Chapter 131 Encouragement

Li Anze looked at her with complicated eyes and remained silent for a long time.

"I really didn't hear anything. Otherwise, you can just ask Brother Li and tell him that I was in the room at the time."

An Ze smiled. She knew clearly that she would not say it.

An Ze looked at the intersection where Chen Guochang disappeared, with worry in his eyes.

"Money can move people's hearts. Fame, fortune and wealth can do great harm to people. Brother Guochang has always been an upright and honest person. Once he makes a mistake, there is no turning back."

“No matter how thick the fog is, it will disappear into thin air under the sunlight. What is fake is fake and can never be real.”

An Ze sighed a little: "To be honest, it was Brother Guochang's uncle who harmed him. At the beginning, his uncle just wanted something and asked him to steal it. But once this happened, it happened again. The greed is insatiable."

Du Ruo touched the teacup, thoughtfully.

"I heard that there is also the Qu Group involved?"

"Businessmen value profit. Let's not talk about this anymore. Are you healed?"

"Didn't you know this a long time ago?"

"That's good. The house you asked me to look at last time has been found. It's at No. 22 Wutong Road. It's a coincidence. An old friend of mine is moving his family to China and doesn't plan to come back. He wants to sell all his properties in the Mainland, including this house. What do you think? Do you want to go take a look?"

"Okay, but I wonder how the house is being cleaned up? I don't have much time to spare right now, so it would be better if I could move in soon."

"That's no problem. This house is well-equipped. It was originally occupied by his parents, but later they went abroad and it has been empty ever since. If you buy it, you can just clean it up a bit and live in it."

"That's great, let's go look at houses together tomorrow?"

"Okay, I'll pick you up at Yiyuan tomorrow."

There was a big banquet at home and An Ze was the host. He sat for a short while before leaving in a hurry.

Because of what happened just now, Du Ruo felt uneasy staying here, so she stood up and wanted to go forward. She saw Mr. Chen walking towards her.

Old Master Chen raised his hand and motioned Du Ruo to sit down. He came to find Du Ruo specially. He had just wanted Du Ruo to go to the Chen family to talk, but was rejected by Yuan Tingchuan. The Chen family was in trouble, so he had to give in and say a few words in the quiet place of the Li family.

"I won't say much. There is a saying that blood is thicker than water, and blood ties cannot be cut. The Chen family is in trouble now, and I hope you can lend a hand. Of course, you are also a child of the family, and your share of things cannot be left out."

"I don't understand what the old man is talking about. What happened to the Chen family?"

"You don't have to play dumb. You set up a trap for the Chenghua Doucai porcelain, didn't you? This kills two birds with one stone. You can tell the museum openly that they lost something, and you can get away with it cleanly. You also got the item cleanly. The reputation of Mr. Yuan in this port city is well deserved."

Du Ruo remained silent.

Old Chen said earnestly, "Being his woman is stressful, isn't it? Yuan Tingchuan is a rare talent, but as the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. You, you naturally have nothing to worry about now, but as the saying goes, beauty fades and love fades, and flowers do not last forever. If you become a daughter of the Chen family, it will be different. You will no longer be a rootless duckweed. The Yuan family will have to think twice before they want to make a move on you. Do you think about it?"

Are you considering becoming a daughter of the Chen family? Are you going to sink with your family?

Seeing Du Ruo lowering his head and keeping silent, Mr. Chen said no more and stood up and left.

Du Ruo looked at the old man's back with amusement. The last time she went there, nothing happened to the Chen family. The old man treated her coldly, with a look on his face that said, "Don't bother with me."

Now the higher-ups want to thoroughly investigate Chen Guochang. This old man thought that she was favored by Yuan Tingchuan, so he came back to her. This old man Chen and her biological mother are indeed father and daughter. They look exactly the same, which makes one sigh at the power of genes.

Du Ruo touched her chin and thought of Ling Yun’s words. Could it be that she also had this hidden attribute?

After dinner in the evening, Yuan Tingchuan sat in the living room reading documents. He had not been to the study recently, so after dinner he sat with Du Ruo in the living room. Of course, Du Ruo was idle while he was working.

Yuan Tingchuan held the documents in one hand and put his other hand around Du Ruo's waist. He casually patted her waist, signaling her to be quiet.

Are you using yourself as a mascot?

Du Ruo reached out and pulled the man's belt buckle, her fingers stroked the edge of the man's belt, and through his shirt she stroked the man's belly, which was free of a trace of fat.

Feels good.

Yuan Tingchuan felt a tingling sensation on his spine as her slender fingers caressed him. He threw the document aside and gently lifted Du Ruo's chin with his thin and slender fingers, stroking it gently. He pressed her halfway on the sofa and said in a dark and dragging tone, "Missed me? Huh?"

His lips moved lightly on Du Ruo's cheek, his hot breath sprayed lightly on Du Ruo's face, and his other arm was tightly around her waist, strong and possessive.

Du Ruo tilted her head slightly and took the initiative to kiss the man's cheek. She stroked his neck with her slender white fingers and said vaguely, "A little bit."

A single spark can start a prairie fire. The waves in the air were terribly hot.

Since the last time the two of them "met each other frankly", they have become more serious about this relationship. After going around in circles for half a year, they have uncovered the halo around each other and have gradually become closer.

To put it in a more vulgar way, after they stopped pretending, the two of them started to act like "good brothers". When Yuan Tingchuan was angry, he would curse other people's ancestors in front of Du Ruo, and his tongue was so sharp that it was hated by both humans and gods.

Du Ruo's simple and elegant demeanor has long been thrown to Java. She is so vulgar that she cannot be more vulgar. She only asks for money and acts like a profiteer who says, "What does your life or death have to do with me?"

Strangely, the two people get along very well, "share the same interests" and "met too late".

Ling Yun is indeed the person who knows them best. They really look like a couple, made for each other.

In the morning, Du Ruo pushed the door open and walked directly into Yuan Tingchuan's bedroom. Mr. Yuan rolled over on the bed, curled up the quilt, and fell asleep again.

Du Ruo stretched out her hand and pinched the man's face, rubbing it for a while, meeting the man's fiery gaze, she withdrew her hand, patted the dust off her hands, and rubbed it with a look of disgust. He hasn't even washed his face, it's so dirty.

Yuan Tingchuan gritted his teeth and said, "You had a lot of close contact with my face last night, didn't you? As soon as the sun came out, you turned your face away and didn't recognize me?"

"Didn't you just wash your face yesterday? Did you wash it this morning?" Du Ruo asked righteously.

Yuan Tingchuan rubbed his hair with his hands: "What are you doing? Why are you bothering me so early in the morning?"

"I'm going to look at a house with Anze. Please keep an eye on the kids."
