Chapter 280: Forced into a Blind Date (Part 4)
When Ruan Qi saw this text message, her eyebrows slightly frowned.
She called her third grandfather.
The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.
The little girl looked puzzled.
Ruan Munan noticed that she looked strange, so he asked, "What's wrong?"
Ruan Qi pointed at the phone screen and said, "Third Grandpa told me to go directly to the VIP building and not go home. But I called him, but no one answered."
Ruan Munan took the phone and looked at the text message, frowning slightly.
The VIP building was a well-known high-end hotel in the capital, with very high prices. Even if Ruan Chunhua had a little money, Third Uncle was notoriously frugal and would never take Xiao Qi to a place like that for dinner.
Something is not right.
Ruan Munan returned the phone to Ruan Qi, stood up and walked to the entrance to take off his coat.
“Brother, you…”
"I'll take you there." Ruan Munan put on his coat and waved to the little girl, "Come on, let's go."
…
Guibinlou Hotel is located next to the central business district of the imperial capital.
Although it wasn't dinner time, the hotel was filled with luxury cars. Ruan Munan handed the car keys to the waiter and walked into the lobby with his arm around Ruan Qi's shoulder.
The two asked about the location of the box and then took the elevator directly to the fifth floor.
The elevator door dinged open, and the corridor was decorated in an antique style, filled with the smell of money.
Ruan Munan's doubts grew more and more serious.
He took the little girl and walked all the way to the agreed box, then raised his hand and knocked on the door.
Soon, footsteps were heard from inside the door, and then the door was opened.
"Oh, it's Xiao Qi..."
Ruan Chunhua's laughing voice suddenly stopped. She looked at Ruan Munan outside the door, with a look of surprise and panic on her face.
Ruan Munan's face darkened.
At this time, a man's voice came from the box.
"Manager Ruan, is your niece here?"
When Ruan Munan heard this unfamiliar voice, his eyes slowly narrowed.
"Oh, isn't this Mu Nan?!" Ruan Chunhua quickly revealed the kindness of an elder. She smiled and said, "You've grown so much! It's been years since we last met. Come on, come in!"
Ruan Munan glanced at her indifferently, smiled, and pulled Ruan Qi to follow her into the box.
The private room was large, with two men sitting at the round dining table. One was Ruan Chunhua's husband, Lü Wenfeng, and the other looked to be in his mid-twenties, dressed in a stylish suit. He was good-looking, but his face looked hollowed out.
Ruan Qi first called out "Uncle-in-law", then his eyes swept across the young man's face and he looked at Ruan Chunhua with a frown.
"Aunt, where is Third Grandpa?"
Ruan Chunhua's smile froze for a moment.
She pretended to be calm and said, "Your third grandfather is still on the road. You know the traffic in the imperial capital is terrible. There are traffic jams every day."
"Xiao Qi, please sit down for a while. Your Third Grandfather will be here soon."
As Ruan Chunhua spoke, he pulled out the chair next to the young man, grabbed Ruan Qi's wrist and pulled him over there.
The little girl felt a little pain from being grabbed by her and let out a soft hiss.
Ruan Munan's face suddenly darkened, and he grabbed Ruan Chunhua's wrist and squeezed it hard.
Ruan Chunhua cried out in pain and quickly let go of his hand.
Ruan Chunhua's husband Lu Wenfeng quickly stood up: "Mu Nan, what are you doing?!"
Ruan Munan didn't say anything. He rolled up Ruan Qi's sleeves. The little girl's skin was white and transparent, and the large circle of red marks on her wrist was shocking!
Ruan Chunhua and Lu Wenfeng didn't expect Ruan Qi to be so weak, and their expressions changed.
However, the young man sitting next to her looked at the girl's fair and attractive skin, with a gleam in his eyes.
Ruan Munan's face was frighteningly cold.
He let go of Ruan Qi's hand and stared at Ruan Chunhua expressionlessly.
Ruan Chunhua couldn't help but shudder.
She hadn't seen this nephew for more than ten years. Wasn't he from the countryside? How could he have such a terrifying aura?
At this time, Ruan Qi took out his cell phone and made a call.
The phone beeped, and then a cell phone ring rang in the box.
Ruan Chunhua's face changed and he reached out to take the bag on the table.
But Ruan Qi was faster than her. She snatched the bag and took out an old phone from it!
The caller ID on the old man’s phone showed her name!
"Why is Third Grandpa's cell phone here with you?!" the little girl asked angrily.
Ruan Chunhua's eyes flickered. She looked at the phone in Ruan Qi's hand and laughed dryly.
"Your third uncle's phone broke last night, so I helped him fix it..."
Ruan Qi: "So, the text message you sent me an hour ago was from you?"
Ruan Chunhua stammered and was unable to speak.
The little girl frowned and asked fiercely, "Where is Third Grandpa? Does he know I'm coming to the VIP building?"
Ruan Chunhua looked away guiltily.
Ruan Munan narrowed his eyes and asked coldly, "Aunt, Third Grandpa's phone... you didn't steal it, did you?"
Ruan Chunhua's expression suddenly changed.
At this point, Ruan Qi and Ruan Munan had nothing to understand.
Ruan Chunhua deliberately told his third grandfather Ruan Zhen the news of Ruan Qi's car accident. Ruan Zhen was worried about his niece, so he invited the little girl to his home to see her in person.
Ruan Chunhua took advantage of this opportunity, stole Ruan Zhen's mobile phone, sent a message to the girl in his name, and lured her to the VIP building.
But man proposes, God disposes. Ruan Munan was so eager to protect his sister that he actually followed.
Feeling the cold gazes from the Ruan siblings, Ruan Chunhua smiled guiltily and said, "Isn't it for the good of you and your sister that I do all this? Xiao Qi just came to the capital, and Mu Nan just returned. I also want to introduce you to the connections in the capital."
Ruan Qi stared at her expressionlessly for a few seconds, then smiled softly.
"That must be really hard, little auntie."
Ruan Chunhua felt uneasy when she laughed at him.
The little girl raised her eyebrows slightly and asked innocently, "I wonder who my aunt is going to introduce me to?"
When this was mentioned, Ruan Chunhua's eyes lit up and the guilty feeling he had just felt disappeared.
She hurried over to the young man.
"Xiao Qi, Mu Nan, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Dong Qicheng, the young master of Fengyu Group."
Dong Qicheng stood up and straightened his suit like a gentleman.
"Ms. Ruan," he walked up to her and extended his hand, "My name is Dong Qicheng, the youngest son of the chairman of Fengyu Group."
Ruan Qi looked at him and said nothing.
Dong Qicheng laughed and said, "Miss Ruan is quite a character. Why don't we sit down and talk?"
As he spoke, he raised his arm and reached out to put his hand on the little girl's shoulder.
Ruan Munan was quick and pulled the little girl over.
Dong Qicheng's hand hit nothing.
His expression froze for a moment, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared.
"Mr. Ruan," he said with a dangerous look in his eyes, "someone named Dong thinks your sister is nice and wants to make friends. What? You won't even give me a little bit of face?"
