Chapter 288: Wen Lu gets slapped in the face (fourth update)
Nie Heng, who was eavesdropping on the guest room door, couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Brother Nan has a really vicious tongue," he said with a gloating tone, "I wish we could kill that Wen Lu!"
Wen Lu didn't expect Ruan Munan to speak like this in front of her, and she felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
She took a deep breath and picked up a few packaging bags at her feet.
"Xiao Qi, my mother was so angry about what happened that day that she said something without thinking. My grandfather has already scolded her. This is a small gift from our family, I hope you can accept it."
Ruan Qi raised her eyelids and glanced at the packaging bags.
They are all supplements, and there is also a bag. The price of this brand of bag should be around 50,000 yuan.
"It's just a small thing, and you call it an apology?" Bai Li couldn't help but complain in the system, "Even the sofa she's sitting on is more expensive than this bag! Isn't she said to be an upper-class pianist? Why is she so stingy?"
The little girl raised the corner of her mouth slightly.
She turned off her phone and looked up at Wen Lu.
"Sister Xiaolu," the little girl said slowly, "Are you here to apologize?"
Wen Lu tightened her grip on the bag and said with a forced smile, "Yes, your aunt..."
"Were you the one who scolded my parents?" Ruan Qi interrupted her and asked.
Wen Lu was stunned.
"No, it's not me..."
The little girl tilted her head and said with a smile, "Then why are you the one to apologize?"
Wen Lu was speechless after hearing her question.
"Xiao, Xiao Qi, my mother did do something wrong, but she is still your elder after all, you..."
"Elders?" the little girl interrupted her and chuckled softly, "When she scolded my parents, why didn't she remember that she was the elder?"
Wen Lu's face turned pale and blue when she was asked.
Ruan Qi continued, "And I heard from my brother that Third Grandpa wants my aunt to apologize in person. Why? Is she unable to get out of bed or walk?"
The three men hiding in the guest room all laughed.
Xi Jiu curled his lips and looked at the little girl sitting in the living room through the crack in the door.
The little girl looks delicate and soft, but when she gets angry, she is like a kitten with its fur standing on end. She won't stop until her little claws scratch people until they bleed.
Facing Ruan Qi's repeated questioning, Wen Lu felt as if she had been slapped a dozen times, and her face was burning.
At the same time, the anger in my heart was rising.
"Xiao Qi," she gritted her teeth and said stiffly, "I know you're angry. It was indeed my mother who spoke without thinking that day. But you shouldn't have beaten her like that, right? Intentional injury is illegal. This is because our family doesn't make a fuss. If it were someone else, they would file a lawsuit against you and your life would be ruined!"
"...Oh." The little girl yawned and said slowly, "Then go ahead and sue me."
“Ruan Qi!!!”
Wen Lu couldn't bear it any longer and stood up from the sofa.
"I came to see you with good intentions, so what's with your attitude?! My mom introduced you to Master Dong, and you pissed him off. What's the matter? Do you think the money Master Dong gave you can't buy a house in Yuyuan?!"
Ruan Munan's expression turned cold instantly.
"Miss Wen, what do you mean?"
"What do I mean?" Wen Lu sneered. "Let's just be frank. Your family's financial situation is well known to all the relatives of the Ruan family. Ruan Qi has only been in the capital for three months, and she's already living in the prime apartment complex in Yuyuan. Cousin Ruan, don't tell me she earned every penny of her own money to buy this house!"
Ruan Munan's handsome face was full of anger.
Wen Lu just thought that she had hit the nail on the head and became angry and embarrassed.
A hint of scorn appeared on the corner of her mouth. She put her hands in her coat pockets, raised her chin slightly, and looked at Ruan Qi as if she was looking at a piece of garbage.
"No wonder you repeatedly rejected Master Dong's advances. It turns out you already have a financial sponsor. You've risen to power at such a young age by selling your body. You've brought shame upon the Ruan family!"
Ruan Qi: “…”
Did this woman's brain circuitry originate from being bitten by fennel?
The little girl frowned and didn't want to talk to the fool.
But Wen Lu took this silence as a sign of guilt.
She laughed coldly.
"Did I get it right? Are you afraid to speak anymore? Cousin Ruan," she looked at Ruan Munan, "you said before that you wouldn't dare to have relatives like us. Now I'm saying it back to you. With our family tradition, we wouldn't dare have shameless relatives like you!"
As soon as the words fell, a biting chill rushed from Wen Lu's back to her head.
She shuddered all over and looked at Ruan Munan in horror.
Ruan Munan slowly stood up, a frost covering his jade-like face. He raised his foot and walked towards her step by step, his fierce aura making people tremble.
Wen Lu's face turned pale and she kept backing away.
With a bang, her back hit the shelf and she had no way to retreat.
"You, don't come over here..."
Ruan Munan's lips curled up into a frightening sneer.
Wen Lu was shaking all over.
suddenly--
Ding Dong! ~
The doorbell rang in the entrance hall.
Ruan Munan paused and frowned slightly.
Nie Heng in the guest room quickly opened the door, "I'll go open it!"
He ran to the entrance and pressed the doorbell.
"Who is it?"
"Excuse me, is this Miss Ruan Qiruan's home?" A man's voice came from the video doorbell.
The little girl sitting on the sofa blinked.
Looking for her?
The little girl nodded at Nie Heng, who pressed the unlock button and then opened the door.
Outside the door was a white-haired old man sitting in a wheelchair.
Behind him stood a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man saw Nie Heng and nodded with a smile: "Hello, young man. We are looking for Miss Ruan Qi."
"...Oh oh." Nie Heng stepped aside to make way, "Please come in, both of you."
The middle-aged man thanked me and walked in pushing his wheelchair.
Seeing him about to take off his shoes, Nie Heng quickly waved his hand and said, "No need to change your shoes. We need to do some cleaning tonight. Um... both of you, follow me into the house."
The middle-aged man politely said "OK", then pushed the old man and followed Nie Heng into the living room.
The white-haired old man in the wheelchair saw Ruan Qi sitting on the sofa at a glance.
His eyes lit up, "Miss Ruan!"
The little girl looked at him blankly, "Excuse me, who are you..."
"Ms. Ruan, do you still remember me?" the middle-aged man greeted her and asked with a smile.
Ruan Qi stared at him for a while, and suddenly exclaimed "Ah" in surprise.
Isn't this the son of the unconscious old man she rescued when she and Mr. Xi were out having soy sauce on the day they moved to Yuyuan?!
"I remember you!" the little girl said happily, "Uncle, you cried so hard at that time, I remember! ~"
The middle-aged man smiled awkwardly and was about to speak——
"Mr. Elder?!" A female voice suddenly interrupted him.
Several people in the living room turned their heads and looked at Wen Lu.
Wen Lu's facial expression was a little out of control. She looked at the white-haired old man sitting in the wheelchair in shock and exclaimed in disbelief: "Are you the piano master Yuan Shurong?!"
