Night Rose (Part 2) Ruan Lan smiled with her red lips, and without changing her mouth shape, she whispered in Ruan Mei's ear: "Didn't I tell you not to show your tattoo?"
"Ah? Is there such a thing? Sorry, my memory has been bad recently and I forgot about it." Ruan Meixu hugged her sister and whispered in her ear.
People who don’t know the situation might think that these two sisters hugging each other have a good relationship.
"Mom will be angry again soon." The dazzling diamond ring on her ring finger scraped against the red dress.
"She's been angry for so many years, so a little while won't hurt."
Ruan Mei stood up straight and raised her hand to help her adjust the slightly shifted ruffled lace collar of her white wedding dress. "It seems that Sister has been living a comfortable life lately?"
Ruan Lan's smile froze. She had indeed gained some weight recently.
She glanced at the man with thick eyebrows and big eyes behind Ruan Mei and chuckled softly, "Why didn't you tell me in advance that you brought your boyfriend back?"
Ruan Mei smiled and said, "Does it matter whether I tell you or not? I'm just here to go through the motions."
The two sisters had smiles on their faces, but what they said was so quiet that only the two men standing next to them could hear it.
Hearing that every word Ruan Mei said was like a rose with thorns, Chen Shanye felt a little relieved.
He was afraid that this little coward who only armed himself with appearance would be bullied, or he was just overthinking it.
"Okay, you two sisters, don't quarrel as soon as you meet."
Fang Mingjun mediated and smiled at Ruan Mei, "Ruan Mei, long time no see."
He didn't get any response at all, and there seemed to be a crack on his handsome face.
"Come on, guests, take a picture with the bride and groom!" It turned out to be the wedding photographer who came to the rescue.
Ruan Mei stood next to Ruan Lan, and Chen Shanye stood close to her. The photographer shouted "Smile". The combination of handsome men and beautiful women was pleasing to the eye, and he took several photos in a row.
Who can know what the person with a smile on his face in the photo is thinking?
"Ruan Mei, come with me."
Ruan Mei turned her head and saw the graceful Lin Bina, whose hands, clad in jade bracelets, were lightly folded in front of her belly.
She looked up and saw Chen Shanye looking down at her.
"Would you like me to go with you?"
"No need, wait for me here, I'll be back after talking to her for a few minutes."
"good."
Ruan Mei followed Lin Bina away. Chen Shanye looked at their backs, walked outside the crowd and found a marble pillar to lean against. He was taller than many guests and could look over their heads to see the newlyweds in gorgeous wedding dresses.
At that time, Ruan Mei said, "But I don't mind being a bridesmaid. I feel sick the moment I see that man."
Originally, Chen Shanye suspected Ruan Mei's father, but when he heard her indifferent tone towards her father in the room in the morning, the only suspect left was her brother-in-law.
The way the groom looked at his woman just now was not at all pleasant.
Chen Shanye narrowed his eyes and stared at the man with a smile on his face.
hypocritical.

The heavy door barely blocked out the light from the corridor. This was a small banquet hall that had not been booked tonight. Only a few dim wall lamps were on, and the short-pile carpet absorbed the footsteps of the two people.
"What are you thinking? Ruan Lan didn't tell you my request, even though you knew I hated your tattoo the most?"
Lin Bina went straight to the point and took off the smiling mask when facing others. Her voice was a little hoarse from constantly greeting guests today.
"My tattoo is more than the only thing you don't like?"
Ruan Mei lowered her head and played with her nails. "You don't like anything I do. Just don't let me come back. Our relatives know about our family anyway. What's wrong with them gossiping? It won't hurt anything..."
Sensing her mother's anger ignited by the sound of a click, Ruan Mei raised her eyes and looked directly at her, her red lips curled up: "Don't do it here, I'm no longer the little girl who stood there obediently and let you vent your anger and scold me."
"You're so rebellious! Is this how you treat your mother?!"
Ruan Mei looked at the angry woman calmly and wondered how many silver hairs her mother would have if she hadn't dyed her hair black.
She walked towards Lin Bina step by step, her red sheepskin shoes stepping lightly on the ground without leaving any sound: "I'm serious. If you make a move here, I will resist..."
In fact, Lin Bina had felt for a long time that she could no longer suppress Ruan Mei. She was young, arrogant, dazzling and eye-catching. She was no longer a cowardly doll that could be controlled by her.
In the past, she regarded Ruan Mei as transparent, but now, Ruan Mei no longer sees her.
Her dry throat felt like it was on fire, and she swallowed to ease the pain, but it was no use.
She is indeed old, and every white hair and every wrinkle can make her lose sleep all night.
Every time Ruan Mei took a step forward, she took a step back.
The glittering crystal chandelier reflected the two people facing each other below. A calm voice lingered in the empty banquet hall: "Many of the guests here today are leaders and colleagues from your school, right? It would be embarrassing if either of us got bruised..."
"...Ruan Mei, you dare?!" The old lioness could only roar like a broken gong, thinking that she could stop the little lion from moving forward.
Ruan Mei took two quick steps and suddenly forced herself in front of Lin Bina. She lowered her eyes slightly and looked into the eyes that looked somewhat similar to hers. She said in a cold voice: "If you dare, I dare."
Ruan Mei hooked the jade chain around Lin Bina's neck with her index finger and weighed the heavy emerald green pendant between her fingers. She sneered: "Such a beautiful chain, don't break it for me later, it will be too ugly..."
"You...you!..." Lin Bina's breathing was rapid, and her expression was out of control again. There was a hint of hysteria in her roar: "Do you still think I'm your mother?!"
She raised her hand high, but failed to bring it down. Ruan Mei seemed to have predicted how she was going to do it, and instinctively raised her hand to tightly hold Lin Bina's wrist.
Ruan Mei sighed inwardly. Lin Bina has actually been standing still all these years. Look, even the way she slaps others remains the same.
"Let go!! You're rebelling... Ruan Mei, you're really rebelling..."
Lin Bina was so angry that her face flushed red, and her thin cheeks made her cheekbones look particularly hideous. She pulled her hands to break free from Ruan Mei's control. The black shadow was like a ghost with bared fangs and claws in the dim light, and the jade bracelet on her raised wrist flashed a cold light.
"Mom." Ruan Mei called her for the first time tonight.
She had thought she would be emotional, hysterical, and yelling.
But no, she just calmly stated a fact that should have been said a long time ago.
"Ever since Fang Mingjun molested me and I asked you for help, but you didn't believe me, I've given up on that idea, do you know that?"
