Chapter 391 I Have You in My Heart (Part 1)
Xi Jiu naturally would not refuse the little girl's suggestion.
The two had a simple lunch, rested for a while, and then drove away from Yuyuan.
On the way to Yunqi Group, Ruan Qi was a little excited.
Because of the historical issues between Ruan Fengmian and Yang Liu, Ruan Munan and Ruan Qi rarely publicized their sibling relationship. Coupled with Ruan Qi's celebrity status, the siblings rarely even went shopping together.
Ruan Qi longed to walk in the sunshine with her brother, and even more so to pick up her brother from get off work in broad daylight.
"Once Mom and Dad deal with the Cheng family, my brother and I won't have to hide our relationship anymore." The little girl looked expectant.
Xi Jiu, who was driving, curled his lips and whispered, "It's okay to make your relationship public now. I won't let anything happen to you."
"I know," Ruan Qi looked at him with a smile, "of course I believe in your ability. But in the current situation, it's better to have less trouble than more. Besides, keeping my brother and my relationship secret will greatly benefit my parents."
Ruan Fengmian and Yang Liu were currently secretly attacking the Cheng family's assets. However, they both knew that the feud between the Ruan and Cheng families would eventually come to light.
The Cheng family was quite powerful, and Ruan Fengmian and Yang Liu were equally powerful. In a battle between two powerful forces, besides connections and financial resources, who had more hidden cards to hide also mattered.
Ruan Munan’s Yunqi Group is the Ruan family’s hidden trump card.
"Back then, my parents and my brother escaped death, and everyone in the capital thought they were dead. To protect my brother, my parents simply changed his household registration to someone else's name. Now my brother's household registration is in Uncle Wan's household registration book. Even if the Cheng family investigates, they can only find that my brother is Uncle Wan's son."
Xi Jiu: "Uncle Wan?"
"Yes, Uncle Wan's name is Wan Teng. He is my father's good brother and right-hand man. He also lives in Qingyun Village and came to visit me in the capital last year."
Xi Jiu didn't know much about Ruan Fengmian and Yang Liu's business, he only heard about the feud between them and the Cheng family from Ruan Qi.
But the name Wan Teng... he seemed to have heard it somewhere.
Xi Jiu thought for a while, but nothing came to mind. Then Ruan Qi spoke again.
"My brother's household registration is under Uncle Wan's name. As long as we don't make our relationship public, the Cheng family won't be able to find him. Even if someone sees us calling each other brother and sister, they can explain it as us being from the same village. So, my brother is our hidden weapon for now."
Since Ruan Munan returned to China, the focus of the Yunqi Group has gradually shifted from overseas to domestic. Although Yunqi has only been established in the imperial capital for a year, its influence and reputation abroad are not to be underestimated by any wealthy family.
Xu Xiangyang had joked before that if Ruan Munan had not returned to the imperial capital a year ago, there would probably be an additional Ruan family on the list of aristocratic families in the imperial capital.
However, although there is no wealthy family like the Ruan family now, Ruan Munan's financial resources have already attracted countless wealthy ladies.
When Ruan Qi thought of her brother's good luck with women, she couldn't help but feel a little headache.
She rubbed the tip of her nose, frowned, and said distressedly, "There are so many girls chasing after my brother, but he doesn't like any of them. I really don't know what kind of person he wants to find, Jiujiu. I'm so afraid that he will be single for the rest of his life."
Xi Jiu was amused by the little girl's worried tone.
Taking advantage of the red light, he raised his hand to rub her head, and said with a curled lip, "Baby, why are you more worried than your father-in-law and mother-in-law?"
"He's my brother, of course I have to worry about him." Ruan Qi pouted and whined, "I want him to find a sister-in-law to play with me sooner rather than later! It would be even better if he had a nephew!"
Xi Jiu didn't expect the little girl to think so far.
He smiled and shook his head, then asked a question, "If your brother gets married, he'll definitely focus more on the family. Then, he'll have less love and attention for you. Will the baby be unhappy?"
"Unhappy? How could I be unhappy?!"
The little girl looked puzzled. "My brother is getting married, so of course he has to focus on his family. My sister-in-law is the one who will accompany him for the rest of his life, so of course he has to love her the most."
Xi Jiu: "What about you?"
"Me?" Ruan Qi blinked, her tone matter-of-fact, "I'm in pain like you!"
“…”
Boss Xi, who had seen a lot of storms, was hit hard in the heart by the simple words of the little girl, and his blood tank was emptied instantly.
Ruan Qi didn't know that his words could have such great power.
She continued, "Grandpa loves grandma, dad loves mom, and brother loves his sister-in-law. Isn't this a very normal family relationship? I'm just my brother's sister, but I'm not his destiny. Decades later, when my brother falls ill, it's my sister-in-law and their children who take care of him by his bedside. So, I can't even curry favor with my sister-in-law, so why should I compete with her for her favor? What if I offend her and she pulls out my brother's oxygen tube in the future?"
Xi Jiu: "..."
The little girl's words sounded strange in every way, but when you think about it carefully, they seem to be perfectly logical.
Xi Jiu was silent for a moment and then smiled.
The little girl in his family is always like this, with the purest heart. No matter what happens, she always considers the people she cares about first, and then herself.
Xi Jiu felt that if Ruan Munan really found a wife with a bad temper in the future, there would be no possibility of any conflict between him and Ruan Qi.
Because no one can escape the unconscious tenderness of his little girl, and no one can refuse this pure sincerity.
Of course, if there really is such a person... Boss Xi curled his lips. He didn't mind helping Ruan Munan find a new wife.
…
Time passed quickly as Ruan Qi and Xi Jiu discussed Ruan Munan's lifelong event.
The black Maybach slowly stopped outside the Yunqi Group building. Ruan Qi took out the pass card Ruan Munan gave her and swiped it on the card reader.
The door opened immediately and Xi Jiu drove the car into the underground parking lot.
"Do you want to call your brother?"
"No, no." Ruan Xiaoqi shook his head and raised his phone with a smile, "I just sent a WeChat message to Secretary Xu, and he said that my brother is in the office now, so we can go over secretly."
After saying that, she put on a mask and a baseball cap, hunched over and got out of the car.
Xi Jiu looked at the sneaky figure of the little girl and felt a little helpless and a little funny.
But if his own baby wants to play, what can the big boss do?
Of course I pamper her.
So, Boss Xi, who was wearing a high-end suit, also put on a mask, then bent down with an expressionless face, and sneaked into the elevator with his wife.
…
Ruan Munan had already given Ruan Qi the company pass, so Ruan Qi took Xi Jiu directly into the company chairman's exclusive elevator.
The elevator quickly arrived at Ruan Munan's floor.
The elevator door opened with a ding, and Ruan Qi pulled Xi Jiu out. Just as she was about to say hello to the receptionist, a person holding a bouquet of flowers suddenly walked out of the employee elevator next to her.
