heat of her phone burning her hands.
"Xiaoqi, why is your face so red?" Grandma Ruan's voice sounded in my ears.
Ruan Qi was startled and quickly came back to her senses. She hurriedly turned off her phone and looked up to find that everyone was looking at her.
“…” The little girl’s face turned red as if it was about to burn.
She pretended to glance at Xi Jiu casually. Xi Jiu was sitting opposite her, his inky black eyes looking straight at her, with a deep and hot look in his eyes.
Ruan Qi was burned by such a naked look.
She quickly looked away, lowered her head, and wished she could bury her little head in the bowl of rice.
"No, I'm fine." The little girl said in a whisper, "I felt a little hot just now, but I'm fine now."
After saying that, she pretended to pat her burning cheeks and said to Baby Barley, "Barley, turn down the air conditioner by two degrees."
Barley Baby controlled the program on the display screen and adjusted the central air conditioning to 24 degrees.
"So it's hot." Old Mrs. Ruan breathed a sigh of relief. "It's the first day of the dog days now, and it's really easy to get heatstroke. Grandma will make you some mung bean water tonight. You used to love drinking this every summer when you were at home."
When Ruan Qi mentioned what happened in Qingyun Village, her panic dissipated a little. She smiled sweetly at Grandma Ruan and said, "Okay, I love drinking the mung bean water that Grandma cooks the most!"
Old Mrs. Ruan immediately smiled.
Ruan Fengmian and others looked at the grandparents and grandchildren, and their faces showed joy.
Ruan Munan picked up some food for his parents while speaking to the elders, "Xiao Qi originally planned to go home for a few days on the 20th, and the plane tickets were already booked, but I didn't expect you to come to the capital so suddenly. Dad, Mom, how long do you plan to stay this time?"
This question brought all conversations to a halt.
Ruan Qi put down her chopsticks, pursed her lips, and a hint of worry flashed across her eyes.
Because of the grudges and hatreds twenty years ago, those enemies have never given up hunting down Ruan Fengmian and Yang Liu. The couple has been sleeping on straw and eating bitter food, hiding their identities in Qingyun Village for twenty years, but today they swaggered to the imperial capital to celebrate Ruan Qi's birthday.
Moreover, Ruan Fengmian and his wife not only came to the imperial capital themselves, but also brought the two elders of the Ruan family with them.
If those enemies knew about the existence of the two elders... Ruan Qi tightened his grip, a solemn expression appearing on his face.
Ruan Munan, Xu Xiangyang and Nie Heng were also worried, fearing that their elders would be exposed to danger.
The atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly became gloomy.
Ruan Fengmian put down his chopsticks, glanced at the faces of the younger generation, and chuckled.
"You kids, you're not very old, but you have so many worries." He shook his head in amusement and said helplessly, "Didn't I tell you that those grudges are for adults? Just take care of yourselves and don't worry too much."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ruan Fengmian was glared at fiercely by his own daughter.
"How can I not worry?" The little girl's tone was soft but fierce. "I only have one father and one mother. What should I do if something happens to you?"
