Chapter 630: Shameless Old Man (Part 2)
The angry little girl pushed Xia Ying away, pulled Ruan Munan and walked away.
Xia Ying was scolded and almost pushed to the ground. The hypocrisy she had pretended with great difficulty finally broke.
She rushed forward and tried to grab Ruan Qi's clothes: "Stop! Who are you calling a mistress?!"
"Everyone knows who the mistress is, and the whole imperial capital knows!"
Ruan Qi slapped her hand away and said, "Except for Cheng Jinyan, there is no good person in your Cheng family! Don't touch me, it's dirty. I have to wash clothes when I get home!"
A Bugatti stopped near the back door of the venue at some point.
The car door opened, and the man inside just got out when he heard the little girl's fierce and childish yelling.
The corners of the man's lips curled up.
He straightened his clothes, pushed up his glasses, and walked over.
Xia Ying was completely enraged by Ruan Qi's words at this time.
She was not a kind person with a good temper. The reason why she greeted Ruan Qi with a smile was entirely for Ruan Munan and the Xi family. Otherwise, how could she take Ruan Qi, a little star, seriously?
But now Ruan Qi actually called her grandmother a mistress!
Ever since Xu Qingya's rise to power, old man Cheng Qi had dealt decisively with a large number of people who accused her of being a mistress. Since then, no one in the capital dared to bring up Xu Qingya's identity.
But now, Ruan Qi actually said it out loud!
Xu Qingya is a mistress, then what is Xia Ying?
The mistress's granddaughter?!
Rich families are most afraid of being unjust and unreasonable. Ruan Qi is stabbing Xia Ying in the heart.
Xia Ying was so angry that she raised her hand to slap Ruan Qi.
Ruan Munan's eyes turned cold, and he pulled Ruan Qi over and was about to reach out to block Xia Ying.
But someone was a step faster than him. A large hand, as strong as steel, gripped Xia Ying's wrist tightly, then swung it away violently.
Xia Ying was caught off guard, and the huge inertia made her take several steps back, almost falling to the ground.
The nobles and their men quickly supported her.
Xia Ying struggled to steady herself and screamed angrily, "Who dares to dump me—"
She cried out, looking up.
Then, the screaming stopped abruptly.
"Big brother?" Xia Ying's tone changed slightly.
Cheng Yan, who was standing aside watching the show, also changed her expression.
The two sisters were silent and looked at Cheng Jinyan, who appeared out of nowhere, with expressions of fear.
Cheng Jinyan glanced at Xia Ying indifferently, his silver-rimmed lenses gleaming coldly in the sunlight.
Xia Ying felt an inexplicable chill on her back.
Cheng Jinyan ignored her. He raised his hand to straighten his tie, then turned his head and looked at Ruan Qi, his eyes gradually softening.
"Ms. Ruan." Cheng Jinyan lowered his voice.
Ruan Qi didn't expect Cheng Jinyan to appear suddenly.
She poked her head out from behind Ruan Munan, blinked her peach blossom eyes in surprise, and tilted her head slightly: "Why are you here, Young Master Cheng? Are you here to watch your sister compete?"
Cheng Jinyan didn't say anything, just turned his head and glanced at Cheng Yan, with a hint of disgust on his expressionless handsome face.
Ruan Qi miraculously understood his expression and asked again, suppressing a smile, "So you came to see me?"
Cheng Jinyan then nodded and said "hmm".
"I came to see you," he paused, his eyes sweeping over Ruan Munan, "and your brother."
Ruan Qi looked surprised.
Cheng Jinyan and Ruan Munan have only met a few times, why is he looking for his brother?
Talk about business?
Ruan Qi turned to look at Ruan Munan, who shook his head secretly.
Seeing this, Ruan Qi frowned slightly and quickly thought about Cheng Jinyan's purpose.
Yun Qi and Cheng Jinyan's companies have no cooperation, and Cheng Jinyan is not familiar with his brother.
Then the only reason he came to look for them was...
Ruan Qi's heart trembled at the thought of that possibility. She raised her head suddenly and met Cheng Jinyan's indifferent yet clear eyes.
Those eyes seemed to see directly into her heart.
Ruan Qi clenched her hands subconsciously.
At this time, Xia Ying and Cheng Yan also came back to their senses.
Xia Ying held onto her arm, which had been hurt by Cheng Jinyan's grip, and angrily asked, "Brother, what do you mean? Are you helping outsiders bully my cousin?"
Cheng Jinyan glanced at her calmly, his tone calm and composed: "I have already left the Cheng family and am no longer your eldest brother. In terms of friendship, I am closer to Miss Ruan than to you."
"Brother!" Xia Ying was extremely angry.
Cheng Jinyan didn't want to pay attention to her. He asked Ruan Qi slowly, "Do you have time now? I want to talk to you and your sister."
Ruan Qi looked at Ruan Munan.
Ruan Munan glanced at Cheng Jinyan thoughtfully, hesitated for a moment, and nodded: "We are going to Penglai Pavilion. If Mr. Cheng doesn't mind, you can go with us."
Cheng Jinyan gladly accepted the invitation.
Xi Jiu and the others who were hiding in the car watched for a while, and when they saw Cheng Jinyan coming, they could no longer sit still and pushed the door open and got out of the car.
Xi Jiu, Bai Yuchen, and Gu Feiyang walked over to Ruan Qi. "What happened?"
Although he asked this, his eyes were already on Xia Ying.
Xia Ying felt a chill all over her body when she was looked at by him. Her anger was poured out as if by a basin of ice water, and even her pores were chilled.
Xia Ying dared to pester Ruan Munan and vent her dissatisfaction to Cheng Jinyan, but she did not dare to provoke Xi Jiu.
Cheng Yan was an idiot, but she wasn't stupid. A man like Xi Jiu was a beast who only knew how to plunder, devoid of emotion. Once you crossed his territory, you would be ruthlessly torn to pieces.
Xia Ying didn't dare to anger him, and took two steps back with a pale face.
Xi Jiu's dark and cold eyes swept over her, then looked at Cheng Jinyan.
Although Cheng Jinyan and Xi Jiu had not gotten along in the past, they were still able to get along in terms of face.
But ever since he learned about Ruan Qi's true origins, Cheng Jinyan has become increasingly displeased with Xi Jiu.
He didn't even have the chance to recognize the little sister who was raised by his second uncle and aunt before she was taken away by this old beast.
How can a 27-year-old man be so shameless as to covet a young girl who just turned 20?
The more Cheng Jinyan looked at Xi Jiu, the angrier he became, and a low pressure emanated from his whole body.
Xi Jiu keenly sensed his hostility and frowned slightly.
"What is Mr. Cheng doing here?"
"I'm here to find Xiaoqi." Cheng Jinyan replied, and the word "Xiaoqi" revealed a hint of intimacy.
Bai Yuchen, who was standing aside, had a strange look on his face.
He nudged Gu Feiyang and lowered his voice: "When did Cheng Jinyan and sister-in-law become so familiar? Isn't calling her that too affectionate?"
Gu Feiyang didn't say anything, and looked at Cheng Jinyan with a slightly cold gaze.
Bai Yuchen seemed to have thought of something at this time and couldn't help but exclaimed "Fuck".
"Could it be that Cheng Jinyan likes my sister-in-law?!"
Bai Yuchen's voice is not loud, but everyone has very good hearing.
In an instant, Ruan Munan, Xi Jiu, Cheng Jinyan all looked at him at the same time.
Bai Yuchen: "..."
Confused, weak and helpless.
Qin Qingdi rubbed her forehead with a headache. In order to prevent herself from losing her husband at a young age, she gritted her teeth and slapped Bai Yuchen on the head.
"What nonsense are you talking about! Come with me and get back in the car!"
Bai Yuchen was dragged away by Qin Qingdi by the ear.
Ruan Qi looked at Bai Yuchen's aggrieved back, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she explained to Xi Jiu: "Young Master Cheng wants to discuss something with my brother and me. Let's go to Penglai Pavilion first."
